Special to Journal.
Washington, March 24. The createst
possible prcHsure is being brought upon
President MeKinley by both the finan
cial and the Cuban interests, making
these the most trying momenta in his
life. '
The President was in conference with
Secretary Day until two o'clock this
morning, lie arose at eijlit o'clock and
was soon after visited by Senator
Hnnna.
"The President nnd Secretary Long will
await the arrival of the report of the
court of inquiry of the Maine disaster
which will arrive about midnight to
night, Every effort is being made by
the railway authorities not to allow any
delay to tho train carrying Lieut. Com
mander Marix and the report.
The conference of the leaders of the
Senate and House, which has been al
most continuous for tho past few days,
is not so much for the purpose of gaiu
ing the sentiment of the two Houses
upon the Cuban situation as to prevent
action being taken when the report of
the Maine naval board is submitted.
Such action might upset the plans of the
President and Cabinet.
A prominent Senator, referring to last
night's White House conference, laid
before his colleagues the surprising in
formation that he had good reason to
believe that the court of inquiry would
submit evidence in the report showing
that Spain was accessory tn the explosion.
The Navy Department has received
information that the Spanish torpedo
fleet, which has been halted at the Canary
Islands lor several day, started west
ward this morning.
Captain Sigsbce and six other officers
of the Maine were today detached from
command and ordered home on waiting
orders.
The Senate has adjnurned until Mon

Rrgnrdln- Rrmrdlrs far Dyspepsia
nnd Indigestion.
The national disease of Americans is
indigestion or in its chronic form', dys
pepsia, and for the very reason tRat it is
so common many people neglect taking
proper treatment for whit they consider
trifling stomach trouble, when as a mat
ter of fact, indigestion lays the founda
tion for many incurable diseases. No
person with a vigorous, healthy stomach
will full a victim to consumption. Many
kidney diseases and heart troubles date
their beginning from poor digestion;
iliin, nervous people are really so because
their stomachs are out of gear; weary,
languid, faded out aomcu owe their
condition to Imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you Beet is
afflicted with wesk digestion it is not
surprising that nearly every seorct pa
tent medietas, on the market claims to be
a cure for dyspepsia, as well as a score of
other troubles, when in fact, as Dr,
Worthier says, there is but one genuine
dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe
and reliable, and moreover, this remedy
it not a patent medicine, but It is a scien
tific combination of pure pepsin (free
from animal matter), vegetable essences
frutt salts and bismuth. It is sold by
dnipglsts tinder name of Stuart's Djsprp.

made for them, hut for indigestion or
any stomach trouble, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are far ahead of any remedy yet
discovered. They act oe the food eaten,
no dieting is nceessary, simply rat all

tablets will digest It. A cure results,
because all the stomach needs Is a rest,

Journal Bureau,
Raleigh, N, C, March 24. f
Since Covernor Russell has had the
case against the lease of the North Caro
lina Railroad to the Southern stricken
from the circuit court dockets, it is said
that he admits that he began this suit ' in
demand to the clamor of politicians.
Browning, the man who killed his
father in law in January, and whose trial
before a magistrate had to be postponed
because he broke out with measles just
after he was put in jail, was yesterday
bound over in a $500 bond to the Super
ior court. He claims he killed him in
self defense, but failed to prove it satis
factorily. It is today stated that two more of the
Republican penitentiary directors will
soon send in their resignations. This is
a chance for more Populists to be hon
ored. The "game of baseball this afternoon
between Augusta and the Agricultural
and Mechanical College made a score of
18 to 11 in favor of Augusta,
There are many marriages booked for
here in April. Miss Simmons and Mr.
Lewis Mahler, both of this citv; Col. Slitt
of Charlotte and Miss Linn Battle; Miss
Shiveley and Mr. Jacob Allen, Jr., of
Raleigh are among the prominent ones.
The prediction that tonight there
would be a killing frost could hardly be
believed when it was yesterday with the
thermometer way up in the eighties.
The Criminal term of court will meet
here on tho 23th. Judge Timbcrlake will
hold the court. The docket is a varied
one, murder, misdemeanor, "unlawful
discrimination," larceny, and burglary.
The misdemeanor cases are against Col,
Andrews, J. B. Munson, II. W. Miller,
and R. L. Potts, for refusing to answer
questions asked them by the Railroad
commission.
Senator Butler says that the 2 and 2
cent per mile passenger rate was "fair
and righteous." In anotliei purt of hit
paper he rather makes "a pass" at the
Pritchard Populists who were allowed
recognition in the recent Populist con
ference held here. He says "it contained
some parties, claiming to represent cer
tain counties, when indred they hare no
following among Populists in such conn-
ties.and could not certainly be elected as
delegates representing the Populists of
thiir couulies."
Mchngan and Latham of the Abbeville
Oa. hank were arrested in Tarboro yes
terday.
Judge T. C. Fuller of this city has no
tified L.O'B, Branch Camp Confederate
Veterans that he will pay for 5 uniforms
for veterans who will attend the State
reunion at Charlotte May 20th. This is a
generous act of Judge Fuller's, and one
that will receive hearty approbation and
appreciation. He is an old Confederate
soldier himself.
Uvhagan and Latham were given a
hearing thii afternoon before Judge
Walter Clark of the Supreme Court
bench. There will be a writ of habeas cm-
pus asked for to determine whether llui
cases are subject to requisition. This is
done to await the return of the Governor
from Wilmington tomnrrnw. The
requisition will no doubt be honored.
