GEOGRAPHY AND TOPOGRAPHY.

Cuba, the largest and most populous of the West Indian Islands, 

lies directly south of Florida. Habana, the capital, is a little west of 

south of Key West, and is distant, in a straight line, about 100 miles, 

being separated from it by the Strait of Florida. Cuba lies between 

the .meridians of 74° and 85° west of Greenwich and between the 

parallels of latitude 19° 40' and 23° 33'. Its extreme length, from 

Cape Maisi on the east to Cape San Antonio on the west, is 730 miles. 

Its breadth differs greatly in different parts, ranging from 100 miles in 

the east to 25 miles in the neighborhood of Habana. Its area, including Isla de Pinos and the bordering keys, may be accepted as approximately 44,000 square miles.

The north coast is mainly steep and rocky and in the middle portion 

of the island is bordered by lines of islands and coral reefs, the passages through which are extremely intricate. These islands are low, 

mainly covered with mangrove thickets, and contain few inhabitants. 

In the western part of Cuba the coast bluffs are low, being only about 

100 feet in height, but they gradually rise eastward until in the neighborhood of Matanzas they are fully 500 feet above the sea. Farther 

east, in Santa Clara and Puerto Principe, they are lower, while toward 

the eastern end of the island, in Santiago Province, the coast is rugged 

and almost mountainous,,rising from the sea in a succession of terraces.

From Cape Maisi westward the south coast is bordered by mountains. That portion of it extending from Santiago to Cape Cruz is 

bordered by Sierra Maestra, which rises abruptly from the water to 

an altitude of several thousand feet. From Cape Cruz the coast trends 

northward around the Bay of Buena Esperanza, into which opens the 

broad and fertile valley of Rio Cauto, the largest stream of the island. 

The shores of this bay and most of the coast thence westward to Cape 

Antonio, the west point of Cuba, are low and marshy. This coast 

consists in the main of a narrow strip, but west of Cienfuegos it 

extends far inland, forming the great Zapata Swamp, an almost
10 GAZETTEER OF CUBA. [BULL. 192.

impenetrable region 75 miles in length in an east-and-west direction 

by 30 miles in breadth. Off the south coast are many low, marshy, 

mangrove-covered islets. Most of the harbors of both the north and 

south coasts are of peculiar shape, with narrow, crooked entrances, 

opening within into basins of considerable extent, which are thus completely sheltered. This is the character of the harbors of Habana, 

Santiago, Cienfuegos, Guantanamo, and many others.

The relief of the island is complicated, being composed of several 

disconnected features which apparently bear little relation to one 

another. The middle portion of the island, including the provinces 

of Habana, Matanzas, Santa Clara, and Puerto Principe, presents little 

relief, consisting in the main of broad, undulating plains and shallow 

valleys. It is only at the two ends of the island, namely, in Pinar del 

Rio in the west and Santiago in the east, that the country presents any 

decided features. Throughout Pinar del Rio Province runs a range 

of hills parallel to the coasts, a little north of the middle of the island, 

known as the Organ Mountains (Sierra de los Organos). These rise in 

many places to altitudes exceeding 2,000 feet, and culminate in the 

summit known as Guaguibon, which has an altitude of about 2,500 

feet. From the crest of this range, which forms a watershed, the land 

descends gently northward and southward to the coast. The southward slopes form the celebrated tobacco land known as Vuelta Abajo.

The Organ Mountains cease as a range a little west of the city of 

Habana, but traces of this uplift can be followed eastward, through 

Matanzas and Santa Clara provinces, in lines of low hills rising from 

the extended plains. Such hills are the Tetas Managua, near Habana, 

and the Pan del Matanzas, just south of the city of the .same name.

In Santiago Province, at the eastern end of the island, the country 

breaks up in bold relief. Along the south coast is the Sierra Maestra, 

separating the coast from the valley of the Rio Cauto, reaching altitudes 

exceeding 5,000 feet, and in one peak, Turquino, a height of 8,320 feet. 

This range extends unbroken from Cape Cruz eastward to Santiago, 

and thence in a more broken, plateau-like form, to the east end of the 

island. The interior of Santiago Province north of the valley of the 

Cauto consists in the main of a greatty dissected plateau, rising to 

altitudes of 1,000 to 2,000 feet.

Isla de Pinos lies to the south of the main island. The northern 

part of this island is Slightly broken in surface, while the southern 

part, which is nearly disconnected from it by a strip of swamp, is low 

and level.

