The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength and building up the constitution and assisting nature to do its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Consular Reports Dealing With Eastern and South American Trade.
NEW YORK, Aug. 20.—A dispatch from Washington says: Two or three Consular reports dealing in large part with the Eastern and South American trade strengthen the views and assertions heretofore communicated to the State Department and published. Consul Covert, writing from Lyons, deals at length with the subject of the French Bureau of Foreign Commerce, recently established. The abler division of this bureau will devote its attention in a large measure to the Orient. The plan is said to be patterned after Russia, which has two foreign ministers, one for the East and the other for the continent of Europe. This bureau will be in close touch with the French boards of trade. The French are aiding Russia to develop her resources, and a large part of the report referred to is taken up with the details of this aid, which is a benefit to France of course.
The writer says that the work of the Lyons commission, sent to China by the business men, is being followed up vigorously. France is trying to keep up with England and Germany in efforts to supply China, a nation which to quote from a great European authority, "is the most potential market in the world." He adds:
"Whether this tremendous market shall be a feeder to Russia's transsiberian railroad, to England through Hong Kong, to Germany through Kiao Chou, or to France from Tonquin, is the momentous problem of the coming century."
Consul Monaghan writes from Chemnitz in two reports just given out. One, concerning Germany's shipping and the other, concerning her machinery export, throw much light on a great trade rival's operations. Compiling her figures, it is seen that there was an increase in 1898 over 1895 of 1376 ships and 600,000 tons. Compared with twenty years ago, the figures show twice the number of ships and three times as much tonnage. There was an increase of 83 per cent in the number of laden ships and 152 per cent increase in the number of registered vessels that went knot rate. The second-class will nearly approach this radius. The first-class cruisers will be able to go 10,000 knots, and a minimum of 8000 knots is fixed for all battleships.
The board also took under advisement the construction of two troop ships, each capable of transporting a regiment of 1200 men, with arms, ammunition, equipment and supplies. It is proposed, if Congress turns over to the navy the responsibility of transporting troops, according to the established usage in England and other foreign military powers of great experience, that modern armed vessels constructed solely for the purpose of speed and comfortably carrying military forces shall be promptly built. It is argued that such vessels will be indispensable, not only in the Pacific for changing the garrisons at Hawaii and Manila occasionally, but also for Porto Rico and Cuba.
SPAIN COUNTS HER LOST SHIPS.
The Madrid press has made up, with melancholy fidelity, a list of warships lost by Spain during the recent war, and there are thirty-five of them. They include Montijo's and Cervera's squadrons and many cruisers and gunboats destroyed at such ports as Manzanillo and Nipe. A few are little craft of less than 100 tons; more are from 100 to 500; while three are cruisers exceeding 3,000 tons and four are great armored cruisers of about 7,000 tons each.
One of the marked features of the war has been the fury with which our navy has attacked the Spanish ships of all sorts and classes. It has done its blockading and bombarding of ports with sobriety, has cut cables diligently and escorted troopships graciously, but the sight of a Spanish warship has brought out the fighting fever; and the rage seems to have been rather to sink than to capture, so that it has remarkably few prizes of war craft to show. It did its work so thoroughly that, although Spain still has left a few small craft hiding in harbors of the Antilles, she has not a single cruiser of considerable size and consequence, we believe.
ON A PEACE BASE
Plans to Muster Out a Hundred Thousand Volunteers.
WASHINGTON, August 18.—There is a decided change in the present plans of the War Department about 100,000 volunteers will be maintained out within the next thirty days. The formal announcement of the proposals of the Department is being ferried pending the receipt of certain desired information from General Mittt, commanding the military force in the Philippines. There is a large number of volunteers in the Philippines, and it is possible that it may be deemed advisable to bring them home and if necessary replace them with regulars. The proposed reduction in the army to the extent of 100,000 will still leave a military force of about 116,000 men, regulars and volunteers available for all military purposes. Is believed to be the purpose of Administration to maintain an army 100,000 men until all the pending operations with Spain are finally posed off.
