before h aving the stat«*« that m^groes

Hs I nn am« mitisfh*«l it was in

Cubans, am! that they would tight des

Calhoun had h«»ard the rr|«»rta of

credited them in sum« d«*gree,
II is

He could not tin«! th* (»arHtantion which
was reportol.
Instead he found signs
ut war everywhere, even al the gate*
of Havana. The Spunish troops held
certain |mrts of the island as an army
of <>*«'ii pat ion, while the insurgents
were making constant ami often suc
cessful raid*.
Mr. Calhoun was so im-
pr**»»od with these evnleiH'es uf Actual