The rivers of Cuba are numerous, but short, and few of them are 

of any importance to navigation. The largest stream is the Rio Cauto, 

in Santiago Province, which drains a broad and veiy fertile valley. 

This river, which has a total length of 150 miles, is navigable for small 

vessels as far as Cauto Embarcadero, about 50 miles above its mouth.

The next river in point of importance i.i the Sagua la Grande, on the 

north slope of the island, in Santa Clara Province, which is navigable 

for about 20 miles. Of the many other streams of the island few are 

navigable at all, while others are navigable only within their estuaries. The interior of the island is dependent upon its few railroads, 

of which there are only 1,100 miles, and its poor wagon roads.

MINERAL RESOURCES.

The mineral resources of the island, so far as developed, are limited, 

and consist almost entirely of iron ore. Iron has been mined for many 

years at the south base of the Sierra Maestra, a few miles east of 

Santiago. The ores are hematite, with a little limonito, and are found 

principally as float ore in the bowlders. It is not certain that any ore 

has been found in place. The ore is of excellent quality, containing 

about 62 per cent of iron, and is easy to work. The developments are in 

the hands of three companies, and nearly all of the ore produced has 

been shipped to the United States, principally to Baltimore. Copper, 

deposits, said to have been of enormous richness, were worked for 

many }rears under the Spanish regime, in the neighborhood of Cobre, 

but in recent years operations have ceased, and the mines are at 

present filled with water. Asphaltum has been found in several'places, 

particularly near the city of Santa Clara, where it has been utilized in 

making illuminating gas.

A little gold and silver has been mined in past times, but for many 

years the island has not produced any of these metals.

CLIMATE.

The climate of Cuba is comparatively simple and can be briefly 

described. With the long narrow shape of the island and its great 

extent of coast line, it has, in high degree, an insular climate, with a 

high mean temperature, great humidity, and ample rainfall. Lying 

within the tropics, the island is subjected to the northeast trades, which 

blow over it steadily and constantly. They bring to the north coast 

and the northern slopes of the island an ample rainfall, while the 

southern slopes, especially at the eastern end, protected by the mountains from the trade winds, receive a much less amount of rainfall, 

although sufficient for the cultivation of most crops. At Habana, on 

the north coast, the mean annual temperature is 77°, and the range of 

temperature between the mean of the hottest month and that of the 

coldest month is from 82° to 71°. The highest temperature on record 

in Habana is 100.6°; the lowest, 49.6°. The maximum temperature 

is not as high as in many northern cities of the United States, but the 

duration of high temperature in Cuba is much greater. But notwithstanding the long-continued high temperature, the northern slopes of
12 GAZETTEEK OF CUBA. [BULL. 192.

the island are cooled by the constant trade winds, and the nights, even 

in summer, are cool. The figures given above for Habana represent 

the conditions of the island fairly well, excepting that on the south 

coast and in the interior the temperature is a little higher. The mean 

annual rainfall at Habana, derived from observations of many years' 

duration, is 52 inches, and this figure represents quite.closely the rainfall throughout the north coast of the island. The rainfall is decidedly 

less than upon the Gulf coast of the United States, and is but little 

greater than that of the northern seaboard cities. About two-thirds 

,of this rainfall descends between May and October, the remainder of 

the year being comparatively dry.

CIVII, DIVISIONS.

For administrative purposes Cuba is divided into six provinces, 

which, named from the west eastward, are Pinar del Rio, Habana, 

Matanzas, Santa Clara, Puerto Principe, and Santiago. These provinces are divided into municipal districts, or terminos municipales, of 

which there are 132 in the island, including the Isla de Pinos, which 

forms a municipal district of Habana Province. The number of 

municipal districts in each province is given below.

Pinar del Rio .............................................................. 20

Matanzas.................................................................. 24

Santa Clara ................................................................ 28

Puerto Principe ............................................................ 5

Santiago................................................................... 19

The municipal districts are in turn divided into barrios, of which

there are approximately 1,500 in the island, including those constituting the cities. Such organizations as cities, in the sense in which we 

understand the term, do not exist in Cuba. The city of Habana has 

no legal limits, but comprises most of the municipal district of that 

name. This includes not only a large urban population, but also a 

small number of rural inhabitants. By the recent census the population of the cities of the island was obtained by selecting from among 

the barrios composing the municipal districts those whose population 

was urban in character.

HISTORY.

Cuba was discovered by Columbus on October 28,1492, the landing 

being at or near the present city of Nuevitas, on the north coast of 

the province of Puerto Principe. He explored this coast from the 

Laguna de Moron eastward to Cape Maisi, at the eastern end of the 

island. On this voyage and in other subsequent visits to the island, 

he explored most of the remaining parts cf the coast.