The mustering out of the volunteer army practically began at the War Department to-day, and will be continued until the army has been placed on basis consistent with our present relations to the nations of the earth. Drafters were prepared to day for the mustering out of about 35,000 volunteers including twenty-five regiments of infantry and about eight troops of cavry, and five or six batteries of artillery. The details of the order bearing on this subject have not yet been fully performed, and the officials confine themselves to general statements in regard thereto. It was admitted that the first movement of Vermont volunteers, attached to the Third Army Corps encampment Chicamauga, Ga., had been ordered proceed to Fort Ethan Allen, Vt. The post is the nearest one to the home station members of the regiment, and selected with a view to their musings out soon after they arrive there. Adjutant-General Corbin said that similar course would be followed in case of the other volunteer regiments selected for mustering out. The wounded he said, be ordered to

One, concerning Germany's shipping and the other, concerning her machinery export, throw much light on a great trade rival's operations. Compiling her figures, it is seen that there was an increase in 1898 over 1895 of 1376 ships and 600,000 tons. Compared with twenty years ago, the figures show twice the number of ships and three times as much tonnage. There was an increase of 83 per cent in the number of laden ships and 152 per cent increase in the number of registered vessels that went out laden with the empire's products and brought in foreign raw materials. Taken as to the number of voyages the growth is almost ten per cent for the last period—1896-1695—for which figures are accessible. The Consul says:
"If we are to take part in the trade with South America and with the East, we must emulate the empire in the matter of ships. Of all ships that came into and went out of Germany's ports in 1896, 72.4 per cent bore the empire's flag. Of the steamers 68.3 per cent were German."
Germany, like France, is catering to the Russian trade and supplying that colossal country with manufactures. Russia is Germany's best buyer of machinery.
Consul Monaghan says: "It is in Eastern Russian and South American markets that we must make our greatest efforts to meet Germany. We should improve our transportation facilities to South America and inaugurate an energetic policy of making foreign markets."
NAVAL PROGRAM
Provides for the Construction of Fifteen Warships.
NEW YORK, Aug. 18. —A dispatch from Washington says: A naval program for presentation to Congress, involving the immediate construction of fifteen warships, has been adopted by the naval board of experts to whom the subject has been referred by Secretary Long. It provides for three seagoing barbette turret battleships of 13,000 tons displacement and a minimum of 181-8 knots speed when the vessels are loaded their deepest draught, or an average speed above 19 knots under ordinary cruising conditions; three first-class armored cruisers of 12,000 tons and 22 knots speed; three second-class protected and armored cruisers of 6000 tons displacement and 20 knots speed, similar to the Maine type, but highly improved, and for six protected cruisers of 2500 tons and 16 knots speed.
The reduced speed of the ships, which is uniformly about two knots less than that proposed at the preliminary meeting of the board on Tuesday, was brought about by the desire to secure unprecedented range of action on account of the increased responsibilities of the United States in the Pacific and the certainty that these vessels, or most of them, would be required to make up the fleet in that ocean. The sacrifice of speed to endurance was made with a view of securing vessels of at least 8000 knots radius or capable of steaming straight away from San Francisco to Manila and Samoa. The board decided that the Pacific, rather than the Atlantic, would be the seat of the naval operations in the future, and while great sacrifice to the speed could be made to the vessels attached to the outer line of national defense on the east coast of the United States, about normal coal capacity and high economy cruisers of about 7,000 tons each.
One of the marked features of the war has been the fury with which our navy has attacked the Spanish ships of all sorts and classes. It has done its blockading and bombarding of ports with sobriety, has cut cables diligently and escorted troopships graciously, but the sight of a Spanish warship has brought out the fighting fever; and the rage seems to have been rather to sink than to capture, so that it has remarkably few prizes of war craft to show. It did its work so thoroughly that, although Spain still has left a few small craft hiding in harbors of the Antilles, she has not a single cruiser of considerable size and consequence, we believe, either there or in the Philippines.
To the havoc in her fleet which she is now pondering she was doomed by a memorable incident of a few months ago. However it might be with her forts and her troops, annihilation was in store for her ships. When they were not destroyed in line of battle, they were chased up rivers and sent to the bottom there. Perhaps one of the chief regrets of the navy at having Watson's cruise called off has been that a few Spanish warships are still left afloat.
But our sailors may be satisfied with the list of destroyed vessels the Madrid papers ruefully publish. The navy has remembered the Maine.
KING'S PLEASURE.
Women and Children Slaughtered By Him In Siam.
