VOLUME THIRTY-FOUR. frrealtest Demonstration in Present Campaign Given Republican Candidate CLIMAX OF THE GREAT BATTLE Fifty Bands and Much Red Fire to Mark the Line of March—Bryan Swings Up State to Address Big Meeting at Troy—Kern Keeps Up the Fight in Indiana. New York, Oct. 28.—This Is Taft's big day In Greater New York. After a day's series of speeches In the cities and towns along the Hudson river, the candidate will return to New York to day to be the central figure in the big gest republican day of the present campaign in the metropolis. Taft's train is due to reach New York about noon, and from that time until mid night or later, almost every moment of the candidate's time has been as signed for meetings in various parts of tho city. All preparations have been made to make (tonight's Taft demonstration the real climax of the republican cam paign. Fifth avenue will outshine Broadway when -the great parade of republican clubs moves down the thor oughfare. From Fifty-ninth street to Fifteenth street the avenue will be a blaze of light from searchlights, red lire and illuminations of clubs and private buildings. Fifty bands of mu sic will give a martial air to the 'big demonstration. At Madison Square garden, where Taft, Governor Hufhes and others ex pect to speak, General Horace Porter will be the presiding officer. Free Silver Menaces. *.-r Tafit's voice plainly showed in his '-early speeches today the strain to •which it has been subjected, and at Betliune street, where he spoke for seven minutes, he was twice inter rupted by fits of coughing. He appealed for,support for the republican ticket ,v"So the end that returning prosperity may continue to return. "We have had a panic, a period of depression," said he, "but it did not reach west of the Mississippi river, for I have been there and they did not know about it." The farmers are pros perous, he said, and all (that is required for prosperity to be general is for those in control of capital to invest. "If you had control of capital, which party would you prefer In power to bring you adequate return on that cap ital ho asked. "Would you prefer the party that for ten years past has shown you the greatest prosperity the world has ever seen, or the party whose lead er has been proposing economic re forms for the past twelve years, only to abandon them one after the other. Who today believes in free coinage of silver? Yet that leader for three presi dential campaigns advocated It as a panacea for all our ills." Taft said that the president has power under the statutes to practically 4 put the country on a silver basis, and asked if men with capital to invest would not hesitate before investing their money* if such candidate were elected. BRYAN SWINGS UP STATE. Addresses Big Mass Meeting at Troy" Expects to Carry New York. New York, Oct. 28—Bryan is on an other swing up state thru Tarrytown, Ossining and a half dozen other towns and cities to Albank and Schenectady, before he reaches Troy, where he will address a big mass meeiting late to night. "What do you think of signs," s'ays candidate -rt'as asked just before leav ing the city. "I think the signs are Improving all the time." "Do you expect to carry N?w York state?" "I certainly do, and expeat to carry the entire middle west as well as some eastern states. We will have enough and more. Nebraska Is sure, so I think. Is Ohio." SHOWERED WITH TAFT BUTTONS "Bryan Crowd Gets a Surprise as Taft Special Whizzes By* Hastings on Hudson* N. Y., Oct. 28.— A shower of Taft campaign buttons rained among the crowd which had as sembled here to hear William Jennings Bryan speak today. The Bryah train had Just come to a halt as the Taft special whizzed by on its way from Troy to New York City. Taft was in his stateroom, but several members of his party were on the rear platform of his car, and besides surprising the crowd with buttons, gave a lusty yell for the Ohioan. Bryan quickly saw the identity of the train and waved his hand in answer to the salutation, and also threw a broad smile at the dis appearing train., Bryan here today charged the re publicans had abandoned argument, "and now attempt to win this election by use of a campaign fund, the source of which they refuse to disclose. They are trying to win the election by coer cion, threatening employes with loss of employment if the democrats win, and threatening the business world with panic if the republicans are not successful." Bryan's audience was largely made up of railroad men. and they Accorded him a cordial greeting. Bryari Scores Roosevelt. Poughkeepsie, N.

Sofia, Oct. 28.—The Bulgarian gov ernment has informed the representa tives of tho foreign powers here of its acceptance of the principle of paying compensation to Turkey, which has been the burden of persistent diplo matic representatives during the last fortnight oi. the part of all the great powers. This decision was arrived at by the cabinet after a long debate, in which Emperor Ferdinand used all his influence in favor of peace with com pensation.

Turin, Oct. 28.—A special courier ar rived here yesterday witihi tlie sealed message from King Victor Emmanuel to the duke of the Abruzzi, which it is believed contains the king's decision with regard to the marriage of the duke and Miss Katherine Elkins. This belief is strengthened by the fact that the duke, after reading the message, sent for the official notary of his house and discussed with him points with ref erence to his patrimony. It is reported here that the Dowager Queen Margherita remains Immovable In her attitude of opposition to the marriage of the duke of the Abruzzi and Miss Katherin Elkins, but that the duke has declared that he will have his own way in spite of opposition.

ROADS PPEDICT COAL FAMINE. Declare Dealers Have Failed to Heed Repeated Warnings. Chicago, Oct. 28.—Managers of Chi cago railroads declare that there will be another coal famine in the north west this winter and that thev see no way to prevent it. This prediction is due to the faci that generally iifc-the northwest there is an tinpreparedne^s for winter, as even less fuel litis been provided than usual. That this is the fault of the railroads is strenuously denied, and it is pur posed to give full publicity to the facts that the railroads will not be blamed for the famine when it comes. It 's stated that the managers of all rail* road.'! extending Into the northwest J-'** 4b.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28 1903 'began early ln the summer to warn tho coal dealers of that region to prepare for winter. Circulars were issued and sent broadcast urging the. dealers to buy their winter's supply during tli') summer and fall and not to wait un til tlie winter months. l'n addition to the circulars the rail roads sent, traveling freight agents all thru the northwest trying to arousi sentiment with respect to an early sup ply of coal. T4je dealers were told that coal could be transported during the slack^months and stored for win ter's use. Many of the dealers Insisted that they had no storage facilities an! did not eare to stand a loss by storing their coal on the ground. If the rail roads desired to haul the coal into the northwest and stand a loss by storing lit, well and good. Otherwise the deal ers chose to take their chances on late deliveries. Tho famine talk did not alarm the dealers generally, for famine brings famine prices, and famines brings famine prices, and famine prices bring larger profits. The railroad managers were there fore compelled to abandon their at tempt to induce an eiirly ordering of coal supplies. The best they could do was to see that their own supplies were stored ahead of consumption, so that if famine threatened they would be in better position to hurry coal Into the northwest. In connection with the coal supply problem it is stated that less than 10,000,000 tons of coal will be shipped from the Pittsburg district to tlie great lakes this year, as against 12,000,000 to 14,000,000 last year.

