Kew York, April 21.—A special to the Tribune from Washington says: Fourteen thousand regulars are to be sent to reinforce Gen. Otis at Manila as soon as the necessary marine transportation can be provided. The first regiment to be ordered will probably be the Seventh artillery of which the two light batteries, C. and M., have been ordered home from Porto Rico for the purpose. They will be sent at once to San Francisco to await a transpacific steamer. • ! Heavy Artillery aa lafaatry. The 13 heavy batteries of the regiment will be equipped as infantry, according to present [plans, although one of .them may be used as light artillery. The headquarters of the regiment and four batteries are now at Ft. Slocum, N. Y.; two are at Fort Adams, R. I., and one each at"Portland Head, Me.; Fort Preble, Me.; Grover’s Cliff, Mass.; Fort Schuyler, N. Y., and Washington barracks. The garrisons, like most of the other posts of the army in the United States, will be left in charge of detachments. Will! Go Forward Gradually, It is not expected that the bulk ot the large body of reinforcements can reach Manila until the end of the rainy leason, which has just begun, but they will closely follow the departure from the Philippines of the volunteers. With the regular troops already ordered and on the way to Manila, Gen. Otis will have an effective^ jforee of 21,728 men In addition to the recruits being sent every few' days for the regiments already in the Philippines. * Ready for Autumn Campaign. This force Is to be raised to 35,000 men by the time the aggressive operations can be pressed into the early autumn. The volunteers to be return »d io his country from Manila number barely 12,000, many of whom are greatly debilitated, so the determination to send 14,000 able-bodied regulars to * take their places is Calculated to show ibe rebel leaders that the Unified States is terribly in earnest about meeting its responsibilities for preserving order and commanding respect throughout the archipelago. ( Army of Thirty-Five Thousand. It is announced that the army in the Philippines will be increased to 35,000 men whether the rebels abandon the field or not. If Aguinaldo gives up his hopeless fight as a result of the negotiations now in progress between his follow’ers and the president’s commissioners 35,000 men are deemed the right number to garrison the forts in the outlying islands and establish law- j lEuP government in them. If the insurrection1 continues in Luzon, at ■, least 30,000 American troops, it is estimated by the authorities, will be inquired there for the campaign that will be undertaken, the remaining 5,000 going to garrison the chief places which have been opened to foreign trade. CUBAN’S THREE MILLIONS. Gen. Brooke Decides Not to Go Behind the Officer*’ Return* In the Payment of the Caban Troop*.

Havana, April 20, 10:30 a. m.—Gov.Gen. Brooke, in the distribution of the $3,000,000 to the Cuban soldiers, has determined to treat the Cuban officers as soldiers and gentlemen, and not endeaor to go behind the rolls they submit. Hence the Cuban lists will be accepted on their face without the eliminations, as previously cabled, namely, those who entered the army after July, 1898, and those who are actually holding office. Any Cuban named on ‘the lists who is identified by his captain will get a share. Gen. Gomez will also probably receive a share. Correspondents on the Rolls. The names of several American newspaper correspondents are among the privates. These men, who are now in Havana, ask that the word “honorary” be put after their names, and announce that they will not take their portions. iwill Act tor the United States. Lionel E. G. Carden, British consul general at Havana, has notified Col. Tasker H. Bliss, secretary of the treasury department at Havana,' that he consents to act in consular matters for the United States, and will certify invoices. Archbishop of Santiago Gone. The archbisop of Santiago, who has been residing with the Franciscan friars at Guanabacoa during the past fortnight, sailed for Corunna, Spain, on board the Spanish steamer Alfonso XIII.

This mania differs from others in that it is not scute in its chronic stages and is curable.

ARE GREATLY PLEASED WITH WESTERN CANADA. W. B. Milburn, John Holmes, M. B. Dagger^ E. L. Stetson, of Buena. Vista County, Iowa, report as follows of the Canadian North-West as to its situability for fanning, and the advantages it offers to the agricultural immigrant from the United States: “We came here solely to look up improved farms and, if; suitable, to select such as pleased ua best. We have not visited the homestead districts at all, though we ttelieve them to be very inviting. Our inquiries have been confined solely to the district around Hartney, Deloraine and towards the Souris Kiver in Manitoba. Our impressions of all that region are in every way satisfactory, and we have decided to go back to Iowa at once, and, having disposed of our several interests there, to return to Manitoba in the month of March next, and, effecting our pu rchase of improved farms, which we find we can do at reasonable rates, immediately begin fanning. We are greatly pleased with all that we have seen in th.i t part of Western Canada. The soil we find to be more than equal to that of our own country for wheat-growing, and the other conditions of climate, schools, markets, etc., are all that we could wish for. “To show what an energe tic min can do we may mention that we found one such at Hartney who had rented n farm on shares, receiving two-thirds of the returns as his share of the crop. When ; he came to sell his own produce he found that his two-thirds, when converted into cash, was enough to buy the farm he rented out and out, which he accordingly did, and is now its owner, j It is our intention to induce as many of our friends as possible, who are practical farmers, to remove from Iowa to this country, where we believe there is a better future for the industrious man than is now to be found anywhere on this continent. We are well known in onr part of the State of Iowa, and We invite correspondence from its residents in all parts with regard to this region of Western Canada which we have visited, and to which we intend to return.”

An Excellent Combination. The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California. Pig Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxative principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form most refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxative, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation permanently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and substance, and its actings on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. In order to gut its beneficial effects and to avoid imitations, please remember the full name of the Company printed on the front of every package. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO CAL.
