Bladder Troubles.

The bladder was created for one
purpose, namely a receptacle for
the urine, and as such it Is not liza
bic to any form Of disease except
by one Of two ways. The first way
is from imperfect action Of the kid

VIGOROUS WAR POLICY.
Uncle Sam Proposes to AnnihiIate spain's
Fleet and Capture and Occupy Her
Land Possessiona-

Lana Rosae0siOnA
WASHINGTON, May 1O-President
Mckinley and his cabinet at the spe-
cial war council held yesterday decid-
ed upon several important changes in
war policies. Gen Merriam is to go to
the head of the Philippine relief corps
and Gems. Shafter, Wade, CoppinRer
and Lee will be among the first to
land in Cuba. The latest war plans of
the cabinet meet the approval of the
war and naval boards of strategy, be-
cause action is promised on both land
and sea- As now suggested by the
orders given and being carried out
the president proposes:
First-To annihilate the Spanish navy on the
Atlantic, even If it is necessary to cross the
sea-
Second-To begin at once the land movement
against Cuba with force so large that the fall
OF Havana and the complete surrender OF Span
ish rule in the island is assured before the
rainy season
Third-To back up Adm Dewey with men
and arms suf1icient to subJugate all the Spanish
in the various groups of the Philippines and to
do these several things regardless of the money
and men they may require.
Fourth-To provide for the military occupa-
tIon OF all the islands captured from Spain and
to hold them by force of arms until their dis
the war is at an end
The determination to send a big army
into Cuba, which is an entire change
of plans. is due to the reports just re-
ceived from the special agents sent by
Gen. Miles to the insurgents. These
show that the United States cannot
rely upon the insurgent army to whip
the Spaniards- The insurgents are
poorly armed and just now are suf-
fering for food. 1t is the absolute
knowledge of all these which caused
such a decided change in the plans
heretofore mapped out. There may be
delay, but it will not be prolonged
By the latter part of the week, the
regulars will be moving and within
two weeks they will be joined by the
volunteers ordered to mobilize at
Chickamauga.

THE GREAT BATTLE.
Detailed Account of the Struggle
That Made Dewey Famous.
"Remember the Maine Was the Inspiring
Cry That Stirred Every American to Ac-
tion-Estimate of Spanish Losses
Made

New YORK, May 9.-The New York
Herald has received detailed account
of Dewey's victory from it's correspond
ent at Manila, who stood beside Adm.
Dewey during the fight, under date of
May l, by way of Hong Kong, May Z.
The complete dispatch is as follows:
Not one Spanish flag flies in Manila bay to-
day Not one Spanish warship floats except as
our prize. More than 200 Spaniards dead and
500 to 700 wounded attest the accuracy of the
American fire Commodore Dewey attacked
the Spanish position at Cavite this morning.
He swept fve times along the line and scored
one OF the most brilliant successes in modern
warfare That our loss Is trifing adds to the
pleasure OF victory without detracting from its
value The number of hits our vessels received
proved how brave and stubborn was the defense
made by the Spanish forces
Eight Slightly Wounded.
Miraculous as It may appear none of our men
were killed and only eight men we're wounded.
Those who were injured suffered equally slight
wounds. Commodore Dewey arrived of Ma
nila bay last night and decided to enter the bay

far enough to place the supplies
in the hands of the insurgents. The
expedition will be in charge of Capt.
w. Fl. Dorst, Gen. Miles aide, who has
just returned from Cuba. The Gnssie
has on board between 5000 and 1000
Springfield rifles, about 200, 900 rounds
of ammunition and several hundred
boxes of provisions, consisting prin-
cipally of canned meats and hardtack.
The utmost secrecy is maintained re-
garding the point of landing, but
in view of Capt. Dorst's recent
landing near Havana, where he
communicated with the insur-
gent leader, Gen. Delgado, it is
believed that the expedition will be
headed for point not far from Ha-
vana. Before a week has passed
it is t1,Ieved that the insurgent lead
ers will have been furnished with
arms enough for at least 5000 men
and, with a base of supplies estab-
lished on the coast, a vigorous cam
paign against the Spanish forces will be
inaugurated. Maj. Gen. James F.
Wade is now in command of the army
of invasion, by his right as senior off,
Ger, displacing Maj. Gen. w. r. Shat
ter. heretofore in command. Orders
to this effect were received from Wash
ington last night. Large amounts of
powder and projectiles for the block
aiding squadron are now arriving here.