Alleged Panama Canal Scandal Proved to Be Thin Air. Washington. Oct. 2K.—Ins vect'# General Oarlington of the army, in,' a report made public yesterday, exonor ated Chairman Goetlial of tho isthmus canal commission of the charges made by President Brothers of the Balanced Crane Cable company of New York, who claimed that unfair treatment was accorded him in the award for fur nishing and erecting cable ways at Gatun on the isthmus. General Gar lington holds that there was no collu sion that the award was made In good faith, and recommends that the icon tract p'ith the Liidgerwood company was proceeded with.' The award was approved by the secretary of war. The report says the device of .the Brothers company was not. suitable for work at Gatun plant, and there was nothing adduced in the investigation to indicate any other motive than to put Brothers in charge with technical scientific engineers who could prob ably perfect the device so as to make it practicable for work in the Pedro Miguel and Mira Flores locks. DAUGHTER BORN TO SZECHENYIS Budapest Papers Formally Announce the Interesting Event. Budapest, Oct. 28.—The Budapest newspapers announce that the Couhtess Szechenyi, formerly Miss Gladys Van derbilt, has given birth to a daugh ter. [Dispatches from Budapest and Vi enna on Sept. 1 stated that the Coun tess Szechenyi was seriously ill, fol lowing her aceoucbment of a stillborn child. A day or two later, however, the count denied that his wife was seriously ill. and on Sept. 11. accom panied by her mother. Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt of New York, she arrived at Vienna for the purpose of consulting a prominent gynecologist. Her ac couchement was expected to take place the latter part of October.] TEDDY, JR., MAKES GOOD. Promoted From Sorting Room to Wor sted Department—No Wage increase. Hartford, Conn.,'Oct. 28.—Theodore Roosevelt. Jr., plain workman in the Hartford Carpet company's plant at Thompsonville, Conn., was promoted from the sorting room to the worsted room—but he won't get any more sal ary until he learns more about the business. The president's son. on promotion, took up quarters in "Bob" King's boarding house, where many of the workmen in the factory reside. "Bill" Hines, young Roosevelt's fore man, made only one comment on the promotion. That was: "He's a mighty ambitious worker." TEMPORARY ORDER ISSUED. Funds of Municipal Traction Company, Cleveland, 0-. Tied Up Temporarily. Cleveland. Oct. 28.—The Central Trust company, of New York, trustee for the bondholders of the Cleveland Railway company, today filed suit in tlie federal court, praying that a re ceiver be appointed for the Municipal Traction company, now operating the lines of the former corporation in this city. Judge Taylor issued a temporary order, tying up all the funds held by the Municipal company, except such as may he necessary for the payment of wages. Financial Condition ot Iowa .Not Iiein*2T Used as a Cam paign Exhibit I DEMOCRATIC HOPE BLASTED' 1 Planned to Make Political Capital Out I of Condition of State Funds, Which Were Crippled by Panic Banking Firms Quitting the Trust End of Business. Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, Oct. 28.—The state treas ury of Iowa has now more cash at Its disposal than it had a year ago. lis better off than it was in the dark days of the Wall street panic of 11)07. Therefore the financial condition of the state, of Iowa is not 'being used as a campaign exhibit this year. It is recalled that a year" ago there existed what Secretary Shaw was 'quoted as saying, one of the worst panics ever experienced in this coun try. It was not a bank panic or a commercial panic, hence did not result in an epidemic of failures but it did have serious effect on the finances of the state. lOvery contractor who had work with the state rushed it, and everyone insisted on collecting all claims very promptly, while at the same time all who owed the state held back as long as possible. Then it was also true that the state last year was working under the extraordinary ap propriations of two legislatures com ing only a year apart, which greatly added to the expenses of the state. None of these conditions prevail now, and the result is that since the first of the year there has been a steady gain in the net cash balance In the treasury until at the present time there is a half million dollars avail able for use In the general fund. The amount israure to inerease ijght along for the remainder of the fiscal period rather than diminish. It is known that at the time of tha d&mocratlc state convention there was hope entertained by leading democrat Ic politicians that some capital could be made out of the financial affairs of the state by representing to the voters that the state has been run extravagantly and without regard to the interests of the taxpayers. But the figures would not bear them out, and the committee which in the cam I paign of two years ago handled the calamity end of the democratic cam paign is this J-ear otherwise engaged. The other day a big banking and trust company of Muscatine increased its capital stock and struck the word "trust" out of Its name. This has been done in a number of instances. There is a tendency on the part of the banks doing a trust business to get out of it. In fact the state banking depart ment has been engaged systematically in compelling banks to either give up banking or give up the trust business. It is contended that if they do any trust business they must submit in addition to tlie regular banking exam ination to an examination as a trust company, and this is expensive and difficult. There is no tri^st law, proper, in Iowa.' It is expected, there will.be one some day. A good many banks have tried to do a trust business with banking charters. Vut are said to be gradually changing. *t The supreme court has taken judicial notice of the fact that the attitude of the public toward combines has changed in recent years. In a damage case involving libel, from Neola, an article had boen printed virtually ac one merchant of maintaining a trust or cofnbine. The supreme court called attention to the fact that "there has been a remarkable change not only in public opinion, but in the law as well, regarding pools, combinations and trusts, calculated to stifle competition, control prices or regulate the output of goods and the la^v of libel must of necessity keep pace with the public opinion as reflected in the public prints las well as in legislation." The news from the east that large sums of money are being sent into Ohio and Indiana by the republican national committee and that the fvind comes from the large protected inter ests of the east and from Wall street, makes it all the more significant that the national committee has done not la thing for Iowa beyond permitting I Taft to enter the state. No speakers have been available for Iowa, and not a dollar of funds. It is believed that this is the first time on record when 'the national committee has failed to send money into Iowa to aid in the campaign. This year the money has 'all gone out of the state. It indicates Ithat the national committee regards Iowa as abundantly able to care for htself. The democratic committee has not received any funds from outside whereas it is known that two years ago a big slush fund was brought to the state from the outside and made use of. •PLANS FOR FARM UPLIFT TOUR.

Augustus Thomas, It is Said, Will Make Charge Friday Night. New York, Oct. 28.—A man close to William J. Uryan says that personally ho felt convinced Tammany Hall is be traying Mr. Bryan and tlm 'democratic party, and that there will he wholesale knifing "f tho Nebraskan by the Tammanyites on election day. Moreover, it was stated, the griev ances of Bryan's friends would be aired at a meeting of the Progressive Demo cratic league at Cooper Union on Fri day evening Augustus Thomas, the playwright, is a staunch friend of Mr. Bryan. He is president-of the Progressive Democratic league. Mr. Thomas, it was announced today, would be the principal speaker at Cooper Union. He is expected to make a sensational charge against Tammany Hall, and its leaders in par ticular. The lukcwannness and apathy dis played by Tammany Hall in its con duct of the campaign has been strange ly in contrast with what the organiza tion was accustomed to at the time there was a candidate it really cared for at the head of the ticket. Few big meetings ha%'e been held. The dis trict leaders, according to all reports, are doing little or rtothing in the way of educating voters on the issues of the national campaign and winning votes for Bryan. DEATH AT UNION.

