WHY CIIRANS WITHDREW


When General Brooke and his mount
ed staff, with the escort troops from the
Seventh cavalry, reached the palace,
the governor general was informed that
his carriage was to go Immediately af-
ter the casket. He suggested that the
chief mourners should be General Gar
cia's two sons. Consequently they and
two friends occupied a carriage sepa-
rated from the coffin by the priests on
foot. After the sons came Governor
General Brooke, with Generals Chaffee
and Humphrey and Colonel Richards of
the governor generals staff in two car
riages.
The governor generals mounted staff,
consisting OF twelve horsesnen, was
closing in behind General Brooke S
party, when the point was raised by the
Cuban generals. and members OF the
Cuban military assembly that they
ought TO be- next to Governor General
Brooke, and that his mounted staff, as
escorting troops, should come after
them. General Brooke's position was
that general and his staff could not
be separated, and General Chaffee di-
rected the mounted staff to stay with
General Brooke. and the Cuban generals
with their stats to follow.
The Cuban generals aver that an
American officer ordered them out of
dered out of line or not, they were in
formed that they must not march be-
tween the governor general and his
staff. The Cuban commanders in car
riageS and on horseback then withdrew.
The crowd nearby cried, Viva Cuba
Libre, " Viva Aguinaldo, Viva Fill
pino," and Down with the Yankees"
The artillery caisson with the casket
then started, and some Cuban officers
on foot attempted TO get in line between
General Brooke and his staff, but were
crowded out by the horSemen, who
closed upon the carriages. Ten blocks
away in Central park a party of Cuban
soldiers on fooG formed on either side
of the street, and when the casket
reached the point at which they We're
standing they fell in and marched on
either side of the caisson. No one inter-
fered with them, but after marching a
mile they dropped out so as not to be
present at the cemetery.

scribed what is believed to have been
a simple movement towards strength

about four miles out of town.
The American troops had been ad-
xancing in a northeasterly direction.
The brigade of Brigadier General H. G.

There are moments when we seem to
be hearing rather less of Conan Doyle
than we have come (shall l say, in our
debauchery? to feel that we ought to
hear of a popular author. The fact is
that DR.. Doyle does not drive the muse
anything like as hard as some of the
novelists do. His novels since the ''Ad-
ventures of Sherlock Holmes" made the
public practically his own. while they
have not been exactly few, still have
not numbered quite up to the years;
and this for a man whose one vocation
is novel writing is nearly abstinence.
The habit of a number of novelists of
pledging themselves to work some years
ahead of the present time, and then
driving away for all that is in them and
putting out ANY old thing in order TO
keep their contracts, is one that DR..
Doyle has scrupulously avoided. He
seldom makes d fast promise to write
even so much as a short story while
he still has another piece of work in
hand. He says that he cannot work
with any ease or satisfaction to him
self otherwise; a large promise out he
thinks would paralyze his hand.
