Widows Island Hospital.

The talk of bringing to Widows Island
the soldiers who contract the yellow fever
in Cuba, has been the first news to MANY
Maine people that such an island existed
OFT the coast. The island is situated in
Penobscot bay and lies between North
Haven and Vinalhaven at the eastern end
OF Fox Island Thoroughfare It is an
ideal location for the treatment of the sick
soldiers. The island is about half a mile
long by fourth wide, and there is fine
brick hospital upon it which was erected
some years ago when the epidemic of yell
low fever was feared in the navy. As yell
low fever germs do not thrive in a cool
climate it is safe to say that they will
quickly be exterminated by the pure and
refreshing ali of Penobscot bay. No one
knows just when the first consignment of
invalids will arrive, but it will probably
be in the course of week or two, if, in
deed, they come at all.

 Other letters are in existence; letters written by Clarence Warehouse and others, all of which throw light upon the stupendous conspiracy to gain pos session or these mines at all cost. Mex ican officials were bribed, according to some of them, and the Mexican Gov ernment was cheated as Columbus Warehouse was robbed. But enough has been given to show D. M. Burns connection with the scheme. Burns was the central figure in the conspir- acy. He it was who planned the whole affair, and he 1t is who profited most by the conspiracy.
 The wealth that should by right be- long to the estate of the late Columbus Warehouse saved Burns from serving the term in Mexican prison to which he was justly sentenced and richly de- served, and it is more of this ill-gotten wealth that is being used now to place him in the United States Senate.
 It cannot be that California is pre- pared to thus honor this unpunished convict.
