STARVATION IN CUBA.
Horrible Spectacle Of Women and Chlld-

Horrible Spectacle OF Women and ohld-
rem Dying from hunger.
Advices from Washington states
that a case OF the most profound dis
tress prevails among many thousands
of people in Cuba. Starvation not
only impends but is an actual fact,
The president has been informed of
the facts from sources whose credita-
bility cannot be doubted. He had
gone to the length of his constitution
81 power in calling the state of affairs
to the attention of the American peo.
pie. The state department has used
all Of its authority to mitigate the
conditions there, and the letter to the
public sent out by secretary Sherman
tne day before Christmas pointed out
the way to further alleviate the mis-
cradle condition of the recorcentrades
Today the sum OF IS. 600 vas received
by Assistant Secretary Day from
certain charitably disposed people
whose names are not disclosed, and
this sum will be remitted by telegraph
early tomorrow morning to Consul
General Lee for disbursement among
the mora pressing cases. 1t is hoped,
Dy the department OF state that the
American people will come to the
r<lief and that promp ly by su5scriq-
tons of money, clothing and supplies
OF various kinds. The newspapers are
expected TO lend a generous aid in
c,rryIsg forward this movement.
The machinery for distribution has
bean provided by the state department
and Consul General Lee has under
taken, with the aid of the American
consular officers in Cuba to give per-
scaal attention to the al!eviation OF
distress by the distributing OF the gifts
of the American people.
One lire of steamers plying between
New York and Havana, the Ward
Line, it is said, has undertaken to for
ward any COL tributions Of goods to
General Lee At Havanna, and it is be-
lie7ed that the American railroads will
do their part by carrying the goods to
the seaboard. The Spanish authori
ties have consented to remit all duties
on relief supplies so forwarded. The
state department directs that they
be sent direct to Consul General Lee,
either money by draft or check or
goods. Consul General Lee tonight
cabled the state department just what
is wanting at this juncture, and bis
list IS IS follows: Summer clothing,
second hand or otherwise, princip ipally
for women and children; medi
clues for fever, including a large pro
portion of quinine; hard bread, com
meal, bacon, rice, lard, potatoes,
beans, peas, ssl fish, principally cod
fish, and any canned goods and espsc-
ially condensed milk for the starving
children. Money will also be useful to
secure nurses, medicines and for many
other necessary purposes

tiny stream of powder struck the heat

powder exploded with report that
made the earth tremble. 4 moment
later there was a scene that made sick
the hearts of those wetching from a
nearby nil. In the smoke that rose
from toe explosion they saw human
beings run bliudly here and there
over the bill, falling and rising only
to fall again, as they frantically rush
ed about, blinded and powder burned,
madly trying to extinguish their fl sm-
ing clothing. Those who were unhurt
ran to the aid OF the unfortunate ones,
smothering the flaming garments CT
cutting the clothing from their bodies.
One man was blown or rolled COM
ple.ely down the high bluff 200 feet,
nearly to the river.
People in the neighborhood ran to
the scene of the explosion and the
work of giving assistance to the in

olackeued groaning figures, some OF
whom lay almost perfectly nude. 4
number of the injured were able to
walk from the scene, while others
were provided apdgentle hands placed

nearby, which was improvised into a
