M\KH l''KI:\ les are Danger Signals. Mure people .succumb -each year .some form ol kidney trouble than any other cause. The slightest form «.i kidney derangement often develops into Height's kidney disease, diabetes or dropsy. When either of these dis eases are suspected tile sufferer should at once seek the best medical atten tion possible. Consult only a good first-class physician have patent medi cines alone. There are many of tlie lesser symp toms of kidney trouble which can be treated at home is stated by a well known authority, for some of these such as backache, pain in the region ol the kidneys, weak bladder, fr“ iiuenoy, (especially at night) painful scalding and other urinary troubles try the following simple home remedy: fluid Extract Dandelion one-half ounce. Compound Kargon one ounce. Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These simple ingredients are harmless and can be obtained at any good prescription pharmacy and any one can mix them by shaking well in a bottle. The dose for adults is a tea spoonful after each meal and again at bedtime. There is no better general remedy known to relieve all forms of rheuma tism either, because it acts direct upon the kidneys and blood. It clears the clogged up pores in tile kidneys so tlw.v can lilter and strain from the blend tin' iHiisninms uric aciil and waste matter which if not eliminated remain in the blood, decompose and settle about the joints and muscular tissues causing the untold suffering and deformity of rheumatism. Backache is nature's signal notifying the sufferer that tile kidneys are not acting properly. "Take care of your kidneys." is now the physicians advice to his patients. PERSONAL MENTION.

Mur ray left town on train M yesterday morning lor a visit of a few days in Portland. Mrs. L. I/. Wellman has returned from New Volk, where she has been on a visit to her grandson, George Itaymond Jones, who was burn March 2! Augusta friends of W. G. Meloun, formerly superintendent of the Au gusta, llalli well Gardiner Kailroad. but who has for 11 years past been general muting' r of the Atlantic Shore Line Railway at Kittery, and Inis just retiree from that oilin', will dc inter ested to learn that on Tuesday evening lie was presented with a valuable gold watch by the employes of the road, and a! ;o with a purse of gold by his friends among tile citizens of Kittery, Ports mouth and Eliot. The scene of the oc casion was the elubrootn of the Kit tery Yacht Club, the presentation ol the watch being made by Hon. Horace Mitchell of Kittery, and that of the purse by Judge Aaron B.

NOTABLE MEDICAL DISCOVERY. Of Special Value to Many Here in Augusta. 'Pile progress made in medicine dur ing the last few years lias been as a whole general rather than specific. One of the most notable discoveries and one that undoubtedly appeals more than anything else to m my people here in Augusta Is the com bination of stomach remedies in tne Mi-o-na treatment. This prescription lias worked wonders, and there is now no excuse for anyone suffering with indigestion or weak stomach. It acts specifically upon the muscles of the stomach and bowels, strengthen ing and stimulating them so that they readily take care of the food that is eaten. It also increases the flow of gastric juieos. thus getting from the food the nourishment that is necessary for health and energy. The symptoms of indigestion are numerous, such as distress alter eat ing. flatulence, heart-burn, sick bead aches. dizziness and irritability. These are all dispelled by a few doses of Mi-o-na when the trouble is recent, hut just as surely in long standing and chronic cases if the treatment is followed for a reasonable length of time. So positive .are the good effects following the use of Mi-o-na that the remedy is sold by FJowditch. VVebster Co., under an absolute guarantee to refund the money it" it should fail to cure. With an offer like this none can afford to suffer ions from indiges tion or stomach troubles. Do not think because of the quick benefits derived from the use of Mi-o-na that it is merely a temporary agent. It is a remedy that cures by making over the weak stomach into a strong' one.

