the new world inf rmed The Spanish
governor that his auth ority had ended,
and that the soil Of this country was
not ripe for the Holy lnquisiti ton 4 S
The governor, Don Antonia de Ulloa,
did not resist, though his force was
larger than the band of conspirato tors
could rally, and. in addition, he had
two ships of war. After he had rather
hurriedly retreated to one OF his yes
sells his departure was q trifle hurried
by one Of the conspirat tors cutting 9
cable, when the ,essel drifted from its
moorings amid the hootings of the con-
spirators and jeers at the broad ban
ner of Spain"
The departing governor with much.
gravity saluted the insurgents and
threatened to return and avenge this
''insult to Spanish honor"
After Investigating and learning
that louisiana was not gold mine, it
is doubtful whether Spain would not
have returned the expensive gift to
France. But her honor had been
insulted, and with Spain that OUT
weighs everything-except gold. The
pride of the French Creoles must be
humbled. Accordingly fleet Of trans
ports with about 5000 men was dis
patched to Louisiana, under the COM
mand of monster whose name is too
Infamous to live in history-even in
the black history of Spain. The citi-
zens were panic-stricken by the ar
rival of this fee: one morning in July,
1869. Its mission was ominous-to
avenge Spanish honor!" The
treacherous commander having dis
patched word that he would be lenient,
almost forgiving, no opposition was
made to his authority-the leading
conspira tors having been led to be-
lieve that their only punishment would
be exile. On the statements of Span
ish detectives, 20 of the leaders were
arrested, and this at !. banquet to
which they had been invited by the
Spanish commander as his guests.
This infamy was the Spanish refine
ment of cruelty. Their property had
already been confscated; their doom
virtually decided upon. The trial was
amockery. Lhfraniere, the "Protector
of the Republic" Capt. Morgius and
five others were condemned to be
hanged. Ito be taken to the place of

"Now, before the changes that will

That is good place for the sick
and wounded soldiers, by the salt sea,
where their brows will be famed by
the breezes from the ocean; where
fish and oysters and clans are so plen-
tiful, and where all game is accessible
in season. It is to be the grandest
military hospital in the world.

ceased was for many years TIE pro-
prietor OF a popular hotel IN w ash
sington which was . sort of club for
prominent men. He was avery popu-
lar man himself, and, although with
out money, he induced mil lionaires to
subscribe large sums for the purpose
of building magnificent hotel on. Old
Point Comfort near the Hygeia hotel.
He lived long enough to complete his
plans and opened his hotel with a
grand banquet in the presence Of the
secretary Of the navy, postmaster-gen-
eral, Admiral Bnnce, Gen. Miles, Com
modore Schley and many famous SEN
ators and representative and govern
ors of sovereign states.
The hotel with its furnishings cost
81, 10000 It is without exception the
most perfect hotel on the Atlantic
coast, and that means the most per-
feet and delightful pleasure resort
in the entire world.
The ground upon which the Hygeia
hotel and Chamberlin's hotel stand
belongs to the United States govern
ment. The leases were given with the
understanding that no rent should be
paid for the use of the ground, but
that the hotels could be taken, posses
sion of by the government at any time
without notice, to be used by the gov
eminent, or destroyed; and the own
crs would have no recourse for losses
sustained. 1a.1
. Gen. Miles has taken possession of
both of these hotels, and has set them
apart for military purposes. They
will be used as hospitals for the care
of the sick and wounded soldiers of
the army of the United States: At no
time, in no war, under no circum-
stances have the sick and wounded SOL
diers of any army been provided for
in such a magnificent manner.
,Awell-known writer who was at one
time prominent Washington CORE

