The small pox situation is again forcing itself on the attention of 1 the State. There are several cases 1 in Columbia and several in Sam- i ter. Competent physicians have so pronounced it, and the fact stares us in the tace as one not to be dis- ' regarded. The Fleet and Army Will go to Cuba at once, if Spain Refuses to Comply— Many Troops Moving Southward— ‘Pope Still Hopes for Peace. [Hpeclal Dally Times.1 Washington, April 20—1.05 p. m.—President McKinley signed the Cuban resolutions and the ulti matum to Spain at 11.24 o’clock this morning, and at 11.35 the ulti matum was sent to thfc Spaaish government. the ultimatum. The ultimatum is in substance a demand that Spain evacuate th island. SpiNtSH MINISTER MOVES HI£i RECORDS.- , , Senor Polo y Berhabo, the Span* iah minister, has transferred the records of his office and his effects to the office of the Freucb am bassador- Every command of regular troops has started toward the South- vow OF Sl’ANIeH SAILORS. The members of the crew of the Spauish squadron at Cadiz have vowed before the shrine of the Virgin Mary never to return to their country unless victorious. UNTIL NOON SATURDAY. Washington, April 20.—3.45 p. m.—The ultimatum gives Spain until Saturday at noon for a reply. GOOD bye. Polo y Bernabe, the Spanish minister, leaves Washington this afternoon. Woodford, the United States minister, will remain in Madrid, demanding his passports if the reply of Spain is unfavora ble. The ultimatum gives Spain un til Saturday noon to decide wheth er she will surrender Cuba or not. WHAT WILL HAPPEN. Upon Spain’s refusal to comply the fleet and army will start for Cuba from the Southern points. MCKINLEY’S PEN. Secretary Alger has the pe« that McKinley signed the ultimatum with. IN GOOD HANDS England’s minister sent the interests of Spain when Woodford leaves Ma drid. WHAT THK POP* THINKS. Rome, April 20.—3.55 p- m-— The Pope thiuks that if Spain cede* Cuba to the Vatican peace may be procured. RUMOR OF FURTHER TIME. Washington, April 20.—3.55 p. m.—The volunteer bill will be passed to-da; - It is reported that that can be made is one on prece-’ dents. According to these Minis ter Woodford will notify the Span-! ish government of the action of the government of the United; States, and should the Spanish answer be unsatisfactory, as is ex pected, the next fetep m order will be for him to ask for his passports and leave Madrid. That would be followed instantly by the with drawal from Washington of Senor Polo, the Spanish minister. At this point, it can be said that the State department officials are con fident that the Spanish govern ment will so shape every phase of the negotiations as to oblige us to take the iniative at every point. NO EAiY WALK OVER In this connection it may be stated that the army and navy ex perts are' beginning to take a. less will repre- Americans in Mrs. J. F.

Months are now mentioned instead of weeks as the probable length of hostilities and one eminent naval officer, who had experience m the late war, pro fesses a belief that unless outside pressure is brought to bear, a war may easily drag along for a year under the existing conditions. Apparently the powers have abandoned open efforts in Wash ington to influence the course of our government. Matters were very quiet at all the legations to day aud no instructions were re ceived by any of the ambassadors or ministers in the line of media tion. TO LOCALIZE THE WAR. Loudon, April 20.—The Rome correspondent of the Daily Mail says: Italia, the organ of the foreign office, publishes to-night the following note: “The powers are on the eve of taking a new step, namely; re questing the United States and Spain, in the event of war, to localize the hostilities to Cuba and the neighboring waters. This step will be taken immediately after a declaration of war. Utter pessi mism prevails in diplomatic quar ters here, the Vatican alone con tinuing hopeful of peace. The pope is working energetically to be accepted as arbitrator; but be admits that Cuba has already morally ceased to belong to Spain.” MOKE RIOTS. London, April 19—A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from Gib- ralter, dated Monday, says a tele gram received there from Malaga reports a resumption of the riots at Malaga -on Monday, that the American consul’s negro servant was killed and many persons in the crowd were wounded. leston News and Courier, is in the city to-day.

Key West, April I9.—The naval plan of action.it is understood has finally and definitely decided upon. It involves the blockade of Cuba, but not a bombardment of Havana The blockade will involve no en gagements, it is expected, except the accidental encounters which, more or less, are bound to occur. the Troopa are being rapidly moved Southward from various parts of! the country. The proposed plebisoitum has beeu abandoned. War ia the one abaorbing topic m Madrid. Seuor Sagasta iu an address yesterday spoke of the action of Congress as the most in famous insult ever offered Spain, and then said, “Spain will not al low a parcel of her territory to he taken from her with impunity; nor will she be a party to auy trafficking for her poasesaioua.^ Qafet prevai s at Havana, business ia almost paralyzed. The Cubans will lend the Uni States every possible aid in pelling Spain from the island. A cabinet officer is of the opin ion that it will take about two months to make the Spaniards evacuate Cuba. A leading official says : The United States government will not issue any letters of marque and re prisal nor countenance privateer ing ; but if the Spanish government chooses to enter upon this line of warfare, she will have to deal with the nations of Europe with whose commerce she seeks to interfere.’ Vanilla ice cr^am at Darby Druggist’s this afternoon.

The organ has already arrived and J. D. Haselden Elected Cliairmaa The board of control has elected Mr. J. D. Haselden permanent chairman. Several months ago it was decided to permit the members of the board to alternate as chair man at monthly periods. This method was adopted in order that each member might be educated and drilled thoroughly in the ope rations of the dispensary system. However as each member has had a taste of the honors of the office and has graduated in the course of instruction offered there by, it has been deemed advisable to return to the old form of gov ernment with the result that Mr J. D. Haselden, cf Marion, the member elected at the last meet ing of the legislature, was chosen chairman.—Register. KlieuiiiatUm Cured.
