Madrid, October -(Midnight-
The cabinet has decided upon the inn
mediate recall of General Weyler from
Cuba A decree will be issued appoint
ing Captain-General Blanco Y Arenas,
Marquis of Pana-Plata, governor-gen-
eral of the island. The Queen Regent
will sign the decree tomorrow.
According to Ell Heraldo, 10000 rein
forcements will accompany General
Blanco to Cuba.
In the course of the cable message
sent by Captain-General Weyler to
Premier Sagasta, placing his post in
Cuba at the disposal Of the govern
ment, he said:
IF the functions with which the
government had entrusted me had been
merely those of governor general of
Cuba, l should have fastened to re-
sign. But the two-fold character of
my mission and my duty as commander
in chief in the face of the enemy, pre-
vented my rendering a resignation.
Nevertheless, although l can rely
upon the absolute unconditional sup
port of the autonomist and constitu-
tional parties, as we'll as upon public
opinion, this would be insufficient
without the confidence of the govern
ment, now more than ever necessary
to me after the censure of which | have
been made the object by the members
and journals of the Liberal party and
by public opinion in the United States,
which latter is largely influenced by
former. This confidence would be
necessary to enable me to put an end
to the war which has already been
virtually concluded from our lines at
Jucaro to Cape Antonio"
Senior Sagasta replied:
81 thank you for your explanation
and value your frankness. | wish to
assure you that the government recog-
nizes your services and values them
as they deserve, but it thinks q
change of policy, in order to succeed.
requires that the authorities should
be with the ministry.
This has nothing to do with the
confidence felt in you by the gov
eminent, for the Liberals have always
said that the responsibility for given
policy does not fall upon those who
carry it out, but upon the government
inspiring it. | shall communicate
your decision to the government short
ly."
General Blanco will be accompanied
Of Cuba, by General Gonzale Hainals
as chief of staff, and Generals Pando,
Bernal and Canella.

A BATTLE ROYAL.


This Afternoons Foot Ball Contest at the
rSiand Base Bal Park.
Foot ball is truly an amateur sport
and for this reason has been taken up
by all colleges. But of late years the
game has become so popular that every
city in the country has an eleven to
represent it On the gridiron, and these
athletic clubs have mastered the game
to such an extent as to defeat college
teams heretofore deemed invincible.
The Wheeling public does not appre-
ciate the face that it has one of the
best teams in this section Of the coun-
Try and that the members are as gen.
tlemanly a set Of players as can be
found any place.
This afternoon the local boys line up
against the strong Mt. Union College
team at the ball park and it is certain
ly to be hoped that their efforts in Sc
curing this team will be appreciated
and that the attendance will be good.
The teams will line up as follows:

Arrested for Grand Larceny.

Reuben Street, the cOlOred porter
at the Arlington hotel, was arrested
in Winfield Sunday by Ed Coates,
upon the advice of the officers here,
and searched for diamond stud val
ued at $50 which Joe Griffith, travel
Ing man for the Smith-MCCOrd Dry

stolen from him. Street did not have
the diamond in his possession and he
was turned loose. Later message
was sent to GATES to arrest him for
stealing feminine wearing apparel
from a Chicago travelling man named
Barrett. Sheriff Heskett went to
Winfield that night and In company

night for Arkansas City on business
for the colOred Knights Of Pythias
lodge. His arrest in Winfield was a
surprise to him. lie claims to be in
nocent Of stealing anything.
The suspicion that he had stolen
Griffith's diamond led to an examina-
tiOn Of his effects in his room at the
Arlington. Several suits Of ladies'
underwear and some hosiery, two pair
of ladies' kid gloves and other articles
were found in his rom by the hotel
employees when they were searching
for the diamond. The fruitlessness
of the search OF his person and per-
sonal effects for the lost gem did not
quiet the suspicion of the officers here
and he was brought back from WiD-
field on the charge OF having stolen
the articles found IN his room, with
the expectation that he would confess
and return the diamond.
Reuben Street, the colOred porter
at the Arlington who was arrested on
the charge of grand larceny, was re.
leased from jail yesterday afternoon.
No case was made against him.

CORNER Stone OF HEALTH.
Effect Of Paine's Celery Com
pound Upon the Blood
and Nerves.

Now is the season TO lay the fOun-
datiOn for future health and strength.
The corner stones of good health
arc complete digestion, sound sleep,
pure blood and a perfectly nOurished
nervous system.
The wonderful success of Paine's
celery compound in making people
well and keeping them so, has always
been accounted for by physicians by
its extraordinary power Of nOurishing
and regulating all of these functions
1t is not strange that 50 many
unsCientific remedies do no permanent
good when they disregard this close
Independence of the nerves and the
organs of digestion and circulation,
and attend to but one deranged part
at the expense OF all the rest.
The only possible way that a real
lasting gain in strength and vitality
can come is through Durer blood,
better nOurished nerves and tissues.
more refreshing sleep and an economy
in the expenditure of nerve force.