(Continued from Page One.) .it Chicago in fast time, Taft as .slated fur in tin lead. .Men are asking wlieth et any one eat. [jossi bl y eatell up u*HJi l.im, pass Imn and win the great prize, the greatest official prize there is in till tlie world, t'or it is conceded that the man who wins the m munition is likely to become President. There may be a chance to beat him. but it will hardly be a very good chance. A Belfast man. I'ichls S. Pendleton, lias been here in recent days fighting one of the old battles that has brought him to Washington many a time and olt. He is president of the Atlantic Carriers Association and every winter otnes down to Washington to take a hand ill tile numerous shipping bills wliieii come up before Senate or House I'justiut'iuiiuii. inis time Mr. Pendleton came to opipose tlu* granting ol‘ American registry to the Eva. a vessel owned in New York but built abroad. Every little while Congress is asked on one pretext or another to grant American registry to foreign ships that have been wrecked or stranded and afterward rebuilt or re paired but not to an extent that would bring them American registry under the general law. Air. Pendleton has been one of the most active opponents of such legisla tion as inimical to the interests of American built ships and as also inimical to the interests of American labor. As a rule be has been very successful in this opposition, for but few enactments of that character have been bad in Congress. The .Maine members of the Senate and House have stood very lirmiy for that idea, holding it an injustice to the shipyards in Maine and elsewhere to allow these foreign ships registry by special laws. •Mr. Pendleton has also been looking alter the anti-pilotage bill during his stay in Washington, but it is recognized that the bill has little' chance of being passed in this Con gress. Itcpresentative battlefield lias been pressing it in ids committee and hopes for a favorable report. Hut while lie may secure such a report it is doubtful if tiie House will care to antagonize organized labor just before the Presidential election by making the bill a law. Air. Pendleton lias be.-n taking a loss aggressive stand regard ing the legislation at litis session, be lieving' that he could better subserve its interests by leaving the work to others. Tile Southerners have kept a lolibj here in opposition to the bill and it bn; been suggested that if tin* shipping men in New England and elsewhere who want the bill, abstain from such methods as the Southerners have followed, they would lie stronger with members of Congress when the time for voting comes. MAINE BIBLE SOCIETY. Annual Meeting Held and Officers Elected At Portland. Portland, Me., April 2.—At the annu al meeting of Hie Maim: Kiltie Sucicly held in this city today the following (dficers were olc'-tcd for the ensuing year: President, Tloraeo II. I’urinton.

Koelfkind. .Me., April 3 -The armor ed cruiser Montana, which is having her official acceptance trials, will leave it f o’clock tomorrow morning for ai; endurance run of four hours, when she will be required to maintain an aver age speed of 35 knots an hour. in yesterday's screw standardization tests the Montana barely exceeded the contract speed requirement and she re mained in harbor today partly on ae ■oiint of the storm and partly to await reply from the navy department at Washington to a telegraphic request for permission to alter the high pres sure valves so as to give her Hi pounds iddilional power in the coming trials. So far as could he learned tunic'll, the navy department has not granted the request and it is assumed on shore that the cruiser will undertake her endur ance trial without the desired altera tions.

FACTS ABOUT NEW THEORY AS SECURED BY INTERVIEWS An article from the Nashville, Tenn.. Banner, published during L. T. Coop er's visit to that city, throws some light on the remarkable success of the young man's theories and medicines in various cities visited by him during the past year. The article is as fol lows: “In view of the enormous sale of Cooper's preparations now going on in this city and the intense interest which Mr. Cooper lias stirred up since his arrival, a representative- of the Banner spent Thursday afternoon at the young man’s headquarters, watch ing the swarm of humanity coine and go. “Inning the afternoon the reporter interviewed many of the callers and obtained statements from all who cared to give them as to their expe rience with Cooper and his prepara tions. “The following are selected from those statements as being typical of the general expression of the people seen: "Mr. B. B. Basatcr, living at 1224 North Fourth avenue, when inter viewed. said: ‘I have been troubled with my stomach for the past two years, and have had rheumatism for more than live years. Sometimes I could not walk, and there were times when 1 could not even move in bed. Hard knots would form on my mus cles, which caused me intense pain. Gas formed on my stomach after eat ing, which gave me inucir pain and distress, and often I was restless and tossed all night, losing much sleep and rest. ‘"Hearing of Mr. Cooper and Hie great work his medicine was accom plishing for others, X decided to try it. I have taken it about two weeks, and find myself in a greatly improved condition. My stomach is in good shape, and does not trouble me at all. My rheumatism has nearly disappear ed, and I expect to resume work short ly. for the (irst time in twelve months. Mr. Cooper certainly has a wonderful medicine, and 1 am greatful for what it has done for me.’ "Another callijr was Mrs. T. J. Smith, ol' 505 Hudson street. She said: I have been a sufferer from bladder and kidney trouble for twenty five years. In that time I have tried many prescriptions and various kinds of medicine, but received little or no benclit from them. I seldom had a sound night’s sleep, my rest being bro ken at intervals throughout the night. I had pains in my back and burning sensations. ‘I heard so much of Mr. Cooper that I came to the conclusion he might be able to afford me some relief. I have now been taking tlio medicine about a week, and feel better in every way. The pain has disappeared, and I have no distress whatever. I have come lien today to express my appre ciation to Mr. Cooper for his wonder ful medicine ami what it has done in my ease. I will take pleasure in recommending it to others.’ 1 ••in' spite of assertions by various, physicians that Cooper is a fad who v.-iil soon die out, the young man seems to be gaining even greater headway as his visit draws to a close.” The agency for Cooper's celebrated medicines has been given to us. Wo are making a fine record with them.— Bowditch, Webster Co., Under Cony House, Augusta Me.; Beanes Corner Drug Store. Gardiner, Me.; W. D. Spaulding, llallowcll. Me. HO SURPRISE Caused by Filing 01 Mrs, Vanderbilt’s Suit Against Her Husband, Asking Fur Absnlule Divorce. Ntithtr of Parties Interested or Friends Discuss Affair. i |j i
New Vi irk. April 2.—Little surprise whs expressed i" any quarter today over tin' announcement Unit forma! action iii a suit for absolute divorce had been taken by Mrs. Mien French Vanderbilt against Alfred li.vynm: Vantlci bill. Even rumors of impend jng action which have iieen in irce cir cuiation since March —*i, when Mrs Vanderbilt hurriedly iclt the Vander bilt farm at I’ortauioulli. If- I arc said ■to liavcaused surprise only outsidi the social set in which they have been leaders. Within that circle is had been known for a year or more, it is said, that there was a lack of mutual good feeling between the young people. While the parties to the trouble and all their Intimates as well have main tained the utmost reserve since the re ports of family infelicities became pub lic a week ago. still many circumstan tial stories have found their way into print. As many of these had been generally accepted as true there seem ed little doubt that some dehnite act ion would be taken at an early date. .Mr. Vanderbilt lias lormully declined to comment upon any of the stories. When questioned about the ilopartun of his wife from the Khode island tariti to her brother's home at Tuxedo park and asked if lie hud been con suited before flic move was made, hi replied that Mrs. Vanderbilt was ire* to visit her brother at any time with out his consent. He llatly refused m discuss flic relations existing between himself and his wile on the ground that it was u personal all air in which the public, had no business to interest themselves. In tliu same way Mrs. Vanderbilt treated inquiries regarding her hus band's depuiturc for Ktirope. which had been planned for early m the week and delayed until Wednesday at th. last moment. This delay, it is now said, was brought about through the service upon him of the papers in hi.-, wife's suit for divorce. Mrs. Vander bilt said that her husband's departure for Europe alone should not in itself be made tIn* subject of comment, He had frequently gone abroad since their marriage, leaving her behind. It was their way of living, she said, and was n matter which should concern them more than anyone else. Alfred Ciwynne Vanderbilt inherited a fortune ot S6n.n00.tKH) through tiie death of his father. Cornelius Vander bilt. At (tie same time, although a younger son, lie became lit" head of that branch of the Vanderbilt family, his elder brother Cornelius having be come outranged from his lather through his marriage with Miss Crave Wilson. Alfred G. Vanderbilt married Ellen French, daughter of the bite Francis Ormond French, a New banker, on June 14. M01. At Cue tftne of his marriage. Mr. Vanderbilt was years old. His bride was 21. They have one child, a boy. The child ,s with his mother at the home of Mrs. Vanderbilt’s brother in Tuxedo.

