Our Treatment OF Spanish Cnptives-
Never before in history was there a case
where a defeated and captive enemy re-
ceived such generous treatment as we gave
the Spaniards. Other nations are aston

brought about by Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. Never before in history has there been
40 successful a medicine for the weak, debili-
tated and nervous, for stomach and liver dis
orders like dyspepsia, indigestion, biliousness
and constipation. All nations have benefit

OFFICIALS ARE CONFIDENT.
Believe Reinforccments Must Have
Reached Dewey-Hermany's Decia-s-
lions Of Neutrality. and Her Acts.

WASHINGTON, June 80. The officials
here are confident that Admiral Dewey
has received reinforcements under
Gen. Anderson, which sailed from San
Francisco on Nav %. consis ting OF
$500 men. The Charleston certainly
has arrived, as she was leading the
transports some distance after leaving
Honolulu. With the addition of her 40O
sailors and marines Dewey will feel
much safer. The navy department, il
now appears, did not expect to hear
of the arrival of the troop transports
by the 23d of this month. the date OF
Of the last report from Manila. They
had estimated that the transports
might be somewhat delayed by a con-
sideration for coal consumption, de-
string to avoid reaching Manila with
empty bunkers.
Later on there will he plenty of coal
at Manila, as United States Consul
Haywood has succeeded in purchasing
about ? 1000 tons, some of which will be
forwardedto the Philippines from Hon.
olulu. The publication of the semi.
official note referred to by IN English
newspaper this morning has caused nc
disquiet here. nor has it thrown any
new light on the situation.
1t was stated positively here last
week that there have been no diplo-
matte exchanges between the govern.
ments of the United States and Ger
many on the subject of the landing OF
German forces in Manila, and the
semi-official note above referred tc
merely confirms that statement, and
shows that the same state Of affairs
still exists.
The declaration in the note of the
German intention to land marines las
soon as it may become necessary for
the protection of Germans there" Is
said 20 be nothing more than a repeti
ton of the provisions Of the interna
tional law on that subject. However
Admiral Dewey doubtless would be
consulted as to the existence
Of such "a necessity If the
requirements Of neutrality are to be
observed by Germany, and Of that the
state department en~tertains no doubt.
Nevertheless, it is not disguised that
the administration will feel greatly re-
lieved when all the American military
forces have arrived and taken up the
occupation of Manila.
