FATE OE THE WOUNDED,
Army Annihilated and Stragglers
Are Devoured,
Romk, March 4. The Kingdom or
Italy is today In nstnlcof excitement,
Brief and anger almost heyond descrip
tion. Every dispatch from'Mnssnvarrodds
to the gravity of the disaster to Italian
arms at Downy and Alsas. When the
first news of General Barntcrl's defeat
reached the city, the roport had it
that only live hundred men were
killed. Then yesterday afternoon the
number tan up to 3000 killed, with
sixty pieces of artillery captured.
This morning's dispatches place the
number killed In tlio hattlo nnd along
the linrrnssliig retreat, which followed
nl 5,000. It is holleved that not, even
these figures tell the full extent of
the disaster. No mention Is mado of
the wounded, nnd there is good
reason, based on stories told of the
Italian defeats by Abysslnlans. to be
Hove Unit those wlm fell wounded
during the retreat of over fifty miles
met a' more horrible fate than those
killed on the spot. The stragglers
were also probably devoured by canni
bals. Several disturbances which called
for police interference occurred today
and the Indications arc tho people nro
assuming tho most threatening atti
tude, not only In Rome, but through
out Italy.- Demonstrations against
Crispl, the Prime minister, and even
against tho crown arc reported from
tlio provinces, liit-pllcof the fact that
tho authorities are straining every
nerve to suppress all alarming news.
It is reported this evening that tho
entire reserve of the class of J887 Is to
be promptly mobilized, and that the
department itjtaklng steps to charter
a numl)cr of extra steamships and
send reinforcements to Mnssowah,
whero, according to a dispatch re
ceived here this evening. General
Baldessern arrived today.
Nothing but tho tcrrlblo defeat of
tho Italians Is talked of In the cafes
and other public places. The Shoaus
are said to have been well armed with
modern rifles nnd cannon, nnd the
entire force opposed to the Itallnns Is
estimated to have been 00,000 men.
The probability seems to bo that
General Ualdcssnra will havo to sus
pend operations for somo time while
awaiting reinforcements from Italy.
The Italian force at tho disposal of
Italy In that part of Africa Is now
about 30 battalions of Infantry, live
battalions of the Berstiglleri rilllemen,
probably tho best Infantry In tho
Italian army, about 1000 Alpine rifle
men, and 10 batteries of nrtlllcry,
making about CO pieces. Tho entire
force will bo about 46,000 moil. Re
sides this force, the Italians havo in
their employ about 2000 Arab scouts.

OPPOSED
Does Not Favor Recognition
of tho Cubans,
VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENT
Should Not Depart from Principles
of Former Presidents,
Washington, March 4. Tho presi
dent and his cabinet undoubtedly arc
strongly opposed to the present recog
nition of the belligerency of the Cuban
Insurgents, and to nny declaration
concerning their Independence as em
bodied in tlio recent congressional
resolutions. The following Is not an
olllclal statement, but It Is known
from careful Inquiry thnt it accurately
represents tho administration's views
of tho matter:
While tho president and members
of tho cabinet personally feel the
sympathy common to nil Americana,
with tho Americans who nro contend
ing for solf-governmont, they feel that
in tholr otllclal action they should not
dopart from tho will-settled princi
ples which wero formed by former
presidents and secretaries or state
during prior Insurrections In Cuba.
Those wero clearly set forth by Gen
eral Grant In his message of 1875, In
which ho dealt with tho question of
recognition of Cuban independence
and also with that of tho recognition
of belligerency.
Both Independence and belligerency
nro facts and tholr recognition by
other powers, ns tho term Implies, Is
merely a formal acknowledgement of ''
a state of things which lightly or
wrtiiiglj has coino about. The pre
tenso of recognizing what does not
exist, "Is always, and Justly regarded
as an unfriendly act nnd n gratutlons
demonstration ofinoral support to the
rebellion."
It Is understood that tho adminis
tration does not think tho present
stngoof alTalrH lu Cuba Justllles any
change In the altltudu of the govern
ment. Its function Is to act and to
express feeling. Tho only action now
proper Is to continue to holt respon
sible for Injury to American citizens
tho only government, so far nsiipiH'tirs
kthat has, and maintains, authority In
Cuba, until botno other government
succeeds, at least temporarily, lu sup
planting It,

Hood'u Is Wonderful.
No less wonderful are tho cures ac

When tho blood Is enriched and purl

Hood's pills are prompt undelllolent
