SPANIARDS AT HAVANA.
Official Orders Said to Have Been Is
sued to Treat Americans With
the rlost "Gentleness."

NEW YORK. May 16.-A special to
the World from Havana says: The
Spanish officials at the palace are much
concerned over the rumors of the forth
coming message from President Nc
Kinley. Orders have been issued, it is
said, that all Americans be treated with
the most "gentleness" hereafter, so
that there may be no possible cause for
complaint 1t is understood the Amer
leans confined in Havana prisons have
been moved to new cells, and are given
many comforts that they never have
had before. la Lucia" was warned
yesterday against publishing anything
regarding the attitude of the new adj
ministration at Washington, as it was
feared the insurgents would be encour-
aged thereby.
A special to the World" from Wash
ington states that w. j. Calhoun Spec
ial Commissioner to Cuba, has sent in
his first report not on the Ruiz case,
which it was said would occupy his
whole attention. but on affairs on the
island The Worlds" dispatch says:
In his preliminary report, received by
the State Department to-day Mr.. Cal
houn says: I, of course, have not had
time to make thorough investigation,
but the information obtained warrants
me in saying that affairs in the island
are in a deplorable state and that the
reports you have received regarding the
destitute condition of American citi-
Zens are by no means exaggerated. But
am not prepared to advise immediat e
relief as the means of successful distri-
button are doubtful VIII communicate
later"
This dispatch was hurriedly trans
lated and forwarded to the President
at Philadelphia. Abstracts We're also
sent of similar telegraph reports made
by all the consular Representative in
Cuba.
Consul-General Lee, in a cablegram
received last night, but which was to-
day forwarded in brief to the President.
reiterated his former declarations on
the restitution and suffering in Cuba.
He expressed the firm conviction that
unless prompt relief be afforded many
American citizens must necessarily die
from starvation.
The indictment against Weyler was
strengthened to-day by another report
from Consul-General Lee, and from
special dispatches from Consul Barker
at Segua. Consul Brice at Matanzas
and at Santiago. The only Consul
whose reports differ from the others is
