PRETENSE AND TRUTH

The G b charges the new admlnistra-
tlon with following the Cleveland Cuban pol
ICY. That Is great mistake. Mr.. Cleye-
lands policy forced Fttzhugh Lee to notify
Olney that he would resign because of the
cleveland policy. The new Republican ad-
ministratiOn has reversed the Cleveland mol
icy and ordered Fitzhugh Lee to remain and
consider that he will be backed in the protec-
ton OF the rights Of American citizens-Min-
neapolis Journal March IT,
Gen. Draper, Of Massachusetts, may vet 90
to Havana as consul general to succeed Gen
Fltzhugh Lee He admits that President Nc
hinley has solicited him TO accept the appoint
ment. and. while he Is averse to doing so
and has so expressed himself to the president
he does not feel like ignoring the presidents
wishes in the matter.-Washington Associated
Press dispatch, March 10.
The two extracts quoted above tell
their own story of Republican humbug.
1t was an exceedingly small hole out
of which the Journal attempted to
crawl originally, and even that has now
been plugged up by facts. The policy
of neither administration toward Cuba
is to be gagged by its representative
as consul general to Havana. That
policy is measured by the course of the
president and his secretary of state, in
the case Of the new administrati ton as
of the old. 1t shows the stress of emer-
gency, when the people who have been
bowling for recognition, and for send
ing our army and navy to Cuba forth
with come down to define their Cuban
policy as dependent upon the person
Of our consul general at Havana
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee is simply the rep
resentative, for the time being. of the
United States in Cuba, and his position,
which the journal SO commended. was
the official position of President Cleve-
land and Mr.. Olney. The only differ
ence between them was a suppositi-
tious one. based upon dispatches that
turned out to be mostly fakes. How
ever that may be, the Journal has
committed itself by declaring that the
wide" difference between the policies
Of Cleveland and Mckinley is fixed by
the retention Of Fitzhugh Lee at Ha-
vana
And now comes the cruel truth, that
Gen. Lee is not to remain and con-
slider that he will be backed" but that
President Mckinley is pressing another
man for the place, and that Cen Lee
will have to give way to Gen. Draper,
If the latter shall yield to Mr. McKin-
1ey's solicitation. Such are the fortunes
of war when newspapers are not sin
cere, and seek desperately for some pre-
tense by which to justify a policy that
is dictated by partisanship.

Joe Tarantino, a sixteen-year-old son
of Sam Tarantino, of S25 Crosby street,
was adjudged insane in the Probate
court yesterday. The boys mother
testified that she is an American and
the father an Italian and that the
boy could not talk until he was eleven
years of age. He had habit of TAX
ing things that did not belong to him
and at one time took home a pair OF
horses, fed them, called them his pets
and kept them until the owner called
for them. He also took his mothers
watch and gave it away. A doctor

In The Second Game The Turner's
Start Out With A Good Lead
And Score An Easy Victory.

Ragged work with liberal share of
hard luck caused the Turner's down.
fall last night in the first game with
the Hayseeds. On the other hand,
while the Hayseeds had to contend
largely with tickle fortune they showed
as plain as they could that they were
not on the alley for their health. In 9TH
er words they were dead tired Of hold
ing down the bottom of the ladder all
by themselves, and called on the Tur-
ners to help them out. The Hayseeda
like sociability. They are compan-
ionable crowd. and in order to give
stamina to the bottom of the percen-
tage table, so that it might not become
top heavy and lose it's balance, they
took it upon themselves to throw the
first club down they came across and
thereby check the rapid stride upward
of their esteemed rivals, the G. Hills.
1t was the Turner's misfortune to be
the first club up against the sturdy
Hayseeds. Eighteen pins was all
they had to beat. 1t was really too
easy, to contemplate. Well, the Hay
score shows the rest.
The drubbing had the effect of re-
viving the Turner's energy, and they
had to either win the second game or
tear up the alley. A double defeat at
home would have been most dreadful
for a. team that is aspiring for cham
pionship honors, and by team looked
down upon as a fourth rater. The
Turner's therefor had nothing but hard
work before them. Sixty-four was
their first harvest, and the Hayseeds
didn't come within twenty-four CT
touching it. Another lead of eighteen
pins in the second inning shattered all
hopes for the Hayseeds, and the game
went to the Turner's by 81 pins, by
which they maintained their position
in the race.
The teams were made up as follows:

HOW LAS TUNAS FELL.
An American Colonel Writes
From the Battle Field.

1 iOli lhC DutllC l. lClu'
Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. ia
Letter has been received from
Fred. Funston, son of ex-Cong,
FRESHMAN Funston, of Kansas, a
Northumberland in the Cuban
army, giving graphic descrip-
ton of the capture of Las Tunas,
in which he took conspicuous
part. Col. Funston writes:
1--WE have just won the biggest
victory of this revolution by cap
turing the city of Las Tunas, with
it's p forts, with it's entire garri-
son and armament. The fight
lasted three days and two nights
and was a fearfully bloody affair.
On the night OF the 9th we threw
up entertainments on the north
side of the town, the nearest fort
being 400 yards distant and plac-
ed therein four breach-loading
field guns and Dudley pneumat-
ic dynamite gun. The pneumatic
dynamite gun did wonders, wreck,
ing the cavalry headquarters in
two shots and blowing the top off
Ft. Conception.
"At 10 a. IN. ON the 2Sth Col.
Calixto Enamarado, with a few
men, carried the latter work by as
sault, losing one third of his men
by the fire of adjoining forts. Al
II o'clock took place the grand
feature of the seige. Chief of
staff Menocal ordered the bugle
to sound the charge. Hardly had
the notes died away before Enam.
Orada, with 200 men, left the
shelter of the hill crest and start
ed for the fort. Many men fell,
but on they pushed until checked
by tangle of barbed wire fence,
where, in the open, they held their
position, firing at the Spanish in
the trenches of the fort until
Lieut. Carlos Garcia, son of the
general, led up $50 men to his sup
port. Then there was a wild rush
for the fort. The men cut the
barbed wire with their machetes
and Lieut.. Garcia, with the Cuban
flag in one hand and sword in the
other, leaped the trench, the men
following. 1t was like the bat
ties of story books, and it was
worth years of hum-drum life to
see it. All was over in moment
and the red and yellow flag gave
way to the Cuban, and we were in
the entertainments, only 400
yards away, cheering ourselves
hOarse. All the rest of the fear
fully hot day we pitched shells
at the Spanish forts and lodged
those that they sent at us.
"The morning of the Both saw
the end at hand. After an hours
bombardment the flag of truce
was sent up from the infantry, the
plucky commander having been
killed, his men surrendered and
the fight was over, but at a fear
full cost, One-third of the Cubans
having fallen. The Spaniards
had fought as heroes, losing forty
per cent. of the garrison in their
defense. We captured twenty
one forts, 1,050 rifles, with 1000.
600 rounds or ammunition, two
Krupp guns and a train load of
