SPANISH SOLDIERS DYING OF
YELLOW JACK AND SMALLPOX.
Tim Rainy Season is On, Rut the In¬
surgents Are Not Handicapped.
Advices from Havana are to the
feet that the dry season can be cousi&
ered practically closed. In Havant
the rams have been periodical for ttei.
last week, beginning at about 2 o’clooi.
in the afternoon and lasting until 6 <K
7 o’clock. In the country, from re¬
ports received all around, the rainfall
has been considerable. It is said that
the Majnna swamp, iorming the south¬
ern section of the troeha or military
line from Marie], has overflowed, and
that the trenches and ditches which had
been made have ail disappeared. In
consequence of this state of things the
military operations—at leust on the
Spanish side—have come to a stand¬
still. All the troops aremooped up in
the towns in the interior untouched
by the rebels, and the fortified cities
on the coast. No so with the insur¬
gents,for this is the appropriate season
for them, as it permits them to rove
unmolested throughout the country,
thus justifying their boasts that they
are the masters of the fields.
As a result of the climatic change
the terrible scourge—yellow fever—
has made its appearance, and it is said
is playing havoc to an alarming extent,
particularly with the troops. The gov¬
ernment tries to hide the truth, but
somehow it manages to leak out, and,
although no accurate data can be ob
tained, for no statistics are allowed to
be published, it is known that the
malady has extended all over the island
and the death rate is very great. In
some places as, for instance, the mili¬
tary line, it is known that there are
hundreds attacked with this terrible
malady, and that it is increasing daily
in alarming proportions. Smallpox
has .*lso made its appearance in many
towns and cities, especially in Sancti
Spiritus and Cieufuegoe, and in the
latter place ninety-six deaths occurred
last month, there being 136 cases now
on record.
That General Weyler has failed in
his Cuban campaign is admitted by
everybody, even the rabid Spaniards.
His unfitness to cope with the insur¬
gents is manifested daily. No out¬
ward demonstrations have been mad(
yet, but in private conversations da>
nunciations are made of his inability
to quell the revolution. Spaniards art
getting despondent, and the emigre
tion of their prominent leaders, in
eluding their boss, Santos Guzman, ii
significant as tending to show thi
loss of faith in their cause, which the;
now consider doomed.
The Madrid papers have already ini¬
tiated a campaign against Weyler.
Some are very bitter in their attacks,
as, for instance,La Paz recently started
to defend the autonomist solution for
Cuba. Another as the “Ejercito Es
panol” has attracted a great deal of at¬
tention on account of its high author
ity, it being tha organ of Generisf
Lopez Dominguez, ex-minister of waff,
the ablest general of the Spauish army.
It has published two leading editorial*
criticising Weyler’s tactics and
strongly defending General Berni
from the charges made against him is
the Cararajicara affair, which is judgai
very severely.
Lee Interviews Weyler.
Consul General Fitzhugh Lee visited
General Weyler Friday. The inter¬
view was cordial. In the course of the
conversation General Lee touched
upofl the case of Dawley, the corre¬
spondent of Harper’s Weekly, who
was arrested a few days ago and is now
confined in Morro castle. General
Weyler, it is said, promised that a
prompt investigation would be made
into the matter.
LOSS BY WIND AND RAIN.
Damage in Minnesota Will Amount to
at Least $300,000.
Reports received in St. Paul up to
11 o’clock Sunday midnight indicate
that the damage done by the great
storm of Saturday will reach fully
$300,000. The loss of human life is
not yet known, but three people are
known to have perished. These are
C. W. Castleton, of Ashlake; E. W.
Hunter, of Adrain, and Moses Chad¬
wick, of Nobles county.
There are at least 1,000 cattle, sheep,
hogs and horses drowned in south¬
western Minnesota. The greatest cas¬
ualties were at Lnverne and on Piock
river. Two cloudbursts struck the
latter in three hoars and the river
overflowed the country for miles.
Many people were forced to take to a
tree or to the roofs of their houses,
and a rescuing party was sent out from
Luverne. Tne current was so swift
that the rescuers were overturned and
themselves rescued with great diffi¬
culty.
A second party saved twenty or
thirty people who were in grave peril.
Many business houses were flooded in
Luverne. Across the border, in South
Dakota, at least 10,000 acres of grain
was ruined by flooding. Several bouses
and elevators were blown down at the
town of Chapel, S. D.
GROWTH OF THE SOUIL
The Industrial Progress as Reported
for the Past Week.
General business throughout the
south continues quiet, but manufac¬
turers are enlarging their plants and
getting ready for an active trade in the
fall.
Weakness characterizes the iron ant?
Bteel markets and prices are lower.
Since April 1 pig item has fallen more
than 5 per cent., but there has been a
slight advance on finished products.
The furnaces at South Pittsburg,
Tenn., will blow out today to remain
idle until prices advance. The Big
Stone Gap, Ya., furnace has blown
out and will be relined.
The lumber market shows no especial
change. Business is fairly good but
prices are still unsatisfactory. Cotton
mill building continues active.
Crop prospects in the south are
brighter because of recent rains and a
better feeling exists among sugar pro¬
ducers and handlers in Louisiana and
Texas.
Among the important new industries
reported for the week are the follow¬
ing: The Hartford Construction
Companv, Little Rock, Ark., capital
§250,000*; a §10,000 foundry and Shreve¬ ma¬
chine shop tf» be erected at
port, La., by W. K. Henderson; the
Greasy Creek Canal coal compauy,
Myrtle, Ky., capital $100,000; the
Postal Telegraph-Cable company, San
Antonio, Texas, capital $300,000; at
Hickory Grove, S. C,, the Hickory
Grove Manufacturing company, to
erect a $50,000 cotton mill, and the W.
G. Rngley Lumber company, capital
$50,(0), at Winnsboro, Texas.
There is also reported an electric
light and power company at Knoxville,
Tenn., flouring mills at LiDcolnton.N.
C., Luttrell, Tenn., and Alum Bridge,
W. Va.; elevator works at Columbia,S.
C.; a harness factory at Bristol.Tenn.,
and hay press factory at Houston,Tex.
Cotton mills will be established at
Lithia Springs, Ga., and Nesbit’s
Shoals, S. C., and woodworking plants
at Piedmont, Ala., New Orleans, La.,
and Ckeraw, S. C. Water works will
be put in at Tar boro, N. C., Trenton,
Tenn., and Barton Heights, Ya.
Among the enlargements reported
are lime works at Sherwood, Tenn. ;
cellulose work at Owensboro, Ky.;
slate mill at Arvonia, Va.; cotton mill
at Newport, Tenn. ; water works at
Waco, Tex., and lumber mill at Oga
maw, Ark.
The new buildings for the week in¬
clude a $16,000 court house at Whites
burg, Ky. ; a $300,000 depot at Mont¬
gomery, Ala. ; a $60,000 hospital at
Memphis, Tenn.; residence at Fall
River, N. C., to cost $10,000; a $12,
000 school building at Winston, N.C.;
at Little Rock, Ark., a $25,000 syn¬
agogue, and & large w%rehouse (Chat¬ at

