poets Of food and medical attention will
win over more men from the government
ranks than any other plan that could be
adopted.
According to latest reports the medical
corps of the war vessels now at Blue
fields have installed hospitals, where
scores are being cared for. The process
sOns of sick and wounded men through
the town is said to be pitiful and, al
though Estrada is doing everything in
his power to relieve the suffering, his
resources are meager. To relieve the sit
uatiOn, Secretary Knox tonight consulted
with the American Red Cross and i'm
mediately afterward dispatched the fol-
lowing message to Thomas II. MOffatt,
United States consul at Bluefields:
Message of Secretary Knox,
1.-THE American Red Cross will tele-
graph you tomorrow, the twenty-fOuTth,
five thousand dollars, and will send an
other five thousand if needed Navy de
partment has instructed Captain Shipley
to land whatever surplus supplies can be
furnished from our ships now at Blue
fields and orders will be given the
Prairie, now at Colon, to transport imme-
diately to Bluefields from the stores in
tended for the marines or from the Pan
ANA canal cOmmissary department, such
supplies as you may ask for within the
limit Of five thousand dollars to be Cabled
you tomorrow. You will cooperate with
Shipley in the distribution of supplies,
payment for all of which. both those
landed from ships at Bluefields and
those sent from Colon, will be recouped
from Red Cross funds"
The dispatch Of this telegram followed
close on receipt of a report from Con-
sui MOffatt depicting the state of affairs
in Bluefields His story Of the suffering
Of the defeated Zelayau soldiers was
brief. but graphic. incidentally. he re
ported that more than 800 were killed on
both sides in the recent battle of Rama.
The dispatch follows:
Two thousand starved, emaCiated pris-
oners have been brought here from Ze-
laya's surrendered army.
Sickening Sight.
THE sight of the sick and weary, tot
tering through the streets, is terrible.
Half are mere boys. The emergency hos
pital established by the Des MOines and
Tacoma contains ninety wounded, the
dered army had shoes or blankets. Scores
were almost naked, ali were in a pitia-
bic condition. Estrada IS furnishing
them with blankets, clothing, shoes anG
food as best he can. Flour, beans, rice,
sugar, coffee and condensed milk are
needed instantly to feed the starving Ze-
layan soldiers. Disease and death threat
ems unless they are given promptly the
best of food and care.
THE great and sudden demand for
clothing and food for the suffering is a
problem for the provisional government
whose resources are exhausted Their
own men, numbering 3.o0G are well fed
and clothed, but they cannot find means
whereby to care for their increased bur
den.

I'VE must continue our unshakaDle at

love Of independence, and thus hold
sacred our patrimony while advancing to

OF labor and science.
In the Congo the nation wishes pol
lev of humanity and progress and the
enforced mission of colonization cannot be
other than a mission of high civilization.
Belgium always has kept her promises,
and when she engages to apply in the
Congo a policy worthy of her, none has
a right to doubt her word" King Albert
continued:
''The throne has its prerogauves and
its responsibilities. The sovereign must
be the servant of the law and the sup
porter of social peace. / love my coun-
try and the queen shares with me an
Unalterable feeling of fidelity TO Belgium,
which we are intoxicating in our
children. Your welcome touches me deep
Is and 1 shall enGeavOr to deserve the
confidence shown in me And now before

duty scrUpulOusly and 10 cOnsecrate all
my strength and my whole life to the

Is beefing because we did not give
him the contract. Moreover. Mr..
