BUTCHERED BY SPANIARDS.
Details of a Brutal Affair in Cuba.—Even Babies Mas-
sacred.—A Party of Eighteen Refugees Overtaken
by Spanish Troops and all Murdered but Five Who
Hid in a Swamp.
A private letter received in Philadelphia
tells of a most shocking affair that occur-
red a few miles from the little village of
Murgo, in southern Santa Clara. The let-
ter is dated at Colon, September 10, and is
written by a nephew of Don Marco Ellie,
alcalde of the city of Santa Clara. The al-
calde is himself in sympathy with Spanish
rule in Cuba, and some time ago informed
his nephew, Jose Ellie, that he must join
the Guardia Civil and fight against the in-
surgents.
Young Ellie did not dare to disobey his
uncle’s command, but through the inter-
cession of friends was not forced into the
local volunteers, and until recently remain-
ed within the city of Santa Clara. In the
meanwhile he corresponded with General
Rabi, one of General Gomez's lieutenants,
and commander of the insurgent forces in
Santa Clara Province, with the idea of
joining Rabi’s force.
Two months ago General Weyler’s proc-
lamation to the effect that all people resid-
ing in the towns and in sympathy with the
rebel movement should at once be com-
pelled to leave their homes and join the in-
surgents was issued.
The order was carried rigidly into effect
in many places, but Alcalde Ellie deemed
it rather harsh and so did not report to the
Spanish military commandante of his dis-
trict the names of those people within his
jurisdiction that were suspected of being in
secret league with the rebels.
Lately, however, he was reprimanded by
General Weyler, and told that unless he
commenced at once to carry out the order
he himself would be considered an enemy
to the Spanish Government. The rest of
the story is told in the letter, which fol-
lows :
“My uncle came to me on Sunday morn-
ing before mass at the Iglesia Major (ca-
thedral), and informed me that I must
leave the city on the following morning,
with several families who had been ordered
away from their homes. He said I was
saspected of being in favor of the insur-
gents by the Santa Clara military authori-
ties. Further, he said he believed the
authorities were right.
‘Of course, there was but one thing to
do—deny the allegation, but he angrily
told me Idid not speak the truth, and that
I should leave on the following morning.
He did not know how much joy his decis-
ion gave me, since for several months I
had hoped for an opportunity to leave San-
ta Clara, and join the army of liberation.
“But I am sure I did not expect to wit-
ness the fearful affair which I was compell-
ed to on the Friday morning following,and
even now I shudder and my blood runs
cold when I think of those innocents who
were butchered by the guerilla soldiers un-
der Commandante Arola. I cannot drive
from my sight the killing of Senora San-
ches Morales and her baby, nor will I be
ever able to forget the shrieks of pretty
Marina Paso, when she was carried away
to the manigua by the brutal soldiery to be
outraged and murdered !
‘There were eighteen in the party that
left Santa Clara about noon on Monday.
Three of them I had not known before,and,
strangely enough, these three were of .the
five that escaped. Those whom I knew in
the party were Juan Guerro, his wife, Sen-
ora Sanchez and her baby, Alberto Diaz,
Guilermo Diaz, Marina Paso, Senora Paso,
mother of Marina ; Jose L. Morales, Juan
Bettar and five of the negroes from my
uncle’s own estate.
“We were told to leave the vicinity at
once, and that should we return to town,
the penalty would he death. ‘Go,’ said
my uncle, ‘and join the bandits and rob-
bers you sympathize with. Leave Santa
Clara and do not return, else when you do
we will shoot you upon the plaza.’
STARTED FOR CIENFUEGOS.
“The party went in the direction of cien-
fuegos, for most of us had friends there. I
wanted at first to leave the party and join
a party of insurrectos whom I knew were
near the headquarters of the Arimao River,
but Marina Paso and the other women of
the party begged me to stay with them and
to conduct them to Cienfuegos. They said
that should Spanish troops be encountered
my name and the fact the alealde of Santa
Clara was my uncle would alone save them
from outrage and death. :
“I began to think in this way myself un-
til Thursday morning when we met near
the little village of Gamanayagua, a de-
tachment of Government troops. The
commander rode up to us and said : ‘You
are the party of rebels sent from Santa
Clara. Do not go near the village or I will
have the whole lot of you cut down.’ Then
I realized that although we were not near
my uncle the danger was just as great. I
did not attempt to argue with hum and ad-
vised the party to leave the vicinity as
£001 as possible.
*‘If you knew the character of the coun-
try through which we passed, you would
know how we suffered. The women were
weak and hungry, as the only substantial
food we had was obtained at two houses on
the road. We would have stopped at
them but the people were not Cubans, and
feared to offend thr troops by giving us
shelter.
On Friday morning early, what I was
fearful of occurred. Arola and his band of
guerillas rode into the little valley where
we had spent ghe night. Senora Sanchez
must have had warning of the event, for
when she saw the soldiers coming in the
distance she cried out that they intended
to murder us. She took up her baby and
ran, but directly toward the soldiers. Ma-
rina followed in the other direction, while
I followed her.
THE BUTCHERY BEGINS
“In a few minutes more the horrible af-
fair was being enacted. Senora Sanches
was the first to fall, and then two of the
negroes were killed by sword cuts. Sev-
eral of the guerillas rode rapidly in our di-
rection. Marina cried as she ran, but
would not follow me to the thick manigua,
back of the left of a creek. Beyond the
creek was a deep swamp, and I ‘felt that
could we get to it we might escape.
“None of the soldiers followed me, and I
succeeded in getting deep into the woods.
Looking back I saw Marina on her knees,
almost under the hoofs of one of the horses,
The guerilla had his sword uplifted, but he
lowered it again, and dismounting, grasped
the girl roughly by her uplifted wrists. A
few minutes later she was surrounded by
several guerillas, and then she was led
away, shrieking.
“I remained in the swamp all day, and
at night started for Murga. There I learn-
ed the details of the sickening affair, and
learned to my greatest horror that Marina
