THE LARGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY NORTH CAROLINA DAILY PAPER

can be affirmed, ON excellent authority
that the insurgents expect, in the long
run, to win something much more tangi-
BILE than the Reforms" proposed by the
Spanish government.
The Spaniards here, it cannot be de-
nied, are heartily sick of the war, except
ing only those who are without money
or property and who actually make a
better living out of the revolution than
they ever did before or could hope to do
again if peace is proclaimed. Then
there is another class anxious for the
war to continue-those who hope to bet
ter themselves considerably should the
insurgents triumph.
General Gonzales Munoz rs upon the
point of returning to Spain ON leave of
absence. His example is to be followed
by Generals Bassana, Bernal, Fin, Maui
eron and Losas in March These Of
fcers, the friends of the insurgents claim,
see absolutely no chance of glory in
Cuba and considerable danger of dis
grace. to say nothing of disease and
wounds.
Consequently, their enemies add, see
ing that the insurgents must eventually
triumph by the machete or otherwise,
they are adopting the policy of rats when
the latter become aware that the ship
which harbored them is upon the point
of sinking.
The insurgents ON Monday fired upon
a Matanzas train near Campo, Florida,
wounding a Spanish Major and two pas
semgers.
As this dispatch is sent, it has become
known that some of the most prominent
of the home rule leaders here, after con-
sulting together over the reforms pro-
jected for Cuba, succeeded i'm sending a
cable message to the Madrid govern
ment requesting the latter to radically
amplify the reform scheme, adding that
under its present form there is absolutely
no chance of its meeting the wishes of
the insurgent leaders and bringing about
the pacification in Cuba.

STARVING IN INDIA.
The Famine Belt is 1900 Miles Long
and 400 Miles Wide.
lCopyright 1897 by the Agsociated Pressl

Copyright 1897 by the Associated Press.)
JubbulpoOr, Feb. 9.-On his way to
this city the special representative Of
the Associated Press, who is examining
into the famine situation in India visited
the poor houses of Bhaspur and Katni.
The inmates were found to be in a deplOr-
able condition. The building were
OvercrOwded and medical attendance was
lacking. A man outside one of them
was dead and another was dying. A girl
of five years of age weighed only ten
pounds and several adults were under
90 pounds in weight The skin in all
cases was drawn over the face, showing
the outline Of the skulls and limbs and
JOINTS had the appearance of those Of
artlculated skeletons. There is an im-
mense migration to the Assam Tea Car
dens, 1000 persons going there weekly,
deserving their wives and families.
Jubbulpoor is the worst of any part Of
central India. 1t is estimated that the
present famine is the greatest of the cen
tury and will greatly surpass that Of
1876, both in area and severity The
famine belt extends to Rawalpindi and
Bellary and is 1900 miles long and 400
tered districts.
In all the rice districts there is no
chance of food supply until Septem-
Der. The government will thus be forced
to support nearly all the population for
six months and many of them for 8
months. Whole villages are deserted.
The governments policy at first was
rather to ignore the famine. 1t is, how
ever, now alive to the situation and
strenuous efforts are made to avert hor-
rible disaster. Out of the 100000 in-
habitants of Jubbulpoor about 10000
are now receiving relief.
BY the month of May this number will
be doubled.
The correspondent has just heard that
the Kurai poor house in the western
part of the district has been burned.
Twenty-Five persons perished. Cholera
IS reported to have broken out in the
Mandaid district relief works.
