WANTS TO KILL GARCIA.
Antonio hraoco Thirsting to Avenge His
Brother Jose's Death.

It looks now as II there will occur q Bit
ter conflict at an early date between An
tonic Maceo and Calixto Garcia. From
latest reports from the insurgent ranks It
is CLEANED that Antonio Macoo is thirsting
for vengeance on account Of the death of
his brother Jose.
The latter was shot by the order of Cen
eral Garcia for disobeying some slight com
mand. Macoo claims that the killing was
nothing less than murder. Ho IL boiling
over with rage and Is determined to shed
blood. For this purpose he will summon
all the colored men Of the insurgent army
with whom he purposes TO cross the trocha
dividing the provinces Of Pinar del Rio and
Havana and brave the Spanish forces.
All who have the interests of the insur-
gent cause at heart fear that conflict just
now between those two leaders viii have
disastrous results, Of which the Spaniards
will not fail to take advantage.
1t Is now conceded by the authorities
that during the last ten days of June there
were 5000 invallds In tho Spanish army
I'm Cuba, Of which number l, 800 were suf-
fering from yellow fever. Reports also
show that the ratio Of deaths Is increasing.
A bold atteinpt to flood the town OF Ar
temisa few days ago was made by vhe
insurgent leader Frederico Nunez. The
plan, however, was frustrated In time by
the municipal authorities. Artemisa lies
on tho banks OF the Limonez river, only a
few feet above tho water level.
Nunez engaged a large force of laborers
to fill In the bitches which drained the low
lands bordering on the Limonez river. In
this manner Nunez intended 10 cause tho
flooding of tho town during the cyclone
season. Had he succeeded n terrible dis
as .er and great loss of life would havo en-
sued, though doubtless tho town would
have fallen into the hands of the insur-
gents ts--New York Journal

One of the largest retail dry goods houses
In New York Is considering the advisable.
ity of starting school Of its own for Its
cashgirls, somewhat after the system that
is in operation in several of tho large Chi

stores In New York are equipped to furnish
almost everything 70 their customers and

school idea Is put In practice It's results may
be interesting.

Of an opportunity to get an education and
earn living at tho same time. Most Of
them are helping support q family, and

that this may be donc easily. In the Chi.

revaccinated, and l92 died, about twice
the fatality that took place before vacci-
nation was kn0wnF and also In Pru ssia,
where die epidemic came In 1871. and
struck 100000 Germans with smallpox,
OF whom 200,000 perished. Also after IL
years OF compulsory vaccination, In 1870
IL, 4a0oo died of smallpox In England
and Wales; from 1864 to '73. 10000 died.
But what Is much more remarkable,
and what has been established since then
In all localities stricken with smallpox,
at Charleroi, Jumet, as well as In England
and Germany, Is that the first persons
attacked with the disease have been those
who had been well vaccinated and re-
vaecinated.
For many weeks smallpox had ragged
In Cologne, and several quarters had been
overrun with II, before the first unvacci-
mated person was attacked; this was the
174th case; the second unvaccinated per-
son was the 20lst case. Everywhere, in
families. the first persons who were taken
sick were the yaccinated. Thus the
329th, 33Oth and 33lst cases were unyacci-
mated persons whose parents had been
vaccinated and re-vaccinated, and were
then i'm the period of smallpox suppura-
tion. Lastly, the smallpox patients who
had been vaccnated and re-yaccinated,
were those which presented the grayest
symptoms and greatest mortality.

vaccinated. Unyaccinated.
IL sick. k........................ sick.
The three unvaccinated persons fell
sick in the month Of June, after the dis
ease had been in Stolberg for five months.
and had already attacked IL persons who
had previously been vaccinated. These
8 recovered without having shown any
grave symptoms. Four out of the II,
who had previously been vaccinated,
died. In one family two children of
and years fell sick on 9th and 11th of
June; two younger children, aged ten
months, were seized 15 days and 3 weeks
after the others, and were only little
sick.
The unvaccinated children, amount
ing TO more than 500, were spared, with
the exception OF the three just men
toned.
1t was the vaccinated persons who
paid the relatively high tribute of IL
sick and deaths.
The official list of the Eberfeld small
pox epidemic of 10th May To 29th June,
1880. establishes the same facts as every
where else.
The vaccinated and re-vaccinated are
the first persons attacked.
This predisposition OF vaccinated per-
sons to contract smallpox before the
unvaccinated in all the epidemics, and
In all or nearly all the families, is ex-
ceedingly remarkable, and completely
upsets all the ideas which were enter
tanned concerning vaccinal immunity.
IL seems, after these facts. too constant
not TO be the general rule, that the
organism of vaccinated persons offers a
specially propitious field for the develop
ment of smallpox virus. Ii Is, we think,
the most decisive fact and argument
which Is possible to invoke against
vaccination.
