but there were certainly not more than
500, as Colonel Perez admitted, although
he had distinctly claimed to have about
1000 men. This force Of 500 is supposed

In an interview with General Garcia
the correspondent called attention to
this situation. Garcia replied: II be-
lieve that we should be left to the west
and north to prevent Pando making a
junction with Lnares. We can do
that" In spite OF this warning, Gen.
eral Garcia and his force were taken to
the east and landed with the army. only
to be transported in part back again to
prevent the very movement which
Garcia had predicted. The solution of
the difficulty evidently lies In brilliant
and quick attack. The unreliability of
the Cuban statements as to their forces
may be better understood when IL is
known that the 1900 men Perez promised
10 send to help the marines numbered
exactly 50, OF whom Il are on the sick
list from overeating.

Europe Cannot Limit the War to America.
The st. James Gazette recently, CON-
menting upon the prospect of American
forces attacking the Spanish coast, said:
"The reception Of the news evidences a
change in public opinion which. at the
commencement Of tho war, thought Eu.
rope should notify tho United States
that the war must be confined to Amer.
lean waters. 1t is now recognized that
tho Americans are fully entitled to
make war in their own way, and thoy
are indeed driven to retaliate upon
Spain in this manner, owing TO tho tac-
tics which Spain has chosen to pursue.

latter respecting private property
rights, as we'll as those of civil and
ecclesiastical corporations. The re-
nouncement by Spain includes all
documents which exclusively refer
to the renowned or coded sover-
eighty which exist in the archives
of the peninsula, and when these
documents refer only in part the
part must be supplied, on request.
Spain is to have the same rights
with respect to documents now in
the coded territory. In this ces-
sion are included the rights of the
crown of Spain, and of it's authorities

mined by Congress.
| Article guarantees free exercise
of religion in the coded territory

iards residing in coded territory

inal matters to the tribunals in

The twelfth article provides fol
jurisdiction of civil and crimina
cases pending the ratification of the
treaty, and holds that present Law
shall remain in force until new

fences in criminal cases under thu

18th article provides that literary

Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines
and Guam, shall continue to b.

tifc, literary and other works, which
shall not be dangerous to public

COMPLAINED WITH JUSTICE.


Crows Nest Pass Railroad.
Specia. Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.
OTTAWA. May 1.-THE commission APP
pointed to investigate complaints of work
men on the Crows Nest Pass railway OF
unwarranted hardsh.ps, which 1t is alleged
they were called upon to undergo. has
handed in its report TO the dominion gov
eminent. The commission visited the scene
OF operations for the personal observation
of the actual conditions and spent more
than two months in taking evidence from
every quarter from which complaint was
coming. 1t Is shown that the statements
Of the laborers were, in the main. borne
out by the evidence.
II is found difficult to place the blame
where II fairly belongs. The Canadian
Pacific officials claim TO be ignorant Of
half of what was going on. The evidence
shows that m many Instances parties who
were working as long as six months would
at the end OF that time have. with all the
circumstances attaching to the engage
ment. scarcely funds enough TO square up.
II would. therefore, according to this state
ment. be as much as nine months before
many Of the employs would be able TO get
their heads above water.
The principal ground of complaint was
the time II took. after the unwarranted
exactions OF the contractors were satisfied,
to work up enough money 10 bring the un-
fortunate iaborer back to civilization
