THE Gar of Russia has startled the
word, just as war between England
aud Russia was supposed to be immi-
nent, by proposing con ference of all
the powers to consider the question OF
the disarming of Europe and reaching
an agreement that will insure univer-
sal peace. The proposition is in the
shape of an official manifesto, issued
b. the Russian Minister of Foreign
Affairs in which the evils of the pres
ent European system are strikingly
portrayed and the horrors of the inev-
liable consequence deplored. The
proposition has aroused great interest
IN all the European capitals, and the
trend of the discussion in London and
Paris is favorable to the plan. Opin-
ion as to the outcome of the move is
divided. Such an agreement could
surely cause no harm, and would more
than likely result in much good.

. CRITICAL TIME
During the Battle of
Santiago.
SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.

The Packers at the Battle Of Santiago
de Cuba were all Heroes. Their
Heroic Effects in Getting Ammuni-
ton and Rations to the Front Saved
the day.
P. f. Butler, of pack-train No. g.
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, en-
July 23d, says: 1--WE all had diarrhCea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see doc,
tor, for it was a case OF ruse and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations.
but thanks to Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, l sincerely believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was the indirect saviour of our army,
for if the packers had been unable to
work there would have been no way
of getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in a sup
ply of this medicine for our pack-train
be ore we left Tampa, and l know in
four cases it absolutely saved life"

TO Cuba. As he stepped from the gangplank he
gave good.by to Mr.. Smith Of tho Ward line,
adding: II don't bolieve we will get thcrs."
Mr.. Smith remarked: Il think you'll get there
all right" Tho Aloedene has . cargo OF general
supplies and two military cars for the Spanish
Army In Cuba, but Uncle Sans warshlps will
see that those supplies don't get to the enemy.
The blockade of Cuban ports also settles the
fate of the cargoes OF the Spanish line boat
Panama and tho Ward liner Seneca, which left
here on Wednesday. President McKinlcy's
order will also hold up tho Spanish steamship
Panama. on which twenty-five Spanish refugees
left hero on Wednesday. The United States
has no particular grievance against these pas
sengers, but 1t will probably not expedite them
to Havana.
The futillty Of further attempts to fulAl con-
tracts for shipment OF war material into Cuba
was admitted by the Ward line officials yester-
day when they cancelled their charter Of the
Norwegian steamship Bergen. which was sched-
uled to sail on Monday.
I'VE found that the Bergen was not avail
able" was the way Secretary A. G. Smith Of the
company put 1t. but there 10 no doubt that It
was thought useless to begin loading the ship In

Of the company was not forced by any order Of