FLEET TO AWE JAPS Senator Dixon Declares Around-the World Cruise Had Important Object, and Accomplished It Sent on Re­ quest of Emperor. Kalispel, Mont., Oct. 28.—That the Atlantic fleet wemr |b Japan at the re quest of the emperor to overawe Mutsuhito's subjects was the statement made by United States Senator Joseph M. Dixon in an address here last night. Dixon said it was known at Wasliing ton long before the fleet started on its spectacular voyage around the world that the sentiment of many people of Japan was likely to bring on war. The object lesson, said tihe senator, was successful, even before our fleet reached the shores of the islan^ em pire. WOMAN'S CLAIM NOT GOOD. Sully's Daughter's Rights in Rosebud Agency Only to Half Section. Wakpnla, S. D.. Oct. 28—There is not a shadow of a foundation for the claim made in a Chicago dispatch that a daughter of Jack Sully has a legal right to the Rosebud reservation. Even provided that Mrs. Sing is a halfbr.eeci Indian woman, as she asserts, with rights among the Rosebud Indians, she would be entitled to an allotment of one-half section of the land only, under the treaty of 1868. Jack Sully, the outlaw, was a white man With no rights whatever among the Indians. Being married to an In dian woman, his wife and children had tribal rights. Mrs. Sing, if she proves her claim, may possibly securc an indi vidual allotment, if there is any land left. IC not, she will be entitled to par ticipate in the tribal fund derived from the present and former sales of land, as will also the children of her Chinese husband, who will be entitled to 160 acres each, and part of the tribal funds. Those who have taken home steads may rest perfectly easy. They own incontestable right to the lands they have taken, so far as the Indians are concerned. There is a claim, however, which crops up once in a while, and which at least one Indian commissioner has said was valid, but impossible of col lection, that in the Black Hills coun- tr*The Alton Ministers Unanimously Declare in Favor of Plan.

Osculation Took Place in Hospital Where Pastor Visited Choir Leader. Des Moines, Oct. 28.—The kiss of a minister is sufficient grounds foi* divorce is the opinion of Supreme Court Justice McClain in deciding the suit of Mark Seeds, of Mediapolis, against his wife, Mabel. Mrs. Seeds was choir leader of the church of Rev. Mr. Williams and when lie concluded evangelistic services out of town she went along to lead the music. She accompanied the preacher to Cedar Rapids and there took sick and entered a hospital. Seeds visited here there and was told she would never return to him as her love was for another. He charged her with de sertion and she fought the case on these grounds. The testimony showed that she had been seen kissing her pastor several times. During the trial the clergyman in the case was killed in a railroad wreck. SUPREME COURT DECISIONS. Opinions Iowa's Handed Down by Highest Tribunal. Special to Times-Repubiican.

Special to Times-Republican. Mason City. Oct. 2S—The final decree in the case of the defunct Bank of Cor with has been made by Judge Clark and with this decree all the cases con necled with the bank are concluded This final decree disposes of a total of about thirty claims aggregating over $80,000. These claims were tried last summer and have been under udvlse ment by the court since that time. The original number of claims against the bank was over 3-00 and they aggregated over $300,000. All but these last thir ty were disposed of at Garner last summellaiul in most cases without dispute. They included no cases in which there were forgeries. All those complicated by forgeries are disposed of in this last decree and the thirty cases in this final decree are the most complicated In law and fact and in volve the most legal questions of the entire 300 cases connected with the de funct bank. In Three Classes. The claims against this hank are of three classes. The first class is that of trust fund creditors, the second of de positors and the third of generjj^ 'cred itors. The thirty cases disposed of hi this finali decree were largely of the first class or of those who claimed to be in the -first class—that is, preferred trust fund creditors. Claims of Depositors. First as to the claims of the deposi tors. Questions arose under the Iowa laws which give depositors preference o""er other creditors and the chief o£ was, "Who are properly deposi ts?" Some claimed^ that time tificates of deposit were loans and not deposits. The supreme court has heul that this question is determined by whether the main intention was to de posit the money for safekeeping or to accommodate the bank with a loan. Pe culiar facts in this case made the der cis jn difficult. Trust Fund Creditors. But more difficult and more compli cated than the questions concerning the certificates of deposit were, those concerning the trust fund creditors, and who are properly trust fund creditors and their rights and privileges! Also in this particular case, what are their rights as against depositors and other creditors? In this particular case the creditors who claim to be trust fund creditors and ask for preference on that score foil naturally into\ three classes. The first of these three classes is the •trust, fund proper. The courts have held that when monies are left with a bank for special purposes, such as the paying of a debt, a trust fund Is created in favor of the depositor and the bank is required to keep this fund separate frofn the other funds of the bank. Then if it should mix this fund wrongfully with the other funds of the bank and the bank should then go into the hands of a receiver, such a trust fund creditor has a preference and is in this way preferred even over the depositors. But in some of the claims of this nature in this particular case the parties did not pay in money but merely drew their checks on funds they had in the bank. Then the ques tion came, was the check the same as if money had been paid into the bank? This class of claims were established as preferred in the final decree. Forged Notes. The second class of creditors who claimed preferment were those in cases where Cashier Standring with out the knowledge of, the bank di rectors forged notes and mortgages on farmers and others, then sold them to banks and individuals and received the money from the banks and indi viduals for the same. Were these cred itors entitled to have their claims pre ferred? Here opinions differed widely too foecauselwhile the courts had gen erally held that money wrongfully taken in that way is a trust fund and that the banks are required to keep such funds separate from other funds, still they should not be preferred un less they could be traced into the funds in the hands of the receiver after the bank became defunct. If they could be so traced and removed they should be held as trust funds, otherwise not. The court decided that such claims are in this case entitled to be preferred. Other Forgeries. The third and final class of those who claimed preference as trust fund creditors were those who did so be cause of another class of forgeries. These cases were those where the cashier had received money for forged notes by draft from persons in large Most children eat too much, overtax the digestion, get thin, weak, languid, stop growing—that's malnutrition or non-digestion of food. Scott's Emulsion has helped countless thous ands in this condition. It is is a medicine—a most powerful aid to digestion.'"

