WORK FOR WOODFORD,
Xew Minister Must Bring;
Spain to Terms. j
TO GET THE KUIZ CLAIM SETTLED
Hf Mut l'renare Spain for the Inevi
table nml Present McKinley' l'lan
for l)U(al of Cuba.
Cnicuio. June IS. A special to the'
Times-Herald from Washington says:
Spain is to be brought to terms. Gen-1
ral Setwnrt L. Woodford, the new min-1
ister to Spain, after dining with Presi-!
dent McKinley last night, spent
ti,p
evening at the White House. He re
ceived instructions as to his work in the
Spanish capital, for which he will start
in a week or two.
General Woodford's task is divided in
to tbree parts. His first mission will
be to present a demand for reparation
and indemnity for the death of Dr. Ruiz.
His second task is to prepare the Span
ish government for the inevitable, and
the inevitable is the loss of Cuba as a
colony. The third phase of his work is
the presentation of a distinct proposal
from the United States as to the dis
position of Cuba.
It is as to the first and second chapters
that General Woodford is now conferring
with the president. He will receive full
instructions.' as to the third either before
he sails or as soon as he Ehall have had
an opportunity to report upon the state
of mind in which he finds the Spanish
ministry and the queen regent
President McKinley also
illSirucic'J
General Woodford to impress upon
the
pnblic men at Madrid these vital points: !
1. The United is not actuated by an
unfriendly ieeling against Spain.
2. The United States does not desire
to take advantage of Spain's troubles
with her colony to bring about the
annexation of Cuba to this country.
3. But unless Spain will herself make
a move toward meeting the inevitable,
toward eivinp Cuba freedom, the United
1 1
States will be compelled to interfere and
in the case of intervention annexation
' might naturally follow.
Cauoras Anxious to Settle.
New Yoi:k, June IS. A dispatch
to
the World from Madrid Eaye :
Premier Canovas is willing to pay the
widow of Dr.Ruiz $40,000 if the United
States government will not press an offi
cial claim. The announcement of this
fact has aroused public opposition, which
the Madrid press is inflaming. The
newspapers biame the government for
allowing Ruiz to be killed, but ceneure
it most for acknowledging it. They eay
Spain is "under tne iron heel of the
Yankees."

Senate Mill Nt Katiry It During the
lreent Svgloti,
Washington-, June IS. Senator Davis,
chairman of the senate committee on
foreign relations, said today that he
would not make an etFort to press the
Hawaiian treaty to final consideration
in the senate during the present ses
sion. "While opposition to Die ratification
is not formidable as to numbers," he
said, "it already has been made evident
that it will bequite determined, and this
fact, coupled with the impossibility of
holding a quorum after the passage of
the tariff bill, has already forced the con
clusion that an e.Fort to spcure imme
diate action would be futile. Hence it
will not be made."
He said in reply to a question that he
as a . i i- .1 ,
'ld not belleve tlie committee would be
e
disposed to give ex-Queen Liliuokalani
a verbal hearing.
Bacon to the doctrine that he (Bacon)
wanted his share of the plunder, if there
was to be tariff robbery, but Bacon re
pudiated this and said lie wanted the
benefit equalized. Tillman bluntly in
terjected that if there was to be plun
dering he would see that South Carolina
got her Ehare.

Deafness Cannot he Cured
by local applications, aa they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it ia en
tirely closed, Deafness ia the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken '
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine chss out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which ia nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused Dy catarrh)
that cannot he cured by Hall'a Catarrh
