ness was simply farcical.
+ ''"The country, as I have said, was
studded with little forts, and into these
forts were put small garrisons, and here
the troops remained and nothing was
done. OF course there were always the
guerrillas, and they were the choicest
scoundrels on the top Of the earth. The
guerrillas are composed Of negroes, Gu
bans and natives of the Canary islands
They are the scum Of Cuba. Under the
direction Of the Spaniards they were
formed into rowing bands to cut off the
insurgents and generally to ravage the
country. The latter part of their duty
they carried out in the most effectual
manner. They have simply galloped
about, numbering all they could meet
with. They set fire to the houses Of in
nocent people. They murdered the inno-
cent people themselves if they made the
least resistance. They ravaged the coun-
try. -"2
=, "At the same time there is little to
choose between the insurgents and the
guerrillas. The former blow up trains,
set fire to tobacco and sugar plantations,
use dynamite which had been sent by
the junta in, New York for the most
diabolical purposes. Indeed, upon the
estate with which I was connected
it was found necessary to- organize a
regiment Of soldiers to protect alike the
property and the men from the violence
of the insurgents It was a favorite pas
time Of the latter to come upon peace
able Cinnamon working upon the estates
and murder them. They cut the heads
of ten Cinnamon in this manner to my
own knowledge. This was done to make
the situation appear desperate to prove
that so long as the Spaniards remained
in power there would be nothing but
anarchy upon the island s As for the
Cubans themselves, Mr.. Skate said that
they almost to q man sympathize with
the, insurgents, Of whom, at the present
moment, not more than 5, 600 could take
the field. s The Cubans are q. peaceable
people, hardworking, industrious. They
desire to be allowed to live in peace.
They have been ground to the earth BY
mirule. Innumerable fortunes have
been made ont Of them
. The Spaniards have the most ridicu-
;lous ideas Of the United States, $ con-
tinued Mr.. Skaife. S Even officers Of the
