MANY RURAL GUARDS DESERTING Government Forces Rscspture One Town — Attack by Rebels on Plnar Del Rio Expected. Havana, Aug. 25.— Unofficial advices received from the western part of the province of Pinar del Rio are to the effect that the insurgent forces now concentrating west of Ban Juan de Mar tinez are fai more formidable and bet ter supplied for camping and a long and aggressive campaign than had been supposed. A prominent resident of Havana whose word is beyond question, has just returned from a three days’ tour in the vicinity of Ban Luie and Ban Juan de Martinez. He informed the Associ ated Press that Pino Guerrera’ s follow ing in Pinar del Rio is now from 1,500 to 2,000 men. He said the idea of his not having sufficient ammunition was ridiculous, and that he is abundantly supplied with every possible necessity. The behavior of nis forces is excellent. He said the insurrectionists had eight mules loaded with dynamite and that lately they had received supplies from unknown sources. He positively declared that fully a hundred mem bers ol the rural guard had deserted and joined the insurrectionists since the trouble began, and that practically all Cubans in Western Cuba were sym pathizers with the movement Word has been received here from Santiago that General Jesus Rabi, with 2,000 veterans, w ill come to the Vuelta Abajo to help put down the insurrec tion. This, however, is not confirmed. The government’ s extra expenses since August 19 have been $270,000. Aside from slight encounters in the provinces of Havana and Santa Clara, nothing of importance haB tranepiied here. The enlistment ol rnral guards and volunteers is going on very slowly, in the provinces, but in the city of Havana enlistments are somewhat bet ter. The city council has appropriated $50,000 for the support of the city militia, of which there are two divis ions, the interior and the exterior. The government expects that the steamer Mexico, which will sail from New York today, w ill bring eight rapid-fire guna, 10,000,000 cartridges and 12,000 Lee rifles. The government force in the city of Pinar del Rio consists of 250 artillery men and 150 guards. The inhabitants of the city of Pinar del R<o are re ported to be loyal and it is said that most of them are armed and w ill assist the troops in resiatiBg an attak on the part of the insurgents.

Bomb Kills 27 Persona and Wounds O ver 30 Others. St. Petersburg, Aug. 26. — Twenty- eight persona are dead and more than 30 wounded as tha rem it of a dastardly attempt yesterday afternoon to awaae- inate Premier Stolypin with a bomb while be was bolding a public reception st his country house on Aptekassy is land. The premier was aligbtly wounded on the face and neck by flying splinter*. Among the dead ar* the premier’ s 15-year o’.d daughter, who bad both legs broken by the explosion and sub sequently succumbed to her injuries; General Zamatin, the premier’ s person al secretary; M. Khosvoff, ex-governor >f the province of Penta; Colonel Fod- jroff, chief of the premier’ s peitonal guard; Court Chamberlain Davidoff, Chamberlain Voornin, Aid Doubasoff, Prince Nakashidge, Police Officer Ko- nunzeff, several guards, several ser vants. four women and two children. The wounded include M. Stolypin’s 3-year old son, who is seriously if not fatally injured, and a number of per sons prominent in the society and offi cial world. O! the four conspirators who engi neered the outrage, two were killed with their victims, while the third, who acted as coachman for the party, and the fourth, who remained inside the carriage, were badly wounded. Whether the assassins who entered the crowded reception hall threw the bomb or accidentally dropped it prob ably w ill never be known, as all the immediate eye witnesses were killed The tremendous force of the explosion absolutely blew ont the front of the premier’s residence, and carried away the ceilings above and the floors be neath and the walls of the adjoining rooms. People were literally blown to pieces. Those who were not killed instantly were horribly mangled and the others were prostrate by the shock. The pre mier’s escape was miraculous, for only a moment before the explosion he had stepped inside his study at the rear of the salon to apeak to Prince Shakoveky. Although be was bnt slightly injured, be is completely prostrated by the ca lamity. The havoc wrought by the explosion was indescribable. Bodies were so torn or mangled as to make identification impossible, some of them headless, armless or legless, lying among the blood-dripping wreckage. RAILWAY GIANTS CLASH, $ 2 5,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 Cash and St. Paul Road is the Prize at Stake. Chicago, Aug. 27.— A special to the Tribune from New York says: A financial battle, with $25,000,000 in cash and the control of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway system ie on between J. Pierpont Morgan and E. H Harriman. In the battle are involved twire as many millions of dollars and three times as many thousands of miles of railroads as were represented in the famous fight for the possession of the Chicago, Burlington A Quincy, which resulted in the memorable Northern Pacific corner, when the price of that stock was rnshed up to $1,000 a share and a panic in W all street followed. The opposing force* consist of J. P. Morgan, James J. H ill and their friends, foreign capitalists, on one side, and E. I I. Harriman, practical owner of the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific roads, with Sir William Van Horne, Sir Thomas Shangbneesy, as controllers of the vast Canadian Pacific system, with their friends, on the other. Re maining neutral for the time being, but inclined to throw their weight to Har riman, are James H. Smith and W il liam Rockefeller, as principal stock holders in the St. Paul. On the outcome of the war depends whether the St. Paul road ie to be ex tended to the coast, for which purpose a new $25,000,000 stock issue was voted, in a northerly direction, and so seriously injure the traffic of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific systems, or southerly, to impair the future pro fits of the Union and Southern Pacific. Early this summer there was a mys terious bunching ol tbres Pacific coast lines stock. Before Harriman or H ill could discover who were the purchas ers, the Canadian Pacific had obtained sufficient interest in the road to wield the balance of power._______ Revive Slensland Bank.

