THE RESIGNATION
 OF GENERAL GOMEZ.
He Is Opposed to the cubaus Yielding Control of Affairs to the United
 States Government.

Santiago, Sept. t5.-An uncontra- dlcted report has been received by Gen. Lawton that General Maximo Gomez, the insurgent commander in-chief, has rendered his resignation of the con- mand of the Cuban army to the Cuban government at Camaguey, and that 1t has been accepted.
 Gomez it appears, has been protest ing against the Cuban government yielding the control of affairs of the island to the Americans, and the ex- planation for resigning was his disap- proval of "passive submission to con- ditions tending to the practical destruc- tion and retirement of tho Cuban re- public as such and the establishment of the absolute dominion of tho United States. ?
 The Cubans at Santiago are much ex- cited by the report and there was an an- imated scene at the San Carlos club when the matter was discussed. The report was disbeiieved by many who say that Gomez resignation at this time is utterly improbable. Others, however, says Gomez resents the putting of the Cnban army under the authority of the American generals and claim the Gubans should resist even by force of arms if necessary.
 Cebreco. Castillo, Pedro, Perez and other insurgent leaders have turned over their commands to General Law ton. General Perez has 5000 men in the vicinity of Guantanamo which he will disband this week by order of General Castillo. There is now general desire on the part of the Cuban army to dis band, as the insurgents have learned that the question of their back pay will not be considered by the Americans.

gestion and disordered liver mean that a man is fighting the first round with death. Unless he manages to strike the knockout blow, it means that death will come up in the second round i'll the guise of some serious malady. When a mans stomach Is weak and his digestion is itnpaired, the ife-giving elements of the food he takes are not assimilated into the blood The blood gets thin and weak, and the body slowly starves. In the meantime the disordered liver and the sluggish bow els have forced into the blood all manner of impurities. The body is hungry and eagerly consumes anything that the blood stream carries to it. In place of healthy nutri1nent 1t receives for food foul poisons that should have been excretcd by the bowels. Continued this system of starva- ton combined with poisoning, will wreck every organ in the body Naturally, the weakest organ will give way first If a man is naturally nervous, he will break down with nervous exhaustion or prostra- tion. If he inherits weak lungs, the con. sequence will be consumption, bronchitis asthma or some disease of the air-passages If he has naturally sluggish liver, lie will suffer from serious bilious or malarial at tack. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov- cry cures all disorders of the stomach, di gestion and liver. It purifes the blood and fills it with the life giving elements of the food that build new and healthy tissue. II Is the great blood-inaker and flesh builder and nerve tonic. It cures o8 per cent. of all cases of consumption. Thousands have testified to their recovery from this dread disease under this great medicine.
