‘ ON FIRE,
I had Eczema of the scaly, itchy kind seven
years. I thought my face and arms were
afi re. My face Was full of large white scales,
and'lmv head was full of sores. I was ashamed
to go in company. I took five bottles of CUTI-
con’n RESOLVENT,‘ washed with CUTICURA
SOAP, puton CUTICURA (ointment), and found
great relief instantly, and got a. clean face
again, thanks to CUTICURA.

—-Form of Application and HowI to

-mium.
New York, June 16.——At 10 a. m. yes-
terday a- long line of men and boys and
a. few ladies had formed in front of
the sub-treasury on Wall street. At
that hour the doors were thrown open
and the applicants for blanks applied
at the first window on the right hand
side of .the corridor. There were two
piles of blanks, one of applications for
sums of $500 or less, and the other for
sums of more than $500. Of the latter
sort, which were most in demand by
corporations, only one was given out
yesterday to each applicant. Of the
former several were allowed to the in-
dividual applicant upon his representa-
tion that they were meant to be used
by friends or relatives. The whole de-
sign of the distribution was evidently
to give the humble individual subscrib-
er‘ the preference, and to let.the corpo-
rations wait.
' Form of Application.
Any one who desires to subscribe for
the war loan may. copy the following
form and fill it out himself, provided
the amount of his subscription is more
than $500: .

Washington, D. 0., not later than three
o’clock p. m., 'I‘hursday, July 14, 1898.
Drafts, checks, monev orders, etc.,

er of the Unitid States. .
After filling it our it should be mailed
to the treasury department, Wash-ing~
ton, with cash, draft, money order or
check for 2 per cent. of the amount
subscribed. '
Subscribers wishing to take $500 or
less should use precisely the same
phraseology, except that the cash,
draft money order or check for the‘ full
amount :is mentioned, instead of the
deposit of 2 per cent, and the promise
to pay is left out. In return the gov—
ernment officers will mail a receipt enti-
tling the holder to interest on his mon-
ey. Subscribers of the latter class may
take their applications to the sub-treas—
ury with the cash and get a govern-
ment receipt for it at once. This re—
ceipt .does not insure the allotment of
the bonds subscribed for.
The first bidder for a $20 bond is the
first man to whom a bond will be a1-
lotted. The $100 bonds will be next al—
lotted and the $500 bonds next. If the
bonds of small denomination should
more than exhaust the loan of $200,000,-
000, the applications first made will be
first served, and the later applicants.
will receive their money back with in-
terest.
Secretary Gage has issued a circular 5
to the press setting: forth the nature of
the'bonds and how to subscribe for
them. 5
Already at a Premium.
Up to noon yesterday fully 4,000 per-
sons had called at the sub-treasury for
circulars and subscription blanks and
of this number several hundred had
turned aside into the office of Deputy
Maurice L. Muhleman to deposit cash
for bonds. It was said by well inform—
ed treasury officials that Tuesday’s
subscriptions were nearly $50,000 and
yesterday’s would exceed $100,000, all
,in sums of’$500 or less.
Manila’s Desperate Condition.
Madrid, June 16.—A dispatch receiv-
ed here from Captain General Augusti,
dated Manila, June 6, says:
“The situation continues critical. The
enemy surround the town. I have had
our lines drawn closer around 'the city
and strengthened at intervals by tren-
ches. Communication is still cut. I
expect General Monet with reinforce—
ments, but I have no news from him.
“The white population of the sub-
urbs, fearing they will be massacred ‘
by the rebels; and preferring the risk
of bombardment, h-ave‘entered the for-
tified part of the town and will assist
in its defence. I donut know when the

