tons, consisting of Senators Morgan and
Davis. Mr.. Diaz made statement UNI
der oath to the subcommittee, the sub
stance of which has been furnished to

Many of the statements made by Mr..
Diaz to the committee have already ap-
peared in print.
One case has just been furnished the
state department at Guato, where the
Spanish soldiers killed six or seven men
(non-combatants).
The Spaniards went into different
houses and gathered seventeen men.
They tied these together two by two,
among them being La Disla Quintero, an
American, 81 years old, of Key West,
who was found sick in bed. They were
taken to the street and commanded to
kneel down. The soldiers fired at them,
killing all except the American. This oc-
Cured on February %, in the immedi-
ate presence of the wives and children of
the unfortunate men.

cases where he alleges explosive bullets
were used by the Spanish, and of the
shooting of two children in the arms of
their mothers, by the Spaniards.
On March Is, in Havana, he saw a
man who had been killed by the soldiers,
who had seventy-one bayonet wounds.

SPAIN GROWS CORDIAL

SIAlN SRON > COhDlhI.
New York, May PA cable dispatch
to the World from Madrid says: THE
Competitor case is not at all likely to
disturb the relations between the Span
ish and American governments" said
Premier CanOvas in an interview.
''The official relations between the two
countries have become of late even more
cordial, if possible, than ever, while the
general relations also are improving with
popular excitement on both sides.
"The Spanish government is quite sat
isfied with the friendly disposition shown
all through by President Cleveland Sec
rotary Olney and the other federal au-
thorities, especially with the fair and
tons made about the Competitor"
Premier Canovas also spoke Of the
efforts of the American government to
get from the inferior courts and the
United States supreme court somewhat
defined jurisprudence in regard to fill
clustering expeditions and cases still sub
JUDGE. The prime minister adds:
The appointment of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee
to be consul general at Havana causes
no concern or apprehension, as the Span
ish minister at Washington continues to
report the excellent disposition of the ex-
ecutive.
Hc ucDdlcS III Tie
Spanish congress will not materially af-
feet the relations of the countries. We
understand that the executive in America
can not interfere with the freedom of
speech of orators, though here in Spain
we have the advantage that the ministers
in the cortes can always point out that
the government and the majority of the
nation are not responsible for any oppo-
sition members utterances.
'My opinion is that the state of af-
fairs in Cuba is improving in its military
and political aspect.
"The insurgents are beginning to sur
render with their arms, and families are
coming in to seek the protection of our
forces which have been able to push OPP
positions in May, as the rain began later
this season."

WATCHING A SUSPECT.

Washington, May 21.-The depart
ment of justice has instructed the United
States marshal at Jacksonville, Fla, in
case the evidence in his possession war
rants it. to require the master of The
Three Friends, now in that harbor and
suspected of Cuban filibustering opera
tons. to give bond that it will not en-
gage in any enterprise in contravention
of international laws. The department
is of the opinion that the facts in the
case do not warrant the seizure or IL
belling of the vessel, and it is thought
the bond will cover the case. The in
structions were sent in response to a
request for instructions from the United
States marshal.
