Weakened Gne Man’s Constitution
Until Ii Brought Him to
Death’s Deer.

Mr. James S. Harrison, a well—known
and highly respected citizen of Cleve-
land, 0., was for years a sufferer from
dyspepsia and general debility, and in
his weakened condition, resulting from
the above causes, he had the additional
ill-luck to fall a. victim to malaria from
this complication of disorders. , M r.
Harrison’s condition was becoming,r very '
serious, when he commenced to take P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy. Its
effects were marked and immediate.
Read his letter to us. Its earnestness
is apparent:

GENTLEM‘EN: For the benefit of all
suffering from dyspepsia and general
debility I beg to submit my testimonial
as to the efficacy of your P. P. P., Lipp-
man’s Great Remedy, as a positive

from which I suffered-

My system was also full of Malaria
and my condition‘was growing very
serious; I had no appetite, was losing
strength and was completely broken
down in health, but now my health is
completely restored, and I can eat like
a field laborer, without the slightest
fear of any serious results.

I take at pleasure in telling the
world that P. P. P. did the grand work
of restoring me to my accustomed
health. Yours trul ,
JAMES S. HARRISON,

Cleveland, 0.

New York, July 6.—All was bustle

and confusion yesterday at the Ameri-
can line pier at the foot of Fulton
street, where-the United States auxili—
ary cruiser St. Paul lay. The -..‘: .: was
being loaded with 2,500. tons of coal,
provisions, including fresh fruits and

dent’s Own Regiment,” under Colonel

Henry, which left Camp Alger at
Washington, D. C., yesterday for this
city.

”I don’t exactly know myself just
what I am to do,” said Captain Sigsbee
yesterday. “The only information that

.I have got is in the form of an order

from Washington to make preparations
to take a regiment of infantry south.
I presume that this is the Eight-h Ohio.
as that has been the one spoken-of thus
far. I shall finish cooling to—day and
also will have all my supplies aboard
and can sail just so soon as the troops
get aboard." . ’
Among the supplies which are lead-
ing on the St. Paul for General Shaf—
ter are 10,000 canvas uniforms, 25,000
suits of underclolthing, 59,000 pairs of
socks, 5,000 campaign hats and 25,000
pairs of shoes. More than the 10,000
canvas suits already loaded will be sent

that the department quantermaster put
in for them is able to be filled in time.
The cruiser will also carry a lot of
horseshoes,’ muleshoes and nails.

tricts.

i ON THE YUKON RIV'E'R.

 

'Parly Reaches St. Michael in Open Boats
fWith News of the Winter in Gold Region,
; Vancouver, B. 0., July 6.—Advlces re-
ceived here from the port of St. Mich-
ael, on Norton Sound, say that the ice
left the harbor of St. Michael on June
16. The tug New England was the first
steamer to arrive there. At Dutch
harbor there are a great many river
boats being.r built for the Yukon trade.
The Yukon river opened at Dawson on
May 8.

A party of eighteen men left Dawson
City on June 1 in small open boats and
reached St. Michael on June 15, a. dis-
tance of 1,800 miles, in fourteen days
and sixteen hours. The Yukon is eight
fet higher than ever known.

- Dawson is flooded. There is a. great
deal of sickness in Dawson, the death
rate being three to four daily. Typhoid,
pneumonia and scurvy are the prevail-
ing ailments. The ‘hospital and church
it Dawson were burned dOWn on June

It is reported that there are 16,000
claims recorded, and only about 200 are
ona paying basis. 'It is estimated that
from $10,000,000 to $40,000,000 will come
out of the country this spring. Agood
part of this will be composed of last
year’s output. Outcoming miners say
that new miners will have to go to en-
tirely new grounds for diggings.

 

TO INCREASE THE ARMY.

 

Bill to Enlist 25,000 Negro Troops Sent
to the House.

“Washington, June 5.—An increase of
the force in the ofl‘lce'of the judge ad-
voca-te general of the army by the ad-
dition of a colonel and a lieutenant col-
onel, to be made by promotion of offi-
cers now in the department, was rec-
ommended in a. letter from Secretary
Alger to Speaker Reed yesterday. Judge
Advocate ~General Lieber sets forth
the necessity for the additional force,
and submitted the draft of a bill to
carry the recommendation luv-:0 effect,
which accompanied the letter from Sec-
retary Alger.

The advertised bill authorizing the
president t oenllst 25,000 negro troops
for service .in tropical countries was
sent to 'the House by Secretary Alger.

The secretary says in his letter of
transmittal: “In View of the special
adaptability of calmed troops for ser-
vice under :the co. . 1‘-

 
 

.on-s of a tropical
climate the passage of this bill is re-
garded as very important to success-
ful military operations in the war in
which we are now engaged. It is hop-
ed that the Congress wiil recognize its
necessity by prompt enactment.”

 

Can the Colon Be Saved,

Off Santiago, July 6.—The Spanish
armored cruiser Cristobal Colon has
listed on her beam ends on the rocks.

It is now practically impossible to
save her. ‘

The first and only statement concern-
ing the recent naval battle mode by the
Spanish commander, Admiral Ce‘rve-ra,
was to a correspondent of the ‘Assoc‘l—
ated Press, on board the battleship
Iowa. It was as follows:

“I would rather lose my ships at see.
like a sailor, than in a. narbor. It was
the only thing left for me "to do.”

Will Try to Save Her.

I’Vas'hington, July 5.—Naval officers
state that although reports from Santi-
ago say that the Spanish war vessels
have been destroyed, there was every
hope that the Cristobal Colon at least
might be saved. The later reports that
she had gone upon the rocks are not
believed. ~

One thigh official states thatwreck-
ing vessels have been ordered to Santi-
ago in the hope of saving the Colon,‘
and perhaps one or two of the others.
The department thong-ht at lea-st the
heavy guns and other pontions of the
vessels could be recovered.