It was claimed by these creditors that| this gave them a preference because he money -tlio used by the cashier was due to them because the cashier was an officer of the bank and the bank was liable. Therefore they claimed to be entitled to the amounts from the funds of the bank. On the other hand the receiver and other creditors claimed that tlio money was shown to have been used by the cashier and that thppefore could not have gone into the hands of the re ceiver. Therefore other creditors should not have to bear the loss of tiiis amount out of the money -which they had deposited. The court held that these claims are not to be pre ferred but established theni as general claims. Between Two Fires. The court was thruout all this mass of litigation connected 'with tho de funcL Bank of Oorwitli between the devil and the deep sea. If on the one hand it was decided that all the pre ferred claims should be allowed, then thousands or dollars would be taken away from depositors. On the other hand should the depositors be ffiven preference they would have swept the board. There were simply not enough funds to go around. The case is unique in the annals of Iowa courts. There was never a case in Iowa where there were so many •egal points to be considered and where opinions varied so widely on different points. Many appeals are probable. WIFE AND DAUGHTER GONE.

RHEUMATISM Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, which jrraclually gets into the circulation because of indigestion* constipation, weak kidney action, and other irregularities of the system which are sometimes considered of no importance. This uric acid causes an inflamed and irritated condition of the blood, and the circulation instead of nourishing the different portions of the body, continually deposits into the nerves, muscles, tissues and joints, the irritating, pain-producing acid with which it is filled. Rheu matism can only be cured by a thorough cleansing of the blood, and this is just what S. S. S. does. It goes down into the circulation, and by neutral izing the uric acid and driving it from the blood, effectually and surely removes the cause. S. S. S. strengthens and invigorates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour stream, causing pain and agony thoughout the sys tem, it becomes an invigorating, nourishing fluid, furnishing healtti ana vigor to every fart of the body and relieving the suffering caused by this disease. S. S. S. being a purely vegetable blood purifier, is the surest ana safest cure for Rheumatism in any of its forms.

There Is somewhat in the act that jars upon the sensitive. However, it is hard to see anything radically wrong in It. It may not be in the best taste and to many it will seem a use of holy vessels for domestic purposes. However, there is no reason why any of Mr. Bryan's writings should not be circulated as he and his advisers see fit. The lecture is a very good one. Most of us have paid to hear it de livered. It is in nowise great or does it voice anything new. Millions of men and women since the Christian religion came Into the world have held to the simple faith it expresses, the faith that does not ask for scientific: proofs and is content to believe. Millions of men in the world who are not candidates for president and who would be as un fitted for the duties of the executive office as Is Mr. Bryan have held to the same faith quietly and will die in it without dreaming of coining it into money at a fifty cent admission or capitalizing It for the purchase of of fice.

Sometimes when even the. plainest evidence exists a judicial decision is absolutely necessary to correct classi fication. Tlie difference between busi ness man, official, and grafter often requires the ordeal of trial and the conclusion of courts. But when the conclusion has been arrived at the class ification case of gerous man in office. We have all seen sincere christians who held to ideas in social and political government that precluded their elevation to even the minor offices of a municipality. We may have known men of this type who believed in perpetual motion and had a cellar basement full of crude ma chines constructed in defiance of every mechanical law. Home good men are actually dangerous as road supervisors by attempting, to put into practice theories in bridge building that might bring disaster and even death to the traveling public. The strongest part of Mr. Bryan's lecture, "The Prince of Peace." is the assertion of faith In the Christian re ligion. Tn this there Is no choice be tween tlie two principal candidates, for Mr. Taft's religious convictions are known tho his quiet observance of its dictates and of 'his faith have not been made the basis of a lecture to be de livered at from $250 up or circulated as a campaign document. There is nothing pharisaeal about Taft. 11' Mr. Bryan's committee has put him in the class of those who pray loudly in the synagogue to be seen .and heard of men, It doesn't matter much. Mr. Bry an's vogue has been built about pre cisely similar methods. But there Is nothing- essentially wrong in it. It is a matter of taste. THE SURGEON'S PLEA.

He let the democrats of South Carolina fixe on the Star of the West, flying the stars and stripes, because he said the "President nor the congress had any right under the constitution to coerce a seceding state." And this doctrine was dem ocracy from 1861 to 1865. All over the land, till the great conventions of April 1S65, at Appomattox, when the great democratic hosts with the great democrat, R. E.

The "black"'republicans had elected Lincoln in I860, and the democrats of the south were up in arms to protect the party and slavery. Well, the war came on, and raged with fearful slaughter on both sides.

Young Friend, Claude Porter, of Centerville, Iowa: Dear Claude—You made us a mag nificent speech last Saturday, lour tnentioned General Jackson, but he never mentioned Van Buren, Polk, Pierce, Buchanan, nor Cleveland. That may be all right, but it seems to me a big gap from Jackson to Bryan. Of course Jackson was a little hard on secession in 1^2. which would not have been good democracy ift th^ days of "Jimmy" Buchanan. But you did iiot mention this. I'm gla.d you didn t. Democracy is a progressive science and changes to suii the times. You are not expected to know anything about the things that, happeneed before you were born, especially about the old demo cratic party. 'Of course Buchanan was In a tight place in 1860 to 1861.

Chicago, f.n^^'8.—That Lord Curzon resented the restrictions placed upon his wife's inheritance by the late Levi Z.

Almost Peevish About It. This fact was confessed in a private letter written by Lady Curzon to Hugh Crabbe in February of 1906. The letter was not introduced in evidence but its existence was quite incidentally re vealed in the examination of one of the witnesses. Two other letters, in the same tenor, were written by Lord Curzon to Mr. Crabbe. In one his lordship utters the naive regret that he has been informed that he is to be deprived of the $10,700 mentioned. He plainly is skeptical as to the justice of this deprivation, refers to it with some frigidity in nicely criti cal phrases, and comes as near to being downright peevish as might be thought proper in the heir to a great English name. Neither his lawyer nor he. Lord Cur 30n sets forth, is inclined to think that there could have been an error in the original calculation. Both, on the con trary, are inclined to fancy that? the "alleged mistake" must have been in the rate. Clearly, too. he was some what put out by the fact that the heirs in America had ignored him to the ex tent of failing to submit a detailed ex planation. "Poverty" Was Galling. These letters contained matter that was so Intimate at the time that the wz-iting of them was not intrusted to a secretary. One bears the signature oi Lady Curzon. the others that of Lord Curzon. Neither was in a particular placid mood just at that juncture. The relative poverty "Which PICTURES sr 'uch horri­ fied," as he expressed it, in a letter at the time, at his separation from $10,700, withheld on the score that there had been a mistake in the account kept of money due him as the husband of the Lady Curzon, since dead. they were obliged to endure owing to the the failure of their income to be de livered regularly apparently was gall ing to both, and their resentment seemed heightened by the private con viction that it. was needless, that the estate in America could have been made to yield enough and to spare had it been properly administered, and that their interests were not being guarded. Later Mr. Crabbe explained that the Curzons were receiving at the time the letter was written abflut $5,000 a month. A sum of $700,000 had beeii placed In trust for Lady Curzon zy her father, the principal of which was to remain intact. Getting $133,0Q0 a Year. Owing to miscalculation, the Cur zons received $10,700 too much and payment of the income was, therefore, intermitted for two months, while only a fraction of the third month's total was forwaK'^d. It was this 'loss to which Lord Curzon referred. After Mr. Letter's death the Income of a further sum of $1,000,000 provided for in the will, became'available to the Curzons. At the present tir '.the family Is receiving approxh. .Jely, $1313,000 a year from the American properties. Lady Suffolk (Daisy Leiter) and Mrs. Colin Campbell (Nan cy Leiter) are beneficiaries to the ex tent of about $125,000 annually, while Joseph Leiter is said to have about $4,500 a month. Much of this debt of $9,000,000 largely incurred during the wheat pool which swept him under,, was remitted 'by his father before his death, altho he still is paying interest on $2,000,000.