Comfort and beautifully described the
beautiful place by saying: ''Some faint
idea of the character of Chamberlin's
hotel, which the manned soldiers will

be termed the modern renaissance. Its

but the other sides of the building are

execution mounted upon jackasses,
and when hanged their bodies to re-
main suspended until further orders. !"
The negro hangman, rather than car
ry' out such cruelty, cut off his right
hand. This humane lesson from an
African whom the Spaniards had sold
into slavery moved some of the French
ladies to plead for clemency-that the
conspirators be shot instead of being
hanged. Among these was Nine. Pra-
del, who now no longer worshiped the
setting sun, but was smiling upon the
demon son of Mars.
Accordingly the doomed conspira-
tors-the organizers of the first re-
public on this continent-were taken
to the place of execution, bound hand
and foot like felons and Inundated by
being placed in cart drawn by jack
asses.
The place of execution was in the
center of what is now jackson square,
and at the spot where stands the eques-
TRAN statue of Gen. Jackson, who,
three-quarters of a century later,
wrested Florida from Spanish rule.
Arriving at the spot the men were
made to kneel. The official "crier''
walked round the plaza reading the
order condemning the men to death.
He was preceded by drummer and a
ifer. The sentence was then read in
Spanish to the condemned, after which
1t was interpreted to them in French.
After this long ceremony the order of
death was given. They were shot sep
arately-at least minute intervene
ing, us further refinement of cruel
ty. Lafraniere was the last to fall.
Ibis was special mark of revenge for
"Spain's insulted honor" And thus
ended the first republic.
Their families were not permitted
to remove their bodies, which, after
being mutilated by Spanish soldiers,
were flung into trenches by SPANS
"barbarous chivalry."

HOUSE FOR ANNEXATION.
Newlsnds Resolution Passed by a Vote of
2OO to 81.

~OO W
Washington, June 17.-Hawaiian an
nexation went through the house with
flying colors, the Newlands resolution
being passed by a vote OF 209 to Ola
majority of l1S-thus demonstrating the
extefs TO which the influence of the
speaker has been preventing considera-
tion Of a resolution, the passage of
which was demanded by two-thirds of
the members of the house.
Practically all of the Republicans
voted for annexation-there being only
three, Wadsworth of New York and
Johnson and Crumpacker of Indiana,
on the wrong side, although public an
nouncement was made that if Speaker
Reed had been present he would have
voted no. The affirmative vote in the
house was made up of 176 Republicans.
fifteen Independents, and eighteen DEM
ocrats.
The thirty-three votes from the oppo-
sition present annexation as a non-po-
litlcal question and will help the reso-
luton go through the senate It's fate
in that body is uncertain, to say the
least. In spite of all denials it is pret-
ty well understood that some Republic
an leaders practically pledged them
selves to secure either defeat or delay
of annexation as the price of vote on
the revenue bill, and it is known that a
few influential Republicans who are
nominally for annexation are really
lukewarm in its support and will not go
out of their way to secure an early
vote.
The strength of the vote in the house
ators into line, as II seems to demon
strate that there can be no adjournment
until the annexation question is settled
and there can, of course, be no doubt as
to the result In the senate when vote
is once reached.

Army Surgeon Says Spaniards Did Not

Army Surgeon Says Spaniards Did Not
Mutilate Our Dead.
New York, June ia Camp McCalla.
Cuba, cable says: The story Of the mu-
tilation OF the bodies Of two young pri-
Yates of Captain Spicer's company of
marines is now found to be entirely un-
true. The officers and men Of the party
which recovered the bodies were mis-
led by the frightful tearing effects Of
the Mauser bullets when DETECTED by
anything like brushwood or from close
range The men had apparently been
fired on by guerrillas at a distance Of
fifteen feet. One body had eight bullet
wounds, causing dreadful havoc.
Surgeon Edgar states positively that
the wounds were due TO bullets only.
The body Of Sergeant Smith had been
lying within the enemy's lines nearly
two days, and consequently any mutil-
alton by the Spaniards could easily
have been accomplished The body.
however was found Invested only of
the rifle and accoutrements. There
were no barbarities whatever.
