MANAnUA.NIcarasua , March 14. ( Via Oal
vcston. ) The Nicaragua government troop
won another Important victory over th
forces of the rebellious Leonlota , and ther
Is great rejoicing here In consequence.
The Imttlo took place at I'ltal , not fa
from Momotombo. Between 2,000 nnd 3.00
men were engaged , the fighting was sever
nnd the troops from Leon , Chlchcgalpl aui
Chlnandega , the thrco strongholds of the
Leonlsts , numbering about 1,500 men , wcro
completely routed , with the loss of abou
200 killed and wounded. Only about fifty o
the government troops , which numberex
about 1,200 men , were killed or woundc
The rebels were commanded by Genera
Ortiz , the comniander-ln-chlef of the Leon
forces ; but Dacca , the rebel president , wa
at Leon , It Is believed , supervising the worl
of putting that city In as complete a state o
defense as possible previous to the nrrlva
before It of the government nrmy and the
nrmy which the goveinment of Honduras h s
sent to the support of the troops of Presl
dent Zelayn. The government troops were
commanded by Ocncrnls Palz and Dodan ,
I'ltnl Is a small town near Lake Managua
Of the 300 or so buildings which compose the
town , many are of wood and others of coarse
mud-like bricks with red clay tiles. Du
outstdo the town U a high ridge of grount
which forms an admirable point of vantage
against any foe.
The government troops began the advance
from Nagrole on Wednesday after the skir
mish with the enemy , nhlc.li resulted In the
Leonlsts being driven back with the loss o
fifty killed and wounded. The government
forces approached Pltal yesterday morning
The firing upon the part of the rebels com
menced as fwon as the troops were within
range ; but the government forces , acting
under explicit orders , reserved their flre aui
continued their advance , taking advantage ol
all the Inequalities of the ground In order
to obtain protection from the bullets of the
Leonlsts , which , ns n rule , either fell'shorl
or flew high nbove the heads of the troops
The result was that President Belaya's troops
were nble to get within good striking dis
tance of Pltal , with the loss of only three
men killed and seven wounded. The Leon
lsts , however , kept up the firing throughout
the advance.
MOVDD IN FOUR COLUMNS.
The government forces moved on Pltal li
four columns , each of about SOO men , am
took up posltlcns in a half-circle before the
town. The first and third columns' ' opened a
hot flro on the rebel positions and under Its
cover columns two and four pushed fcrwari
at the charge until they reached much better
positions , half sheltered by an Inequality In
the ground. From there they opened flro on
the Leonlsts , enabling columns ono and three
to push onward. During this ndvance , thanks
to the well directed fire of the government
troops , the Ices of the latter was trifling.
All four columns then concentrated their
flro on the ridge occupied by the Lconists
and then began a series of short rushes for
ward and eventually there wns a charge up
the ridge , a short baycnef fight , when the
summit wan attained , anil then the Leonlsts
broke and ran for Pitnlj pursued by the
trops of President Zelaya.
When the Leonlsts reached the shelter of
the tqwn they made , -stand , but by .this
tlmo the JwQf gunsjwlth the government
columns had been brought into action ant
the Lbonlsts were' cannonaded very cleverly
ciorislderliig the lack"of training of tho' ' gov
ernment' gunners ?
The rest of the Alight was not a walkover
for the government soldiers. The Leonlsts
defended the place stubbornly , but the troops
pushed on and eventually entered the town
driving the Leonlsts before them at the
point of the bayonet. The enemy afterwurt
scattered and In small bodies fled toward
Leon , after making a short stand outside
Pltal and firing at long range. A few shots
from the artillery , however , completely
routed the Lecnlst ? , who left about 200 killed
nnd wounded on the field , besides taking
nw'ay with them a large number of men who
were slightly wounded.
The government troopa also captured over
fifty , prisoners In the houses of Pita ] , .the
rebels Irf nearly every Instance throwing
down their arms ns s'on ns the soldiers broke
In the doors of the buildings.
UEJOICINO OVER THE VICTORY.
There Is much rejoicing tore today at this
further success of the president's soldiers
and bo Is receiving , congratulations on al
sides. 'The church bells have been kept con
tinually ringing ever since the glad news
wag made public , and a battery of artillery
In the small park In front of the palace has
already fired three presidential salutes. The
blue and whlto colors of Nicaragua are floatIng -
Ing from every building of any Importance ,
and even the smallest mud hovels have dis
played some kind of decoration In honor of
the victory of the Nlcaraguan troops. ,
The success of the Government troops at
Pltal is all the more pleasing to the in
habitants of this city , as many of the men
engaged were Managuans , and General Palz
Is a great favorite here.
Although no official announcement has
been made on the subject , it is understood
that tho' ' troops from Honduras will soon' bo
In touch with those of Nicaragua , and as
both republics suffer from the machinations
of the clericals , who are the mainsprings of
the rebellion , they will practically bo flght-
ng for a common cause and the result
should not be Ions In doubt , although It is
understood that Leon and Its neighborhood
'las ' been very strongly fortified and well
provisioned.
The garrison of Managua was paraded this
nornlng in marching order , and the com-
nanding ofllccrs read to the troops the presi
dent's message announcing the victory. The
news was enthusiastically received. The
sold lore tlion marched through the capital ,
cheering for the government and President
Zelaya.
The government troops are now being con
centrated for the ndvance upon Leon , which ,
t Is expected , will commence In a few days.