A friend of mine advised me to try your Bitters, which I did, and have found that they have helped me. I think in time they will cure me of dyspepsia.” Yours truly, Mrs. Rebecca Tribou. The true “L. F.” Atwood’s Bitters have been used and recommended by the general public for nearly sixty years. 35c. at druggist*. DEMOCRATS WORSTED. (Continued From Fuse One.) •Why, you don’t really mean it,” came jom the Democrats, who then applaud ’d. The yeas and nays were ordered and ;hc roll was called. The motion was car ded. yeas 124, nays 73. A parliamentary tangle was caused by a proposed amendment by Williams to which Payne objected, but the Chair rul ed hi favor of Williams, holding that his amendment would be in order when the resolution had been read. Doth Pavnc and Williams sought recognition and, amid the shouts of the Democrats and much to Payne's disgust, the Chair recog nized Williams. Gardiner, Mass,, who occupied the hair, ruled: "If the gentleman from Mis sissippi lias an amendment he Is entitled to prior recognition.” The Chair then reversed ids ruling and recognized Payne to offer an amendment. Payne moved that the last word bo stricken out. Williams interrupted. ‘‘That last word." said lie. “happens to be the word Con gress." This set the Democrats in an uproar. I’ayiif moved that nil donate ue cioseu at once, which ttouithl ihc Democrats to a high pitch of excitement. Fitzgerald. N. Y.. demanded ttO minutes and Under wood. Ala., wanted an hour. The demands of both Fitzgerald and Underwood were voted down, but not un til the Democrats had exhausted every parliamentary practice. Once again Payne was overruled when Williams moved that the debate be lixed at 10 minutes. Payne objected on the ground that the motion was dilatory. Williams’ motion was lost. J’he House then reverted to the motion of Payne and it was voted, 97 to 6;!. Williams presented his amendment, which instructed the committee on ways and means to bring in a bill, in accord ance with the President's reconunenda-j thm. putting wood pulp on the free list ai(fl reducing the duty on print paper. Vhe amendment was lost, 75 to 89. Williams retorted with amendments rc iiuiriiig Hie committee on the judieiaiy to report bills to prevent restraining or ders invalidating state laws in ccitain cases on ex-parte testimony tyd to pro vide for hearing for the defendant in cases of temporary injunctions. Payne was ready with a point oT order, but Williams argued the point, saying the House was master of its committees. "And even the committee on ways and means can he instructed by the House.” A reiynrk by Williams that "tlie Ameri can House of Itepreseritativcs tonight is making history.” elicited Itepublican jeers. "You don't seem to know it.” lie declared, “but you are. just tlie same. You cannot go to the American people with the excuse that the House is com posed of a Speaker, a committee on ways and means and a chairman of flint com mittee." The point of order was sus tained. Further amendments were oiicreii ny Willimns to require the reporting1 of hills to limit the authority of circuit and dis trict courts and judges in granting in junctions and restraining orders upon cx parte evidence; and to provide that no writ of injunction or temporary restrain ing order shall he granted in any case without reasonable previous notice to the defendant. The amendments were lost, 51 to 87. Payne moved the previous question to report the resolution. Another roll call ensued, with the result that the previous question was ordered, ayes 119, nays 89, "present” 25. The Democrats forced another roll call on a request by Payne for the previous quegtion on a motion I*y him to recom mit tlie 1)111. The previous question was again ordered, the vote reverting to the motion to recommit what was a tactical move of the Republicans to head off any action by the Democrats. It "as lost, as jl was Intended to bo. Pa> ue was forced to request the yeas and nays on the passage of the resolu tion. Having exhausted all methods of obstructing the resolution and having no desire to oppose its passage, the Demo crats voted with the Republicans. The resolution was adopted, yeas 913, naj s 0, "present" IS. SSpealter Oannor. held that a motion by Under wood. Ala., to reconsider the vote was dilatory ami refused to entertain it, whereupon Pavne moved to adjourn. The Democrats forced the 13th roll call and by the vote of 121 to 81 the House adjourned at 19.05 P. M.. and the strug gle for the time being was over. IN THE HOUSE. Washington, April 2.