This is the first stage of croup, and instant treatment should be given. Hyomei, the miraculous, antiseptic dry air treatment, will cure croup in either the first or second stages. Easily inhaled, even when the breathing is irregular, it reaches more promptly than any other remedy the terribly in flamed membrane of the windpipe. Its soothing balsams act immediately, the inflammation is allayed, and the swell ing reduced. "Not long ago our little boy, Walter, awoke in the night with a bad attack of croup, so that he experienced great difficulty in breathing. We allowed him to inhale Hyomei, and he immedi ately began to breathe easier, and in half an hour was fast asleep.

Com ing down on the car I buys this paper *nd sees the pictures, and then I'm on. See?" "Uli-huh," grunted the patrolman, scowling at Maitland. The cabby caressed his nose with a soiled fore finger reflectively, plainly a bit pre judiced by Hlckey's exposition. "One minute," Maitland interjected, eyes twinkling and lips twitching. "How long ago was it that you began to watch this house, sleuth?" "Five minutes before yeh come," responded Hickey, ignoring the insult. "Now—" "Took you a long time to figure this oat, didn't it? But go on, please." "Well, I picked the winner, all right," flared the detective. "I gttesa that'll be about all for yours." "Not quite," Maitland contradicted, brusquely, wearying of the complica tion. "You say you met me on the stoop here. At what o'clock?" "One: 'nd yeh takes me to lunch at Eugene's." "Ah! When did I leave you?" "I leaves yeh there at two." "Well, O'Hagan will testify that he left me in these rooms, in dressing gown and slippers, at about one. At four he found me on this divan, bound and gagged, by courtesy of your friend, Mr. Anisty. Now, when was I with you in Harlem?" "At seven o'clock, to the minute, yeh .comes—" "Never mind. At ten minutes to seven I took a cab from here to the Primordial club, where I dined at seven precisely." "And what's more," interposed the cabman, eagerly, "I took yer there, sir." "Thank you. Furthermore, sleuth, you say that you followed me around town from seven o'clock until— when?" "I said—" stammered the plain clothes man, pintle with confusion. "No matter. I didn't leave the Primordial until a quarter to eleven. But all this aside, as I understand ft, you are asserting that, having given you all this trouble to-day, and know ing that you were after me, I deliber ately hopped into a cab 15 minutes ago, came up Fifth avenue at such breakneck speed that this officer thought it was a runaway, and finally Jumped out and ran upstairs here to Are a revolver three times, for no pur pose whatsoever beyond bringing you gentlemen about my ears?" Hickoy's jaw sagged. The cabby os tentatiously covered his mouth with a huge red paw and made choking noises. "Pass it up, sarge, pass it up," he whispered, hoarsely. "Shut yer trap," snapped the de tective. "I know what I'm doin'. This crook's clever all right, but 1 got. the kibosh on him thiB time. Lemme alone." He squared his shoulders, blustering to save his face. "I don't know why yeh done it—" "Then I'll tell you," Maitland cut in, crisply. "It you'll be good enough to listen." And concisely narrated the events of the past 24 hours, beginning at the^noment when he had discov ered Anisty in Maitland Manor. Save that he substituted l^mself for the man who had escaped from Higgins and eliminated all mention of the* gray girl, his statement was exact: and con vincing. As he came down to the mo ment when he had called up from the Bartholdi and heard mysterious sounds in his flat, substantiating his story by indicating the receiver that dangled useless from the telephone, even Hickey was staggered. But not beaten. When Maitland ceased speaking the detective smiled superiority to such invention. "Very pretty," he conceded. "Yeli c'n tell it all to the magistrate to-morrow morn ing. Meantime yeh'll have time to think up a yarn explainin' how it come that a crook like Anisty made three attempts in one day to steal some jewels, 'nd didn't get 'em. Where were they all this time?" "In safe-keeping," Maitland lied, manfully, with a furtive glance toward the alcove. "Whose?" pursued Mr. Hickey, truc ulently. "Mine." with equanimity. "Serious ly— sleuth.'—are you trying to make a charge against me of stealing uiy owu property?" "Yeh done it for a blind. 'Nd that's enough. Officer, take this man to the station I'll make the complaint." The policeman hesitated, and at this juncture O'Hagan put in an appear ance. lugging a heavy brown-paper bundle. 1 "Beg pardon, Misther Maitland, •or— "Well. O'Hagan?" "The* crowd at the dure, sor, is dish persed," the janitor reported. "A couple av cops kem along an' fanned 'em. They're askin' for the two av yees," with a careless nod to the po liceman and detective. "Yeh hoard what 1 said," Hickey an swered the officer's look. "I'm thinkin'." O'Hagan pursued, calmly ignoring the presence of the outsiders, "(hot these do be the soot that domned thafe av the worruld stole off ye the day, sor. A la-ad brought ut at ayeloven o'clock, sor, wid partic ular rayquest thot ut be daylivered to ye at once. The paper's tore, an'—" "O'Hagan," Maitland ordered sharp ly, "undo that parrel. I think I can satisfy you now, sleuth. What kind of a suit did your luncheon acquaintance wear?" "Gray." "An' here ut is," O'Hagan an nounced. arraying the clothing upon a chair. "Iv'ry donin' thing, aven down to the socks. And a note for ye, sor." As he shook out the folds of the coat a square white envelope dropped to the floor the janitor retrieved and offered it to his employer. 'Dear Mr. Maitland,'" he read aloud 'As you will probably sur mise, my motive in thus restoring to you a portion of your property is not altogether uninfluenced by personal and selfish considerations. In br^ef, I wish to discover whether or not you are to be at home to-night.. If not, I shall take pleasure in calling if the contrary, I shall feel that in justice to myself I must forego the pleasure of improving an acquaintance b»sun un der auspices so unfavorable. In either case, permit me to thank you for the use of your wardrobe—which, quaintly enough, has outlived its usefulness to me a fat-lieaded detective named Hickey will tell you why—and to ex tend to you expression of my highest consideration. Believe me, I am en viously yours, Daniel Anisty'—Signed," added Hickey mechanically, his face working. "Satisfied, sleuth?" By way of reply, but ungraciously, the detective stepped forward and un locked the handcuffs. Maitland stood erect, smiling. "Thank you very much, sleuth. I shan't forget you. O'Hagan," tossing the janitor the keys from his desk, "you'll find some—ah—lemon pop and root-beer in the buffet. This officer and his friends will no doubt join you In^a