upon it with plunging fire from sixteen guns. Many of the men and most of the horses were killed or wounded, and caissons and limbers blown up. The battery was so disabled inside of ten minutes that it became impossible to remove the guns. Suddenly the enemy charged with five regiments, which had been massed behind neighboring ridge, in front. Nothing inside the works could stop this onslaught, but his men stood by their guns till the enemy had planted it's cOlorS on the parapet. Not till then did Randolph order his men to fall back. Lieutenant Randolph was carried, wounded, into the town and fell into the hands of the Confed crates. For this brave defense he was breveted a captain.
 Major Randolph has served continu ously with his regiment since the war at posts along the Atlantic coast all the way from Florida to Maine. For sev- eral years past he has commanded the artillery battalion at Fort Riley, Kans.
 In consequence of the bill having passed Congress authorizing two addi- tional regiments of artillery for the army, the Secretary of War has issued orders directing the following named officers to report to Colonel Royal T. Frank, First Artillery, president of the examining board appointed to meet at Fort Monroe, Va, for examination as to their fitness for promotions:

A PECULIAR FACT.
Thousands of People Have Dyspepsia in Its
 Worst Form and Do Not Know It.

NOrSp fOrm ana DO NOT Know IT.
 A weak stomach is the cause of about nine-tenths of all disease, yet in most cases the wrong thing is treated and the true cause overlooked.
 This is because weak digestion pro- duceS symptoms resembling nearly every disease, because it weakens and disturbS the action of every nerve and organ in the body; poor digestion causes heart trouble, kidney troubles, lung weakness and especially nervous breakdown or nervous prostration; the nerves cannot stand the wear and tear unless generously fed by well digested, wholesome food.
 Keep the digestion good and no one need fear the approach of disease.
 Mrs. M. H. Lee of Rochester, N. Y, writes: For the sake of suffering hu- manity I want to say that from a child l had very weak stomach, threw up my food very often after eating, and after few years nervous dyspepsia resulted, and for more than twenty years I have suffered inexpressibly.
 l tried many physicians and adver- tised remedies, with only temporary re- lief for nervous dyspepsia, and not un- til l commenced taking Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets last September, six months ago, have I been free from suf- fering, caused by the condition of my nerves and stomach; in short, chronic nervous dyspepsia.
 l have recommended Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets to many of my friends, and now want in public way to say they are the safest, pleasantest and I believe surest cure for stomach and nerve troubles. I write my honest opinion. and I will gladly answer any letter of inquiry at any time and feel that I am, in my small way, helping on a good cause.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is not patent medicine, but they contain only the fruit salts, digestive acids and peptones necessary to help the weak stomach to promptly and thoroughly digest food.
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at 50 cents for full-sized pack age, and any one suffering from ner- vous dyspepsia, sour stomach, head aches, acidity, gases. belching, etc. will find them not only a quick relief but a radical cure

tions for those who are in need of work, and 1t is given out that large corps or canVassers are out hunting for places Tor those who become members.
 She only knows of one man being out looking for places for the applicants. When questioned as to the inside business Of is addicted to the habit of putting fake advertisements in the papers for help when the order books do not show that there are positions to fill. She said that Shepard, when business is dull, puts in more ads. in order to induce people to go to his place and put up their money for membership fees. When she went to the office three months ago there were about Seventy-fiye female applications on the order book, and when she left there were about 223. Since her time in the place about twenty-five women were given em- ployment. Mrs. Gillis said that she left the Clerks Exchange because she did not consider it an honest business. The order book of the concern was produced and comparisons made with the advertise ments in the daily papers, and the Com missioner said that the book does not show orders for the positions called for in the ads.
 E. A. Wright of 1169 Mission street gave his experience, which was similar to that of all the other witnesses, and added that Seeley once told him that the ads. in the papers were baits to induce better bus1- ness.
 Shepard. the proprietor, explained the methods of the business He said that he has the testimony or uozens of people who certify that he is conducting the of flee in legitimate manner He denied all the charges of dishonesty and said that his clerks are instructed to tell only the truth about chances of apph- cants getting positions. He said he has branch offices in San Jose, Los Angeles and Oakland and that the business is an association. Commissioner Fitzgerald stated that he was convinced Shepard had laid himself amenable to the law for ob- taining money by trick and device, and he would have Of those who had paid the man money swear out warrants for his arrest. In addition he will take steps to have Shepard's license revoked. The investigation will go on again to-day.

