New York, March 10. A remarkable

received orders to force an entrance
Into Pnrtmouth harbor. The subma

would be made at night, and when the
battleships were within range of the
fort, the latt'T opened a terrific fire.
Under cover of this cannonade four tor
pedo dewtroyers put to sea and steamed
toward the awiaHants. AlongBlde each
destroyer and close under her port
brain waa a submarine, screened from
the battleships.
The destroyers approached within
striking distance of the battleships
amid a fearful roar of blank ammuni
tion from the forts and ships. When
the appointed distance had been reach
ed the four destroyers fell back, putting
on all steam.
At the same Instant the submarines
sank and In a few minutes later arose,
one alongside each battleship and
claimed the bitter as their victims.
The crews of the submarines dis
played great skill an! endurance In
their work, but their claims to victory
are disputed by the officers of the bat

would have been Impossible in a real
engagement. '

Theatrical Bids Farewell to Friends Be
fore Submitting to Implacable
Knife of Surgeon.
New York, , March 10 Thomas J.
Magulre. treasurer of a theater here
and widely known In the profession of
the stage, has said farewell to bis
friends In preparation for a surgical
operation which will deprive him of
ever speaking again If, indeed, he sur
vives with his life.
Magulre came here in 1881 from San
Francisco, where he had been treas
urer of two leading theaters. For years
he had smoked 25 or more cigars dally
and this, It Is supposed, started a can
cerous growth at - the root of his
tongue. Thinking little of the irritation
Magulre neglected consulting a doctor
until recently and then it was found,
that the removal of his tongue would
be the only means of saving his life.
Magulre, after long deliberation, de
cided to undergo the operation,- but e
greatly has It preyed upon his mind
that his hair Is said to have turned
snowy white In the past six weeks.
BANKERS CONSIDER PROBLEM
OF SOUTHERN PACIFIC DEBT
Ne York, March 1(1. Bankers who
have assumed the financial guardian
ship of the Harrlman railroad system
have, according to the Herald, taken
up for serious consideration the prob
lem of unifying the funded debt of the
Southern Pacific system. It has been
generally known for a long time that
some comprehensive plan must be pre
pared In order to refund bonds which
mature In 1905.
The matter has been discussed In
formally by directors of the company
and various plans have been suggested.
The work of constructing a funded
mortgage estimated at $200,000,000 or
$300,000,000 has now been taken up in
detail for the first time, but It Is not
expected that the plan will be com
pleted for several months.
So intricate are the finances of the
Southern Pacific, owng to diversity of
its holdings that It has been doubted
whether any plan for uniforming the
the debts of the various companies In
the system could be devised, without
the creation of an entirely new corpor-
ation. ' t
Those who have undertaken the so
lution of the problem believe it can not
be reached however, without altering
the character of the Southern Pacific's
holding of any of its properties or or
iginating uny new device for welding
together the debts of the constituent
companies. '. ' . '
, The frame upon which the great plan,
will hang will be a general refunding
mortgage. . The amount will depend
upon how much of the debt of the sys
tem which aggregates 1368,513,419 cap.
be included In any refunding mortgage,
however broad In Us scope.
JDebts of some properties which
should be included in the refunding
scheme are held by ownership stock.
Others are held by lease. Some of the
operating companies are owned by
other operating companies and some
are held directly by Southern Pacific
Company, which is a Kentucky , cor
poration. It is difficult. In some in
stances, to carry out the plan of har
monizing and unifying the system
without coming into conflict with state
laWS. . :'f . ;.
It Is on account of the differences
presented by this complicated situation
that the work haa been started well In
advance of the time for its Inaugura
tion. V. 7V.. , .7' .

GAME NEAR DYING
From an Awful Skin Humoup.
Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Wasted to Skeleton.
CURED BYCUTICURA
One Application Soothed Him to
Sieep. Cure Speedy
and Permanent.
When my little boy was gbont thre
months old his bead broke out with a
rash, which was very itchy and ran con
siderable watery fluid. We tried every
thing we could, but be got worse all the
time till It spread to his arms, legs, and
then to his entire body, and he got so 1
bad that he came near dying. The rash .
would itch so that he would scratch till
the blood ran, and a thin yellowish stuff 'V
, would be all over his pillow in the morn
ing. I had to put mittens on his hands
to keep him from tearing his skin around
his wrists. He got so weak and run
down that he took fainting spells like '
we would think him dying. Ha was al
most a skeleton aud his little hand
were thin like claws.
"He was bad about eight months
when we tried Cutlcnra Remedies. I
had not laid him down in his cradle In
the daytime for a long time. He had
got so that he Just slept in our arms all
the time. I washed him with Cutlcnra
Soap and put-on one application of
Cuticura Ointment and he was so
soothed that I put him In the cradle.
You don't know how glad I felt when he
felt better. It took one box of Cu ticura
Ointment, pretty near one cake of Cuti
cura Soap, and about half a bottle of
Cuticura Resolvent, to cure. I think
our little boy would have died only for
the Cuticura Remedies, and I shall al- ,
ways remain a firm friend of them."
Mrs. M. C. MAITLAND, JisriB,
Ontario.
No return in 14 years. Mrs. Maltland
writes, under date of Feb. 24, 1303, that
the cure Is permanent.
" It affords me much pleasure to In
form you that it is fourteen years since
my boy was cured of the terrible skin
disease from which he suffered.

Is hearty and strong."
