WANTS INTERVENTION.
Silvela Longs for European Congress
 to Take Hold

Paris. May 5.-The Echo publishes a report of an interview had by its correspondent in Madrid with Senor Silvela, the leader of the Spanish conservative, in which that statesman says:
 We are resolved to fight with te- nacity, but the Atlantic ocean is wide and Cuba is a far base of operations.
 eff the powers were wise and pru- dent they would understand how much 1t is to their own interest to inter vene. I only hope, in the interests Of all concerned and of humanity, that a European congress will shortly be summoned to discuss the question England has thought fit to side with the United States. It will not be long before she sees the immensity of her mistake"

CURED OF CONSUMPTION.

The effect of the pneumo-chemic treatment of tuberculosis is shown in the following interview with Charles McManus, a cigar manufacturer in the Commercial hotel block, this city. Said MT. McManus yesterday:
 After being a sufferer from lung trouble about four years, two months ago I commenced taking the pneumo- chemic treatment at the sanitarium in Phoenix. After two weeks treatment an examination of the sputum dis closed fifteen germs to the field Two weeks later an examination was made which disclosed only four germs to the field. In two weeks more, or six weeks in all, the germs had entirely disappeared from the sputum, and was pronounced cured. My health has improved so rapidly and with such indication of permanent cure under this treatment that I heartily recom- mend the same to all sufferers from tuberculosis, and any one desiring in- formation on the subject is invited to call at my place of business, No. 31 South Center street, Phoenix"

FINDING FAULT.
Spanish Minister of Marine Accused Of
 Lack of Energy.

Madrid, May 5.-In the chamber Of deputies today Senor Gasset, who is the manager of the Imparcial, at tackled Admiral Bermejo, minister of marine, declaring that notwithstand- ing his brilliant facilities, he showed a lack of the energy necessary in the present situation.
 Prime Minister Sagasta defended Admiral Bermejo, who, he said, was rendering great services to his coun- try. It would one day be seen that he had provided for everything. He deserved only praise.
 Admiral Bermejo repudiated the charge of lack of energy. A sense of patriotism, he said, compelled him to remain silent in regard to the steps taken for the national defense.

HAVE POOR FORTIFNATIONS.
Every Intelligent Report Conveys the
 Same Information.

Baltimore, May 5.-Charles Fox, former United States consul at San tiago de Cuba, arrived at his home in this city today. He came on the Brit ish steamship Cabral, which sailed on April g, the day war was declared with Spain. When the news was re- ceived that war had been declared, all the vessels in the harbor were notified to leave by p. m., and that any that remained after that time were liable to have their stores of provisions con- fiscated by the Spanish authorities.
 Speaking of the Notifications on the Cuban coast, he continued:
 T think they are very poor. There is something that they call fort at Santiago, but I do not think it would resist for many minutes during a bombardment. As for Moro castle, it is not all that is claimed for it. At one period of time many years ago it might have been a most formidable of war, withstand the fire of American gunboats. As far as the Cuban army is concerned it could hold it's own for years in the island. The insurgents control the entire inland country, and the Spanish soldiers can make no headway whatever. Around Santiago there are thousands of Cuban soldiers and they are in constant commun1ca- fiOn with their friends
 Nearly every non-combatant is a -sympathizer with the insurgents and secretly perform many services for them at great risks"

FINANCIAL VIEWS.
Speculation Affected by the Varying
 Pulse of War.

New York, May 4.-The second week of war has produced no material change in the aspect of affairs in Wall street The most notable fea- ture is the contraction or operations on the stock exchange. Investment transactions are almost suspended; i;
 the outside" element in speculation has virtually disappeared; and busi- ness is almost entirely confined to quick in-and-out operations; the re- suit being that dealings have con- tracted to about one-third of their nor nal volume. On the whole, prices have been steady to firm, the chief in f1uence causing fluctuations being the varying aspect of naval movements and of other indications as to the drift of hostilities. Evidently, until the struggle has ceased, we may expect the stock market to keep even pace with the fortunes of war, while ordinary influences will be held largely in abeyance. The news of Admiral Samp- sons successful reconnaissance in force off MatanZas, had stimulating g effect on the market as indicating the probability of an early landing in Cuba and showing the efficiency and good working condition of our fleet. Wall street is likely to serve as a good barometer of the prospects of war; and the fluctuations of mood that will at tend the varying fortunes of the strug- gle will afford good opportunities for brief speculative turns in the market,
