SGENURAL IiAWTOX COMPELLED TO
‘.EVACUATE FOR LACK OF MEN.
'CAMPAIGN WAS VERY
-
--Oenc,‘at Give. IJp Captured Ground In
the Philippines With Much
lteliictanre.
A dispatch to The New York World
from Manila says:
Major Lawton, at Faite, authorized
The W’orld correspondent to make the
following statement: “The present
prospects are that 100,000 troops will
be needed to pacify the Philippine
islands.”
General Lawton’s expedition has
been ordered to Manila and will return
there immediately. All the territory
he captured will be evacuated and all
the launches will be restored to their
original owners—that is to say, they
will be given back to the persons from
whom Aguinaldo’s soldiers took them.
After giving the opinion that 100,-
000 men would be required to subdue
these islands, General Lawton ex¬
plained the situation to the World
correspondent as follows:
“The difficulties in the way are
those of fighting guerrillas iu a tropi¬
cal country. With my brigade I could
force my way from one end of the
island to the other if I did not have
to hold the territory I traversed. But
leaving garrison behind would soou
eat up the whole force.”
General Lawton regretted exceed¬
ingly being compelled to evacuate the
territory he had captured.
Campaign Not a Failure.
At the war department it is stated
Monday that the return of General
Lawton from his expedition does not
indicate the failure of his campaign,
but that it is evident that he has ac¬
complished all that he attempted—the
capture of the gunboats aud the driv¬
ing the rebels out of Santa Cruz.
When he left Manila General Lawton
took rations for ten days only.
THE RALEIGH AT HOME.
One of Dewey’s Ships Parades Before an
Enthusiastic Crowd of New Yorkers.
A New York dispatch says: The
celebration attending the return of the
United States cruiser Raleigh from
Manila, which bad to be postponed
Saturday owing to the warship’s late
arrival, occurred Sunday.
The Raleigh, accompanied by two
small vessels capitured from the Span¬
iards last summer aud a fleet of about
twenty-five excursion steamers and
tug-boats, paraded from Tompkinsville
to Giant’s tomb, aud from there back
to anchorage iu the North river off
Twenty-fourth street.
It would have been difficult to have
selected more inclement or disagree¬
able weather than that which prevailed
all the time the Raleigh was passing in
review before the thousands of enthu-
aiastic people who lined the river banks
and gave their hearty cheers of wel-
come home.
Great crowds assembled in River¬
side Park, overlooking the Hudson,
and men, women aud children stood
there for hours under umbrellas
watching the vessels on their way up
the river and on their return. Far the
greatest gathering of people was iu
the vicinity of Grant’s tomb, which
was the turning point of the parade.
A national salute was fired there by
the Raleigh, aud also by the captured
Spanish prizes,and the scene was ren¬
dered a memorable one by tbe shriek-
ing of a hundred steam whistles from
excursion boats and locomotives and
cheers from thousands of people on
shore and on the vessels in the river.
The executive committee in charge
of the preparations for the annual re¬
union of the United Confederate Vet¬
erans, that is to be held in Charleston
May 10th, 11th and 12th, was officially
notified Monday by Secretary Long,of
the navy department, that the Raleigh
had been ordered to that port for re¬
union week.
The cruiser will prove a great at¬
traction to the thousands of confeder-
ate veterans who will be iu the city at
that time, and an ovation will be ex-
tended Captain Coghlan and crew.
The officers of the Raleigh will be
1 entertained at a public banquet during
s their stay iu Charleston.

THE COUNT AT VARIANCE.
Cuban Muster Roll Shows 48,000; Ameri¬
can Figures are 13,319.
The Cuban army muster rolls, which
were delivered to Governor General
Brooke, through Senor Domingo Men¬
dez Capote, aro prepared in new cleri¬
cal style, the 1,200 broad sheets show¬
ing on their face 48,000 names—6,000
commissioned officers and 42,000 non¬
commissioned officers and privates.
The United States military author¬
ities make no attempt to reconcile the
42,000 non-commissioned officers and
privates indicated by these rolls with
the 13,219 given in the estimates pre¬
pared under the direction of tho pro¬
vincial governors.
THE PARTY STILL LIVES.
Tellur and Sh:ifroth Issue Addresses to
Silver Republicans of the West.
Senator Henry M. Toller and Con¬
gressman John H. Shafroth have
issued addresses to the voters of Col¬
orado and adjoining states denying
that the silver republican parly is dis¬
integrating.
They hold that the necessity for tlie
party is just as great for the next cam¬
paign as it was for the last, and pro¬
nounce absurd tbe statements that the
members of the party aro going to the
old parties.

Wt % the well-known laxative remedy. Syrup of Figs, manufac¬ T*
tured by-the California Fig Syrup Co., is used by many who
are enjoying good health and by many others who are seek-
ing health, and this is true to so great an extent that it is 1
often called the remedy of the healthy. The excellence of
f Syrup ol' Figs is due not only to the originality and sim¬

to the California Fig Syrup Co. Therefore we wish to im- t]
press on all the importance of accepting the true and
original remedy only. When buying note the full .name— n
California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on tlie front of every
package, as there arc many imitations sold under similar
names and the imitations are really injurious to the sys-
tern. The true and oiiginal remedy, Syrup of Figs, is maim-
factured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and when you %

'The better class of druggists are men of high integrity, lil
attending strictly to business day and night and willing to
make great sacrifices, if necessary, to supply their custom¬ i
ers with the best of everything In their line, knowing the
importance to henltli of doing so, and valuing the patronage m
of their friends and Jpatrons and desiring their confidence.
Druggists of that class do not try to sell something else
when you ask for Syrup of Figs. They give you the genuine
remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only.
% When desiring physicians’ prescriptions filled, or pure drugs
< £3* and chemicals, proprietary medicines and fine toilet articles, &
you may rely upon them; but as in other callings some black i

will try to impose upon well informed £
Uioy can. and in order that all who are may
know them and avoid them we are publishing the facts.
