THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

bimpllcity of tlio combination, Imt nlso
to tliu care and slclll with which It is
manufactured by scluntlGc processes
known to tho Camfohnia Via Syuvv

all the importance of purchasing tho
truo and original remedy. As tho
genuine Syrup of Vgn is manufactured

assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. Tho high standing of the Cali
fornia Via Svuup Co. with the medi

which tho genuino Syrup of Vigs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of tho Company a guaranty
of tho excellence of Its remedy. It is
far in advance of nil other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and

Madrid, Auc. 20. El I.lbernl pub
IIhIiph rcmnrks made by Scnor Sapasta
on the diplomatic and political situa
tion, quoting the premier as follows:
"From a lepnl point of view tho pres
ent statp of things Is neither peaco nor
war, but merely a BUspenHlon of hostil
ities. An nrmlstlce would have allowed
us to dispel better the obscurity of the
sltuatlun, but tho United Stntea de
clined to agree to our making a step
further In advance.
Tlio questions to be solved arc nu
merous nnd, complex. What we hav
done first Is to, lay down certain basss,
n which each minister may make nny
observation which study of the subject
suggests. Those will continue to bo
treated In dally cabinet councils, it
elng held that the bases In question
re the fundamental Instructions for
the guldan.ee of the various commls-
lons lu the forthcoming negotiations,
to be supplemented, and rectified sub
sequently by telegraph.
In Cuba, besides evacuation, then;
are many other problems. Spain may
abandon her sovereignty over the
greater Antilles, but there will remain
tho question of edifices and all our
properties. There are lawsuits before
.e tribunals affecting the Interests of
tho Spaniard!). Where nnd when wl'l
these be decided? In Havana, where
a large number of criminals have been
condemned by Spanish tribunals, what
to be done with them? Then there
nre other questions for which we have
o II x a basis of discussion and agree
ment, regarding the Philippines. 13e
sides these and other problems of
greater Importance there Is a prellm-
nnry question to be discussed.
According to International law a
suspension of hostilities hns been sign
ed and the surrender of Manila ought
o have no legal elllcacy. How will that
principle be understood by the United
States? This causes us much apxlety.
and we give It great attention, but we
nre still awaiting the Information de
manded from General Jaudenes, which
has not renched us, on account of the
dllllcultlcs of communication between
Manila nnd Hong Kong."
These remarks have all the appear-
a,1cetiiJieJj3C nuthentlc, as they are In
accord with Inforrnntlon from other
sources nnd In h a nn o n y w 1 1 fT Senor.Sa
gasta's usual style.
The public Is still anxious for an ex
planation of Governor General Augus
tus mysterious departure from Manila,
but Its curiosity Is not likely to be sat
isfied for some time, the government
declining to say anything.
It Is rumored that the government
will Instruct the Cuban commissioners
to present a strong case for the recog
nition of Spain's claim for compensa
tion for the cession of public works
In Cuba, the compensation to take tho
form of saddling upon Cuba the bulk
of the Cuban debt existing In 1835.

The lnmntes were taken down Mor

London, Aug. ; Tho Dally Mull's
Biarritz correspondent says: A mani
festo by Don Carlos is announced 'to
appear shortly. The Spanish ministers
asset t that the pretender will not be
able to Mud enough money to tun a rev
olution, and will be forced to postpone
the rising until next spring. There are
signs, however, that Don Carlos will
not wait so long. Meanwhile the Span
ish government will Increase Its pre
cautions to prevent nny outbteak of
Carllsm. Though the censorship will
prevent the publication of the fnct It
cannot keep It secret that small armed
bands nre uppeuring and disappear
ing dally In various parts of Spain,
showing a general state of fermenta
tion born of Impatience with the pres
ent condition of things. The work of
funatlcal republicans and Carlists Is
being helped by the general misery and
by the prevailing Irritation against thu
government.
Within the Inst few days a carabineer

arms dutlng the night from a barge
near Tarragona. The civil guard ur
rcsted four men who were cui tying 12
old guns.
The Casllllon band still continues Its

In n field near Alganlces, In th i

corporal and two privates of cara
blneers who had been murdered prob
ably by men smuggling arms from
Portugal, were found yesterday, and
close by another carabineer, who was
almost dead. Their weapons had dls

are only sporadic, and nothing like a

Manila Will Itlval Hong Konp;.
Paris, Aug. 19. The American posl
tlon In the far east is attracting great
attention. The Soleil says: "The
Americans will quadruple the value of
the Philippines, nnd Manila will become
the rival of Hong Kong. The United
States will have a preponderating sit
uation In Chinese waters. There Is no
market they desire more eagerly than
the Chinese, and though thev have
been foiestalleif by other powers they
will assuredly overtake their rivals by
the rupldlty of their progress In that
region, nnd In the coming break up of
the Chinese empire the United States
will not be content- with the worst
fortunes for their heritage."

