London, Feb. 17. Another blue book on Armenia was published today, the dispatches covering the period between September 3, 1883, and February 11, 1896. It contains the tables prepared by a committee of delegates from the em bassies of the six powers, showing that the total number of persons massacred, concerning whose fate accurate infor mation has been obtained, is 25,000. Cl'KZOS'B KEPLY. It Deals With. .Russia's Movements in Armenia. London, Feb. 17. Under Secretary of the Foreign Office George N. Gurzon, re plying in the house of commons today to questions, said the powers had not in formed Russia that her occupation of Armenia wonld not be objected to. Such occupation, he added, without the con sent of the sultan, would be in violation of the treaties of Paris and Berlin. Cur zon also said the statement of the Rus sian minister of foreign affairs, Prince Lobanoff Rostovaky, that Russia was willing to undertake to maintain order in Armenia was spontaneous. THE REMEDIAL. BILL. Both Sides Preparing for a Bard Fight in Manitoba. Chicago, Feb. 17. A dispatch from Winnipeg says: In the face of the remedial bill just in troduced at Ottawa to restore the Roman Catholic separate schools in this pro vince, the Dominion government, under Sir Charles Tupper, will make a big ef fort to retain the Bupport of Manitoba's members in the Dominion house. It has been arranged to hold a big conservative convention here within a fortnight, and Sir Charles Tupper wires that he will attend and lully explain the govern ment's position on the school question. Sir Donald A. Smith, the millionaire of Montreal, who laid the foundation for his fortune in Manitoba, and has large interests here, will be invited to be the candidate for Winnipeg. Sir Donald will arrive here during the day. Prem ier Greenway and hia government de cline to take any action on the school question until tney officially receive a copy of the remedial bill. Then they will, no doubt, give notice of vigorous resistance. A POLITICAL CRISIS. MUNITIONS Ot WAR. Condition of Affairs in France Very Threatening. Paris, Feb. 17. The political crisis arising out of the demand of the senate for a vigorous inqairy into the Southern railroad scandal is practically a struggle between the chamber of deputies, which has supported the radical ministry, and the senate, which seems bent upon over throwing it, even at the cost of serious disturbance. There is little excitement this morn ing outside the newspaper offices. It is claimed the resignation af the ministry would not alter the matter to any great extent, as it appears to be no longer a question of confidence or of non-confi dence in the cabinet. The chamber of deputies, it is asserted, has practically, by defying the senate, endangered the constitution, and the result is a condi tion of affairs about as threatening as any since the troublesome times of 1870-71. The conservatives and socialists de mand the dissolution of parliament. The moderates and republicans agree that dissolution is advisable, but claim it. should take place under another cabinet. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U.S. Gov't Report 7 t n Large Quantities Received by Cubans Recently. - New York, Feb. 17. A dispatch to the World from Kingston, Jamaica, says: Several invalid Cubans who have ar rived here report that immense stores of munitions of war have been received by the insurgents, which have enabled them to take measures for the occupa tion of the city ot Santiago the moment the United States recognizes . them. General Weyler's advent has compelled them to take prompt and decisive action. The Big Fight Is Off. El Paso, Tex., Feb. 17. At the con ference today after Julian and Connolly had wrangled some minutes, Fitz9im mons broke in with great heat and de clared that as long as he could not get the $1000 forfeit money, he would not fight. Turning to Connelly he said : ion are an a pact ot curs ; . you are afraid to fight, and your man has. not been able to get into condition because he has been afraid all along." Waving hia arms, he yelled to the newspapermen and spectators, "Gentle men, the whole thing is off; I refuse to fight Maher unless I am paid my forfeit money. I am willing to fight Maher, Corbett or any man in the world." Julian .made a proposition that Con noil ey name five men and he would ac cept their decision. Connolly ' agreed. The committee named by Connolly was Siler, Houseman, Fitzgerald, Nanghton, and O'Rourke, Stuart being requested to act as chairman. The committee decid ed that the articles of agreement of Dec ember 5, were abrogated Friday, and under the circumstances Julian could not justly claim the forfeit. You hear it almost everywhere, and read it in the newspapers, that Simmons Liver Regulator is the best liver remedy, and the best Spring medicine, and the best blood medicine. "The only medi cine of any consequence that I use is Jmons Liver Regulator." So wrote kr. R. A. Cobb, of Morgantown, N. C. And W. F. Park.M. D., ot Tracy City, Tenn, writes : .
