SICKENING — STORIES CHOPPED UP A CHILD Specimen Spanish Outrages in the Island of Cuba. CF HCRROR Weyler's Instruments Carrying Out His Secret Orders. A REIGN OF MURDER ‘The Cuban representatives in Was ton have received from trusted sources in the island a detailed report of the outrages that have been committed by the Spanish soldiers since Gen. Weyler has become con- vineed that President Cleveland does not nicnd to interfere In the present war or extend to the Cubans the recognition of their rights as belligerents which Congress recommended should be done. The letter containing the statement of the appalling brutality practiced by the Spanish soldiery also effectually Cisproves the assertions re- cently made that many Cubans were laying down their arms and recelving amnesty ender the terms of Weyler’s recent procla- mations. On the other hand, the encour- aging information is sent that the new ermy of invasion which has been in course of organization for the past three months is rapidly pushing westward and will reach Matanzas about the middle of May. The detailed account cf recent Spanish outrages is a terrible indictment, as a perusal of its twenty counts will show. Chopped a Child to Pieces. It is as follows: “The column of the Spanish Colonel Ricardo Vicuna, shot, in the village of Corral Faiso, province of Matanzas, Don Jose Rogue (not the insur- sent officer of that name) because he would or could not tell him where a wounded in- surgent was hidden, whom Vicuna wished to kill. “A week ago Gen. Jose Maria Aquirre routed the infamous Spanish general, Mel- quizo (the assassin of Delgado). and as a revenge for his defeat at Melquizo ordered twelve defenseless men to be shot at the plantation of Rafael Fernandez de Castro. A child of thirteen years of age escaped, but was followed by a sergeant of the guerrilla. Finding himself so closely pur- sued, the boy defended himself by throw ing a stone, which struck the eye of the soldier, and such was the pain inflicted that he fell from his horse. At that same mo- ment three other guerrillas arrived at th Spot, actually making mince meat of that unfortunate boy with their machetes, _ “The sergeant is in the hospital and will jose the eye. The explanation he gives for the loss is that he was hurt by a wire ence. Details of Delgado's Treatment. “You may have read the case of Delgado, but you are probably ignorant of detai The column of the sanguinary and coward- ly Melguizo arrived at the plantation of Delgado, in Bainoa. They took him ovt of his house, together with seven other men. When Melguizo found out that Delgado was an At an citizen he slapped his face several times, althcugh his arms were bound behind his back. Immediately a Voliey was fired at them. When they fell to the ground another volley was tired. Thinking they were dead, they searched their pockets, end not & that Delgado’s pulse beat, they struck him twice with their machetes, once on the head and once on the neck. Of the eight men, six were killed. Of the two who escaped, Delgado is one, but he is not able to use his lexs. The other one has had an arm amputate It would be an excellent idea to have D gado taken to the United States to give an idea of the state to which he has been re- duced by those whose victories are only on paper. Marder and Robbery. “The mayor of Cerral Falso, province of Matanzas, Antonio Rodriguez de Rivera, with the aid of his bravos, Marcos Diaz, Santiago Sosa and Francisco Hermano, violently tock out of their houses at night Don Leon Brabo, Jose Aguston Alonso, Don Celestino Armas and a colored man seventy years old, called Catin, and in the cruekst minner killed them, throwing their corpses into a sugar cane field on the plan- tation ‘Sta Felomena’ of Leandro Soler. “Lieuts. Antonio Fernandez Bonilla and Luciano Cassio, with their guerrillas, killed scme defenseless men with the avowed object of robbing them of 350 head of cat- tle, which they afterward sold. This decd raised such scandal that the governor of Matanzas, Porset, denounced these two men to the military authorities, but they are still at their ports at the head of their forces and continue their murders and rob- beries. “Luciano Cassio is well known a ga horse tHef, having often been before the author- ities In Matanzas for crimes of this nature. “Fernandez Lorilla is the owner of a livery stable in Pueblo Nuevo, Matanzas city, and, helped by Cassio, he steals the Indian corn from the barracks and hides it in his" stable to sell it later. This is a lucrative business. He also is one of the contractors for the Bailen bridge. Afraid of Gomez. “The Spanish genera? Bernal was in Macuriges, a few miles from where the great Deminican (Gen. Maximo Gomez) was ercamped, and as he was not very anxious to meet him, he marched the other way. As he passed the plantation ‘La Flora of Jose Sainz, whose nephew, Ynocencio Aguirre, gave him the information that Gomez was near, he accused him of being a disloyal Spaniard because he wished to deceive him.’ On arriving at La Guira he also insulted a captain of marines and the iayor of the town because they repeated to him the same information, which was true. After losing a great deal of time he went to the place he had been told of and there insulted another officer because he had not given him information about the irsurgents. The outcome of all this wa that he did not fight the great Dominican. But as he found himself in a difficult po- sition to give to Gen. Weyler his reason why he had not fought with Maximo Gomez he Invented an infamous calumny which resulted in the imprisonment of Ynocer.cio Aguirre, a Spaniard, who had often fcught against the insurgents in ‘La Fiera.” He was imprisoned in San Sererino Castle in Matanzas. Gen. Weyler has not dared to punish Gen. Bernal; he only changed his zone of operation. “Geraldo Gutierrez, a Spaniard, proprietor of the plantation ‘La Reforma,’ was threat- ened with death by the Spanish colonel, Luis Molina, because he did not approve of the murder of honest workmen on his planta- tion. Molina was furious. To revenge himself ne burned 200 huts of the tenants of the above-named gentleman. This de- struction by fire Molina attributed to the insurgents in his official reports, add- ing that he had in that encounter destroy- ed the insurgent camp. All this Senor Gutierrez said publicly in Matanzas. Protw’ Horrible Revenge. “The column cf Colonel Vicuna burned Castoria For Infants and Children. CASTORIA DESTROYS WORMS. CASTORIA CURES CONSTIPATION. CASTORIA ALLAYS FEVERISHNESS, CASTORIA CURES DIARRHOEA AND COLIC. CASTORIA RELIEVES TEETHING TROUBLES. CASTORIA PREVENTS VOMITING SOUR CURD. “The use of ‘Castorla’ is so universal and its merits so well known that it seems a work of supererogation to inmlorse it. Few are the intelli- gent families who do not keep Castoria within easy reach.” CARLOS MARTYN, D.D., New York city. THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP.

The excuse he gave for this act was that ‘he thought the owner was a Cuban,” “On the 20th of February the Cuban gen- eral, Maceo, routed the Spanish general, Prots, between the plantations ‘La Perla’ y ‘Ponce’ (Guamacaro), in the province of Matanzas. The killed on the Spanish side were 20). The panic among the routed was such that they abandoned their wound- ed, who were taken care of by the Cuban surgeons. In his flight Gen. Prots passed through the plantation ‘Diamante,’ and there he avenged ils defeat by assassinat- ing peaceful peasants, the following amons them: Don Francisco Lautana, of over seventy years of age; Don Antonio and Don Francisco Diaz were violently taken from their houses and killed with the machete. Den Locano Diaz was able to escape this butchery by running to a canefield, to which the Spaniard set fire, with the object of burning the fugitive, which, fortunate- ly, did not happen. A short distance from the house the soldiers assassinated Don Antonio Dominguez, and threw his corpse in the burning canefield. The same fate was meted out to Dam Gonzales, ronimo Linares and an Known colored man. Among the shot was Don Manuel Montes and four other men, who were in his house; also a lady sevent; years old, who was killed s give an account of this horrible deed. this was witnessed by a neighbor, who caped by hiding. Other Outrages, “Don Ferarando Agular, a young man that she might not All twenty-six years old, a brother of the dis- trict Roque, school teacher of Torneguin, in El province of Matanzas, was in- ly assassinated on the 9th of Feb- ary, for which purpose they took him out. of his house at night. “Gen. Aldecoa arrested and insulted Don Jose Ferreandez, a Spaniard, mayor of La province of Matanzas, simply be- he did not allow the troops to rob the peaceful citizens of that town. “Gen. Bernal arrested and sent to the town of Guira de Macurijes fifty-three pacific men from the district of Manuel Diaz and ordered them to be beaten in the face. The authorities to whom these men were de- livered afterward set them at liberty be- cause nothing was found inculpating them in any crime. “The mayor of Santa Ana, province of Matanzas, slept all of one night with his feet in the stocks because he refused to allow the troops to commit outrages in his town. “Four days ago, among the wounded in the encounter of the Spaniards with the party of the Cuban chief, Jose Maria Aguirre, was the Spanish chief, Sotomayor, and while receiving treatment in the sta- tion of Bainoa there arrived a passenger train from Matanzas filled with Spanish soldiers who brought along a mulatto as prisoner, whom the neighbors guaranteed as to his innucence and loyal to the govern- ment. But the sanguinary Sotomayor said: “At a very bad hour has he come; he will pay me some of what the others (rebels) owe me. These pains (from the wounds) I will not suffer unrevenged! Sol- diers, you already know what to do!’ The soldicrs tock away the unfortunate mulatto and behind a clump of bushes a short dis- tance away they removed him from the sight of the passengers. What happened there no one knows, except that the pas- sengers saw that the soldiers returned without their prisoner, and that they came back wiping their bloody bayonets. Weyler'n Secret Orders, “Lieutenant Colonel Marquis de Mendi- gorria of the Wadro’s battalion, who oper- ates In the district of Vuelta-Abajo, before leaving for his post, said, in Havana, that Gen. Weyler had given them secret orders to clean out the pacific Cubans wherever fcund tn their marches, and to do it without scandal. “The forces which garrison Pinar del Rio city, and which operate in the immediate vicinity ef said city,not being brave enough to meet Gen. Maceo, nor even the small band of Roberto Bermudez, who has not abandoned for one single day the road of Coloma, in order to prevent the passage of Conroy, has committed one of the many deeds which have been imputed to the Cu- bans. They left Pinar del Rio in a strong column, and many of them thought they would have a battle. The result of this march was the total destruction by fire and sacking the estate La Guabina, near Pinar del Rio city. The family Tincheria, owners of the above estate, arrived in the city in the greatest misery possible. All obeyed the proposition to revenge themselves be- cause two young men, members of this femily, had left to join the liberating Je- | Recent arrivals in Pinar del Rio that, besides the above, they arrest- man named Tinch » and that in the bar S, even after of the proclama- of Gen.

