These conlldt'iitial reports reveal at'ood deal nioro discord among tlio American provincial rutura than is unually believed to exist.

It may bo a question whether the editor of a newspaper has the riuht to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet nn a preventive of sufreririK wo feel it a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhnea liemody. AVe liavo known and used thia medicine in our family lor twenty years atid hayo ala nys found it reliable. In many cases a dose of this remedy would save hours of Eufrerititr while a physician is awaited. We do not believe in depending implicitly oti any mcdicino for a cure, but we do believe ttiat if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Itemed' was kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack, much Fullering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of a physician would not bo riqulred.

SITUATION IS MOST GRAVE Canada Will Send Mounted Police There United States Will Send Troops to Pyramid Harbor. Ciiicaoo, July 11. A rpecial to the Tribune from Washington eays: An intimation hae been received by the state department that the Canadian government will send a forco of mounted police to the Porcupine region in British Columbia. If this ia done, the United States government will respond by send ing troops to Pyramid harbor to protect the interests of the American citizens. The situation is extremel) grave, and will call for delicate work on the part of both governments to preserve peac. The Porcupine region is part of tho territory now in dispute, which would be neutral ground if a modus vivendi were agreed upon. This is the point where a clash catno near being precipi tated some time ago between Ameiican and Canadian miners. At that time this govornment ordered troops to Pyra mid harbor to pieserve the peace. This action came to the notice of tlio British embassy here, and it was brought to the attention of the Salisbury govern ment, which entered a protest and re quostod that tho orders bo canceled. This was done and the Canadian govern ment agreed to withdraw its mounted police. Both governments have lived up to their agreement, and eicca that time neither American troops nor Canadian mounted police have been in tho Por cupine region. The hopeful view expressed by the British colonial office is also entertained here, nd notwithstanding the critical condition of tho diplomatic negotiations, it ia still belitved an amicable agree ment can be had. There will be no hesitation on'tho part of the officials, however, to send troops to Pyramid har bor if the Canadians should send a foico of policemen near the Amrrican line. DISSOLUTION NOTICE.
