prosecute a hopeless war.

from Spain short of absolute independ

TjMtolHIejComnatrlotB.
New York, ' Nov.v The Herald
prints the following letter from Max.
imo Gomez of the Cuban army of liber
ation dated at his camp in bancti
Spiritus:
'The enemies of Cuba have circu
lated in the United States the rumor
that I am disposed to accept autonomy
as a basis of a settlement or solution of
the present war. The constitution of
Cuba absolutely establishes in its
article 11, that peace is to be negotiated
upon the basis of absolute independence
of Cuba. It is to obtain independence
that we have been fighting for two
years and will continue to fight until
victory is ours we will fight for abso
lute freedom, as we stated in the
manifesto , issued at Monte Cristo,
as was also later set aown in
our constitution, and we are daily,
confirming it by the shedding of
blood in the battlefield."
Salvador Cisneros, formerly presi
dent of the republic of Cuba, writes to
the Herald:
"Independence or death has been
our motto. We would rather see our
beloved country disappear amid a heap
of ashe3 than accept any concessions
no matter how ample, unless they
carry with them the absolute indepen
dence of Caba."

Heath on All Sides.
New York, Nov. 8 A World
special from Havana says:
Weyler has gone, but his purpose to
"exterminate the breed" of tne Cuban
patriots is being fulfilled. Starvation
is killing the concentrados by tens of
thousands. Hunger is doing what
Spain's 200,000 soldiers cannot accom
plish. The frightful sufferings' of
those who survive cry out to the mercy
of the civilized world. The physicians
of Havana are now. forbidd 3D to give
starvation as a cause of. death. -
A correspondent In the town offSan
Domingo writes:
"A multitude of siatt fall and die in
the streets hersand Ho until, after
having secd as ignominious specta
cles for tome hours, they are collected
aad hauled away in carts used for garb
age to the slumping grounds. Most of
these bodies a.e thrown into the fields
to be eaten by fehe birds and dogs."
Both the newspapers which support
ed Weyler and tbosd who opposed him
are now forced to tell Jjalf the truth
about the starving Concentrados.
Here are some whole truth made uu-1
deniable: - .
Since Weyler's proclamation J riv
ing the country people into the town
was issued, half the rural population of
Western Cuba has died. Half of those
who survive are so weak, so emaciated,
that the flickering 9park of life in
them will surely soon be extinguished.
They cannot survive, although Blanco,
the governor-general, has ordered that
service rations be issued to them, ra
tions such as his soldiers get. The
lives of the other half of the surulvors
Blanoo will save.
Photographs of starving children
speak louder than any words. These
photographs are taken at Guanabacoa
within an hour's travel of the palace
here. Remember that with natural af
fection intensified by suffering the par
ents of thes e children have given to
them every morsel they could scrape
together. The mothers of these chil
dren deny themselves food, refuse to
eat the miserable scraps of meat and
bread that they may keep life in their
children. The cbildrens' legs were
like pipestems. One could count their
ribs.' Their joints, made dispropor
tionately large by emaciation, seemed
immense. Ihese are not isolated
cases. There are thousands And
thflMSnds like them.

of recent years. - . .
Foreign affairs will demand ana re
ceive considerable attention. There
is Hawaii to be annexed or placed in
some equally positive ay under tho
protection of the American flag. The
extension of belligerent rights to the
Cuban revolutionists is freely pre
dicted as one of the early acts of the
session. Then the Nicaraguan canal
question will come up again when Ad
miral Walker and his colleagues, who
have been sent down to examine the
proposed route, return and make their
report; and the treaty of arbitration
with Great Britain is expected to be
revived in some shape by its advocates.
But these foreign matters, interest
ing as they are, will occupy but little
time of the congress compared with
Uhe important questions of Internal
economy with which It will have to
dedl. Take the currency question, for
exajmple. .Secretary Gage has been
harijl at work all summer and expects
to baye.a scheme for currency reform

venes. 'This will have the backing of
the administration; but there will be
dozens of other schemes suggested,

