story of Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years by
the chains Of disease is the worst torn OF
slavery. George ID. Williams, Of Man
chester, Mich, tells how such a slave was
made free. He SAYS: "My wife has been
SO helpless for five years that she could
not turn over in bed alone. After using
two bottles Of Electric Bitters, she is
wonderfully improved and able to do her
own work" This supreme remedy for
female disease quickly cures nervousness,
sleeplessness, melancholy, headache, back
ache, fainting and dizzy spells. This
miracle working medicine is a godsend to
weak, sickly, run down people. Every
bottle guaranteed. Only 80 cents. Sold

is to make the people seem TO have but
one emotion. one desire-the thought OF
independence and Of absolute separation
from the United States.
Gen. Gomez considers the dissolution OF
the Assembly az his personal achievement,
aided 10y the military administration here
and counteninced at Washington. He
believes that he emeiges from the c%outro-
yersy with the Assembly stronger than
ever with the better classes. His theory
is that the Cubans, who before thought
him merely an adroit guerrilla chief, are
now prepared 20 regard him as a political
leader, and that a few days more probably
will see him in name General in-Chief of
the army.
Yesterday the Cuban General, Pedro
Diaz, who commands i'm the province of
Pinar del Rio, invited several Generals
aud brigade commanders who are friendly
to Gomez to a conference regarding the
latters future course. As many who
were invited were some distance away
from Havana and could not arrive here in
time for the meeting, there were only n
few actually present, but the possibility of
reinstating Gomez as Commander-in-chief
was informally discussed. with the result
that little or no opposition to the proposal
developed. In order :oget a more general
expression Of opinion it was decided to
defer the formal meeting until tomorrow
morning. No other candidate is possible,
and if any such action is attempted it will
undoubtedly be carried through.

New York. June 1s--Since the recent
publication OF the severe hghting taking
place in the immediate vicinity of Manila,
opinion here concerning General OTIS abil-
ity as q commander has changed greatly.
It has been changing gradually for some
time owing TO the reports sent from tho
Philippines Of the Americans having been
forced 10 ovacuate positions "wrestod from
the insurgents" because OF one thing and
another, the wisdom of throwing away tho
lives OF American SOLDIERS IN taking un-
tenabc positions being severely questioned.
Now the optimistic reports OF General Otis
concerning the huge success Of his various
undertakings are acting as boomerang
General Otis detractors say there seems
to be no doubt that our troops have fought
heroically against odds, but their handling
has been exeorable whenever the com
manding officer in the Philippines has had
aught to do with their direct movements.
All honor is given Lawton, ovenshine
and other American officers who have done
the actual work, and private letters from
newspaper correspondents in Manila say
that, had some of the subordinate officers
suggestions been listened to by Otis. the
Filipnos would not now be hammering at
the gates Of Manila
II is pointed out that this is no time TO
play favorites, and strong movement is
to be put on foot to force the adminlstra-
ton to recall Otis in favor OF some COM
petent man.
