GREETED themselves about the building
and at signal from the interior, when
the hated words were being spoken,
rushed in and opened fire upon the help
less and unsuspecting Cubans in the au-
dience. Ascene Of fiendish slaughter en-
sued in spite of the efforts Of Spanish
officers, who sat in silence during the
performance. Volunteers outside caught
the infection and shot down citizens in
the street. It seemed for a time that a
general massacre Of natives had been de-
cided upon and there occurred general
emigration Of wealthy Cubans to the
United States. Strange to say, actual
warfare in the field was stayed by the
occurrence for time. The captain gen
eral wished to treat for terms, Offering
reforms Cespedes, however, was defiant
and refused to treat with any one except
a specially empowered agent of the home
government.
ALI this imbittered the Spanish pop
ulace, and a reign Of terror lasted for
weeks. So savage was the spirit engen-
dered that Cubans were butchered in
the street for refusing to cry "Viva
Espana!'' and women were maltreated
when they We're caught wearing Cuban
colors or letting. their hair hang down
"a la Cespedes.'' About this time the
battle opened. The Spaniards volun-
teered for the field with the same readi-
ness they had displayed in mastering
for the defense of towns. A column set
out under the captain general to attack
Cespedes in his stronghold at Nuevitas.
The natives harassed the march with
such vigor that the Spaniards turned off
toward Bayamo, still prominent
Cuban post, but Cespedes caused it to
be abandoned and burned. Thus the
first campaign was failure
The spring Of 1869 opened with a
regular organized Cuban government
Cespedes at the head-and house Of
representatives. Slavery was declared
at an end, camps were established all
over the island, and the people lived as
though the revolution had been accom-
plished. On the other hand, Spain sent
out her best fighting general, Roda, and
0,000 troops followed him across the
sea. Meanwhile the ex-Confederate
General Thomas Jordan, a West
Pointer, had landed with men and arms
to aid the insurgents. Everything
looked bright for the cause Cubans
abandoned the Spanish towns and gath

great end, the freedom of Cuba The
men drilled and manufactured weapons !;
the women devoted themselves with
Spartan courage to every species Of work

Jordan defeated the Spaniards in bat

general in chief. About that time the

marily executed at Santiago. One Of the
four was General Washington Ryan, a
we'll known figure in New York city.
The steamer had fitted out in the United
States secretly and left Kingston, ia
maica, Oct. %, with large party on
board. Ryan was among them as chief
of the expedition. Bembeta, Pedro Cess
pedes and Jesus del Sal died with him.

tain Fry was an ex-offcer Of the United
States navy and had served valiantly in
the Confederate army. Out Of 1859 men
in the Virginius party only 10 escaped
punishment. About 1879 were killed.
Many were young Cubans of great worth
and promise, and the massacre sent a
thrill Of horror over the civilized world.
AS the cause Of Cuba rested at that time
upon hopes Of outside aid in men, arms
and money, the disaster to the Virginius
proved a fatal blow to the revolutions
The war continued for months as a ter

deliberately shot every man found in the
country whether armed or not When
asked to conduct the war on civilized
principles and exchange prisoners, the
Spanish general said: IT will settle our
account with bullets. Kill all you have
