PRESIDENT DOLE APPROVES
Believes Negro Laborers Should
be Tried.

The matter of bringing negroes
here" said President Dole, on Satur-
day, has been discussed by the Ha-
waiian planters for some time, and
am of the opinion that it would be
wise to try the experiment. The labor
outlook is rather unsettled just now
and something should be done.
I'VE tried negro labor some years
ago, but at that time the mistake was
made in bringing them from the cit
les, and naturally it proved failure.
If proper care is given the selection of
the people, | have no doubt the scheme
would prove a success, and l believe an
experiment should be made. Mr.. Gard
ner is a man of experience in this line,
and | understand he has facilities for
bringing here men and their families
direct from the pIantations-people
who have not been contaminated by
contact with city roustabouts along
the docks.
Great care should be taken in the
selection of the people, and l have no
doubt Mr. Gardner will use discretion,
! knowing that success or failure OF the
venture depends upon the first lot sent.
| | was of the opinion that trial might
| be made with, say, 10 families, but L
read in the newspapers that there
| should be more, in order that they be
/ contented. | believe better results
would obtain if there were 10 families
on each plantation, for then they would
! feel that they had neighbOrs who they
| could visit.
Il understand, one agent has already
| expressed a desire to have 10 families.
This may be only the beginning, for
| have no doubt others will follow with
| their orders. It would not pay Mr..
| Gardner to go South for SO small an
order.
From a political standpoint, [ think
the effect would be beneficial to us, if
Mr. Gardeners plan is carried out, that
is. to select the families to the number
of not more than six from any one
locality. In that way the labor supply
of a district would not be interfered
with But if he gets his supply west OF
the Carolinas, the movement would be

there is probably an over-stock there
l am told that the rice industry has
been injured in North and South Car
DINA through so many negroes leaving
there and colonizing elsewhere. We
would have to get our supply some
where west of these States, and have
no doubt we can. Mr.. Gardner states
that he knows where to go, and is
willing to guarantee that the class OF
people he sends will be satisfactory.

A REMARKABLE CURE OF
CHRONIC DIARRHOEA.

In 1862, when 1 served my country
as a private in Company A, 18th
Pennsylvania Volunteers, l contracted
chronic diarrhoea. 1t has given me a
great deal of trouble ever since. I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permanent relief. Not long ago a
friend sent me a sample bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, and after that l bought
and took a so cent bottle; and now
can say that l am entirely cured.
cannot be thankful enough to you for
this great Remedy, and recommend it
to all suffering veterans. If in doubt,
write me. Yours gratefully, HENRY
STEINBERGER, Allentown, Pa. Sold

Rebels Have Secured Complete Con-
troll of Government.

Rebels Have Secured Complete Con-
troll of Government.
NEW YORK. July 21.-Uruguay is
practically in the hands of the rebels,
says the Herald's correspondent in
telegraphic advices from Montevideo,
and the war is at an end. While the
rebels have not upset the Government
they have forced it into a corner from
which there seems to be no escape, and
the final result undoubtedly will be the
complete overthrow Of the existing
conditions in Uruguay.
An armistice between the rebels and
the Government was signed few days
ago. 1t was to remain in force until
August 5th. Peace negotiations were
Immediately set on foot. These nego-
tiations have led to proposal of peace
from the Government to the rebel
chiefs, the rebels to be given the presi-
dency of the Republic and the Govern
ors of the six provinces. In addition.
every rebel who has been dismissed
from the army is to be reinstated UNI
der the new Government, and all those
eXiled on account of the revolution are
to be allowed to return to Uruguay.
Pedro Jose Ramirez has been prac-
tically decided upon for the new Presf-
dent. though the details of how and
when he is to take Office have not been
decided upon. Ramirez is the most &C
ceptable man to the Government, as
long as it has been forced to yield. His
ideas are not extremely radical, and it
is hoped under his administration the
interests of Uruguay will be again
brought together.

ject of testing their capabilities to
reach Dusseldorf, Rhenish Prussia,
about 20 miles north of Cologne, on the

abandoned by the natives.
The telegram also says that the en-
tire garrison at Dattakhel turned out
at $3.50 a. M. yesterday, expecting an
attack by the notorious Mullah of Pow
inaah, who is at the bottom OF the
trouble The British scouts reported
that he had collected 5000 tribesmen
about u miles away and was prepar-
ing to attack the British garrison. The
attack was not made, but the attitude
of the Mullah shows that he intended
TO fight.

SATURDAYS GAME.
Manager of Star Team Explains
Position Taken.


Position Taken.
J. o. Carter, Jr., manager Of the Star
Baseball Team, says, in explanation of
the affair on Saturday:
During the discussion over what
steps were to be taken by our club, L
was perfectly willing to make what
ever concessions were necessary to get
the st. Louis team to withdraw their
resignation Several days after the
meeting of the league, l called on Har
ry Wilder, to talk over the matter with
him. 1t happened that Thompson, of
the ST. Louis team, was calling at the
same time, and l arrived when the
conversation was about closing.
Thompson made remark to Wilder,
of which l heard but part. l said to
him that the game should be finished
on the 31st, which was yesterday.
Thompson turned on his heel, and,
with an insulting sheer, said: 1 have
fixed il with Harry
The rules for 1896, under which the
teams are playing, provide that the
manager of a nine shall have control,
except when in the field. [ learned
that Mr.. Wilder had made an agree
ment with Thompson, so | called on
the the different members Of the Star
team and stated the position and OBJ
tanned their support. Mr.. Wilder saw
the mistake he had made, and, recog-
nizing that he had no authority to
make an agreement, insisted on Satur-
day that the game should be played
l am manager, and with the support OF
the entire club, or without it, so long
as there is a manager, agreements are
to be made by whoever holds that po-
sition.
81 saw Thompson after he left the
field and proposed that l nominate
three disinterested people, he select
the same number and the six to elect
another, which will be a board OF arb1-
tration, before whom this entire matter
shall come. He did not make any reply
to me, so 1 intend to push the matter
to a decision. 1t is a matter Of viola
ton of rules, and must be settled at
once"
