SITUATION AT MADRID.
MORE CRITICAL THAN SINCE
THE WAR BEGUN.
Severity Of the Spanish Censorship
Prevents the True State of
Affairs Being Known.

NEW YORK, July PA dispatch to
the Tribune from Paris says:
The cast-iron severity of the Spanish
censorship prevents the exact situation
at Madrid from being disclosed except
through private channels. Any news
paper correspondent at Madrid sus-
pected Of even limiting at the true state
OF affairs now known to prevail there
would be imprisoned or expelled In
der these circumstances grave i'm
portance attaches to a Madrid letter of
Saturdays date received here to-day
by a French d;plomatist well known On
both sides Of the Atlantic The Amer
lean correspondent is unfortunately not
at liberty to mention the name of the
writer of the letter, whose oppcrtuni-
ties for ascertaining the truth at Ma
dr1d are unsurpassed, but is authorized
to cable the summary of the contents:
Madrid, Saturday, 23.-The situation
is far more critical than at any pre-
vlous time since the war began On
the surface the nabitual Indifference
OF all classes of the people to the ma
tiOnal disaster seems to continue So
ciai entertainments, popular amuse-
ments ard bull-fghts GO on as merrily
as ever, but this apparent apathy is
dent may at any moment precipitate a
crisis and plunge the country into rev.
olution.
THE news which reached here Thurs
day of the postponement of the de-
parture of Watson's squadron is re-
garded as definite abandonment Of
that expedition, and causes an immense
relief to the Spanish Cabinet The work
of defending the seaports, nevertheless,
actively continues, and two transports
with troops and heavy guns arrived
yesterday at the Canaries.
"Sagasta is now powerless either 20
carry on the war effectively or to con-
clude peace. The question of the war
is thrown into the background by the
urgency of dynastic considerations, and
by measures to avert a military pro-
nouncemento, backed by a popular
uprising. The specter of revolution has
momentarily restrained the Carlists in
the northern provinces, but has forced
Sagasta to put his whole trust in the
leaders of the army. The Generals are
now absolute masters at Madrid, and
are likely to cast aside Sagasta as soon
as they have no further use for him.
The artillery is the most democratic
as well as the most efficient branch of
the military service, and has always
been early. in taking an active part in
any republican movement to over
turn a dynasty. To-day the entire
artillery force of the garrison of Ma
drid is openly hostile to the Govern
ment, and if ordered to fire on the peo-
pie would certainly refuse to do so, and
would fraternize with the insurgents.
Several infantry regiments when the
emergency arises, are also ready to fol-
low the example Of the artillery. The
disaffection of the army increases day
by day"

THREE DOCTORS IN CONSULTA-
TION.
From Benjamin Franklin.

"When you are sick, what you like
best is to be chosen for medicine in the
first place; what experience tells you is
best, to be chosen in the second place;
what reason ii. e., Theory says is best
to be chosen in the last place. But If
you can get DR.. Inclination, DIR. Expe-
rience and DR.. Reason to hold a consul
tation together, they will give you the
best advice that can be taken"
When you have bad cold DR.. Inclina-
ton would recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy because it is pleasant
and safe to take DIR. Experience would
recommend it because it never fails to
effect a speedy and permanent cure. DR..
Reason would recommend it because it is
prepared on scientific principles, and acts
on natures plan in relieving the lungs,
opening the secretions and restoring the
system to a natural and healthy condi-
ton. For sale by j. Hal Bobbitt, Henry
