HOI LOOKING TO PORTO RICO NOW It Seems That Occupation of that Island is Not Scheduled. IT WOULD lit UNNECESSARY If Health of t roops Now Landed is Good, and Immediate Cuban Campa'gn Miy Follow. New York, June 22. -A special to the Tribune from Washington says: The project to occupy Porto Rico is now regard. I by the highest military au thorities. of both 'the army ami navy as practically removed from immediate con sMera-lion and unless the death rate of Oeneral Shafter’s army from disease in digenous to'Cuban soil is exceedingly high, the pr. s I. nt's desir< for the prosecution of a general agr. - ivc campaign through out the island of Cuba may be promptly entered upon 'tip moment Santiago is cap tured The "upgestion of a Porto Rican cam paign to precede tile invasion of ‘Cuba was put forth more than a month before Ad miral ‘Sampson bornl.ardtd San Juan and pending the um. itainey of the destination of c> i ver,.'; -.piadron, then several weeks at <a from Cape Verde. The unexpected diffieulti' met with in organizing the great army needed for tho Cuban cam paign. together with tho urgent warning delivered by medical experts against the advisability of exposing raw. unacclimated recruit- to the p. tilential climate of .Ha vana and ‘the sinorunding country, where the blockade condition were presum.d to be unusually favorable to a devastating scourge of yello.v fever compared with the comparative salubrity of Porto Rico and th. relatively small Spanish force holding that i-land, worked strongly to bring aboti'i the approval of the scheme 'to obtain con trol of- it as a war neeessaray. The desirable diplomatic point .suppos ed 'to be gained through actual occupation before Spain could sue for peace in defer ence to drotrg 'ptes-ure tn that direction which it was well known was being expec ted at IMadrld. gave no little weigh't to the project, ami preparations for its accom plishment went forward so energetically tha't. eten .Iler i'ervera had shirt himself up at Santiago and both Commodore Schley and Admiral Sampson bad confessed that an attempt to eject him would prove fit tile without the co operation of an army corps, the Porto Rican etvterprise was not abandoned, but was temporarily pushed aside by the more imperative necessity of sending Genif.il Shafter to Santiago as ex peditiously as possible. Hi fleet of transports had .barely sailed from Tampa last wek before many of the officials in Washington, in the absence of any countermanding of the original order for mobilizing the Porto Rican expedition, again took up its details and were hurry ing the preparations along on the original lines when General 'Miles returtjed and convinced 'the authorities that the best of military reasons existed for ■concentrating every r< -ource of the government, for the time being, at least, upon the support of General Shafter, whose campaign was of a more hazardous nature than had been generally .appreciated. Notwithstanding the excellent equipment and trained forces which had been provi ded in this army corps, the fact'that 15,000 men wore to he landed in a strange coun try in the lace of much more numorous forces, whose exact strength could only 'be estimated, will probably prove the crucial event of the whole war. Success may be expected to result it; Spain’s prompt reali zation ot the futility of further reslstence, while a serious reverse even of a tempo rary character might indefinitely prolong the duration of hostilities. The illusion that the actual .possession of Porto Rico constituted any valid advant age from an international law poin't, was speedily expelled by the citation of prece dents. the most recent of them being the acquisition by Japan of Formosa at the treaty of Simonoseki. although the island tHwfc^ v v\ Vsw /v j CvVfcxfl i/V f Al Eo K&O m : was in the possession of China at the close | of the war. I It was also made evident that the United States had absolute justification, which could not be combatted by neutrals, for exacting the surrender of Poto Rico by Spain as an indemnity against part ot the . cost of the war, especially as it was uni versally conceded that this government al ready had the power of eventually dictat i ing the terms of peace. In fact, if there existed any reasonable | argument for running the risk of sacriflc i ing General Shafter for the acquisition of Porto Rico, at present an altogether ineli gible element in war, it is yet to be sup ported with any telling weight in the opin ion of state department officials and mem-, bers of the diplomatic corps in Washing ton. It now appears to be conclusively settles] that no further attention will be paid to fl’or to Rico for the present unless kt de velops a stratgetic importance utterly un r- cognized at the present time. The effect of General Miles’ strenuous representations of the urgent military exigencies which d. mand immediate addition to General Shafter’s army are evident on all sides. The decision to send at least one regi ment of volunteers on the fast auxiliary cruiser Yale from Newport News on Thursday ,to be followed .by others on the Harvard a few days later and another bri gade from Camp Alger during the ensuing week, are fair instances of the success of his recommendations. A serious problem, whose solution was determined upon by the authorities today is that of the disposition of the vast num ber of prisoners which must fall into the American hands whenever Santiago capit ulates. The number is variously estimated all the way from 25,000 to 50,000 men, and as the United States will not permit 'them to suffer any avoidable hardships, provis ion has to be made at once for their main tenance. It has been definitely decided that they cannot be permitted to remain in Cuba, and it will therefore be necessary to pro vide a large number of transports to bring them to this country, where they may be more readily fid and guarded. This will require a much larger fleet of transports ■than that which carried General Shafter’s army, and considering the extreme diffi culty which the war department has al ready encountered in securing additional fleet under the impression that Porto Rico was still to be occupied, it is not foreseen where all the ships for the various enter prise; are to be secured. This emergency, however, must be met for the president has finally determined that no prisoners shall be permitted to remain in Cuba, and until after they are landed in this country and the transports can return to Santiago, General Shafter’s army and all the rein forcements 'that sent to him wlil be com pelled to remain there, unless 'the health conditions of the island warrant t'he issu ing of orders which might immediately start them westward along the route suc cessfully pursued by General Gomez two years ago in a single hand campaign in which their progress would be marked by gradual additions to forces from the va rious ports along 'the north and south shores, until the volunteer regiment now in camp at Chicamauga and other places to a number exceeding 100,000 men. were active participants in driving out the Spaniards and relieving the horrible con dition which compelled the declaration of war. I was seriously afflicted with a cough for several years and last fall had a more severe cough than ever before. 'I have used many remedies without receiving much relief, and 'being recommended to try a bottle of Cahmberlain’s Cough Rem edy by a friend, 'who, knowing me to be a poor widow, gave it to me. I tried it with the most gratifying results. The first bot tle relieved me very much and the second bottle has absolutely cured me. I have not had as good health for twenty years.