1'HILAnELPHLV March U. "If you will
refer to the Navy department reports nt
Washington you will find a direct rcfutitlon
of the statements , " eald Hwiry W. Crnmp ,
n member of the firm of William Cramp &
flono , shipbuilders , today , referring to a pub
lished story to tha effect that the nrm.imcnt
of the- battleship , Indiana , was entirely too
heavy for thp vessel. He said that official
records show that the guns of tlin Indiana
had been fired , and that the results had been
class d as succea-Jiil.
"We do not know on what authority the
statements were published today , and have no
dwlre to engage In a controversy of any kind
regarding the subject , " added Mr Cramp ,
"Wo will simply refer nil persons In sarch
of Information to the departments at Wash
ington , I will state , however , thnt Informa
tion furnished to the firm has always bean to
the effect that the armament was well
adapted to the ship , nnd that the guns
worked all right during official trials. "
There was no blnmo attached to the
builders In the statement published today.
The repponslblllty for the alleged unsathfac-
tory results wns placed on the shoulders of
thos who designed the ship , and H wns nd-
mltted that the plans had boon followed In
ovcry particular by the builders of the voxels.
The Massachusetts , n sister ship of the In
diana , will leave Cramp's on Tuesday for the
builders' trial trip. About three weeks after
the ship returns to the yards ItM bo
placed In readiness for the official trip.
WASHINGTON , March 14. Private ad
vices received here from Port Royal are to
the effect that the Indiana touched the bottom
tom on the harbor yesterday while coining
In , As no ofllclal report has been made to
the Nnvy department yet. It Is nojiiiiied that
no damage was sustained , ns the bottom Is
soft inud Inside the harbor , nnd the vessel
was.undoubtedly proceeding very slowly ,
The officials at the Navy dppartment rid
icule the * story that there Is anything wrong
with the battery of the ship , nnd point to
the report of the Inspection board , which
went tosea with it , and fired every
gun on the ship under nil possible rsrv-
Ice conditions. The big thlrte n-lnch
guns constituting the main battery worked
\vlth a perfect smoothness , and the turret
turning mechanism , which generally gives
more or less trouble at first , functioned with
out n hitch. . The blast of the big guns
started leaks In some of the battle hatches ,
and these were ordered to bo replaced by
heavier metals , but this was In contemplation
before. As for the secondary battery as re
ported at the tlmo of the trial , nil worked
well except that the eight-Inch guns could
not bo flred safely directly over the turrets
of the thlrtccn-lnch guns without first caus-
JMR the men In the sighting hoods to vacate.
'This nlso wns expected , and Indeed , the
plans for the double-dory turrets , which nre
to go on the two new battleships. Koarsarga
and Kentucky , were evolved as the resul
of experiments made at the proving grounds ,
which showed that It would not bo , posolbli
safely to flra the eight-Inch guns directly eve
the main turrets. In the case of the Indiana
the Inspection board recommended that tc
guard against accidental ranging of th
smaller guns over the big turrets , chock
be placed In the gear , and this has already
been ordered ,

not fugitives from Justice. Judge 'Ermston !

ST. LOUIS , March 14. On Sunday , March
22 , the Wabash will place in effect a no\\
schedule , under which the pasronger and
mail servlco of the rad will be greatly
Improved. The change will materially
shorter : the''time fr&m Kansas' City and
western 1io'lts | 'to the" east , and effect n
saving of from twelve to fifteen hours I
the transmission of the malls. The mosi
Important Innovation is the establlshmen
of an early morning fast mail train frcm
St. Loul3 to Chicago and Toledo. Till
train will leave St. Louis at 3:45 : o. m. , ar
riving at Chicago at 11:30 : a. m. , and Toled
at 2:35 : p. m. At Toledo , close connection
will bo made with the Lake Shore & Mlcbl
gan Southern fcr the east , and In addltioi
, the train will carry through cars betwee
St. Louis and New York. The train wll
oive Kansas City at 6:30 : p. m. , and ar
rlvo at St. Louis at 2:35 : a. m. The run
from Toledo to this city will be made in
on hours and twenty-five minutes. Othe
changes in the schedule now in force , at-
'ectlng other trains , will be mnde.
Inquiry at the local offlcas of the Wabash
road ohowcd that there wculd be no change
n trains In or out of Omaha. St. Louis
Chicago receive the greatest amount of at >
.entlon from the Wabash road , and It Is the
traffic betwoan those two cities that Is mos
carefully looked after. The change In the
lunning schedules cf trains cut of St. Louis ,
Chicago and Kansas City will , of course , af
ford better service indirectly to this city.
GRAIN HATES A Hli III2ING SHADED
AH the ItoiulH from ChlciiKO Hunt Im-
CHICAGO , March 14. The Officials of the
Joint Traffic association have sent out strong
denials that grain rates from Chicago to the
Atlnntlc seaboard are being cut. They are
being cut , notwithstanding the denials , nnd
they have been cut for the last two weeks
nnd over. Some of the roads ara shading
the agreed grain tariff to the extent of 2' ' or
3 cents. The chances nre , moreover , that
they will be cut deeper yet before the openIng -
Ing of navigation. The agreement of the
Joint Traffic association 1ms not been strong
enough to keep the roads within bounds , al
though It has done far better than the old
Central Traffic association.
Every line doing business between Chicago
cage and St. Paul has now given In on the
proposition to extend the tickets to tlio thirty
day limit demanded by the members of the
Grand Army for their September encamp
ment. All the roads have applied to Chair
man Caidwell for permission to make the
extension and no matter what his decision
may be , they will make the extension. Under
the association agreement the roads can muko
any rates they please and grant nny limit
on their tickets that suits them , provided
they glvo to the chairman of the association
a ten days' notice of the Intention.

