ma Senator Dodge stated that the Sem
ators and Representative from Cleve-
land were instructed for Hanna, and in
dignantly rejected the proposal. The
proposition was also made to Mrs.
Dodge, who was equally as indignant
as her husband. While there have been
many negotiations with the wives and
other members OF the families of Sena-
tors and Representatives druing the
past week or more, the effort to secure
the influence of Mrs. Dodge was the
last one reported.
The opposition to-day knew they were
defeated before the joint balloting be-
gan, but fought to the last on the
charges of bribery and coercion.
In the joint balloting to-day there
were no changes whatever by the Sena-
tors over their two ballots Of yester-
day. for the long and short terms Nc
1fsson received 10 votes and Hanna II
When the roll of the House was called

as follows: Hanna 50, McKisson 81
Lentz 1, absent /, Cramer.
The. joint ballot for both terms re-
suited as follows: Hanna 73. McKisson
40, Lentz 1, absent 1, Cramer.
The official declarations showed that
Hanna had a majority of three over
Mex sson, of two over all voting, and Of
one over all the members in the Cen
eral Assembly. The demonstrations in
the hail were unusually enthusiastic
Governor Bushnell and other State
officers were not present. When Fo-
raker was elected Senator on joint bal
lot in the same hall two years ago, Nc
Kinley and Bushnell We're both present,
the one having just retired and the 9TH
er having just been inaugurated as
Governor. 1t has been customary in
former years for the Governor to be
seated beside the observation-disclosures

escorted into the hall
Senator Hanna was very busily en-
gagged in the contest last Monday, and
did not participate in the Inauguration
exercises. II is stated that no invita-
ton or special arrangement had been
made for him on that occasion. and
that the same was true regarding the
Governor to-day.

The sultan and Our Missionaries.

The Porte has demanded the recall of
two American missionaries from the prov
ince of Aleppo, on the pretext that their
mission for distribution of relief is likely
to cause disturbances. 1.-THE sick man
of Europe" as he is derisively termed, is
as unreasonable as his political health is
feeble AS bright contrast to his OBJ
stinacy and stupidity, the people of Amer
lea are acknowledging far and wide the
heneficence of the mission of Hostetters
stomach Bitters, namely. to relieve and
prevent malaria, rheumatism and kidney
complaint, chronic dyspepsia, constipation
and liver trouble. The nervous. the
weak and the infirm derive unspeakabe
benefit from its use, and it greatly mitl-
gates those infirrnities specially incident
to advancing years Sleep, appetite and a
sensation of comfort throughout the sys-
tenn ensue upon its use, which should be
regular and persistent. An early resort
to this fine preventive IS logically sug-
gested to those who seek its aid.

Madrid, June 25JThe cabinet met
yesterday under the presidency Of the
queen regent. Premier Sagasta briefly
explained the situation at home and
abroad. No further news was received
from the Philippine Islands or from the
Island of Cuba. The queen regent
signed decree suspending the cortes,
which was read at the session Of the
cortes last evening. General Correa,
the minister for war. said that active
operations would be commenced
against the American troops who are
entrenched at Santiago de Cuba"
Prior to the reading Of the decree in
the chamber of deputies. which was
crowded. as were also the galleries.
Senor Salmeron. the Republican leader.
declared that some of his remarks had
been omitted from the official report Of
Thursdays proceedings.
The president of the chamber, Mar
quis Vega d 'Armijo, said the omission
must be attributable to the uproar.
which had probably prevented the re-
porters from hearing him.
Senior Salmeron then said he wished
to have included in the official report
his declarations throwing the respon-
sibility for all misfortunes Of the
country upon the monarchy.
Senior Sagasta at this point rose and
read the royal decree suspcnding par
lament The chamber of deputies then
adjourned, and without the customary
cheers for the throne.

THE TROUBLE
IS SETTLED.
Beer Will Be Sold at the
Old Price. But Suck
ers Will Be Left.

Tho trouble between the brewers ant
saloon men over who shall pay tho 8
government tax on a barrel OF beer wa
settled yesterday afternoon, and while the
saloon men won in a measure the brewer:
also gained much.

a. Longul. petsr B. Ebner and Joh n
Lemon. James H. Kane presided. He an.
n"us.ced tha object Of the meeting and
invited all tho saloon mon to express their
views And many did, but tie trend of it
all was that tho war had crippled the sa-
loon business and that no money was be
ing madO. There was no way for them to
retrench, they contended, and some few
went 50 far us to tell the brewers how they
could keep down their expenses They did
not ask for an infcrr,or quality Of beer.
however Then motion to pay none CT
the extra tax was put, and it was carried
almost unanimously. A vote to pay one
half OF tho tax was favored by but three
men. Seeing that the saloon mon would
not pay the tax Mr.. Hartmann, who was
the brewers spokesman, stated that the
manufactures had agreed to lot tdem have
beer at the old price, IS per barrel, less T. Z
per cent for collections
Mr.. kano submitted tho propo ition and
it was unanimously adopted, together
with a resolution that the local brewers
be patronized in tho future, Tho bot'lers
lost heir fight, however, Mr.. Elmer for
them announcing that their goods would
bo sold at the Old price. They will thore-
fore pay the extra 10 cents.
The aGreelnonf between brewers and sa-
loon men means Il loss to the saloon men

They Feel Tint Shnfter'S Landing
Was TOO Easily Effected.
London. June 25.--All the special dis
patches from Madrid reflect the anxiety
produced by Cervera's dispatches and
the hleatening aspect of the political
situation. There is no doubt the Span
iards are sadly disappointed at the
ease with which General Shafter ef-
fected landing and at the retreat to-
wards Santiago, which is regarded as
bad omen.
The newspapers are irritated at the
prospect that restrictions will be placed
upon their criticisms now that the
Cortes is closed
The Madrid correspondent of The
Standard, commenting upon the scenes
in the cortes, says: -rybody OBJ
served the silence Of the Carist sena-
tors and deputies during the stormy
sittirgs yesterday. Their leaders. it
appears. had instructed them to alb
stain, as the expectations OF Don Car
los lie more in the direction of COM
ing events than in parliamentary
squabbes The attitude of Martinez
&c Campos exasperates alike Republi-
cans, Carlists and Weylerites"
The Madrid correspondent of The
Daily Telegraph says: TROUBLES are
not anticipated by the population De-
spite the economic crisis the feelings
which predominate are patriotic. When
the cortes closed martial law was pro-
claimed. The Sagasta cabinet will re-
sign and make way for new govern
ment, which will open negotiations for

interviewed Admiral Montejo. Who was
defeated by Dewey at Manila. The
admiral was wounded in the leg dur
ing the fight. He said: 1.-The respon-
sibility of my defeat lies with the gov
ernment at Madrid. There were no
proper vessels here. Ever since / as
sumed command of the navy station
here / have been asking the govern
ment for ships and torpedoes, but
nothing came. l constructed some tor
pedoes myself, but we did not have
proper material, and they were very
bad. l knew from the first that my
squadron was being completely de-
stroyed. I knew the Americans had
men-of-war, whereas my ships were in
capable of fighting with any chance
Of success"
