WASHINGTON, April 12.—The condi- 5
tion of-war which has existed between
the United States and Spain since April
21, 1898. terminated yesterday, when
the last formalities in the restoration
of peace were performed by the ex-
change of ratifications of the peace
t1.eat3 Coincident with this President
McKinley issuedehis proclamation de-
claims; that the war was at an end,
and the appointment of Bellamy Storer
was determined upon as United States
minister to Spain. The principal cere-
mony of the day occurred in the recep—
tion room at the White House when the
exchange of ratifications tool-2 place at
3 o’clock. In anticipation of the his—
toric character of the event many mem—
bers of the cabinet and officials promi-
nent in the administration gathered at
the White House. They included See-
retaries I-Iay, Wilson and Hitchcock,
Senator Davis, one of the peace com-
missioners who negotiated the treaty;
Assistant Secretaries Hill, Adee and
Cridler of the state department, Acting
Secretary o£‘~War Meiklejohn, Adjutant
General Corbin, Solicitor General Rich—
ards, Hon. Wayne MacVeagh and Mr.
Sidney Smith,.chief of the bureau of
diplomatic correspondence of the state
department, who‘ had prepared the
American copy of the treaty.
Shortly before 3 o’clock the French
embassador, M. Cambon, arrived in
company with M. Thiebaut, the first
secretary of the embassy, the latter
bearing the Spanish copy of the peace
treaty. Mr. McKinley cordially greet-
ed the embassador, and after a brief ex-
change of well wishes the formal cere-
mony began. The president stood back
of the large desk presented to the gov-
ernment by Queen Victoria, while Sec-
retary Hay and Embassador Cambon
occupied places at the desk. Around
this central group were ranged the cab-
inet officers and others already men-
tioned and officials of the household.
The powers of M. Cambon and Secre-
tary Hay were examined, a protocol
concerning the day’s ceremony signed
and other formalities concluded. ’
These preliminaries took some time,
so that it was nearly 3:30 before the
actual exchange began. The signing of
the protocol of exchange occurred at
3:28 p. n1., Embassador Cambon signing
for Spain and Secretary Hay for the
United States. The protocol was in
French and briefly recited the circum-
stances leading up to the exchange.
This cleared the way for the exchange
itself, constituting the final act. The
president took from the desk the Amer-
ican copy of the treaty, handsomely en—
grossed, bound in dark blue. morocco
and incased in a black morocco port-
folio, and handed it to Mr. Cambon. At
the same time M. Cambon handed to
the president the English copy of the
treaty, also engrossed, bound in m0—
rocco and incased in a maroon colored
morocco box. There were deferential
bows as each received from the other
this final pledge of peace. This exchange
of ratificatio‘ns occurred at 3:35 p. m.
The effect of the action taken is to
'completely renew the peaceful relations,
trade, official, diplomatic, consular and
in all other ways, between this country
anzl‘Spain.

TVASHINGTON, April 12.-—-The selec-
tion of Bellamy Storer for the Madrid
mission is a distinct promotion in the ' _

having been born in Cincinnati in 1847.
He was graduated from Harvard in
1867 and two years later from the law
school of Cincinnati college. He was

and until he entered public life as a
member of the Fifty-second congress
from the First Ohio district gave his
time to the pursuit of his profession.

congress and was a member of the for-
eign affairs committee. 1'

. so far as she is concerned, one of th.
most notable cases that ever came be-
fore the Fairfield county courts. The
trial has not only attracted attention all
over this country, but also abroad, as
did the finding of the dismembered
body of Emma. Gill in the Yellow Mill
pond last September and the long chase
before Mrs. Guilford was arrested in
London and extradited.
Of the many surprising and unexpect—
ed developments since the case opened,
however, probably nothing occasioned
more surprise than .its abrupt"ending
yesterday afternoon, when a plea of
manslaughter was accepted by Judge
Wheeler. who imposed the'maximum
prison penalty with the minimum fine
of $1 and costs.
To the request of the counsel for the
defense that clemency be granted Judge
Wheeler said that in accepting the plea
of manslaughter he thought the court
had shown sufl‘icient clemency.

despite her impaired health there was
no scene. In a voice that had not the
slightest tremor she replied in response
to the court, “Guilty of manslaughter.”
She heard her sentence without falter-
ing and resumed her seat after the or-
deal without the slightest evidence of
emotion.
Harry Oxley, Eudora Guilford, Harry
Guilford and Rose Drayton, who are
charged with manslaughter as accesso-
ries after the fact, will not be given a
trial until the May term of the court.

G. H. CBAPPELL, Gm Pm, 11.1..
“ For several years my health was
miserable. I suffered the most. dread-
ful pains, and was almost. on the verge
of insanity. I consulted one of the
best physicians in New York, and he
pronounced my disease a. fibroid tumor,
advising an operation without delay,
- saying that it was my only chance for
life. Other doctors prescribed strong
and violent medicine, and one said I-
was incurable, another told me my
only salvation was galvanic batteries,
Which I tried, but nothing relieved me.
One day a friend called and begged me
to try Lydia E. Pinkham' 5 Vegetable
Compound. I began its use and took
several bottles. From the very first
bottle there was a. wonderful change
:for the better. The tumor has disap-
peered entirely and my old spirits have
returned. 'I heartily recommend your
medicine to all suffering wome'n.‘

When anything stands a test of over sixty years among a discriminating
people like the Americans, and steadily increas es in sale, it is pretty good
evidence that there is merit somewhere. Such is the record of Brandreth’s
Pills. ' ‘
In 1836, one year after they were introduced into the United States,
135,000 boxes were sold; and in 1897, 1,123,097 boxes were sold in this
country alone, not to speak of the large and increasing sales throughout the
world, where they have been on sale since Ina—nearly one hundred and
thirty years. Does’m this speak volumes for the virtues of Brandreth’s Pills 2
That they actually perform all that is claimed for them, is conclusively
proved by the fact that those who regard them with the greatest favor are
those who have used them ll: e longest.
Brandrcth s Pills are pu1ely vegetable, and are made of the highest class
goods obtainable. Flor two 3cars every pill lies' in the storehouse before it is
put on sale. T1135 lloxvs the medicine to mellow and soften, and explains
why the cathartic action of Brandreth’s Pills' 15 so certain and so easy. The
system ncvcr becomes inured to them, they can be taken indefinitely, and if
stopped.at any time, the funcnons will proceed to act in a natural manner.
They are the safest medicine to take yourself and the safest to give your
L children. Sold throughout the world, both plain and sugar coated.
