THE SMITING HAND
That is What General Garcia Rep
resents in Cuoan Warfare
Policy Is: To Make Cuba Too Expensive
For Spain to Hold.
BY THOMAS W. STEEP.
Cuban Correspondent Scripps-Mcßae League.
The very right hand of Gomez I |(
Major General Calixto Garcia jt
stands at the head of the milita-y I
activities of the Cubans, while
Maximo Gomez represents the
brain of the whole patriot move- f
inent. Gomez invents, plans and f
determines; Garcia figh's the ene- (
my. i
After about 30 days of hard (
marching, I reached Garcia. The i
General was surprised at mv ap- i
pparauce. But f or the new eques
trian equipment I had and my gen
era! appearance, he would have
ehastised'me for trying to perpe
trate a joke. When I presented my
credentials from Santiago, and
from Cespedes, and showed him
my field pa’ ers which bor« the
stamp of all the perfecturas
through which I had passed, bis[
doubt of me was dispelled.
I don’t think that another news
paper man, save one, had seen Gar- ■
cia since the rebellion began. The
one exception was a New \orkj
newspaper man, who met the Gen-.
era! before the trochas were erect
ed and correspondents were con
fined to the cities
Garcia made me very welcome.
He had been practically exiled lor
mouths. I told hjm that I was the
bearer of good wishes from every
citiem of the Unifed States. He]
was glad of it. although he had 1
kuown that. He inquired anxious-1
ly about the intention of Congress]
as to Cuba, and he was visibly di’- 1
appointed when I told him that no ‘
p’an hqd reached maturity .
The Genera’ is a man of unusual .
frankness. He speaks without re-j
serve. He was careful to tell me
that if 1 presented any of his ideas)
to the American people I should)
put them in his own words- |
He was sitting in his j hammock f
when I had my interview with him.
Hi» tent was merely a piece of can
vas spread ..cross the branch cf a

General’s brigadier, frequently in
terrupted us for the General's sig
nature on a passport.
“We are too weak to drive the
tyrannical Spaniards from our dis
tressed island,” said General Gar
cia. leaning across the table and
rubbing »his hands. “We shall
never be able to overcome them by
force of persistency —by starving
them out of the towns.”
I asked Garcia to tell me of the
nature and meaning of the recent
mi.htary operations in the Oriente,
“Our ofisnsive movements,” he
said, “have been principally in the
attack ’■f convoys. The Spaniards
s‘ii| have garrisons in a number of
inland towns. We have not molest
ed these towns simp'v it
| would be of no practical advantage
'to us This is the situation : The
Spaniards will not give up these
towns, because that would be an
indication of weakness; the Span
ish officers would be severely rep
•rimanded. The garrisons cost
Spanish money, and we aro making
the-wat as expensive for Spain as
we possibly can.
“When a convoy comes out of a
seaport town we attack and harrass
it. We take its supplies and am
munition. I have taken a number
,of theje convoys. I took one, the
j bigest one, on the Canto, near
jGuamo, about the middle of De
i cember.”
The taking of this convoy was
I the biggest thing Garcia has done,
except ’he raidingot Guiamam
| The Scripps-Mcßea League papers
were the first to print an account
infit. The account was contained
in one of my messages sent out
“under the wire” «con after my
1 arrival on the field.
I spent a long time with Garcia
and Ihe boys of his staff. Garcia is
getting very o'd. and he shows it.
He ta« been a brave soldier, not.
only in this, but in t'w Ten Years’
War, during which he received a
wound, the mark of which be still
honorably wears.
PREACHING AT

The meeting of Evangelist Ei

BILLY MAG WILL
ACT ON CUBA.
The Secret Has Leaked Out
at last.
WILL RECONIZE CUBA.
And Startle Spain. What Did
Cleveland Do With the
Documents Relative to
the Cuban Situation?
Washington, D. C., June 5. —
The arrival from Cuba tomorrow
of Special Commissioner Cal
houn will, it. is stated, be so lowed
by a mesrage to Congress from the
President. This information does
not come directly from the White
H use, but ’he national Republi
can headquarters are not far away.
The renort goes that McKinley’s
act will forestall all future efforts
to secure adoption by the House
of the Morgan belligerency resolu
tion. McKinley all along has
been as anxious to intercede in
behalf of Cuba as any man in the
country, but he has bad no’hing
to work on.
Certain documents which the
fresident considers essential as a
base for actim should be in the
state department, but are not.
Had >be present administration
access to consular reports received
from Cuba during the latter part
of Cleveland’s administration Mc-
Kinley would have acted long ago.
DID CLEVELAND BURN THEM?
It is openly charged that these
reports were destroyed before Mc-
Kinley beegme President, and that
was what caused the President to
send Calhoun to Cuba. McKin
ley does not mean to take a de
cisive step without having some
thing in biack and whit? to pro
ceed upon. Calhoun will land in
New York Sunday morning and is
expected in Washington on Mon
day.
From areliab'e source it comes
that McKin'-ey will semi q mes
sage to Congress which will be
much stronger than th? recogni
tion of Cuban belligeiency.
When it comes it will startle
Spain, enthuse the United States
and cause rejoicing in Cuba.
A, BEAUTIFUL G r RL
Barely E -capes a Life-Long
Calamity .
It happened in this way : The
young daughter of Mrs. E. S
Gibson, Greelyville, South Caro
lina, was slowly but surely be
coming a hopele-s invalid. Her
mother became anxious and hag
gard in hei frantic efforts to save
her daughter. None of her at
tempts to find a cure seemed of
any avail. As stated in her own
words:
“My daughter was taken sick
some time ago and I tried many
medicines m vain. She was very
weak, appetitite poor, bowels cos
tive, and night sweats. She ap
peared tc be cold all the time,
being taken with violent chills at
times . Her nerves were in a very
bad condition. At last 1 hap
pened to see one of your little
books and wrote you. Yon recom
manded I’e-ru na. I gave it to
her miJ she has now completely
recovered. I owe al! that I am
worth i . this world to you for sav
ing my daughter’s life. 1 shall
always keep a supply of your nifd
icines on hand May you live
1 ng to help, those suffering as my
daughter was. ”