'Mr. Dave Wachtel, manager of the Star Clothing Company, has made a great hit with his advertising this summer, and he I has had the crowds with him for the past several weeks.

Ihe tortures of Eczema are indescribable. First, a-series of small water blisters appear, accompanied by a tingling, itching sensation; these burst, and the skin be comes dry and sometimes cracks and peels; the itching increases in severity and spreads over a larger surface, until it soon becomes almost unbearable. The rough, red skin seems to be ablaze, so intense is the suffering produced. Only disappointment results from the use of ointments, salves, etc., which are so generally resorted to for this disease. Eczema is a disease of the blood, and local applications can have no effect whatever upon it. They are good enough to allay temporarily the intense itching, but the disease continues to spread and increases in severity. It is during spring and summer that those afflicted with Eczema suffer most, al though they arc at no time entirely free from discomfort. The disease seems to break out afresh each spring, and every year seems to spread more, until in some cases the entire body is effected. Mr. E. D. Jenkins, of Lithonia, Ga., says that his daughter, Ida, inherited a severe case of Eczema, which the usual mercury and potash remedies failed to relieve. Year by year she was treated with various medicines, external applications and in ternal remedies, without result. Her suf ferings were intense, and her condition grew steadily worse. All the so-called blood remedies did not seem to reach the disease at all until S. S. S. was given, when an improvement was at once noticed. The medicine was continued with favor able results, and now she is cured sound and well, her skin is perfectly clear and pure, and she has been saved from what threatened to blight her life forever. The only cure is a real blood remedy—one which I I reaches obstinate and deep-seated diseases, and cures them permanently. The mercurial and potash reme ' dies of the doctors, aside from their harmful effects, do | | g jrl not reach the disease, and hence their inability to cure * ggg j s t h e on jy cure for Eczema, because it is the only blood remedy guaranteed purely vegetable, containing no potash, no arsenic, no mercury or mineral of any description. It is Nature’s own remedy and is not a drug-shop preparation. It cures Eczema and all other blood diseases of the most obstinate nature, no mat ter what other treatment hasfaikd, OWIIL O OjpvVlllVe FOR LIEUTENANT GENERAL'S JOB Committee Will Recommend the Revival of This Rank in the Armv. WILL GEN. MILES GET IT? It is Possible, However, that Shaf ter or Some Other Commanders May Earn the Big Plum. Washington, June 22—The house com mittee on military affairs have agreed on and favorably reported a joint resolution reviving the grade of lieutenant general in the army. It authorizes the president whenever he deems it expedient to appoint a lieutenant general to be selected from those officers in the military service distinguished for courage, skill and ability, the limitation in the bill as to choice from officers not below the grade of major general, being stricken out by the committee. The committee disclaim any idea of hav ing any single military command in view and assert the object i- to permit the se lection by the president to command armies of the United States if one should have higher rank than any other officer as essential to efficiency of management. While Major General .Miles has fre quently been urged for a lieutenant gen eralship the members claim that his name is no more than a suggestion and that the resolution leaves it open to the president whom he shall appoint, the appointee however, being the subject to confirma tion by the senate. It was pointed out by a ranking mem ber of the committee if there should be a battle at Santiago for instance in which General Shafter should figure and should perforin some heroic work he would stand a fair show for the coveted rank and so with other commanding officers on whose cases the selection might depend. The committee also favorably reported to the house the bill giving the adjutant general of the army, a post now held by General Corbin, the rank, pay and allow ance of a major general and a joint reso lution amending a former one and permit ting Colonel Anson Mills’ Third cavalry, to exercise the functions of boundary com missioner over the Mexican line the same as if he was performing such duty under military orders.

