CALLS ON CONGHESS TO ACT
President Recommends Insurance
Law for District of Columbia.
WASHINGTON. ' April 17. President
Roosevelt today transmitted to Con
gress the following message relating
to Insurance legislation:
"1 herewith transmit the report and
recommendations, with accompanying
l.aper. of the Insurance convention
which mt in February In Chicago.
The convention was called because
of the extraordinary disclosures of
wrongful Insurance methods recent
ly made by the Armstrong legislative
committee of the State of New York,
the suggestion that it shall be called
coming to me originally from Governor
.Tohn A. Johnson. of Minnesota,
through Commissioner of Insurance
Thomas D. O'Brien, of that state.
"The convention consisted of about
100 Governors. Attorney-Generals and
Commissioners of Insurance of the
states and territories of the Union.
The convention was seeking to accom
plish uniformity of insurance legisla
tion throughout the states and terri
tories, and as a prime step toward this
purpose decided to endeavor to secure
the enactment by Congress of a proper
insurance code for the District of Co
lumbia, which might serve as a model
for the several states. Before ad
journing, the convention appointed a.
committee of three Attorney-Generals
and Commissioners of Insurance of the
various states to prepare and have pre
sented to Congress a bill which should
embody the features suggested by the
convention.
"The committee recently met in
Chicago, and In thorough and pains
taklng fashion sought to prepare a
bill which should be at once protective
of policyholders and fair and Just to
.nsurance companies, and which should
prevent the graver evils and abuses of
the business and at the same time
forestall any wild or drastic legislation
which would be more harmful than
beneficial.
"The proposed bill is discussed at length
in th accompanying letter by Superintend
ent Thomas B. Drake, of the Department
of Unsurance In the District of Colum
bia. I very earnestly hope that the Con
gress at the earliest opportunity will en
act this bill into law with such changes
as its wisdom may dictate.
"I have no expert familiarity with
the business, but I have entire faith
in the right judgment and single
minded purpose of the Insurance con
vention which met at Chicago, end of
the committee of that convention
-which has formulated the measure
herein advocated.
"We are not to be pardoned if we
fall to take every step in our power to
j-rvent the possibility of the repetl-
have occurred in connection with the
Insurance business as disclosed by the
Armstrong: committee."

CONTRACT FOR LOAN OF $456,
000,000 SIGNED IN PARIS.
Vltte in Clover and Has Promise of
Durnoro's Dismissal Liberals
Disconsolate About Loan.
ST. PETERSBURG. April 17. The suc
cessful negotiation of a foreign loan of
$50,000,000, ruinous as are the rates
which Russia Is obliged to pay for the
money, extricates the government from
much or Its embarrassment and enables
it to clear the decks of the accumula
tion of debts and furnish the cash neces
sary to keep the treasury above water
at least for two years. Irrespective of the
attitude of the National Parliament.
Premier Witte is greatly encouraged by
the outlook.
The Associated Press Is In a position to
confirm the report that Premier Wltle
now has definitely got the upper hand of
Minister of the Interior Durnovo. The
downfall of the latter is a matter of only
a few weeks at the most, as Emperor
Nicholas has promised to dismiss him
before the National Parliament meets.
The Associated Press learns on authority
that unless the unexpected happens it is
the government's intention to allow the
Parliament to sit two months before the
Summer vacation and reconvene it at the
end of September.
The opposition, and especially the revo
lutionists, are correspondingly crestfallen
over the decision of foreign bankers to
come to the government's rescue in the
present crisis.
Arrangements for the loan have been
signed In Paris. About half the amount
was taken by France In conjunction with
Belgian interests, and Austria took the
portion originally assigned to Germany.
The loan, which Is at S per cent. Is for 40
years, and is free from taxation. The
government necurities fell heavily on the
Bourse today upon the announcement of
the terms of the loan. In order to read
just prices to the new Issues. Imperial 4s
Cropped 151 points to 7.
MUTINY IN CAUCASIAN ARMY
Troops FJfclit and 31atlnccrs Arc
Subdued by Volley.
t ST. PETERSBURG, April 17. The story
published In the United States today that
a part of the garrison at TJflis had muti
nied and that In a fight between the muti
neers and loyal troops 315 soldiers had
been killed and 800 wounded probably orig
inated with a report published in the
Russkoe Slavo of April 10 of a meeting
of soldiers at Tlfils to present certain
grievances of which they complained.
After that meeting 100 men were arrest
ed and fighting occurred between different
companies of the Mlngrelskl regiment
arising out of a demand for the liberation
of the arrested soldiers. The commander
of the regiment later reported that there
had been bloodshed on account of the
malcontents trying to force a loyal com
pany to join with them In the demand
for the release of the prisoners.
This company barricaded Itself In It
barracks and fired a volley at the muti
neers, killing seven of them. After other
troops had been summoned the mutineers
submitted to authority.
STRANGE CAUSE OF A SCARE
Rumors or Disaster Follow Taking
Down of Flags.
ST. PETERSBURG. April 17.-The re
markable action of the police yesterday in
suddenly ordering the flags hung out for
the holidays taken in. has caused the circu
lation of the wildest rumors of the death
of a member of the Imperial family. Today
comes the rather amusing explanation
that under the law flags and Illumina
tions are not permitted without the au
thority of the Prefect of Police, "per
mission" being equivalent to a command,
and the householders failing to decorate
are fined. This year the Prefect granted
permission to decorate as usual, but neg
lected to Include the display of flags, and
the police went from. hou?e to house,
compelling the occupant to take down
their flags.
Immediately reports spread that some
great catastrophe had occurred at Tsars-koe-Selo
and that the announcement was
being withheld until after the holidays.

