and then the butchery begun.
Pancho Gomez was wounded and fell
before Maceo. but Miro escaped. At
this moment. said the Cuban commits

of rebels who were going to join Maceo
at the Havana side of Mariel, ap-
preached and were informed By Miro
of the ambush. The Spaniards had
already taken Maceo. who was pierced
with bullets. and Gomez, who killed
himself with the last bullet of his re-
vOlver. They had searched the bodies
and four men were carrying them
when the Cubans came up. A terrible
fight ensued, and the Cubans recovered
the bodies of the two leaders, pursuing
the Spanish with their machetes cellar
to Punta Bravo. Major Cirujeda had
a narrow escape. but ne was able to
take with him the objects seized in the
first search, though he left behind the
bodies of Maceo and Pancho Gomez,
dressed and in the hands of the Gu

THE MURDER.

What the junta knows about Maceo's
murder IS the following: Early IN No
Vember Maceo received mysterious
message which appeared to come from
the Marquis of Ahumada, with full
authority from General Weyler, as the
messenger carried q safe conduct is
sued by Weyler personally. Nothing
was written; the message was only
verbal
You know what you risk" said
Maceo 10 the messenger. Any man

posal of peace which is not based on
the full Independence of the island Of
Cuba can be sure of being hanged

came to offer you an interview with
the Marquis of Ahumada TO arrange
the terms for the evacuation of the
island by the Spanish troops"
At this conference only Brigadier
Miro. chief of the staff of Maceo, was
present.
Well" answered Maceo, go and tell
the MARQUIS of Ahumada that | will
consider the thing and give him an
answer
Maceo Immediately gathered his staff

opinion of his subordinates.

the Spaniards to catch Maceo in a

20 convince the Cuban leader that it

CHURCH AND STATE.

These views respecting nOn-union of
church and state are those l have held
and openly advocated for more than a
quarter OF a century. Recent occur
rences have intensified rather than
modified them, and 1 now comprehend,
better than heretofore, the wisdom ex-
pressed in that part of our state con-
stitution relating to the absolute sep
aration os civil and religious matters.
And while the state is bound to protect
the church in the fullest possible re-
ligious freedom, the church must not
attempt directly or indirectly to domi-
nate in civil or political affairs.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-12-13

[ have always tried to be honest care
full, considerable and CONSCIENTIOUS with
my brethren. confess that l nave mad
my personal views on almost every queS-
tiCu that came up. l had thought I was
entitled TO them. Had I entertained the
slightest ioubt of my right in the cuor-
UNI % my opinions / would never have
given the six brethren TO whom you re-
fer, the opportunity TO vote me an apos-
tleship. AS it was, l protested part of
three days before giving my consent to
President Taylor. But If / ever resented

question where l had been accorded the
right 10 present them, / do not recall II.
And now l come TO what appears - be
the chief reason for my suspension and
subsequent deposal, viz, the political
manifesto read in the April conference.
l regard this as the main difference be-
tween us because of the space you give
= in your open letter. and because Pres
ident George Q. Cannon said DlaiEly to
Elder 3. II. Roberts that II was not
r.-ht to circulate other charges about

dropped had l signed the manifesto. and
because a leading apostle declared that

l was never publicly or privately accused
Of the other offenses you charge until
after its presentation for my signature.
and last. because at the Logan high coun-
ell meeting President Joseph +. Smith
gave that as the reason for my sus-
pension.
You say. there was nothing new in
that document. as It relates 10 church
disc!pline:" that "it contains that which
has always been an established doctrine
Of the church," and that usually men
do not require much time to consider a
matter which they have always held to
be right
Had my views relating to this subject
harmon:zed with your statements, there
would have been no hesitancy on my
part in promptly signing that instru-
inent. or to accept this rule of discipline.

MIR. HARRIET AND THE NAVAL
ACADEMY.

Representative Barrett Of Massachu-
setts. is evidently trying to work mp Tor
himself a little newspaper notority,
which he will nu doubt get, by introduce
ing a bin in Congress to have the Naval
Academy removed from Annapolis to
some more suitable site. This would lie
hard to find, especially in any OF the
New England States. Wehaye no fears
however. of Mr.. Barrett accomplishing
his purpose when the government has
already millions of dollars invested IN
an institution which has bhen establish
ed 10 these many years, and which is
conceded OH all sides TO be one of the
most healthiest and picturesque spots
i'm the country. This, like all Of MI.
Barrett's sensations in Congress VIII
vanish like the mist before the morn
ing sun. We take it for granted that
Congress is not quite bereft Of all iis
senses and good judgment. There ale
some men who can see as far into a
millston as Mr.. Barrett, and when the
question arises Tor us IehoFdi hS VIII
find that he has stirred up a hornet S
nest. This il not the first time that
an attempt has been made in Congress
10 remove the Naval Academy from its
present'location, bat they have all fail
ed in their effort, and so will this.
That the government has been too par
simOnious in its appropriations to the
Naval Academy, We do not hesitate to
say, but this has been owing IN great
measure to lack of interest on the
part Of Maryland's representatives in-
Congress. We have no doubt that the
present agitation, however will result in
liberal appropriation this year for the
Academy.
