JUNE 7. 1897 CREELMAN, CORRESPONDENT, Talks of Cuoan War and the Methods of the Spanish- Asserts That America Has the Right to Mix in the Affair. *1 • BY THOMAS W. STEEP. • » Cuban Correspondent Scripps-Mcßae League. Cleveland, 0., Jun? 5.—1 had a talk with James Creelman this mornieg on the Cuban question. As a newspaper correspondent, Mr. Cieelman has been a careful student of the situation and backs his verdict up with a thorough knowledge of international affairs. His judgment is that the method of war which Spain employs iu lerdeavoring to subjugate the Cu ' bans is enough to justify the in terference of the civilized people who are geographically nearest Cuba. Mr. Creelman said: “The con ditions define a purely diplomatic and just policy. In the first place, the United States cannot reasona bly expect from Spain an indem nity to cover the amount of claims filed with the State department by American merchants who have sustained losses in Cuba. AMERICAN CLAIMS. “These claims aggregate $25,- 000,000 already. The revolution I has cut off a regular channel of commerce to the United States. Spam has amply shown that she will not soon be able to restore the i commerce . So much for the com mercial aspect of the right to in terfere. ‘ The condition of rebellion in a WON’T DIE SAYS DR M’CALL THE PHY SIC’AN Os Bud Hill, Who Was Shot by Lester Corley.

The will of the late Mrs. Jane Bowie was probated before Ordma ry Davis this morning. The witnesses to the will were Coi. T. W. Alexander of this city; Mr. M. Pentecost, of Gadsden; and Mr. James Bone, of Augusta. The witnesses to the codocil were Col. Alexander, Hon. C. M. Harper and Hon, W. H. Ennis, The Epworth League will give a lawn party Wednesday evening in | the Fourth ward.; j land in proximity to our own ne cessitates an increased force of coast patroling. Thia is a cost to our government which ia prolong ed just so long as the Spaniards try and fail to atop the rebellion. “Another expense by no means a small one is incurred by the ne cessity of a large force of secret police on the coast, and the prose cuting of fillibusterors from our shore. This is a treaty obliga tion ao long as this government assumes its present attitude. SPANISH fizzle. “The solitary confinement of American citizens taken as prison ers longer than the time stipulated in our treaties with Spain has sub stantiated another ground for in tervention with a view of stopping it.” Mr. Creelman has perhaps'as deep an insight into the attrocities perpetrated by Spanish soldiers as any cor-espondent within the ■Spanish lines. His knowledge of these does not differ with general impression. On the whole Mr. Creelman’s views wou'd substantiate the popular wish that the United States should quick'y put a stop on the Spanish fizzle in Cuba.

PRESSING NEED OF CUBA Is For Money. Cuban Gold Bonds Are OfferedForSale Help a People as We Were Helped New York, June 7. To the people of the United States: The Cuban League of the United States appeals to the American people for a fund which will assure the independence of Cuba. Two hundred and twenty-five thousand victims of Spain, despoil ed of their homes, naked, sick and n prison, ara starving almost within sight of our shores. Twenty thousand Cubans have already perished from hunger, and thirty thousand have died from disease, largely the result of cruel and inhuman methods of warfare. THE GREAT, THE PRESSING NEED OF CUBA IS FOR MONEY, For two years we have given her sympathy, enthusiasm and resolu tions. Hardly a hand has been raised in actual help. Let us now give her the practical aid for which she is perishing, Any help’, from our Gcvernor ment is problematic, and might not avail. With the material aid which we can give, Cuba will be free. Humanity, the love Jof liberty and the eels-interest of our people unite in this appeal. Will you not do your share ac cording to your ability? Ethan Alien, President Cubau League of United States. Let every friend of Cuba whe cannot give money, but can give time and effort to the cause, send me his address at once. ASSASSINATED A Fabmer of Tennessee Shot From Ambush.
