SPAIN'S PEACE PUNS.
Premier Sagasta Says Negotiations'
Havo Boon Bogun.
BTATEMENT BY SENOR GOMAZA.
Tho Minister or l'ubllu Instruction
111 tliu Simtlltli Ciitilnot Sn.VH tliu Oiv
oriiiiieiit'.i Policy It to "ConuliiUo
ill llounriililo Penuo."
Madrid, July 23. The minister ot
public Instruction, Sunor Oamuzo, Is
authority for the statement that peace,
honorable to the Spanish army, will
shortly be concluded. In n Interview
In the Correspondenzla Milttnlr, organ
of the army, Senar Gomaza Is quoted
as suylng:
"The suspension of constitutional
liberty cannot be agreeable to the
press, because It abrogates freedom
and prevents the publication ot news
which costs much. Hut at this moment
what can tho government do but check
the hostile campaigns waged against
It? 1 was the Hist to beg the cabinet to
treat the question as urgent, and I do
not regret my action. I will say from
my seat In parliament that I am con
vinced t did a real service to my
country.
"At tho same time I can give you
news which will please the press. The
suspension of the constitution will not
last long, for several reasons. One of
them Is the calmness displayed by the
people and the army. It Is not for me
to conceal the Intentions of the gov
ernment, which are to conclude an
honorable peace which will, In the first
place, satisfy the aspirations of the
army. After that, if Senor Sagasta
should think it lit, he will ask thci
queen regent if she still has confident.'!
In her present advisers." I
Sertor Sagasta told a representative
of El Imparcial yesterday that the gov
ernment had already entered upon the
preliminary stace of peace negotia
tions. General Polavle.la has arrived an
will have an audience with the quef
regent this nfternoon. 1
The arrival of General Pollvaeja has
Increased the persistent talk of a cabi
net cilsls. The queen regent Is credited
with exclaiming "Thank God!" when
she knew he was coming. Opinions dif
fer as to whether a semi-military cabi
net would make for peace or for con
tinuance of the war, but all are agreed
that It would at any rate put an end
to the preFcnt vacillating policy. Cer
tainly considerable confidence Is felt In
General I'olavleja, In the present dif
ficult juncture. The belief Is current In
Madrid that the delay In Commodore
Watson's starting Is due to a desire to
give General l'olavleja time to form n
cabinet and to sue for peace.
The directors of the leadlns news
papers waited upon Senor Sagasta, the
premier, late yesterday nfternoon and
urged him to abolish the existing state
of selge and censorship.
According to a dispatch from Hong
Kong, the insui gents attacked Manila,
but were repulsed with a loss of TOO,

A dispatch from San Juan de Porto

How to Look Good.
Good looks are really more than skin deep,
depending entirely on a healthy condition of
all the vital organs. If the liver be inactive,
you have a bilious look ; if your stomach lie
disordered, you have a dyspeptia look ; if
your kidneys be affected, you have a pinched
look. Secure Rood health, and you will surely
have good looks. "Klectric Hitters" is a good

