WASHINGTON. Aug. 28,-Col. Cortijo. a broth
er-in-law Of Gen. Weyler and one OF the first
prisoners Of the Spanish-Amerioan war, being
captured on a Spanish transport shortly after
the beginning OF hostilities and held a prisoner
at Fort Mcpherson. Ca. has written a letter.
which was published in Ell impartial Of Madrid
on Aug. 10. in which he complains bitterly Of
his treatment while a prisoner in this country.
Col. Cortijo SAYS:
When We arrived at Atlanta the prisoners
were received with hootings. catcalls and
Kisses. and this was repeated upon our arrival
at Fort MCPHERSON. There we were searched,
our persons as well as our baggage, and every
thing taken away from us. They even took
way from me q small pocket case containing
scissors, penknife. mirror and needles. After
they had committed these outrages we were
put in an iron cage with two compartments.
divided by an iron plate. which contained no
red, and we were compelled to sleep on the
ground. The ten officers were allowed some
soldiers cots. which were very dirty and full Of
insects.
o the following day the twenty prisoners
were forced to use the same towel. We were
guarded by negroes, who were put on a per-
feet equality with us. We had to take our
meals without napkin or glass. and the food was
dirty and repugnant stuff. We were given only
one plate. one cup Of coffee. one fork and a knife
that would not cut. A mulatto Sergeant would
form us in line by twos to march us to our
meals between files OF armed negro soldiers.
and a 1.-THE place where our meals were given us
We were made aspectacle for the curious. which
to one Of my age and rank was not only a
humiliation. but a distinct nervous shock.
We ate with a lot OF soldiers. and no one moved,
stood w. or. showed any mark OF respect when
we entered the hall.
My rank in the regular army Of a civilized
States Government. treated me as a common
soldier. and treated us all with want of con-
fldence and contempt. All kinds Of humilia-
tions. were visited upon us. We were pa
raded as though we were showmen's exhibits
and had no privacy. The iron cage in which
we lived was made as cruel as possible. 1t
