BIG FIRE IN CHICAGO.
Flames Greatly Damage Gunther's
Confectionery Establishment.

CHICAGO. Sept. 2e.-An inestimaole
damage was wrought by fire last night in
the confectionery establishment OF Charles
F. Gunther. 2l2 State Street. A large part
of Mr. Gunther's magnificent collection OF
art and curios was destroyed by fire. An
incident OF the blaze was the escape from
the building of ESQ girls who were en-
ployed on the third and fourth floors Sew
eral of them had thrilling escapes from
death.
Although the damage to the building and
stock of candies will not exceed $50. 900. Mr.
Gunther's loss by the destruction of his art
and eurio collection will be incaiculable.
II was considered the finest private collee-
tion in the West. Relics from the cata-
combs of Pompeii and Jerusalem were ruth
lessly thrown by the firemen TO the street

THE SPANISH CRISIS.
The Silvela Cabinet to Be Merely Re-

MADRID, Sept 29.-It is apparent that
the ministerial crisis is not as acute as was
at first thought, and that the entire Cabinet
will not resign Prime Minister Silvela re-
CARDS the crisis merely as meaning that
the Cabinet Will be reconstructed. He is
seeking SUCCESSORS TO those Ministers who

REFORMS FOR CUBA.
The Presidents Conference With Mr.
Root and Mr.. Griggs.


The most important subject discussed at
yesterdays Cabinet meeting was certain
proposed reforms in the government of
Cuba The President was in conference
with Secretary Root and Mr.. Griggs sew
eral hours after other Cabinet members had
retired, and the question of governmental
improvement under General Brooke's di-
rection was thoroughly discussed by Mr.
Mckinley, the Secretary of War, and the
Attorney General. 1t is known that the
Administration views with satisfaction
what has already been accomplished in the
government of Cuba, but that it intends to
widen and perfect the system of admins
tration there as rapidly as practicable. 1t
is thought that as a result of yesterday s
conference recommendations of a definite
and far reaching character will be made in
the near future.
The Cabinet, as whole, went over pretty
thoroughly the preparations and plans for
the Dewey celebration, and after consider
able explanation and elaboration, the pro-
gramme was approved by the President.
Another topic mentioned was the transmits
sion of mails TO the Philippines. Mr..
Smith brought up the imperfections of the
present postal conyenences, and made
recommendations favoring longer and more
expeditions postal facilities between the
Pacific Coast and the Orient, as we'll as in
the distribution and delivery of the mails
in the interior of the islands.
The Attorney General spoke OF the COM
plants that have been made by persons
who have been obliged TO pay tariff charges
on boxes of cigars received as gifts from
officers of the Army, and others from Cuba
and the Philippines. One high official OF
the Government received box of cigars in
this way and was obliged to pay tariff
charges amounting to nine cents for each
cigar. II is probable that an arrangement
will be made by which these gifts Will not
be taxed II they are certified as gifts by
the proper military officers at the place of
sending

FRENCH CABINET NEUTRAL.
A Peaceful Solution of the Creusot
Strike Sought by the Government.

PARIS, Sept. 29.-Premier Waldeck-
Rousseau presided at a Cabinet council to-
day which discussed the strike at the Gre
usot Iron Works. 1t was decided that while
the Government would maintain the strict
est neutrality as between the employers and
the strikers, it would use every endeavor to
promote peaceful solution of the trouble
1t has been stated in dispatches from Paris
for the last forty-eight hours that this
strike would involve the Ministry, on ac-
count of the presence OF one or two So
cialists in the Cabinet.

1t appears that the Corps Diplomatique
has not been invited to the Dewey celebra-
ton in New York. The reason assigned is
that since foreign Governments declined
to send warships to participate, the pres
ence of their representatives is not desired
This, if true, strikes us as being rather
small business. There are good diplomatic
reasons why it might appear indelicate for
the naval power OF any foreign Government
at peace with Spain. to join in an outburst
of enthusiasm over the destruction of that
country's colonial empire; but there is no
respectable one why distinguished gentle
men attached officially to the Presidential
court in Washington should be snubbed on
any great national occasion.

of political interest? Or is it merely an
artistic representation Of the under jaw OF
a Goldfish, in the act of swallowing siren?

We do not for a moment believe that
there is any Presidential bee in the bonnet
of Admiral Dewey. At the same time, the
unanimous expression of opinion that, IL he
should run on any ticket, no other would
be heard from, inclines US TO believe that
he may be allowed little needed rest, after
he reaches Washington. He might prove
altogether too much of an attraction in the
Presidential Hanna-ring circus expe-
dition, which is going out West.

Yes, August Flower has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers' and grand
mothers never thought Of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostitution or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and or.
ganlc action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches.
