CHAPTER XVI.
The Troeha.

ITO tT0SU8s
OF all the military measures en-
ployed by the Spaniards In their wars
against Cuban independence, perhaps
the most unique was the trocha-
trench or traverse. Martinez Campos
during the Ten Years wal built the
first trocha just west Of the Cubitas
mountains where the waist OF the
island is narrowest. Not until Wey-
ler's time were the two methods Of
r~acif1cation, the trocha end the concen-
tration camp, developed to their fullest
extent Although his trochas hindered
the free movement Of Cuban troops
and his prison camps decimated the
peaceful population Of several prov
inces, the Spanish cause gained little.
Both trenches and prison camps be-
came Spanish graveyards.
At the time Johnnie O'Reilly set out
for Matanzas the warA war without
battle, without victory, without defeat
had settled into a grim contest Of en-
durance. In the east, where the insur-
rectos were practically supreme, there
was food Of a sort, but beyond the Ju-
caro-Moron trocha-the old one Of
Campos' building-the country was
sick. Immediately west OF 1t, In that
district which the Cubans called Las
Villas, the land lay dying, while the
entire provinces OF Matanzas, Habana
and Pinar del Rio were practically
dead These three were skeletons.
picked bare Of flesh by Weyler's beak.
The Jucaro-Moron trocha had been
Greatly strengthened since Campos'
day. It followed the line Of the trans
insular railway. Dotted at every quar-
ter Of a mile along the grade were lit
tie forts connected by telephone and
telegraph lines. Between these forti-
mas were sentry stations OF logs or rail-
road ties. Eyes were keen, rifles were
ready, challenges were sharp, and coun-
tersigns were quickly given on the Ju-
caro-Moron trocha.
In OReilly's party there were three
men besides himsef-the e%ver-faithful
Jacket, q wrinkled old Camagueyan
who knew the bride trails Of his prov
nee as a FOX knows the tracks to Its
lair, and a silent guajiro from farther
west, detailed to accompany the expe-
dstlOn because of his wide acquaintance
with the devastated districts. Both
guides, having crossed the trocha more
than once, affected to scorn its ter
rors, and their easy confidence reas-
sured OReilly In spite Of Esteban's
parting admonition.
The American had not dreamed Of
taking Jacket along. but when he came
to announce his departure the boy had
fatty refused to be left behind.
Fifty miles Of hard riding brought
the party to the trocha /; they neared It
on the second morning after leaving
Cubitas, and sought q secluded camp
Ing spot. Later In the day, Hllario, the

~connoiter. He returned at twilight,
but volunteered no report of what he
had discovered. After N insistent
cross-examination O'Reilly wrung from
him the reluctant admission that ev-
