London, May SO.-TheWaah. i ton correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, telegraphing Sunlay, says: <>l have just learned from a high authority in *he state de partment that important prelim ;nary steps toward an Anglo- American alliance have already been taken. How far these nego tiations, if they can be , called that, have proceeded, it is not e asy to ascertain, for, naturally, strict secrecy is maintained, but my information is that the pre liminary suggestions hr ve been made and that the subject of such an alliance is practically before the two governments in some shape. “The recent visits paid by Sir Julian Pauncefote to the state department have not, it seems, had reference altogether to the Canadian negotiations. features of the alliance. “According to my authority the features of the proposed alli ance now bein/ considered are these: “Great Britian is to recognize the Monroe doctrine ; to attempt no increase of her territorial possessions in the western hem isphere, and to endorse, the American construction of that doctrine. “The United States is to build the Nicaragua canal and Great Britian is to have the use of it in time of war. “The United States is to have all the territory taken from Spain in the present war and Great Britain is to protect the United States in this should pos session be threatened. •‘The United States is to HAND BY ENGLAND •Nz in her policy in China and the east and all the British ports in th« east are] to be opened to the Uni'ed States under the most favored nation clause. ”1 he main features of an arbi tralion treaty are to be incorpo rated.

The People Believe What They Read About Hood’s Sarsaparilla Their Faith in This Medicine is Grounded on Merit They Know it Absolutely Cures V/hen Other Medicines Fail Hood’s Sarsaparilla is not merely a sim jie preparation of Sarsaparilla, Dock Stillingia and a little lodide of Potassium.’ Besides these excellent alteratives, it also contains those great anti-bilious and liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion. It also contains those great kidney reme dies, Uva Ursi, Juniper Berries, and Plpsissewa. Nor are these all. Other very valuable curative agents are harmoniously com bined in Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and it Is carefully prepared under the personal sat ervision of a-regularly educated phar macist. Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith the people have in Hood’s Sarsaparilla a matter of surprise? You can see why Hood’s Sarsaparilla cures, when other medicines totally, absolutely fail. “My little girl was afflicted with czema and suffered for seven years. She was attended by physicians and tried many different kinds of medicine with >ut relief. After taking n few bottles of food’s Sarsaparilla she was cured.” Mrs. •Lmma Franklin, Honeoye, New York.

It proceeds on lines such, as th* foregoing. As a matter of course all jthat has been done so far is purely tentative, but my infor mant gives the above as the gener al outine suggested.” ANNOUNCEMENT.
