New York, June 23. A special to the
Herald from Washington save : Presi
dent McKinley will authorize the enlist
ment of additional men for the Philip
pines wbeu he returns to Washington.
There is the understanding of well in
formed war department officials. The
administration has at least come to rec
ognize the necessity of reinforcing Gen
eral Otis' command. It is apparent that
some department officials are figuring
on the advisability of enlisting sufficient
men to form ten complete regiments.
Acting Secretary of War Meiklejobn
said if the president authorized ad
ditional men, the number would be de
termined after a consultation with Gen
eral Otis. It would not be surprising
were the department to hear from Gen
eral Otis before the return of the presi
dent, in order that the latter may be
supplied with the necessary information
in order to take immediate action.
"In any event," said Mr. Meiklejobn
"there is little probability of a formal
call for volunteers. State organizations
will not be accepted, although there are
many applications on file from them for
muster in and be dispatched to the Phil
ippines. The president, I think, author
ized the department to direct its recruit
ing officers to make enlistments, and 1
am confident that men can be obtained
in such numbers as to form a complete
organization and be ready for service
with General Otis during the fall
months."
Should the president authorize the
formation of ten regiments, recruiting
officers who will have to obtain 15,700
men to fill tbem. At least 4000 men will
be required for the three volunteers or
ganizations which General Otis has au
thority to organize, making about 20,000
of the 35,000 meo of the provisional
army, the enlistment of which is au
thorized by law.
President McKinley's policy in regard
to the future form of government for the
Philippines and Cuba is still undefined,
but regardless of what future develop
ments may bring forth as to our attitude
toward those islands, be and tne mem
bers Of the cabinet fully appreciate that
the military governments in all of our
dependencies must give way to civil gov
ernment as speedily as possible. Pre
liminary to the establishment of civil
government, the cabinet has concluded
that there should be a new civil depart
ment with a cabinet at its head in
augurated and have control of the new
governments which sooner or later will
be formed. "

life a burden. All other remedies and

says of this Royal Cure "It soon re

scarcely remember doing before. I feel
like sounding its praises throughout the

DEMOCRATS ARE
STRUGGLING
Have Not Yet Passed the Temporary
Organization Point Will Indorse
Bryan for President and Black
burn for Senator.
LoTjisviLLE, Ky., June 23. The third
day of the Democratic state convention
is still working under the temporary or
ganization. The committee on creden
tials labored with the 357 contested seats
until long after midnight and then left
its task unfinished. The majority of the
committee on resolutions has drawn up
a platform endorsing Bryan for the presi
dential nomination in 1900 and Black
burn for Philippines. The fight between
the three United States senators, making
free silver again the prominent issue, re
affirming the Chicago platform in its en
tirety and containing a strong anti-trust
plank.
In regard to the policy to be pursued
in dealing with the new possessions, the
majority is conservative. The war with
Spain to secure the liberty of Cuba was
sustained, but the adminstration is
blamed for pushing the campaign in the
candidates for the nomination for gov
ernor is being warmly waged with the
advantage with thn Goebel-Stone com
bination, which controls the organiza
tion. The convention was called to order
at 9:30 a. m., and after the adoption of
eulogistic resolutions in memory of the
late Congressman Bland, took a recess
nntil 4 this afternoon to await the report
of the committee on credentials.

PORTER FOR

fill Prolally lie at flsai of Colonial
Affairs
NEW EXECU
TIVE BRANCH
Of the Government Is Necessary to
. Meet the Conditions Now Gather
- ing Information.
New York, June 25. A special to the
Herald from Washington says : A new
executive branch of the government
with the title, "Department of Colonial
Affairs and Foreign Commerce," or
something similar to it, is deemed by
the administration absolutely necessary
to meet new conditions which confront
the United States as a result of the war
with Spain.
The word "colonial" is repugnant for
political reasons to some of the mem
bers of the cabinet, because it smackB of
imperialism, and it is probable that
some other title will be adopted. The
meaning, however, will be the same.
Preliminary to recommendations to con
gress on this subject, data is now being
complied concerning the control of the
colonies by foreign powers and the
extension of our commerce into foreign
fields, and members of the cabinet and
subordinate officials of the administra
tion are giving much thought and time
to the details of the proposed new de
partment. American consuls' on duty in the
colonies belonging to foreign powers, es
pecially those of Great Britain, are to
be called upon for full reports upon a
list of questions now preparing for sub
mission to them. Robert P. Porter, who
is looked upon as the probable bead of
the proposed cabinet office when created,
will be consulted in regard to the plans
for extending foreign commerce, which
is to become a feature of ' the new de
partment. Last fall I sprained my left hip while
handling some heavy boxes. The doctor
I called on said at first it was a slight
strain and would soon be well, but it
grew, worse and the doctor then said I
had rheumatism. It continued to grow
worse and I could hardly g.-t around to
work. I went to a drug etore and the
druggist recommended me to try Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. I tried it and one
half of a 50-cent battle cured me entire
ly. I now recommend it to all my
friends. F. A. Babcoce, Erie, Pa. It