Chicago Without News.
-Chicago, July 6.—T'he strike of a
handful of men is still keeping hun-
dreds of newspaper workers here 011:
of employment. In all, it is said, there
were only about sixty of the disaffected
stereotypers, but their peremptory de-
mands for higher wages, a smaller
number of hours for a day's work, and
big pay for overtime have prevented
600 compositors, 175 reporters, 150 press—
men and other regular employes of
newspaper offices from earning any
money.

THE MAINE IS AYENGED

Fleeing Squadron.

Pluton and Terror Among Licut. Com-

’Escnpe of the American Ships Almost

IIIiracqu'us.

Pert Antonio, Jamaica, July 6.—For '

hours after Admiral Cervera. went on
board the Gloucester the Infants. Maria

 

 

Teresa, Almirante Oquendo and Viz-

- caya continued to burn, and every now

and then a deep roar, accompanied by
a burst-of flame and smoke from the

' sides of the ships, would announce the

explosion of more ammunition or an-
other magazine. ,

As Lieutenant Command-er Wain-
wright watched .the conflagration from
the bridge, he said to an officer beside
him: ’

“The Maine is avenged.”

Lieutenant Commander Wainwright
Was executive officer of the Maine
when she was destroyed.

Just then the Pluton and the Terror
sank. The Gloucester’s boat picked up
as many of the survivors as she could
find on the shore. The prisoners ‘of
war included ltllC captains of both
boats. None offered any reslstance and
they were glad to go to the Gloucester,
as they feared an attack from the Cu-
bans.

A number of the survivors, including
officers of the Fur-or, who, it was re—
ported, had their legs shot off, were
scattered along «the coast for some d-i-s-
rtance and could not be found. Three
oflicers and six men of the Pluton es-
caped in one of their ‘own boats and
pulled to the Associated Press dispatch
boat Wanda, where they remained un-
til their captain, who was held a. pris-
oner on the Gloucester, ordered them
to join him on lthe latter vessel.

The most remarkable feature of the

combat was rthe fact that, notwith-
standing the utter destruction of the
Spanish fleet and the hard fight those
ships made even after they were on
fire, the American vessels should es-L
cape w-ilthout injury. The only thing
this can be att-nlbu'ted to is the poor
marksmanship of the Spanish gun-
ners, which has been so well demon-
strated in every other conflict of the
war. .
The Newark, Commodore Watson’s
flag ship, did not participate in the
great capture, as she was coaling at
Guantanamo.

In the great sea fight which took
place Monday Spain lost six ships, 300
men killed, 150 wounded and 1,800 pris-
oners. Our loss was one man killed
and two wounded, None of our ships
was seriously hurt. Admiral Cervera,
Vice Admiral Villamil, Captain Eulate,
and the other ofiicers and men are
held as prisoners. They were all trans-
ferred to the St. Louis yesterday and
sent to New York. '

Admiral Cervera said in answer to
the question why he made the dash
out of the harbor with his fleet, that
he was forced to come out in obedience
to an order fro-m‘Captain General Blan-
co, who was acting under instructions
from the government at Madrid. He
made a dash for the west, he said, be-
cause only the Brooklyn and three
American battleships were on that side
of 'the harbor. He thought he Would
be able to outrun the battleships, and
if the Brooklyn followed he could whip
her. ‘

The wrecks of six vessels of Cervera’s
fleet are strewn along the Cuban beach
from a. point two miles distapt from
the entrance to Santiago harbor to
Jarqu-lna. Point, fifty miles away.

The Brooklyn and the50regon chased
the Cristobal Colon to the latter point,
where they captured her, and a prize
crew was put on board.

Before she was boarded, however, the
Spaniards had opened all of the sea
valves and thrown all Ithe caps of the
valves overboard.

The ship was fast filling with water
and sank rapidly, and she finally ca—
reened over on her beam ends, with her
big guns pointing toward the sky. She
cannot be saved.

 

WILL HAVANA BE NEXT?
Said an Expedition Will Join Sampson’

Fleet in an Attack on Capital.
Santiago, July 6.—I»t is stated posit-
ively that an expedition is now being
fitted out for an attack upon Havana,
and rthat Admiral Sampson’s fleet will
proceed there immediately after they
have concluded the operations against

Santiago.

 

Not Credited in Washington.

Washington, July 6.—A cabinet offi-
cer after the cabinet meeting yesterday
denied in the most positive manner the
reports from Santiago that after the
fall of that place Admiral Sampson’s
fleet would attack Havana.

He stated that such was not the in-
tention and that the nex: move would
be on Porto Rico, and that when that
island was taken the attack upon the
Spanish coast would follow.

Officialsat the navy department, be-
fore this authoritative statement was
made, gave little credence to the report
from Santiago. They said that the war
board decided these matters, and not
A'dmir-al Sampson, and that 'the inten-
tion to attack Porto Rico after Santia-
go had fallen had neVer been chang-
ed.

Ice-Bound Newfoundland Ports.

Montreal, July. 6.—A correspondent
writes from St. Johns, N. F.: “This
year has been unprecedented in regard
to the enormous quantities of Arctic
ice that beset the northeastern shores
of the island up to the end of June.
All the northern bays have been filled
wi-thice through which no Steamer
could penetrate. Craft‘bound for La.-
brador were obliged to take refuge
where they could and wait for weeks
for an off-shore wind to clear away the
ice. In White Bay and other places peo.
ple were in danger of actually dying
from starvation, land- it is feared that
, when news from these localities in re-
Leive'd sad tales will be told. .
