TRooHA COST MANY LIVES.

Over 1000 Soldiers Died of Fever Con-
tracted There.
A decided change has been made in
the plan of military operations in Pinar
del Rio province.
The western trocha has not been
abandoned yet, but the force along
that military line has been greatly re-
duced already. Three brigades of in
fantry have gone into the mountain
Gus country on the north coast, the
only part where the insurgents find
anything like security.
The trocha, says q Havana dispatch,
was costly mistake in many respects;
in others it served it's purpose. The
work was too extensively built. AL
though intended for a temporary pur-
pose, the bloclthouses in many in
stances were of brick and finished as if
for permanent use. Even the mortar
at the joints was nicely fooled. The
same disposition to erect massive and
permanent works that distinguished the
Spaniards in the days of the colonial
ton Of America exists to-day. The
trocha caused Maceo great deal OF
annoyance. 1t staid the passage of
large bodies of men cast and west. Only
small groups succeeded in crossing.
The maintenance of the trocha has
cost dearly in human life. The country
through which it runs is malarious
naturally, and the throwing up Of earth
works left pits which filled with stag
nant water in the rainy season. More
than 1000 soldiers have died from dis
ease contracted there. Even now many
are sick, mostly with chills and fever.
Yellow fever and dysentery have been
epidemic.
