Santiago de Cuba, Sept. 6. - Two hundred Cubans from General Cebreco's camp in the hílls near Cebre, this province, have come to the city, surrendered their arms and asked for rations. General Lawton took the arms and put them to work on the water front to earn their rations. The Cubana say their forces in Santiago province are sufíering for want of food and are on the point of breaking out. They have no provisions and cannot get forage. General Lawton has replied that he will ration all men who will come to town, give up their arms and work for their food, but that he will not supply any men who persist in keeping arms and skulking in the hills when they ought to be on the plantations helping to make harvest. He be■ieves it will not be long before most Cubans have given up their flght for rfcognftion and have returned to their homes.