THE TAMPA EXPEDITION.
Terrible Suffering of Troop! While
C'ooped Up in - Trumpet-ti. ‘
Tampa, Fla, June 16.'—After much
sgftering caused by the inexplicable
delay in getting the first military ex-
pedition under way, 'the last soldiers
sailed for Cuba. Tuesday. The men had
been Icooped up on vessels since' last
week and the suffering endured since
then was something terrible. Not only
were the decks and rigging filled with
swarming crowds, but from glimpses
you could gain through open ports,
showed hundreds of men lving below
in their little'trough like bunks, built
sideby side across the hold in layers
of three and f-Our deep. It seems al-
most a. criminal ignorance which made
this delay necessary. There 'is no ques-
tion that the men had much of the
spirit taken out of them. Thev cried
out to know the cause of their deten-
tion. They .begged either to be sent
on or put ashore. When told that fear
of unexpected Spanish ships kept them
here they declared themselves afraid
of no Spanish s‘hips afloat. One man
said: “We have two cannon aboard.
Why don't they let us go in front if
the navy is afraid!”
Ships which under regulations are
permitted 'to have 500 passengers, all
classes included, had 900 and 1,000 sol-
diers aboard, These " men all lived be-
low w-hile'the vessels were detained
here. Officers took the upper state
rooms. They were served by the ship‘s
regular cooks and fared very well. But
the men received no warm food of any
kind excepting coffee. They ate'cold
bread, corned beef and bacon.
But all of this suffering was forgot-
ten when it becameknown that the
hour of departure was near. The spir:
its 'of the men, which had sunk down
almost to its last peg, revived .to a
great extent. They‘ seemed to smell
the blood of battle from afar; ,at any
rate, anything, no matter how danger—
ous 'to life, was preferable to the terri-
ble experience they had undergone for
almost a week.
GERMANY AND MANILA.
'Tlie Possibility of Repealing There the
Kiao-Chou Experiment.
London, June 16.—the Star yesterday
reiterated the story that Emperor Wil—
liam of Germany has ordered the Ger—
man consul at Manila to oppose the de—
barkation of Americans unless in sufli—
cient force to maintain order and pro—
tect the Germans.
.The Star adds that c. notification to
this effect has, beenoflicially given to -
the United States embassy at Berlin
and to Secretary Day at Washington.
Admiral Dietrichs, according to the
Star, has 2,400 troops, and he could dis—
embark 1,500, with two batteries of ar—
tillery, for the partial occupation of
Manila.
The Berlin correspondent of the Daily 5
. /
News says: 4
“It seems almost impossible that
Germany can have the idea of risking
a war with the United States by inter-,
ference at Manila. Nevertheless, it is
equally impossible to ignore the signifi—
cance of the fact that ideas of repeat-
ing the successful Lilac—Chou experi—
ment are evidently floating in the
brains of naval pcrsonages whose in—
fluence is so great that the matter dew
serves attention." ‘ 5 |
A special dispatch from Madrid, pub-
lished yesterday afternoon, purports to
give the substance of an interview
with Senor Sagasta, the Spanish pre-
mier, who is quoted as saying that
Tuesday’s riSe on the Bourse was due
to telegrams advising leading finan-
ciers that Russia has taken steps to
intervene shortly in the settlement of.
the Philippine question.
THE FRENCH MINISTRY OUT.
Resignation of Premier lIIelIne and His
Associates Accepted.
Paris, June 16.——M. Meline, the pre-
mier, has handed to President Faure
the resignations of the whole cabinet,
which 'the president has accepted, while
requesting the ministers to continue
the direction of affairs until their suc-
cessors are named.
The cabinet met yesterday and re—
viewed the situation caused by the ad—
verse action of the Chamber of Depu-
ties in compelling the government to
adopt a distasteful amendment to the
order of the day. The ministers reas-
sembled at 2.30 p. 111., under the presi-
dency of. President Faure, when the
resignations were presented.
It is expected that M. Ribot, ex-pre-
mier and minister of finance, .will be
invited to form 'a. new ministry, and it
is probable that M. Dupuy, who was
the premier ofrth-e cabinet which pre-
ceded -that of M. Ribot, will join the
new ministry.
ANNEXATION BILL PASSES.
By a Vet. of 209 to 91 Lower Branch of
Congreu Decides to Annex the Island.
Washington, June 16.——T.he House of
Representatives passed the Hawaiian
annexation resolution yesterday after-
noon by ‘a vote of 209 -to 91. The an-
nounce-ment of the result of the vote
was received with cheers on the Repub-
lican side of the House.
All the Republicans except three vot-
ed for annexation, and they were join-
ed by thirty-two Democrats and Popu-
lists. '
The resolution willbe laid before the
Senate to-day, and it is intended to
have it at once referred to the commit-
tee on foreign relations, which will re,-
port it back before’ihe expiration of the
day’s session, so that the debate in the
Senate can begin the day following.
If is expected that the large majority
by which the resolution passed the
HOuse will affect the Senate in its fa-
vor.‘ -
Senator Lodge spoke most positively
about the necessity of immediate, ac-
tion in the matter of annexing Hawaii.
Sampson to Be Ready.
It is said that the president has urged
Secretary Long to direct Admiral
Sampson to be prepared as speedily as
possible to send. a fieet,of first class
vessels to Porto Rico, and the officers
of the“ navy department are of the
opinion that there will be no delayin
the Porto Riean expedition on account
of the navy. Admiral Sampson has
progressed so far with his operations
at Santiago that he will be ready for
the other expedition very soon after
the corps are landed at Santiago. _
