RUGGLE EASTERN CUBA.
Spaniards Construct n Trochs and
Are Closing the Iron Mines.


Are Closing the Iron Mines.
New York, Aug. War had broken out
in earnest IN the eastern end of Cuba when
the British steamship Strathisa, which
arrived at Port Richmond yesterday, left
Santiago de Cuba less than a week ago.
Owing to the large American interests In
the province, there is likely to be serious
international trouble, because of the proDa-
bility OF the iron ore mines being closed
down by the Spanish authorities.
A trocha has been built around the
properties of the Juragua, Spanish -Ameri-
eau and Sisua iron mining companies, ia
the vicinity of Santiago. and 600 Spanish
soldiers are guarding it, to prevent tho
miners from communicating with the in.
surgent army, which is encainped not far
away.
1t IL claimed that the principal supplies
of the Cubans come from the miners, who
provide food and keep them well supplied
with arms and ammunition, which are
brought there on vessels from the United
States When the Strathisla left San
tlago Gen. Garcia, with the main body OF
the insurgent army, was encamped In the
mountains between that city and Guam
tanamo Deserters from the insurgents
stated that they were badly in need of
ammunition and food.

Fresh air and plenty of pleasurable ex-
ercise are good for a woman. But un-
fortunately all women are not rich. Most
women have work to do-duties to per
form; duties that sometimes, wrongly,
seem more important than her health.
Nine women in ten have some trouble
peculiar to their sex because they are
careless, because they have inherited
weakness, because they neglect little
symptoms that grow into health-wreck
ing disorders.
Over 20 years ago DR.. r. V. Pierce. of

of women, and the result OF his study and
experiments was the narveiously efrec-

THE TREATY,
Proposing the Annexation of Hawaii
to the United States, Goes to the
Senate To-Day.

Washington, June 15.-The treaty for
the annexation of the Hawaiian ISL
ands TO the United States will be sent
to the Senate by President Mckinley
tomorrow unless present plans are
changed. Men close to the administra-
ton and others who are engaged in
pushing through the tariff bill have
been informed that the treaty will be
transmitted to the Senate tomorrow,
and it is stated there will be no con-
sideration of the Hawaiian reciprocity
provision in the tariff bill until the
treaty is received.
The one point of importance in
which the treaty differs from the con-
vention negotiated by Secretary Fos-
ter in President Harrisons administra-
ton. is the omission of any provision
for ex-Queen Lilioukalani and the
Princess Kaiulani. In the original
treaty it was provided that the govern
ment of the United States should pay
the ex-Queen the sum of $4,000 cash
and the same amount Of money as a
pension each year during the remain
der of her natural life, provided she
in good faith submitted to the govern
ment Of the United States, and the
local government of the islands. The
Princess Kaluani, being the next IN
line of royal blood, was to receive a
cash payment of S15O,OOO but no pen
sion. under a similar proviso as IN
the case of the eX-Queen.
1t is understood that any objection
that might have been expected to the
annexation of the islands based on the
large proportion of the coolies in the
population has been forestalled by an
article not only prohibiting the further
immigration of such laborers to
the Hawaiian islands, but also
prohibiting the coming Of any Oh the
Chinese from the islands to other parts
of the United States.

Pittsburg, Ja., June ia strike in
the tin plate industry seems certain.
and the conference on the wage scale
arranged for tomorrow is not likely
to accomplish anything tending to
settlement, as both sides are firm and
assert that no concessions will be
made.
There are thirty-nine tin plate plants
in the United States, operated by thir-
ty-eight companies, the American Tin
Plate Company operating two plants,
one at Elwood and the other at Mont
pelier, Ind.
These thirty-nine Plants represent
1873 mills, but nine of them are small
affairs and do not figure to any great
extent in the industry.
The total number Of skilled work
men employed in the industry is 1927,
of whom 273 are non-union men. The
number Of workers outside of the tom
mage men employed at tin plate work:
is 6,265, and a strike for the new wage
scale will throw about 5000 people out
of employment.
