May Try to Drive Out ColweIJ,

London, July 9.-The publication of
the telegram alleged to have come from
Lieutenant Colwell, the United States
naval attache here, and said to have
been addressed to the navy department
at Washington, in which the naval at
tache was placed in the position of CIV
Ing important information from Madrid
to the authorities at Washington, has
caused a sensation among the diplomats
here. who deem it remarkable that a
naval attache should communicate to
his government matters considered as
wholly belonging to the domain of dip
lomatic representatives.
1t is freely predicted that If the re-
ports of Lieutenant Colwell's alleged
activity in securing information from
Spain can be proved the Spanish embas-
sador will be instructed to protest
against his remaining here on the same
grounds as the protests against Senior
Dubosc and Lieutenant Carranza, for
merly of the Spanish legation at Wash
ington, remaining in Montreal.

Washington, July 13.-The navy de-
partment has received no word as to the
injuries to the forward turrets of the
battleships Iowa and Indiana, as re-
ferred to in press dispatches. From
this fact the officials conclude that the
injuries are not at all serious, as any
material disarrangement of the turrets
would be quickly reported.
For some time there has been diff

Can Take Porto Rico Easily.

New York, July 10. - The British
steamer H. M. Pollock, Captain New
man, arrived today from Porto Rico.
The steamer visited ports around the
island. The passengers say the people
are awaiting anXiously the arrival Of
the American army of invasion and that
it will not require much fighting to c.
cupy the island.
The Spanish forces number about
7,000 the volunteers 5000, and are con-
centrated about the capital San Juan.
When six miles off San Juan, the H. NJ.
Pollock was held up by the United
States cruiser Yosemite. An officer
boarded her and inspected her papers.

MILES REACHES SKATER.
Does Not Intend, However, to supersede
Him In the Conflict.

Siboney, July II, via Playa del Este,
July 13.-General Nelson A. Miles, COM
mander in chief of the United States
armies in the field, arrived here today
from Charleston on the Columbia. On
the way here the general paused long
enough to have a long talk with Ad-
mral Sampson, and on his arrival at
Juragua went straight to telephone
and talked to General Shafter, who was
at his headquarters near Siboney. Aft
err that General Miles went to Siboney
and held long conference with General
Shafter.
General Miles expressed great salts
faction at the situation, but would not
go into details. 1t is generally under
stood here that he is not to take the
direction of affairs out of the hands of
General Shafter, but will act in an ad-
visory capacity only.
General Shafter reported to him that
he had advanced General Lawton's d.
vision on the extreme right farther west
in obedience to instructions from Pres
ident Mckinley that he must so invest
the city as to make sure that the Span
iards could not escape to the northwest,
which has been a weak spot in the
American lines.
The First Illinois volunteers, who
came up from the landing yesterday
were thrown into this division filling
in the gap made by Lawtons advance
to the west along the northern border
of Santiago. BY Tuesdays dawn Cen
eral Shafter hoped to complete the cor
raj of bluecoats about the city and thus
comnletely hlOckada anv avenua of &C
cape for General Toral and his belea-
guered army.
This will be done by the advancement
of Lawton's division, which will be re-
enforced on the flank by the advance
ment of Brigadier General Guy V, Hen
RVS division as fast as they reach San
tiago. The Yale arrived Sunday from
New York with General Henry and the
Eighth Ohio, the presidents Own"
Canton regiment, which is part of the
division, and they are moving forward
today, slowly and painfully, however.
for the rains have put the roads in very
bad shape. The otner regiments arrived
today on the transports from Charles
ton.
The idea Of carrying the city by as
sault has been given up, and the plan
now is to barass the Spaniards with a
continual fire from the American bat
teries, carefully aimed the riflemen at
the same time shooting only at such
particular marks as may be presented
by exposed Spaniards. No general en-
gagement is expected, as an assault
upon the enemy's works would be too
costly to the lives of our troops.