friendly drink down-, stairs. CabSy, I want a word with you. Good morning, gentle men. Good morning, sleuth." And he showed them the door. "I shall be at your service, officer," he called over the janitor's shoulder, "at any time to-morrow morning. If not here, O'Hagan will tell you where to find me. And, O'Hagan!" The janitor fell back. "Keep them at least an hour," Maitland told him guardedly. "And say nothing." The Irishman pledged his discretion by a silent look. Maitland turned back to the cabby. "You did me a good turn, just now'," he began. "Don't mention it, sir I've carried you hoften before this evenln', and—ex- The Detective Stepped Forward and! Unlocked the Handcuffs. I CUSP my sayin' so—I never 'ad a fare as tipped 'andsomer. It's a real pleas ure, sir, to be of service." "Thank you," returned Maitland, eying him in speculative wise. "1 wonder—" The man was a rough, burly English man of one of the most intelligent, if not intellectual, kind the British cab by, as a type, has few superiors for sheer quickness of wit and under standing. This man had been sharp ened and tempered by his contact with American' conditions. His eyes were shrewd, his face honest if weath er-beatea, his attitude respectful. "I've another use for you to-night," Maitland decided, "if you are-at lib erty and—discreet?" The final word was a question, flung over bis shoul der as he turned toward the escritoire. "Yes, sir." said the man thought fully. "I alius can drive, sir, even I when I'm drinkin' 'ardest and can'l see nnthink." "Yes? You've been drinking to- Bight?" Maitland smiled ?uietty. st^afr A ing at the small writing-desk and ex tracting a roll of bills from a con cealed drawer. "I'm fair blind, sir." "Very well." Maitland turned and extended his hand, and despite hiB professed affliction, the cabby's eyes bulged as he appreciated the eise of the bill. "My worrd!" he gasped, stowing It away In the cavernous depths of a trousers pocket. "You will wait outside," said Mait land, "until I come out or—or send sonictiody for you to take wherever directed. Oh, that's all right—not an other word!" The door closed behind the over whelmed nighthawk, and the latch clicked loudly. For a space Maitland stood in the hallway, troubled, appre hensive. heart strangely oppressed, vision clouded by the memory of tho girl as he had seen her only a few minutes since as she had stood be neath the chandelier, after acting upon her primary clear-headed impulse to give her rescuer the aid of the light. He seemed to recall very clearly her slight figure, swaying, a-quiver with flight and solicitude—care for him! her face, sensitive and sweet beneath its ruddy crown of hair, that of' a child waking from evil dreams, her eyes seeking his with their dumb mes sage of appeal and of He dared not name what else. Forlorn, pitiful, little figure! Odd it seemed that he should fear to face her again, alone, that he should linger re luctant to cross the threshold of his study, mistrustful and afraid alike of himself and of her—a thief. For what should he say to her, other than the words that voiced the hunger of his heart? Yet If he spoke words such as those to—to a thief what would be the end of it all? What did it matter? Surely he, who knew the world wherein he lived and moved and had his being, knew bitter well the worth of its verdicts. The world might go hang, for all he cared. At least his life was his own. whether to make or to mar, and he had not to answer for it to any power this side of the gates at darkness. And if by any act of his the world should be given a man and a woman in exchange for a thief and an idler, per haps in the final reckoning his life might not be accounted altogether as He set back his shoulders and in spired deeply, eyes lightening and stepped into the study, resolved. "Miss—" he called huskily and stopped, reminded that not yet did he even know her name. "It is safe now," he amended, more clearly and steadily, "to come out, if you will." He heard no response. The long gleaming folds of the portieres hung motionless. Still, a sharp and ataccato clatter of hoofs that had risen in the street, might have drowned her voice. "If you please—?" he said again, loudly. The silence sang sibilant In his ears and he grew conscious of a sense of anxiety and fear stifling in Its intensity. At length, striding forward, with a swift gesture he flung the hangings aside. (To Be Continued.) EMMA GOLDMAN TALK BARRED. Indianapolis Police Refuse to Allow Her to Speak in the City. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 28.—Emma Goldman was led from the Propyleum here last night when she was about to address a large audience that had as sembled at the fashionable clubhouse to hear her. Twenty policemen were on hand when she arrived and as she stepped into the hall she was told that she would not be permitted to speak in this city. She demurred at first, but the officers gathered around and she was informed that she would have to go to the police station if she persisted. She did not make any further resist ance. Ben L. Keitman, who was with her, attempted to speak on a corner, near the Propyleum, but the police forced him to desist under threats to lock him up.

Its action is so rapid that its victim is often in a precarious con dition before realizing that anything more serious is the matter than a se vere cold. This is one of the dangers that may follow neglect of a cough or cold, and is therefore the best of reasons why one should check a cold at the start. I A simple, inexpensive ami effective remedy, that will usually break a cold! overnight, is the mixture of one-halt'] ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine compound' pure, with two ounces of Glycerine and a half pint of good Whisky.

OSKALOOSA KICKED OUT. Central Association Drops Quakers From the League. Oskaloosa received the same treat ment that Marshalltown did in profes sional ba.se ball matters Tuesday, when, at the fall meeting of the Central as sociation. held in Waterloo, the Quak ers were dropped from the league. Lack of attendance is given as the reason for the action. Applications were re ceived from Galesburg. III.. Hannibal, Mo., but no action was taken. A town to take Oskaloosa's place will be chosen at the annual meeting of the associa tion, which .is to be held in January. News from Oskaloosa indicates that the greatest indignation prevails there because of th^ league's action. It is said that Oskaloosa will not submit without a light, and at all events is de termined to have a professional base ball team next season. It is even hinted in Oskaloosa that Marshalltown 1 is anxious for professional base ball, and that the organization of a Class league, with Oskaloosa, Marshall town and Mason City as a nucleus, might not be an impossibility.