THE PRESS AT ST. LOUIS.
Over Four Hundred Seats Reserved
for Correspondents.
A St. Louis special says: Arrange¬
ments have been made for the seating
of the press representatives in the na¬
tional republican convention and the
418 seats in the press stand have been
allotted among the metropolitan news¬
papers of the United States.
The United Press and Southern As¬
sociated Press and the Chicago Asso¬
ciated Press have been allotted six
6eats each on either side of the chair¬
man’s desk.
The papers of New York, Chicago
and St, Louis will get the greatest
number of seats each.
It has been decided to give to The
Journal, Sun, Herald, World and Tri¬
bune, of New York, six seats each.and
to The Brooklyn Eagle, New York
Mail and Express, Evening Post.Daily
News, Telegram, two or three seats
each.
Provisions have also been made for
seats for correspondents Haltimore of the leading
Philadelphia, and Boston
papers. The papers of the principal
interior citiee are also taken care of
on the basis of one or two seats, ac¬
cording to the size of the city and im¬
portance of the paper. The Chicago
newspapers will stand on the same
fobting as the St. Louis newspapers
in regard to distribution of corres¬
pondents’ seat 0 . Each St. Louis pa¬
per will be allowed six seats in the
press stand,but as a matter of courtesy
they will take the seats farthest re¬
moved from the chairman’s table.
Country papers will not find room
in the press stand, owing to the great
demand made upon the accommoda¬
tions by the metropolitan papers. An
effort has been made to secure one
hundred seats for the interior press of
Missouri, but it is not likely that it
will be successful. It will simply be
a question of room that must be met,
and the committee is already puzzled
to find accommodations for the men
from the big cities.
Last Cargo of Tobacco from Cuba.
The Ward liner Segnranca, which
arrived at New York Monday from
Havana, brought the last cargo of Ha
vans tobacco from Cuba which will ar¬
rive until Captain General Weyler’s
order prohibiting island the shipment shall have of been to¬
bacco from the
rescinded. The cargo consisted of
1,028 baleB and twelve barrels of leaf
tobacco.
Sow, What Can a Man Do?
Patient Man—Suppose a woman
makes it so hot for her husband that
he can’t live with her, what can bhe
do®
Lawyer—Sue him for support.
Patient Man—Suppose she has run
him so heavily into debt that he can’t
support her, because his creditors grab
every dollar as quick as he gets hold
of it, besides ruining his business with
their suits?
Lawyer—If for any reason whatever
he fails to pay her the amount ordered
he will be sent to jail for contempt of
court.
Patient Man—Suppose she drives
him out of the house with a flat-iron,
and he’s afraid to go back?
Lawyer—She can arrest him for de¬
sertion.
Patient Man—Well, I can’t see any¬
thing for me to do but go hang myself.
Lawyer—It’s against the law to com¬
mit suicide, and if you get caught at¬
tempting it you’ll be fined and impris¬
oned. Ten dollars, please. Good day.

Early Rising Insanity.
Blinks—Say, professor, do yon be¬
lieve in the theory that early rising
tends to insanity?
Professor Smart—Yes, I think there
is considerable truth in it.
Blinks—But a man to bo insane
must have a delusion of some sort.
Now, what particular delusion have
you ever known au early riser to be
afflicted with?
Professor Smart—The delusion that
he liked early rising.—New York

Pill Clothes.
Tho good pill has a good coat. The pill coat
serves two purposes; it protects the pill, en¬
abling it to retain all its remedial value, and it
disguises the taste for the palate. Some pill
coats are too heavy; they will not dissolve in
the stomach, and the pill3 they cover pass
through the system as harmless as a bread
pellet. Other coats are too light, and permit tho
speedy deterioration of the pill. After 30 years
exposure, Ayer’s Sugar Coated Pills have been
found as effective as if just fresh from the labor¬
atory. It’s a good pill with a good coat. Ask
your druggist for »-«
