THE CUBANS HATE US CORDIALLY.
Gen. Fftxhugh Lee Discusses COndf-
tiOua ON the Island.

ti0ns ON the Island.
The New York Herald of today says: Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee. military commander Of the
department of the east in Cuba, who ar
rived in New York from Havana on the
United States transport Rawlins yesterday
afternoon, refused to talk politics, saying:
II was requested to go to Havana by Mr..
Cleveland, a democratic President. and
was requested to remain there by Mr.. Nc
Kin!ey, a republican President Since then
l have been an army officer-and army Of
ficers do not enter into politics or talk
about them. though they may keep up
devil Of thinking
Gen. Lee was willing to talk about Cuba,
however and the description he gives Of the
condition there Is not reassuring. He says
the feeling against Americans is more bit
ter than he ever saw 1t before, and that 1t
| Is getting worse. When asked regarding
the constitutional convention to be held
there he said:
st Is well known that the United States
government promised in the declaration OF
war with Spain that its only purpose was
to establish the pacification of the island.
and that when assured Of control the gov
eminent would be left to the Cuban people.
TN pursuance Of that pledge the munich
palities have held elections, selecting may
ors and councils. In Cuba municipality
Is not town only, but includes the ad1oin-
ing territory.
This having been accomplished, the next
move was to call a constitutional eonven-
ton to organize Cuban government and
provide for the election of president and
legislature. This convention will consist of
only thirty-one members, and will meet
early in November
Il understand that whatever constitution
Is agreed on will be submitted to the Con-
gress Of the United States. which in turn
will see that the constitution will provide for
! the security Of the life and property not
only OF Americans, but also Of the citizens
Of other countries.
Ii for any reason the United States had
Withdrawn its troops and released its guar
anfee OF the pacification Of the island, and
any English French German or other for
e1gn citizens had been denied their rights.
there Is no question that the country to
which they belonged would, In the absence
OF the United States. have taken charge
themselves and no one could foretell the
result.
There Is considerable dissatisfaction over
the proposed constitutional convention.
some OF the Cubans object to the clause
which compels them To submit their constf-
tuition to the Congress of the United states.
Ihey say they should have the right to
make their own government without the
consent OF any foreign nation.
u do not think there Is any widespread
dissatisfaction. but the feeling that exists
among a certain class Of the Cubans and
the americans Is more bitter than I have
ever known before. The disaffected class
Is composed mostly Of former Cuban SOL
oieEs VINO look on the Americans as in
trucers. and who want to have absolute
control or their own affairs"

Duryea for a broken neck, was performed
yesterday at the Harlem Hospital on Mrs.
Annie Smith Of No. 2439 Sd avenue. The
operation occupied nearly two hours time.
and Is expected to be entirely successful.
On Monday morning last Mrs. Smith, who
Is a large woman, weighing 24O pounds,
was hanging out clothing from the fire
escape of her apartments on the third floor.
She lost her balance and fell to the ground.
She was picked up unconscious and taken
to the Harlem Hospital, where her life was
despaired of for some time. She lived,
however, and then the physicians began 10
nave hope OF saving her life through an
operation. The patient was placed on
water bed, and everything done to ascer-
tain the exact extent of the injury. Yes
terday morning her strength seemed to
have returned sufficient to make the effort
just1fiable. and it was agreed that she
should be operated upon in the afternoon.
The operation was performed by DIR. A.
Palmer Duciey and Dr. Plimpton of the
Post Graduate Hospital. The patient was
subjected to chloroform changing into ether
Then an incision six inches In length
was made directly over the last dorsal
vertebrae. This was extended down to the
pelvic arch; the muscles and ligaments
were then cut and laid to either side until
FOR a length of six inches the spinal cord
was bare and exposed to view. Then the
true nature Of the woman's injury was
covered that the twelfth dorsal and twelfth
lumbar vertebrae were not only fractured,
but badly shattered and that fragments of
the splintered vertebrae had for DAYS been
pressing against the spinal cord
These fragments and splinters of bone
were removed and the pressure against the
spinal cord thus removed. The rough and
Jagged portions Of the vertebrate were then
cnlseied or smooth, the muscles and liga-
ments replaced and the incision closed with
stltches: The operation was completed at
lao O'Clock, and fifteen minutes later the
patient came out from under the influence
of the anaesthetic
she was replaced on the water bed, with
an extension apparatus. to keep the weight
or the body on the left side and returned
to her room. Almost Immediately after
losing the effect of the anaesthetic the pa
tlent showed decided Improvement as to
her mental condition. The physicians state
they have every reason to believe that the
operation Will prove successful one and
that eventually there will be an improve
ment as regards the paralyzed condition Of
the woman's body
