SHELVE HIS ISSUE
Balfour's Plans Give Offense
. : to Chamberlain.
FISCAL QUESTION TO REAR
British Conservative Leaders Refuse
to Read Free-Traders Out of the
Party Home Rule Is the
Main Issue.
LONDON. Feb. 2S. The political situ
ation Is undergoing some rather Inter
esting developments and there are in
dications of the Intention of the govern
ment to sidetrack the fiscal controversy.
An attempt was made on the part of the
Chamberlain section of the Unionist party
to compel Lord Hugh Cecil to resign
the parliamentary seat for Greenwich,
but Lord Cecil politely declined to quit
and In that determination received un
expected strong support from Sir Alex
ander Acland-Hood, chief government
whip, who In a public letter on the sub
ject declines to "act unfairly towards a
man who has rendered most valuable as
sistance to the party of .which he Is a
brilliant member, simply because he does
not support the government on the fiscal
Question."
This letter, which virtually accords
to all Conservative candidates complete
freedom of action In fiscal affairs, is
keenly resented by the Chamberlain
group, whose Irritation Is increased by
a letter from Premier Balfour to the
Conservative candidate in Buteshire. In
which, with reference to changes in fiscal
policy, the Premier says:
"Important as are the issues thus
raised, we must not let them obscure
the fundamental principle of the Unionist
party. If I rightly read the signs of
the times, the policy of home rule only
awaits the advent of the Radical party
to power to become active, militant and
perilous."
This letter is Interpreted as showing
Mr. Balfour's resolve to thrust fiscal re
form into the background as an eleotlon
cry, and keen curiosity is excited as to
how the move will be met by ilr. Cham
berlain. Much bitterness continues to prevail
over the MacDonnell affair.

TAFT DEPENDS COMMISSION.
Says Emergency Contracts for Canal
Were Wisely Made.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 28. Emergency
contracts for supplies made by the
Panama Canal Commission without
legal advertising for bids, formed one
of the topics of discussion at today's
meeting of the Cabinet. Secretary Taft
explained that two weeks or more ago
he had sent to the Commission for all'
emergency contracts that had been
made. He had gone over most of them
with some care, and was inclined to
the opinion that, in such as he had ex
amined, the Commission had acted
wisely.
Some of the purchases, perhaps, were
open to unfavorable criticism, but it
was remarkable, he thought, in view
of the necessity for haste in procuring
many of the supplies, particularly med
ical supplies, that criticism should not
lie against more of the contracts made.

Corbett-Nelson fight. It was a Corbett
crowd, and when the little Denverite
seemed to have the best of the milling In
the earlier rounds, they cheered as lustily
as If they had been at the ringside. "When
the tide turned in the Dane's favor,
there was some applause from the Nelson
followers and when he won acheer rose,
but it was a cheer for the victor and not
for the favorite.
Fight fans who had seen Corbett in
action wanted to see him win. Those that
had not seen him. because of his de

him win. There was little betting on the
outcome of the fight. Perhaps J500

someone left $200 with Ed Schiller to bet
on the Dane, but he wanted even money
and did not get his money placed.

VITAL WEAKNESS
Above all other thlnes, we strive to save the thoH-
sands of young: and middle-aged men who are plung

debility. We have evolved a special treatment for
Nrvous Debility and special weakness that is uni
formly successful in cases where success waa before
and by oiner doctors deemed impossible. It does not
stimulate temporarily, but restores permanently. It
allays irritations of the delicate tissues surrounding;
the lax and unduly expanded glands, contracting them
to their normal condition, which prevents lost vitality.
It tones up and strengthens the blood vessels that
carry nourishment. The patient realizes a great bllghc
has been lifted from his life.
