Death Rate of the Spanish Army
in Cuba.


Inspector General Losada of the
Spanish forces in Cuba, recently issued
his official report, says the Medical
News, in which are indicated losses
almost without precedent i'll modern
times. His report shows that out of
the 200, 900, soldiers sent by Spain to
put down the instruction in the island
from the beginning Of February. 1895.
to the beginning of December of the
year just terminated. not more than
63, 900 Ga little over one-fourth) are at
this moment fit for service. The H.
900 are either dead or sent back to the
mouEherlaud i'll or wounded. The
causes of this unprecedented death
rate aud sick list are (besides casuali-
ties in action) mainly three: a. the
inappropriateness of the clothing furn-
ished to the European troops; (2) fa-
tigue; and (3) lack of food The re-
port, which does not apparently err on
the score of reticence. paints lurid
picture of military service in the CHIEF
Spanish colony. Under successive
generals the three years. campaign. in
spite of numberless royalist "victo-
ries,r leaves Cuba as precarious a
Spanish possession as ever; while a
generation must intervene before island
and motherland alike can recover from
the loss of blood, property and treas
ures. Scientific American.

Tuesday the Constitutional Con-
vention, bya vote of 56 to 81, re-
fused to separate municipal from
State elections so far as New Or
leans is concerned, but divorced
Shreveport and other cities that may
come under the provisions of the
law hereafter. The exception of
New Orleans was made through de-
ference to Mr.. Fitzpatrick, the boss
of the city regulars. Everything
the boss wants he gets. Evidently
he has his grip on number of the
country delegates and rules those
from the city with an iron hand
If there be any good reason why an
exception should be made III this
case OF New Orleans it is not appar.
ent. The good people of the city
and of the State want the municipal
and State elections divorced, but the
bosses of New Orleans object to the
plan so far as their city is concerned
because they can do some trading OF
the State ticket on election day
The convention is working, and ha'
worked all along, on the line of fac
iional politics. 1t is not working
for the good of the State or for tht
welfare of the Democratic party
though it claims to be doing so
Fitzpatrick is the political boss o.
New Orleans, and will be in posi-
ton to have his way in the politics
of the State. The surprising, a
we'll as disgusting, part of the bust
ness is, that so many of the countr,
delegates have become his dupes o
tools. -Homer Journal.