had been outraged by the soldiers, and af-
terward killed.
“The same fate befell Marina’s mother,
who was also pretty and quite young.
Senora Sanchez and her baby were hacked
almost to pieces, and the five negroes were
literally cut into bits.
‘I have not time to tell you more, but I
determined to write, that you might have
some idea of the condition of things in the
interior of this beautiful but bleeding
island. I will leave this night for Palmil-
loz, where I am to join a party of our sol-
diers. I have learned while here that the
same atrocities have been perpetrated in
this neighborhood. ’’
A Great Political Criminal,
‘‘Calico” Foster, who was Harrison’s
secretary of the treasury, made a speech at
St Louis the other evening in which he
made a fussy and gushing euology of the
Cleveland administration. It was not so
long ago that he was fierce in denunciation
of it. As Harrison’s chief finance minis-
ter he was the prime author of most of the
troubles that afflicted the Cleveland ad-
ministration and separated it from the
Democracy of the Union. He squandered
the immense surplus left in the treasury
by Cleveland on March 4, 1889, and on
March 3 1892, handed over to Cleveland a
bankrupt treasury.
But this was not the tithe of the harm
done by Foster as the head of the treasury.
He is the author of the second great crime,
following that of the demonetization of
silver in 1873. He is responsible for the
increase of the bonded debt to the amount
of $262,000,000. He made the first step
in this direction by his order that the sil-
ver treasury notes should be paid in gold.
That started the raids of the gold specula-
tors, British and American, on the treas-
ury. ‘‘Calico’” Foster opened the doors.
He was the first secretary of the treasury
who repudiated the government bonds in
the interest of the creditor. He struck
out the word ‘‘coin’ from the demand
notes and bonds and inserted ‘‘gold”’. And
yet he denounced Democrats in his St.
Louis speech as repudiators and revolu-
tionists*
On October 13, 1891, one Phineas Pierce,
of Boston, the representative of the gold
sharks, presented to the United States as-
sistant treasurer in that city a $1,000 treas-
ury note, specificially redeemable in silver,
and demanded its redemption in gold. Pay-
ment in gold was refused, the govern-
ment officers asserting the government op-
tion and tendering silver. An appeal was
taken to the secretary of the treasury at
Washington, Charles Foster, of Ohio. He
at once sent this telegram, which involved
the commission of as great a crime as was
possible to any officer of the government.
He wal the first practical repudiator in
this whole business. The damnable tele-
gram read as follows ;
‘Treasury Department, Oct. 14, 1891.
“To Phineas Pierce, No. 32 Sumner
‘‘street, Boston :
‘‘Assistant Treasurer Kennard has been
“instructed to redeem treasury notes in
“gold.
“CHARLES FOSTER, Secretary.”
That was the opening of the ball. Raids
on the treasury at once commenced. It
marked the great crime of the surrender of
the government’s option. Before that the
gold raiders had been held in check. John
Sherman, as secretary, said he would ex-
ercise the option of the silver payments if it
became necessary, and so did Daniel Man-
ning, Cleveland’s first great secretary. In
four fiscal years, under this ruling, the
treasury paid out in endless chain $371,
000,000 gold to the British and American
gold sharks, and to procure it was forced
toissue an increase to the bonded debt of
the United States to the extent of $262,
000,000, which its maturity will envolve
an expenditure of over $300,000,000 in
principal and interest. And mark this
fact : In the preceding 13 years the govern-
ment, reserving its option of coin payments,
paid out only $34,000,000 in the redemp-
tion of demand notes. Thirty-four mil-
lions in 13 years with the option in force,
I against $371,000,000 in four years with the
option abandoned.
F'oster’s policy was adopted and contin-
ued by the Cleveland administration—its
first great and fatal blunder—and there
stands the debt, principal and interest, of
$500,000,000 as a monument of the trans.
cedant folly. There is not a stick of tim-
ber anywhere to show for this debt. Every
cent of it must be paid by taxes on the
food, clothing and shelter of the American
people. Knocking out the income tax re-
lieved the immense accumulations of mil-
lionaires of the payment of a penny, The
history of the civilized world does not af-
ford a parallel for this great misuse of pow-
erin the interest of wealth. Republican
papers charged, and we guess it was true,
that Morgan, the head of the syndicates
raiding the treasury, cleared for himself
$10,000,000 out of the bond issues. He is
now at the head of the financial end of the
McKinley campaign, denouncing silverites
as anarchists and repudiators.
It is easy to say $500,000,000 the price
of maintaining the gold standard for three
years, but does the reader comprehend what
it means, or what could be done with this
immense sum ? Properly applied—
It would construct the Nicaragua ship
canal, estimated to cost $30,000,000, rev-
olutionizing the commerce of the world.
It would enlarge the Erie canal to a ship
canal, from the lakes to tidewater on the
Hudson, estimated to cost $20,000,000.
It would build a great ship canal from
Pittsburg to Lake Erie, and equip it for
the untaxed transportation of the coal we
send to the lakes and the ores we draw
from the lakes, estimated at $12,000,000.
It would buy up the Monongahela slack-
water navigation and make that river free
for commerce, estimated to cost $3,-
000,000. :
It would improve and make navigable
the Allegheny river from Pittsburg to Oil
City, say $3,000,000.
It would make navigable the Ohio river
from Pittsburg to Cairo by slackwater im-
provement, as proposed by Senator Quay
estimated at $50,000,000.
It would build an air line freight rail-
road from Pittsburg to tidewater, under
government control, estimated at $15,000, - |
000
All this it would do and much more.
And yet to-day the people have not a stick
of timber to show for the vast debt. It i
merely represents an effort to maintain the |
gold standard for three years. Itis the
most costly bit of repudiation the history
of the world affords.
McKinley’s election means the continu-
ance of this disastrous and dishonest gold
bug policy.
Bryan’s election means the restoration of
the option of the contract to the govern- |
ment and people.—Pittsburg Post. {

