RUM AND cocoANuT MILK.
A Combination Which Events Mt Santiago

A Combination Which Events at Santiago
May Render Popular soon.
From the fact that 1T has not been
mentioned in dispatches from the front.
I should judge that our troops on the
introduced to Santiago rum said a
a who has frequently visited Cuba.
TT is the cheapest and best drink that
i know of In the tropics. and l shall be
very much surprised If it does not be-
come popular in New York after the
war. Santiago rum costs about a third
as much as whisky and is exceedingly
smooth. The best drink that l know
of for a warm climate is Santiago rum
and fresh cocoanut milk. i never have
been able to get fresh c%ocoanut milk
here, and l suppose that New Workers
who do not go to a cocoanut country
can never know the delights of this
mixture. The milk when fresh is al
most as colorless as water, and when a
little rum is added to it the combina-
ton beats a gin rickey, even though 1t
may not be cooled by ice.
You will find that all the small pass
enger steamers which sail down through
the West Indies are well supplied with
Santiago rum, but the demand for 1t is
almost exclusively from men who have
become familiar with its merits by liv-
ing In a tropical climate. Whisky and
brandy, although the latter is a very
popular drink all through the tropics,
are exceedingly dangerous, and one is
very much better off without them. At
one South American port where | used
to call regularly the favorite drink was
vermouth straight. A large proportion
of the population was French, n

Terror Stricken Passengers on

prevent the men from the steerage leav-
ing the burning steamer in the three
lifeboats, which could easily have ac-
commodated the B passengers n
members of the crew.
The Storage passengers were. how
ever, forced out of the boats by Captain
Walker and his men, n when disci-
pline was restored, preparations were
first made for the saving of the women
and children of the vessel. The llfeboats
were lowered. The sea was quite calm
and the ships officers stood by the rope
ladders. Thus a panic was averted and
the safety of the 56 persons or board
the Ardanhu assured. The heat was SO
intense and the smoke was so heavy
that it was for a time unsafe for the
passengers to remain on the upper deck.
They were all ordered forward. and the
women and children were first put into
the lifeboats, each Of which a a full

were supplied with compasses and sig

1t was nearly midnight when Captain
Walker considered that he a the fire
under control, and decided to continue

and children were taken back to the
steamer and the lifeboats were hoisted
to the davits, but were not taken on

kept watch over the lifeboats to prevent

stricken. from deserving the burning

THEY WERE STARVING.
A FrightfuI Condition Revealed IN the
Surrender of Guantanamo.

Copyright 1895 by Associated Press.
Santiago de Cuba. July q, 7:l5 p. M
Lieut.. Col. Angel Resell, who, after
taking confirmation of the instructions
to surrender from General Toral 10
Genera Paroja, military governor of
Guantanamo, returned here this after
noon and said to an associated press
correspondent that the first intimation
that Guantanamo had of the surrender
of Santiago and the terms thereof was
on July %, when Rear Admiral Samp-
son sen. a letter to General Paroja,
asking what number of rations should
be sent to his garrison, as they had
surrendered on the 18th.
General Paroja, being ignorant of the
surrender. refused to credit the mes
sage and accept ~ratioss, answering Ad-
miral Sampson to that effect. Admiral
Sampson then sent a copy Of the terms
of surrender, w~hereupon General Pa
roja decided to inquire of General To-
raj at Santiago whether the news was
true, and Lieutenant Colonel Resell
was appointed to come here. He re-
turned with the confirmation and the
surrender of Guantanamo took place
yesterday.
Colonel Resell says the conditions of
Guantanamo are awful. and the troops
are literally starving. For the last
eight days they have had no food. On
mounting guard the soldiers were
obliged to sit, being too weak to stand,
and II was impossible to make them
build trenches, as they fell from exhaus-
ton. There are 1000 sick in Guanta-
namo, suffering from diseases, increased
by hunger.
The French cruiser Rigault de Genou-
lily was refused permission by Admiral
Sampson to land grain and provisions
for the relief of the French colony at
Guantanamo. All hope was abandoned
and the sufferers were awaiting death
from starvation.

LIABILITY FOR SEA HORROR.
Captain of the Brown Convicted of Fore.
ing Passengers overheard

Captain of the Brown Convicted of Fore
ing Passengers Overheard.
Since the terrible fate hat befell the
passengers on board the French steam
er La B~ourgogne much speculation has
arisen as t the liability of the French
crew under the charges brought against
them in connection with the sinking of
the ship. Tt is well settled that the law
in England and the United States is ad-
verse to the crew.
The leading American case is that of
the people against Holmes, which was
tried in this city by the brilliant law
yer David Paul Brown as prosecuting
attorney. The story is ar interesting
one. The ship William Brown sank off
Nova Scotia I'm March, 1S41. The pass
engers and crew overloaded the boats.
After drifting for several days a storm
came up, making 1t evident that the
overloaded boat which Holmes COM
manded would be swamped n all lost.
Under these circumstances he gave the
order to tighten the boat. Twelve pass
engers were thrown overheard, and two
sisters voluntarily jumped into the sea.
The remainder of the passengers in the
boat and the crew were saved n
brought to Philadelphia. Holmes was
indicted and tried. In his defence the
above circumstances were shown, n
additional evidence admitted that
Holmes was one of the most active in
saving the passengers and getting them
into the boat; that at the risk OF his life
he had personally saved several. New
ertheless Holmes was convicted, and
the United States court sustained the
conviction. on the ground that the con-
tract Of the sailor bound him to use
every means in his power, even to the
sacrifice of his own life, to deliver each
passenger at the port for which he
shipped.
The point Of jurisdiction was raised,
when II was held that the flag convert
ed the ship n her apparel, including
the boats. into national territory. As to
acts done in the waters of the high seas,
II was further held that the contract
controlled as to the sailors. h court
also held that as TO the same acts lone

Does Machinery Displace Labor ?

But what of the future? During 20
years farms were added at the rate of
95, 900 per n On which were placed
an average OF $40. 900 units annually.
New farms absorbed and employed the
equivalent OF the $3.50, 900 immigrants
reaching our shores in the 20 years,
and some 2.750. 900 others born in Amer
lea or immigrating earlier. Instead of
the farm absorbing, as heretofore. one
fourth more people than we import. ii
will hereafter pour a constant stream
OF employment seekers into the urban
districts-unless the surplus labor units
born upon the farm shall be placed in
a standing army.
Tha the anticipated progressive dis
placement of labor by machinery is not
imaginary. Is apparent from
able facts. among which may be named
that the setting of tobacco and other
plants is effected by machines; that the
seed potato is cut by one machine and
planted by another. while the product
is dug by a third; that the "self-feed-
