The tortuio known as componte in Culm, and by means of which the Ameiican citizen, Di. Rl cardo Ruiz, was assassinated, Is the most biibaious of all the ciuel punish ments Invented by the Spanlaids. A piisoner Is beaten, sometimes with a cane and sometimes with a laige cyl indiical piece of Iron, until he faints f.'om pain oi loss of blood. His wounds aie then caied foi, and when he is bet ter the awful tieatment Is lepeated. Caie is taken by the savage oxecutlon eis that the victim shall not die at the first componte. The design Is to kill him by degiees, and when the climax of ciuelty is reached, then a powerful and decisive blow on the head puts an end to the poor victim's sulferings. The tortuie began on Tilday, Feb. 12. Ruiz was patiently awaiting assistance fiom the Ameiican cpnsulate. It being then the ninth day of his an est. The only pel sons who had entered his coll weie the Auditor de Guerra and his no tuiy. He declared before them that he was Innocent of any connection with the Insuigents, denied all the cliaiges against him, and, asseitlng his Ameri can citizenship, asked permission to communicate with the Ameiican con sul geneial. He received no answer, and was left alone. Meanwhile his wife sent word to Consul Geneial Lee, and later called hei self at the Ameiican consulate General Lee, as uaual in these cases, notified the state department of the ai lest, and awaited instiuctlons, which did not come. Neither General Lee nor Mis. Ruiz could believe that the doctor was In danger of being assassinated. Without any answer from Washing ton nnd without any more news from Dr. Ruiz, the time passed until Feb. i. Mis. Ruiz lepeatedly, but in vain, tried to communicate with her husband, and to send lilm food from their own house. Admittance to the jail was lefused to her. She was told that her husband was Incommunicado. It Is nlso said that she called on Ma jor Fonsdeviella.who gave hei a veiy iough leceptlon. "Apply to the Ameri can consul geneial, madam," said Fonsdeviella to the poor woman, with the devilish, iionlcal smile which had made so. many men tiemble befoie him. On the night of Feb 12 the doors of the cell In which Di. Ruiz was confined were opened and the coni'ionte began The details of the awful scene cannot be told, as no witness was theie e ci pt Ruiz and his muideieis Wha all the other misoners heard weie th desuetnte ciles of the victim, ills en treaties for meicy, and his despairii.j impiecatlons. A fact is also known, which Is pi oof that the toiture was In flicted by the majoi s ordets, for at th dcoi of the cell, w ille the componte was g-olng on, stood Major Fohsdfvlel la, and seveial times lie addi3"sed the piisrner and the exec, honors. On Feb. 13, about 7 p m the scene was repeated. The unfoitunate Ruiz appears to have made a desperate e' foit to oi'ei throw his enemies and get to the dooi The noise sounded as though ne had made a leap and had at once leceived a toulble blow which felled him, and as he fell he uttered a loud ciy. The door was Immediate' v locked, and the assassins, passing tlnnugh one of the nanow halls, ex messed to each other the fear of hav ing killed the man "against otders." One of them was plainlv seen in the dim Unlit of the coiilrloi. He wore the unifoim of a soldlei belonging to the mllttaiy police called Oiden Pub lico. On the next day, Sunday, Ruiz was left alone in his cell and the torture was not lepeated. He passed the day ciy Ing Socono' socoiro'" (Help! help') foi bouts together, until his strength was exhausted Duilng the night, like a wild beast In Its cage, the doctor was heaid sciatclilng the vvnlls and the door of his pilson. How could he live in such sucli a situation and suffei still two tor tuies more ' On Mondav night the mm del erS In flicted upon the doctor only one or two SHOE HOUSE, 307 Lackawanna Ave. blows. The voice of the unfortuntlte man was not heaid ngnlu that evening, He was thought to be dead by every one in the prison except the Infamous agents of Fonsderlelln, On Tuesday night, the 16th, the strug gles and cries were heaid again and ulso tlie lat tremendous blow w hich put an end to Ruiz's life. The above details nre now known to all Cubans In Gunnnbncoa. Theli np pieclatlon of the t'ffoits of the Sun In half of Cuba has aided the correspond ent In his Investigations. But the Cu bans nie vety doubtful that theie will bo any Interfetentc by the United States government that will bilng pun ishment upon Fonsdeiellla or stop the murder of Ameilcnii citizens In Cuba, Even tho resolute attitude of General Lee, who has conducted himself since he knew of the denth of Ruiz as a man of honor and a Hue repiesentnllve of a powerful nation, has not convinced the Cubans that anything will be done. They sny: "We know that General Lee Is a noble American and n friend of justice. But what can he do? Mr. Cleveland Is on the side of Spain and the Spanlaids." Major Fonsdeilella Is calm and de fiant. Ho says that It has always been his opinion that no consideration should be given to American citizens lu Cuba, and that Spain ought to extil cate herself at once fiom the einbai rasslng position In which she Is placed in tclntlcn to the United States, nc septlng all the lesnonslbilltv nnd de-claiinp- wnr upon the Americans. Tenor utevnlls in Gunnnbaeoa for fear that Fonsdeilella will Inflict ven geance on account of Geneial Lee's attitude. Teais aie expressed for the safety of Dr. Ruiz's widow and chil dren nnd for the lives of all the ptlson eis In the jail who were In a position to give Information to Geriernl Lee and to the American press through com munications their friends have re ceived from them.