Mr. Bryans Plea For Railroad Men.
An Earnest Appeal For the Protection of Railroad Employees, Willing to Stay
Night and Day Until a Bill to Protect Their Lives and Limbs Was
Enacted by Congress, Shows His Heartfelt Sympaihy
For Workingmen.
If ever the workingmen of the United States had a candidate for President who was
in active and earnest sympathy with them it is WILLIAM J. BRYAN.
If ever there
was a man a candidate for that high position, whose whole life and soul was wrapped
up ina desire to assist and protect those whose conditions in life need assistance and
protection, it is WILLIAM J. BRYAN. This he has proven time and again in his offi-
cial and private acts.
To one of these efforts we want to call the attention of workers
on railroads, who are asked by the corporations that employ them, to vote against him,
and will leave it to their manhood, to their sense of honor, and to their gratitude to
determine if one who stands by their interest and welfare as he has done, is not deserv-
ing of their support. On February 21, 1893, there was a debate in Congress on a bill
to compel railroads engaged in interstate commerce to use on their cars couplers which
would protect the lives and limbs of their employes ; There was opposition to the bill
but WILLIIAM J. BRYAN urged its passage.
“I for one am willing to stay here till this session ends,
I believe it is dictated by humanity,
because I think this bill
and Iam not willing, if I can
prevent it, that these men shall be killed and maimed just because some of the railroads
insist that they cannot afford to put these couplers on their cars. The only objection
that I have heard made, the only real one in
that letter of Mr. Haines found on our
desks this morning, is that it would cost $75 a car, or $75,000,000. Some 22,000 per-
sons have been injured. Those of us who have associated with these men know that
there is scarcely one of them employed for any length of time in railroading who does
not have a hand off, or fingers off, or foot off, or is not maimed in

