SANTIAGO'S IRON.
An Important Industry Will Now
Be Started Up.

New York. July 19.-Santiago de
Cuba under the American flag means
the immediate resumption and large in
crease in the future of the iron and
steel trade with that section of the
island. says the Baltimore correspond
ent of the Tribune. the stock of the
Juragua and the Poncepo Mining COM
panies is largely held in Baltimore.
Most of the Bessemer ore which is min
ed at Santiago has been taken to this
city. Until the supply was shut off
the works of the Maryland Steel COM
pany required the Cuban ores, because
of their value in making steel, and of
their cheapness.
While the mines were in operation
three to four cargoes of ore came to
Baltimore each week. and the monthly
importations ran from 10000 to 10000
tons. While most of this was consum-
ed at the works of the Maryland Steel
company. some of it was sent to Pitts
burg and used at the Carnegie steel
works. As a return cargo, the vessels
bringing the ore carried out bacon,
lard, flour and coal, and on account of
the frequent trips formerly made, the
business has been suspended since the
war stopped all commercial relations
with Santiago.

DRIVING OUT SPANISH MONEY
AMERICAN COIN FOR THE
AMERICAN TROOPS.
Paymaster Stanton's Plan to Drive
Out the Deprecated Silver In Cir
culation Approved By Mckinley.

Chicago, July ia special to the
Tribune from washington says: The
auxiliary cruiser Resolute will sail
from New York with $75oOOO on board
to pay the American troops at Santi-
ago. This is the amount due General
Shelters army for June.
Major I. Sniffin is to have charge of
the payment. All the money taken is
to be in coin. The coin ranges in de-
nomination from s. in gold to copper
pennies.
"The taking of the Santiago army's
pay all in coin," said Major FNishback
one of Major Sniffin's assistants, lis
an idea of Paymaster General Stanton.
The purpose is to introduce the Ameri-
can money General Stanton was of
the impression that it would be an
excellent idea to drive out the Spanish
deprecated currency at the same time
that the Spanish soldiers are driven
out.
with a stable currency on the
island, the plan to establish a stable
government would be greatly facili
tated. The time to begin, he contend
of his argument was appreciated by
the administration and he was given
his way.
THE scheme is to put out of circu-
latiOn altogether in Santiago province
the Spanish money, both coin and
paper. BY the Introduction of Ameri-
can coin into Santiago province Cen
eral Stanton believes that our money
can at once be made the standard
value.
In order to effectively carry out this
plan. each soldier will be instructed as
he is paid, to buy from no tradesman
in Santiago who cannot give him his
change in American money. The diff
ference in the money value of the
money of his own country and the
money of Spain will be explained to
him and he will be asked to accept
nothing but American money.
THE pay officers of the government
will pursue this plan of General Stan
toms wherever the American arms are
successful on this side of the ocean,

Blackfoot, Ida, July 19.-The political
atmosphere in Idaho has cleared some
what since the action of the Populist
state central committee at Boise a few
days ago in changing the time and
place of holding their state convention
from Moscow to Boise City on the some
date that the Democratic and silver
Republican convention is to be held,
Aug. "a The outlook now is that q
harmonious fusion will be had between
all the silver forces, unless the Interior
ence of some of the partisan employees
of the present administration illustrates
it. The activity of the medical super
intendent of the asylum for the insane
is causing uneaSinesS among the advo-
Gates of a silver union for fear that a
similar activity on the part of other
appointees of the administration Will
lead TO distrust that cannot be over

Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell Thompson run the
historic Cuyler House at Plymouth, Ill. a hos
telry where Abraham Lincoln often slept,
where Dick" Yates, Lyman Trumbell and
Richard Oglesby bought refreshments for the
inner man in ante-bellum days, and from the
veranda of which Stephen A. Douglas de-
ivered one of his great speeches.
This article has not so much to do, how
ever, with this historic hotel, as it has with
the landlords thirteen-year-old laughing,
bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked daughter Ollie.
As one sees her to-day, the picture of per-
feet health, it is hard to believe that nearly
nine of the thirteen years of her life were spent
on the bed of invalidism, that for months she
never walked, and for years suffered the pain
misery and distress of infammatory rheuma-
tism in its worst form.
Able physicians were employed but no
permanent benefit resulted.
Mrs. Thompson heard of wonderful cure
which had been effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and was influ-
enced by it to purchase some OF the pills for
her daughter.
Before she had taken half box, there was
marked improvement in her condition; when
she had taken two boxes she was completely
restored to health. To-day there is not a
healthier child than Ollie Thompson.

