THE NEW CIVIL GOVERNMENT
o: The Philippines Will Resemble that Of New
Mexico in Early Days.

Washington, June 6.-TEe new civil
government to be established in the
Philippines is receiving the consider
alton of the President and the secre-
tary of war. There will be a governor
for the archipelago and "A legislative
council and other officers. This gov
crLment will have control of all civil
affairs but directed by the secretary of
war.
There will be a nice distinction as to
the authority of the general command
ing troops and the governor. No Off
cial declaration has been made as to
which will be the supreme authority,
but the secretary of war will be SUI
prcme. While it is not the intention
to conduct the government of the Phil
ippines under the Spooncr law, that law
will he taken as sanctioning what is to
be done.
The new government Will be similar
to that which existed for short time
in the early days of New Mexico.
There was civil governor appointed
by the President and a commanding
general of the army. Both had their
functions in preserving the peace and
controlling the affairs of the territory.

AoEF'cIr FEARED
Ia the Philippine Customs Receipts, Owing to
Supreme Courts Decision.

Manila. June 6.-The frarmort,r,
news received here Of the Porto pica,,
decision has caused apprehension that
there Will be such deficit in the
Philippine revenues that Congress will
need to make an appropriation to meet
it. Fears are also expressed as To the
result of the application of h,rv trial.
and other features of the Const;tution
not suited to the conditions of the
Philippines.
Generals Chaffee and Macarthur
were in private conference. today. at
the latter's residence. Gen. Chaffee in
formed the correspondent of The Assoc
ciated Press. while he was not sure of
the Oricntal's general capacity for self
government he favored the establish
ment at the earliest practicable mo-
ment of civil control. He concurrcd
fully in the commissions plans for ma
tive education and business advance
ment, as native and American inter-
csts are similar.
1t seems certain that under a plain
division of the civil and military au-
thority Judge Taft and Gen. Chaffee
will collaborate admirably.

Catarrh and
Diseases Of
the Stomach.
GOVT and RHEUMATISM.

DR.. Hofmeister in a recent
lecture, said:
The unnatural motions of the
stomach causing pressure and
belchings, the irritations of the
intestines resulting in catarrh of
the bowels, and the innamed
mucous membranes are the most
fruitful Of all known causes of
disease. Out of them grow most
kidney and liver troubles, dia-
betes, all rheumatic affections and
govt. l have found that the
unnatural motions of the stomach
cease, the intestinal troubles be
come soothed, and health results
from the use of Carlsbad Sprudel
Water. The diuretic effects of this
water, its quiet action npon the
inflamed intestines are beyond all
praise" Whenever decided lax
alive action is desired add one
teaspoonful of the Carlsbad Sprud-
ell Salt to a tumblerful of the water
and take it early in the morning
before breakfast.
Beware of limitations. Each
bottle has the signature of Eisner
& Mendelson Co., sole agents,
New York, on the neck label.
