will b conducted These maps are Prepared by the War D'I"7nent' from the
latest official inforn"tion, and are supplemental to the handbook of Military
Information alout Cuba" recently published and sent ont by the War Depart
ment. 1t is made in sections in order that it may be conveniently packed and
The m"p of Cuba shows every Nv village. telegraph station nd rural
troha. railroad, WACO road o. even footIath is clearly marked Is are also
the boundaries of provinces and judicial districts. al mountains, streams
swamrs sugar mills farms an shops are put down on this map On the map
II Havana province every house with the name of its owner appears and every
elevation OF depression in this land is indicated. 1t could rot be more minute
and complete The Havana map was made on the theory that the Cuban war