I insist, Mr. Speaker, that we who are in favor of this bill

can give—I insist that we shall be as zealous in behalf of this bill as are those on the

staying here night and day, the country will notice it and public opinion will be
brought to bear upon it, and we are willing

Output of Gold and Silver.
Production of the Metals in the United States Last
Year.
The Director of the Mint, Mr. R. E.
Preston, estimates the production of gold
by the mines of the United States approxi-
mately, during the calendar year 1894 to
have been 1,910,800 fine ounces, of the
coining value of $39,500,000, an increase
over 1896 of $3,500,000, which is the larg-
est amount produced in any year since
1878.
The production of silver from the mines
of the United States is estimated to have
approximated in 1894,49,500,000 ounces,of
the coining value of $64,000,000, showing
a decrease as compared with 1893 of 10,-
500,000 ounces.
In the production of gold California led
with an output of $13,570,000 ; Colorado
coming second with $9,491,000 ; Montana
third with $3,651,000 ; and South Dakota
$3,299,000.
Colorado heads the list in silver by an
output of 23,281,400 fine ounces, of the
coining value $30,101,200 ; Montana sec-
ond with a production of 12,820,000 fine
ounces, followed by Utah, “with a produc-
tion of 5,892,000 fine ounces. At the aver-
age price of silver for the calendar year,
1894 ($0.635), the commercial value of the
silver product of the mines of the United
States is $31,432,500.
The estimates of the agents employed by
the Mint Bureau to gather the statistics of
the product of gald and silver for the sev-
eral States and Territories make the gold
product aggregate $43,630,000 and the sil-
ver product 51,000,000 ounces. The esti-
mate of the Director of the Mint is based
upon the deposits of domestic bullion at the
Mints and assay offices and upon the re-
turns from private refiners, who have cour-
teously reported the amount of their out-
put of both gold and silver and the source
from whence the ores from which the same
was extracted were received, and not from
the reports of mine owners. -
In regard to the product of the world’s
gold and silver for 1894, the returns are in-
complete, but so far as received show an in-
of about $21,000,000, the largest increase
States with an increase of $3,950,000. Aus-
tralia leads the lists of gold producing coun-
tries for 1894, with a production of 41,000,
000, the United States taking second place.
The production of silver in the world, it
is estimated, will be from 145,000,000, to
150,000,000 ounces for the calendar .year
1894. The heaviest falling off in the pro-
duction is in the United States, followed
by Australia, Mexico showing a gain of 2,-
700,000 ounces.
Mexico also gains in her production of
gold of $1,500,000.

DEPARTMENT OFPUBLIC INSTRUCTION,
HARRISBURG, Sept. 15, 1896.
To the Directors, Superintendents, Teachers
and Pupils of the Schools of Pennsylvania :
It is characteristic of civilized men to
prepare for the remote future. This is one
of the most striking differences between
him and the barbarian, who lives only for
the present. In the struggle for suprema-
cy civilization has won because it antici-
pated the future and met its events as they
appeared.
It is a function of our public schools to
train pupils tolead in such movements as
will best perpetuate the State. For this
reason, each succeeding autumn, you, the
pupils, are enjoined by public proclama-
tion to turn aside for one day and consider
the relations which the woodlands of the
Commonwealth will have to your prosperi-
ty when you are the citizens and rulers ‘of
the State. For this you are asked to en-
courage, by your example, the planting of
trees, which will grow into a source of
wealth and power. Thus you may trans-
mit influences for good, not only to the |
next generation, but to those which suc-
ceed it.
A waste acre which produces nothing is
a reproach to any country, as much as a
wasted life is a disgrace to him who has led
it. Therefore, lend the weight of your
character and example to the public duty
of covering the barren hills and mountain
tops of the State with trees, whose leaves
will distil moisture into the air, whose
trunks and bark will furnish material for
our industries and whose roots will aid in
producing fresh soil to replace that which
is washed from our fields, down the streams
and rivers into the ocean,
If you, in your day and generation, fail
to do this the order of nature will be vio-
lated and a penalty will inevitahly be in-
vited upon the land for whose prosperity
you will be responsible.
The abundance, in future, of the matured
fruit of orchards, forests and fields will be
in proportion to your individual activity in
tree planting and in forest restoration.

The Word ¢“Dollar.”
According to one authority, the word
‘dollar’ is a corruption of the German
word ‘‘thaler,’’ the form in Dutch being
‘‘daalder.” All these different forms be-
