While we look for all this it is not
Improper to express a hope that the Presi
dent vii! lie straightforward enough no;
to conceal Ger! ain facts pertinent to the
situation, and which are known to the
State department. For Instance he knows,
or IL il, :, position to know that the st arva.
tinn OF the reconccntradosi is being pursued
under Wanco exactly as it was under Wey-
Ter that the butchery of prisoners of war
goes on rs heretofore, and that the hellish
pracrlce Of raiding Cuban field hospitals
and numbering Inmates, nurses and sur.
gsons is ntinued with increasing vigor.
All these things are OF daily report to the
Consular Bureau of the State Department
Judge Day knows il, and We do not think
that he would care to deny it. In view
Of the ease with which such facts can be
proved. Since Judge Day is fully advised
1t isimpossib,etob believe thatthe President
is not. The conditiun OF the unfortunates
within the Spanish lines is not fraction
better than il was sixty days ago, and
THEFT horrible state calls for the int er-
vention OF this Government, under the rules
of International law, and every cunsid-
Grafton of national honor, decency and hu-
manity. .JftheAdministratiun shall attempt
TO suppress the truth, as happened last
spring the trouble In store for i: will
be appreciated whei, II comes, and there
will be plenty OF 1t. The strange report
comes fr,m Havana today that cons!i-
erabie Spanish element, seeing that the
cause vf the monarchy is lost in Cuba, is
beginning To agitste for annexation Ia
p-ndenc1 Of the island. II is not such a bad
proposition, III emanatedfrom the govern
