DESOLATION IN CUBA.
- -
Thousands Have Died on the Island From I
Starvation. ? I
Havana, Nov. 13.?It is no exnggera- j
tion to say that since the date ot the i-rst.
news of t he famine in September until
the present time, 1.10,000 persons have
died of hunger in Uuha. A correspondent
writing from Santo Domingo Santa
Clara, says:
"fu a town like this of only 4,500 in?
habitant-;, it is horrible to think that no
fewer than nTty persons are dying every |
day. The cause of so many deaths is
fever and hunger, principally hunger.
Most of the dead remain unbnrled and
their bodies are thrown out in the open
country because there Is no place for
them in the cemetery.-'
"The spectacle o! misery and starvation
among the reconcentrados is beyond de?
scription,'' writes a Spanish correspond?
ent from Ssgttti, Santa Clara province.
Numerous cases of suicide of persons
who were threatened with starvation are
reported.
No fewer than 33,010 sick Spanish sol?
diers are now in the hospitals of *he is?
lands. To-day the mail steamer Isla de
Pany, which left Havana for Spain, car?
ried (58 oflicers and 500 sick soldiers.
