Final Action Taken In the Diamond LodG,
Before the Delegates Leay for Buffalo.

The Diamond lodge Of the A. o. u. w.
Ing, last evening, to complete the tinal
arrangements for sending the delegates
from this city TO the national meeting at
Buffalo, N. Y, the 10th inst.
A memorial was arranged aud nd
dressed to tho supreme lodge Of the A. o.
u. W., from the Diamond lodge OF this
city; ably setting forth the advantages Of
climatic treatment for Tuberculosis and
giving the percentage OF deaths from this
disease In the different sections OF the
United States and giving many Interest,"
ing facts aud figures to show that Las
Vegas Is superior to all other places in re-
gard to climatic conditions for those suf-
fering from tuberculosis. DR.. II. Fl. At.
kins assisted materially 10 making up the
tables, ehowing the aridity Of the atmos-
pierre, the number OF days Of sunshine and
the absence Of objectional features in the
| climatic conditions here. A description Of
| the grounds so literally offered by F. A,
| Manzanares Is also given. The memorial
Ais fifteen pages of type written legal CAP
paper.
The supreme lodge is advised that 1t !.
the intention to establish, at Las vegas, q
sanitarium for consumptives, which will
increase in capacity as means are pro
vided, until it shall be able to meet all the
| demands of the workmen and members Of
their families throughout the entire land
1t is estimated that the number of suf'
ferers who would gladly avail Themselves
| of such an institution. and to whom 1
would be a boon, exceeds 1850. There Il
no intention, however, to delay the worh
! until a large establishment would be prac'
| ticable, but to INNER work at once OF

] The memorial is precise and truthful IL
| all statements and is itself a strong plea tx
present to the supreme lodge at Buffalo
| The different delegates to this meeting
| should have been given an opportunity u
read the entire document over carefully
and it might be a wise plan for the Dia
mond lodge of this city to go to the small
expense of having the same published IL

DEATH OF GOMEZ

Havana. April 1.-The rumor of the
death of General Maxine Gomez is still
current here and being added to by al
legged details of his demise. The latter
are that the Cuban leader is said to
have expired some days ago of hemop-
tisis at the Sorocco plantation in the
province of Matanzas. The remains
also are said to have been inferred in
h official center" But no dates are
given and there are no facts forthcom-
ing to confirm the report of Gomez's
death. The insurgent band commanded
by Bermudez, in the province of Pinar
del Rio,have ordered the countrymen
of Hato de Las Vegas. Quemando and
Paso de Los Mangas to join the insur-
gent ranks. The countrymen have
complained to the government officials
and a column of troops has been sent
to transfer the families into the town.
The insurgents have already burned
the homes of these families.