1t was announced that the expedition
was to be rushed through to Santiago
and that only men who were we'll fitted

sending the men on to Cuba, they re-
manned at Charleston awaiting the ar
rival of the transports. So the men

now to be sent in a rush to Charleston
to rejoin their commands.
Before his departure for Santiago
General Miles telegraphed to General

received from the naval hospital ship
Solace that she has on board about 40
naval wounded and number of Span
ish wounded The remaining accommo-
dations will be given to the wounded

Surgeon Pursens to take charge of the
wounded Spanish prisoners at Seavey
island, Portsmouth harbor. Surgeon
Pursens has recently been at the re-
cruiting station at New York. With
him will be four other surgeons besides
the two Spanish surgeons. They will
afford exactly the same surgical care
to the Spanish wounded as that given
to American sailors.
The hospital there has accommoda-
ton for 60 men, although there are only
43 Spanish wounded in the first party.
DR.. Van Reypen has arranged, however,

but not vet aboard, have received orders
from the department to go to their shlps
at once. Notice of the departure or
some of the vessels therefore may ne
looked for at any moment.
Secretary Long has been In receipt OF
kilograms of personal nature from
Commodore Schley and, 1t is believed
from Admiral Sampson as well. II IS
supposed they have been called rorth
by the newspaper controversy over the
credit for the victory over the Spanish
squadron, a controversy which Is most
earnestly deprecated by the ofhclals OF
the navy department. Secretary Long
declines to make public these cable
grams, though it Is believed that they
tend to demonstrate the existence Oh
good relations between the two oihcers
and disposition on the part of both to
be judged strictly according to the
canons of naval law.
Admiral Sampson has cabled to the
department that he believes the wreck
ing plant, which Is now on it's way
down to Santiago to. endeAvor to save
some of the Spanish ships, is sufficient
for the purpose, so far as the question
of mere capacity is concerned. The
naval officers are particularly DESTROYS
that the Cristobal Colon shall be saved
and placed on the American naval list
under the Anglicized name Of Christie
pher Columbus.
Concas Not Dead.
The admiral also telegraphed to the
navy department that Captain Concas
Of the Spanish navy, who was reported
to have been killed in the destruction Of
the Spanish squadron, is alive, wounded
and on the hospital ship Solace. This
officer Is we'll known in the United
States, having brought the Columbian
caravels across the Atlantic and to Chi
cago for exhibition at the Worlds fair
He was very popular at the time, but
lost the regard of a good many of his
American admirers when, just before
the outbreak of the war with Spain, he
delivered before the Geographical So
ciety in Madrid bitter diatribe d.
rected against the personal qualities of
the American people
Frederick Alger, son of the secretary
of war and a captain in the adjutant
generals department, has been distin-
gushing himself before Santiago and
has earned the warm commentator Of
his superior officers, couched in such
terms as to make 1t apparent that it
was not called for by any consideration
of his relationship to Secretary Alger.
The official reports show that young
Alger in his zeal to get to the front
seized a rifle and Joined the First in
fantry in the ranks in order to get
ashore with the very first body Of
troops. Since that, attached to General
Duffield's brigade, he has rendered most
important service.

JJarbor Mines to BE Removed.

Washington, July l3.-lhe seoi
of war has ordered the removal OF ali
the submarine mines which now ploteol
the harbors of the United States against
the entry of hostile ships. This action
was decided upon at today's capihet
meeting, For weeks past-ln tact, al
most since the beginning of hostliltles-
the war department has been deluseo
with protests from the commercial III
terests of the country against the COIL
tinuance of these mines, which operated
to the great detriment Of commerce. IN
certain cases influences were brought TO
hear that secured an abatement OF the
rules. but this only increased the ois-
satisfaction in localities Where they
were rigidly applied
Practically it has been Impossible for
shipping to enter or leave any of the
harbors of the United States during the
last two months between the hours or
sunset and sunrise. The decision OF the
cabinet to remove these mines now Is
one of most signal manifestations OF the
supreme confidence of the government IN
the future and Of the exemption OF Unit
ed States ports from attack at the hands
of any hostile power. After thoroughly
considering the subject it has been de-
cided by the engineers that the safest
and quickest means of removing the
mines is by exploding them, and orders
to do this have been prepared for trans
mission to all Of the United States en-
Cineer officers in charge of harbor de-
lenses throughout the country.

CHIEF CAUSE,


Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys Is
the chief canse of bladder troubles. SO the
womb, like the bladder, was created for one
purpose, and if not doctored too much is not
liable to weakness or disease, except in rare
eases. 1t is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or IN
convenience manifested in the kidneys, back,
bladder or urinary passage is often, by mis-
take, attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error Is easily
made and may be as easily avoided. 10 find
out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty
four hours; Il sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of DR.. Kiimers swamp
