Currency Reform Message Will Be Sent
to Congress.
Wasaington, July 9. The main topic
of discussion before the cabinet at the
n.eeting today was the message on the
subject of a currency commission which
has been withheld for a few days in de
ference to the wiBhes of many promi
nent republicans. After considering all
of the objections that had been made
against the presentation of the message,
the president and cabinet are still of the
opinion that in order to follow the part

should be treated with in a message rec

there is a change in the plans of the

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the dieeased 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 is en
tirely closed, Deafness is 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 cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free.

L.ona;-Threatened Invasion of That Prov
ince Has Begun.
New Yoee, July 9. A Herald dis'
patch from Havana says:
The threatened invasion of Matanzas
province by the insurgents has begun
Several large bodies of Cubans have
crossed the line from Santa Clara and
the strength of the force engaged in the
westward movement is estimated from
4000 to 6000. La Crete and Herie, who
recently crossed the Jucaro and Moron
trocba and passed into Santa Clara from
Uamaguay, have united with other lead
ers, and there are now five or six chiefs,
each with a considerable following, mov
ing into Matanzas, where the insurgent
forces were ordered to mobilize. Men
have been summoned from the planta
tions around and ordered westward.
Whether the movement was ordered
to embarrass General Weyler or to dis
tract attention from General Gomez,
who it supposed to be hemmed in by
Spanish columns near Sancti Spiritns, is
not yet clear. It may do both.
The purpose of the gathering
tanzas is said to cover the
of an epedition which is due
province, and which will furnish the
combined forces with some addition
al arms and cartridges and several rapid
fire field guns. After receiving this ex
pedition the programme mapped out by
General Gomez is for an advance across
Matanzas province, and if all goes well
a demonstration near the city of Havana
itself.
Quintin Banderas, who recently came
from the East with 1600 men, and who
was in Melana del Sur two weeks ago,
has gone to Matanzas. The entire force
of rebels nnder Castillo in this province
is ready to join with those in the eastern
province. Duccasse and his force of
2500 to 3000 men may come from Pinar
del Bio to take part in the movement.
General Calixto Garcia will remain in
Santiago province, but practically all the
other leaders of prominence of the insur
gent side have been ordered to meet in
Matanzas.
Just what opposition the Spanish
troops will make to the movement is not
certain. The sudden activity in the
rebel ranks after the rainy season has
well begun to show that they are able to
move, despite the muddy condition of
the roads, and frequent' drenchings
which they must receive. Any forced
marches of large bodies of Spanish
troops to head off the rebel movement
must result in heavy losses from sick
ness, hardship and exposure.

With the close of the Presidential Campaign THE TRIBUNE recognizes the
fact that the American people are now anxious to give their attention to home and
business interests. To meet this condition, politics will have far less epace and
prominence, nntil another State or National occasion demands a renewal of the
fight for the principles for which THE TRIBUNE has labored from its inception
to the present day, and won its greatest victories.
Every possible effort will be put forth, and money freely spent, to make THE
WEEKLY 'TRIBUNE pre-eminently a National Family Newspaper, interesting;,
