Campof'Disease in Norwalk. I California Catarrh Cure is perform- ing its mission in Norwalk. Month by month thousands- are added to the growing army of its users and friends. :in a few short months it has bounded into the foremost position as the most popular remedy in N orwalk. are none in the city now who have not heard of it, and the number of those who do not use it grows smaller every da . The reasons of its sudden and lasting popularity are easy to find. Ask the next man you meet, and he will tell you it is because it removes the bad breath, the slime in thethroat, and the scabs in the nose; because it has stop- ped the hawking, choking, gagging and nausea; because it has cured the aching head, the dry throat, the buzz- ing in the ears, broken up stubborn colds, prevented tonsilitis, diphtheria, bronchitis and consumption, and per- manently removed every trace of catarrh. That is what it has done and is doing to disease in N orwalk, and on cures like the following rests its won-‘ derful popularity: ' Mr. Alfred Platt, 9 Maple street, N orwalk, says : “I have been a great suii‘erer from catarrh for over thirty years, having contracted the disease during the war. My whole head seem- ed full of scabs, and the discharge from the nose and into the throat was somethlng awful. My head ached con- tinually, and I never got agoodnight’s sleep. I procured a bottle of Cali- fornia Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store, South Norwalk. It has given , me more relief than I have had for years; my head is very much improved and I can now sleep all night. It is certainly a great reliever, and I am glad to recommend it. Nothing among all the things I tried before helped me one-quarter as, much in months as 0.0.0. has in a few weeks.” You don’t have to wait to find out if it will help you, for it relieves at once. To avoid Hay Fever in its season, use 0.0.0. now. It is a sure preventive of this and all mucous diseases.

