CUBAN CAUSE IS LOST.
Insurgents Must Now Throw Down
Their Arms for a Time

Cuba's cause is lost. Crombet lies on the
battlefield of Palmarito, and Maceo is in
chains In deparate battle fought the in
surgents were defeated and several officers
were killed and others were captured. Re-
ports from the scene OF the battle are meager,
but enough is known to demonstrate that the
young republic born at Guatamara but few
DAYS ago is dissolved forever.
Gen Martin Campos, SPANS greatest gen
eral who is even now in sight of the shores,
will find nothing to do. The rebels whom he
has come to conquer will be rebels no longer.
Liberty has received death blow and Cuba
is chained for a time indefinite by the links
OF laws and taxes to Spain. Cuba's most
ardent friends admit that the cause is lost.
| and that on Palmarito's fields Spanish sold
iers dealt the rebels a blow from which they
will not recover for years. The Cuban army
met the Spaniards at Palmarito. The rebel
forces amounted to little more than 900 men
| while that of the Spaniards was about 5000
A desperate battle followed. Maceo was q
leader of the rebel forces with Gomez during
the last revolution. Though but youth he
achieved considerable distinction. Maceo':
fate is known in advance. 1t would be fal
better for him ii he had been killed, as was
| Crombet. 1t is just as certainas anything can
| be he will garroted.

FOUND IN BELFRY.
Horrible Double Murder Committed at
San Francisco.

Not for 20 years have San Francisco Cal.
people been so shocked and horror stricken
as, when, as the Easter church bells were ring
ing, newsboys rushed through the streets
shouting the news that Blanche Lamont n
missing girl, had been found foully murdered
In the belfry of the Emanuel Baptist church.
where, in the pastors study was found the
mangled remains of Minnie Williams an
other young member of the church and con-
slant attendant Of the Sunday school. Both
crimes are traced directly to Theodore Du-
rant young medical student, who also acted
as assistant superintendent OF the Emanuel
Baptist Sunday school.
Durant was caught by the police across
the bay as he was ON the way with an excur-
sion to Mt. Diablo. The circumstantial evil
dence against him is strong, for besides be-
ing the last person seen with both girls. the
purse of the Williams girl was found in his
trunk. Many small incidents are also re-
called OF the last few days which make it
morally certain that he is the murderer.
What the police are now working on is to
discover whether he had an accomplice. The
discovery of the body of Blanche Lamont
was fitting sequel to the terrible crime OF
the day before. For 10 days the police have
had score of men searching for trace OF
the girl. The first clew came with the return
OF the girls rings which were sent to her
aunt In newspaper package
