SURE HE'S A SPANISH SPY

Washington, May S.-Chief Wilkie of the
treasury secret service today expressed
his unqualified belief in the guilt of the
man arrested at his direction last night as
a Spanish spy. Al 1.-The circumstances in
the case, many OF which Mr.. WilkIe sets
forth, he says, lead up 20 this irresu-
bic conclusion.
He preferred that the story Of the mans
arrest should not have been made public
at this time, but he feels now that an in
correct version has leaked out that it is
just as well that the correct story should
be told. The mans name is not Raw
nngs. as originally announced, but George
Downing. apparently about SO years OF
age. feet inches in height. Of athletic
build. and Bohemian in appearance.
Mr.. Wilkie tells an interesting story Of
the mans doings lately and 0 fthe steps
which led up to his arrest.
Downing" ne says, is an English
man by birth, but Is naturalized Amer
lean and was formerly chief yeoman on
the cruiser Brooklyn. His discharge from
that ship dates about two months ago.
Our information shows that on last Fri
day he had a conference with Lieutenant
CarTaazas, who was a naval attache OF
the Spanish minister, Polo. and who was
then at Toronto. He furnished Carranzas
general information about the navy yards
and particularly about the Brooklyn yard
After one and half hours talk he came
10 Washington at the direction Of the
lieutenant. He left Toronto Friday after
noon for this city. Before leaving Toronto.
Carranzas gave Downing an address. ap-

CONSUL BRICE CANNOT FORGET

Washington, May Alex c. Brice,
United States consul at Mantanzas, is in
this city with his family. He is on his way
home, Bedford, Iowa, where he will try TO
forget the scenes of horror, which, he says
aare equaled by nothing in Dante's In
ferno.
There VIII be one thing, though, that
Mr.. Brice can never forget. He says ne
was forced to leave 800 citizens Of Amer
lea. Some Of these havealready been
slaughtered by the Spanish, he believes.
Others will be. Many will die of starva-
ton.
Mr.. Brice said today: 1.-THE condition of
some of them was as bad as that Of
the reconcentradoes. The greater portion
. fthem were Cubans by birth who had
become naturalized in this country, but
some were genuine blue-blooded Yankees.
There were many women in the num-
Der. 1t was impossible for them to leave,
not having money enough even TO buy
food.
The Norwegian captain Of the vessel
on which I escaped refused to take the
American citizens. Had it been an Amer
lean vessel I would have insisted. Four or
five of the Americans who heard was to
depart came down to the shore. They
we're deeply affected and tearfully begged
10 betaken away. I told them to take to
the bush and join the insurgents If they
could and advise their friends to do the
same. I could not sleep that night aboard
the Norwegian vessel. The memory Of
these poor Americans and their probable
Il
in my birth.
Some Of the Americans have already
been killed or died Of starvation, under
stand. A few of them have escaped to
the insurgents The most Of them. how
ever, Will suffer death either from starva-
ton or at the hands Of the Spanish
These are the things 1 try to forget, but
