IN CUBA TO-DAY.


The situation in Cuba today is perfect
ly clear and simple. In the western
provinces we find between three and
four hundred thousand people penned
up in starvation stations, and a prey to
all kinds of epidemic diseases. They
are without means and without food,
and with only the shelter that the dried
palm leaves Of their hastily erected
bohios affords, and in the rainy season
that is now upon them that is no shell
ter at all, writes Stephen Bonsal in
Harper's Weekly. They have less
clothing than the Patagonian savages,
and half naked, they sleep upon the
ground, exposed to the noxious vapors
which these low-lying swamp lands
emit. They have no prospect before
them but to die, or, what is more cruel,
to see those of their own flesh and blood
dying about them, and to be powerless
to succor and to save. About these
starvation stations the savage sentries
pace up and down, with ready rife and
barred matchete, to shoot down and to
cut up any one who dares to cross
the line. And yet, who are these
men who are shot down in the
night like midnight marauders? And
why is it they seek, with all the
desperate courage Of despair, to cross
that line where death is always await
ing their coming, and almost invaria-
bly, overtakes them? They are attempt
ing nothing that history will preserve
upon its imperishable tablets, or even
this passing generation remember.
No, they are simply attempting to get
beyond the starvation lines to dig their
potatoes and yams to bring home again
to the hovel in which their families are
housed with death and hunger all about
them. And they do their simple duty,
not blinded as to the danger or with
out warning as to their probable fate,
for hardly an hour Of their intermin'
able day passes without their hearing

! LONDON, March Is, 1S97.-The annual
meeting of the Council of the National
Liberal Federation was held at Norwich
today and presided over by DIR. Robert
Spence Watson, who moved the following
resolution
THAT this Council of the National
Liberal Federation, representing more
than seven hundred Liberal Associations
in England and Wales, respectfully ten
ders its congratulations to Her Majesty
the Queen on attaining this the sixtieth
year of her reign: gratefully recognizes
with loyal appreciation her constitutional
practice, her ever-ready sympathy, and
the gracious influence of her personal
example, and earnestly hopes that she
may long be spared to witness peace
throughout her empire and the continued
progress of her people,"
An amendment that the proposed alter
alton of the rules be favorably consider
ed and reported upon by the Executive
Committee was carried.
The annual report was then presented
and President Watson in moving its
adoption took occasion to deny that the
question of Home Rule had been put into
the background. The Liberal party, he
declared, could not go back. They had
nailed Home Rule to the mast. (Cheers.)
