we don't like, agree with us. Dys-

Nature does the best she can, and If
man will only help her little bit

be likes and as much as he likes.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are for
people who are troubled with indi-
gestion. Particularly for those in
whom it manifests itself in the form
Of constipation. The "Pelle,sr are
quick and easy in their action.
They are in perfect harmony with
Nature. They effect permanent
cure. You need take them regular
ly only a little while. After that,
use them occasionally when you
need them-when you have eaten
anything that disagrees with you.
They may be taken just as freely as
you would take water or any other
necessity of life. Once used they
are always in favor.

DeNxeY Reinforced.

Washington, July 22.-Secretary Long
announced yesterday that he had receiv-
ed dispatch from Admiral Dewey an
nouncing the arrival OF another detach.
ment of troops at Manila, constituting the
second expedition from San Francisco.
Shortly afterward the navy department
posted the following:
Cayite, July II, via Hong Kong, July
2l.-Situation unchanged. Second de-
| tachment of the army arrived today. All
well on board. Health of the squadron
continues good. No sickness whatever.
(Siged.l DEWEY.
Hong Kong, July 2l.-The German
steamer Wustan from Cavite reports that
the United States transport China with
American reinforcements for Admiral
Dewey arrived at Cavite Saturday last
and the other transports arrived Sunday.
The Wustan also brought news that no
advance had been made by the American
forces. They are awaiting the coming OF
General Merritt, who is expected to
reach the place within 10 days. The in
surgents still invest the town.
The news. of the destruction of Admiral
Cervera's feet was received at Manila
July IL and created CONSERVATION among
the Spaniards.

New York, July pa special to the
Times from Washington says:
A member Of the cabinet, speaking
about the unfortunate attitude Of the
Cubans at Santiago, said he feared that
it would take time TO correct the misap-
prehension Of the Cuban insurgents that
the United States proposed to erect a
military government wherever the United
States forces oyercame the Spaniards.
II the Cubans persist in bringing on a
contest with the United States In the de.
termination to admit no participation hy
Spaniards in the government of the isl
and, and a condition Of rebellion against
the United States is maintained, it is
not considered improbable that the isl.
and will continued to be disturbed for
years by revolution. And member OF
the administration asked what would be
the answer of the United States to the
powers if at the end of two years of STRIFE
between the United States and Cuba the
powers should step in and assert that
they could no longer suffer the interrlip-
tion of business, the destruction of life
and the destruction Of their peaceg
While less trouble is looked for in Pu
erto Rico, il is conceived TO be possible
that the native Puerto Ricans, who share
the Cuban aversion for Spaniards, may
develop like hostility to the forces and
rule Of the United States that seems to
be developing in Cuba.

Mining Briefs.
No Britons mt the Guns.

Washington, July 23.-The United
States government is preparing TO add to
the gayety of nations when it is called
on to answer the inquiry of the British
government as to the truth of the state
ment made by Cunningham Graham, a
former member of parliament of eccen-
tric reputation, that the gunners Of Dew
ey's ships in the battle of Manila bay
were British seamen bribed to leave her
majesty's service. Mr.. Gn,ham claimed
that each of the gunners was offered
fl00 a month for his services, and that
through their presence on the American
warships Dewey's victory was made pos
sible
Nobody here believed that the British
government would pay any attention To
Mr.. Graham's demand for an investigi-
ton, but since London press dispatches
say that the inquiry will be made the
navy department has prepared a state
ment on the subject.
! The statement completed today from
the muster rolls Of Dewey's squadron
covering the date Of. the engagement with
the Spanish efet shows that of the l445
men on the American warships only G7
were aliens, and of these only eight were
British subjects. Four of the Britishers
were on the Olympia, and four on the
Raleigh. Not one of the eight is a
gunner. They were ordinary seamen, a
carpenters mate, a. coal passer and a
water tender. Thirty-one of the 81 aliens
were Chinese mess attendants and cooks
These 81 are the men in whose behalf Ad-
miral Dewey has recommended special
provision Of law to enable them to be-
come American citizens. 9f-ee%S

London, July 23.-The Hong Kong cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says:
The latest mail from Manila reports
that the rebels have lately suffered sew
eral repulses. General Aguinaldo has is-
sued an absurd proclamation dealing
chiefly with official insignia. He as pres
ident OF the Philippines is to wear gold
collar with triangular pendant, engrav'
ed with the sun and three stars and IA
carry gold whistle, as well as a stick
with a gold handle and a tassel of gold
The badges of innumerable other officers
are minutely dealt with in the proclama-
ton.

