The Doctors story. n
Havana. Dec. 13.-Dr, Zortucha. the r
personal physician of Antonio Maceo, Fa
who, after surrcndcring to Col. Tort a. ~
san Felipe. furnished confirmation Oh N
the reported death of the great CUBAN y
leader, has given to the press IN an
Interview ut MaleDa del Sur, adlluoh-
III facts in connection with the case.
1t seems that Antonio Maceo ana ms
companions did not cross the trocna
or military lire OF Pinar del Rio in Inc
sense generally understood. lney
passed from Pipar del Rio into Ha-
yana province hy sea in an open ooa-
five trims being required 10 take te
whole party of insurgents from llha,
del Rio to C~arbtnpZ. this province. anu
rs the boat would only hold eight men
in addition TO the handlers, it VIII e
Cnn,, ,lot NI,.nn'- marty was c3EF X
posed OF only forty men. The nght
was dark and stormy. M",eo was ac'
c%ompauird by Miro, ;nother important
insurgert leader. and others OF ms
staff. They landed near Banes, anu
shortly afterward occurred the en-
counter with the Spanish troops ulusi
Maj. Cirutcda. resulting. as alleged IL
the death Of the Cuban chief.
The meeting betw G the Spanlarus
and the insurgents was seemingly VI
an accidental nature, the former haf.
ing no idea at that time that MacV
had succeeded in leaving the Pr0vlhee
of Pima del Rio. In spite OF the ."
fetal accounts of the death or MaceV
and Francisco Gomez there are Ihah!
here who refuse to credit the repoi.
Friends Of the insurgents express ue
belief that either the jeWelry ana o,n,
or things alleged to have been fouho
by the Spanish soldiers did not belong
to Maceo or else that they were piaceu
upon the body rs q ruse, in order "
throw dust In the eyes Of the spar
iards while Maceo pushed on easr
ware and communicated with Maximo
Gomez.
