TO HEMAIN IN CONTROL
United States "Will Kot Eeliuqnish Cuba
Under Fiesent Conditions.
DEMAND "SUBSTANTIAL" ADOPTION
Convention's Garbled Amendment U Not
Acceptable Substitute CoiuertiUrct
to Crse Rceeti, Hoping Finally for the
Adoption of tbe Original.
WASHINGTON, June 3. It Is offi
cially stated that the United Statea
will remain in control of Cuba
til tbe Piatt amendment Las been
"substantially adopted." This "was
made known to General Wood ."ast
Tuesday by Secretary Root, and his
action has been approved by the pres
ident. Secretary Root was with the presi
dent about an hour and a half dis
cussing with him the cablegram which
had bet J prepared to be sent to Gov
ernor General Wood at Havana, relat
ing to the action of this government
on the Cuban constitution. This mes
sage is long and will be forwarded
to General Wood with the Idea of hav
ing him communicate it to the consti
tutional convention. It will not be
made public at this time and probably
not until the convention takes action.
HAVANA, June 3. The press de
plores the misunderstanding with the
Washington government, but generally
admits the possibility of a wrong con
struction being put upon the amend
ment by the explanations and Inter
pretations, and that it will be best
for the convention to take up the ques
tion immediately and accept the
amendment as passed by congress.
La L-ucha says that 85 per cent of
the people favor this, but the dele
gates are at a loss what to do. Some
claim the United States is not acting
In good faith, as it was most improb
able that the Washington officials did
not know what the convention was
doing and what was the nature of the
report to be submitted. They say
that a majority of the committee on
relations told them that the amend
ment as accepted would be satisfactory
to the United States and that they
tad the assurance of General Wood
and Secretary Root to this effect. The
members of the committee on relations
will say nothing la regard to this
joint, other than they, too, thought
it would be satisfactory.
Secret ressions and absent stenog
raphers make It Impossible for even
the delegates themselves to set things
aright. Regarding the controversy
which will surely arise later as to
who is responsible, the convention will
place the responsibility upon the com
mittee, and they, it is said, will blame
General Wood and Secretary Root.
An effort is being made tonight by
some of the conservatives to avoid this
crisis by asking the convention to ad
journ for a month, in the meanwhile
having the municipalities petition the
convention to pass the original amend
ment. Several municipalities have al
ready taken that action and It is
thought others will fall .Into line.
In the municipal election the na
tionalists claim the election of Senor
Gener, their candidate for mayor, and
a majority of tbe council.
CAPTAIN HOW GATE DEAD.
Fonatr OOrcr, Fourteen Tears in Hiding,
Expiree suddenly.
WASHINGTON, June 3. Captain
Henry W. Howgate, formerly signal
officer in the United States army, died
suddenly this afternoon of cerebral
hemorrhage at his home in this city.
He was 67 years old. No definite fu
neral arrangements have been made,
but it is expected the interment will
be here.
Captain Howgate had a singular and
eventful life. While a trusted official
of the signal service he was charged
with appropriating a large amount of
government funds and placed under ar
rest. His escape and flight were at
tended with many dramatic features,
for by a ruse he got away from a gov
ernment officer having him in charge
while the latter supposed his prisoner
was taking a bath. For years he re
mained in hiding, and not until four
teen years after his escape was he lo-
cated by secret service detectives as
proprietors of an obscure book store
In New York.

lioth Cl Imine Santiago.
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, June 3. The
present reports from outside points
show a victory for the nationalists,
but both parties claim to have won In
the city. The republicans showed un
expected strength, though probably
rot enough to elect their candidates.
The nationalists make charges of ille
gal voting. The streets are filled with
frenzied partisans, cheering their fa
vorite candidates. Over 100 arrests
jaere mad durinfi t& day.
HER STRENGTH IS EBBING.
Mrs. McKlnley Baa Ket Accomplished
the Necessary Rally.
WASHINGTON. June 3. Mrs. Mc
Klnley continues very weak. Her con
dition is not greatly changed from that
of yesterday, but each day that elapses
without a gain in strength lessens her
powers of recuperation.
The complaint which came near
ending her life In San Francisco is
still present. It is in a slightly less
aggravated form, but gives the physi
cians and the president much concern.
Mrs. McKinley has shown remarkable
vitality, but her illness has so reduced
her strength as to leave her very
feeble.
It is feared that unless a change for
the better soon manifests Itself her
strength may become so near exhaust
ed as to leave her without rallying
power.
The news given out by the physi
cians in attendance was not reassur
ing, though hope of better things con
tinues. After a consultation between
Drs. Rixey, Sternberg and Johnson,
the following bulletin was Issued:
"Mrs. McKlnley passed a comfortable
night, but her condition has not ma
terially changed since the report of
yesterday."
There was no further consultations
of the physicians during the day, but
Dr. Rixey called during the evening
and spent some time with the patient.
In response to inquiries from time to
time the statement was made that
there had been no change In the con
dition of the distinguished sufferer.
President McKinley spent most of
the day at the bedside of his wife,
though, late in the afternoon he went
out for an hour's drive. He departed
alone, but met Judge Watson of Ohio,
an old friend, on the way and the
latter accompanied him to the white
house.

