Fair Treatment Assured for Two U. s.
Citizens.
The state Department received u cablegram
from Consul General Williams at Havana.
stating that Aguirra had been released by
the Spanish authorities and sanguilly would
lie granted a civil trial soon.
Inis was welcome news 10 the department
as the case OF these two United States citizens
imprisoned in Cuba has dragged tcii0usly
FOR months. Consul General Williams was
active IN seeing protection for Aguirra and
San6uiliy, so much so that be offered the for
mer Spanish Minister Nuragun. who request
ed his recall. Later the State Department
made very energetic representations ut Mad
rid and Havana. These first bore fruits in
the concession that AgGirra and sanguilly
would be given civil and not military trials.
The release OF Aguirra and the prompt trial
OF Sanguilly will secure everything for which
the United States has coniended.

Wants People 10 Eat More Rnnc.

one of the New York food reformers
who would improve the diet Of mankind
has put out n proposition for the eating
Of bones, after they are ground fine.
he holds that under the existing rcgi.
men the bones of the human frame
are not properly supplied with the
chemical elements needed TO keep them
n sound and vigorous condition. and
that these elements can be most easily
Obtained by consuming the powdered
bones OF the animals ordinarily used
i5r food. He would sprinkle a steak or
chop. for example. with bone dust. after
the manner in which It is sprinkled with
salt and pepper. and he maintains that
thus the taste Of the meat may be great
Is improved.

viii Make an Investigation into the
Cheng Tu Riots.
The United States Government has decided
upon an independent investigation OF the
destruction Of American Christian missile ns
at Cheng Tu, China, by rioting Chinese. This
decision is "a result OF Great Britian's delay
In looking into the matter
There riots occurred on June 10, last, some
weeks before the kuCheng riots, which a
British aud American commissioner is now
investigating. IL does not look as tn ough the
British would begin their Inquiry until early
In the winter.
For the last ten days. Acting Secretary Of
state Adee has been IN communication with
Mr.. Donby. United y ates minister to China.
on the subject and just as soon as a consul OF
the United States on the coast can reach
ChenE Tu, the investigation will begin.
While none Of the American missionaries
met with injury In the Cheng Tu riots, the
missions were ali destroyed and It IL charged
that the Chinese officials refused protection
to their occupants until after the mob had