whether there shall be any arbitration.
This reply is made In response to Mr.
Mitchell's recent amended proposition of
arbitration.
The operators do not. however, refuse
point-blank to accept Mr. Mitchell's lat
est plan. They azeert that all the differ
ences between the miners and their em
ployers have been decided by the Strike
Commission and that there Is no reason
why another attempt should be made to
arbitrate them.
"The fundamental principles regarding
the conduct of this business have all been
established hy the Strike Commission."
the operators declare. "No reason Is sug
gested why they should be retried. We
have no further suggestions to make than
those contained In our former proposi
tions, and we regret that you have de
clined both of them. We have nothing
further to offer."
The operators assert that the miners
offer lo waive formal recognition of the
miners' union is not material and declare
that the miners' programme would in
crease the cost of domestic sizes of coal

THE PEOPLE'S MAXIMS
A man afraid to trust the people should not be trusted by
the people.
Vote only for Legislative candidates -who have subscribed to
Statesient Ko. 1, without isalifi cation.
Statement No. 1 Legislative candidates compose the People's
Slate for a Principle, net for an individual
Legislation- is divorced from Senatorial election through the
election of Statement No. 1 Legislators, thus protecting the State
Treasury.
If all Legislative candidates subscribe to Statement No. 1,
there can be no possibility of a deadlock.
Statement No. 1 enfranchises the people, curbs the trusts,
and throttles the grafters. Investigation of opponent's vocation
discloses motive for his opposition. .
Every advocate of the election of United States Senators by
direct vote of the people, if sincere and intelligent, will vote only
for Statement No. 1 Legislative candidates.
All honorable men should protest with their votes against
anonymous billingsgate and fatherless lies.
There are five candidates seeking the Republican nomination
for United States Senator. The one receiving the most votes at
the primaries will be the Republican nominee. The law allows
each political party to have only one candidate on the official
ballot at the June election. Owing to the enormous Repub
lican majority in this state, it is a foregone conclusion that the
Republican will be the one selected.

Stomach.
A Avcak stomach is most fre
quently caused by the over
"vvorked and exhausted nervous
system.
The power that runs the
stomach is the nerve force sent
to it from the brain through
the nerves. When the nerves
are weak or exhausted the sup
ply of energy is insufficient
and the action of the stomach
is impaired, and results in im
perfect digestion dyspepsia.
Dr. Miles Restorative Nerv
ine increases nerve force. It
strengthens and builds up nen e
tissue, gives vigor to the nerves
and muscles .of the stomach;
this produces a healthy activity.
Nervine allays the inflamma7
tion, heals the membranes, and
makes the stomach strong and
healthy. There is nothing that
so quickly gives energy to the
whole system as Restorative
Nervine.
"I can't say enough for Drv Miles'
Nervine. I don't kno-w -what It wIU
do ror others, but It certainly cured"m
or stomach trouble, and now I am as
well as I ever -was. Two physicians
failed to. relieve me. but In three or
four days after taking Nervine I was
much relieved. Four bottles made me
a sound man. at the coat of 14.09."
