SPANISH BRUTALITY.
Stories of Disgraceful AS
sassinatiOns of Aged
and Helpless.
Non -COmbatantS Shot Down
By The Spanish Soldiers of The
Butcher Weyler.

Cuba, that the work of extermi>
nation OF non -combatants or
"pacificos," as they are styled
there, continues to a greater or
less extent, is evidenced by the
reports which are received from
the country. Not a day passes
without some shocking story is
told of brutal assassination COM
mitted by the troops on defense>
less people, whose sole crime is
being witnesses of the war rag
ing all over the island, without
taking any part i'll it. Here are
a few facts selected from the
many that are told:
On the end instant a column
of Spanish troops, commanded
by Col. Oclloa, operating around
Jaruco, Havana province, cap
tured poor, miserable boy Of Il
years of age, named Juan Rodri>
guez, suffering from nervous
prostration and so weak that he
could hardly move without as
sistance. This unhappy creature
was dragged from his home, a
little farm near Casiguas, and
without any compassion for his
pitiable state, he was butchered
on the roadway to Tampaste for
the sole crime of being a cousin
of leader i'll the rebel army,
named Victor Simon.
On June Ist, Simon Yruri,
member of one of the best fam
lilies of Jaruco. was arrested on
suspicion of being a rebel SYM
pathizer, by orders of Gen. Mel
guizo. He was too we'll known
to be taken out of the town and
shot in the field, as this would
create a scandal, SO they made a
semblance ola court martial, and
with all the apparent fornali-
ties Of the law he was publicly
shot in the square of the town.
The decd created general indig-
nation when it was known that
Melgizo had ordered the execu-
ton on his own authority with,
out consulting the Captain Gen>
eral, who is the only one ell
powered to order such proceed
ings.
On June 4th last, Mr.. Loronzo
Medina, a native of the Canary
Islands, As years of age, and a
cattle dealer Of some means, and
Juan Toledo, a Cuban of 80 years
of age, owner of a cart shop,
both we'll known and esteemed
in the town of Jaruco, were ar>
rested on no charges known.
They were lodged in the civil
guards barracks and the next
morning they were taken out of
the town under promise of
prompt release and treacherously
shot behind the slaughter house.
1t is known that Valencia had
a fight with Col. Fondeviela, of
Campo Florido fame, in which
this "brave" was completely
routed, losing thirty-two dead
left on the field. This has never
been reported officially.

himself from her clinging arms

the sister, in hysteria, stood upon

There IS a well-fOuuded belief
among those who witnessed the

Last Saturday Thomas Collins, son
Of Henry Collins of Clifton, was killed
by being run owe by a wagon. He
was engaged in hauling lumber from
the saw mill near Stanley's into Cliff
ton, driving a four horse team. He
was going down a grade with the
wheels locked, and it is supposed the
wagon gave a lurch which threw him
off, the wheels passed over his neck,
killing him instantly. Charlie john
son, a cowboy, saw the team standing
still and went up to see what was the
matter, when he found the dead body
under the wheels. Thomas Collins
was about twenty-one years old. He
was a steady, hard working boy, and
his death is meurned by a large circle
of friends.

To settle the quarrel it was suggested
they adjourn TO the top Of the hill and
have it cut with their fists. On the
way up the hill Loya dropped behind
and, when Maese vas not looking,
darted ihto lis house and secured his
six-shooter. The fight at the top OF

couple OF times, from the effects OF
which he died. Loya was arrested
