EMBARkING FOR CUBA.
The Troops at Tampa Are Ready TO Sail
About LOCO Regulars viii 60.

washington, June S.-After the cabi-
net meeting yesterday Secretary Alger
announced that he had received tele-
gram from General Snafter, at Tampa,
stating taa! tne troops at that place
were benz puJ on transports, and that
they would al be embarked by this
morning..
The telegram further stated that the
vessels would sail for Santiago to-day
or Thursday ard that they would ar
rive at Santiago by Sunday.
1t is stated that between $4,000 and
10000 regulars will be embarked.
This is the first official acknowledge
ment of the embarkation of troops. 1t
is thought by some that General Shat
ter's telegram has been delayed sever
al hours, and that the embarking began
Monday night, as clearly unoe. stood
here.
The statement that the regulars were
going to sail does not controvert the
statement that the siege trains and
heavy artillery, as announced la these
dispatches yesterday, havs already
landed in Santiago.
1t was announced at the cabinet meet
ing that telegram had been received
from General Shafter and that the
troops We're already on board the trans
ports.
No More Delay.
At the cabinet meeting the president
expressed himself as dissatisfied with
the delay in sending troops to Santa
TO and Porto Rico. The situation in
regard to supplies and equipment, az
ialI bxyn
was discussed, and 1t was further de-
termined that there should be no fur
ther delay and that the troops, which
have been delayed on account of the
blockade on the railroads, must be
equipped and supplied speedily, and
the movement to Cuba and Porto Rico
begun at once
The cabinet also discussed the situa-
ton at Manila, but expressed perfec.
confidence in Admiral Eewey's ability
to handle the conditions there, and as
reinforcements are already on the way
to him, there was nothing that the
cabinet could do but wait for reports
from him after the United States SOL
diers have arrived. The president and
his advisers felt great satisfaction over
the work of the navy and the conduct
of the war up to the present time, and
now that every effort Is being made to
put the army in first class condition,
the administration is confident that
things win move along with rapldity
and success.
The Reported Landing.
While the officials of the war depart
ment still deny that troops have land
ed at Santiago, they are particular to
say tho the army has not landed.
They do not talk about he expedition
of engineers, which, as stated in these
dispatches, is the one which is supposed
to have disembarked at Punta Cabrera,
near Santiago. This expedition con-
tanned about thousand soldiers with
heavy siege guns, and as these were
met by The insurgents the latter hav-
ing begun work on the roads leading t.
the hills back Of Santiago, there can be
little doubt that the siege guns are
now being placed in position, if not al
ready planted.
Genu.a! sI.!s5 has sent some very
plain reports to the president and Sec
retary k!ger.

REBELS CLOSING ON MANILA.
Foreigners Not Believed TO BE in Im.
mineut Danger.

London, June S.-A dispatch to the
Times from Manila, reIvrring to the
fighting Of May ~ and June l, says the
Spanish loss IN inlIeL, wounded and
prisoners was heavy. Eut, the corre-
spondent adds, the most serious feature
of all for Spain is the detection of hun
dreds of native auXiliaries. He adds:
"One native regiment deserted after
killing its officers and massacreing a
company of Spanish infantry, and reb-
els and former rebels on both sides
have been shot because they were sus-
pected of treachery to their respective
generals.
The Spaniards are endeavoring by
every means to retain the rebels, who
are attracted by promises of pardon
and high Offices.
But General Agu.naldo's attraction
is stronger. He has completely sur
rounded Manila by cutting the rail =
roads and holding the rivers by which
food had previously reached the city.
If the city Is not starved into surren-
der the rebels may carry 1t, having
now an increasing number of rifles and
field guns.
General Aguinaldo's treatment of
the Spanish prisoners is exemplary.
Few excesses are reported except
where priests were mutilated before
being killed.
Admiral Dewey Is not assisting the
rebels, but it is probably due to him
that Aguinaldos forces avoid excesses.
Foreigners, with the exception of the
French nuns, remain in Manila, but are
ready to board the refugee steamers as
soon as necessity arrives.

sped down the steep, hard hill, scootcd
across the level space at the bottom, and
started up the ascent on the other side.
There its speed, of course, soon decreased,

'Joe's alarm over the strange situation

toward the tavern. Anticipating this, the
jokers had removed Betsey to her place at

YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in adj
vanced years are realized by compare
lively few women.
Their hard lives, their liability to Sc
rious troubles on account of their pecu-
liar organism and their profound igno-
rance concerning themselves, all com
bine to shorten the period of usefulness
and fill their later years with suffering
Mrs Pinkham has done much to make
women strong. She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor-
GUS health in old age. From every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly COM
ing the most convincing statements
from women, showing the efficacy of
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming female ills. Here
is a letter from Mrs. J. c. Orms, of 22O
Horner St, Johnstown, Pa, which is
earnest and straight to the point:
DEAR MRS. PISKHAM:-I feel it my
duty to tell all suffering women that l
think your remedies are wonderful. L
had trouble with my head, dizzy spells
and hot flashes. Feet and hands were
cold, was very nervous, could not sleep
well, had kidney trouble, pain in
ovaries and congestion of the womb.
Since taking your remedies l am better
every way My head trouble is all
gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am
cured Of womb trouble. l can eat and
sleep well and am gaining in flesh. l
consider your medicine the best to be
had for female troubles"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
lelled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia f. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
