DECLARATION OF WAR.
1t VIII be Made by Enforcing Cuban Inde-
pendence by a Military Demonstration.

Washington. d. c.. April l.
Speaking Of SPANS reply received,
the Post says:
at not what the President, hoping
for the best, had expected. 1t is almost
a vague and unsatisfactory note from
Minister Woodford. devoting more
space to his Impressions of what the
Spanish government will and will not
do than a formal expression from the
Spanish ministry of its own position.
Spain does not accede to the Ameri-
can demands. Neither does she posi-
lively and finally reject them. The
question is still left open for future
negotiations.
According to the traditional policy
of Spanish diplomacy, more delay is
requested and much evasion Is mani
tested. One of the reasons for asking
further time is the fact that the min
istry cannot act without the ratifica-
ton of the Cortes, which is not now in
session. Counter propositions are also
suggested, rather than plainly stated,
which look to the sidetracking of the
main issue, which is the immediate and
complete independence Of the island of
Cuba.
1t is now question with the Presi-
dent whether he will continue to treat
with Spain further along the lines sug-
gested In the dispatch. and grant the
additional time which is requested.
No message will be sent to Congress
today. The reply of the Spanish gov
eminent will be considered at the meet
ing of the cabinet this morning, and
then It will be decided whether an ulti-
matum viii be sent to Spain.
Up to this time. no ultimatum: In the
diplomatic sense OF the word. has been
forwarded. If sent, 1t will mean that
Spain must, within twenty-four hours.
answer specifically as 10 the de mands
made by the United States. In the
event of failure to answer or II posi-
tive rejection of the American PROPOSE
lions. the President will suggest TO Con-
gress the advisability of recognizing
the independence of Cuba and enforcing
that recognition by n military demon
stration. This will practically be n
declaration of war. although 1t will not
go literally to that extent.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
The New Medical Discovery Tested.
Results of the Test In Various Forms OF
Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
while very common trouble, has for
some time been looted upon by able
physicians as u serlUds thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating II
properly at the start, because recent re-
searches have shown that the most SER
ious, fatal and incurable diseases have
their origin in simple dyspepsia or in
digestion.
Diabetes Is simply one form of in
digestion, in sugar and starchy food
not being assimilatcd by the digestive
organs. In Bright's disease the albu-
men is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and 1t Is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil fol
the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find a
remedy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia, as 1t is VIGOROUSLY
obstinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike. until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance of n
new dyspepsia cure In the medical
world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which 1t was claimed was as
a certain. reliable cure for every form
of stomach trouble.
Physicians. however. would not ac-
cept such statements without first CIV
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be specific, rad
zeal lasting cure for indigestion In the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or
sour stomach. gas or wind on stomach,
too much bile, undue fullness or pros
sure after eating similar symptoms re-
suting from dlsordered Indigestion.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until this three
years trial left no doubt as to their
value and they have recently been
placed In the trade and can be found on
sale at NIL druggists at the nominal
price of so cents per package.
No eNtravagant claims are made for
the remdy. 1t will not cure rheumatism,
pneumonia. typhoid fever nor anything
but Just what 1t Is claimed to cure and
that II every form Of stomach trouble.
No dieting Is necessary good whole
some food and plenty of 1t and YOU may
rest assured that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest II.
Druggists claim for II that II IL n
pleasure to recommend II TO dyspeptics,
because 1t gives such universal salts

Cairo, March SLIT is announced in
n dispatch from Atbara that an i'm
portant reconnaissance was started by
the Anglo Egyptian troops Wednes-
day. Eight squadrons of cavalry, four
Maxim guns, battery Of horse artil-
lery, two battalions of infantry and
the whole of the mounted troops
reconnoitered the Dervsh position
eighteen miles from Atbara this morn
ing and encountered 600 of the enemy's
horsemen, whom they drove in and
pressing forward fought Mohmand's
position in the heavy bush. strongly
intrenched. with pits filled with rifle
men and protected by thick zeriba.
In the center was a small hill with
three tiers Of intrenchments filled with
spearmen.
The whole position was swarming
with Dervishes ready for the attack.
The artillery opened fire at 1000 yards.
The effect was apparently good, but It
was difficult to judge to a certainty
owing to the thick bush. The Maxims
also swept the front OF the position.
The Dervishes, however, did not reply,

Navy Department Now Considering How
to Conduct the War.
Washington. March 3l.-Apparcntiy
there was no cessation today of the
extraordinary activity which has pre-
vailed ut the navy department during
the past month. Now that many of
the emergency preparations are well
under way. more attention is TO be
paid to the broader question Of n plan
of campaign In the event of war. I'm
der this head comes the establishment
of a depot to be used as a base of sup
plies, and on this matter the COM
mercial interests Of the country are
making themselves heard.
Senator McEnery and Representa-
tives Meyer. Ogden and Davey of
Louisiana called upon secretary Long
today and supplemented the represen-
tations of merchants who were here
last week urging the selection of New
Orleans as q base OF supplies. They
said the city, being situated some dis
lance from the Gulf, was reasonably
safe from attack by fleet. and being
a railroad center and situated on the
Mississippi river. grain and other sup
plies could be shipped there in great
abundance. The secretary did not
commit himself. The delegation also
spoke to the secretary in regard to the
defense of the city of New Orleans
but the secretary expressed the opin-
ion that with a formidable fleet In the
Gulf, and such Notifications as are al
ready In existence, the city was well
protected.
The work incident to the trans
formation of the yachts and tugs re-
Gently purchased for the navy depart
ment SO as to make them practicable
for naval purposes Is now well under
way The alterations and changes
necessary are being rushed with all
possible speed. and orders have been
issued to employ sufficient number
of men to work night and day so that
no time will be lost. In the tugs par
tioularly there are numerous changes
necessary for the comfort OF the men
who will man them. The yachts, on
the other hand, are in better shape
and less work will be required than or
the tugs. They will be given n belt
of armor as means of protection fol
portions which are most Vulnerable &c

ment has purchased five yachts and
eight tugs for the auxiliary navy.
