Among these was row OF houses on list

Duff Green Row. Many years ago. during
the war, it was known as Capital Prison

Another house OF historic interest, which

The stories being told by soldiers return
ing from Cuba are sckening. They are
greatly exaggerated, of course. The Globe
does not believe, for example, that sick sol
diers were hurried through Washington on
their way West, while they were screaming
for water This statement has been made,
and others great deal worse. We do not
believe the government officials deliberately
neglected the soldiers, and failed through
l2ZlneSS to supply them With food. The mis-
take was going to war in the first place. 1t
was a mistake to send American troops
to Cuba at the beginning of summer. me
government officials did not want to do this
but yellow newspapers clamored for it
and yellow people sent requests of that ma
ture to Washington. Now the same yellow
newspapers are exaSgerating the suffering
and abusing the officials for conditions that
could not be helped. Send an American army
to Cuba at the beginning of summer at the
beginning of the rainy season, and no power
on earth can prevent suffering. In our usual
American way, we rushed into war, and We

untruthful charges against the government
are the most widely circulated The same
newspapers were m )St prosperous before

ish 1t has been a Wretched piece of busi-
ness from beginning to end, and we will not
hear the last of the scandal for years, but
as matter of common sense and COM
mon justice refuse to believe that the
secretary of war deliberately neglected the
troops; we refuse to believe the wild and
exaggerated stories of returning soldiers.
But it probably is true that the officers,
who are drawing better salaries than they
could earn at home, are holding back the
mastering out of troops. The troops should
be mustered out as speedily as possible, and
the Wretcned business ended