Freight Rates Restored.

Chicago, ILL.,, July 25.-In accordance
with the recent decision Of the officials
of western roads, freight rates are to
day restored to the basis in effect bcfoit
the recent disastrous cutting was begun
The agreement covers live stock, pro
vision, grain and all other rates, and il
the agreement is adhered to the advance
of 10 per cent will be rigidly maintained
The restoration means many hundreds
of thousands OF dollars in increased earn
ings to the railroads. 1t is estimated that
since the cutting began they have lost
about s2,O0O,0O0. The restoration is part
OF the new combination scheme OF the
western trunk line committee.

HOBSoN IN WASHINGTON.
He Thinks the Colon and Two Others
Can he Saved.

Washington, July 22.-By far the most
pleasant feature of yesterday was the
arrival at the navy department of the
hero of the Merrimac. Secretary Long
came out of his private office and grasp
ing Hobson with both hands, said with
sincerity: Lieutenant, ! am glad, very
glad, to see you."
Then he drew him into his office, where
the lieutenant was introduced to Assist
ant Secretary Allen, and was greeted by
Captain Crowninshield, Captain Bradford
and Pension Commissioner Evans, who
happened to drop in. He spent half an
hour in conference with the secretary and
then returned to the club for rest.
Secretary Long stated that Hobson did
not bring the long expected report from
Admiral Sampson and his brother Otli'
GERS on the destruction of the Cerveia
fleet.
The exact purpose of Hobson's visit
was explained by the following order,
under which Lieutenant Hobson had

THE Invasion Of SPAIN
MORE TALK-MORE WAITING
Claim That the War viii lie Pushed
without Pity Intii spain shall
Bcg for Peace-NO Official Infor-
nation Given Out.

Washington. d. c., July 25.-Commo-
dorc Wat>ons eastern squadron will get
away this week, and the navy department
is rushing the work OF. getting every
thing ready for this cruise, of which II
little official information has been made
public, and regarding which there has
been so much speculation.
The one thing definite and official i,
that the squadron will 90 to Spain. 1t
is the intention Of the administration to
compel Spain to either fight or Sue for
peace. She has done neither so far. She
declared war, and then sat down to de
fend her possessions.
Commodore Watson's squadron will be
the most significant effort OF this Kind,
and if Spain doesn't do something to show
that she is engaged in war with the
United States there will be an army of
invasion for Spain. The war will be
pushed relentlessly until Spain is ready
to ask for peace and ask il openly.
The Spanish fleet at Manila took refuge
under the guns at Cavite and fought from
that vantage ground, when attacked, un-
til all the vessels were destroyed. Admir-.
al Ccrvera crossed the Atlantic, ostensi.
bly, to fight, and then slipped into San
tiago haibor to hide. lie did not show
fight until he was compelled to leave the
harbor or be captured by our army, ahd
the made Il dashs for liberty, fighting as
he ran. His ships were destroyed running
away.
Always Refused to Fight
General Toral defended Santiago, but
retrcated as he fought. When he had
to fight OF surrender the city he sur
rendered. 1t is regarded aI'very probable
that San Juan will surrender rather than
make a stubborn fight, and the Canarie'
will be taken in the same way.
Spain has not yet made a move into
the open to have a batt]cd Neither will
she size for peace, and the war will be
pushed to the Spanish coast to make the
Spanish people realize that her so-called
defensive warfare will make no change in
the attitude of the nited States.
The war will be carried far enough i'll
TO Spain to let her people understand
that peace is the only way to save even
the home country. by the time CommO-
dorc Watson appears off the Spanish
coast the United States army will have
possession of Puerto Rico.
There is reason to believe that Wat
sons departure will be delayed until al
ter the navy's part in the Puerto Rican
operations has been concluded. Nearly
