The Cu- ban hospital was better furnished with beds and bedding and other appliances than the one they had just left. It had been a regular army hospital un- der the Spaniards, and on their quick retreat they had left nearly everything intact. So these patients were in a much better condition. But “better’ is only a relative term. The place was foul to the eyes and to the nostrils. The surgeons in charge begged that the ladies of the Red Cross should walt a day until the place had been thoroughly cleaned. ~Red Cross nurses, however, are trained in a school that makes the annihilation of dirt its first principle. So, early the following morning, they appeared with pails, scrubbing brushes, soap, whitewash and disinfectants, and the way in which they went to work elicited the admiration and astonish- ment of all who saw them. Before nightfall the patients had been care- fully bathed, put into clean clothing and then into clean, sweet smelling beds, which, like all the rest of the furniture, and even the walls and the floors, had been thoroughly washed and disinfected. New Clamors From the Men. ‘And now the transformed Cuban hos- pital presented such a notable contrast of peace, cleanliness and comfort to the squalor, negligence and suffering in the United States hospital that loud clamors arose among the American sol- diers. “What kind of people,” they cried, “are these Red Cross folk, that come down here and give the best of every. thing to the Cubans and pass by our boys, who are dying for the want of these very attentions?” The clamors were only intensified as varied by deluging rainstorms, for the rainy season had now set in. Exodus of Non-Combatants. During the siege of Santiago General Shafter sent word to General Toral. the Spanish commander, that unless the city was surrendered within 24 hours he would bombard it. The sur- render was refused. An exodus of non- combatants of all ages and both sexes, to the number of 30,000 or more, hur- riedly took place. Some 20,000 took refuge in El Caney. This vast horde of hungry wretches overwhelmed the little village, whose normal population was barely 500. At a word from Gen- eral Shafter Miss Barton sent thither Mr. Elwell to form a citizens’ commit- ! tee for the purpose of distributing the food that was to follow as quickly as transportation could be secured. Every horse, mule and vehicle that could be | borrowed, begged or hired was pressed into service, and for two weeks the Red Cross agents worked night and day in relieving the place. An elderly gentle- man from Brooklyn, C. C. Bangs, was given charge of the relief supplies. and he worked faithfully as cook and dis- penser from sixteen to eighteen hours a day, until the surrender of Santiago, when the city people returned to their homes. But the strain proved too much for him. He came to the Red Cross headquarters, which had meanwhile been established at Santiago, sick and broken, to fall a vietim to calentura. He was buried in the cemetery at San- tiago. Red Cross at Santiago. It had taken five days of hard and steady work for the Texas to discharge her cargo at the surrendered city. She then left on her return trip to New York, leaving the Red Cross after that without any efficient means of trans- portation, as the railroads had been broken, and there were none but gov- ernment ships In the harbor. The Government had few delicacies at its disposal for its sick men. These were so hard to get at, owing to the official red tape, that those In quest of them could not get their orders filled they were turned to other quarters by the explanations of the Red Cross peo- ple that they had first gone to the United States army surgeons with prof- fers of assistance, which had . been unanimously declined. “Why?” was t.e inquiry that arose everywhere. No satisfactory answer was forth- coming. The clamors grew in force and volume until in a day or two the army surgeons deemed it best to allay further irritation by a general accept- ance of -whatever was needed in the way of Red Cross stores or personal assistance from its representatives. As a result the American hospital was soon made as comfortable as the Cuban. From that time on to the end of the war the army surgeons and the Red Cross worked in perfect harmony and with mutual respect and admira- tion. A Red Cross hospital was opened at Siboney and immediatel. filled to its utmost capacity with American sol- dlers and Government employes. Red Cross surgeons were given operating tables In the army hospital and on the field and with the aid of the Red Cross nurses rendered incalculable service in the bloody days that soon followed. As General Shafter pressed forward with his troops and the fighting became more severe, and his chief surgeon, Col- onel Pope, appealed to Miss Barton for ald to be sent out to the front, she responded by immediately leading a party in person, which went forward in army wagons and on foot, over an execrably bad road. They soon had their tents up and their kettles boiling, and for several days they devoted ali their time to relieving the sufferings of the wounded on the field. They found many of the poor fellows lying on the fleld, where they had been left after their wounds had been dressed, often without adequate clothing, and with no shelter save that afforded by until their patients had died or recov- ered. Consequently it was only nat- ural they should flock to the Red Cross. where it was only necessary to state the need and to write a requisition in order to obtain whatever was in stock. Official Red Tape. “There was at both Siboney and San- tiago a great congestion of Government steamers, causing much confusion and consequent delay in getting commis- sary and quartermaster stores ashore. The Government, of course. had charge of everything, including wharves and lighters, and as we were unable to com- mand these facilitles several shipments of goods sent to the Red Cross at Santi- ago were never allowed to land and were returned to the United States.” —_————————— DESERTED HIS WIFE. David J. Thomas, a furniture dealer at 14 McAllister street, appeared in Judge Graham's ' court yesterday to answer a charge of deserting his wife and associat- ing with another woman, Mrs. Viola B. Perry. The case was continued till to- morrow morning. Thomas and his wife were married about five years ago, and lived in a house on Liberty street, which they purchased on the installment plan. They lived hap- pily together until about six months ago, when Thomas began to absent himself from dinner. Then he became bolder and stayed away nights. Mrs. Thomas came suspiclous, and flnulr she dlscov- ered him with Mrs. Perry lunching in a restaurant near the City Hall. His wife upbraided him for his conduct, and he frankly told her he had intended folng with Mrs. Perry until he was found out.

