They care little for truth and a great deal for temporary sensation. It is not so with THE CHICAGO RECORD. The success of THE RECORD rests upon its reliability, ptt. It prints the news—all the news—and tells the truth i about it. It is the only American newspaper outside New York city that has its own exclusive dispatch boat service and its I „ own staff correspondents and artists at the front in both - hemispheres. ( It is the best illustrated daily newspaper in the world. Its war news service is unapproachably the best. Says the Urbana (111.) Daily Courier: “We read the war news in the other papers, then we turn to THE CHICAGO RECORD to see how much of it is true.” Sold by newsdealers everywhere and subscriptions received Ma'jgy by all postmasters.

New York, Sept. 29. —Among ■ the passengers who arrived to day on the steamer City of Washington from Havana were Dr. Jose Congosto and Captain Fred Sharpe, of the Merritt- Chapman Wrecking Company, The City of Washington brought forty one passengers and a small 1 cargo composed chiefly of cigars and 4 tobacco. Later Dr. Congosto said; “The evacuation of Cuba by Spain is a matter of time, but when I left Havana everything was progressing well, Ido not care to enter into all the reasons lor the delay, but one of the principal causes is the fact that we have over 6,000 sick who must be taken care of, and can not be left behind. “The problem of the future of the island is a difficult one, and f have studied it without pre. judice, and as a result of this study of years, I believe that it is a social probleYn, and not a political one. Oi course politics will enter into the solution, but the great question is how to bring the most prosperity and the greatest happiness to the people of Cuba. It is probably that there will be a large emi gration to the island, and this emigration may assist in solving the problem. Os course a difficul ty will be met in view of the dangers of fever and the cli mate.” Dr. Congosto was askad as to the condition of the reconcen trados. “There are no reconcentrados now,” he answered, with a smile. “What has become es them?” was the next question. “They’re gone.” “Where?” “God knows,” was the reply. “Do you mean to say they are all dead?” “That probably explains it better than I can. It is a subject which I prefer not to discuss.” When asked as to the estab lishment of a new navy for Spain, Dr. Congosto said: “Spain is still a great country, and she ought to have a great navy—and probably will.” Discussing the fall of Santia go and the surrender of General Toral, Dr. Congosto said: “There were brave soldiers at Santiago,and if their leader lack e I courage he deserves to be punished. Santiago should not have fallen as it did, and if To ral had not entered into negoti ations with the enemy. it is likely that there would have been a different story to tell to day. It is not true that the Span ish army there lacked supplies and ammunition, for they had plenty of both, which they turn ed over to the Americans. If ’Toral had pushed forward, in stead of retreating toward the city, be certainly would have caused a repulse. ’these are things which he will have to ex plain.” Dr. Conge sto hopes that when his duties cn the Palis peace co mmiseic n (xpire, he will le- v.me his (• r.sular sei vice. 0 SHOOK HMDS General KitGtaer and Col onel Marcnand FRENCH MUST WITHDRAW Kitchener to Quit the Egyptian Service- London, Sept. 29 —The Cairo correspondent of the Daily Tele graph says. “It is'stated on good authority that General Kitchener intends to retire from the Egyptian service.

Edward Cecil will take Fashoda dispatches to England. “Tne British government has ordered £l2 to each rsserve or time-expired man who is wHling 10 re-engage with the expedi tion.” FRANCE MUST WITHDRAW- London, September 29. —The Daily Chronicle this morning de cluns that General Kitchener bad full instructions as to how to meet the Marchand expedition and that everything happened as had been anticipated. “There is nothing now for France,” says The Chronicle, “but to extricate Major Marcband from his untenable position There is no alternative to this but a declara tion of war, Great Britain will not allow armed re-enforcements to reach Major Marchand.