For several, years little attention was paid to the island, and it was 

not until 1512 that colonization was attempted. That year Velasquez, 

with a force of 300 men, founded the town of Baracoa, near the eastern 

end of the island, and two years later Trinidad and Santiago, together 

with a number of other towns in the interior. In 1519 Habana was 

founded, and in 1552 it became the capital. The growth of European 

population in Cuba was particularly slow during the first 250 years, 

and in 1775 the population numbered only 171,620. The occupation 

of Cuba by the Spaniards was continuous from the date of its colonization to 1898, with the exception of the English invasion of 1762, 

during which Habana and a part of Matanzas Province were taken 

possession of by the English and held for a few months. On December 10, 1898, the sovereignty of Spain in Cuba was relinquished by 

treaty to the United States, after a war which, though brief, was

exceedingly disastrous to Spanish power and prestige.

While thus measurably free from foreign invasion for centuries, the 

island was on several occasions the scene of domestic disturbances, due 

in nearly all cases to Spanish misrule. Such were the insurrections 

of 1717, 1812, 1826, and at several later dates, but none of these were 

of serious importance. In 1868, however, an insurrection broke out, 

and continued, with desultory fighting in various parts of the island, 

for ten years. The recent insurrection was the most general and 

serious of these domestic disturbances. It broke out in 1895, and was 

ended in 1898 by the intervention of the United States. It is unnecessary to speak of this at length, since the events of that struggle are 

recent and well known.

The aboriginal inhabitants of Cuba have been variously estimated at 

from 200,000 to 1,000,000. In all probability the former figures are 

nearer the truth. Upon the settlement of the island by the Europeans 

these natives were promptly enslaved and put to work on the plantations 

and in the mines, where they soon succumbed to hard work, and within 

fifty years of the date of the first colonization, or long before the end 

of the sixteenth century, the aboriginal population of Cuba had been 

wiped off the face of the earth, and at present no trace of Indian 

blood is to be found in the island. Upon the destruction of the Indian 

element its place was taken by African slaves, and for centuries the 

African slave trade was a most profitable one, ceasing only with the 

abolition of slavery in 1883.

POPULATION.

The population of Cuba, according to the census taken under the 

direction of the United States War Department in 1899, was 1,572,797. 

Twelve years earlier, in 1887, according to a census taken under 

Spanish authority, the number was reported as 1,631,687, or nearly 

59,000 greater. After allowing for the probable increase of thepopu-
14 GAZETTEEK OF CUBA. [BULL. 192.

lation between 1887 and 1895, the date on which the insurrection broke 

out, the loss of life, as indicated by these two censuses, may be estimated at nearly 200,000, a loss which may be attributed to the war 

and to the accompanying reconcentration.

The first census of Cuba upon which any reliance can be placed was 

taken in 1775. The following table shows the population at the date 

of each subsequent census and the decennial rate of increase:

The loss in population incident to the insurrection was sustained 

entirely by the three western provinces, the three eastern provinces 

having gained during the period between 1887 and 1899, although 

Santa Clara, one of the largest provinces of the island, gained but a 

trifling amount.

The density of population, taking the island as a whole, was 35.7 

inhabitants to the square mile. The area, population, and density of 

population of the six provinces are given in the table below:

The urban population of Cuba, including in that term the inhabitants of all cities of more than 8,000 population, was 32.3 per cent of 

the entire population, or a little less than one-third, being but a trifle 

smaller than that of the United States. Including, however, all cities 

down to 1,000 each, the proportion of urban population rises to 47.1 

per cent, that of the United States being the same. The capital and 

chief city of the island is Habana, situated on the north coast near its 

western end, with a population of 235,981. Other important cities are 

Santiago, the capital of Santiago Province, on the south coast near the 

eastern end of the island, population 43,090; Matanzas, the capital of 

Matanzas Province, on the north coast, population 36,374; Cienf uegos,

in Santa Clara Province, on the south coast, population 30,038; Puerto 

Principe, the capital of the province of the same name, situated in the 

interior, population 25,102; Cardenas, on the north coast, in Matanzas 

Province, population 21,940. Most of the larger cities are situated 

upon the seacoast rather than in the interior, indicating their commercial character.

The center of population of Cuba in 1899 was situated in latitude 22° 

-15' and longitude 80° 23'. This locates it in Santa Clara Province, 30 

miles southwest of the city of Santa Clara, and 8 miles northeast of 

Cienf uegos. It is at a distance of 76 miles northwest of the geographic 

center of the Island.

