Madrid Storm Brewing.
The Liberals Declare War on
the Existing Government.

MADRID, May 19.-At a meeting of
Liberal senators and deputies today,
Senor Sagasta, former premier, made
an important speech, in the course of
which he said: I'VE have 200, 900 troops
in Cuba, but we are not even masters
of the territory trodden by our soldiers
At the same moment Carlism is organ
izing itself in the peninsula and men
aces us with q new war, thanks to the
impunity it enjoys while the seeds Of
separation are terminating in some Of
the provinces The picture could not be
gloomier. We have war in Cuba and in
the PHILIPPINES and we have attempts
at civil war at home. The government
Is not responsible for all, but it is
unfortunate in its administration. Re-
forms in Cuba cannot solve the Cuban
question"
Senor Sagasta severely reproached
the conduct of the government in f1nan-
cial, political and diplomatic emergen-
cies, and said: "It is in this way a. new
conflict has arisen with the United
States. We wish to know what has
become of the 10000, 900 Of the former
loan, since 8,000,O are still due to the
army. In Cuba no important problem
has been solved and there has only
been an aggravation Of long existing
Ills. In the face Of this situation the
Liberal party has decided to break the
truce it has accorded to the govern
ment during the last two years. The
government has existed until now, be-
cause of the complaisance Of the Lib
erals. Henceforth the Liberals will
throw all the responsibility upon the
government"
The speech, which was greatly ap-
plauded, portends stormy sittings for
both chambers. Many Liberals predict
that Senior Sagasta will be thrown from
power within fortnight. Political cir
cIes are thorOlJghly excited

ENGLISH LAWSUITS.

They Are Expensive, and the Lawyers De-
mand Big Fees and Retainers.
In England there are many fees to be
paid by the unhappy client of lawyer
that are unknown here in America
There is a retaining fee, which is
guinea, and half crown to the clerk,
besides the brief fee, which is more i'm
portant. Then there is the "refresher"
of the leader and the "refreshers" Of
the subordinate lawyers. In England
the leaders, refreshment, which is due
after five hours, the brief fee being sup
posed to cover only the getting up of the,
case, is 10 guineas, or little over $50,
while S25 n,ust be paid to the lesser
lawyers.
According to English etiquette, no
counsel can leave his circuit to plead in
another without special retainer,
which, in most cases, cannot be less
than 800 guineas. This is probably to
discourage ''poaching"
A would be client once wrote to a
famous American lawyer, stating case
for his opinion and inclosing $50
note. The lawyer did not reply, where
upon the client wrote q second letter
and received word from the lawyer that
he had read the case and formed an opin-
ion, but somehow it stuck in his throat.
The client took the hint and sent 800
note, receiving the lawyers opinion by
the next mail.
Nobody does anything for nothing,
especially lawyer. Lord Mansfield
was 80 sensible Of this that on one occa-
sion, when he had attended to some legal
business for himself, he took some gum
cas- out Of his purse and put them in
his waistcoat pocket to give him the
necessary stimulus. Sir Anthony Ma
lone, an Irish attorney general; was 80
imprudent as to forget this fact and was
grievously punished for IL, for he was
30 inattentive to some property Of his
that he lost $4,000 a year by it, and
in the future he required his clerk to
make abstract deeds Of any property he
might buy and lay them before him,
with fee of guineas, properly indoors
ed, which the clerk was to scrupulously
account for, after which Sir Anthony
made no more mistakes in regard to his
own property. Chicago News

A GOOD THING
For Women to Re member

That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham they
are communicating with woman-a wo-
man whose experience in treating woman S
ills is greater than that of any living physi-
cian-male or female.
A woman can talk freely to a woman
when it is revolving to relate her private
troubles to a man-besides, a man does
not understand-simply because he is a
man.
Many women suffer in silence and drift
along from bad to worse, knowing full
well that they should have immediate as
sistance, but natural modesty impes
them to shrink from exposing themselves
to the questions and probably examinations
of even their family physician. 1t is un-
necessary. Without money or price they
can consult a woman, whose knowledge
from actual experience is greater than
any local physician living.
The following invitation is freely Of
fered; accept 1T in the same spirit:
Women suffering from any form of fe-
male weakness are invited to freely com
municate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass. All letters are received, opened
read and answered by women only, thus
has been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of
America which has never been broken and
has induced more than 100000 sufferers to
write her for advice during the last four
months. Out of the vast volume of expe-
rience which she has to draw from. 1t is
more than possible that she has gained the
very knowledge that will help your case
She asks nothing in return except youl
good will, and her advice has relieved
thousands. Surely any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish If she does not take
advantage of this generous offer of assist

ASPHALT SPECIFICATIONS
The Fight Being Made Before the
Board of Public Works

The claims of the Los Angeles Oil
Burning and Supply company that the
present specifications under which con-
tracts for street work are let shut out
competition by local firms will. it is
thought, result in the changing of those
specifications. The board of public
works is expected to report favorably
today on the petition of the company to
have the change made. AS the specifi-
cations are at present all local compan-
les are shut out from bidding ON street
work and many contractors who can
not secure their asphalt from the COM
panies making the kind provided for in
the specifications can not bid. The local
company that is making the fight FLED
with the board of public works yester-
day copies of letters in which it was stat
ed that the asphalt they produced had
given satisfaction where there was
rougher usage upon it than on the
streets. What the company wants is
that specifica tions shall provide for as
phalt made according to a standard of
component parts, that what composes
the asphalt shall be the basis Of it's ac-
ceptance rather than the name by which
it is known. In the fight for the change
the company is backed by the several
commercial bodies and by nearly all the
oil producers.

An Incipient Runaway Stopped

What might have been disastrous
runaway on Spring street was stopped
yesterday morning before much damage
was done. The team belongs to
the Union Ice company and was
htched to post in front of the
Saddle Rock restaurant while the
driver went in to get his breakfast. The
horses were hardly broken and had
shown an inclination to run away be-
fore, so when the driver left them he
was very careful to see that the animals
were we'll tied. Then he took seat
rear the door, where he could watch
them. While he was eating the street
sweeping inspector came along and un-
hitched the team to move them along
little SO that the sweepers could
clean the gutter where they were stand
ing No sooner did the horses find them
selves free than they made a lash down
the street. Before the excited animals
had got much Of start Cal Foy ran out
into the street and. seizing their brides,
was able to bring them to stop.
