the heat left to do its work.
In the back OF the apparatus is glass

charge can observe the reduction OF the
bodies. When only ashes remain the
door is opened, the shelves slid out the
ashes are removed, and the shelves re-
loaded with bodies.
II takes TWO and three hours to Gre
mate a body in a regular crematory.
This is according to the size Of the body,
the time for children being much less.
Very large, heavy persons take longer
to cremate. In the crematories an .eX-
ira price is charged for them. Children
under ten years are only $25. Stout. ell
Gerly persons are $35 and upward. These
details are quite settled by the officers
OF the cTematOTy.
But with the travelling one upon the
field of battle much better time is made.
The entire crematory full of bodies can
be .ncinerated in an hour. Experiments
have been made with the bodies OF
lambs. With the retort heated as hign
as the machinery will allow, the work
goes on very rapidly. OF course the
ashes in this case are charred and black
from the great heat, but this cannot be
helped.
The arguments to be used by the in
ventor are. first, the sanitary properties
CT the crematory. The horrible condi-
tons of bat,.efelds viii be brought forth
and the feet that they are practically use
less ever after as cities. Also the IN
speakable horror Of the immediate after
condition After a battle the baJtleneld
can be located miles away by tae vulures
that hover over it.

hole into which battle heroes are swept

with the dead will also be banished; for

WEYLER ARRIVES AT HAVANA.
Received with Great Acclaim by the Top
ulace of the Civ.

Havana, Dec. 12.-Captain General
Wey!er arrived once more in this city
at ) o'clock yesterday evening on horse
back. accompanied by Lieutenant
Colonel EscribanO and others of his
staff, and by a cavalry escort. The
streets of Havana We're thronged with
people and the houses of the town had
been gaily decorated with bunting in
anticipation of the captain general s
return. The plaza Armes in front of
the captain generals palace was packed
with a vast concourse of people. The
Marques Ahumada, vice governor gen.
eral. accompanied by the colonel of his
staff, met Captain General Weyler at
the entrance of the palace.
In the speeches made no doubt was
expressed of the death of Maceo. DR..
Zertucha. in another interview. says
that Maceo did not cross the trocha; he
went around it by sea. taking only
forty of his staff and principal officers,
going in a small boat which had to
make five trips on a stormy night.
The Cuban sympathizers here still re-
fuse to believe that Maceo is dead.
Referring to the statements that he
was not Maceos physician, Zertucha
says he was appointed after the death
of DIR. Hernandez, Maceo's former
physician.