-Debale on the I agricultural appropriation bill was re sained immediately after the House met today, the subject of government aid to state roads arousing a spirited discussion. Harrison, N. Y.. to the ap parent surprise of his colleagues but to tlie delight of the Republicans, came out against Williams, the minority leader. He attacked Williams’ pro posal to utilize the treasury surplus m the construction and improvement of roads, maintaining that-there was no surplus in the treasury so long as a national debt existed. There was a surplus of daily balance, he suid, but no reul surplus. Harrison predicted that if Williams' “.Socialistic policy” were to lie pursued tlie states would soon he asking the federal government to do everything for them “down to feeding and cloth ing them Sheppard. Tex., denied that Williams advocated a departure from Democrat ic principles and lie cited a bill offered by John C. Calhoun in support of his contention. Burleson of Texas advocated liis measure to prohibit gambling in cotton. The reading of tbc agricultural bill was then concluded, whereupon Scott, chairman of the committee on agricul ture. gave notice that he would ask for a separate vote on the amendment increasing by $103,100 the appropria tion for soil investigations, and the discussion on that subject was re opened. Scott vigirottsly criticized mo cinei of the bureau of soils and charged that “with aii the arts and artifices of ail exrert lobbiest" in iiis over-zealous* ness lie had been instrumental in get ting' the appropriation incorporated. The increase having been obtained through an amendment by Humphreys, Miss., that gentleman denied that it was the result of any "log rolling” with him. Ho disclaimed knowing the chief of the bureau of soils, llis of fering the amendment, lie said, was due solely to his conviction that the, bureau’s work should be enlarged. The Democrats forced the yeas and nays on Scott's proposition and the roll war called. The vote resulted: Yeas, 1-1-’; nays, 12U, present m--. Tin1 amendment accordingly tv as re tained in the bill. As amended the bill was then passed. The total amount carried by it is $11,508,800. being $77, 400 more than as originally reported. IN THE SENATE. Washington, April 2.—The legislative session of the Senate today was con sumed mostly in discussion nil' a bill to re-organize the public school sys tem of the District of Columbia by placing it under the control of a direc tor appointed by the national commis sioner of education, instead of control, as now, by a board of education, com posed of citizens of tile District. The bill regulating the settlement of claims of states on account of the dis position of public lands was again tak er, up and the Beacon amendment for settling the accounts of owners of cot ton seized by (he government during the Civil War, amounting to $5,000,000. was considered, but without result either on the bill or the amendment.

April i'.—Carrying a total of $11,1108,806, the agricultural ap propriation hill was passed by the House of Itepfosen tali vow late today. It had been under discussion for nine days and front the time its considera tion began until the vtfry end its pro visions were attacked at every turn, with the result that it underwent many changes. Just before its passage, Mr. Scott of Kansas, chairman of the agri cultural committee, made an unsuc cessful fight to have stricken out the amendment adopted yesterday con siderably increasing the appropriation of soil investigations. During the debate today, a brief Hurry was created by Mr. Harrison, of Xew York, a Democrat characterizing as Socialistic the hill of Minority Lead er Williams, providing for the utiliza tion of the treasury surplus in the con struction and improvement of roads in several states. With the agricultural hill out of the way. the Democrats, under the leader ship of Williams conducted a success ful filibuster against tile transaction of any further business. THE LOVERING BILL Only Currency Measure Approved By N. V. Chamber of Commerce. Washington. April 2.—None of the cur rency legislation now before Congress, with the exception of the Levering bill, which provides for the appointment of the commission to Investigate the cur rency and banking systems of the United States, will iiave the approval of the New York Chamber of Commerce. This was decided today when the chamber adopt ed the report of Its special committee which Was appointed at the March meet ing 1° report upon the legislation pend ing in Congress. It Is the belief of the committee, as expressed in its report, that there is little chance of any cur rency legislation being enacted at the present session of Congress. After describing the Aldrich hill as a measure which would “provide highly taxed emergency cunency," and tlir Fouler hill as one which would “operate to bring about immediate instead of grad ual substitution of credit notes,” the committee says they are so antagonistic to each other that comprehensive legis lation at an early date does not seem probable. “These circumstances point “unmistakably to the imperative need of further deliberation,” says the report, “to the discussion of principles and methods by means of which such prin ciples may be applied to meet the “coun try's needs-” The committee report recommends the enactment of a law providing for the appointment of the committee to inves tigate the currency and banking systems of the United States and of other leading commercial nations, and to report such measure “as may be found necessary to place our currency and banking system on a sound basis, which is absolutely es sential for the permanent welfare and progress of the country.” FINANCIAL COMMISSION BILL Providing for Practically History of American Finance Introduced. Washington, ,*pril 2.—A financial com mission hill was introduced in the Sen ate today by Mr. Dupoul of Delaware.

