for Two Young Men.
NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Of the forty-two
persons who landed with General Maceo
near Baracoa, Cuba, nearly two and a half
years ago. only three survive the others
including General Maceo, having died either
on the battlefield or in the hospitals or pris-
ons of Cuba. Two of the survivors are
young Americans-Frank Agramonte and
Julia Sainz. Word has been received IN
this city that, through the efforts of DIR.
Pulaski F. Hyatt, United States consul at
Santiago de Cuba, they have been released
from Castle Moro and will sail for New
York on next Saturday. Frank Agramonte
is the son of Prof. Emilio Agramonte of
this city. His family is one of means, so
that the burden of his Imprisonment has
been lightened through their efforts. Saiuz
is an orphan, and DR.. Hyatt has provided
him with food and comforts out of the $780,
900 fund appropriated by Congress for the
relief of Americans in Cuba.
The young men Cboth are about twenty
four years old sailed with Maceo The
party was intercepted near Baracoa. In
the skirmish ten soldiers and a Spanish Of
ficer were killed. Agramonte and Sainz
were separated from their companions, and
fled to the woods. They were captured
few days after the engagement Owing to
the death of the officer, the affair assumed
DR.. Hyatt. Their youth appealed to him.
and he saved them from being shot. They
were imprisoned in Castle Moro.
For two years and a half they have been
inmates of the prison. They did not suf-
fer all of the hardships incidental to con-
finement in Spanish jails. Throughout the
period of incarceration the authorities were
kind to them. The governor of the prison
allowed any article that bore DIR. Hyatt
stamp to be given to them This was un>
usual. OF course, the consul assumed the
responsibility of their not attempting 10
escape or taking contraband articles
When General Weyer visited Santiago
DR.. Hyatt made a personal appeal to him
for the young men. On his return visit to
the American consul General Weyler
brought up the subject. Just before Weyler
left the island for Spain DR.. Hyatt wrote
to him, recalling his promise to release
them. DR.. Hyatt then returned to America.
Now comes the news that the release of
the men was among the last acts OF the
Governor General. The Agramontes were
overjoyed when they heard the news Mrs