terday's orders Include IS more ships.
Before the orders began Issuing there
were eight warships nt Fort Monroe,
so that the total up to today Is 57.
Those Included In yesterdny's orders
are the Newport, Rodgers, Lebanon,
Wampatuck, Morris, Grim, Lancaster,
Mnclilas, Osceola, Peoria, Mnssasolt,
Sioux, Cheyenne, Wnbnn, Chickasaw,
Helena, Detroit and Yankton. The
ships previously ordered are mainly
smnll croft, although there are n num
ber of largo cruisers and gunboats, In
cluding the San Francisco, Helena, De
troit, Topeka, Marietta and Custlne.
The movement of these ships north
ward Is due to the close of hostilities,
and more particularly to the desire to
get the ships away from points of pos
sible fever Infection. They will now be
put in thorough repair, and their crews
will be graduully changed from naval
militiamen to sailors of the regular
navy.
The navy department has not yet
determined what ships will go to Ha
vana, San Junn and other points of
Cuba and Potto Rico. There Is felt to
be no hurry about this until the au
thority of the United States is fully
established throughout the Islands. In
the meantime the matter of policing the
shore points Is being considered, nnd in
due time a number of the light draught
nuxlliary craft and some of the single
turreted monitors will be used for this
coast patrol. It Is found, however, that
only four of the old monitors of the
civil war are lit for this service In
southern waters.
As many nnval vessels will bo cen
tered about the West Indies from this
time forward, the navy department will
send the new floating dock recently
bought In New York down the coast to
Peusacola, Fin., whore it will be kept
for docking the warships. At that
point also there are good naval work
shops to be used in conjunction with
the floating docks. The dock Is now
being coppered, untlwwlll be towed to
Pensarola as soon as the September
gales are over.
There were few developments of Im
portance In the post war situation yes
terday. Tho authorities nre still wait
ing for General Merrltt's report on the
list of casualties, and the state, war
and navy departments are interested in
knowing the exact terms on which
Manila was surrendered whether the
city alone, or If the Philippines were
included. It was stated by officials
that nothing additional on this point
had been received up to the close of
ofllce hours yesterday.
The efforts to restore the Manila
cable continue, but they have not prov
ed successful thus far. The claim made
In Madrid that the protocol, and not
the capitulation, controls the status of
affairs In the Philippines will not be
discussed by state department olllclals.
The Madrid discussion Is looked upon
as rather academic, as It Is tnken for
granted that claims will be made on
both sides, and that the Paris tribunal
will be the final arbiter of the case.

Washington, Aug. 19. Admiral Cer
vera will not return to Spain for the
present, and reports from Annapolis
stating that he left yesterday en route
are said at the navy department to bo
due to misapprehension. The admiral
has made no application to leave, and
it Is the belief that he will be tho last
of the Spanish pilsoners to go home,
as he has shown a fatherly regard for
all the other officers and men, and ap
pears to be desirous of seeing them
on their way homeward before he
leaves.

Hong Kong, Aug. IV. A dispatch
from a correspondent at Manila, con
firming the eaptute of the town, says
the American troops now occupy every
position formerly held by the Span
lards, of whom 6,000 are prisoners. Not
a stntle shot was Hied at the fleet.
The dispatch also says that Admiral
Dewey picked up the end of the sev
ered calile on Friday, hut that the line
is not yet In working order. Merchant
men are leaving Hong Kong dally for
Manila. A great rush of trade Is ex
pected. A belated dispatch from Manila,
dated Aug. S, explains that Governor
General Augustl had not "quite abdi
cated," and says:
"The governor general only declined
to be re-innslble for tho consequences
when he rvund that Spain was not
sending hliihelp. He retreated his
position, but f-factlcally washed his
hands of the lighting. A Madrid dis
patch construes this uVinsubordlnatlon,
and The Gazette will iKnv publish an
order to supersede him. n

possibly, assistance in securing a fa-
vorable termination.
"A telegram arrived Sunday ordering
the Americans to proceed Immediately
to extremities, whereupon Generul Mer
rltt and Admiral Dewey Issued an ul
timatum allowing 48 hours for the re
moval of non-combatants, but declar
ing that they would begin the bom
bardment earlier If the Spaniards made
any uttack. The governor replied Im
mediately, thanking the American
commanders for their humane senti
ment, but saying they were 'useless,
because he was surrounded with rebels
and had no place of refuge for the
great number of sick and wounded and
women and children.'
"The governor thereupon convened
the consuls, begging them to use their
influence with the Americans to get
them to grant him time nnd facilities
for the removal of the refugees and
suggesting the use of the American
troopships, but he was unwilling to
allow them food from Manila, He
seemed Indifferent to tho fate of the
100.000 natives.,
"The British consul made a powcr'ul
appeal to the governor to surrender,
glorifying the heroism hitherto shown
by the Spanish, but demonstrating the
hopelessness of further resistance. The
other consuls Indoised his uppeal, with
tho exception of the German consul,
who said that, ns a military officer, he
should hesitate to say that the Span
iards hnd done enough yet,
"A Spanish commercial deputation
waited upon the governor nnd begged
him to surrender, saying that otherwise
they would lie utterly ruined, The civil
members of the council of war favor d
surrender, but the military members
do not care to Indorse such a request,
"Ofllcers say they realize the futility
of teslstlng tho Americans who, with
their superior guns, can keep at long
range nnd kill everybody, without loss
to themselves, with, probably a dozen
shells.
"The Ilrltlsh consul promptly ar
ranged for four launches, under a white
Hag, to remove Ilrltlsh subJeotH . nd
also for one launch for the Chinese.
Swarms of Spunlsh and native half
caste women nnd children are begging