Annexation will possibly have the pe. culiar effect of changing family names in the Philippines. As a paterfamilias, the Filipino has no superior, here or elsewhere; for nowhere, I verily be- lieve, is there more family affection than among the natives of my country, but the mother is reaily the head of the home; her word is law and she gives the surname to her offspring, who hold her in peculiar awe. However, the elastic nature of the Filipinos will easily adjust itself to new conditions, and will retain its inherent virtue. I do not believe, as some of my coun- trymen do, that the Filipino will dis- appear before the incoming tide of American emigration, as did the Amer- ican Indian. There are good reasons for this belief. One is, we are of the tropics tropical, and not even a hun- dred generations could completely ac- climatize the American, nor adapt him to the conditions of this sultry zone. There is no more danger that we will be supplanted by the Americans than that the Dutch will supplant the Ma- lays in Java. The body of the popula- tion must ever be native-born and in that physiological necessity and eth- nological fact lles our national salva- tion. Therefore, even in the event of American annexation, the Filipinos will in the main rule themselves; nor can any one else do it so well. The Filipinos are by nature agricul- turists. The farm suits them better than the store or factory. The Chinese and the foreigners, indeed, almost monopolize the trade of the islands; the natives being in the main producers, or else in the professions. ~And right here will come the great opportunity for American commerce;.for the carry- ing trade of the islands, as well as the various kinds of manufacture will soon be in American hands, and the chances for large profit will soon draw many investors to those golden shores. The hemp, tobacco, sugar, lumber, in- digo, rice and cocoa industries will thus alone receive a magnificent impetus and the production of these articles of export will' be stimulated, so that with- in five years their yield will be in- creased threefold. Hitherto there was little incentive to work hard for one- self, since the profits were shorn for the benefit of the oppressor, Woe to the Filipino who prospered; he was fleeced in a thousand ways by the of- ficials of the state and of the church. Thus_ ambition was atrophied and en- terprise of every sort was dwarfed into apathy. Foreign investors also were similarly encouraged, and many were only allowed to leave the scene of their unprofitable investment after they had lost their last dollar. Millions of acres of arable land are yet untilled. They walt an era of de- mand- to impel them to fruitfulness; ‘and America will create that demand by an increasing commerce, that will redound to her double advantage. For, in exchange for the products of the is lands, she will give the thousand and one articles of civilization manufac- tured in America. Send us prayer books and missionaries for our rice and hemp if you wish; but keep out American liquors and American politics. No one can drink the strong beverages of the temperate zone in the Philippines and live. Many foreigners, it is true, in- sist upon their arrival in Manila on calling for whiskies and brandies; but such indulgence is sure, even 'if con- tinued only moderately, to superinduce a fatal fever, or some other tropical dis- ease. Many of the foreigners who have died there owed their deaths to the daily tipple alone. For this reason the climate has not been so dangerous to the natives of wine drinking coun- tries, like France and Italv., American | Philippines. Atzors should be cautioned in zegard | name tg the dratly to this insidious danger, and strong fiquors, both for vour sake and ours, should be kept out of the colony. Protestantism will not flourish in the | The pomp and ceremonial | of the Catholic church appeals most strongly to the native imagination, and no religion which is wanting in splen- dor and in grand music will find a foot- hold in the islands. There is thus lit- tle danger of the Filipinos ever becom- | ing Quakers. They are a very musical | people. Every village has its native orchestra, and in the processions, of which the natives are so fond, and which occur every few days, the music | is the chief feature. Indeed, it may | be said that every Filipino plays some | instrument, and even little children | five or six years of age play the piano | or guitar amazingly well. It is refresh- ing to go through the suburbs of Ma-~ | nila on a fine summer’s eve and to hear | the happy people on the wide verandas of their homes singing and playing pop« ular airs, which the passersby be]mv] will take up, so that the whole street resounds with melody. Music is truly | a great civilizer, and it has doubtless | been a powerful instrument in the | hands of the church to win the natives to the standard of the cross. | Strange to say, the Filipinos, not- withstanding their great love for mu- sic and their wonderful ingenuity in in- venting and constructing musical in- struments, have no distinct school of their own, preferring to play the com- positions of European composers than to take the trouble to write their own. I believe, however, that they are capa- ble of a high order of composition, for one of the gifted Luna brothers, whom I knew very well, composed some pieces of extraordinary merit—and I am sure others also have the genlus to do so. I believe that large estates should be prohibited by law, for I fear that a few scheming Americans may soon own the greater part of the fslands, and will therefore soon have a great part of the population on their estates, educating them for a future of dependence and for political subserviency. At present every native owns his own house and his own little patch of land, and is con- tented and happy. Let him continue undisturbed in his humble possessions. The chief necessity of the islands are good schools, and we hope that the Americans will not long withhold from us this long desired boon. Compara- tively few natives have had the ad- vantage of modern methods. At pres- ent the educational facilities are most meager and the methods of the native schoolmasters, as well as of the Span- ish priests, are most antiquated. Only Spanish books have as a rule been al- lowed, and the whole course of colonial education has had a theological blas. The groundwork of superstition, how- ever—reared with such infinite labor during the centurles of Spanish priest- craft—is fast giving way. The eyes of the natives have at last been opened. They will no longer tolerate the delu- sions of the past, but will eagerly em- brace the doctrines of the new. Under American dominion, a glorious future awaits the Filipino. He will for once be able to hew out of the rock of op- portunity the statue of his own worth. RAMON REYES LALA. A FORGER RELEASED. Al Alford, Dyi::ghofié;msumptlon, Is Allowed to Go Home to Texas. Al Alford, allas Allen, secured his lib- erty from Judge Graham yesterday, and he promised to go to his home in Texas and end his days there. He is dying of consumption. Alford was arrested about two months ago as he was leaving San Quentin after serving a term for forgery in Los An- geles, and booked at the City. Prison on a charge of forgery committed here prior to the i,og Angeles offense. = He was ac- cused of forging the name of A. Allen of Philadelphia to a draft which he cashed at the First National Bank. Yesterday Attorney Caldwell, for the defendant, raised the point that the pros- ecution had failed to show that Allen had determined in the Alonzo Whiteman case, The Judie held that the point was well taken and dismissed the case. Alford has in the past given the Bank- ers’ Association considerable trouble, and the Pinkerton agency has other cases against him. Attorney Ach, represent- ing the Bankers’' Association, offered no objection to Alford’s discharge from cus- tody, considering his condition, and said he would not molest him as long as he remained at his home. His relatives are among the leading families in Texas. —_——— ‘Whipped a Gripman. A warrant was sworn out in Judge Con- lan’s court yesterday for the arrest of Jack Sullivan, a hackman, on a charge of buttery. The complaining witness is A. R. Wood, a gripman on the California- street line. Friday afternoon, at Califor- nia street and Van Ness avenue, Sullivan attempted to cross the track in front of Wood's car, but Wood kept on. Sullivan got mad, and used his whip freely on Wood's face and shoulders, blackening both his eyes. —————— R. J. Tobin Much Improved. ‘Word was received at police headquar- ters yesterday that Police Commissioner Tobin's condition was very much im- proved and that danger of an immedlate collapse had passed. The news afforded much gratification. “THE CREDIT HOUSE” Mahogany finish corner chair,with spring seat, up- holsteredin velours of var- ied design and color. $3.50 Solid oak combination bookcase and writing desk; glass front; French oval mirror; convenient writing lid. $10!