but an equalization , because some salaries
have been raised. But the Increases are
very few , and the amount In any Instance
does not exceed J2.DO per month , whlli > the
reductions amount to as high us $12,50. The
entire coast line In Washington suffers from
tbo change. Employes say the , cut Is In di

The use of the surgeon's knife Is be
coming so general , resulting fntnlly
in such n Inrge number of cases , ns to
occasion general nlnrtn. The rcs3 nl-
most daily ntiuouucca the dentil of some
( unfortunate whose system could not
withstand the shock of nn operation ,
nnd whose life was cruelly sacrificed to
the keen blndc of the surgeon.
Of course , Ju sonic instances nn
operation is necessary , nnd is the
only mentis of saving life , but such cnses
nre exceedingly rare. So ninny deaths
occur under these conditions , however ,
that the public is beginning to realize
that the doctors nre too hasty in resort
ing to the knife , and if such n stnte of
nffairs continues , there will before long
be n general uprising against such meas
ures. It is but reasonable to believe )
that the majority of operations arc
unnecessary , but when the fatnl mistake
is discovered too late , only the doctors
ever know of their error , nnd though a
precious life is given up , the public is
nssured thnt death would have resulted
in spite of the operation , and who is
ever the wiser ?
The folly of resorting to the knife in
cases of cancer , is demonstrated every
lime it is undcitaken. The disease is
in the blood mid the cancer or sore is
but vhe outward manifestation of a
terrible condition of the entire circula
tion. To cut out this sore , therefore ,
does not in any way effect the disease ,
nud it can easily be seen that ihe only
correct treatment is to get nt the seat of
the disease , nnd purify the blood ; the
sore will then heal up naturally. < 9.S.S.
is the most powerful blood remedy made ,
and is the only cure for cancer.

tTo submit to an operation , is to volutt *
arily endanger one's life , without the
lightest hope of being benelitted.
Mr. William Walpole , is a wealthy
_ lanter residing at Walshtowu , South
Dakota , nnd is well known all over the
state. Under date of January seth , 1896 ,
he writes ; " Aboutthreeyears ago , there
came under my left eye a little blotch
ibout the size of a small pea. It grew
anidly , and for the past year , shooting
wins ran in every direction. I became
.laruied and consulted a good doctor ;
rho pronounced it caiicerj and'said ' th'dt
t must be cut out. This I would not
cmseut to , having little faith in the in
discriminate use of the knife , though I
was alarmed at my condition. Reading
of the many cures made by S.S.S. , I
determined to give that medicine a trial ,
and after I had taken it a few days , the
cancer became irritated and began to dis
charge. Thisafterawhileccased , leaving
a small scab , which finally dropped off ,
and only a healthy looking little
"
scar remained to mark the" place where
the destroyer had held full sway .Words
arc inadequate to express my gratitude to
the great blood purifier , S. S. S. , and I
write this hoping that itniaybethemeaus
of leading other sufferers to n curt. " '
Cancer is not incurable , butthe , only
means of curing it is to rid the blood of
the disease. S.S.S. never fails to do
this , but it is the only remedy to be relied -
lied .upon. It is guaranteed purely
vegetable , and cures Cancer'Scrofula ,
Eczema , Catarrh , Rheumatism and any
other disease of the blood. Other blood
diseases often develop into such alarm ,
ing conditions that the doctors think an
operation necessary. Scrofula , for in
stance , often diseases the glands of the
neck to such an extent thnt nn operation
is looked upon as absolutely the only
relief. This is also u gruve error , ns the
disease is'in the blood and a real blood
remedy is the only cure.
An operation never did cure a blood