lief, and it w li be a long time before

LIVER AND X EATS.
Roentgen's Discovery Useless
Where That Organ Is Involved.
Bach Is th Result Reached la the Er
perUnents of Depnty Surgeon-General
Forwood, -of the United
States Army.
If a non should have the misforaune
to receive a shot in the liver it would
remain there unless found by the an
cient method of probe and knife. X
rays, Roentgen s process, aided by the
appliances devised by all theelectrical
scientists of the age, are powerless
against the texture of the liver. Prac
tically every other portion of the human
anatomy will yield to the penetrating
power of the fiuorescope, but that liver
declines to do anything of the kind.
At least this is the decision reached
by Dr. William H. Forwood, of the
United States army. He declares that
he has been unable to locate anything
in or behind the liver when the rays
are sent upon the body from the front.
They" will not penetrate that organ.
Dr. Forwood is officially known as
lieutenant colonel and deputy surgeon
general. He is on station at headquar
ters in Washington and the duties of
his office leave him considerable leisure
time. This time he has used for many
years in the study of applied sciences
111 tne practice 01 bis profession. He
is noted in the medical world as an ex
perimentalist, and has produced some
results which have overturned precon
ceived ideas. As a medical officer of
the army, and a ranking one at that,
he has the facilities at hand or attaina
ble for anything which will assist in
nicking experiments. As soon as Prof.
Roentgen mode his discovery known.
Dr. Forwood began his experiments.
He secured all the appliances by requis
ition, "for the good of the service," and
established a Crookes tube laboratory
unexcelled in the country.
Then he commenced his experiments.
He photographed his orderly f ronl every
possible standpoint, causing that use
ful, but somewhat sensitive man to
1 a strong desire to get out of the
service. He practiced on the hospital
corps, and induced many of those who

gunning for livers, but so far haa
been able to land one. .-v,
Dr. Forwood was a member of the.
army retiring board which adjourned
Friday. morning hfter fielding sessions
for several weeks' at Uen. MerritCf
headquarters in the Pullman building.
He is an enthusiast in medical matters,
and especially X rays. It is said that
he wanted to photograph the alleged
disability of every officer who appeared
before the board to be examined for
retirement. If they were all right the
rays would show it. But somebody
suggested that one of the officers suf
fered from chronic biliary derange
ment.
"Oh, well," said the deputy surgeon-
general, "if that's the matter with him
we 11 have to try him in the old way.
can't get a liver with the rays."
That- started the investigation con
cerning, the power of .the rays. Several
of the officers detailed for duty on the
board knew Dr. Forwood s experiments
with the rny, and they asked him to
ell what he had done and what the
reeson is that the rays will not pierce
liver. The doctor agreed, but prefaced
his remarks by saying that he knew
no 'special reason why a liver should
resist the rays. He only knew. that it
does, . , , : .... 1 .
.'! have not given it up," he said, "but
it is a singular fact that I cannot get
through a liver. 1 have succeeded in
drawing everythiiig else, but this
baffles me. The increasing of the power,
ir voltage, does not help. In some things
this does assist. For instance, you can
See through a white man much easier
than you can through a negro. When
a 'darky is being experimented on you
have to increase the power of the in
strument in marked degree. This is
due primarily, I suppose, to the pig
nients in the colored man's skin nnd the
corresponding density of his covering.
Ilut this liver business gets me.
"The annoying nature of this failure
is shown when you figure the number
of fellows who get bullets in their livers
in a battle. It is hard to hit a man in
the trunk without invoving one or both
lobes of the organ. Now, a wound in
the liver may or may not be fatal. It
is not necessarily fatal. If the surgeon
goes after the bullet and finds it has
penetrated the liver, as far as I can
see, he will have to trust to luck, cut the
man wide open, or let the ball alone.
It may become encysted in that liver
and remain there for years, and then
the surgeon, if he survives and rela
tives do not interfere may hold a post
mortem nnd extract it.
"I can find anything I want by cut
ting, but what I am looking for now is
a means of finding what I want with
out using the knife. If you slash a
man sufficiently you can generally find
what it is that is hurting him, but this
new idea when perfected will, or ought
to, enable field surgeons to determine
whether or not there is any use of fool
ing with a wounded man. But the liver
bnflies me. I can see through the lungs
and bones and any other substance in
the body but the liver.
"Can- you tell what is the matter with
n man who is sick with lung troubles?"
"Under the rays the lungs look like
lace curtains. You see some fine ara
besques, but there is little to the lay
eye. to indicate that any trouble ex
ists. What can anyone tell about the
figures in a lace curtain? It takes the
most expert workers to tell when a
figure is broken. The lungs are builded
on similar lines and the exact value of
the rays on such ailments is not de
termined. I hope that they will dis
close lesions."-Chicngo Chronicle.

