the late war behind closed doors. This
action has caused the greatest sensa-
ton.
The senate session also was a stormy
one. Generals Weyler, Dominguez, AZ
carragS palejO and Rivera attended.
Gener eyler reminded the senate of
how Cont D'Almenas had greeted the
returning soldiers, ignoring the Off
GERS. He declared that this was a re-
Election upon the officers efficiency.
THE mistakes made in Cuba are not
to be blamed upon the army" he said,
but upon the politicians at the head
Of the government" The latter, he
declared, were responsible for not
sending supplies to the armies in Gu
ba and Porto Rico and, indeed, for
completely abandoning them. THE
ministers of wal and marine" he said,
Ought to have resigned. Had the ar
my been properly equipped it would
not have failed. 1t would have been
better for Admiral Cervera's squadron
to remain at the Canaries, for no prac-
teal end was served by. sending the
ships to Santiago"
"Wha measures did the government
take to protect the squadron" Genera
Weyler asked, hotly. THE response
bilities for the surrender of Santiago
rested wholly upon the government in
stead OF on General IOfdl. 1enerdl
WeyIer strongly condemned the secret
sessions of the cortes and concluded
his speech as follows: Il desire to
speak to all Spain and not merely to
the government"
Count D'Almenas, replying to Cen
eral Weyler's structures, said: Il ad-
dressed my greetings to those who
have been martyrs for their country
to the Spanish soldiers-because they
~-1-- -,,aL ~r0Dti>o- Ii1 not
address the generals, for they showed
themselves incapable of leading sol
diers to battle or of showing them how
to fall WOrthily on the field"
Marshal Primo de Rivera shouted:
THAT is not true" and General Wey-
Ter and others Joined in the protest.
Count D'Almenas, addressing Gen
eral Rivera, replied: 81 am not afraid
of such cries or of epaulets or of the
decorations that will have to be torn
off the breasts of several officers. The
sashes of some generals should be torn
off and put around their necks."
A great uprOar ensued.
THE SLAUGHTER OF THE DER
WISHES.
London. September THE British
war office has received a dispatch from
General Sir Herbert Kitchener, the
commander of the AnglO-Egyptian
forces, dated from Omdurman on Mon
day last, saying thai over 500 Arabs,
! mounted on camels, were despatched
after the fugitive, Khalifa Abdullah
that morning. The general added that
! the dervish leader vas reported to be
! moving with such speed that some OF
his wives had been dropped along the
road followed by him The Sirdar says
also: "Oficers ave been counting the
dervish bodies on the field and repOr1
the total number of dead found as
about 10000. From the numbers OF
wounded who have crawled to the riv-
err and town, it is estimated that 6 ZOO
| were wounded. Beside the above be.
tween 300 and 400 dervishes were killed
in Omdurman when the town was tax
en-. l have as prisoners between 5000
and 1000 fighting men,"

A Sensational RumOr PrOned False

Jacksonville, Fla, September T.
The sensational report that gained cur
rency here this afternoon and which
was telegraphed over the country to
the effect that a member of the Fourth
Virginia regiment found himself trans
ferred to the tent for the dead after an
attack Of fever is denied in toto by
Major J. R. Kean, surgeon in charge
of the Second division hospital, where
the thing was reported to lave occur
red. The medical staff are indignant
at the charge, which they say is base
less and impossible. An examination
of the record of the patients in the
hospital shows that his temperature
at no time Of his sixteen days stay in
the hospital was above 1O2 and ran
most of the time below 100 and at no
time was he seriously ill.
The matter is to be thoroughly in
vestigated by the medical corps and
the charges will have to be established
before a court martial.

ills Just as Important

That you enrich and purify the blood
in the Fall as in the Spring. At this
time, owing to decaying vegetation, a
low water level, and other causes,
there are disease germs all about us,
and a weak and debilitated system
quickly yields to attacks of malaria,
fevers, etc. By purifying and enriching
your blood with Hoods SG~-saparilla
you may build up your system to resist
these dangers, as we'll as coughs, colds,
pneumonia and the grip which come
with colder weather. To be on the
safe side, take Hoods Sarsaparilla

Greatest Season in the History OF Car.
DINA Beach.

Captain John w. Harper, of the
steamer Wilmington, tells us that the
season at Carolina Beach will close
next Tuesday. Last year the beach
witnessed the largest business in it's
history. Captain Harper tells us that
this season he has done eight per
cent more business than he did last
year, so that this season is a record
breaker for this popular resort. This
is a splendid record when it is consid-
cred that the war with Spain early in
the season hurt the business, and the
