They Gloru in Killing Non- Ccmhatanfs and Women TWO GERMANS’ Ti LE Women and old Men are Slain They say it is Wor-e Than Armeni an Massacres which They Saw. Tampa, Fla., Feb. 4.—Dr. Wi - liam Danneill and Herr Arthur Thielbeim, of Hamburg, who have b?en touring the world as corres pondents of leading German jour nals since the Ist of April, 1895, huve arrived hers from Havana, which place they left last Satur day. For the last four months these gentlemen have in Cuba watch nig the progress of the revo lt on. “Spain is not waging war, a the word understood by tte civiliz ed nations,” said Dr. Danneill, “but is engaged in systematic butcheries of the non-combatants in Cuba. Os course the Spaniards kill the insurgen s whenever they can. hut more frequently the royal troops are engaged in burning the homes of pacificos and murdering the inma es. During our stav in Cuba, we spent two weeks in the province cf Pinar del R o and every day gath ered evidence that the Spanish are killing non-combatants. “worse THAN IN ARMENIA.” “We were in Armenia during the massacre of Christians by the I J Kurds. But we witnessed no more horrible scenes tn that comvry ihan we saw in Pinal d» 1 Rio. “In one hairnet, about ten miles from Artomisa, which we visited immediately after a Spanish raid, we saw the corpses of twelve old men, thirteen women and eigh children. All had been killed by the machete. The Spanish officers do not conceal the fact that they intend to murder all non-combat an s and desolate the country rath er than to allow the insurgents to triumph. 'l’hey seem to have an idea ’hat the United States will finally interfere, and their obje t is appearantly to render the island a desert by tne time such interven tiot is made. BOAST OF A SPANISH COLONEL. “Colonel San Martin, command ing in Pinar del Ri -, expressed such views to us. He also said that luring the campaign in Pinar del Rio tne Spaniards had killed about. 3,000 pacificos. Asked as to the uumbtr of insurgent soldiers kill ed in the province, Colonel San Martin said: “ ‘Ob, about 1,200 since the campaign begun . We would have kil ed more, but the rascals are hard to catch. However, our poll cy of desolating the country wi) eventually destroy the insurgent armies.’ ” Dr. Danneill and Herr Thielheim do not believe that Spain will ever put down the rebellion. They say hat Weyler’e claim that Pinar del Rio and Havana provinces have been pacified is ridiculous. Dz Danneill asserts that there are now no less than 8,000 armed insur gents in Pinar del Rio, in sp’endid trim for fighting and giving the Spamaeds a great deal of trouble. Georgia Lumber Sold.