Baker, captai of an ice boat, for an alleged obstruction to navigation. His boat has been tied to the wharf of the Great Falls Ice Company, near the foot of Congress street, George. town, and it Is alleged that it caused an obstruction In front of the Potomae Boat Club's house, at the foot'of Congress street. Harbormaster Sutton, it is alleged, made a request of the captain to move his boat, and he refused. Several complaints had heen received from ynembers of the boat club, and in order to, test the matter the harbormaster swore out a warrant which was returned to the Police Court today. During the investigation made by Prose- cuting Attorney Mullowny it_ developed that there is a claim heing mde on part of the ice company that the club is fllegally occupying the space at the foot of Con- Sress street. The boat house, it being claimed, is at the foot of and about the center of Congress street. On the other hand, the boat club members claim that their house ts not on public land. The questions involved, the prosecuting attorney said, were of so much importance that he did not care to go into court until there Is a complete investigation. The case was, therefore, postponed. ——- To Enforce Judgment. Te enforce a judgment of $600, Jos. B. Bryan today filed a bill in equity against Harvey Spalding and others. The com- plainant prays that a deed of conveyance, dated December 12, 1895, from the defend- ant and his wife to James H. and Edwin W. Spalding be set aside for alleged want of consideration.

Deviares the Construction Conforms tc Congressional Requirements. CO3T OF CHANGING IT es Secretary Carlisle of the Treasury Depart- inent has writien a letter to the chairman cf the Senate committee on appropriations, in which he says: “In the matter of the contemplated change in the construction of the roof of the United States post office building being «rected in this city to a system of construc- tion in which combustible material would be entirely dispensed with, I have the hon- or to inclose for your information a report of the engineer of steel and iron construc- tion of the office of the supervising archi- tect of this department, dated the 21st stant, and accompanied with a sketch illustrative of the construction and fire- proofing method of the roof as now de- signed. Be uext of the Last Administration. Your attention is respectfully called to the fact that the design for the building was prepared by Mr. W. J. Edbrooke, su- pervising architect, and approved by O. L. Spaulding, acting secretary of the treasury; Jchn Wanamaker, Postmaster General, and John W. Noble, Secretary of the Interior, and that the roof is now being constructed according to such design, and that, as ful- ly set forth in the said report, the roof of the building as now designed conforms to the building ordinances of the cities of Chi- cago and New York as being a fire-proof structure and i this respect also conforms with the requirements of the acts of Con- gress of August 30, 18W, and March 3, 1591. Cost of Changing the Construction. “If, notwithstanding the fact that the roof as at present designed is for all prac- tical purposes a fire-proof roof, Congress shculd deem it proper to require that a roof of a different construction, In which combustible material would entirely avoided, be provided for the building, it is mated that the net total cost of the ad- ditional Jabor and n: h would be red to effect this ¢! would amount nang 000, to which amount sheuld be adde the sum ‘of $7,000 for the superintenden during the six months of which time it is estimated would be the delay occasioned in the completion of the building by the contemplated change, thus making it necessary for an additional ap- propriation of $42,000 over and above the present limit of cost of the building, be made by Congress if the change of the roof construction is decided upon, The Expense Incrennes. “The officials whom it is intended to ac- commodate In the post office building now p ing a total rental of num for their present quarte stated befere, the delay of construction, which vould necessarily follow the change i struction, woul a los: tates for additional renta) o ides which amount the United lose in material and workma already contracted for, and in place connection with the pi of, and order- ed or delivered unde the sum of $24,000, “In conclusion, to make the change in the reof construction, as embodiel in proposi- on No. 2 of the report of the engineer of stcel and iron construction, above referred to, would cosi_the United Sjates the sum total of $101 Further Details Given, hould Congress deem it desirable to chanve the construction of the flat or deck portion only of the roof, as described in the § contracts, second paragraph of proposition No. 2 of ort of the engineer of steel and iron construction, the 1 cost of this change to the United States will be $35,000, includ- ing the actual cost of the new work, the for the delay occasioned by d the loss on labor and ma- is already contracted for. ‘Should it be decided to inake the change in the deck portion only of the roof, as set ng paregraph, an addi- n of $1 this amount repr gs the ad ue of the labor and material aione ed for this purpose.