MASTERING OUT OF TROOPS.
Soldiers Entitled to Travel Paw to
the Place of EnIistment.

CHICAGO, Sept. 26-A DAILY News"
Washington special says:
+ Assistant Comptroller of the Treas
ury Mitchell has rendered an important
decision at the request of the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury that will facilitate
the mastering out of the volunteers and
the settling of their claims The AS
sistant Comptroller holds that soldiers
are entitled to travel pay from the
place of discharge to the place of en-
listment, and also if the soldier is dis
charged on furlough, except in cases
where the distance is greater than the
distance from where the soldier was
encamped to the point of enlistment. In
that case he is entitled gto travel pay
only from the point where his regi-
ment was stationed to the place of en-
listment
Another matter settled by the decis-
ion is that officers and soldiers dis
charged at their own request are not
entitled to travel pay, but where an
officer or soldier resigns or is dis
charged on account of sickness or
wounds, then he is entitled to travel al
lowance, and such discharge or resig-
nation is not regarded as having been
made for the convenience of the SOL
der. 1t is also held that discharge or
resignation takes place only from the
date on which the officer or soldier re-
ceives notice that it has been accepted.
When an officer or soldier is discharged
he is entitled to travel allowance and
not mileage, and officers on waiting
orders are entitled to full pay

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
A Decision of Great Importance to
General Creditors.

MILWAUKEE, CWis.), Sept. 26.-
Special Master in Chancery Cary mas
filed a decision in the United States
Court of great Importance to the gen.
eral creditors of the Northern Pacific
Railway Company. Cary finds that
there is due the company, although 1t
has succeeded in acquiring the entire
property of the Northern Pacific, the
enormous sum of $S6, 292, ,6S1.73, with
interest from September 1st. This
may be added to a further sum, which
will become due January l, 19O2,
amounting to $499,7 1T.
The only tangible assets of the North
ern Pacific Company that remain are
the lands east of the Missouri River in
North Dakota and Minnesota. There
are nearly four million acres, but there
is a great deal of litigation to be set
tied first with reference to taxes that
have not been paid and the holders OF
tax certificates to settle with Ihese
lands are in the possession of Receiv-
ers Bigelow and McHenry and are val
ued at not more than S1S,000,OO0.
The decision, if upheld, will give the
company about so per cent. OF the
proceeds from the sale of the lands,
with 10 per cent. to the other general
creditors
The claim which the Master allows is
founded upon the deficiency between
the amount received upon the bonds
from the proceeds of the sale OF the
road. The railroad was bid in by the
Northern Pacific Railway Company for
the nominal sum of SO, ,500,0 900, many
times less than the property is actually
worth

Cathedral at Havana.

HAVANA, Sept 26-At 10 o'clock
this morning the official exhumation of
the remains of Columbus took place in
the presence of General Blanco, Secre-
tary Gown, the Civil Governor, the
other authorities. The general public
was ordered out of the Cathedral at s
o'clock and no one was allowed inside
after that hour. The entrance to the
Cathedral was guarded by a force of
Orden Publco Guards, which kept back
the crowds which assembled in front of
the edifice.
1 p. m-The remains of Christopher
Columbus, which, this morning We're
removed from their niche in the Cathe-
dral preparatory to their shipment to
place since January 10, 1896, when
they were brought from Santo Domin-
go, that island having been ceded TO
France by Spain. Since the date men
toned the remains have laid in an open
niche in the wall of the presbytery of
the Cathedral a yard and half above
the ground, between pillar supporV
ing the main arch and the choir. In
1892 there was placed in front of the
niche a slab of doubtful artistic taste,
representing in relief a bust of the
great Admiral, and bearing this In
scription in Spanish:
May the remains and image of the
great Columbus lie thousand centuries
preserved in this urn and in the re-
membrance of our nation"

