AMERICANS FEEL
UNSAFE IN CUBA
So There Is a Great Exodus
From the Distured
Island.
Secretary Olney Has Demanded From
Spanish Authorities an Explana.
tion of RuiZ'S Death.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 22.-Secre-
tary Oiney has demanded in Havana and
in Madrid full explanation OF the death
OF DR.. Ricardo Ruiz, who was secretly ar
rested on charge of completely in derail-
ing train carrying Spanish troops.
Ruiz was said to have been a naturalized
American citizen. He died in Jail un-
der suspicious circumstances. Other pris-
oneEs said he was murdered, but the Span
ish authorities insist that he committed
suicide.
Ever since the arrest of Ruiz the au-
thorities have refused to give Consul
General Lee any Information, and it was
not until be made a peremptory demand
for Ruiz's body that the Marquis OF Ahu-
mada issued the necessary order. When
the body was turned over to Consul
General Lee an inspection showed that
the face and head hao been battered in.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Feb. IA dis
patch to the Sun from Havana says: The
attitude assumed by Consul-General Lee
in the case of the death of the American
citizen, Ricardo Ruiz, has made the Amer
lean representative very unpopular among
the Spaniards. The communication sent
to General Lee by the Marquis of Album
ada is highly praised by the Spaniards.
| The case is very similar to that of Charles
GOWN, who was undoubtedly assassinated
by the Spaniards. In that cases all the
protests of General Lee were useless
against the formal official denial by the
Marquis of Ahumada that Gown had been
killed by the Spaniards and in the face of
the indifference shown in the matter by
the American administration.
Ricardo Ruiz was slain in a manner
called componente here. that is, he was
struck over the head with a piece of wood
or iron and his skull was fractured so that
he died. But how can this fact be proved
if the Spanish authorities certify that he
committed suicide by dashing his head
against the wall? The autopsy can only
show that the man suffered from violence,
but whether inflicted by him self or by an
other person is difficult to tell.
Since the death OF Gown the belief is
general here that the Spaniards can kill
all the American citizens in Cuba without
being called TO account for the crimes.
The great majority of the American resi-
dents of Cuba are leaving the island.

LEE HAS RESIGNED.
Such Is the Report That Comes Fro
Key Vest.

6nch Is the Report mat Comes From
Key Hest.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Feb. pa dis
patch to the Herald from Havana via Key
West says: Consul General Lee hiss re-
signed His letter rendering his resigna-
ton under certain conditions goes by the
next mail. He determined some days ago
to lake such a step if he were not upheld
in his efforts to protect all American citi-
zens in Cuba.
The ConsuI-General asked the State De-
partment that lie be authorized to de-
mand the release of citizens of the United
States confined in Cuban prisons under
the same illegal circumstances as was the
ill-fated Ruiz. Snch authorization has
not been granted him.
Spanish warships in Cuban waters have
since Sunday been concentrating in the
harbor of Havana. This is regarded here
as very significant in view of the impor-
tant incidents of the last few days.
Great anxiety is felt at the palace and
in all official circles at the news from
Cienfuegos, which is that that city is in
mutlny of the Spanish troops. Large ar
rears of pay are due the army in Cuba,
and the discomfort caused by this has cul-
minated in open disobedience in the
Spanish ranks in the Cienfuegos district.
The insurgents in the eastern end of the
island have captured Bayamo, an impor-
tant town in Santiago.

SUPERB SKILL.
That Is the Kind Required Certain CasesThe Afflicted ~
Francisco and Vicinity Have at Their One
Need Suffer.

1t is often said that San Francisco is
overrun with doctors. which may be, and
doubtless Is, true.
But, then, why are so many people sick I?
Why do they continuously take medi-
cines, andye never get well The ex-
planation is easy enough. 1t is because
they secure only ordinary doctors, and or
binary doctors cannot cure them. Nor
can worthless belts or so-called "Restora.
tives" or "Invigorators'' or "Vitalizers."
