A 8traae;e Nervous Disease.
Among the natives of the Philippines,
according to a correspondent of the
Medical News, New York, "there is
occasionally found a peculiar nervous
disease called mali-mali, the victims of
which seem to be impelled by an un
controllable impulse to imitate the
movements of any one they sen before
them. Sometimes the disease will lie
dormant while the victim goes quietly
about his work, but if frightened or
excited in any way he will Immediately
begin to imitate every motion of any
person Who attracts his attention. If a
person snfferlng from this disease be
comes angry he shrieks and raves like
a maniac, at the same time continuing
his mimicking performances. OKI
women are the most common victims of
mali-mali, though men are sometimes
attacked. Some people beliove that
the imitation mania, as it is sometimes
called, is always assumed and that the
protended victims can control their
antics if they try, as they are often at
tacked in the presence of Europeans
from whom they hope to obtain alms;
but there is no doubt that the symp
toms of this disease are generally real,
and that such a disease exists is cer

Spats Wee Compelled to See for Feao
Text at the Negotiations.
London, Sept. 10. According to tin
Madrid correspondent of the Times, thi
following is the text of the negotiation!
of the government to conolndo peaco:
"The reverses suffered by our arm;
In the unequal struggle to which wi
wore driven in order to defend the hono.
of the nation and maintain its rights,
deprived us, at an early stage, of the
elomeuts required for continuing the
war. The bravery of our soldiers and
sailors proved insufficient, as did the
calm attitude of the nation, ever ready
to shod its blood and sacrifice resources
for the honor of the Spanish Hag.
"Separated by wide seas from the
territories it was out object to protect,
and those territories boing closely block
aded, 10 that our few remaining ships
conld not reach them, her majesty
government has beon compelled to ad
mit the bitter truth, that an end must
be put to the war
"The sense ot responsibility entallod
by the preliminary peace negotiations
had weighed heavily on the govern
ment Notwltstanding it fully appre
ciated its duty towards the Country,
the government has had to consent to
these preliminary negotiations and to
bow to the cruel saoiilices Imposed by
sheer necessity.
"Fi)r this reason, and because poacs
must be purchasod at the cost of oceslon
of territory and the abandonment of
sovereign rights, tho government has
thought it expedient to sound the cortos
before concluding the treaty, the ratifi
cation of which will be duly notified
to both chambers in accordance with
constitutional law."
Tho government, whoso moderate
language will not be found fault witl
by the representatives of the nations;
limits itself to submitting to the oortet
the following bill, whose only article
is: '
"The government Ih authorized to
renounce rights of sovereignty and to
oede territory in the Spanish colonies
in accordance with the peace prelimin
aries agreed noon with the government
of the United Statos of America."
The Times correspondent says th
bill iB signed by all tho ministers.
GAVE THE PRESIDENT A FLAG.

icans In I'orto Uloo.
Washington, Sept. 10. By direotioe

which was captured by American troops
at Coamo, Porto Rico. It was taken

teenth Pennsylvania volunteers, to
gether with 300 Spanish prisoners, who
were endeavoring to retreat.
Colonel Biddle, who was accompa
nied by Captain Harry Alvin Hall, ol
the Sixteenth Pennsylvania infantry,
made the presentation speech. Tlx
president, in reply, oomplimentod the
American troops on their courage and
soldierly conduct throughout the cam
paign. When the committee left the Whiti
House the flag was sent to the adjutant
general's office, where It will remain
until it Is pnt on exhibition, probably
at the national museum.
DUTIES ON RELIEF SUPPLIES,
Spain's Exorbitant Demand May Not
Be Complied Wtth.
Washington, Sept. !. The ordei
directing the payment of the Spanish
duty on rations carried by the Comal
to Havana for the starving inhabitant!
of Cuba has been hold up, pending fur
ther information on the subject. In
answer to 'a cable message as to what
the duty would be, a reply stated that
it would be, according to the Spanish
rates, $60,000 in gold. No agent oi
the United States government has any
money on hand at Havana, and it may
be that the United States government
will take a Differ ont course than that
decided upon last evening.
; By the terms of the protocol, Spain
relinquishes her right to Cuba, and the
United States government may deoide
that it will not pay duties on such oar
goes as are sent in the Comal.
Government la Isolated,
Madrid, Sept. 10. Newspapers as
sert that the government Is surprised
and chagrined at the attitude of the
conservatives of the chamber, whiah
indicates that the government is iso
lated on questions ofjsuoh magnitudo as
the conclusion of the peace treaty.
Continuing, the ' papers express the
opinion that this foreshadows the down
fall of the ministry. The chamber did
not meet today. The oabinot this
morning decided to take the most strin
gent measures to prevent the publica
tion of the proceedings ot the cortes,
and to provide for a censorship of tele
graphic dispatohes.

simplicity of tho combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fie Syrup

given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It Is
