AMERICANS ABOUT
TO ADVANCE
The Second Oregon Made a Part of
General Wheaton's Brigade, Sev
enteenth Regulars Releaved Them.
Manila, March 1211 :30 a. m. In all
probability the current week will see the
. beginning of an active campaign on a
scale hitherto unknown in the Filipinos.
For the last few days there has been un
usual activity at headquarters, and there
is every indication of a complete reorgan
ization of the entire corps in the near
future. .
Since the arrival of tbe American re
inforcements several changes have been
made, the most important being tbe ap
pointment of a divisional brigade under
General Wheaton, consisting of the
Twentieth and Twenty-second regiments
of infantry, eight com panics of the Wash
ington and seven companies of the Ore
gon volunteers, three mounted troops
of caValry and a battalion of light artil
lery. All tbe troops have disembarked. A
battalion of the Fourth regular infantry
is already on the firing line, assigned to
General McArthur'a division. The others
have been beld in reserve, and are en
camped on the Lnneta parade ground.
A battalion of the Seventeenth regulars
have been assigned to protest guard,- re
lieving the Oregon volunteers.
During a rainstorm whicb occurred be
fore daylight this morning the rebels on
the extreme left fired eeveral volleys at
the Americans, but without effect.
Otherwise everything is quite.
half digested food. There is a feeling of
oppression and heavinees in tbe chest
caused by pressure of the distended
stomach on the beart and lungs, inter
fering with their action ; hence arises
palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irri
tates and weaken b the beart.
The most sensible treatment for beart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the proiupt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores, and which
contain valuable,- .harmless digestive
elements in a pleasant, convenient form.
It is safe to say that the regular per
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
at meal time will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer of thd
stomach.
Full sized package of these tablets
sold by drnegists at 50 cents. Little
book on stomach troubles mailed free,

Manila, March 11 3:15 p. m. At
daylight the rebels were caught enfilad
ing the entrenchments at Calocan, and
were shelled by a battery. Desultory
firing also took place at San Pedro Macati.
The United States cruiser Charleston
has relieved the armed transport Buffalo
off Paranaqae.
The last batch of Spanish soldiers'
numbering 885 men, excepting a few,
who are in the hospital, were embarked
on the transport Buenos Avers today.
HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLE,
Do Not Be Alarmed, But Look For
Cause.
the
Heart troubles, at least among tbe
Americans, are certainly increasing, and
while this may be largely due to the ex
citement and worry of American busi
ness life, it is more often tbe result of
weak stomachs, of poor digestion. .-
Real organic disease is incurable ; but
not, one case in a hundred of heart
trouble is organic. - '
The close relation between "beart.
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by the same
. great nerves, the Sympathetic and Pnen
xnogastric' .
In another way, also the heart is- ef
fected by the form of poor digestion
which causes gas fermentation : from

Not the Place for Officers' Families.
Washington, March 11. The war de
partment today issued the -following
cablegram from General Otis :
" "Manila is not tbe place for officers'
families ; the great difficulty experienced
in caring for those now here, and their
safety, is one of the chief causes of
anxiety. Officers' families should
main in the Uulted States."
Under such conditions the secretary
of war regrets that no more families of
officers or enlisted men will be permitted
to accompany the troops. The families
of officers, for which quarters are legally
provided, will be permitted to retain
their quarters at posts from which tbe
troops depart.
Must Make Choice of Two Evils.
Peking, March 11. The Italian min
ister here, Signor Martine, addressed a
note to tbe Chinese foreign office yester
day evening, requesting it to give back
the Italian dispatch asking for a con
cession, and notifying the foreign office
to accept tbe latter request as a demand,
adding that be was willing to enter into
friendly negotiations as to the details,
but insisting upon an answer within
four days.
Thenpte was couched in courteous
terms, but the Chinese regard it in the
nature of an ultimatum, to which they
will probably yield.
Congressman-Greene, of Nebraska Dead.
Omaha, March 11. Congressman W.
L. Greene, of tbe sixth Nebraska district,
died suddenlv of heart failure in the Bur
lington station in this city at 7 o'clock.
Mr. Greene arrived this morning from
Washington, and spent the day with
friends in the city. At 7 :45' p. m., he
left his hotel for the train in company
with three friends. On arriving at the
depot he was found to be in an uncon
scious condition, and was taken to tbe
station, where he soon expired.
Bow to PreTOnt Pneumonia.
You are perhaps aware that pneu
monia always results from a cold or from
an attack of La Grippe. During the
epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in pneu
monia, )t was observed that the attack
was never followed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was used.
It counteracts any tendency of a cold or
La Grippe to result in that dangerous
disease. It is the best remedy in tbe
world for bad co'lds and La Grippe.

Havana, Cnba, March 11. The Cu
ban military assembly, in public session
this afternoon, impeached General
Maximo Gomez and removed him from
his command as general-in-chief of the
Cuban army, the first ballot result
ing in twenty-six votes being cast in sup
port of the motion to, impeach and re
move General Gomez, against four in
re j-opposition. Tbe original motion pro
vided for the abolition of tbe grade of
general-in-chief, but an amendment was
offered to this by Senor Aguerro, which
read : '
"To abolish the grade of general-in-chief,
and remove General Gomez, for
failure in bis military duties and diso
bedience to the aesembly."
Much passion was evident in the
speeches, in some of which Gomez was
declared to have been delinquent in his
duties and disobedient, because be had
accepted the proposition of Robert F.
Porter, President McKinley's special
emissary, without consulting the as
sembly; because be had taken upon
himself arrangements for the payment
and disarming of Cuban troops, inde
pendent of tbe assembly, and because
be bad .declared to tbe assembly that
he would observe its rulings in so far as
he could see them beneficial to Cuba.
The assembly then declared that $3,
000,000 is sufficient, and that it has not
yet accepted the proposition. Tbe dis
cussion of this question will soon be
taken up, now that General Gomez
