Wonderful Medicine"

"While in Cape Town the past

pletely worn out; my blood seemed
to become as thin as water, and 1
lost all energy and interest in life.
My friends recommended Ayers

wonderful medicine restored my

though not to such an extent, and
he also was greatly benefited from

ASKED FOR HER SONS PARDON.
Mrs. Cannon, of Norfolk, Besought
the, Governor 90 Extend Ciemency.

Governor Tyler returned to the city yes
terday morning and spent the greater
part of the Gay in his office disposing OF
the mail that had accumulated during his
absence, and receiving callers, Of whom
there were many.
He was waited upon yesterday morn
ing by Mrs. Cannon, Of Norfolk, the
mother Of Joseph =. Cannon, the young
man who was convicted of completely in
an intrigue TO ruin his wifes character,
and who IS now a fugitive from justice.
Mrs. Cannon besought his Excellency to
grant pardon TO her son. and in support
of her plea presented letters from Judge
Hanckel, Of the Corporation Court, in
which the young man was convicted, and
the commemorative Attorney who pros
ecuted him. Both of these officers thought
the young man should be pardoned, and
Mrs Cannon, during her recital Of her
boys claims, wept cOpiOusly. The Gov
ernor was greatly impressed by the inter-
view. but does not think he has the right
under the Constitution to pardon con-
vcted criminal, who is a fugitive from
justice 1t is, therefore, not likely that
he will interfere in the case, though he
has not yet reached any determination.
The Governor removed the political dis
abilities Of Davis j. NOwlan, Of Patrick,
who was convicted Of hOuse-breakng. He
refused to remove the disabilities of Ma
than Roop, also convicted Of hCuse-break-
ing.

MINES TO DE REMOVED.
Important Action Taken Mt Yester-
days Cabinet Meeting.
(Washington Evenlng star-l2th.)

washington Evening Star-l2th.)
The Secretary of War to-day ordered
the removal of all the submarine mines
which now protect the harbors of the
United states against the entry Of hostile
ships. This action was decided upon at
to-day's Cabinet meeting.
For weeks past-in fact, almost since
the beginning Of the war-the War De-
partment has been deluged with protests
from the commercial interests of the
country against the continuance of these
mines, which operate to the great detri-
ment Of commerce.
In certain cases influences were brought
to bear that secured an abatement Of the
rules. and this only increased the dissat-
isfaction In localities where they were
rigidly applied. Practically it has been
impossible for shipping 10 enter or leave
any Of the harbOrs OF the United States
during the last two months between the
hours of sunset and sunrise. The decision
of the Cabinet to remove these mines now
is one of the most signal manifestations
Of the supreme confidence of the govern
ment of the exemption Of the United
States ports from attack at the hands of
any hostile power.
After thoroughly considering the sub
jet it has been decided by the engineers
that the safest and quickest means Of re-
moving the mines is by exploding them.
and orders TO do this have been prepared
for transmission 90 all of the United
States engineer officers i'm charge of the
harbor defences throughout the country.

ANTONIO, JAMAICA, July u.--At 3
o'clock on Sunday the army and the fleet
attacked Santiago, the spaniards having
refused the ultmatum Of unconditional
surrender which had been submitted TO
them.
The Texas, Brooklyn, and Indiana
shelled the city from a point off Aqua
dores, and the army opened with infantry
and artillery fire all along the line.
The Spaniards replied so feebly as TO
suggest that they already were eyacu-
ating the place and leaving but skeleton
force in the trenches
The shells OF the fleet did great damage
10 the city one shell from the dynamite
gun destroyed a battery.
Our forces did not advance, and ulti-
mately stopped firing on account of a
thunderstorm and darkness.
Eight hundred Cubans, advancing on
Aguadores, found the trenches deserted
and logs set up TO represent guns, which
adds confirmation to the opinion that the
Spaniards are retreating to Caimanes,
across the bay.
The fleets range Is 10000 yards. Our
casualties were very slight.

must have wandered to the dock down

bank he fell in. No one saw him or heard
his faint cries for help
Between and 8 o'clock yesterday

covered floating in the dock by the engi-
neer on board the three-masted schooner

ton to the body which was taken aboard