The most famous and most puzzling of all gold mines is Mount Morgan. It is supposed» to be the product? of a hot~ water spring, and is simply a mountain of gold, but of gold that has already been treated by Nature. off age the hill has been a huge natural crucible, and all the gold it contains has been already mined, chemically dissolved, and precipitated by Nature herself. All the gold ever discovered in the mountain exists in a sort of golden flour dissolved through iron- stone. ACord of Wood. Few persons comprehend the produc- nve capacity of a. cord of wood. Chem- ical experiments are occasionally de- veloping new uses for wood in matters remote from its ordinary adaptability, and the feature that is exciting a great deal of interest just now is the trans- formation of wood products" into iquids. ‘ Although under the strongest kind of pressure Wood yields scarcely my moisture, by means of heat wood will evolve gases and liuqids of marked potency and utility. In converting wood into charcoal, gases and smoke trise which can be condensed into pys roligneaus acid. It is estimated that there is fully 65 per cent. of this acid .1: a given quantity of wood alcohol, tcetate of lime and wood tars. The llcOhOl thus obtained is said to be a very satisfactory substitute for grain tlcohol for mechanical and manufac- turing purposes, and it can be produced Lt less than one-third of the cost of the rrain alcohol. , Investigations conducted with practi- :a1 objects in view have disclosed thes‘e Interesting facts: A cord of ’ wood, which weighs 4,000 pounds, will yield tbout 2,050 pounds of pyrollgneous acid and 700 pounds of charcoal; the acid will produce about nine gallons of 82 ner cent. crude wood ,alcohol, about 25 gallons of tar; and, fully] 200 pounds of tcetate of lime. These facts indicate I. future for wood outside of the realm )f fuel and pulp. -~ ”was; -.\.. There , In some far- ‘ Rights of Individuals Guaranteed by Constitution, Suspended PIRM MEASURES ADOPTED Peace Negotiations Are'Thought to Be in Progress. Sagasta Says, “Peace but it Must Be Honorable Peace.” The People at Large Fav‘or Pacific Measures. Cuba Will Be Given Up, but Porto Rico and Philippines Must Be Retained. Madrid, July 16.--The official Gazette yesterday published a. royal decree temporarily suspending throughout the Spanish peninsula the rights of individuals as guaranteed by the con- stitution. The decree adds that the government will render an, account to parliament of the use it may make of this measure. The publication of the decree is gen- erally accepted here as being convinc- ing proof that Spain is now ready to sue for peace, and that negotiations to that effect are actually in progress. The government wishes to have full power to suppress any evidences of dis- content or rebellion whenever they ap- pear. The pacific tendency is increasing. The general public takes a. favorable view of the suggestion that the pow- ers shouldvattempt the re-establish- ment of peace. But it is said, contrary to the reports current, that France has not taken the initiative. One minister expressed the conviction that official overtures for peace will be made before Sunday and there is rea- son -to believe that France has offered her services to Spain, and that Spain has drawn up conditions for peace that offer a basis for negotiation. Premier Sagasta is quoted as saying that Spain wants peace, “but it must be an honorable peace, such as Spain deserves.“ He is also said to have de- clared: "The army is anxious to re- sist to the last, but the government cannot consent to such a. useless sacri- fice. Had we our fleet the situation would be very different." ‘ The minister for war, General Correa, is quoted as declaring in an interview that he thought peace might be ar- ranged onthe following terms: Therni‘ted States and Spain 'to agree to let the Cubans decide by a plebiscite whether they desire independence or autonomy under the suzerainty of Spain: . “- ‘1" If“ ., or -The two governments to agree to abide by the result of the plebiscite. withdraw her army gradually and dig- nifiedly from Cuba. Continuing, the minister for war re- marked: “We ought to retain Porto Rico at all events, in order to be 3.1- cans will be able to despoi-l us in course of time, and in order to more easily communicate With the South American republics, wih-ich daily .display the greatest enthusiasm for Spain. “As to the Bhilipplne islands, it certain we' will is retain them, even -pying Manila, of which place-their oc— cupation will be most brief. An official dispatch announces that the rebel chiefs and the Americans will not al- ways agree, which is to Spain’s ad- vantage. “Tlhe _. government has formed a scheme which Will not only'assure t3 Spain the possession of the Philippine" islands, but which will te-establish tranquility." ’ The Carlists are furious and are sur to attempt to create trouble. ' INDIVIDUALS GET THE BONDS. I None Left for Those Who Applied for Lots in Excess of 85,000. Washington, July‘ 16.--In speaking of the bond issue Secretary Gage said that accurate figures could not be made up for several days. The first issue of the bonds would be made on the 26th of the present month. Secretary Gage has also made public .5. statement in which he says: ’ “It may now be considered as a. set- , tled fact that'no allotment of bonds can be made. to banks, corporations or oth- er forms of associated capital. The subscriptions made by individuals re- ceive preference under the law, and the aggregate of individual subscrip- tions is far in excess of the total am- ount of bonds offered. In fact no allot- ment to individual subscriptions will be possible where such sibscriptions are jin excess of $5,000. The bonds will not begin to draw interest until August 1." ,. VOTING ev SOLDIERS. If Peace is Declared Before Election This States troops May Not Vote. Albany, N. Y., July 16.--The,fra.mers of the soldiers' vote bill have encoun- tered another constitutional snag. The constitution provides that an opportu. n-ity to vote shall be afforded New York state soldiers in the federal service only in time of war. . Senator Wray said yesterday that if peace should be declared before elec- tion, and New York state troops could not reach herein time to vote at their homes, or were stationed as an army of occupation in some of our newly ac- quired territory, they could not be al- [OWed to vote. owing to this provision of the constitution.

London, July 16.--Mr. S. C. Valdes is in‘Lond-on as the nominated represent- ative of the Philippine insurgents un- der Aguinaldo. Mr. Valdes is a “na- galo” or native of the Philippines, di- rect descendants of the Japanese, who were the traders in the islands when the Spaniards first made their appear- anoe’centuries ago. Mr. Valdes was born in Batangas. cago and London. To a. representative of the Associated Prices M-r. Valdes said: “There is a sea of blood between the Spaniards and the Philippine islanders, » who have received nothing from the Spaniards but outrage, injustice ‘ and prejudice. The opportunity of the Philippines has come. We will be faithful to the Americans and will fol- low their advice. “We have an agreement with the Am- ericans, with Admiral Dewey, as fol- lows:‘ 1. The independence of the Philip- pines shall be proclaimed. ' 2. A republic Shall be established with a government designated 'by Gen- eral Aguinaldo and approved by Admi- ral Dewey or General Merritt, as the case may be. 3. The. government will recognize the temporary intervention of the Ameri- can and European commissioners des- ignated for the present by Admiral Dewey. 4. The American protectorate shall be recognized on the same- conditions as arranged for Cuba. 5. Philippineports shall be opened free for the commerce of the world. 6. Precautionary measures shall be adopted against Chinese immigration, so as to regulate the competition with the work of the natives. . 7. The corrupt Judicial present existing shall be reformed, in- trusting at the commencement the ad- ministration of justice to competent European legal oflicials. 8. The complete liberty of associa- tion, and ofthe press shall be declared. 9.

