THE SUEZ CANAL.

Many inquiries are received at this office as to the Suez canal and its use in time of war. By the convention adopted in 1888, the canal is declared neutral and free passage of ships ot all nations in time of peace or war is guaranteed No blockade ot the canal is permitted and no act of war can be committed within three miles of its ports of entry. It is possible, there fore, that Spanish fleet might take that short cut for the Philippines and make trouble for Dewey. But they could not go through the canal with out being reported, and, while we could not catch them with more ships, we could give Dewey plenty of warn ing and they could not surprise him. If they should leave Spain unprotected, Sampson could go over and capture that country before they could reach the Philippines.
 But that would be too much. We don't want Spain The line must be drawn somewhere. We may become great power in the East Indies and in the West Indies, but we do not want to become also Europsan power. This earth is ncne too big, and there must be some of it left for other peo- n1a

became communicative after the trans action, and gave him an insight, for his own guidance, into the prevailing corruption among Spanish officials. He supplied him with names and facts as to one matter which has been vaguely asserted in newspaper dispatches. He stated that one particular regiment, naming it, which was one of the earli- est sent out from Spain, had been so depleted by disease and casualties that it had practically disappeared from the face of the earth, the few surviv- ors having been mustered Into other regiments Yet that regiment, he said, remained on the pay rolls of the Spanish army, and it's colonel every month drew through his bank the amount necessary to pay the officers and men, and presumably divided his stealings with the captain general, who approved the muster roll. He further made to this Cincinnati finan- cier the astounding statement that Weyler went away with drafts on the Bank of Spain for $S,00O,0o0 Spanish gold. How much of this was his own or how much was "rake-off" for the benefit of the ministry which permit ted him thus to plunder the state the Havana banker of course could not know.
 Here you have in a nutshell the key to the entire situation. Official cor ruption in high places. That is what caused the fleet in Manila harbor to be so wretchedly prepared for defense The liberal appropriations made by the cortes for ccal and munitions of war have most of them been stolen in transit; the troops in Havana, as else where, but more especially in Havana, are months in arrears with their pay, and Spanish credit is exhausted, so that none of their naval vessels can buy coal or supplies.
 Instead of fighting in the open, Spain continues to attempt to destroy by treachery. If there had heretofore been question in the mind Cf any fair minded man as to the means resorted to to destroy the Maine that doubt would be removed by the revolting de- tails now being brought to light of attempts to destroy the ships and ether war resources of the United States by diabolical conspiracies, set on foot by Spanish agencies and at tempted by Spanish emissaries. The improved and disputed assertions of efforts to introduce yellow fever and small pox into the Union armies from Montreal during our civil war are cast into the shade by the fully sub stantiated disclosures of attempted Spanish villainy from the same base of operations. Some of the details will shortly be mare public. At pres ent they are kept secret for obvious reasons

No state or territory ever enjoyed greater credit in the financial circles of the country than Arizona does to- day The latest evidence Of this fact is the avidiry with which the capitol bonds have been taken. They were sold yesterday at very satisfac- tory figure. This is not only ben eficial to the people, but compliment ary to the governor and to the gentle men composing the commission.

THEIR SHELLS ARE "OFF." :"

One story from Hong Kong is to the effect that a number of shells from Spanish guns at Manila struck cur ships, one at least pass ing through the Baltimore, but that they did not explode at the right time The reports of the firing from the Cuban forts also relate that the American vessels, though subjected to danger from shrapnel, escaped in jury because the projectiles burst be- fore striking them. If these state ments are true it must be that the Spanish are very poorly off for perfect ammunition for their ordnance. A time fuse of the right kind explodes a shrapnel just as it reaches the tar get-not before touching. Percussion shells burst at the same time from the force of the impact. While a man may be killed here and there, or a piece of the ships upper works smashed, by a non-exploding shell or by solid shot, the real harm which can be done by such projectiles need amount to but little, unless the rain of steel is so heavy that it sweeps the deck. It would be remarkable if the Spanish either in Cuba or in the Phil ippines should have just the proper sort of modern shells, and it is evident that they, were without them at Manila bay. They do not yet know what real war means

SPANISH THIEVES.
Their Own Government Is Not Sacred
 From Inborn Tendencies.

Washington, D. C., May 12.-(Spec- ial correspondence of The Republi- can.)-General Lee spoke hard, solid truth, questioned by the senate com mittee as to what would become of the six hundred thousand pesetas appro- relief of the recontrados, when he answered, Every cent of it will be stolen in transit; none will get to the reconcentrados. I had a conversa- tion recently with a prominent citi- zen of Cincinnati, banker and a man Of wealth. This gentleman had been to Havana on his own responsibility just before the outbreak of the war. Having considerable knowledge of Spanish affairs he conceived the idea, Ga very sensible one) that Havana city bonds, issued for local improve ments, such as the construction of gas works, etc, being practically a mortgage on the property of the city, and not mixed up in political compli- cation, would be a first class invest ment anyway. He reasoned that what ever happened to Havana could not | destroy the port and the harbor, and that the city must necessarily improve when a better government was given it, and it's resources were permitted to develop without the incubus of Span ish commercial oppression. So he i took with him half a million dollars
 in gold drafts and went to Havana
 fortified by letters from prominent fnanciers here and in Europe to all ! the leading bankers in Havana.
 He came away satisfied with his in
 vestment and left his half million in 1 the vaults of one of the banks as a deposit to secure an option on certain designated city bonds, taking all prop CT precautions against the deposit be- ing forfeited as an act of war. The banker with whom he did business

 beautiful castles to be built by the loving hands of mutual helpfulness and filled with healthy, happy children.
 Almost without exception these dreams might become realities if mothers would only teach their daughters the most com mon sense facts about their own physical makeup, and advise them how to protect themselves from the perils of the three critical periods of their Eves-puberty or maturity, motherhood and the turn of life" Women at these times suffer from irregularities and weaknesses which, if neglected, will develop into dangerous dis eases and make their whole lives wretched.
 The delicate organs that make wifehood and motherhood possible, cannot be neg lected with iinpunity. If they are neglect ed the result is unhappy wifehood, and motherhood will be a menace of death. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is an un- failing specific for all diseases of these organs. It restores them to perfect health.
