Oct. publication of the amnesty procUu nation put an official end to tbo exlatena, of tbo 'insurrection-axy foreea and signified the acceptance by the Provisional Government of the fiction of disarmament as a fact It has now developed that In the entire disarmament of the 13,000 or more insurgents something- more than 8,000 weapons called rlflea by the Insursenta were turned In.

It la not supposed that the entire force of the rebela waa armed with guns, and the number of rlflea turned In mar there-, fore prove to be something- higher than the 20 per ont The percentage of dlsbandment la much larger, approximately four-nfths ot the Insurgent bands having actually returned to their homes. It la not expected that the men who have been enjoying- them-aelvea In the field will at once be willing to go back to their farm labor and settle down to the quiet life again. In fact. several towns show evidence of their pres ence in considerable numbers, and therein some little danger of friction hereafter. It baa already approached the danger point on one or two occasions, but swift workwon the part of the Americana baa prevented any outbreak so far.

At the same time that the Insurgent forces have been thus treated most of the militia has been disarmed and disbanded. The friction here la not Quite so great aa with the Insurgents. It Is the official understanding that aU the militia have turned In their guns and returned to their homes. But, as a matter of fact, there have been several devices employed to defeat this purpose of the Pro-vlalonal Government The one most favored is the dismissal of the men as militia and their immediate re-employment in the police of the vicinity where they were disbanded, coupled with the reissue to them of the arma-Just taken away from them aa militiamen. -No one is fooled by this performance, leaat of all the rebel leaders, but It tufts the purpose of the Government to wink at it In the effort to bring" about a condition which will conduce to the disappearance of open hostility and put-every troublemaker hereafter under the ban of the law.

The Rurales are expected to do the rest. 'Why Gen. Funstbn Was Recalled. Coupled with the completion in this fashion of the first step in the problem of pacification comes the announcement that Gen. Funston la going back to resume the command of his department in the states.

Zn a formal statement issued ty the Provisional Government yesterday afternoon It waa said that the work, of the Peace Commission having been fin ished. Gen. Funston, who bad come down to Havana as one of the Commissioners, was to return on the Louisiana with Secretariea Taft and Bacon. There is more to It than that Gen. Fun ston waa summoned from American.

Lake because of his "familiarity with Cuban methods of flghyng and his acquaintance with some of the Cuban leaders. Secre tary Taft expected that he' would be of great service, and aaid yesterday afternoon that hie expectation had been fully realised. But the peculiar equipment of Gen. Funston for Cuban service would have proved of much greater value if It had been necessary to resort to the use of force and fight the guerrillas in the bush. Funston.

In fact, waa expected to command the troops in "case of such an emergency, and for that purpose was formally assigned to the command of the first expedition. But the Immediate probability of any such service having disappeared, it waa not necessary to retain two Generals here. and Gen. Bell, having been summoned by Secretary Taft because his experience would aid In the settlement of the differ ent problems which have since arisen. Gen.

Funston is sent back to his command, At first Secretary Taft thought there would be enough American troops brought to Cuba to maintain small gar risons au over me lsiana. ana at the same time have a brigade post in Havana, which was to have been commanded by Gun. Funston. But the bria-ade toat Idea has been abandoned, and the command of the garrisons of the scattered, posts will aevoive upon ucn, oeu. Problem of the Officers.

In other words, the military problem that at one time seemed to face the Gov crnment of intervention has now become so simplified as practically to have disap peared, so far as fighting Is concerned. and the problems that Gov. Ma goon will have to face are of a different nature. There looms np at the very first one that will tax his patience and his skill In diplomacy. That is the question of municipal and provincial offices.

And thereupon the army officers besan to grin, for the Navy bad studiously refralbea from attempting the entrance at night. To be sure, there Is a harbor regulation that forbids It and the Navy draws itself up and sternly remarks that It is not in the habit of violating the As for Us ability to come Into the harbor, day or night, light or dark, there 1ft no question about it and can be none. But still the Army grins and softly remarks that the Sumner did come in. it wa nearly llp'clock when the transport ceaaed to move, and very soon afterward Major Baker, the Chief Quartermaster of the expeditionary force, was alongside in a steam launch. His first question was for the Quartermaster of the transport.

Cowles First to. Land Again. Major Baker told who commanded the men on the Sumner, that early this morning the ship would be brought alongside the Havana Central pier and unloaded. Special street cars would be ready to take the men direct to their place at Camp Columbia, with other cars ready for their' baggage and camp equipment. Everything was to be ready so that the men could get their noon-day meal' in their own camp and sleep to-night in their own cots under their own canvas.

Then the Maior congratulated the Colonel on being again the first commanding officer of troops to march into Havana for an American occupation. CoL Cowles was the Lieutenant Colonel of a North Carolina Regiment during the war with Spain. His regiment was chosen for garrison duty here, but it arrived in tne harbor several days after the 202d New York. The New Yorkers had been lying on their transport vigorously discussing tne perplexing question oi wnetner tney wanted to march through Havana, yellow-fever stricken, and occupied by Spanish troops, or not.

Tne question now is no long will this state of affairs continue. Among the Americans resident in Havana, who know the people from experience- and observation, there are two opinions.

One is tliat a short time will smooth awsy all the friction. The other Is that as time goes on and the Liberals see the old Moderate officials maintained In power their anger will rise and that it will be but a short time before they begin to take to the bush again. The Llb-erala undoubtedly feel that they have won their revolution, and that the mere ejection of Palma and bis Cabinet from their offices In Havana does not fulfill all their desires. They want a clean sweep, and they believe that to the victors belong the spotla The men In the field have no conception of what. they were there for, as a rule.

They know only that they were out with their leaders, because their leaders told them to come out. Whenever the lenders tell them to come out ap-ln they will respond Just as readily. They won before, they know that, because they ran now eome into the towns wearing their machetes and ride about, cheering and having a fine old time.
