STARVED BY SPANIARDS
NO FOOD FOR WOMEN AND
CHILDREN IN CUBAN CITIES
tiagO de Cuba Report That Sup
plies of Provisions Are Running
Low-Spanish Are Leaving the
Small Towns and the Insurgents
Are Active.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 29.-The
German steamer Remus, from Ham
burg, for Baltimore, touched ait Port
Antonio, this island, early today and
landed there AL German, Cuban, Brit
ish and American refugees from San
tiago de Cuba The refugees are most
ly women and children, many of them
persons Of refinement. There was no
accommodation for them on board the
Remus, and therefore they were COM
PEELED to stay on deck all night, and
they had nothing to eat, as the steam
er was not provisioned for so many
people. The refugees, not having any
breakfast, were very hungry when they
arrived, and were worn out by their
comfortless night at sea. One OF them
said:
I'VE NAV as well starve here as
there. The Spaniards have attached all
the food in Santiago de Cuba for the
army, and the civil population of that
city, about 10000 persons, is almost en-
tirely without provisions"
Many of the children and women en-
the Remus We're sick from lack Of food
Pulaski D. Hyatt, the United States
there some time ago for Jamaica, I'M
der instructions from Washington,
came to the rescue of the refugees, and
at his own expense caused dinner to
be prepared for all of them on the
wharf where they landed. The refugees
confirm the reports that the Spaniards
are abandoning the small cities and
the plantations which they have been
guarding, burning the plantation build
ings before leaving them.
The insurgents activity has greatly
increased recently owing to the news
that they have received from the
United States, and they are raiding up
to the very outworks of Santiago de
Cuba and Guantanamo.
The city of Santiago de Cuba, when
the refugees left, was in a state of semi
panic, fearing the blockade of the port
by the United States fleet. There were
about $4,000 Spanish troops there and in
the vicinity. But food, excepting army
supplies, is running low. The agents
of the insurgents communicate daily
with the city of Santiago de Cuba.

SPANS FIGHTING SHIPS.
Washington Anxious to Know
Where They Will Strike.

WASHINGTON, April 29-The navy
department received this morning news
of the sailing of the Spanish fleet. The
statement that the vessels when leav-
ing st. Vincent were headed in a south
erly direction, is valueless, as an indi-
cation as to the real course of the fleet.
The majority Of the naval officers here
feel confident that the Spanish fleet
will next appear at the Canary islands,
about half way between Cape Verde
and Spain, and lying directly in the
hemeward path of the ships.
AS the Canaries are Spanish islands,
and possess some Notifications worthy
of consideration, it may be that the
fleet will be allowed to remain there
for some time. as the islands form q
good strategic base.
What most concerns the naval officers
just now Is how to learn when the fleet
does arrive there. The cable to the
Canaries being in Spanish hands, the
arrival of the fleet would be kept secret
The intended visitation of the convert
ed American liners to the coast of
Spain may hasten home the return of
the Cape Verde squadron, for it is be-
lieved that squadron comprises about
ali of the vessels in the Spanish navy
that are speedy and powerful enough
to warrant an attack upon vessels of
the ST. Paul class.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-04-30

glorious victories. Some Of them want
q speedy invasion of Cuba, others say
that it will be certain death for Ameri-
can soldiers to be ordered to the island
at this season, just as the rainy Pc
Rod and the yellow fever epidemic is
coming on. But, since war has been
declared, they would advise, by way of
diversion, an attack on the far distant
Philippines or a dash to the Canary
islands.
There are many startling statements
being sent out from various quarters
Of the world concerning the sailing Of
the Spanish fleet and it's destination.
People along the Atlantic are fright
ened by the possible Smelling Of the
seaports.
SPANS policy thus far is a mystery.
In the navy department there is feel
ing that the pressure of public senti-
ment in Spain, where our naval
strength is vastly underestimated, will
compel the Cape Verde fleet to come
over and seek an engagement with
ours, no matter how desperate the ven
ture may appear to the trained judg-
ment of the Spanish naval authorities
In the war department there is a no.
ton that a DETECTION will be made as
if to attack one or more of our Atlantic
points in the hope Of thus drawing
away part of our fleet from their
present base in the West Indian wat
ers, and for the purpose of capturing
a convenient base on our coast, if
that should prove practicable
In the midst of all these conflicting
reports, it is not surprising if the pub
lie becomes suspicious. The country
has learned to be impatient. 1t crowd
ed congress into declaring war with
SPAIN And it expects that this great
nation ought to be able to accomplish
the expulsion Of Gen. Blanco and his
army from Cuba in short order. Here
we are, powerful nation of 10000, 600;
right at our feet lies Cuba fostering
and foul with SPANS misrule and
cruelty. Spain is keeping away with
her navy. The ancient Notifications
of Havana and MantanZas, it is
claimed, could easily be laid low by
our heavy guns. Will it be done?
Perhaps this question can be better
answered by the time the senate acts
upon the war tariff and bond bill pass
ed in the house today.

1t is only short time since President
Mckinley was burdened, if not bored,
with a plethora of advice from many
statesmen who ventured to give their
opinion to the president about how to
manage our affairs with Spain. Be-
tween the peace-at-any-price faction
and the lingo crowd, the president got
pretty far out at sea, as his message to
congress on the subject plainly showed.
But congress saw fit to lay down
vigorous policy for the president, and
directed him to enforce it. And now
the military experts and skilled strate-
gists are about as numerous as were
the statesmen, but a few days ago
They all have a plan of warfare and
each is able to tell the president exactly
how to bring the war to a speedy end
