WASHINGTON, Aug. is.-Admiral
cervera will not return to Spain for the
present, and reports from Annapolis
stating that he would leave for Wash
ington to-day are said at the navy de-
partment to be due to Misrepresentation.
The admiral has made no application to
leave, and It Is the belief that he viii be
the last OF the Spanish prisoners TO go
home, as he has shown a fatherly re-
gard for oil the other officers ard men
and appears to be DESTROYS OF seeing
leaves.
The navy department has not taken
up the question Of the final disposition
OF the Spanish prisoners, although It
has passed upon one or two special
cases In which the circumstances made
speedy action advisable. One Of these
was the case OF DR.. Jurada, the. venera-
be Spanish naval surgeon held with
the other Spanish prisoners at AnnapO-
lis The doctors reported that DR.. Jus
rada was very feeble, and that while he
might be able to reach Spain II released
now, he would not be able to make the
trip month hence. The navy DEPART
ment accordingly directed his release,
and the Spanish chaplain will be Gi-
lowed to accompany DR.. Jurada To-
Spain.
The case Of Captain 3Ioren, COM
mander Of one Of the cruisers OF Ger
vera's feet, has also received special ac-
ton by the department. 1t appears that
Captain MOren is not only an officer Of
the navy but Is a member Of the Span
ish parliament. With the prospect that
the parliament would renssemble at an
early day. Captain Moren was DESTROYS
OF returning to Spain and participating
in the sessions. In particular he eX-
pressed the desire Of telling the Spanish
parliament Of the generous treatment
accorded TO him and all other Spanish
prisoners by the United States. The of
fIcials here felt that such statement
from Captain MoreH could but have a
salutary effect HIS release was ac-
cordingly ordered.

There are. however, great many

Natures best gifts are doubly en-
hanced in value and brought fortn
from obscurity in a manner that IS
causing this century to be known as
one of progress.
There is nothing in the way OF a
new discovery that will prove OF
greater benefit to man in general and
to the inhabitants Of this part OF
America in particular, than Vinoi,
which represents an old and valuable
remedy introduced in a new and prac-
tical form. Vinol is being hailed by
physicians and patients alike as
glorious intervention Of Providence Tor
annihilating certain diseases OF
wasting nature and prolonging lie,
and it's discovery is a fitting climax,
coming as it does at the end of CEN
tury that will go down into history as
remarkable for it's advancement.
Vinol. as it is sold today, is fast be-
coming what all other great inyen-
tions soon become. positive necessity
that makes the world wonder how il
ever existed without it.
Cod liver oil. on account OF the
peculiar medicinal properties which it
contains. has been known to science for
years as the most efficient or all

layman. however, has appreciated the
fact as forcibly. as the professional.
that this same remedy was often rem
dered practically useless on account OF
it's disagreeable odor and taste, until
1t began to appear as though cod livei
oil might eventually be omitted from
the Pharmacopoeia.
The invention of Vinol has saved this
wonderful medicine, not as we have
known it, to be sure, but in its new
form. which is nothing more nor less
than the identical potent. remedial
factors that have made the Gods liver
famous. This new discovery consists
only in finding way of extracting the
curative principles of the cod liver
which once obtained are dissolved in q
mild. delicious and delicate table wine
And so to us is given this old remedy
in its new form, doubly efficient, alb.
solutely tasteless, and denuded of its
greatest and most serious objection,
the fatty matter itself. which has al
ways precluded the use of cod liver oil
in cases where the digestive apparatus
had become weakened. Vinol is with
us to stay. and to do good as yet is
iEcalculable.

SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

The starch factory at Limestone,

Some of the papers are making a

1t is fact well known to certain peo-

State attempts have been made to have
him indicted by the grand juries on
some charge in some way connected
with the same expedition. In both
counties, however, the movers were
given legal opinions that they had no
evidence which would hold Jeffery in

Has Great Hopes Of Saving the Sunken
Spanish War Vessels.