As to sex, the population was distributed in the proportions of 51.8 

per cent males and 48.2 per cent females, the excess in the number of 

males being probably due to immigration.

As to race, there were 68 per cent white and 32 per cent colored, 

The colored formed less than one-third of the population, and their 

proportion has for many years been diminishing. The foreign-born 

formed 9 per cent of the total population, which leaves' 60 per cent as 

native whites. Three-fourths of all the foreign-born in Cuba came 

from Spain. Of the remainder, the countries which most freely contributed were China, Africa, and the United States. Other West Indian 

islands, and even the neighboring countries of Central and South America, contributed very few, showing the extremely sedentary character 

of these peoples.

The foreign-born element was found mainly in the cities, and especially in the larger ones. Nearly one-third of the entire foreign-born 

element was found in the city of Habana, where it constituted 22 per 

cent of the entire population of the city.

The proportion of married, even when we add to the number of those 

legally married those who have assumed marital relations without the 

sanction of law, is very small, being only 24 per cent of the population, 

as contrasted with the proportion in the United States, 35.7 per cent. 

Of this proportion thus living together, either with or without the 

sanction of law, about two-thirds were legally married and one-third 

were living together without marriage. The legally married constituted only about one-half the proportion that they do in the United 

States.

Of the total population of Cuba, 34 per cent, or a little more than 

one-third, were able to read. For obvious reasons, illiteracy was 

greater among the colored than among the white, and greater in rural 

districts than in cities.

The proportion of Cubans reported as being employed in gainful 

occupations was 40 per cent, or two-fifths of the total population, a 

proportion larger than in either the United States or Porto Rico. Of 

the males, 68 per cent were reported as wage-earners; of the females 

only 9 per cent.

AGRICULTURE.

There were, in 1899, 60,711 farms, with a total area of 262,858 

caballerias, a caballeria being equal to 33 acres. The average size of 

a farm in Cuba was 143 acres, and the average area cultivated per 

farm 13 acres. Of the entire area of' Cuba 30 per cent was reported 

to be in farms, but only 3 per cent of the area of the island, and only 

10 per cent of the area in farms, was under cultivation. The most 

highly cultivated parts of the island were in Matanzas and Habana 

provinces. In Puerto Principe cultivation is comparatively slight, 

most of the farms consisting of mere cattle ranches.

Of the cultivated area of Cuba, less than one-half was owned by its 

occupants, and a little more than one-half was rented. Of this cultivated area 85 per cent was occupied by whites, either as owners or 

renters, and only 11 per cent by colored, the remainder being 

unknown.

The only measure of farm products obtained by the census was in 

terms of areas cultivated in the several crops. Measured thus by 

areas under cultivation, sugar cane is far the most important crop of 

the island, occupying 47 per cent, or nearly one-half the cultivated 

area. Sweet potatoes are second on the list, with 11 per cent; tobacco 

9 per cent. Bananas occupy little less than 9 per cent, and other

crops occupy still smaller proportions. Sugar cane was produced in 

all the provinces of the island, but had the greatest importance in the 

provinces of Santa Clara and Matanzas, which together produced 

nearly three-fourths of the crop, as measured by the area under cultivation. Santiago produced about one-sixth of the crop and Habana 

about one-sixteenth, the proportions produced in the other provinces 

being trifling.

Tobacco was produced in all the provinces, but three-fourths of the 

entire production, as measured by the area under cultivation, came 

from the province of Pinar del Rio, and nearly all the remainder from 

Habana and Santa Clara.

Coffee, which was once a product of great importance in Cuba, has 

diminished in recent years, and now but little is produced, that little 

coming from the provinces of Santiago and Santa Clara.

There were in Cuba, in 1899, 207 sugar mills, or centrals, with a 

daily production of 61,407 bags of sugar. There were also 85 stills, 

with a daily capacity of 161,751 gallons.

The population in 1899 was 424,804, showing an average density of population 

of 153 per square mile. Owing to the presence of the city of Habana, as well as 

other large towns, the urban population comprised not less than 65 per cent of 

the total number of inhahirants. Males were in excess of females to the extent 

of 5 per cent. The native whites constituted 58 per cent of the total population, 

colored 26 per cent, and foreign whites 16 per cent, the greater part of the foreign born being found in the city of Habana. This is the only province the 

majority of whose inhabitants are able to read, the proportion of literates being 

53 per cent. The province is divided into 36 municipal districts and contains a 

number of large cities, among them Habana, Guanabacoa, Guinea, Marianao,