The Siam Free Press prints the following account of a recent massacre of women and children by Siamese troops:
The unspeakable Turk must look to his faurels, for the events which have taken place this month in Battambong prove that the Siamese are running him close. Our readers need not be reminded that on account of the Cambodian mountaineers refusing to submit any longer to the oppression of Siamese officials and to pay the cardamon tribute, the Governor of Battambong organized an expedition against them. It is clear that he did not do so on his own responsibility, for the taxes which he meant to collect from them were to go into the King of Siam's coffers. The latest dispatch of our correspondent reads as follows:
"After the failure of the first expedition, the governor, acting under instructions from the Siamese government, prepared a second expedition. He collected together the most reckless and abandoned characters of the district, and putting himself at their head, marched rapidly and with as much secrecy as possible on the Cambodian encampment. The insurgents occupied a strong position, but with the usual carelessness of their race, they were preparing food when the Siamese arrived and there was no one on guard. Many of the able-bodied men were absent, trying to bring down some game which might supply their scanty commissariat for the day, and the greater number of those in camp were women, children and youths. Among the lot there were only six or seven that had guns; the rest were unarmed. When the Governor of Battambong and his 800 cut-throats surprised the camp there was hardly any attempt at resistance. A gallant Cambodian had killed two Siamese who had attacked a girl, but he was immediately cut down, and no one else made any resistance. They began one of the most frightful butcheries of modern times. The Governor and his valiant 800 threw themselves on the women and children, and out them.

All the vessels however will be as speedy as the fastest vessels now building abroad and they will be eminently more practicable in endurance strength and formidability.
The main battery of each battleship will be composed of four 12-inch rifles in turrets on the center line fore and aft, similar to those of the Iowa, and the secondary batteries will mount 14 and 16 rapid fire 6-inch guns. In addition to these there will be unusually large auxiliary batteries of assorted pound sizes both quick fire and semi automatic. The 13-inch guns of earlier battleships have been put aside in new designs on account of their great weight and because it will be necessary to increase materially the length of the 12-inch calibre to meet the requirements of smokeless powder exclusively to be used hereafter in the navy.
The first class cruisers will be covered with heavy armor from bow to stern and will be armed with four 8-inch guns in turrets and ten to twelve 6-inch rifles in broadside. They are to be superior in every way to ships afloat in the world to-day.
The second class cruisers, as at first proposed, were to be of 5000 tons each but the board added 1000 tons to them to be utilized wholly in coal-carrying capacity. They will have two 8-inch guns and十到十二五英寸 rapid fireers. The details of the six smaller vessels are not yet determined upon as all the energies of the board were first directed to the heavier vessels.
All the ships will be sheathed. They will have quadruple expansion engines and water tube boilers, and with the exception of the smaller craft they will be equipped with under-water torpedo tubes.
The smaller cruisers will have a steaming radius of 13,000 knots at a ten-mile arrival and there was no one on guard.
Many of the able-bodied men were absent, trying to bring down some game which might supply their scanty commissariat for the day, and the greater number of those in camp were women and youths. Among the lot there were only six or seven that had guns; the rest were unarmed. When the Governor of Battambong and his 800 cut-throats surprised the camp there was hardly any attempt at resistance. A gallant Cambodian had killed two Siamese who had attacked a girl, but he was immediately cut down, and no one else made any resistance. They began one of the most frightful butcheries of modern times. The Governor and his valiant 800 threw themselves on the women and children and cut them down with savage ferocity.
"The Siamese rammed the muzzles of their guns down the women's throats and then discharged them; they tore the children from their mothers' arms and tossed them on their bayonets; they pursued the little ones into the huts and pierced them through the straw beneath which they attempted to hide.
Two of the Cambodian leaders were captured alive, and after being treated with flendish cruelty they were decapitated and their heads stuck on pikes which were planted in the ground among the quivering mass of severed limbs and mutilated trunks which had a few moments before been human beings. After accomplishing this good day's work the Governor and his accomplices held a big carouse.
"The war is now at an end; a warlike and independent people have been practically exterminated; the remnant have fled over the frontier into French territory; but the main object of the expedition has not been gained. The cardamon tribute has not been collected, and it never shall be; for the country is now a desert. If the king wants money for his harem or for his advisers he must look elsewhere; his faithful subjects on the hills of Cambodia have gone to a better world.
"A correspondent who has traveled through the country which has been the theater of these Siamese butcheries declares that what was once a rich district is now practically a desert. All the villages in the hills are abandoned; some of them have been sacked and the inhabitants murdered; and no living thing has been left save the dogs and some of the domestic animals of the inhabitants. The Siamese have showed no money to man, woman or child all throughout this bloody business; they determined on slaughtering every Cambodian they met, and they have succeeded."
"I break a brace of tombstones," let a geezer free—when he plant stagnate my wind, and starts de fize him sniffer—and"
"Stop! stop!" said the captain.
"I take it," said the officer of the deck,"that he knocked two of his cook's teeth out, and then let him but the cook, not being satisfied, comenced to choke the seaman, and gave him a blow which caused his nose bleed."
"Well now, my man," said the captain,
“If I hear any more Choctaw spike like this, I'll caress the stomach your jeans in a way that will remind you of a Hindoo skate on the Midwife and in the meantime I'll give you boobie watch with bracelets, in the friggerator, for a seven spot."
