From Sagua, Santa Clara province, a Spanish correspondent writes to the Diario de la Marina: “Tne spectacle of misery and starvation among the reconcentrados is beyond description. They are herded in the large Betharte sugar warehouse, where they are dy- ing by scores. A family numbering 25 persons has been reduced to two by death. There is only one coffin in which to place the bodies and send them to the cemetery. It goes and comes on its ghastly work. Smallpox is increasing, as well as famine, and the most horrible facts about the situ- | ation are not allowed to be reported.” ———— Lives per- Boycoyrrinag was declared to be a se- rious crime by the United States cir- cuit court, a few days ago. To plan and advise doing injury to a person's business makes those engaged in boy- cotting subject to heavy fine and im- prisonment. The laws of the land throw the strong arm of protection around every man in his honest pur suits, and strikes severely at those who conspire to interfere out of malice, en- vy or whatever the motive of bad men may be, Cases of boycotting have been in the various courts a number of times and in every instance this unmanly and cowardly plan to seek revenge has ter- minated to the great sorrow of all ac cased and found guilty, To seek to do Fourteen States and the District | Columbia have together more { five million in | banks, whose deposits aggregate {ly two billions of dollars.

But it makes no difference whether it was used for corrupt or bull- dozing purposes or for perfectly legit. imate and honest campaign work, it was equally a violation of the law and the trust reposed in corporation offi. cials, We know of cases where the money of Democrats—-at least their share of un- divided profits—was contributed by by corporation directors to help Mark Hanna elect McKinley.
