DURATION OF THE VISIT UNCERTAIN.
At the office of the Spanish Consul-Genera IT
was stated last night that the duration of the
visit Of the vizcaya at this port was not known
She was originally expected to remain here a
week. but 1t said that sealed dispatches ad
dressed to Captain Eulate had been received
from the Legation at Washington and had been
delivered TO the captain, and that the maj
orders would not be known until the veSsel en-
tered the harbor.
A representative Of Consul General Baldasano
said yesterday afternoon: THE Consul General
has received numerous invitations from people
prominent In the social life Of New-York CITY
asking him TO attend with the officers OF the
Nzcaya a number Of dinners. one was TO have
been given for the officers last night. but the
fact that the vessel did not enter the harbor
caused its postponenent We also understand
that large public dinner will be arranged for
the officers during their visit here. We do not
know yet whether they will accept invitations
TO these social gatherings or not. The consul
General is inclined TO believe that out OF re-
spect 10 the American Navy over the recent ter
rible disaster to the Maine the officers ought TO
decline all invitations to social gatheri 1gs: but
on the other hand. others of the office mere, az
well OF the Legation at Washington, believe
that the officers of the cruiser should mingle
with the people of NewYOrk, TO the end that
they may fully understand that our relations
with this country are friendly
The official Of the Consulate who gave this
information declined to give any particulars as
TO the invitations received by the Consul Gen
eral. He stated that he did not know whether

THE CRUELTY IN CUBA.

Spanish policy in Cuba is similar to
Spanish rule in the past, both in Europe
and on this continent. Wanton and
unmitigated cruelty and oppression have
been the rule
In the present case of Cuba it is
simply horrid. Three years ago the
population of Cuba was over a million
and halt and since then full two-fifths
have perished, not in battle and not by
rebellion, but only for the reason they
cultivated the earth and raised food, a
share of which possibly the rebels might
get. They were compelled to abandon
their homes and congregate about
fortiti I'd towns where no provision was
made for their shelter or sustenance.
The penalty tor refusing was to be
branded as rebel and treated according.
ly, namely, punishable with death AS
Senator Proctor says, these people we're
driven into prison pens to starve.
By this policy enforced by General
Weyler, half a million of people had
perished before the American people
became fully aware of the situation and
took measures of relief Though the
edict is still in force, the starvation is in
a measure defeated by American charity.
These peaceable Cubans were condemn
ed to death for no othet crime than cul
tivating the soil to feed themselves, and
lest the rebels might get share. All
this is in line with murderous Spanish
| ingenuity.
1t is estimated that one.fourth of the
people of Cuba are today living on the
bounty OF the people of the United
States, while few weeks ago one-third
were starving. Spain deprived them Of
the opportunity to feed themselves and
the American people have gone to the
rescue and are feeding them. Spain
consigned them to death and the people
of the United States are sending supplies
and saving them from starvation.
Some who were forced into fortified
towns not easily reached are still suffer
ing, but these are comparatively few for
most of the suffering have been reached
and continue to receive supplies. This
private bounty is supplying some two
hundred thousand destitute Cubans,
saving them from famine and death.
Three hundred tons of corn meal and
fifty tons of bacon each week in Cuba,
costing about $4,000, will save those
people so cruelty aband doned and treat.
ed by Spain. Surely the civilized world
will properly appreciate this work, on
the part of Spain and this country. The
contrast is unmstakable and speaks for
itself. The inevitable conclusion must
he that Spain has held Cuba long enough
and should be relieved at once.
Strange to say, some of the Spanish
Cuban press demand that permitting
America to furnish supplies to starving
Cubans should be stopped, even though
those poor people should continue to
die of starvation. TheSpanish have de-
prived them Of the means of livelihood
and cannot or will not supply them
with food to keep them from starving.
This humane work will not be easily
stopped; in fact the attempt would be
dangerous.
Mr.. d. l.. st John is agent at Canton
to receive supplies and forward the same
to headquarters.

The government in control of a har-

CURES WITHOUT PAIN.


One of the Best Features of the New
Pile Cure.
Pyramid Pile Cure cures every form of
Piles without one particle of pain. This
desirable point is not obtained by the
use Of injurious opiates which simply
deaden and paralyze the nerves Of The
parts and make matters worse in the
long run, But it is done solely by its
remarkable healing and soothing effects
And while it thus gives immediate re
lief, at the same time the disease is not
merely checked, but a radical cure is
rapidly accomplished.
A nd the point we want to make clear
is that all this is done without particle
of pain.
This is one reason for the great pop.
ularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure and
constitutes one very lat difference be-
tween it and almost any other kind of
treatment tor piles.
Every kind OF surgical operation for
piles is excruciatingly painful besides
endangering the life of the patient and
in most cases is not to be comp lred with
the Pyramid Cure, neither in making
successful cures without pain nor in
cheapness and safety.
The pyramid Pile Cure has been before
the public too long, and it's merits recog-
nized by too many people to allow 1t to
be classed with the many salves, sup
positories, pills, etc, and you run no
risk in trying it, as is often the case with
new and untried preparations,
If you are ever troubled with any torn
OF piles or rectal disease do not forget
the Pyramid Pile cure. Prepared by the
Pyramid Drug Co., of Albion, Mich,
and sold by druggists at 90 cents per
package.