Boston, Oct. 24.-The Boston Fruit
company's steamer Beverly arrived at
her dock here, at O'Clock this morn
ing, having on board Naval Construc-
tor Richmond p. Hobson, who is en-
route to Philadelphia to participate in
the peace jubilee. The Beverly was "a
hours late owing to rough seas and
heavy storm. The Beverly left Port
Antonia, Jamaica. last Tuesday.
Naval Constructor Hobson was seen,
this morning, before he left for New
York on the 10 o'clock train. In speak
ing of his work in raising the sunken
Spanish war vessels off Santiago he
said he was not engaged in the pre-
liminary work which is necessary be-
fore an attempt was made to raise the
Cristobal Colon, and that it would take
at least three weeks more before any
thing would be ready. The govern
ment had appropriated 100000 for the
raising of the vessel but it will be
money well spent he says if the ven
ture proves q success as the vessel is
worth $4,000, 900.
The real purpose of his visit to this
country. he says, was to secure an ap
preparation of s1,000000 to raise the
Viscaya. Even if this amount was
fully expended and the vessel saved it
would be paying venture as this yes
sci is estimated to be worth $4,000. 600
The Viscaya, he said, had settled in
the sand which had formed a thick bed
around her so that the vessel was
resting in an easy position but dry
dry dock would have to be built around
her before she could be raised. The
appropriation of 81, 100000 would cover
| the work OF raising the Niscaya and
would enable the government to bring
| her north and put her in good con-
dition.
The Almirante Oquendo, Lieut.. Hob
| son says, is a hopeless wreck. The
| Reina Mercedes, which was sunk in
| Santiago harbor, can be raised with
but little cost and is good vessel.
when work on the Infana Maria
| Teresa commenced continued Liuet.
| Hobson, Il had so American laborers
employed, but owing to the foul at
mosphere, foul gas and foul water very
| few escaped sickness and l was oblig-
| ed to fall back on the Cuban laborers
| These men seemed to stand the work
very well and under supervision can
do good work.
"There is growing sentiment l find
| among naval officials that every one OF
the sunken war vessels should be rails
ed and If found to be seaworthy should
be kept as relics. The Spanish vessels
which have been, and no doubt will be
saved and put in commission should
retain their names as memento OF
the prowess of America"
When Lieut.. Hobson left the steamer
Beverly it was with the greatest diff

THE EPISCOPALS
Finishing Their Business Preparatory to a
Final Adjournment, Today.

Washington. Oct. 24.-The bishops
and deputies gave most of their time
today, to reconciling differences be-
tween them on the rivised constitution.
1t disclosed a strong purpose on the
part of the deputies to direct the at
fairs of their own house without the
control of the bishops. The question
came up on a conference report on
Article l which recommended that the
views of the bishops on what manner
of choosing members of house of dep
uties and on giving missionary depu
tiesthe right to vote be accepted. The
report was warmly opposed.
Mr.. Francis Linde Stetson of New
York, argued that this was a propo-
sition to surrender to the bishops the
constitutional direction of the house
of deputies. The Rev. DR.. McKim of
Washington, also argued that the dep
uties should control the organization
of their own house.
A portion of the conference commit
tees report on Article was recommit-
ted to it and portion non-concurred
in. The matter therefore will have to
be further considered in conference.
The House proceeded to the consider
alton of the special order viz: The
consideration of the revision of the
canons. There We're 53 in all of these
and the disposition of some of the del
egates was averse to entering upon a
discussion of the many important ques-
tions involved at this late stage of the
session. Notwithstanding an express
sion of opinion to this effect, the House
nrOrQp6ad with the
O'Clock, however, it became apparent
| in view of many amendments offered
that the matter could hardly be dispos-
ed of at this convention. and on motion
of Delegate Packard of Maryland, the
| further considerations of the canons
was indefinitely postponed.
The Deputies concurred in a resolu-
ton of the Bishops providing for 2
committee of bishops. clergymen and
laymen to consider the question of 4
permanent meeting place for the tri-
ennial conventions.
| Article of the revised constitution
was finally adopted as amended by the
Bishops. 1t relates to the formation
of new dioceses.
| A resolution offered by Rev Henry
w. Nelson. Jr.. of Western New York
was adopted. recognizing with pleasure
the presence of the President of the
United States at the ceremonies of the
unveiling of the cross at the site of the
proposed new Episcopal cathedral, yes
terday, and thanking him for the kind
| ly and generous words he uttered; arid
rendering thanks to God that through
the influence of the Christian faith the
old war cross. always sign of wal
and desolation, is being more and more
supplanted by Christ's blessed cross Of
peace.
Final agreement was reached today,
in both houses of the council on the ar
ticle for the conservation of bishops
for foreign lands over which there was
considerable difference, the matter be.
ing recast in such manner as to be ac-
ceptable to the Bishops.
