When man owns blooded horse he
is always careful of its health. He looks
after its diet and is particular that the
feeding shall be regular and right.
While he is doing this it is likely as not
that he is himself suffering from some
disease or disorder. When the trouble
gets so bad thathe cannot work, he will
begin to give himself the care he gave
the horse at the start. Good pure, rich,
red blood is the best insurance against
disease of any kind. Almost all diseases
come from impure or impoverished
blood. Keep the blood pure and strong

FRENCHMEN ANGRY.

LONDON, May THE Paris
correspondent of the Daily Tele-
graph says: "The effect upon
Paris of the seizure of the steamer
Lafayette is clear enough. AL
ready a rather bitter feeling
against the United States existed,
and this incident will certainly not
tend to diminish it. If it is demon
strated eventually that there was
nothing to justify the seizure, the
government may be expected to
make the very strongest protest.
Some angry expressions are to be
heard, and arrangements have
been made with the prefect of po-
lice for efficient protection of the
United States embassy. The place
is well guarded by policemen and
detectives in view of any possible
hostile demonstrations"

Reads Like a yellow Fake.

NEW YORK, May GA dispatch to the
Journal from Montreal says: "A special to
La Presse, from Madrid, states that Com
modore Deweys squadron could only get an
entrance into Manila bay by first severing
the wires connecting the submarine torpedo
system with the forts. This having been
done, Dewey had no difficulty whatever in
doing what he did, that is to sail into the
bay as on the high seas. The special then
goes on, saying that Dewey engaged the
Spanish squadron, with the result as told.
But it appears that during the fight the
Spanish authorities set to work reconstruct
ing the wires under the fire of the American
war ships. The severed wires were patched
SO quickly that before the fight was over
no ships could move any more in the bay
without the greatest danger of being blown
up. Now, says the special to La Presse, this
startling piece of news reached Madrid in
the form of a cipher dispatch from Hong
Kong, where 1t was discreetly circulated
among the leaders Of the Spanish groups.
The posting of this news throughout the
city created the most intense feeling among
both French and English. who fully sympa-
thize with the United States The dispatch
seemed to be the only explanation of that

LAST NIGHTS sURMIsEs.

Nothing Known About Dewey or
Sampson Yesterday Evening.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-The two absorb
ing questions in Washington to-day and to-
night relate to the unknown, and therefore
all that is said about them savors more or
less of speculation. Nothing is thought of
or discussed excepting, first, the Dewey re-
port OF the battle of Manila and the pro-
ceedings in that locality subsequent to the
fight. and, second, the whereabouts of the
Spanish fleet that sailed from St. Vincent
last Saturday. and also the whereabouts
and plans of Admiral Sampson with his
disappeared squadron Of American fighting
ships. The general public is very MUCH
more distressed over the delay in hearing
from Commodore Dewey than the officials
of the Navy Department. The latter give
ready and satisfactory explanation for the
failure of the hero of the Philippines to
forward his report, and they have success
fully communicated their confidence to the
President They theorlze that it will take
four or five days for Manila to go through
the forms of capitulation and for the COM
modore to take possession, place his ships in
safe position, take account of dead and
wounded and of damage to his ships, and to
put the recital in proper official FORM Then
two more days would be required to trans
NIT the dispatches from Manila to Hong
Kong. They give further comfort in the
fact that not only has no news been re-
ceived from Dewey. but that nothing has
been heard from any one else in that city,
a circumstance which convinces them that
the American commodore is in absolute
the departure of any craft from the har-
Dor. He evidently wants no accounts to go
until he is ready with his own version of
the tremendous affair and its immediate
consequences. 1t is known that representa-
tives of three of the greatest money-spend-
ing newspapers in the United States are at
Manila, and the fact that they have not
been heard from would tend to support the
theory that Dewey has everybody and ev-
erything in the vicinity of Manila bottled
up'-either that or the other fellows have
him bottled up" In either event the world
will soon have advices as to the Philippine
situation.
AS for Sampson and his fighting ma
chimes. no one in America outside of the
President secretary of the navy and MEM
bers of the Board of Strategy know where
they are or precisely what errand they are
on. Opinion differs as to whether they are
going to Porto Rico. in the expectation of
meeting the Spanish squadron there. or
whether they are off to meet the oregon
and give her safe escort to Cuban waters.
Two or three days will probably shed light
on that mystery. as well as upon that en-
shrouding the Dewey report

In reply to a question whether measures

sary, would prevent the expectation Of
coal. In the Cortes, Senior Capdepon, mir
lister of the interior, asked the deputies TO
suspend judgment as TO the Manila en-
gagement until detailed reports had been
received.

enthusiastic cheering, insisted that the

Dispatches from Madrid and other cities
of Spain report continuation of the riots
which have been in progress in the prov
inces all week. AT Murcia, thirty miles from
Carthagena, mob, composed mainly of
striking miners, has cut the telegraph lines,
set fire to the town hall and to the law
couTts, burning the archlVeS. The, rioters
also made an attack on the local jail, beat
in the doors and released the prisoners. The
rioters have also interrupted railroad COM
munication with Murcia and destroyed a
store by means of dynamite, distributing
the provisions which it contained. The sit
uation is regarded as being very serious.
Quite recently six thousand striking miners
of Murcia attempted to march upon Car

doing by a strong force of troops.
