AEveryhody Talks of the Klondike.

With the approach of Spring and the
opening days of navigation and trans-
portation in Alaska, the interest in the
wonderful gold mines of the Klondike
is increasing. Those of our readers
who contemplate the long journey,
Should put themselves into communica-
tion promptly with The Joseph Ladue
Gold Mining and Development Com-
pany of Yukon. This Company, which
has been organized by some of the
most prominent financiers of New York,
runs its line of steamers to Dawson
City via St. Michaels. It actually owns
some of the most valuable placer and
quartz mines in the Klondike. The
attention of our readers is called to a
tatement of the Company printed in
his issue.

At the South Norwalk city meeting
next Monday evening, it will probably
be voted to extend the brick pavement
down South Main street to Woodward
avenue.

which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a. guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is

The Santiago Army Will Be Sent
North to Escape Fever.

NFW TROOPS T0 PORTO RICO

Troops Before Santiago to Be Brought
to the United States and Kept in the
North Until October. They \Vill Not Be
a Part of the Porto Rico Expedition.
but Will Be Sent Back in the Fall
Washington, D. 0., July 15.--A1though

the‘ reported appearance of a few cases

of yellow fever among our troops In
front of- Santiago presents a perplexmg
problem to the president and his and--
visers, it is almost certain to result in
the temporary removal of practically

all our land forces from the island of.

Cuba as promptly as possible. ,

In this connection the question of
Withholding for the present the expe-
dition now being fitted out against Por-
to Rico has been under serious consido
eration, but up to this time no positive
conclusion, it is thought, has been
reached. .

Investigation with respect to the cli-
matic condition at San Juan, however,
has convinced the officials that there
would be practically no danger to our
troOps there from yellow fever, which
annually prevails in nearly all parts
of Cuba.

The city of San Juan, which is built
on high ground, is said to be excep-
tionally clean for a Spanish town. The
water is said to be good and, all things
considered, it is not believed that the
present arrangements for the invasion
of the island will be interfered with.

None of the troops now in front of
Santiago, it is understood, will take
part in this expedition, 'but will be
brought north to remain until October,
when it is expected that the danger of
the Cuban fevers will have passed
away.

Major General Brooke has been or-
dered from Chickamauga to Washing-
ton for consultation regarding the Por-
to Rico expedition.

No more .troops will be sent to Cuba
save two regiments of immunes from
New Orleans and Galveston.

Surgeon General Sternberg stated
yesterday that ‘he had re-ctived no fur-
ther reports as to the health of the sol-
diers in camp at Santiago. He regard-
ed this as a hopeful sign, taking it for
granted that, if there had been a con-
siderable extension of yellow fever, the
fact would have been reported to
him. , .

 

, NOvFever in “Washington,

Washington, D. C., July 15.—-Dr.
Blodgood of the Naval Hospital here
said yesterday that there was not the
slightest possibility that yellow fever
cases would be brought here for treat-e
ment, nor would the ship carrying them
even approach New York or any other
city. Dr: Bloodgood also said .that
there had been no cases of yellow fever

reported on board any of theegAmeri-

can ships up to the present time-and
he thought it likely in view of the ex-
treme precautions taken, that the fever
may be avoided altogether in the'n-avy.
Cases appearing among the land'forces,
he said, would doubtless be handled
promptly and effectively quarantined.
The standard of the present} medical
force and equipments in both the army
and navy he believed made a spread
of the disease very unlikely, as scien-
tific study of the fever has resulted in
almost certain cures and prevent-a-
tives. .

SPAIN FEARS WATSON.

 

Coast Light Out and Harbors’Clofid‘h]
Night. ‘ I

London, July 15.--According to mail
advices received here from 'Ca.diz,'dat-'
ed July 3, the old Spanish broadside
armor clad Vitoria, for some 'time past
used as a training ship, which was
tOWed back to Cadiz, after starting os-
tensibly for the Philippine islands with
the fleet of Admiral Camera, is the
only warship in the harbor.

Mines have been laid to protest the
entrance into the port of Cadiz, and
the coast lights are extinguished along
the whole Spanish coast.

Vessels are excluded from all harbors
of Spain after dark.

Advices received here to-day from
the Canary islands, under date of July
4, say the two Spanish torpedo boats
are still at Las Palmas, and it is an-
nounced that a Spanish warship is at
anchor at Teneri’ffe. '

Ships are not allowed to enter the
harbor after dark, and the coast lights
are extinguished. Most of the visitors
have left the place. '

Pillsbury One Game Ahead.