New Discovery Cures Eczema and Eradicates Minor Skin Troubles Overnight. A few months ago the dispensers of poslain. the new discovery for the cure of eczema, decided to allow the drug gists of the country to handle it. Pre vious to that time it could only be ob tained direct from the laboratories. Since this change in the method of: distribution, poslam has met with the •most phenominal success of anything introduced to the drug trade In the last :J0 years. All leading druggists, in cluding McBride Will Drug com pany, Marshalltown, arc now carrying the special 50-cent size recently adopted, also the ?2 jar. This great success is not surprising when it is remembered that, in eczema cases, poslam stops the itching with first application, proceeds to heal im mediately, and cures chronic cases in a few weeks. In minor skin troubles, such as pimples, blackheads, acne, herpes, blotches, rash, etc., results show after an overnight application. Experimental samples of poslam are sent to anyone by mail free of charge,^ by the Emergency laboratories, 32~ West Twenty-fifth Street, New York City.

ChoeoUta Bonbom Theater—State Committee Working for Evening Date Same Day —LaFollette Fine Speaker. Marshall town Is likely to have the distinction of being the one place in Iowa where United States Senator Robert M. LaFollette, of Wisconsin, will deliver a political address during the present campaign. It is possible that the Wisconsin senator will speak nt one otiher point, altho as yet this Is not settled. I^Ie will bo in this city, however, on Saturday afternoon, Oct. 31. according to information furnished by the state committee at 10 o'clock Tuesday night to Secretary W. S. De vine, of the county central commit tee. The TjaFollette meeting will be the oriebig political event, of the campaign for central Iowa, and the probabilities aro that there will bo a largo crowd In the city to hear the senator. The national committee at Chicago notified the Iowa state committee 'Tuesday afternoon that l^aJFollette would be assigned to Iowa foi one meeting. It then became Incumbent upon the state committee to select the city in which the senator would ap pear. Many cities wanted him, and an effort was immediately made In Dos I Moines to secure him for a meeting there on Monday, but the state com mittee decided In favor of Marshall I town, and fixed Saturday afternoon as the time. If there is a second meeting in Iowa held It will be on the evening of tihe same day. Outdoor Meeting, Weather Permitting. Weather permitting tho LaFollette meeting will be held out of doors, from an improvised platform in front of tile court house, otherwise the Odeon thea ter will be used for the meeting. Af rangoments wil' be made for music. I The meeting will doubtless begin at 2 o'clock, aitho the exact hour will be announced later. Senator LaFollette comes to this city directly from Madi son. LaFollette ia Great Speaker. Senator LaFollette Is one of the most noted political speakers in this or anj^ other country. He Js *»*e of those politicians who does things and who says things withojt strings to them'. As a fighter he is the type of man who never "lays down as a poli tician and efffice holder ihe Is always ready to take an issue, personal or political to the people. He made his famous 'tour thru Iowa When he made his famous itour thru Iowa as a lecturer in Chautauqua, the enclosures were crowded with rapt list eners who Insisted that he "go on" speaking. He did go on to the point of physical exhaustion in speeches that I occupied four and even six hours, and I held crowds of earnest men spellbound. He is a speaker of marvelo power and magnetism, fearless to final degree. There is no paltering vttf'-h is sues, no straddling, in LaFollettets na ture or in his history. He goes direct to the marrow of his subject, and voices his convictions in language most unmistakably virile and effective. It Is a greait opportunity to hear a political address by the man whose reputation stamps him as the most fearless, sin cere and earnest of public men and 1 CIOAI) TROUT platform orators. No man in \the pub lic life of this country is more feared 1 by the interests opposed to the com nion good tht_-. LaFollette, unless It may be President Roosevelt. LaFol lette is essentially of the Roosevelt type of political leader. Like Roosevelt his public utterances "strike at public evils, without serious consideration of whom ithey may strike or the com motion they may cause. He is the dom inant figure of middle west political life, and typical of the middle west, a man who has succeeded to high of flee without recourse to hole and cor ner politics, openly aggressive, and de I manding the popvlar rights of the I masses. Republicans, democrats, all who can, without regard to classes or political affiliations, will be richly re paid by hearing LaFollette here next Saturday. ,j LYRIC CASES ASSIGNED.

It wits a story of a supposed friend's duplicity that Ralph Keyes, a former Iowa Central shop employe, who has just been discharged from St. Thomas hospital, after a siege of three weeks ,wiith typhoid fever, told in the police fcourt this morning, when he sought aid in having arrested one Raymond Cordelli, a 'Cuban, whom he said had robbed him and left him pfinniless. Cordelli was also a strike breaker employed by the Central. When Keyes lay sick with a high fever at his room ing place. 203 South Third avenue, Cor delli visited him and showed great so licitation for his welfare. Keyes says that when he was so sick he scarcely knew or cared what he was doing Cor delli induced him to sign an order for his pay,' due him from the company, amounting to $31.30. Keyes also says that Cordelli secured from the former's landlady $5, which Keyes had in trusted to her for safe keeping, by the pretense that Keyes had told him ito get it. In addition Keyes says Cor delli borrowed his overcoat, and after promising several times to bring it back, disappeared with it and the money. Keyes says Cordelll's home is In Havana, Cuba. The result is that Keyes, who Is just able to be up, is without money and unable to work. Mayor Ingledue re ferred him to County Attorney Eger nvayer. ARRESTED FOR THEFT.

