Cleveland accepted the duty, and after
a lengthy consideration of the subject
rendered his award on March 2, 1897,
two days before the expiration of his
last term. After disallowing the claims
for personal damage resulting from ar

hereof n the remaining 10000 (s200.-

hereof, with interest from date at the
rate OF 6 per cent. per annum until
paid, both payments to be made by

exchange from Bogota at the time of
payment"
Colombia declined to pay the amounts
awarded on the ground that the presi-
dents decision was lacking in finality
and left several questions open 70
doubt. 1t was finally arranged that
both governments should make inquiry
as TO the meaning or certain features
of the award. The inquiries were sub
mitted to this government. but ii led
to no reopening of the case. as the au-
thorities here evidently regard Presi-
dent Cleveland's finding as inal.
Thus the matter has stood until now

SPANS DEEP DISGRACE
CASTELAR, Says He Personally
Feels the Humiliation.
THE COUNTRY'S FUTURE
1t Will Not Sue for Peace Until Utterly
Crushed-It Will Remain a Monarchy.
Useless for Spain to Enter Into
an Alliance With Germany.

New York, Lnly 13.-A special to the
Press from Washington says: In an
interview with a member of a legation
in Madrid, transmitted to the repre-
sentative of the same country In Wash
ington. Senior CASTELAR, gives some in
teresting information about the politics
of Spain and makes several remarkable
predictions concerning the future of
Europe, especially of France.
II feel the disgrace of Spain as keen
ly as though 1T had fallen on my indi-
vidual household" he laid. II weep for
her, but without avail. When / stood
by the corpse of Canovas I said that his
best friend was Angillo, who, in killing
him, delivered him from the over
whelming disgrace which had fallen
upon him. 1t may be the same with
Spain. Spain will never be aught else
than a monarchy"
He repeated the statement a by
him to Ruiz Gorilla that the revolution
of 1869 was the last revolution Spain
would see; that to-day the monarchial
government which recognized the free
dom of the press Inc individual liberty
and rights. offered all that the people
could demand and IL would be foolish
TO dream of revolution.
The Spaniards,' he goes on. to-day
are monarchists. Michaelt told me at
the time of the second French republic
there were more people In France who
believed in the empire than there were
supporters of the republic. The gen.
eral elections In France indicate much
the same feeling to-day, and / believe
in spite of the apparent solidity of the
French republic hat that country

1T would be foolish for Spain to en-
ter into any agreement with Germany
regarding her eastern possessions. The
Germans would readily interfere, but
IL would be to enhance their own

aid Spain. Their interests In Manila

HERE'S ANOTHER WAR ON
Italy Sends a Squadron to the
Republic of Colombia.
SHE WANTS THE MONEY
President Cleveland. as a Court OF Ar
bitration, Awarded an italian Citi-
zen $4,000 Damages. and
Colombia Has Not Paid 1t.

Washington, July 13.-The state de-
partment has been notified hat the
italian government has determined to
adopt force in the payment by the re-
public off Colombia of the arbitration
award made by President Cleveland in
favor of Ernesto Cerruti, an Italian
citizen. amounting to $3.50, 900. To this
end the Italian government has sum-
marily closed diplomatic negotiations
with the Colombian minister at Rome
and has notified Admiral Candiani to
proceed with the Italian squadron 10
Cartagena, Colombia, and there adopt
forcible means to collect the amount.
A dispatch from Caracas, Venezuela,
h a the Italian squadron
und Admiral Candiani left La Quay
ra on Monday for Cartagena in order
TO seize the custom house there. The
information as 1t reached the state de-
partment is to the effect that the Ital-
Ian squadron will arrive at C~artagena
on the 14th and that it consists of four
warships.
In view of the serious possibilities in
volved in the case. the United States
government has sought to avert an
immediate crisis. On the request of the
Colombia authorities that the good Of
fees of the United States be secured,
word was sent to our charge d'affaires
at Rome to make inquiry into the sta
tus of the case. There appears to be
no disposition on the part of our gov
eminent to interfere in such steps as
Italy may take for the execution of the
award, as we are p~recluded from con-
testing an award made by this govern
ment. At the same time. it is hoped
that Italy may be disposed to grant
sufficient I'M to the South American
republic to permit her to pay the award
without suffering the indignity of a
seizure of her chief commercial port.
AS its purpose is confined to the collec-
ton of the award and has no territorial
purpose in view, ii is said that the
Monroe doctrine has no application TO
the case, but that II is governed by
h rules which applied to the British
seizure OF Corinto, when the British
squadron occupied the custom house
until a claim of SIS 5000 vas settled.
The Cerruti case grows out OF the
political agitation in Colombia in 1855.
At that time Cerruti vas at the head
of a large company doing business in
the state of Cauca, Colombia. During
the rebellion Cerruti was imprisoned
by ont of h political factions, his
personal property taken from him and
his business interests were wiped ous.
The case was first submitted 10 Spain
for arbitration. but the award was not
considered satisfactory and final. Later

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you
can not get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better. so that while our profits may
be smaller on single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought proml-
nently before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgment on them
and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended
upon. They may occasionally take up
with some fashionable novelty put forth
with exaggerated claims. but are GER
tain to return to the one remedy that
they know to be reliable, and for
colds and Group there is moth
ing equal to Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. For sale by Geo. G. Jacobs,