The Judge Advocate. Captain c. H.
Laucheimer read the charges and
specifications prepared by the prosecu-
ton. They included alleged extracts
from the lecture, in which the Chap
lain is made to say Admiral Sampson
reported himself within four miles of
the Spanish ship Cristobal Colon when
she struck her colors, in order that he
might participate in the prize money,
though he had nothing to do with the
battle He was also alleged to have
said that when the Oregon went into
the fight it met the Iowa, commanded
by Fighting Bob Evans, going to the
rear, where he stayed till the battle
was over. He was also charged with
saying that the oregon was the only
battleship that was; honestly built.
Earl Cranston of Denver, as attorney
for the prisoner, moved that the
charges be quashed, upon the ground
that the remarks were not OF scandal
Gus character, and only such as were
used frequently in the public press and
by the people generally. He held that
the statements charged could not have
affected the discipline of the navy. He
also urged there was no denial or the
alleged statements, no charge of mali
cious intent, and that the charges OF
fraud in the building of vessels was
against the contractors, and not against
the Navy Department.
Judge Advocate Lauhemeir replied
briefly, and the court denied the mo-
ton to quash.
The prisoner then entered a plea Of
not guilty. and the court adjourned un-

A Great Deal Of Sickness, but No
Want Of Food.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The fol-
lowing cablegram has been received at

"Adjutant General, Washington:
Gable regarding sickness and want of
rations received. That there are sick is
fact; a small proportion are bad
cases, but there has been no want of
food. The last report gives total Of
sick, 2,509. Four hundred typhoid and
49S malarial fever, 697 diarrhea, other
diseases ,314. Percentage %. Think
return of regiments now here would not
be advisable, as others coming would
have to go through the same acciimat-
ing process. Would advise that certain
sick be sent home whose recovery
would doubtless be qufckened. If regi-
ments are sent to take the place of
those now here, special attention should
be given to selecting those under good
discipline and having full quota of Off
GERS. By this means men may be con-
trolled and sanitary precautions en-
forced in the small detachments which

fend within the limits of that status the
absolute independence of the island of
Cuba; to foster and encourage all move
ments which may have for their pur-
pose the re-establishment of friendly
relations between Cubans and Span

ITO recommend to all Autonomists
the cordial Endorsement of our plat
form and that they should take an ac-
tive part in the politics of the island,
but without attempting or pretending
to exercise a controlling influence or
power in the management of political
affairs, which, logically and justly, be-
long to those who have always been
the consistent supporters of independ-
ence, but also promising that we Will

THE MARIA THERESA.
Navy Department Informed of the
Raising of the Warship.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26. - Acting
Secretary Allen has received a cable
gram from Captain Goodrich of the
Newark, the senior officer of the station
at Guantanamo, confirming the press
reports of the raising of the Spanish
flagship Maria Theresa last Saturday.
The work of wrecking this ship was
directly in charge of Constructor Hob
son.
Now that the Theresa has been raised.
he has been instructed to resume work
on the Colon, and begin operations to-
ward wrecking the Mercedes which
lies within the mouth of Santiago har-
Dor, close to the Merrimac, in smooth
water, and we'll situated for success
full wrecking.
The Theresa will be brought north
probably to Norfolk, as soon as she is
in condition to undertake the voyage.
The wreckers who have so far sue
cessfully accomplished their work have
earned large sum of money under the
salvage laws, the exact amount of
which will probably be determined by
an admiralty court.
1t is the present purpose of the de-
partment to place the Theresa in COM
mission as United States naval YES
sci, and, following the English custom,
her name is likely to remain unchang-
ed, to carry in the future the glory of
the American victory.
