Sept. 14.-Copyrighted 1896 by the Asso-

in the political situation here and it is
believed the powers will not take ac-
ton Immediately in the case of Sultan
Abdullah Hamid. A great deal de-
ponds on the result of the cars ap-
preaching visit to Balmoral.
According to palace officials, an au-
dience. which Sir Phillip Currie, Brit
ish~ambassador had with the sultan on
Friday last, resulted in confirming his
majesty that the feeling against him
in Great Britain is much more intense
than he or his advisors realized, and
it is intimated that Great Britain in
certain eventualities might be compell-
ed to take action, independent of the
other powers in preventing other fur
Their disturbances there.
In spite of this assurance it Is no

SPAIN TUMBLES.
THE COMPETITOR CREW WILL BE
FAIRLY TRIED.
The Sentence of Death Imposed on Them
By Weyler's Court Martial viii
Not Be Carried Out.

New York, Sept. IA special to the
Herald from Washington, says: The
Spanish government has yielded to the
demands of the United States for tri-
al by a civil court of the Competitor
prisoners.
Authentic information to this effect
has reached the state department I'M
officially, and the formal announce
ment is expected in the next mail from
Minister Taylor, in Madrid.
The government has reached this
conclusion some time ago, but has de-
layed the formal announcement of it's
decision until after the court adjourns
in order to escape criticism from that
body for making concession to the Uni
ted States.
While expecting this decision, the au-
thorities have become very impatient
of late over the long delay on the part
of the Spanish ministry in complying
with the demands for fair trial of the
Competitor prisoners, who have been
in prison underfa death sentence i'm
posed by a court martial for nearly
five months. Petitions have been
pouring in on the state department
from all quarters urging prompt action
in behalf of these men. Despairing of
favorable action on the request for a
civil trial. some of these petitioners
urge that an appeal be made to the
Spanish ministry for the pardon of the
men.
The department has no/intention of
asking for a pardon. Secretary Oh
ney has insisted from the first that the
men were irregularly tried and in vio-
lation of express treaty stipulations.
He requested re-trial not by way of
favor but as matter of right, and in
answer to inquiries from members Of
the senate committee on foreign rela-
lions, he emphatically stated that the
administration would never submit to
the carrying out of the sentences of
the summary court martial.
1t is a matter of considerable relief
to the authorities here to know that
Spain has found it eXpedient to comply
with the demands of the United States
in regard to these men. For some time
past it has been considered one of the
most troublesome questions in dispute
between the two countries.

BRAZIL HOPES FOR SETTLEMENT

New York, Sept. IA special to the
Herald from Buenos Ayres, says: A
correspondent from Rio Janerio, Brazil
telegraphs that the Brazil foreign min
lister, Senior ,Cerquira, has informed a
coterie of friends of high standing Off
cially that he regards the prospects of
a peaceful settlement of the Italian
question as extremely favorable.
Senior Cerquira says that the good
will of the government at Rome is as
sured, but he does not disguise the fact
that the Quirinal will certainly demand
full satisfaction for all wrongs suffer-
ed by Italians in Brazil before it will
consent to enter into negotiations for
the final disposition Of the matter.
Signor Bruno, the Italian represent
alive in Sac Paulo, declared in an in
terview with Senior Cerquira that the
situation in that state was still grave.
Seven thousand insurgents have left

rHILN rO.. i1E PIGS.
Good Thing When Tod in Connection with
 Something Else.

Something Else.
 There is hardly any doubt that with good management better profit can be realized in feeding the milk to thrifty growing pigs than to make into butter, take to the country stores and sell at the price usually received, at least during the greater part of the season, and at a considerable saving of time and labor. But in feeding milk to pigs to make the most of it, in near ly all cases it must be fed in connec- tion with something else. From the time the pig is farrowed until it is ready to finish for market, milk can be made its entire food, and later on it's principal food. The milk must at first be supplied by feeding the SOW with good milk-producing food, and as soon as the pig learns to eat it can be fed milk, and if the SOW is fed sloppy foods made up with milk the pig will learn to cat much earlier than if corn or grain of any kind is depended upon
 But in nearly all cases the best way of feeding milk is in connection with other foods, as it requires too large an amount of milk alone to make pound of gain in a pig. But made into slop with middlings and bran, oil meal ard bran, or cornmeal and bran, it not only makes a healthy, but an economical food. But even then the lowest cost of growth will not be realized unless, in addition, good pasturage is provided. Give growing pigs the run of good pasture-clover is always best-and then feed good milk slop night and morning, and in a majority of cases the best growth at the lowest cost can be realized. And if this is done milk can be sold at q better price. fed in this way to vigorous, thrifty pigs, than will be realized by making into butter at eight or ten cents pound at the coun- try store, and ali of the labor of but ter making be avoided in addition. It is true that ln majority of cases the same milk and the same amount of labor spent in making poor butter will, with different management. make but ter that will bring two or three times that much.

Epicures sniff at the terrapin found in the Delaware and Chesapeake canal, but natives of the region eat him with delight. He is locally known as the red belly. Some persons eat him at any size, but the large red belly is not so palatable as one, say, the size of an av- craze male human hand. Properly cooked and dressed with rich sauce of cream, salt, pepper and wine, the red belly is excellent, and he doubtless forms part of many dish of terrapin served at high rates in more or less fashionable restaurants.