"Which means," observed the officer of the deck to the seaman," that a more mutilation of the English language by you will cause the captain to keep snuffing out of you, and meanwhile you get a week in the brig with hawks cuffs and shackle."

A PEACE BASIS.
No Muster Out a Hundred Thousand Volunteers.
WASHINGTON, August 18.—Unless it is a decided change in the presidents of the War Department, 100,000 volunteers will be mustered within the next thirty days. A formal announcement of the purpose of the Department is being depending on the receipt of certain information from General Merchandising the military forces in Philippines. There is a large war of volunteers in the Philippe and it is possible that it may be advisable to bring them home, if necessary replace them with others. The proposed reduction of army to the extent of 100,000 men will leave a military force of about 50 men, regulars and volunteers, able for all military purposes. It would be the purpose of the registration to maintain an army of men until all the pending com-mens with Spain are finally dis-ployed.
Mustering out of the volunteer practically began at the War dept. to-day, and will be continued the army has been placed on a consistent with our present rela-tion to the nations of the earth. Or were prepared to-day for the mus-out of about 35,000 volunteers, ing twenty-five regiments of infantry and about eight troops of cavalry five or six batteries of artillery. Stations of the order bearing on this have not yet been fully perfected; the officials confine themselves general statements in regard there- was admitted that the first regi-fice Vermont volunteers, attached Third Army Corps encamped at Brougua, Ga., had been ordered to aid to Fort Ethan Allen, Vt. That the nearest one to the homes of members of the regiment, and was used with a view to their muster soon after they arrive there. Grant-General Corbin said that a course would be followed in the other volunteer regiments and for mustering out. They he said, be ordered to their SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS
The report of S. T. Black, superintendent of public instruction, just issued, shows the present number of school children in California to be 347,620, a net gain since 1890 of 65,361, and an increase of 6668 within one year. Los Angeles county shows a greater increase than any county in the State, the net increase since 1890 being 18,-649, while that of San Francisco, is 15,-092. Alpine, Gleen, Lake, Modoc, Napa, Nevada, Sierra, Stanislaus, Sutter, Trinity and Yuba counties show losses.
A big strike has been made in the Good Hope mine, Riverside county, where the workmen have run into an ore body 50 feet wide at a depth of 600 feet. The ore is low grade, but rich enough to be crushed at a profit, while the great extent of it guarantees that it can be worked for a long time. This mine was sold a few years ago to an English syndicate for $500,000, and everything went well until the ore body begin to pinch, and then the shareholders, instead of exploring further, brought suit to get back their money, on the ground that the mine had been misrepresented.
The War Department has been trying to ascertain the wishes of the troops as to being mustered out, it being the object to accommodate the troops as far as possible. Up to the present time it looks as if all the volunteers wanted to remain and that the mustering out will have to be by arbitrary order. Information received at the department indicates that the desire to remain in the service is not confined to the officers, but that the rank and file wish to continue in the Government service. The department will wait until what information possible is obtained when, if no troops desire to return to their homes, selections in the best judgment of the officers will be made. The troops, when mustered out, will be transported to their homes.

Three young women took possession of Andrew Carlson's harvester, which was at work west of Red Bluff, says the Sentinel. The regular driver was relieved by Miss Eva Burt, who drove thirty-two horses and mules like a veteran. Miss Eva Cain, teacher in the Antelope school, tended the header, and Miss Minnie Hickman was general boss, and kept everything moving smoothly. Around and around the field went the ponderous machine in charge of the young women, and Mr. Carlson declares that they made the biggest run of the season,' turning out for the day over 300 sacks of wheat.
Judge Ross in the United States Circuit Court last week granted the demurrier in the case of the Consolidated water company vs. the city of San Diego. The complainant sued as the owner of lands issued by the San Diego water company, secured by a mortgage upon the water and water plant with which it supplies San Diego with water for domestic and other purposes. The complainant alleges that the defendant, through its municipal authorities, has adopted an ordinance fixing the rates at which water should be sold to the citizens so unreasonably low as practically to take away the property securing complainant's lands, contrary to the constitution of the United States. The demurrer questioned the capacity of the complainant to sue. Judge Ross holds that the bill in this case shows that the mortgagee was not the complainant, but two trustees and their interest conveyed by,the mortgage was conveyed to them in trust,and the duty of protecting that interest develops upon them. For this reason the demururer is sustained, with leave to complainant to amend if it desires.