Vienna, July 15.——By dint of sheer
pluck and unwavering persistency.
Pillsbury manages to keep the Ameri-
can colors well to the fore among the
world's chess masters competing here
in the international chess tournament.
Slowly but surely be is forging ahead
of his chief rival, Tarrasch, W'hoyin-
vincible to all but the young American
himself, cannot, however, be altogether
shaken off. Last night Pillsbury had
increased his lead to a clear game, hav-
ing won from Tschigorin, as predicted,
while Tarrasch could not escape the
unwelcome draw forced on him by
Schlechter.

Government. Finances in (yo ra Condition

Washington, July 15.--Aside from the
bond issue the finances of the govern—
ment are in good condition. The cash
balance in the treasury, amounting to
$223,284,229, including the gold reserve,
which has not fallen noticeably since
the war was declared, notwithstanding
the fact that large payments of gold
«have been made in the course of busi-
ness since then. The war revenue law
has increased the receipts of the gov-
ernment about $700,000 per day.

Carried Help to Cubans.

Key West, July 15.--The first news
of the successful landing of the Florida.
and Fanita expeditions, which left here
on June 25, was received yesterday mor-
ning.

The landing was effected early on the
morning of July 3, at Pa‘lo Alto, on
the soutli coast of Cuba, but not'hunltll

A $1,100_.OO0,000 SUBSCRIPTION ,,_

War Loan Has ,Proved n Remarkable

. I Success.

4 Washington, D. 0., July 15.--Subscrlp-
tions to the issue of $200,000,000 war loan
bonds closed at 3 o’clock yesterday. The
tabulation of the applications will not
be completed for some time, but enough
is known to warrant the statement that
the loan is a great success, in its pop-
ularity, than the most sanguine had
expected. Assistant Secretary Vander-
lip said that approximately the sub-
scriptions would reach $1,100,000,000, five
and a half times the amount that had
been asked for.

Of these $500,000,000 are in syndicate
bids, two of them for the entire issue;
$700,000,000 are represented by checks,
drafts, postal and express money or—
ders :about $75,000,000 are in sums of
$500 and less, the subscriptions being
accompanied by the cash.

There will be no allotments in ex-
cess of $10,000, and none at all to firms
or corporations. Subscriptions came in
yesterday by telegraph and special de-
livery letters arrived in great numbers.
The first mail received yesterday mor-

' ning contained between 6,000 and 7,000

letters. Last Monday’s mail of 21,600
letters was the greatest received in an;r
one day since the call was issued.

THE TERRITORY SURRENDERED.

 

It Includes 11,000 Square Mile', Four
Cities and 150,000 Inhabitants.

Washington, July 15.--The territory
surrendered by General Toral includes
an area of 11,000 square miles, With
some 150,000 inhabitants, and contains
the cities of Santiago, Guantanamo, Ba-
racoa and Sagua de Tanamo,

The region is one of the richest in
the island. It has numerous iron, man-
ganese and copper mines, some of
which are owned by American syndi-
cates. Among these are those of .lu-
ragua, Sigua, Ponupo and Baiquiri.

The Guantanamo district has a num-
ber of magnificent sugar plantations.
among which are those of Soledad, L03
Canos and Isabel of Brooks and com-
pany, Esperanzo of Baro, Romelie of
McKinley,,_,Sant'a‘ Cecilia. of Arturo Si-
mon, San Miguel, Confiuente and San
Ildefenso of Bueno and company.

Santiago proper has a number of
plantations, the largest of which are

CHINA’S REBELLION.

 

Defeat 0! Imperial Forces Rear “'0"-
Chow is l'onfirined.

Hong Kong, July 15.——The defeat of
the imperial troops near \Voo—Chow is
confirmed.

Thousands of bodies have been recov—
ered from the river and have been bur—
ied at Woo-Chow. .The losses of the
imperial forces are probably more than
1,500 killed, which was the number firs:
announced. '

,It is reported here that the Chinese
doctor Sun Yat Sen, who was inveigle-i
into he Chinese embassy In London in
1896 and imprisoned there until he suc-
ceeded in notifying the British govern-
ment officials through a friend, that he
had been kidnapped, is among the lead-
ers of the present rebellion.

. It is said the rebels have decided not
to advance further than Shue-Hing,
above Sams-Hu-i, fearing foreign com-
plications in the event of Canton being
attacked. ‘

The credibility of this report is ques-
tioned. as the inhabitants of Canton are
greatly in sympathy with the rebels.

