ROYAL ROAD MISNAMED Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. SANTIAGO, September 12, 1898. We know all about Havana in the west and Santiago in the east, the New York | and San Francisco of Cuba; but what about the country between? Since the blockade of Cuban ports began early in the war the interior section of the island, so far as the ide world is concerned, has been a place or vast silence. Correspondents with pen and camera and military couriers with dispatches went inland only as far as Gar- cia’s camp, in Santiago province, or to the headquarters of President Maceo and the Cuban government in the province of Puerto Principe. Occasionally there were brought to light small morsels of news about Matanzas or Cardenas, on the north coast, or about Cienfuegos or Trinidad, on the south; but the interior, all the inland [ tow remained in impenetrable gloom. In shut-up Havana knowledge was less than in the United States -until the sign- ing of the protocol and the coming of peace. ‘Then the opportunity to move about at will proved too tempting to be resisted by the trio of American correspondents who had remained cooped up in the Cuban metropolis for over three months. We de- jemines were merely indicated, to the valley scribed trocha. Once beyond this mass of barbed wire thet formerly marked the line between Spain's Cuba and Cuba's Cuba, we were practically i a,jungle. The desert we had left behipd was really a civilized country compared, to the country which we now entere@d.. this Cuba Libre— which the insurgents. have held during al the war. Here, in the province of Puerto Principe, ‘were? not only no rail- roads, but no roals fer wheeled vehicles. Eacepting in the vicinity of the town of Puerto Principe, here, is no road over which a carriage Br wakon can pass. Here is a most importent fleld for engineering enterprise—the development of transporta- | tion facilities. W,pat tg, now known as the | Royal road is merely abroad strip of coun- try, sometimes fented Yy cactus and barbed | wire and passable only’pn horseback.

Such roads as now exist cros$ rivers and streams by fords, which afe it assable soon after the rains set In. The necessity for bridges is great. Our progress Was uneventful, monoton- ous. Heat and mosquitoes were the only enemies encountered. In desperation we hurried on to the coast, through miles and miles of *irgin forest, where the finest mahogany was in evidence, where rich iron of Guantanamo. Here is the coffee district of Cuba. The plantations were deserted, Dut not in ruins. Coffee in greater quanti- ties than ever will soon be raised here, just as the cultivation of tobacco, in the prov- ince of Pinar del Rio, west of Havana, will soon again be a-thriving industry. It will take more than war to deprive Cuba of her natural wealth. Every foot of the ground over which we journeyed is capable of cul- tivation, and that without hard work. ha There were no untillable declivities or no fields of rocky areas as in Connecticu sandy land as in Florida. The is is about equal to New York state, and only 10 per cent of this resourceful area has ever been under cultivation. At last we reached a hamlet, a place of dobe houses only. All the inhabitants were gone. But small patches of ground, here and there, were planted with coffee, or sugar cane or tobacco, just like the door- yards in the suburbs of Havana, We knew now that we were nearing the end of our journey, for all the people had left their dooryara farms to go to Santiago city.