The mountain fires on Sunday morning threatened to destroy nearly every vestige of growth on the grand peaks and ridges north of the town of Pasadena. The fire, which has been burning during the past several days, became larger. It has now become two fires; that is,the fire has spread out, licking everything as it goes,and at present burns at opposite sides of the forty square miles which has been burned. One of these fires threatened to destroy Wilson's Peak camp, being now within eight miles of the camp, with only a ridge or gully intervening.
The other fire endangers Switzer's to some extent, though it is claimed by many that this camp cannot be harmed on account of its isolation amidst the barren territory whose foliage was licked up two years ago. The fire was within a mile of Switzer's. Great volumes of smoke arise from each fire. At Wilson's Peak they are back-firing,and hope to keep the fire away,但 a sudden gust of wind in the right direction might bring the flames shooting down upon the camp in a very short time. Only forty-five men are thus far in the field of fighters. They can do little or nothing to put the fire out,but may succeed in keeping it from spreading where it would do the greatest damage. It is estimated that about four square miles of water-sheds have been burned over. A man came down from Colby's ranch Sunday afternoon for more men and supplies. The fire, according to would enable him to recover completely. He was given six months' leave of absence."

barren territory whose foliage was licked up two years ago. The fire was within a mile of Switzer's. Great volumes of smoke arise from each fire. At Wilson's Peak they are back-firing, and hope to keep the fire away, but a sudden gust of wind in the right direction might bring the flames shooting down upon the camp in a very short time. Only forty-five men are thus far in the field of fighters. They can do little or nothing to put the fire out, but may succeed in keeping it from spreading where it would do the greatest damage. It is estimated that about four square miles of water-sheds have been burned over. A man came down from Colby's ranch Sunday afternoon for more men and supplies. The fire, according to his report, is burning toward Strawberry Hill and Switzer's, and Sunday great clouds of smoke and heat rolled over the camp. At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon a party of twenty more men went up by way of Wilson's Peak trail. These men receive 1840 per hour and board and lodging. A fire was started this morning at Baldwin's ranch, probably by cinders from a Santa Fe locomotive, and before it could be put out it had burned about ten acres of oak and other trees and bushes and was spreading up Millard's canyon when finally extinguished.
The Navy Department will ask Congress at its coming session to authorize the construction of the largest and most formidable battleships and cruisers afloat, vessels without equals in any foreign fleets and incomparably superior in offensive power, speed and endurance to any of the magnificent ships which a few weeks ago destroyed Cerva's squadron. This decision, reached at a meeting of the Naval Board of Construction, will be urged upon Congress for prompt action, supported by arguments of the most convincing character. The subject was taken up at the direction of Secretary Long, who desired to have a building programme thoroughly considered and agreed upon by the highest technical experts in the service for presentation in December to the legislative branch of the government.
The board practically agreed to begin the design of the three battle-ships of between 13,000 and 14,000 tons displacement, with at least nineteen knots maintained speed. It was also determined to recommend three first-class cruisers of about 12,000 tons and of not less than twenty-two knots speed. In addition to these, a class of protected and partly armored cruisers of between 5000 and 7000 tons, as well as a new class of 2500-ton cruisers, will be rec- two weeks. Morales gathered together a good-sized band along the Mexican border, and made his appearance at the large town of Ocos. Here he inaugurated a reign of terror. He seized many thousand bags of coffee and put them to the strange use of building breast works for his revolutionary band. Sorties were made along the harbor front, and launches and other craft were burned and destroyed. One of the most audacious acts was the laying tribute upon the United States Consul and other consular officials there, in the sum of $1500.
The condition of affairs has been reported to the State Department from time to time, and efforts were made, in connection with the Mexican authorities to put an end to the depredations. There was some delay, however, owing to the death of the Mexican Minister's wife, and his consequent absence from Washington. Ordinarily the United States is represented in Guatemala waters by a warship, but owing to the war with Spain, all our ships have been required elsewhere. It is for this reason, probably, that the foreign representatives, including those of the United States, united in asking the aid of the British naval commander at Ocos. This is proved effective, according to the reports just received from Minister Hunter, as the revolution is ended with the capture and death of Morales.
Prospero Morales has been a conspicuous figure in Central American affairs during the last three years. He was Minister of War in the Cabinet of President Barrios, and it is said that he used war office to foment the rebellion against Barrios. The latter detected the plot, and Morales fled to Mexico, where he organized his revolutionary band. In the meantime Barrios was assassinated, being succeeded by President Cecerra.
Among South American officials here it is said that Morales's death will restore a calm to Central American affairs, which has not existed for many months, even years, owing to the widespread influence of Morales. He was about 45 years old, a man of education and of marked force of character.
