The Administration is Firm as
Ever, Men Wanted for the
Navy. Secretary Gage Now
Has Something to Say
on War.
Special to Journal.
Kky Wist, March 19. It is reported
that General Garcia, of the Insurgent
forces, has captured the Spanish Ueucial
Pan lo.
The Cubans believe that tins disaster
o the Spanish arms will bring Spain to
terms. Tbe wildest excitement prevails
among the Cuban sympathizers.
San Francisco, March-19. (Special.)
Tbe battleship Oregon lias sailed to
Callao, to await orders at that port.
Washington, March 19. (Special.)
Assistant Secretary of tho'Navy Roosevelt
says that there is and will be no recession
from the stand talteu by the United
States Government towards Spain.
The administration, Koosovelt declares,
has mapped out its plans and will tirmly
carry tlicin out.
Ordering the Massachusetts and Texas
to Hampton Koads where ihey are to be
j lined by the Brooklyn, Columbia and
and Minneapolis, was for the purpose of
better protecting the Atlantic coast.
He also says that the intimation that
Spain did -not like the presence of the
fleet at Key West had nothing to do with
the formation of the fleet in Hampton
lioads.
The dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, from
Key West reached the navy yard at
Washington this morning.
It is expected that her nuns can be
prepared in a few days.1 It is believed
in some quarters that the Vesuvius car
ries the preliminary report from the
board of inquiry, but this is denied.
Tlio Navy Department is preparing to
send several thousand notices to be pos
ted in the principal towns throughout
the United States calling for enlistment
in the Navy.
The advertisements call for men be
tween 18 and 35 years of age, except for
ordinary seemcn who are required to be
18 to 80 years. The Navy Department
is experiencing the utmost difficulty in
securing seamen for the service
It is reported: that Lieut. Hoi man, the
Maino surveyor, who was called back
today, brought a report from the court o
inquiry. He was closeted for sometime
with Secretary Long and then saw tbe
President.
The House this afternoon agreed to
the bill admitting free of duty all mili
tary and naval supplies purchased abroad.
Cleveland, March 19. (Special.) Bee
retary of the Treasury Cage declared to
day that he does not believe present
complications with Spain will lead to
war. He said the people are getting
used to this war talk and understand
that it means ltttlc or nothing.
There is a possibility of war, lie says,
and if it comes the financial resources of
tiie government will be equal to any
emergency which may confront it. The
President can doubtless ask for and get
any appropriation wanted. Our credit
is the very best and the business interests
have not been attecteJ by the possibilities
of war.

I KKIIrnlr, However, I. Not Argument
Stomach troubles are so common and
Ji fih many cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion on
uny remedy claiming to be a radical,
permanent cure for dyspepsia and Indi
gestion. Many such pride themselves on
never being humbugged especially ou
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged may bo
carried too far: so far, to fact that many
persons suffer tor years with weak diges
tion, rather than risk a little time and
money in faithfully testing I lie claims of
a preparation so reliable and universally
useu as oiutni vynpepsia lauieis.
Now Stuarts Uyspcpsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not a secret
patent medicine, no secret i made of
their ingredients, but analysis shows
them to contain the natural digestive
ferments. Dure aseptic pepsin, the diges
tive acids, liolden Heal, bismuth, Hydras
tis and mix. Ihey are not cathartic,
neither do they sot powerfully on any
organ, but they curj indigestion on the
common sense plan of digesting the food
eaten promptly, thoroughly he ore It
has lime to ferment, sour and cause the
mischief. This Is the only secret of their
success.
Calhartlo puis never havo and never
can cure indigestion snd stomach troubles
because they act entirely upon the bowels
whereas the whole trouble is really lo tbe
stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet, taken after
meals, digest the food. That is all there
is to it. Food not digested or halfdl
nested is poison, as it creates gas, acidity,
berdaches, palpitation of the heart, loss
of flesh and appetite, and many other
troubles which are often called by some
other name.
They are sold by druggist everywhere
at SO cents per package. Address Htuart

Havana, March IS. Havana is more

next three days will bo closely watched
aud may be of great importance.
El Gorreo, in its issue tonight, dc'are
that Spain occupies u serene altitude, re
gardless of the "bravado of jingoes" and
the suspicious situation of the American
fleet around Cuba and Porto liico. When
the time arrives, the paper states, Spain
will i.n lerstand how lo chango her atli

The attitude of the Havana papers has
changed. The United States are now

Balcigh, N. C, Marcli 19, '98. (
Not long ago a man in lancy county
was fined (100 for contempt. This went
o the Slate school fund. Governor Rus
sell later pardoned the man and he now
makes the demand that the $100 be re
funded. Superintendent of Public In
struction Mebane referred the matter to
the Attorney General. He says ,-that
nless money already paid to the public
authorities is, by the express terms of the
pardon of the Governor, to be refunded.
such limitations being within tli j power
of the executive, such money can not be
cf unded unless by Legislative act."
The penitentiary board passed a resolu
tion asking the N. C. Senators and Con
gressmen to use every effort to have the
permanent Federal prison located here.
The board declined to adopt the report of
x-Superintendent Smith, (because of the
absence of some figures required by law,
The Finance committee of the Board
Aldermen, after meeting witii the
Raleigh Street Railway people regarding
Joint work, as to hauling the rock from
the quarry to the city for street improve
ments, decided that the proposition from
the Street Car Company could not be ac
cepted. The Street and Finance coinmit-
cs then decided to build a tram way,
and use horse power. Contracts for the
ork will be given out at once.
The Pithian's paper, '-The Carolina
Pithian," published at Charlotte has
made its appearance. It is a handsome
paper.
The candidates for the Raleigh post-
mastership have all been summoned to
Washington by Senator Pritchard. The
Senator says he has indorsed no one, and
is pledged to no man. Col. Shaffer, ex
postmaster. Mr. C. Tom Bailey and Mr.
John Nichols are the .three who are seek-
ng the appointment. Jim Young (col
ored) had no showing so he withdrew
from the race. Mr. Joshua B. Hill seems
to have dropped out also. Every indica
tion is that Bailey will get the appoint
ment, but charges will no doubt be pre
fcrred, and his confirmation will be
fought in Ibe Senate.
Superintendent Mebane left today for
Graham where ho goes to attend a teach
ers' associaliou. lie expects to be away
several weeks conducting a vigorous
educational campaign.
The government requests that Ihe
guards at tins penitentiary be uniformed
so the Board of Directors ordered that
