London, March ga statement has
been obtained in a competent quarter
respecting British intentions in China
1t is admitted that the British policy
of maintaining the integrity of China
and the equal commercial status of all
nations has been abandoned, owing to
the concessions made to Russia and
Germany. 1t Is added: The only
course left Great Britain Is to follow
suit, obtain equal advantages with the
other powers and secure adequate COM
pensation in her own interests This
explains the British naval activity at
Hor Kong and elsewhere. A move

may be anticipated in the near future"

Steamboat Navigation Continues I'm

Cincinnati, March 29.-Untl the
weather become settled there can be
no reliable prediction I'm regard to the
flood in the Ohio. But for the rain
which began about o'clock yesterday
morning in the Ohio valley the river
here would not have reached 60 feet.
Last night rain was reported from
Portsmouth to Parkersburg Never
theless the Ohio is falling at all points
above here.
The swell that brought the Ohio to G1
feet here came from the big Miami
below, the little Miami above and from
the hillside torrents on both banks Of
the river further up stream. From 8
to O'Clock last evening the river was
stationary. Since then it has risen
one-tenth Of foot hourly ans at mid
night was 81 $40 feet. What It will
run up to depends wholly on whether
or not there viii be additional rainfall
in the Ohio valley
The condition of the people exiIed
from homes by water Is the same as
yesterday The only difference in the
flooded districts from that reported
yesterday is that the water is nearly
two feet deeper. 1t has reached the
foot of the hill nearly everywhere, so
that to extend it's invasion it will have
to rise relatively much higher. Steam

tinues without interruption. If there
is no more rainfall a rand decline ir,

DOING GOOD EVERYWHERE.
A Medical Discovery that Effsctually Cures
Piles In Every Form.

For many years physicians have expert
mented in vain, seeking remedy which
would effectusly cure piles and other recta
troubles, without resorting to a surgical oper
alton. Many remedies were found to give
temporary relief, but none could be depended
upon to make a lasting, satisfactory cure.
Within a recent period, however, a new
remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure, has been re-
peatedly tested in hundreds of cases and with
highly satisfactory results.
The first effect of the Pyramid Pile Cure is
to instantly remove the pain and irritation
generally present and from that time on the
cure rapidly progresses and before the patient
is hardly aware of it he is entirely cured.
The remedy seems to act directly on the
nerves and blood vesses Of the parts affected
as it comes into direct contact with them and
sets up healthy action, which in perfectly
natural way brings the parts to their normal
condition.
The remedy does its work without any
pain or inconvenience to the sufferer and is
justly considered one Of the most meritorious
discoveries of modern medicine.
Piles is one of the most annoyingand often
times dangerous diseases with which humanity
is afflicted. If neglected it frequently develops
into hstula or some equally fatal or incurable
trouble, whereas by the timely use of this
simple but effective remedy no one need suffer
single day from any form of piles unless
they want to.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly harm
less, containing no mineral poisons and is also
very reasonable in price, costing but so cents
package. 1t is sold in drug stores every
where. The manufacturers of the remedy
are the Pyramid Drug Co. of Marshall Mich.
who have placed this excellent preparation
before the public only after giving it thorough
and repeated tests in the hands of reputable
physicians. The results in hundreds of cases
have convinced us that it will not disappoint

Hundreds of Families Destitute.
Sullivan, Ind, March 29.-The levee
on the Wabash river went out last
ing a loss of 100000 Twenty thou
sand acres of land are overhowed and
hundreds Of families are rendered
homeless and destitute. Citizens are
responding for miles around in their
efforts to remove families and stock
Hundreds of cattle and horses are
hemmed in. The levee is II miles long,
and was built at a cost of 900. Every
effort is being made to rescue the fam
flies from their submerged homes. 1t
is feared that many people who were
probably slow to take warning will
meet death in the flood dispatch
from Emerson says that Il, 900 bushels
of corn and G5 hogs were swept away.
An Osgood special says: The Wa
bash reached 22.7 feet yesterday, this
being the highest ever known, and is
still rising. The levees below the city
which have hitherto stood the pressure
gave way yesterday afternoon and the
lowlands of Lawrence county, already
inundated by the overflow, will soon
be a sea. The suffering and loss of
property will be great. The lowlands
of Upper Vincennes and Decker town

Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. 22.-Last season ii
was not au uncommon occurrence for the
trains from the North to reach here from one
to five hours late. The remarkable regu-
larity of the arrival on time of the Southern
Railway trains this season is matter OF
comment and favorable criticism around the
hotels and by all incoming tourists. The
schedule of the Florida Limited, the fast

Florida Central and Peninsular, is several

track has been put in excellent condition and

sPAIN's ENERGETIC REPLY.

w
with the United States.
London, March 29.--The Madrid cor
respondent of The Daily Mail gives
a version of the negotiations between
United States Minister Woodford and
the Spanish cabinet last week which
sounds rather warlike. He says:
"The note which General Woodford
presented on Wednesday was of a COM
minatory nature. 1t demanded that
Spain put an end to the war in Cuba
Immediately, r&capitulating the dam
age done to American interests, and
further limiting that the war was a
danger to the public health of the
United States, the continual smuggling
between the coast of Cuba and Florida
being the means of conveying yellow
fever.
"Spain's reply was energetic. It de-
clared that the war would have been
ended long ago but for the material
and moral help and support the rebels
were continually receiving from the
United States. The Spanish note COM
planned of the policy followed by the
United States in demanding from Spain
the termination of a war which the
United States is virtually maintaining
by the presence of a squadron in the
neighborhood of Cuba, and by organiza-
tion succor for the reconcentrados in
a manner that would be offensive to
any nation, as well as by keeping In
Havana a consul who is publicly the
agent and representative of the rebels
Public opinion rejects all idea of
yielding, and apparently neither de-
sires nor fears war with the United
States. Yet Spain knows that she is
confronted with the most serious con-
flict she has had to face since the
Napoleonic wars. There is an ominous
absence of excitement among the peo-
pie, whose one topic is the possibility
of war. 1t is the calm before a storm,
which will break when the American
ultimatum comes"