W. hliigti'ii. July23. There were sev
nul i vints uf Interest It not of Import
ame at the war nnd navy departments
yisti-idiiy. neiiernl 'Anderson, at Ca-vltcM-nt
u tncsBHse sayliiR that Aguln
aldu had declared a dictatorship and
mnrtlnl law over the Philippines, some
thing that cave the cabinet food for
consideration at their regular meetlngr.
There was no disposition to force any
Issue with the insurgent chief at this
time, but It Is pietty well understood
that he will not be allowed to commit
the I'nlted States eovernment In the
future treatment of the Philippines.
The visit of the German ambassador
to the president and to the secretary
of state was a busls for a belief that
he had called to make some representa
tion on the subject, and perhaps as well
on the question of peace as affected by
the program laid down by Watson's
projected voyage to ISuropean waters.
If so no oflklal confirmation was ob
tainable, and "a friendly visit" was the
only explanation offered.
It would not be surprising If it should
develop that strong European Influ
ences are being brought to bear to dis
suade the navy department from dis
patching Watson's tleet to Europe. But
so far they appear to have been In
effectual, for it is officially stated that
the depaituro of tho squadron Is only
delayed, not abandoned.
The most agreeable event of the day
was the arrival at Jho navy department
of Lieutenant Ilobaon, the hero of th3
Mertimac. The olllelals were not In
formed of his apjiroaclilnK visit except
through the newspapers. Consequently
when he reached the railway station at'
2:3S o'clock In the afternoon there wui
no olllclal there to meet him, aud hi i
reception was truly democratic. He
succeeded In escaping observation as he
passed through the train shod, coat aittl
umbrella In hand, followed by a nortu'
proudly carrying his bag, but before
he emerged from the station some on
spied him. a hooray went up from one
throat close 'iy, and in a moment thu
station was surrounded by a shouting
crowd. The cry of "Ilobson. I'.bson."
rang out, and the crowd close0 about
him, shaking his hand and pushing hlin
about until he wus rescued by the po
lice and escorted to a carriage. lTe
stopped long enough to announce thai
all of tho men who formed the crew of
the Merrlmac were safe and in the best
of health.
The offlcer was driven at once to the
army and navy club and. after brush
ing hlnin'lf up, he drove over to the
navy department. As he approached
the ofllce of the secretary of the navy
there was another demoustratlon. A
large crowd had gathered about the
doorway, and the lMarty welcome It
gave the young oillcer brought blushra
to his cheek?. Secretary long came out
of his prhate ofllce and giasplng Hob
son with both hands said with sin
cerity: "Lieutenant, I am glad, very
glad, toree you." Then he drew him
into Ills olllce. where the lieutenant was
Introduced to Assistant Secretary Allen
and was greeted by Captain Crownln-
shleld. Captain Uradford and Pension
Commissioner Kvans. who happened to
drop In. He spent half an hour in con
ference with the secretary and then re
turned to the club.
Secretary Long stated that Hobson
did not bring the long expected repot t
from Admiral Sampson and his brother
ollleers on the destruction of the Cer
vera lleet. The exact purpose of his
visit was to report to the secretary of
the navy regarding the work upon the
Cristobal Colon. "When this duty is
completed," Admiral Sampson's order
reads, you will ask lor orders trom the
secietary of the navy. Otherwise you
will return to duty on board the New
Yoik."
About 5:00 o'clock Lieutenant Hob
son went to the White House to pay
his respects to the president. Secretary
Lonsr accompanied him. The president
gave Lieutenant Hobson a most cordial
greeting and paid him a high tribute
for what he retarded as one of the
most conspicuous acts of gallantry In
the history of naval warfare.
Lieutenant Hobson returned to New
Yoik last night to confer with wreck
ing companies' agents. In a few days
he returns to Cuba to resume his work
nn the wrecking of the Spanish vessel-!.
The brief report from Admiral Samp
son deflating the success of the ex
pedition to Nlpo Is really more Impor
tant than appears on the surface. The
liay of Nlpp lies on the noith coast of
Cuba, almost directly across the Island
from Santiago. It Is purposed to estab
lish a base there which will save at
least twb days time In getting supplies
Into Cuba as compared with the San
tiago route. It will also form a good
point of operations against Holguln,
not far distant, and If It should De
velop, unfoi tunately, that a restraln
lim hniid must be laid upon the Cubans
themselves Nlpe. In connection with
Santiago would be nn effective means
of doing this. The war department has
not yet been informed that fleneral
Shaffer's Cuban allies have quit the
American lines, but it Is scarcely
doubted that such Is the case, for the
friction has been Browing more pro
nounced every day since the fall of
Santiago, and It Is feared that a sev
erance of relations ennnot be longer
avoided. That the Cuban Junta Is still
hopeful of avoiding such a measure i?

It is a blessed period
In a woman's life when
a dear little stranger
comes driving down
out of cloudland to
make its home in her

own sufferings; and per

her dread that its atti.ic

stroyed by maternity.
Hut as a matter of fact
when a woman is m pei
fect health and condi
tion, motherhood should
only serve to enhance
and accentuate her phy
sical attractive-lie si. Kv
ery expieUint mother
should know and avail
herself of the health-giving, ncre-totnng
properties of Dr. Pierce's Favorite In
scription. It gives specific strength and
endurance to the orgatiinn of maternity;
promotes thorough, healthy, constitutional
vigor and recuperative energy. It makes
motherhood safe and comparatively com
fortable; insures the baby's perfection and
preserves the mother's buoyant spiiitaud
womanlv attractiveness.