A Blacksmith's Strang Experience.
Goodland, Kan., June 3. N. E. Al
bertson. our leading blacksmith has
been a great sufferer from rheumatism.
He was so bad that he could not sleep
for the great pain in his arms and
shoulders. He had been afflicted for
years, but lately he was so mucn worse,
that he thought he would have to give
up his shop altogether.
Then a strange thing happened. A
friend of his recommended a new
medicine called Dodd's Kidney Pills,
said to be a cure for Rheumatism. He
commenced to use them, and at once
began to recover. His pain has all left
him, and he is a well man today, and
entirely free from any symptom of
Rheumatism.
To say that he Is thankful, Is putting
It very mildly. He is delighted.
Dodd's Kidney Pills deserve credit
for having cured this very severe and
almost hopeless case.
From recent reports, there does not
seem to be anything that they will not
cure, as very bad cases of Bright's Dis
ease. Diabetes, Dropsy. Rheumatism,
and Heart Trouble, have been cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills, even after having
been given up by our best doctors.

Most people eat more than Is good for them. The stomach tries to digest all that's put into It, but If repeatedly overloaded. It goes on
a strike. That's indigestion, Rich, over-sweet, indigestible food weakens the stomach and makes It unable to take care of the material put
Into It. More food taken into a weakened stomach than the stomach can digest, stays there, forms gases and rots, bringing on all the horrors of
dyspepsia. The only way to cure dyspepsia Is to clean out the digestive canal with CASOaRETS. Keep it clean wifh Cascarets, eat light
pod sparingly, and give the stomach a chance to rest up and get strong again.
Be sure you get the genuine GARGARETS!

MISS LUCY ANNIE HEISER, OP MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.
Miss Lucy Annie Heiser. a graduated nurse of nine years' experience,
trained and graduated from the Homeopathic Hospital of Minneapolis, Minn.,
writes as follows:
Albert Lea, Minn., Nov. 8, 1899.
Tbe Parana Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio:
Gentlemen "Although my school does not believe In patent medicines, I
have found It to bo a. tact that Peruna Is a grand and valuable medicine. I
have known It to care Mrs. Sampson, suffering with an Inflamed womb, aggra
vated by malaria, after the doctors had failed to help her. Another of my
former patients suffered with a complication of female diseases; sbe was so
thin, nothing but skin and bones, but Peruna cured her and sbe Is to-day In
good health and good flesh. Facts prove that Peruna revives lost strength and
restores to the sick that most wonderful blessing of life health.
Lucy Annie Helser,
If all the tired women and all the nervous women, and all the women that
seeded a tonic would read and heed the words of these fair ladies who have
spoken right to the point, how many Invalids would be prevented and how
many wretched lives be made happy.
Peruna restores health In a normal way.
Peruna puts right all the mucous m embraces of the body, and in this way
restores the functions of every organ.
Soloists With Bellstedt.
There are many soloists in the fa
mous Bellstedt band, now fulfilling a
month's engagement in Omaha at the
Musical Festival, among them being
Messrs. Emil Kopp, George Kernst and
Charles B. Jones, all famed as cornet
ists, each having been at some time
chief virtuoso in some of the leading
bands of the country. Mr. Karl Mey
er, clarinet virtuoso, has fiIJd that po
sition with the best musical organiza
tions. Some of these gentlemen are
beard with great delight at nearly ev
ery concert. It is rare that a band is
placed before the public that contains
as many soloists of acknowledged
merit as Bella todt'o, and those -who
fall to attend some of the concerts
will miss a treat not often to be taken
advantage of. The concerts were be
gun June 1st and will continue tbe en
tire month, two concerts being given
each day. Railroads within a radius
of 150 miles of Omaha will give re
duced rates.
The bandmaster likes to have the
public's money play into his hands.

Columbia City, Wastt.
T can speak only good words of the
repeated benefits I have had from the
use of Peruna.
"Too constant application to work
last winter caused me to have severe'
head and backache and dragging pains.
I could not stop my work, neither was
I fit to go on. Reading of the bene
ficial results from tbe use of Peruna t
purchased a bottle and within at few
days after using It, began to feel better.
"I constantly improved and before)
the seventh bottle was completely
used, all pains were gone, my strength
was restored, and I now seem ten
years' younger.
"If I get tired or feel bad, Peruna, at
once helps me, and I feel you deserve
praise for placing such a conscientious
medicine before a suffering public.
