The Havana correspondent of the New York Times states that the destroyer Hamilton was en route to Cayo Mambi, on the north coast of Cuba, to-day to protect 10 American and six British subjects who are held prisoner by workers who have seized an American-owned sugar mill. The workers struck for higher, wages, and when they were refused they, resorted to violence. American officials are negotiating for the removal of women and children. They said they would not land sailors unless it was absolutely necessary. The British people are from Jamaica.
