TO BE HELD LIABLE
Finding That the Maine Was
Blown Up by Design.
MADRID HAS M'.EX SO NOTIFIED
jhe Court of Iniulry Ha Concluded lt
InrrHtlffHtloun, Mini Mtliinilttuil
It million to Hlcftrd.
Kky Whist, Mar. 22. Tho United
States court of Inquiry into the loss of
the Mninu Iisih nt lust flnluliod its luho
rlons work of investigation of tlio dlttae
ter anil submitted its report to Hear-
Admiral Sienril. Ho Iiub pointed out
come altcrntiuiiB which ho cotiBiilers
necessary, and the report will probably
betaken to Washington today by Lien
tenant'Coininamlor Marix, jutlge-advo-cite
of the court. It ifl posHible, how
ever, that its arrival in WanhiiiRton niny
II be delayed several dove longer. Rear-
Admiral Sieard mild laBt night :
"I could scarcely Bay the report will
leave tomorrow. The court lias practlc
illy finished its work, but boiiio details
nay chkK 'tf) attention long enough to
keep the report here Hoveral days. I
trait-, howBverr that tho navy depart
uent will have the documents) in a short
lime."
The dfcisinn reached by the court is
still a matter of Burmiso, Porhups some
tljnificntico may bo attached and con
clailons drawn from a remark made by
Rear-Admiral Sicurd last night, when he
laid to a correspondent :
"The Case of tho Muino ia most pecu
liar, perhaps the nioHt peculiur which
bis ever happened In tho history of the
world."
From the general tone of his remarke,
It might he inferred that the court's
findings do not definitely eolve the mys
tery of the explosion. Thia is further
birnootit liy tho admiral's statement
that even after the report had been sent
to Washington tho department may re
quire a further investigations. The gen
eral impression continues to provull that
the court Imd found that the Maine was
intentionally blown up, but no new ron
ton! have been adduced for tliiH conclu
sion. The battleship Indiana baa arrived
bere from the Tortugaa islands and an
chored alonuside tho battleship Iowa
and the cruUer New York, six miles
Irotn the Bhore.
A Crisis in Chill.
New Youk, Mar. 22. A Valporaiao
iptclal says :
Chile is confronted by another minis
terial crisis. Members of the cabinet
hve been dismissed, and to Senor I5u
lojoAItamarina lias. been trusted tho
ork of forming a now one. Tho confl
dweofall political parties is Bought
not by the government in view of the
Ktiouinessof internal and loreign af
itiri, In private circles one hears nothing
batwartalk.lt is generally believed tliat
Jwacontoct is unavoidable, but there
'rd reason to beliove that Chile will
declaro war. Argentina will not
oao on account of her having so much
tolooie,

Inliiiin Cannot ho Cured
by local applications, nB they cannot
reach tho 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 u rumbling Bound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
uuleBB the inflammation can be taken
out und this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine ciiwh out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Wo will give One Hundred Dollars for