Stanton, Stale Normal's President Points Out Criticisms of Common Education THE NEED OF TRADE SCHOOLS Chief Criticism is That Schools Pre­ pare for Higher Education and Not for Practical Work Day Life—Reads Statistics On Education That Are Astounding. President H. II. Seerley, of the State Normal school of Cedar Kails, opened the fourth season of the Searchlight club at the Railroad V. M. C. A. Tues day night with a lecture on "What Is the Matter With Our Public Schools?" President Seerley lias become a popu lar speaker on educational subjects locally, and he gave the large audience that gathered to hear him a character istically, straight-from -t he-shoulder talk. President Seerley's address was chiefly one of criticisms—not his own. but complied from articles written by authors who had attempted to point out the defects in our common school educational system—and reud to the audience for the purpose of provoking discussion. Fails to Reach the Needy. One of the chief points of these crit icisms, and one made doubly clear by remarks of the speaker. Is that, whllo our school system is supposed to be democratic, and Is in fact free, that It has been developed more especially for the middle and upper classes than for the poor, who most need it. Evidence of tliis is in the fact that the ~Uend ance at public schools of Statistics an Eye Opener. Statistics the speaker read, compiled for the year l!07 on attendance in the public schools of the United States, showed a remarkable condition of af fairs, and indicated of what small value the high school is, when consid ered solely as a preparatory school for the colleges anil universities. Accord ing to the statistics read there were In the elementary grades in 1907, 1C, 000,000 pupils. This number decreased to 714.900 in the high school. The total attendance in colleges and universities was 51,330, indicating that not more than 5 per cent of those who start ill the public schools ever reach a college or university, and that a wry large per cent never get. beyond the grades. A Suggestion for Remedies. Taking for granted the truthfulness of the statistics, which Mr. Seerley does not doubt, the remedies suggested tend to benefit that large percentage of children who never get beyond the grades, rather than the improvement of high school courses -to strengthen them as stepping stones for higher ed-. tication. Some of the remedies sug gested are the establishment of trade and technical schools, and providing short courses in trades and businesses in the present schools, and In general the training of children for trades and vocations with which to earn a living. President Seerley made it plain that he did not refer to any particular city's schools in his lecture, least of all' this city's schools. When the question was opened for discussion, which was at some length. Superintendent Palmer .told the audi ence thatvery many of the criticisms offered did not apply to the city's schools. Before President Seerley began. President C. C. Trine, of the club, de livered a short annual address. Almost 100 were served with supper by the Ladies' auxiliary. In the District Court.

Rcceipts Heavy, But Prices for the Best Grades Not Much Lower HOGS GAIN OVER EARLY PRICES The Opening Was Weak to Five Lower But the Close Showed Gains of Five to Ten Over Earlier Quotations Sheep Trade Light, Altho Buyers Were Willing. Chicago, Oct. 2S.—Cattle receipts woro far beyond expectations, and this with poor support, resulted in a weak and slow market, altho prices for the best grades were not much lower. For several weeks it has been great ly oversupplied. especially with the common stuff, but good steers are ap parently getting scarcer, liiners have been paving a premium for the prime fat steers and consequently the range of prices for the. extreme grades of killing steers is much wider than usual. I Valors say there is but little chance for the common steers to improve as long as most of jtlie receipts are of such poor quality. The weak closing of the Monday market was evidence of the compara tively small requirements of beef trade just now, since coolers are well loaded from big marketings recently. .Ship ping demand is not broadening, altho the call from exporters shows a little improvement, but as yet there is not inquiry enough from this source to prove any material factor in the price regulating unless under quite light sup plies.

Under 3 70 lbs they are in discriminating mood, especially when it was a guessing match as to where the stuff would tip the scales. Shee| Altho receipts were liberal, buyers were willing to pay steady prices, but the trade was light. Altho paying considerably higher prices than last week for live stuff, I buyers are protesting that the dead mutton market is still in a bad way. The fact must not be overlooked that this rise has been effected on a sharp contraction in supply, the country having cut off native lambs, owing to the severe manner in which they were punished last week. Less than 30,000 have arrived in two days this week, or 25,000 less than a year ago. It is a season of feast and famine runs. With every feast buyers will smash prices, but the market will be bid up on famine runs. Sheep—Estimated receipts for today. '20,000 opened steady 2.60@4.S5: lambs, 4.10@6.20 yearlings, 4.60 5.25.

Chicago, Oct. 28—Those in close touch with range conditions are of the opin ion that receipts will be very small the remainder of the season. There were not so many cattle availa.ble in the first place and as many ^ere mar keted early in the season the supply later was cut down. Last year the re verse was true. In 1906 conditions were such ihat the supply did not come free ly till September, and half the season's receipts were dumped on the market in October. This month's receipts will be comparatively light. It is estimated that the year's supply will show a de crease of about 75.000, compared with last year. Prices have not been high, partly on account ol quality, which was not very good on an average. Be sides the market was swamped most of the time with native stook of a sim ilar grade.

Chicago, "Oct. 28.—Ten thousand farmers, residing in five states, and several hundred families in Chicago were taken firmly in hand yesterday by the' city department of health by way of suppressing sporadic outbreaks of scarlet fever, typhoid, and diphtheria which are manifesting themselves, ap parently with small excuse. The supervision is the most syste matic ever attempted in Chicago, and in the opinion of Health Commissioner W. A. Evans not only will avert the likelihood of an epidemic of magnitude but will go far toward ridding the city of all three diseases. Families from which cases of .any of the three ailments are reported natur ally will receive first attention. Ten inspectors of the department have been sent out to investigate all conditions surrounding the patients, and are fur nished with a big report sheet on which to check their information. The sheet is divided Into two parts, one for reports on infants and one for adults. The latter has to do with the milk supply, the ice used in the family, the place at which tho patient is em ployed, the restaurant, if any, at which he lias been accustomed to take meals, the name of his vegetable dealer, and much minor information. Thru these reports tho contagion can be traced, it is believed, to its source, and further cases from tho same origin can be prevented. Eyes of Law on Farmers, Too. The supervision over farmers who ship milk to. the city will be no less strict. Beginning today thousands of little yellow tabs will be sent out to them, on which they will be expected to report, twice a week, all cases of contagious disease which appear in their families or the families of their milkers. If there is no such disease the farmer must send in his report, certifying to that effect, and if lie ne glects to do so his milk will be sent back. There are now 200 cases of scarlet fever and 225 cases of diphtheria in tho cjjy, most of them having .been reported within the last few days. "The condition is not entirely sat isfactory," said Commissioner Evans, in discussing the report -blanks. "The department Is trying to put its finger on the real sources of contagion. The cases now coming in are spasmodic, and not confined to any particular lo cality. In West Pullman and back of the yards there are scarcely any new cases." Think Old Sewer Cause of Fever.

Consultation Free and Confidential* The cause of the recent typhoid fever epidemic in Maywood waa solved during the day, it is believed, by the finding of an abandoned plank sewer within a few hundred feet of the vil lage wells. It is now the theory of tno authorities that impurities from tl source leaked Into the wells near liv providing water to tile villagers and contaminated the water which lia been found to be impure. The old sewer was found by work men laying a branch sewer from the bank building and connecting with the recently installed Melrose Park sewer on First street. Dr. Evans of the state board of health inspected the -suburb and thought the abandoned sewer an im portant factor in causing the epidemic, but expressed his opinion to .Marshal Camphouse that the stagnation of the Desplaines river was the real source. lr. Evans will make a written report of his inspection to the village health officials. Tlie total number of fever cases re ported by the doctors is' forty. Several rases have been heard of in the last few days, and. added to this, an ep idemic of diptheria has started in the west portion of the village, it is stated. In the last two weeks five fatalities have occurred, three from ty.phoid fever and two from diptheria. For Constipation. Mr. Z. H.