Legation at Washington Gives Out a Statement About Them. 'Washington, June 22—In reference to certain published statements the Turkish legation makes the following declaration: Mr. Wm. Armstrong, of DePere, Wis., writes: “I have suffered terribly for eight years with Eczema, at times all over my body, and no person can describe the burn ing and itching I had to endure. For three months I never laid down, but was com pelled to sit in my chair when not moving around. I was treated by the best of physicians with no success, used various local applications, and tried all the patent medicines recommended for Eczema with out any good results. I went to several celebrated medical resorts, but the disease shortly returned. I then tried S. S, S., and after three days the burning and itching subsided, and I continued to improve steadily until I was well—entirely cured. MACON NEWS WEDNESDAYiEVENING, JUNE 22 i8o«. I The frequent murders and pillages, com mitted by Christians of Merana, under the I instigation of .Montegrians exasperated the I muzzleman .population of the district and having forced them into reprisals, some altercations and disorders have occurred and during these disturbances a number of huts of villagers have been destroyed. Turkish troops sent immediately in suf ficient numbers to the spot at once re stored order. His majesty, the Sultan, in his feeling of grace and paternal solicitude towards his subjects without distinction of race or re ligion has magnanimously accorded full and complete amnesty to the persons im plicated in this affair and generously or dered the rebuilding of the destroyed huts and reinstallation into their old homes of the Christian inhabitants who had crossed over to iMontengro. A Turkish general has been ordered to make an inquiry into this affair and a Montegrinean delegate has been apppoint ed to join and assist him in order to in vestigate whether there was any fault on the part of Turkish or Montegrinean of ficials. STOVE ON THE ICE. British Steamer Sunk Off Coast of New foundland. St. Johns, N. F., June 22 —The 'British steamer Para, Captain Gansden, from Dunkirk for Tilt Cove to load copper for Swansea entered an ice flow off the mouth of Notre Dame bay on Saturday and was crushed, sinking within two hours. Her crew of twenty-one launched the boats and pushed through and over the floes to land, a tedious work which requir ed all night and arrived at Tilt Cove on Sunday afternoon after many hair-breadth escapes in the darkness. The report that the ice is unusually heavy and immense quantities, making navigation unsafe. The Para was an iron vessel schooner rigged and built at West Hartlepool in 1884. Free Ptllx.

Refugees From Cuba Say There is Plenty to Eat. Kingston, June 22.—Copyright.—The steamer Adula, which arrived here today from tCienfuegos brings 100 refugees, well to-do Cubans and 'Spaniards. They aver that the Spanish soldiers there are anxious for a fight but that the popu lace is disheartened by the long struggle. Food is no dearer now, they say, than it was a month ago; and while flour and meat are scarce, rice, fish and vegetables are abundant. Bad management keeps more people in poor circumstances than any one other cause. To be successful one must look ahead so that when a faworable opportun ity presents itself he is ready to take advantage of it. A little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the shift less fellow will wait until necessity com pels it and then ruin his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor’s bill to pay besides; one pays out 25c, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why his neighbor is getting richer while he is getting poorer.

WILL CONNECT WITH HONOLULU It is One of Consequences of Annexation of Ha waii. New York, June 22 —The passage by an overwhelming majority in the 'House of Representatives of the joint resolution for the annexation of Hawaii to the United States and the probability of like action in the senate, has caused a revival of in terest in the bill to provide for telegraphic communication between San Francisco and Honolulu, says the Washington cor respondent of the Tribune. Nearly everybody admits that the ac quisition of Hawaii will render the estab lishment and maintenance of such com munication necessary. Interest in the project has also been stimulated anew by the intelligence that the Hawaiian legislature has granted a franchise to the Pacific 'Cable 'Company to lay and maintain telegraphic communica tion between that country and Japan and China, the operation of said franchise be ing conditioned on favorable action by tbe congress of the United States within the next eighteen months on the bill now pending before it. This bill, which was reported from the committee on interstate and foreign com merce by iMr. Bennett, of New York, on March 8 authorizes the postmaster general to contract with the Pacific Cable Com pany for the payment to said company of not more than SIOO,OOO a year quarterly for twenty years for the construction and operation of a submarine cable for the transmission of messages of the United States from San Francisco to Honolulu and then to such points on the coasts of Japan and China as the company with the ap proval of the postmaster general may se- ( lect. Within fifteen days of the approval of the act the company must deposit with the postmaster general $250,000 in United States bonds to be forfeited to the United States in case of its failure to enter into oi fully pei form its contract. The friends of the measure are not hope- , ful of action by the house before next win ter unless the present session is prolonged to a date considerably later than is now expected, although they are strongly of the opinion that the work of establishing telegraphic communication between San Franciso and Honolulu should be begun as soon as annexation takes place and vigorously prosecuted to a speedy conclu sion. Two members of the committee on in terstate and foreign commerce, Messrs. Corliss, of Michigan, and Fletcher, of Minnesota, opposed a favorable report on the Pacific Cable bill, and filed a state ment of their reasons. It is understood that the committee is otherwise unani mously in favor of the measure. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought I AN OPEN LETTER To MOTHERS.
