Those Taken by the Itata, and Where Did
She Get Them?
WASHINGTON, June 8.-Nothing is known
in official circles here of che reported Sc
creting of arms by the Itata before her
surrender to Admiral McCann. It is as
sumed from Admiral McCann's reports to
the navy department that the insurgents
have been acting in good faith throughout,
but in any event the arms and ammunition
will cut smaller figure in the legal pro-
ceeding than at first supposed, and even if
some Or them have been landed in Chill it
is doubtful if this government has room to
complain. Ths fact that she took arms
aboard at sea might be of Importance dur
ing the trial as evidence tending to sustain
a libel, in its allegation of her purpose to
break the neutrality laws, but
oral evidence would be quite as
effective as the production of the arms in
court. So it appears that there was no alb
solute necessity for the surrender of the
arms to Admiral McCann. It is possible
that the testimony may show that they
were transferred from the Robsrt and
Minnie to the Itata within three miles of
San Clelnente island, in which case it must
be held that the transfer took place in
United States waters. But if this should
be the case it would have to form the sub
ject of new libel.

Offers for the Bonds.

WASHINGTON, juno 8.-Several offers for
the extension of the four and half per
cent. bonds have been received at the treas
ury department this morning. They are
all from western banks. Secretary Foster
called on the president this morning and
informed him of the result of his recent
conference with bankers and brokers in
New York and of their proffered willing
ness to take up the entire four and hal
per cent. loan if extended at two per cent.
No conclusion was reached at the confer
ence aud the question will be considered at
cabinet meeting tomorrow. There is much
conflict OF opinion as to the future action
OF the treasury department with respect to
the loan, but it is generally understood that
Secretary Foster favors it's extension at two
per cent He admitted as much this after
noon. He said such q course would raise
the credit of the government, and
at the same time ennble national
banks to increase their circulation, a
thing greatly needed after the recent heavy
shipments of gold. He said also, however.
that there were 30 many strong arguments
in favor of extension at a lower rate of in
terest that he really did not know but
what it might finally be concluded to fix
the rate at one per cent. Western banks,
which are said to favor the one per cent
rate, hold more than half of the entire
amount owned by national banks, but east
ern bankers will purchase the entire out
standing loan of $53,00O.0o0 at two per
cent, while western bankers have spoken
only with respect to the bonds now held by
them.

Insurrection in Hayti,

New York, June 8.-The steamer Orange
Nassu arrived to-day from Port au Prince
and brings the first definite news of the late
insurrection in Hayti. The uprising was
of serious character and for time
threatened important consequences but the
government repressed the rebellion by
prompt and stern measures. Insurrection-
lists stormed the prison at Port au Prince and
number of prisoners were released when
the military appeared on the scene and
captured the whole party. N. B. Walker. a
well-known resident OF Port au Prince, a
passenger on the steamer, states that there
is considerable excitement at that city.

DIET IN SClATIc NEURALGIA.
The Importance Of Proper Food in Thii
Painful Malndy.

The Importance Of Proper Food in This
Painful Malady.
Sciatic neuralgia is in the great ma
jority Of cases due to hypersthesia of
the sympathetic ganglia, situated Just
back of the stomach and which controls
the digestive processes. This ganglia
is sometimes called the abdominal brain
and in all of the lower animals, the
largest mass of nerve fiber is located
here. Any improper diet, condiments,
spices, pickles. rich foods and all other
things which irritate the stomach, have
a reflex action upon the abdominal
brain and this in turn affects the lum-
bar ganglia. Deep pressure made at
the pit of the stomach just at the lower
end of the breast bone will often show
sensitiveness which is traceable to
the solar plexus. Deep pressure also at
the right or left of the umbilicus will
often cause pain showing irritation of
the lumbar ganglia. In this case the
neumo-gastric nerve is also affected and
the patient may have one-sided head
aches upon the same side as the tender
ness 1t also takes on other forms.
One patient had symptoms OF asthma
which found originated in this reflex
irritation and by pressure upon these
sensitive points could bring on an at
tack of asthma at once. These are
cases which no change Of climate will
benefit. for they carry with them dis
order really Of the stomach which no
climate will reach. In other cases the
irritation may be in the sciatic nerve.
and no nerve stretching, blistering or
local treatment will effect cure It is
plain then that diet has great deal to
do with sciatica. j. III. Kellogg.
