There is reason to believe that this

Denies That Col. Ruiz Came Under a
Flag of Truce.

The following letter from Colonel Nestor
Aranguren to the New York Herald appears
in today's issue:
There has come to my hand a copy OF
your paper printed in New York, and l am
sorry to see how has been judged an act
which is of such transcendental Importance
to the cause of Cuban independence, and
as in the said paper the facts are COM
mented on in an unfavorable manner for
the Cubans who struggle for their sacred
ideal, perhaps owing to lack of knowledge
of the true facts, l address you this letter.
which, l hope you will be kind enough to
publish.
This is not the time for me to defend nv
fellow countrymen by means of the press
History will judge the facts and the world
shall pass judgment. / wish, however, to
refute the calumny which has been exposed
to civilization, that the bearer of flag of
truce was executed when he entered our
ranks under white flag. 1t is false, a
thousand times false.
Lieutenant Colonel Ruiz wished to have
an interview with me, and did not grant
1t, because knew he wanted to talk about
my accepting autonomy. / know that word
was sent to him to give it up. and his
friends in Havana, who also knew me- ad-
vised him also to give it up. He, however.
persisted. and his temerity lost him his
life.
cannot De unIaltnIul to my oath to die
or to obtain independence from the Spanish
yoke, which but four days previously I
had signed. together with my companions
in arms in this province, in the protest is
sued. As a soldier it was my duty to order
a verbal court martial, which tried Lieu
tenant Colonel Ruiz and had him executed.
''The said lieutenant colonel entered our
camp guided by two Spanish guides, who
were deserters from our forces, and without
any flag OF truce or documents of any kind
other than what has already been said
And as soon as he came to my presence he
commenced before my officers and troops
to make us promises of pardon and am
nesty. and to offer us autonomy. I leave it
to the people Of the great American nation
to say what was the duty Of soldier of
the country.
THE details Of this event are expressed
with accuracy in the newspaper FL Yara.

PROGRESS OF ST. JOHN,
George r. Baird Says That New
Brunswick is FRirly Prosperous

George F. Baird of St John N B. a
prominent vessel owner and well-known
Canadian politician was in the city for a
few hours recently, his mission here being
to confer with Senator Proctor regarding
some business matters in which they are
mutually interested. For twelve years Mr..
Baird was a member of the Canadian par
Lament.
Lumber, which is one of our principal
industries, is quiet" he said to a Star re-
porter while waiting for a New York train
at the Pennsylvania depot. There was an
overproduction in spruce last year in Great
Britain, and the duties under the Dingley
law keep out of the United States 50
you see We are not in it just at present
However, New Brunswick is fairly pros
porous. St. John has forged ahead per-
ceptibly in the last two years. She is COM
ing to be recognized as the outlet for ship
ping goods to the west; in other words the
winter port of Canada. Three lines of
steamships have been developed in the last
two years. These vessels run direct TO Great
Britain. Some of them are subsidized
Our federal government withdrew the
subsidy to the Allen line that ran To Port
land, Me, because of the national cry that
Canadian commerce must go through Cana
dian ports. The vessels of that line called
at Halifax and carried the Canadian mails.
st. John is the farthest inland port and
it is open all the year around. Therefore
we are III tlAt btSl poSiibH W lHt
products of western Canada. quarter
century ago st. John was the fourth port
in the world in the extent of shipping, but
the revolution from sail TO steam and from
wood to steel proved ruinous.
"Our citizens are now taking hold OF Eng
lish-built iron and steel craft The Ameri-
can duties are SO high that We are COM
PEELED to look to Great Britain. We are not
unfriendly to the United States. We visit
back and forth in a social way, but we
can't get together on business because of
the high tariff wall"
