MORE WEYLER DENIAL.

rBy Gable to The Associated Press.l
HAVANA, March 1S, 189S.-Late last
night. correspondent saw Don Francisco
de los Santos Guzman, to whom General
Weyler. the former Captain General of
Cuba. is alleged to have written a let
ter. published in the New York Journal
yesterday, apparently suggesting, among
other things, the destruction of the
United States battleship Maine.
Guzman lives at the aristocratic suburb
of Cerro in beautiful house handsomely
furnished in European style and adorned
with valuable antiques. statues, paint
ings, porcelains and tapestries. The dis
tinguished former President of the Cortes
was much surprised when asked if he had
received such letter. He said
.sI have not received any such letter
from General Weyler, and for that rea-
son it is impossible that any one could
have stolen such letter from me. am
ignorant of the existence of such a let
ter and consequently of it's alleged son-
tents
Senior Francisco Diaz, the reporter of
the Union Constitutional" who is said
to have given copy of the alleged let
ter to a journal correspondent at Ha-
vana, was even more surprised when
questioned on the subject. He remarked
1T is the first time I have heard of such
a letter from General Weyler or from
any one else. This being true of co4,ee,
I could not have given an alleged copy
to any ONE

a sensation has been stirred up among
the teachers in the Hoboken Training
School over the alleged religious con-
struction of a text book recently intro
duced into the school. The book is Paint
ers History of Education" 1t is used
in all training schools in the State and in
several other States.
When the teachers in the Hoboken
school first became acquainted with the
volume they began to comment upon GER
tain passages relating to the Catholic
faith. notwithstanding the authors state
ment that the history was an impartial
presentation of the truth. they aver that
in their estimation facts were distorted
in such a manner as to stigmatize the
Catholic Church. Everything relating to
Professionalism in connection with educa-
ton was, it is alleged declared to be the
only truth while Catholicism was re-
garded with apparent prejudice and dis
trust In early days religion and educa-
ton were closely connected and histories
of one invariably involve the other to
some extent. 1t was upon this fact that
the alleged prejudiced views contained in
the book were based.
Under the head of Luther and the Re-
formation" the text book quotes the
shorter catechism directly against the
Catholic Church, and the section devoted
to the Jesuits is equally dogmatical, it is
said. A training school pupil in describ-
ing the bood said: mot even by accident
was anything said in favor of the Catholic
Church. The book is doctrinal in almost
every passage and sectarian in every
line"
When a prominent clergyman was
shown the volume he said
.'It has no place in our public schools.
1t is a recognized fact that the history of
education is an essential study, but his
tory and fact should be taught, not anti
Catholic. anti-Protestant or anti-anything
else.'
The attention of the school authorities
has been called to the matter and some
definite action will probably be taken at
the next meeting of the Board. City SUI
perintendent A. J. Demares said that he
introduced the book into the school upon
the recommendation of the State Exam
iners. He stated that the matter would be
settled in day or two In justice to all.
The history is published by Appleton &
Co. of New York.
