A Prominent Spanish Officer Ar ranged the Plot.: Secret Meet ings at Matamas A Subter - ranean Passage Used t Connecting Wire. Special to Journal. Havana, February 26. It !a claimed in Havana that facts coining to light show that the author of the plot to blow up the battleship Maine was a promi nent Spanish officer, who has been noted for loudly expressed hatred to Americans. Tha officer was not in the regular Spanish Army but was well known, and was a leading spirit in the recent dis turbances in this city. The rumors cur reut here make no secret of his name. According to these reports there were two Havana officials in the plot also but that the actual work of destruction was I done by citizens of Matanzas. ! Secret meeting were held at the house ' I of an officer in Matanziia. The man sc-j Ilected for the wok was instructed where I to llnd the wire connecting with the! mine under the Maine. This was done by means of a secret tunnel, access to which was known to only a few persona. REPUBLICAN FRANCE IN DANiER Foretell PrewLExpreM the Belief Tbat the PreWn Army Control tbe Nntion. I Special to Journal, London, February 20 The European I press, with the exception of the French press, and those papers devoted to the j Anti-Semitic feeling, decline that the i I army is uo master of the Republic of I Frauce. They point out that the only thing needful is able officers to take the lead, in which case the army would become the greatest peril both at home and abroad. DANGER IN SODA. erlan ItesnllaNoinelliiirN Follow ltd Kxeemitve le. Common soda is all right in its place and indispensable in the kitchen anil for cooking and washing purposes, but it was never intended for a medicine, and peo pie who use it as such will somo day rcgrel it. We refer to the common use of suda tu relieve heartburn or suiir ' stomach, a habit which thousands of people practice almost daily, and one which is fraught with Danger; moreover the soda only gives temporary relief and in the end the stomach trouble gets worse and worse. The soda acts as a mechanical irritant to the walls of tha stomach and bowels .tnd cases arc on record where it accumu lated in the intestine, causing death by tnnammalioo or peritonitis. tnc Dr. Unrlandsua recommends as safest and surest cure for sour stomach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent preparation sold by druggists under the name ot Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tali lets are large 29 grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste and contain the natural acids, peptones aud digestive elements snuai to good aiiestion; ana wnen taken after meals they digest the food perfectly and promptly before It has time to ferment, sour aud poison the blood and nervous Sf stem. Dr. Wuertb states that lie invariably uses moan's Dyspepsia Tablets in all case ot stomach derangements and finds them a certain cure not only for sour stomach, but by promptly digesting the food. they create a healthy appetite, in crease tlesh and strengthen the action of tbe heart and liver. They are not a ca thartic, but Intonded only for stomach disease and weakness and will be found reliable In any itomacli trouble except cancer of the stomach.

The Evening World's special cable from Havana says: "It is absolutely certain that the battle ship Maine was blown up by outside agencies. The divers yesterday found absolute proof that the big forward magazine, which alone could have so j damaged tbe ship, is surely uncxploded j Many divers so swore as their evidence, ! before the investigating committee today. ! "There is no longer any doubt about j the (hiding of the boltom plates blown up. These plates show lour leet aoove the water. It is now becoming the set tied opiuion that the actual results of the upheaval were caused by a mine, which was aided by 500 pounds of saluting powder contained rn the reserve maga- I zine." i London, February 2fl. (Special.) The j Pall Mall Gazelle says today: "In spite of all manner of reports received, we ' cannot for the life of us see any immed iate prospect of war between Spain and j the Uuited States, There is absolutely no evidence that anything but an accident occurred to the Maine, liven those who stick to the explanation of a torpedo explosion attribute it to a fiendiah and irresponsible fanatic. In that case Spain would instantly right herself by making amends for the destruction of the vessel. There is one thing necessary and that for the administration at Washington to keep its head and that is what it seems to be do'iug." Washington, February 20 'Special) The Administration lias ordered the commandant of the navy yard to ship to the Brook ly navy yard all the guns to be used on the auxiliary cruisers. The nam her of guns available at the navy yard I for this purpose is 242. It is considered a significant fact show. ing the seriousness of tho situation at this moment as regarded by ilieudminis lion that Secretary of the Navy Long has decided not to take even a short leave on account of his health, It was announced that the Secretary would go away for a rest, leaving mat lers of the Department in charge of Assistant Secretary Hoosevelt. Secretary Long has been under a constant strain since be was awakened on the night of February loth and learned of thedeslrnc Hon of the Maine, The discussion of an indemnity by the cabinet to be demanded from Spain for the destruction of tho Maine i believed to indicate that the Administration lias about abandoned the aceident theory, I That an (nriuiTinit v will be demanded i )n CMe , Manu ls ,hown to hae (wn blown up by any outside agency what- t . ever m conceded, u npain pays mc in- demnity the crinis may be tided over. The SpanUh people however, ara in no spirit to give satisfaction and the 31 nil rid paper declare that It is an American pretense to humiliate Spain, More than 6I0.OOU.0O0 would likely be demanded as en indemnity by this country, The fleet of war ehipa now assembling at Key West within a few hour sail of Havana would move on that city Im mediately upon the refusal of 8p4in to listen to an indemnitv.

Smith was removed as hiipeimtcndent of the penitentiary about the lirnt of the year, llovernor Hussell saying it took but little brains to be Agricultural Commissioner.