It may be said without exaggeration!
that the question of the hour is-tho
supply of seamen for our fleet, says
the l'all Mall liudget No jugglirsr
with figures can conceal the fact that
iu case of war we cannot send even all
our modern vessels to sea. Thought
every nerve wr.i strained at the maneu
vers, though the depots Were depleted
of Bcainen and stokers, we had to leav
in porv no less than 1C8 fighting craft.
In this total are included ten first and
sect: ad class battleships, ten third-class
battleships, seven coast defense iron
clads, four old ironclads, seventeen
cruisers, eleven torpedo gunboats, forty
destroyers and sixty-nine serviceable)
torpedo boats. Many of the . vessels in
this enormous category are of the new
est construction, and, though some are
not yet completed for sea, all should be
finished by the end of the financial
year. We have none too many cruisers
as it is, and when war is upon us we
shall want every single one to prptect
ir ulo3.sal trade. All the older iron
ciuus will be needed to convoy our slow
ocean tramps, all our coast defense
vessels to protect our unfortified ports
and towns on the coast. The French
arc known to contemplate the bom
bardment of open towns, and this is the)
only means by which we can prevent
stray cruisers doing us terrible harm.
Our battleships will be wanted for the
combat and to watch our enemies'
ports. Our ironclads lack their proper
complement of torpedo gunboats and
torpedo boats; Indeed, our, first line,
the Mediterranean fleet, has still
only two. The crews required. for
the ships which woul d not be able to
put to sea amount to no less than
22.G10 men, or, reducing them to
tho lowest possible limit, 20,000. Ships
' -are can build in three- years and less, ,
but-SinoTauan hardly be trained for .
war in twice thnt time. Since 1889 wav
havo been building faster than we could "
obtain seamen. We have on the stocks
or projected,' to-day another' mass of
vessels which require at ' least 10,000
more men. It is jrue that the naval es
timates for 18U4 contemplate an addi
tiod to our personnel of over 0,000 men,
but this is u mere drop in the ocean to
the number which we require. We
must understand that the English fleet
disposes of procticr.lly no trained re
serve. Though tho naval conflict of
tq-morrow will bo bloody beyond be
lief, involving holocausts of ships and
men, we have not merely, too few sail
ors to tftHe-orffecUvM ahlpo. Xa sas,,.
but no one to replace those who fall in
the struggle. ' ' 1
Year by year the proportion of Eng-'
Vsh seamen in our mercantile marine
dwindles, while the proportion of for
eigners increases. Of our 80,000 Able .
seamen 110 lens than 27,000 are foreign
ers, and half the remainder have had
less than four years' service. Nor is it
a question of wages. From the ship
owners goes -up the ominous complaint
-t'aartlc Swede or the German is bet
ter Ok lieu ted, more sober, more respect
ful. ;llo does not desert, he is s better
sailor, I and his physique is superior. -"The
supremacy of the English sailor
is waning," says 'the chairman of the
West India and Pacific Steamship com- '
pany. These are terrible words for' its,
whose pride and whose heritage in th
past has been the sea.
Our naval reserve numbers in its first '.
class 20,00d t men. Their - training is
limited in the extreme. They are,
many of them, ignorant of the manipu- '
lation of the breechloader, for such is
the wisdom of our rulers that they per-
bist in drilling our reserves with ob
solete guns. At Wick, where 1,160
men are trained, there is not a single ;
modern weapon. After this they get .
month at sea on a war ship. And that .
is alL The trumpet will somnd; as
many of them as can be obtained in "
our home ports will be huddled on
board our ironclads; lieutenants and
officers will be borrowed from ships in
commission, and our fleet will be put ,
to sea to 8ti re and certain defeat.
Abroad there is readiness' for instast
action, at home unreadiness. .