" _____________ _ SKIN DISEASES ACNE, TETTER, ECZEMA, PSORIASIS, There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burn ing skin disease, and upon the return of warm weather those who are afflicted with skin troubles find the symptoms appear- C A I T R H E U M ing and know that they will be tormented through the hot ^ ^ * l i l l t U M . summer months. The blood is heated with humors and acrid matter, and as they are forced to the surface the skin seems to be on fire. T h e treatment of skin diseases with exter nal applications is all wrong, because they do not reach the trouble which is in the blood. The most such treatment can be expected to do is, allay the itching and burning and cover up the trouble for awhile, but as soon as it is left off the disease returns. A ll food taken into the body contains, in some form, the elements necessary to sustain the different parts. One portion is used for T H E IT C H IN G W A S A L M O S T U N B E A R A B L E . the making of blood, another for muscle, Dear Sira— M y body broke out w ith a rash or eruption one for bone, still another for fat, and so on. whloh in spite of all efforts to our* oontinned to get worse.

M ARNO. of the year, however, these organs become torpid, dull and sluggish, and fail to perform this duty,"and tnese accumulations remain in the system and are absorbed by the blood to ferment and sour, producing burning acids and acrid humors. The blood cannot properly nourish the system while in this impure condition, and begins to throw off these acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Acne, Eczema, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin diseases of every description. ECZEMA appears usually with a slight redness of the skin, followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, arms, legs and face, though other parts of the body may be afflicted. In TETTER the skin dries, cracks and bleeds, and is often very painful. T h e acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, causing a dry, feverish, hardened condition and givin g it a leathery appearance. AONE makes its appearance on the face in the form of pimples and black-heads, and is particularly disagreeable because of its unsightly appear ance, while PSORIASIS, a scaly disease, comes in patches on different parts of the body. One of the worst forms of skin disease is SALT RHEUM, It discharges a watery fluid, form ing sores and producing intense itching. T h e head and face are the parts usually affected, and sometimes the hair falls out and a mass of sores forms on the scalp. These and all skin diseases are due to the same cause— burning acids and humors in the blood, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they will continue. T h e best treatment for all skin diseases is S. S. S., a remedy that is purely vegetable, being made en tirely from roots, herbs and barks, and acts directly on the blood with a cleansing, healing effect. It neutralizes the acids and purifies the blood so that the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a supply of cooling, healthy blood. It goes down into the circulation and forces out every particle of waste or foreign matter, builds up the blooa and cures all skin diseases promptly and permanently. S. S. S. does not leave the least par ticle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely rids the blood of the cause for all skin diseases. S. S. S. tones up the system and regulates the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels so that they w ill carry off the natural waste and refuse matter through the proper channels, instead of leaving it to be absorbed by the blood. Nothing equals S. S. S. in the treatment of these troubles and for building up the general health. W rite for our treatise on skin diseases and any medical advice you wish.