By the proclama; tion of the Philippine republic . under this agreement the balance of influence in the far East is not disturbed, and- Ithe interests of all the civilized world Will be respected and protected." Mr. Valdes said further: “The Span- iards wished to be trusted on- were violating it. powers of the assembly fixed after the war with -America.,'—-if- the natives joined .in lighting-the Americans. .. - . , “Yet at that moment Sag-ante states? in the Gert-es that no reforms were to: be granted in the Philippines, on the lines nequested by the natives. "We shall at last get our reforms, but they will not come from the hands of those who created the abuses, but, from the hands of our libel-atoms." Panic in Barcelona.

Tlhe governor of Barcelona has in- formed the people that they cannot ex- pect help from the government. The Mines Are Being Removed. New York, July 16.--The task of re- moving the submarine mines in New, York harbor was actually begun yes— tel-day morning, under the direction of the United States engineer corps. For the past month or more frequent pro-_ tests have been made to the war de-, partment at Washington and to army officials in New York regarding the presence of mine fitlds in the channels of the bay, the objections being based chiefly on the claim that there is no. longer any need for such stringent de- fence measures. . . A Captive British Schooner: . Key West, July 16.--The British schooner E. R. Nickerson, which was captured on June 30 by the Hornet, Hist and Wampastuck, off Cape Cruz, while attempting to run the blockade into Manzanill-o, was brought :here yester- day by a. prize crew under Lieutenant Dougal.

As soon as the commission of Span- ish and American officers arrange all the, minor details of the surrender of Int-o the high plateaus some miles from the coast, where they will \be outside of the fever belt. . This is all that has been positively determined uponin regard to the dis- position of our troops in Cuba. Further developments will depend on the result of the conference between General Miles and General Toral, and their respective assistants. President McKinley, yesterday, ,in speaking of the fall ofthe city of San- tiago, said: “I hope for early peace now." The subject of peace was not men- tioned at the meeting, and it can be authoritatively stated that the presi- dent has not received .an intimation from any official or even. semi-official source that Spain desired peace upon any terms that could be entertained by the United States. The surgeon general of the army rec- ommended to Secretary Alger yester- day morning rth‘art the best thing to be done is to remove our troops at San- tiago into the mountains. Orders to this effect have already been sent to General Shaffer and he will keep the men out of the fever districts until it is known just how seri- ous is the disease. Reports were in circulation at the war department yesterday morning , Chaffee and Duffield were both sick with the fever. The ofiicials refused to confirm this rumor. however. ‘ It is thought that the troops will be kept in «the highlands for several days before orders are issued detaching any considerable portion of the army for duty at Porto Rico to bring them home. It is understood that the yellow fever germs develop in about a. week, and it is thought that the army will‘be kept in Cuba at least this length of time before it is formed into a new expe- dition.

Washington, July lea-This official statement was iSSued by the state de- - partment yesterday: . “In further proof of the nobility of the character of Admiral Dewey is his recommendation to the United States government that the Chinese servants and other Chinamen who were on the ships of his squadron during the bat~ tle of Manila, and who rendered most efficient service on that occasion and behaved in a most exemplary manner, be recognized by- this government in some substantial manner. He seems to think that menpwho have battled for our country should not be excluded from it. “In referring to these Chinamen he says that they shOWed such courage and energy in the face of the enemy . that they are certainly worth the treat- ment accorded citizens of other coun— tries, who have not thus‘exposed their lives for the country in which they seek citizenship. , “He is decidedly in favor or recogniz- ing these brave and useful Chinamen in such a. way as shall admit them to the United States in case they desire to enter it and to become citizens of lt.'! Admiral Dewey’s communication, which came by mail, also gives the most generous recognition to all those who participated in any way on board of the American ships during the bat- tle of Manila.