SAM PSON’S TERMS.

 

Notified Shatter That Spanish Surrender
Must Include Mines Removed,

Off Santiago, July 15.--Admiral
Sampson formally notified General
Shaffer that he must not sign any ac—
ceptance of surrender without first con-
sulting him. Admiral Sampson was
anxious that any surrender should in-
clude a. thorough removal of all mines
in the harbor, and the evacuation of
all ports which had fired on his ships.

The bombardment of the 'city of San-
tiago by the fleet, which it had been
intended to begin yesterday morning,
was again postponed on account of a
message from General Shatter announ-
cing another truce. The Massachusetts
and the Oregon had come up from Gu-
antanamo bay for the purpose of par-
ticipating.

The postponement 3of the naval as—
sault on Santiago will delay the sali-
ing of Commodore V’Vatson’s squadron
for the coast of Spain temporarily.

Cuban Navy.

Jacksonville, Fla, July 15.--The “Cu-
ban- navy” is in bad shape.

The naphtha launch Alfrede, Captain
John (Dynamite) O’Brien, in charge,
arrived yesterday morning in a disa-
bled condition, bOWSprit and topmasts
broken and running gear disarranged.

O’Brien reports heavy weather off
Brunswick, and the launch barely cs—
caped wreck from the heavy seas. She
will remain here repairing for some
days. J. A. Huan, chief of the Cuban

will leave.

Major Harris-on, acting ordnance ofli-
cer, is displaying great activity now,
and ordnance stores, rifles ,etc., are
coming in freely.

The commanding officers think there
is something in the wind and that a
forward move is ingthe air. The gen-
eral rumor is that the camp prepared
at Fernandina will not be used, not-
withstanding the expense incurred by
citizens and others of some eight thou-
sand dollars in preparing it. ~

Tried to Run the Blockade.

Key West, July 15.--A cruiser which
has arrived from the vicinity of Hi-
vana, where she had been doing 'block-
ads duty for the past two weeks, re-
ports that under coirer of darkness last
Sunday night a. large vessel attempted
to break the blockade and enter Hava-
na harbor. _ .

When first discovered the stranger
was heading straight in shore for Mor-

' to light.

Being fired upon she turned around
and put to see. under full speed, leav-
ing her identity unknown. ,

 

 

Spain’s Cabinet Diviccd.
Madrid, July 15.--The minister or the
interior, Senor Capdepon, in an inter—
view yesterday, is quoted as saying he
could not deny that a portion of the
cabinet was in favor of peace.
“But,” he added, “peace is a very
difficult problem to solve.”

Things .You Can Do
Just as Well as a Learned
Physician.

Often it is needless to consult a doctor.
At such times you can treat ourself
just as well as the most learne physi-
cian. When a. man or woman is suffer-
ing from Kidney disease,the doctor asks:
“ Do you desire to urinate often, and are
you compelled to get up frequently at
night to make water? Do you have
pains in the small of the back? Does
your urine stain linen? Is there a scald-
ing pain in assing water, and is it
difficult to ho d the urine back? ” If the
answer is “Yes” to any of these ques-
tions, your Kidneys are diseased and
decay has set in. Ask yourself these
questions, and answer them.

There is another thing you can do.
Put some of your urine in a glass tumbler
or bottle, and let it stand 24 hours. If
there is a sediment or powder-like sub-
stance at the bottom, or a. cloudy
appearance, there is grave danger. Your
Kidneys, are surely affected. Sufferers
with any of the above 5 mptoms ought
to be glad to know that r. David Ken-
nedy's Favorite Remedy will surely
relieve and cure even the most distress-
ing cases. No living physician can pre-
scribe a medicine for Kidney, Bladder,
Liver and Blood that equals Favorite
Remedy—not one. Nearly all who drink
beer or whiske have diseased Kidneys,
but Favorite emedy removes the bad
effects, and it also does away with
the use of instruments for pushing back
the sand matter so that t e urine may
pass free y from the bladder. All drug
stores sell this medicine for $1 a bottle.

SAMPIE BOTTLE mm, '

Favorite Remedy can be tested With-
out cost. Send full postofiice address
to the Dr. David Kenned Corporation,
Rondout, N.Y., and mention this paper.
We will then mail you a sample bottle
free, together with circulars giving full
directions. Those who suffer from any
of the symptoms mentioned above
should write at once. Our readers can de-
pend upon the genuineness of this ofier.
