Wliolher Ho Will Allow Hit Force to Itu-einliiirk WIumi Ailmlrnl Dew c.v'm Itotnrort'onioiitM Arrlvo It tlio Main Question. London, June 23. The Dally News publishes a ntntcment, alleged to come from a correspondent having ncess to good Information, that the occupation of Manila by parts of the crews of foreign warships there Is an ac complished fact, although It may prob nhly be three or four dnys before tlm oflHItil news arrives by way of Hong Kong. The communication proceeds to cay: "Over a month ago Admiral Dewey prepared to bombard Manila. At this Juncture, however, a new factor was ndded to the situation. The German consul, acting on precise Instructions which had Just nrrlved by the German warship Irene, strongly opposed a bombaidnient. These Instructions were clear nnd categorical, and emanated di rectly from Hmperor William's cabi net. "It was then that Admiral Dewey asked for reinforcements and supplied Agulnaldo with nrms. While Germany gathered a naval force the Intention at Dcrlln was, If not to take possession of Manila, lit least to co-operate In the landing, Admiral Dewey's force not be ing suinclont to protect German In terests. Captain General Augustl had on his part Informed his government of the situation, and several Interviews took place at Madrid with the German ambassador, the result being that It was decided that Captain General Au gustl should appeal to the foreign war ships at Manila, excluding the Ameri can, to protect the lives and property of the Inhabitants against the Insur gents. "It was an Indirect way of rapltulat Ing, while sparing Spanish amour propre. There is no doubt Admiral Von DltMlerlrhs has taken command of the forces landed, although he has not taken possession In behalf of Germany. But will he, when the American re inforcements arrive, be willing to allow his forces to re-embark? The whole question lies there." The Berlin correspondent of The Times, commenting on the continued discussion of the Philippines question, says: "There would be a storm of In dignation in the German press if the United States were to become master of the Philippines while Germany got nothing. In the view of many Ger man politicians anything would be better than that, and they would even prefer to see the Intervention of sev eral Kuropean powers to protect the life and property of their subjects from the rebels, followed by the acquisition of a naval stntlou for each of them. There Is, In fact, a strong inclination to repeat the Chinese drama at Klao-Chou whenover an oppoitunlty Is afforded. Relatively to what Germany already possesses she has everything to gain by such a policy of fair shares all around. "There is, however, but little doubt that no European power or combina tion of powers would venture to pre vent the United States nnd Great Hiltain from settling the futuro of the Philippines conjointly, or at least under the protection of their conjoint naval forces. Continental opinion would not only speedily acknowledge the strength of an Anglo-American naval alliance, but would be practically unanimous against Incurring the risk of the commercial consequences of a bieach with the United States."

Barn: "El Hri-Hldo Do Madrid aaya that the bov erntnent supprepped th chief part of the dispatch ot the governor ot Santi ago de Cuba (General 1,1 n area) de tailing the forcen, means of defence and provisions at his disposal. The Impres sion In political and military circles la that Important news Is Imminent from Santiago. It Is generally expected that the Americans will attempt a bom bardment ot the first line of defense? nt the mouth ot Santiago bay simul taneously with the landings to outllank the formications, If silenced by the fire of the fleet. Then, If successful, they will move forward with the assistance of the Insurgents for a decisive strug gle at the second line of defense In the Interior of the bay, where the Spanish fleet may be expected to co-operate with the defenders. "The resistance Is likely to be se vere and prolonged. Indeed, the Span lh naval anil military authorities aro hopeful that General Linares, with the garrison and the volunteers, recently considerably reinforced, may he able, barked by Admiral Cervera, to repel tho Americans, who would then be In a precarious position nn the most un hoalthful part of the coast. Santiago la provisioned for several weeks, and the authorities have taken possession of all the stores. The submarine defenses of the bay are, moreover, of a formldablo character." The Herlln correspondent ot The Standard says: "The queen regent ha i privately caused those sovereigns who arc her relatives to be directly sound ed, und those whom she regards as friends to be Indirectly sounded, as to whether they nre willing to mediate, but the stage of diplomatic negotia tions has not yet been reached, and It Is very doubtful whether It will bo reached for some time to come. "The senil-ofncial Post hears from Antwerp that persons commissioned by the Wushlngton government to enlist seamen on neutral soil are said to havu enlisted more than a thousand German sailors for the American navy and tho auxiliary cruisers. This would explain the dlfflculty German captains havi experienced of late In manning their ships." The Vienna correspondent of Tho Dally Telegraph says: "All the infor mation that roaches here from Madrid proves beyond a doubt that the posi tion of the queen regent has become altogether untenable and that her ma jesty will resign the regency within n very short period. It may prove feas ible to establish a regency council tin der arrangements fo the existing dynasty, but according to present 1.1 dlcations this appears questionable. In well Informed quarters here It Is be lieved that the next defeat for the Spaniards will upset the conditions prevailing In Madrid, where the situa tion Is already extremely confused."

The leuse ot the North American Commercial company, secured in 1890, gave It the exclusive sealing privileges of the 1'ribylof Islands for a period ot 20 years, and allowed It to take 100,000 seals a year, with a royalty of 87.62V& on each skin, and a revenue tax of $2 a skin. !i -!!( s a rental of $60,000 a year. After the agreement with Great Brit ain, in 1893, for the protection ot the seal herd the government notified the company that Its annual take must not exceed 7,500 head. From that time the company refused to pay the stipulated annual renlal and the royalties and revenue tax mi the seals taken. The government began three suits In the United States circuit court in this district to compel payment, and In June, 1896, Judge LaCombe rendered Judgment In the first suit for $94,687.54, wlt'i Intel ert, amounting to $107,257.20. The case wi appealed by the company to the United States court of appeals, and finally to the United States su preme court, which handed down the decision which Judge LaCombe has Just certified. The difference between the Judgment of the supreme court and the circuit court was In the amount of reduction In the annual rental of $60,000 which the company was to pay on ac count of the reduction in the number of seals It was allowed to take, the su premo court allowing a greater reduc tion than the circuit court.

Hough riders got Into a row In a disreputable house at Tampa. Fla, One woman was perhaps fatally shot. Five arrests were made. Adrain Bruin, the convict who killed his wife while she was visiting him in Sing Sing prison, was convicted In Ilrooklyn of first degree murder. The Auieu ! of niarriagt is always a baby. Without it, wedlock is a summer field that never blooms, a flower that never buds, a night without stars a sermon without a ben e d i c t i o n , a prayer without an Ameu. There never was a husband worthy of the name, who did not aspire to be the father and the giandfatlier of healthy, capable children to band down his name and the fortune accumulated by the sweat of his brow, from generation to generation. There never was a wife fit to bear that noble title, who did not wish to wear womanhood's most glorious crown, the sceptre of motherhood. Thousands of wedded couples, otherwise happy, fall short of wedlock's greatest happiness be cause they are childless. In the majority of cases, this is because the wife, through ignorance or neglect, suffers from weak ness aud disease of the organs distinctly feminine. For women who suffer in this way there Is one great medicine that does Hot fail to accomplish its purpose. It is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts directly on the delicate organs concerned and makes them strong, healthy, vigorous, virile and elastic. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones the shattered nerves. It fits for wifehood and motherhood. It quickens and vitalizes the distinctly feminine organism.
