HE WILL GAG THE CORTES
SAGASTA WILL NOT IT
TO DISCUSS PEACE TERMS
The Constitutional Guarantees Will BE
Suppressed by the Government.
War Is still On.

Madrid, Aug. 2S.-Senor Sagasta, the
premier, is quoted as having in the
course of an interview made statements
declaring that IT was the governments
intention to repress the discussion Of
war topics in the cortes. He said that
as soon as the cOrtes met the govern
ment would submit a bill authorizing
peace negotiations and next a measure
relating to the suppression of the con-
stitutional guarantees. Although Senior
Sagasta did not state the nature of this
measure, it is supposed il will provide
for the continuation of suspension.
The government said the premier,
will not discuss in any form the ques-
tons of peace and war. Indeed the
deputies would be entirely lacking In
the material necessary for a decision.
The debate could not be based on con-
crete positive facts, founded on indis-
putable documents, since the necessary
information has not arrived. / believe
no discussion of the surrender Of San
tiagO and Manila will occur, nor of the
destruction Of the Spanish fleet, unless
trustworthy data and exact proofs are
at hand. Moreover, M discussion is per
missible of matters at present under
consideration of the supreme councils
of war and marine. Mistakes or blundeTs
may haVe been committed, but thus far
we ave not sufficient material TO
Judge.
Another reason why questions of
peace and war should not be discussed
is that the diplomatic relations are now
being carried on and a debate on these
subjects might be provocative Of com
p~lications. 1t must not be said that
peace is signed and discussion not al
lowable. Peace is not signed. Spain is
still at war with the United States.
The two nations have merely conclud-
ed a suspension OF hostilities in order
to negotiate peace. These negotiations
may not be brought TO a successful is
will be recommended. That is why /
think the cortes will only be able to
discuss strictly necessary questions:
that lie. to make itseie acquainted with
the situation OF interests now at stake,
which are 50 important for the nation.
but not to engage in debate which
would assume some such proportions az
10 infringe upon the discretion which
the gravity of the circumstances re-
quires Of the cortes.
Should they ask to have the docu=
ments concerning the surrender OF San
tiago and Manila and the destruction
OF The fleet nov in the governments
possession the government would not
accede to the request. These papers are
in the of supreme councils which
alone, before the proclamation OF peace.
can conduct inquiry and establish re-
sponsibilities. The inquiries may result
in acquittals or severe sentences. even

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant Simple, But Safe Effectual Cure
 For It.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incurable.
 The usual symptoms are full or bloating sensation after eating, accompanied some- times with sour or watery risings, a forma- ton of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult brea athing; headache fickle appetite, nervousness and general played out languid feeling
 There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the interior of the stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, infiamed condition.
 The cure for this common and obstinate trouble is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach.
 To secure prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do, and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared.
 According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Diastase Asep- tic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids.
 These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a pat ent medicine, can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow their regular use after meals.
 MT. N. J. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn St., Chicago, H., writes: "Catarrh is local condition resulting from neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes infiamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom, passing backward into the throat reaches the stomach, thus producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stom- ach without cure but today am the hap pest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find appropriate words to express my good feel ing.
 "I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use.'
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest preparation well as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of Indigestion, catarrh of stomach, bilious ness, sour stomach heartburn and bloating after meals.
 Send for little book, mailed free, on stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart Co.,, Marshall, Mich. The tablets can be found at all drug stores.

SNOW IN THE NORTHWEST.
A Forty-Mile Wind Blew a. Laborer from a
 Chicago Building, Causing Death.

Chicago, Jan. 25.-A binding snow storm, accompanied by a sixty-mile wind, which ragged all day, did considerable damage in the city and caused the loss of one life. Carlos Munchy, laborer, while repairing the top of 90-foot tower, was blown to the ground and instantly killed.
 Owing to the storm this afternoon two Illinois Central trains came into collision near Dubuque, resulting in the injury of Fireman Ellis Sweet and the fatal injury of Engineer Harvey and Postal Clerk Me- Duff.
 Reports to the Associated Press from Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin show that a blizzard has prevailed in portions of those states today, more disastrous in its con- sequences than any storm for many years. Snow has fallen to the depth of foot or more, which, driven by gale, has cre- ated havoc. Tonight the mercury is fast approaching the zero mark and stock will suffer severely.

 They failed to return and search was Instituted, which, after several days, re- suited in the finding of the dead body of the oldest, a few hundred yards from the road, lying on his sack of corn. His throat had been cut. The sack that has been carried by the other little boy, was found near by, but his body was discovered a mile away in the woods, where he had evil dently run when his brother was as- saulted. His head had almost been sev- cred from his body. showing that the mur- derer had pursued and overtaken him.
 A white man named Walters is suspect ed of the murder. In fact the authorities propose to prove by several credltabe wit nesses that the man confessed to them that he had murdered the children, but had threatened to murder them if they reported the facts. The officials are searching for Walters

RIVER SITUATION THREATENING.
Water Floods the Buildings in the Low Dis-

Louisville, Jan. 25.-The situation in the river has become even more startling than on Monday. While the river is almost at a standstill here, there Is a report from Cincinnati to the effect that there is another rise on there, and that means more water for the Louisville harbor.
 The gauge of the government shows nearly twenty-eight feet on the falls. and live feet more will put the water in Fourth street half way to Main street. At late hour tonight nearly every family in the threatened district has either moved to the second story or gotten out to higher ground. The water is on the floor of the Opera hotel and several saloons are under water to depth of about foot. The water has reached the edge of the curbing at the foot of Third street, and it is with difficulty that freight is landed from the steamers.
