on 100000 state warrants. Iowa banks
secured tifty-five thousand of this
amount at four per cent and less, and
remainder went to concerns in Sioux
City, Dubuque and Cleveland at four
per cent. A saving of six thousand
dollars to state over methods of last

agreemet was reached.
Gen. Merritt has asked the govern
ment to increase his command to fifty
thousand at once in order that he may
meet the situation presented in the
Philippines.

government will not weaken the war
standing by disbandment of troops
until the atmosphere is much more
clear than now.

COUNCIL SESSION.

Last evening the council met in reg
ular session. A petition was presented
by Stone Il Temple asking for permis-
Sion to move their large scales into the
street directly in front of their lumber
yard. After some discussion it was
granted.
The electric light problem on Court
street was then discussed as it has been
for some time past. Some parties on
Court and Wall street complain of hay
ing no light, as the one now in use is
placed too low to do good service. Sew
eral plans were suggested, one of put
ting another light on the hill north of
the present one, and another of placing
two lights, one on each hill and taking
the one out of the hollow. No action
was taken, as it is hard to satisfy all
parties. A committee consisting of
the Mayor and Messrs. Slime and Gulick
was appointed to investigate.
After number of bills were allowed
the council adjourned.

MEAT FOR sHAFrER,s ARMY.
Transport Sails for santiago-Cuban
General ON Board.


Tampa, Fla, Aug. /. = The trans
port Michigan sailed Sunday from Port
Tampa and crossed the bar of the bay
Monday. She was loaded with fresh
meat for Gen. Skaters army, besides
a large quantity of other supplies.
Gen. Enrique Collazo, commander-in-
chief of the Cuban cavalry, was on
board and will take command of his
forces in Cuba again. Gen. Collazo
has been in this country since the
beginning Of the war, having been
called by Gen. Miles to. consult about
the work in Cuba. He has spent some
time in Washington with the officials
and now goes to Santiago under orders
from the department with which he
has been cooperating.
Gen. Coppinger, of the Fourth army
corps, with headquarters in this city
received orders to go to Puerto Rico at
once. He will sail on the transport
Arkansas, unless another boat ar
rives from quarantine before that
time. This order was something ofta
surprise, as Gen. Coppinger was ex
pected to go to Fernandina, with a
part of his corps which has been moved
there.

THE MINERS, STRIKE.
Developments in the situation Look
ing to Settlement of the
Difficulty In Illinois.

Pana, ILL.,, Aug. 1. - Developments
pointing to settlement of the miners
lockout, existing here since April l.,
were made known Monday. After
conference with the owners of thePana
Coal company's mine. Frank Frorer
and d. II. Harts, of Lincoln, Superin-
tendent Julius Broehl returned to
Pana andsummoned George G. Cravens,
president of the Miners union, and
submitted to him the proposition to
open the Pana mine with union men,
under union organization, granting
the scale price for day labor and com
pany men, and paying the miners for
digging 30 cents, the company furnish
ing all supplies except powder. This is
three cents under the scale price as
placed by the state board of arbitra-
ion, and the company claim this is
every cent they can pay and operate
their mine without loss. The PROPOSE
tion has been submitted to the men
and they have refused to accept it, but
it is believed the Pana company and
men will come to terms within few
days.

THE PH|uPP|AN PROBLEM
War and Navy Departments Realize

DISPATCHES RECEIVED FROM MERRITT.
Attitude of Insurgents nt Manila II
Similar to That Assumed by Gen.
Gnrcin-However, Philippine Reb-
els Are Stronger and Better
Armed Than the Cubans.

Washington. Aug. 1.-secretary Al
ger and Secretary Long are in confer
ence with the president over the Sc
rious situation in the Philippines.
They have important dispatches from
Gen. Merritt and ADMIRAL Dewey. Sec
retary Alger admitted the significance
of these dispatches but declined to
state their exact nature.
Washington, Aug. 1.-Gen. Merritt
has again cabled the war department
relative to the situation in Manila,
which he ffhds very unsatisfactory and
dangerous owing to the attitude of the
insurgents. In the opinion of Gen.
Merritt the attitude of the Insurgents
there is similar to that assumed by
Garcia's Cubans upon the ques-
ton of their right to enter
and possess themselves of the city,
although in this case the insur-
gents are very much more formid-

numerous, but better armed, filled
with the arrogance following numer-
Gus victories over their Spanish foes.
Gen. Merritt, however, indicates that
he will do his utmost to protect the
citizens from the savagery of the in
surgents, though his task is delicate
and difficult onG because of the fact
that he must while fighting the Span
iards, be ready at any moment to re-
pel the insurgents. The general gave
notice that he was about to combine
with Admiral Dewey in joint demand
for, the surrender of the city to the
United States forces, thus forestalling
the insurgents, and this move may
cause a rupture. 1t is possible, in view
of the fact that Gen. Merritt's cable
gram was sent from Cavite last Thurs
day. THAT this movement has been
made already by the combined Amer
loan military and naval force, although
there is some doubt about this on ac-
count of q statement from Merritt
that he may need all his soldiers be-
fore attacking. Still, it is possible that
the demand might be made without be-

NO WOMAN is EXEMPT.

Regularityis matter Of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health Is
a perfectly normal and regular per-
formance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TBuDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
IN every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
" DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I feel like
new person since following your ad-
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhea. I
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
never had any faith in patent medi-
clnes. l now wish to say that never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menStruation as Lydia E. Pink.
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me OF leucorrhea. + hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia e. 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.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass. for advice about their health.

A Dog That Talks.

Fl. w. Meyers, of yestal, N. Y. is
the owner of dog that can talk. For
years Mr.. Meyers has been a student
of the voice. In his investigations he
found the vocal apparatus of all ami.
mails to be much alike, and especially
did that of dog resemble mans. He
accordingly conceived simple oper.
alton, which at present he keeps n
secret but which he says will. in the
near future, be laid before the scien.
tific world.
The talking dog is Of Scotch collie
breed. He has several words in his
vocabulary, but those he can pro-
nounce plainest are "Oh, no." When
asked by his master to reply he will
crouch rs though in pain, throw back
his head, take q long breath and in n
deep bass voice distinctly say. "Oh.
no." He can also pronounce his name.
Carlo, in an unlnistakable manner
Mr.. Meyers has declined several
large offers for the dog, and says he
would not part with him at any price.
