provisions of all kinds were interdicted
The fields were laid waste, dwellings I'M
rooted and fired, mills destroyed, and, in
short everything that could desoiate the
land and render il unfit for human hablta-
ton or support was commanded by one or
the other of the contending parties and
executed by all the powers at their dispo-
sal BY the time the present administra-
ton took office a year ago, a reconcentra-
tion-so-called-had been made effective
over the better part of the four central
and Western provinces, Santa Clara, Ma
tanzas, Havana and Pinar del Rio. The
agricultural population, 10 the estimated
number of 100000 or more, was herded
within the towns and their immediate vi
cinage deprived of the means of support,
rendered destitute of shelter, left poorly
clad and exposed to the most unsanitary
condition. As The scarcity of food in
creased with the devastation of the depop-
ulated acreas Of production, desttution
and want became mi~ery and starvation.
Month by month the death rate increased
in an alarming ratio. BY March, 1897, ac-
cording to conservative estimates for the
official Spanish sources, the mortality
among the reconcentradoes, from starva-
ton and the diseases thereto incident ex-
ceeded 50 per centum of their total number.
No practical relief was accorded to the
destitute. The overburdened towns. al
ready suffering from the general dearth
could give no aid. So-caled zones of
cultivation" established within the imme-
date area of effective military control
about the cities and fortified camps proved
hlusory as remedy for the suffering.
The unfortunates being, for the most
part, women and children with aged and
helpless men. enfeebled by disease and
hunger, could not have TILED the soil with
out TOOLS seed or shelter. for their own
support or for the supply of the cities.
Recommendation, adopted avowedly as a
war measure in order to cut off the re.
sources of the insurgents, worked its pre-
destined results. As l said in my message
of last December, Il was not civilized war
fare: it was determination. The only
peace 1t could beget was that of the will
derness and the grave.
Meanwhile, the military situation in the
island had undergone noticeable change.

CHEERED ny EVERY CROWD.
A Thousand Welcomes Extended
Him at Jasper.

Waycross, Ga, April 11.-Every station
along the route Of Consul General Lees
special train lavished appreciative trib-
utes upon him. The country for miles in
the interior furnished ardent admirers
who came In carts. wagons and on horse
back. Ladies' filed the car with hand
some bouquets, accompanied by mlssives
expressive Of their admiration.
Where Is Lee?' was the criy from Tam
pa to this place, and until he made his
appearance the crowds could hardly con-
troll their impatience.
Whenever the General stepped TO the
rear platform outbursts of applause greet
ed him. Before reaching Jasper, Fla.
three kilograms We're received on the train
urging him to make his appearance so that
the people could see him. Arriving there
the local company of state troops and a
score of Confederate veterans with wild
crowd met him. "A thousand welcomes to
you, Gen. Lee, as brave man, a thousand
welcomes to our old Confed-
crate comrade, ten thousand welcomes
10 you, sir, for your admirable Official
course as our consul at Havana" said one
OF the grayheaded men.
II thank you, sir" said Gen. Lee, "for
your kind expressions. thank the Amer
lean people for the commendation they
have shown my administration as your
consul general at Havana / have never
really known until to-day how united the
people are in sanctioning my course
In the afternoon he endeavored to get
some sleep, but Il was impossible. Crowds
would besiege the train and even attempt
to force the doors Of the private car in
their frantic efforts to see the popular
general.
One aged veteran said: II am So, but all
1 want you to do is TO sound the buglo
and / win be with you, saddle and boots.
Don't put il of too long, general. Let us
go to haul down the Spanish flag"
This sentiment was general all along
the line.

Gen. Lee desires the Morning News COR
respondent to state most emphatically that
he has no information regarding the Maine
disaster further than the report of the
board Of inquiry. The report that he was
the bearer of an important message to
Congress, concerning the catastrophe, is
erroneous.
Miss Barton says she prefers being be-
hind American guns rather than in front
of them, ana for that reason, she return
ed to this country, but would proceed
where needed as soon as the contemplated
hostilltes begin