Another re port is lo be made as to Ilie defects of the present financial laws of the United States and the commission is to ho re quired to suggest remedies. The commission is empowered to visit foreign countries but must conclude its labors by Dec. SI, 1%N. An appropriation of $’0,000 is provided to cover liic ex penses of the commission. MISUSED INDIANS. Mrs. Helen Pierce Grey Tells of Abuse of the Crow Tribe. Washington. April Mrs. Helen Pierce Grey, the newspaper writer, who was arrested last summer because of her connection witii tlie protests of Grow Indians against the manner in which the government agents managed the Crow reservations in Montana, re sumed iter statement today before the Senate committee on Indian affairs. She charged that to keep from starv ing the Indians had been compelled to eat tlie meat of diseased cattle and sheep; that they were frequently thrown into jail without cause and kept, at the mercy of the agents; and that the children at the government reservation school were mistreated. She said positively that all of these things must have been done with the knowledge of some of tiic officials at Washington. That some of tile members of the committee were impressed by the char acter of the charges which Mrs. Grey said were succeptable of proof was evident front tile character of the cross-examination. It is not unlik* ly that a general investigation will he or dered. Sirs. Grey in describing her experi ences told about tbc six times she was arrested and about an alleged attempt by Indian Agent Reynolds to ••Trump" up a charge of “Insanity” against her. She then said that Mr. Garfield when in Billings, Mont., told the chief of police that she was it "Dangerous blackmailer and an adventurer."' That ^statement is without any foundation whatever," declared Mr. Garfield. Mrs. Grey responded that the chief of police would testify to the contrary. Mrs. Gray said that Mr. Garfield was in Billings which is near the Crow res ervation, w'.iile many of the indigna tics against them were committed and could not have been ignorant of what was going on. She said that Indians were constantly mistreated and that wliei) they were thrown into jail dial act constituted the whole legal pro cedure: that no charges were brought and the time of imprisonment de pended upon tiic will of tlie. Indian agent, in her own ease site declared that charges were brought against her on the sixth arrest. Previous to that preceding she was put in jail over night and that ended tlie matter. Once she said Agent Rey nolds lmd threatened to incarcerate her with an Indian, but that the feel ing was such that he did not dare to carry out his purpose. Passing on to the alleged misman a foment of Indian affairs, Mrs. Gray said it was current report that Sena tor Carter was part owner of Charles Bear’s sheep. She had testified previ ously that Bear, through influence with the agent, pastured about 125,000 sheep on the reservation while paying lor 35,000 head. Mrs. Grey said that while Mr. Dalby. former secretary to Mr. Garfield, was investigating the conditions on the res ervation, he was told sit one of the In dian councils at Gordon that the In dians knew they were eating lumpy inw cattle and sheep that had died of disease, but that it was "either eat that or starve.” Bhe declared that protests to the In dian office had been made without number and that invariably they re sulted in bringing punishment upon the Indians, owing to the fact that complaints wore always sent back to the agent, at whose mercy the Indians were. Mrs. Grey said that once she was de coyed to a hotel where plans laid been made to arrest her, but that she saw throUB*' the plans and wrote a tele gram to President Roosevelt that she was to be arrested and asked Major Reynolds to send it. It developed that the telegram evas sent. “Di'l you noi at me same mnc ri.hu telegrams to a number of newspapers, asking? them if tliev did not want sen sational articles about your arrest?” asked Dixon. “How did you know about those tel egrams.” demanded Mrs. Grey. "I am not on the stand,” replied the senator. “Well.” said Mrs. Gray, “those tel egrams were stolen from my hand bag when I was arrested. That is one of the tilings want investigated. Now I want to know what you know about ft." Senator Dixon's colleagues laughed heartily over the turning of the tab bies. and ho explained that it was stat ed in the press that sueli messages hud been sent by Mrs. Grey. "They were not sent.” said the wit ness. “and were not intended to be sent. They were written as bluffs and ’intended to fail into other hands in or der to prevent my arrest.” statement was made by M. K. Sniffon, secretary of the Indian Itights Association in corroboration to a large extent of Mrs. Grey's testimony. CAPITAL JOTTINGS.