cure from Mrs. Thompson's own lips. She

Ollie was hearty, well-developed child

three years old. In 1887 she was taken down
with infammatory rheumatism. For nine

"Dr. Grigran, of Augusta, was the first
doctor who had her case. He doctored her
through two serious times of the disease, and
finally told us he could not cure her. We
doctored her most all the time, but when she
was ten years old she had an unusually severe
attack, and we called in DIR. Kreider, of Prai.

tried hard to cure her but finally gave it up.

w. c. T. u.

The regular meeting of the w. G..
T. U. was held at the home of Mrs.
Chadderdon last Thursday, Jan. 9th,
and proved to be most pleasant and
profitable for those present. A short
business session was first held, presid-
ed over by Mrs. Brooke, president, af-
ter which Mrs. Virgins, recently from
Rockville, Maine, was requested to tell
the ladies something of the work in
her State. She began her remarks by
saying, 81 suppose because you think
because my home is in Maine we haye
no need of temperance work there, but
such is not the case, it takes great Wig
lance to keep out the blild pigs"
She described several different devices
used for concealing liquors. She said
the prohibitory law was thoroughly
enforced in the small towns but in the
cities it was far more difficult, yet she
assured her hearers that the state of
things was far more preferable to the
non-prohibitory States.
Mrs. Wiggin also visited the Tenn
perance Temple in Chicago recently,
and attended the noontide hour Of
prayer which is held there every day,
a vast number of people of all classes
attending, and the good accomplished
can be estimated by none save the all
seeing eye of God. These services are
conducted by the w. G. T. U. of Chi
cago.
The hour having arrived for the

the service by reading the Crusade

ON TRAIN NEAR 1AALLlOfELLs
Montana, Jan. 22.-To THE EDITOR:
We left St. Paul at 4:3O Thursday
and yesterday morning were forty
miles west of Devils Lake. The day
was spent wholly in making the run
through the great stock ranches OF
North Dakota and Montana.
Thus far there has not been any
snow of account on the range and the
cattle are so scattered over the prairies
feeding the same as they would in
summer. The stockmen are having a
good winter. No snow, mild weather
and the prospect of high prices again
next season.
This Friday morning our train,
seemingly thing of life, is winding
out and in along the left bank of the
Columbia river near Kallispell, Mon
tana. 1 was glad to find our sleeper
not crowded and, more than that, the
passengers we're genial and compan-
ionable.
Our colored porter is an artist in his
line and good-natured and friendly
with all. In reply to my question as
to the destination of the passengers in
his car he said "A goin' to Seattle, ev-
cry last Injun Nv um."
Have not yet reached the Rockies
proper where we go over the Cascades
which we cross tonight. The snow is
reported eight feet deep.
The doctors say "One never comes
down with fever without first having
certain premonitory symptoms" If
this rule holds outside of the ills treat
ed by the medicinal fraternity con-
clude that there is or is to be fever
of another sort on somewhere. At the
least every other man sometime
through the day is studying map OF
the Alaska gold regions and everyone
can be seen with a folder sticking out
of his pocket with Alaska, Klondike
or all about the gold regions on in
prominent type. One man aboard has
brother and five companions at the
head of Lake Bennett, to whom he is
going. Another, from New York, is
on his way to Skaguay, to be ready
for the first chance to go on to Daw-
son City. And again, another goes to
the Copper River district. He is an
old miner and to my mind is more
sure of his ground than the others
We are due in Seattle at 1870 o clock
tomorrow morning and hope to be
able to send you something regarding
the Klondike and how to get there in
time for your next issue.
