A type of passenger coaches ini he'd with copper on the outside rather than the usual paint and varnish is being put into service CD the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad The advan- tage of this is that the cars are more readily kept in a condition of cleanliness and brightness, and when t is necessary to send car to the shops tor an exferior oyerhauling, it is ready for the setylce again in half the time required to paint and varnsh it. All the wood panelipg and sheathing is made in precisely the same manner, and light coat of copper is formed around the wood, fitting closely into all the curves and corners Each piece of sheathing and its strip of copper are passed through the ma:hine simul taneously and come out ready for use with the copper wrapped tightly around the wood. After the sheathing and other mem bers are covered or plated with cop. per, they are applied to the body of the car in such a manner that the exposed surfaces are not punctured by nails or other fastenings, so that when completed the casual observer would not notice hut that the car Was finished with paint and varnish All joints are watertight M. & s.

The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1897-03-31

The renowned Cuban leader,
General Gomez, writes a blood
stirring letter to President Nc
Kinley setting forth the plea of
Cuba and the Cubans, stating
in detail why the Spaniards
continue their ruthless war on
women. He also encloses a
copy of a letter written to Gro
yer Cleveland, which either
went astray or was suppressed.
In speaking of the brutality of
the Spaniards. Gomez says:
Ought such facts TO be toll
Grated by a civilized people!
Can human powers. forgetting
the fundamental principles of
Christian community, permit
these things to 90 on! Is it
possible that civilized people
will consent to the sacrifice of
unarmed and defenseless men.
Can the American people view
with cuipable Indifference the
slow but complete eXtermina-
ton OF thousands of innocent
Americans: No, you have de
clared that they cannot; that
such acts of barbarity ought not
to be permitted nor tolerated.

evidence of heartfelt energy. :"
In closing he pays a glowing
tribute to the American people
in the following words:
THE American people march
legitimately at the head of the
Western continent. and they
should not longer tolerate the
cold and systematic assassina-
ton of dsfenseless Americans,
lest history impute to them a
participation III these atrocities.
Your conduct, furthermore,
will be based solidly on the
Monroe doctrine, for this can
not refer only to usurpation of
American territories and not
to the defense of the people OF
America against European am
bitions. 1t cannot mean to pro-
tect American soil and leave its
helpless dwellers exposed to the
cruelties of a sanguinary and
despotic European power. 1t
must extend to the defense of
the principles which animate
modern civilization and form
an integral part of the culture
and life of the American peo-
pie.