TAFT ON THE ARMY. Says We Will In Few Years Have Force of 250,000 Men. Columbus, Ohio, April 2.—William II. Tuft spoke tonight at tin* Columbus Board of Trade banquet on the army, atopic which lie thought had too lit tle consideration in times of peace. He said: “Naval action is usually aflirmative. To be useful, th& navy must strike, and this makes its function dramatic and commands tlie popular attention. The function of the army of late years lias generally been that of accomplishment by patient effort, stretching sometimes over months and years but always re quiring close attention and self-re straint. Its work has been not only that of attack, but more often that of administration and pacification. "We need an army for three pur poses: First, as essential to any sat isfactory system of national defence; second, as an indispensable instru ment in carrying out our established international policy, and third, for the suppression of insurrection and civil strife. “How could we maintain the Monroe doctrine if it should be questioned in the strenuous race for trade and colo nization? Could we do it otherwise than by an expeditionary force to the country invaded for the. purpose of as sisting the local forces in repulsing the invader? It is true that our navy, enlarged as it is, would discharge a most useful function in the defence of the invading country, but it could make little headway against hostile forces landed therein: and after that the only method of assorting our inter national policy would be by the use of the army. “Of course there is no probability of a recurrence of our great Civil War, but should the forces of Anarchism and Socialism and revolt against or ganized government manifest them selves. a well-organized militia would be most necessary. Suppression of lo cal disturbances is to the regular army an unpleasant duty and it is one to which the President would summon regular troops with great reluctance. An increase in the efficiency of the mi litia may well relieve the regular army of any such duty. The moral effect of (i regular army, however, to discourage lawlessness is invaluable. “The history of this country since the beginning of the llevolutionary War shows that during at least one fourth of the life of the country, the government lias had a war on its hands in some part of its territory. It Is, therefore, unwisg_t» prophecy as t what may happen in this respect in the future.” Spoiikingf of the nriiiy today itmi of its Improvement anil adaption to modern needs he cave the credit to the ability, energy and enthusiasm of Elihu ltont, formerly secretary of wav. In conclusion the secretary said: "Congress manifests such an inter est in the development of the army and a. willingness from time to time to improve tiie various branches that, during the next decade, T feel confi dent, wo shall have a regular army and u reserve citizen soldiery suffi cient to put into the Held 250,000 men, capable of carrying on war witli cour age and efficiency. We do not raise armies by conscription except as a last resort. As a consequence our I army is much more expensive than Eu ropean armies. Our regular army of 60.000 men costs us about $72,000,000 a year. France maintains an armv of 510.000 men at a cost of $123,000,000 a year. Germany maintains 616,000 men for $111,000,000 a. year. “A short-sighted parsimony with re spect to an efficient army which might suppress a rebellion or foreign was in a short time, leads to the raising of enormous fresh levies of unskilled troops and the expenditure of great treasure.” PANAMA INVADED. Town of Jurado on Frontier Occupied By Colombian Troops. Panama. April 2.—Advices received licrc this evening reported that Colom bian troops oil March 26 had invaded the towns of Jurado, on the frontier of Panama. and Colombia, taking pos session of the place, which has been offered to the Colombians, as Jurado was guarded by only five Panama po licemen. There is no telegraph commu nication between the town and Pana ma and confirmation of the report of itk invasion by Colombian troops is not possible at present. Ricardo Al ias, secret siry of foreign affairs, said tonight regarding the re port: “Our government would consider the occupation of the town of Jurado of Colombia as a casus belli." A meeting will be held tomorrow, called at the instance of the aditfjnistration, to de cide upon what immediate steps are to be taken to dislodge the Colombians from Jurado if tlw report proves to be correct. The news has occasioned more nervousness on the part of the Colom bians residing here than to the citizens of this republic, the former fcating that they may be the first to suffer.
