~ ‘ TEN mas ‘ ‘ lorry «+ FEMEEZEMA CU RED BY CUTICURA For ten years I suffered untold agonies from Eczema, my lower limbs being so swollen and. broken out that I could hardly go about. My brother, a physician of thirty years’ practice, and other physicians of splendid ability, tried in vain to effect a cure and signally failed. I became absolutely disheartened, and had lost all hope, when a friend induced me to give CUTICUBA REMEDIES a. trial. I used two cakes of Commons. SOAP and two boxes of CUTICUBA (ointment), and it resulted in an absolute andpermanent cure. - , DAVID M. SAPP, Plymouth, 111.

NATIVES UNFIT T0 RULE Peace Commission May Go to Paris With- out Definite Instructions, President a Thinks \Vo Owe the Islands Stabcl 1 Government. Most of the Cabinet Arc With Him. ‘Washington, Sept. 15,—The question of the disposal of the Philippines still remains unsettled, audit is not \1m- probable that the peace commissioners may departj for Paris without’specifis instructions as to all the matters which they will be called on to consider. As the situation stands at present, the administration has determined that nothing less than the cession to the United States of the entire island of Luzon shall be the minimum demand made at the Paris meeting. How much further the government will go in its directions to the peace commission has not been determined. Unquestionably it is the opinion of a majority of the cabinet that the Uni- ted States are under a moral responsi- bility to provide a better government for the Philippines. - That has been the intention of the president from the first, but some of his advisers were insistent that this country should withdraw~ its forces from Manila and leave the islands to Spanish sovereignty or whatever char- acter of government the future might develop. Since then, however, the sentiment of the country has been so overwhel- mingly against allowing Spanish rule to continue that those who were, and . perhaps are, opposed to assuming any responsibility for the Philippines have advanced to the position where they think it best not to press their previous Views. ' Out of this change of sentiment, or, at least, acceptance of the inevitable, has come the practical certainty that Spain will‘not be allowed to reign as she did in the past in he far eastern possessions which came un er the con- trol of the United States through De- wey‘s victory. W'hat‘will be included in the instruc- tions to the peace commissioners on that point has yet to be decided. It may be accepted as definite that even if the United States do not secude every island in the Philippines as a. result of the peace negotiations, there will not be a continuance of the mediaeval rule which has been practiced by the Spa- nish authorities. '- VViih the possession of Luzon assur- 0d, the United States government will have'such a strong foothold in the Phi- lippines that it can exercise jurisdic— tion over the other islands and'compel Spain or any other governmental au- thority to provide a just and liberal rule. The president and the cabinet are thoroughly. convinced that the insur- gents are not’ fit to rule» the islands, but much will be left to the discretion of the peace commission as"..t0 the recog- nition, if any, to be abgorded.to .them. Secretary Day was in 'ultation ,at the state department erday with two of his colleagues on thezpeace com— mission, Senators Davis and ‘qutelaw Reid. The other members, Senators Frye and Gray, are expected here to-day. when a consultation between the pres- ident and the commissioners will be held at the White House. Suffering in the Gold Country. Vancouver, B. C., Sept. 15.—A party of miners have arrived here from Fort Wrangel, Alaska, and relate a. story confirmatory of previous reports of suf- fering of prospectors who tried to get into the Klondike by the Ashcroft route. The party is composed of James and Frank Hazars, W. Rough and “William Mullin. Their homes are at Dolphin Lake, Manitoba. “The scenes ,of 'distress along the trail are vividly impressed on our minds,” said \Villiam Mullin.‘ “We passed fully one hundred out- fits, representing perhaps sixty men, and many of. them were actually starv- ing. “The poor fellows in many cases had lost everything—clothing, horses and provisions—-and were struggling along in a half dazed condition, eating poph- ers, ground hogs, squirrels, in fact any- thing that they could get. “They are a ragged, hungry and des- perate crowd of men, with small hopes of reaching their destination. Coca- slonally a. fortunate party on the trail gives them provisions, but none of us had much to spare. “All along the trail you can see them linger under trees and under impro- vised shelters, trudging helplessly along in the day time‘and often lying down at night withoutea bite to eat. It is simply terrible." F. C. Wade, crown attorney of the Klondike, has arrived here from Daw- son City. Mr. Wade estimates the gold output this season at $8,000,000. , A recent census shows that there are sixteen thousand people in Daw and ten thousand on rivers and cree s in the district. Wade will go tO'Otta- we and make an official report to the government. ’ Emperor o-i- Cores Poisoned.

V GETTING OUT OF PORTO RICO-, i Spanish \Var Vessels Have Salled Away l for Home, , San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. 15.—The Spanish war vessels Concha, Isabell II, Ponce de Leon and Terror, whogede- parture had been delayed through the fear of a. hurricane, sailed yesterday for Martinique, whence they will pro- ceed for Spain. The peace commissioners met in joint session at 10 o’clock for the purpose of discussing the written communications which passed between the two commis- a sions yesterday. Spain’s case was sub- mitted to the American commission- ! ers‘ in writing Monday afternoon, and thte Americans returned an answer at nine o’clock. While great secrecy is observed as I to the deliberations of the commission it is reported privately that Spaig, has agreed to the hoisting of the American flag here within two or three daysfi'the evacuation of the Spanish troops tofol— low with all haste. Mshington, D. C., Sept. 15.——Ad‘mir- al Schley has cabled the navy depart- ment as follows: San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. 14. The Spanish vessels evacuated Porto Rico this morning. Terror, Concha, Is— abel, Seguando, Ponce de Leon and Criolla and a small gunboat out of commission. This is taken to mean that the ves- sels named have, under the agreement reached by the commission, sailed from Porto Rican waters for Spain. The Terror is a. torpedo boat, and is the only vessel of the fleet which star- ted from Cape Verde under command of Admiral Cervera to escape destruc- tion. CHINA’S RULER AWAKENING.
