LONDON, April "A special dis
patch from Madrid says United States
Minister Woodford is making the neces-
sary preparations to leave Madrid in
mediately in the event of a diplomatic
rupture.
MADRID, April 1.-The most impor-
tant comment on the situation this aft
ernoon is that of the ministerial journal
Ell Liberal, which may be looked upon
as undoubtedly rejecting the position
Of the Spanish government. The paper
Says:
We have done all we can to remove a
pretext for rupture. If President McKin-
ley refuses our concessions we, with quiet
conscience, will await any trials which may
come, and defend our honor and our rights.
The entire nation supports the govern
evenings enthusiasm. Rich and poor are
working together. No one asks whether the
sum collected goes for warshlps. 1t sufflces
to know that 1t will be employed to rebuff
any foreign press re. Spain must no long
er live under the continual menace and I'M
rest of the past three years. There must
rupture is preferable. Intervention is de-
facto even now. We desire and appeal for
peace, but the limit of our long suffering
sors, but we will defend our rights with our
traditional tenacity and bravery.
The message, which the Cuban colon
ial government has addressed to Presi-
dent Mckinley through Senior Polo y
Bernabe, Spanish minister at Washing
ton, the full text of which has been
published here, has caused a feeling Of
deep emotion throughout Spain, since
1t represents the opinion not only of
"a large majority of the Cubans," but
also the unanimous feeling of all politi-
cal parties, whose leaders were con-
suited prior to its dispatch.
The substance of yesterdays propo-
sails of the Spanish government, the
Associated Press correspondent learns
is:
That the insurgents should ask for an
arni1stice, and not the United States.
That the request for an armistice should
be dealt with by the autonomist cabinet of
Cuba, and without the Intervention or good
offices of the United States.

AN INTRICATE MACHINE.

1t Turns Out Over 100000 Pills
Every Working Day.
At ST. Helens, Lancashire, England, there
is a factory containing intricate machinery
which turns out 100000 pills every eight
working hours. These pills cure constipa-
ton, and the people know it. The name is
Beecham's.
There never has been signed testimonial
published, as the proprietor believes Beech
ans Pills should make Roadway on their
own merits The advertising is confined to
moderate statements of what the pills actu-
ally do.
An annual sale Of 100000 boxes proves
Beecham's Pills to be the most popular rem
edy on earth for constipation and kindred
diseases.

DIES MONIES, To-, April before
adjourning today the two houses pass
ed resolution giving the government
$500, 900 to spend in case Of war in en-
listing, equipping and sending to the
front its quota Of troops for Cuba.
The resolution met with a little oppo-
sition In the house, where some of the
members seemed to think that an extra
session in case of war would be more
advisable, but those objections were
soon overcome when the advantages Of
were pointed out. A number Of speech
es were made which showed that the
legislators would be ready to appro-
pirate $5,000,00O for war If necessary.
Both houses also passed resolutions
indorsing the course Of the president,
congress and Consul General Lee in the
conduct Of the Cuban question and ex-
horting them to stand firm for the right
whether the outcome be peace or war.
The scene was impressive and when
the 100000 was voted to send soldiers
to the front, there was cheering which
was mingled with tears of the women
present.
COLUMBUS, O., April SENATOR
Riley has introduced a bill to appro-
pirate $1,OO0,OOO to put Ohio on a war
footing. An effort was made to pass
the bill under suspension Of the rules,
but it was found that there were not
enough senators present to take this
step, and it was referred to the COM
mittee on finances.
When the friends Of the measure
found that 1t could not be passed IN
the senate today, Representative Par
ker, of Cleveland, introduced an identi-
cally similar bill in the house. AS in
the senate it was greeted with much
excitement The lack of a quorum,
however prevented immediate action,
and it was referred to the house finance
committee.

There was dismay in the Doran camp
yesterday. The same feelings prevailed
the ranks of the Republicans generally
over the disgraceful state Of affairs in
the Republican police department, as
demonstrated in the Gruber trial.
The Doranites are the most affected
and the opponents of the mayor in his
own party, are using the case against
him. The mayor himself is not inclin-
ed to talk, and his best friends are
awaiting Developments They will use
a conviction for Gruber for vindica-

is found not guilty.
a city hall official, who Is under obi
cations to the present mayor for his

Gruber case would certainly beat the
mayor if he should get before the peo-
pie" He has been a Doran man and

A PROTEST AGAINST THE rRITE

! Mr. Blykins was in skeptical frame
of mind. He had been sitting giurn
and silent for some time. His wife
essayed conversation once or twice, but
her efforts met with no encourage
ment. She realized that his own
thoughts were of more Importance to
him than any which might be sugges-
ted by an outside consciousness. snd
relapsed into silence. She had some
curiosity, but she knew from experience
that the easiest way to have 1t sat
isfied was to wait until his overcnarged
intellect began spontaneous lisclos-
ure. This soon occurred.

FELL SIXTY FEET.
TWO Men Precipitated Down Elevator
Well at South Gardner.

South Gardner Oct 1.-two men
fell four stories this evening down an
elevator shaft in the toy factory Of L.
B. Ramsdell inf1icting injuries which,
although not fatal, are of q most seri-
Gus nature, and the men will be laid
UP for some time. The men who fell
when the elevator broke are Bert Black
and fellow named Brooks.
They were busy at work on the ele-
vator when suddenly something broke
and the carriage went crashing through
space to basement below about go feet.
The men were terribly shaken up as a
result of their fall and when picked up
showed the effects of a terrible toss.
AS soon as possible DIR. c. H. Bailey
was called to the shop, where he at
tended the injured men. He then or
dered the men taken to their homes,
where a closer examination showed
that Black received two bad cuts on the
head. which required several stitches,
and his arm was also badly bruised.
Brooks received severe internal in
juries and was badly shaken up.
When picked up the men were moan
ing piteously, and Black seemed to ex-
perience the most pain. The two men
are under the constant care of DR..
Bailey, and late tonight they suffered
greatly from the pain. Black had only
just begun work this morning, having
been laid up on account of a lame arm
for some time.

MRS. JoBsoN's ECONOMY

There was furtive expression in Mrs.

chair opposite Mr.. Jobson, occasionally re-
garding him out of the tail of her eye.

chances at her spouse Mrs. Jobson COINED

QUIET CAMPAIGNS,
There viii be Little Platform Talking
This FALL

This Fall.
All of the nominations for state Off
GERS have been made, and except for
the Mellen- Russell contest in ward a.
no aggressive work is being done by
the candidates OF either party. There
have been rumors that the congression-
al candidates might stump the district
but inquiry In this regard failed to re-
veal any pre-arranged program. The
democratic city committee Is actively
at work in the various wards in the in
terests Of several candidates, and, es-
pecially in ward five, where Represent
alive Carberry is a candidate for re-
election, they feel exceedingly conf
dent.
The chairmen of the various ward
and town committees were in consulta-
ton with John r. Thayer yesterday,
throughout the district was mapped
out. 1t is not probable that Mr.. Thayer
will stump the neighboring towns in his
own behalf, unless Congressman Walk
err decides to do a little missionary
work. Mr.. Thayer had no thoughts for
politics yesterday being engaged all
day at an auditors hearing at the court
house.
The utmost confidence is felt among
leading republicans that Mr., Walker
will be returned for a sixth term by
a very large majority, and, although
there is a feeling that Mr.. Thayer may
draw a few votes from the party
strength, no anxiety whatever is felt
as to the outcome, the only question
being the size of the majority.
