Nationalist from North Sll-o. said the Nationalists wanted to build up an Ireland where Protestants would have equal rights with fat holies. He said .that a large number of people In the north of Ireland had been converted to home rula In recent years and the number was steadily Increasing. Fair Play I fraaUe4. Charles Curtis Craig. Unionist, from South Antrim, said that the feclinc In the north of Ireland against home rule was stronger than ever. Samuel Young, a Protestant repre senting a Catholic constituency In I'leter. supported the bill. "I have lived for years among Catho lics." he said, "there Is no spirit of despotism or tyranny among them. Tney don"t desire to put down the I roteMani minority, but are anxious to give fair play to all." I-opold Amerla, Unionist for South Birmingham, and a well-known writer, said the measure waa so great a crime that Ulster was Justified In re sisting by every means at its disposal, however extreme.

The steady fire of the three-pounder gave first warning to the Inhabitants of Teplc that the battle was on In earnest and did such effective work on the approaching rebel ranks that they were ' stayed until the garrison had transported abundant ammunition to all the outposts and completed all preparations for the battle. At S o'clock In the afternoon the bugles In the cathedral tower shrilled forth the call to battle. Doors were barricaded, shutters clanged on win lows and all non-combatant Teplc burled Itself within Its three-foot walls. RaaU-Flre r.m Deadly. Kven as the echoes of the first bugle call died into the sharper command to open fire three half-hidden machine guns responded with an opening rattle that soon became a deafening purr. The young gunners of the federal army bsd the range and the elevation rebels began to fall by ones and twos here and there and then by squads, as they charged. Despite the hall of destruction, the rebels rushed on until they were with in 300 yards of the stone walls which hid the machine gun and the waiting cavalry. Then, for an Instant the song of the rapld-flrers ceased: the bugles' cry of "Fuego" rose and as It merged Into the "Mexlranoa Al Grlto el Guer rera." the cavalry, sabres and carbines heated but with revolvers in each band and bridle reins hung about their necks, charged in attack. Hekela ararWd at "ally. It was a short sally. Intended to be so. but It took the rebels by surprise. The federals cut their way to the sec ond line, where they turned and, amid whistling hall of bullets, rode to the protection of the walla. The rebels, thinking the force of the garrison had retreated Into the cuartel as was the custom of garrisons under the Plas regime, followed in a head long charge only to be assailed by a hail of lead from machine guns and rifles, well concealed behind thick stone walls. The effect was disastrous but fresh bands of rebels came from the hills, 1-I by Guerrero himself, and they gained almost the entrance to the town before seeking shelter in the plowed earth.

The advance movement to the south ward for which the rebes had panned assiduously since the defeat of the I Federal forces at Parrel., began Sunday morning. Not only has the advance from the north begun, but It Is said that Torreon Is being menaced from the south and west by 3000 rebels from the Laguna district. Rebel leaders are confident of the outcome. They waited until they were ready, they say, and believe that the capitulation or Torrcn and Its occupation by the IJberal forcea la only a question of days. They hope to destroy utterly the Federal army under General Huerta. The entire rebel force Is well suppled with ammu nition for both rifes and big guns and has ampe food and forage for men and horses.

"I am sure I'm good for many years more. "I had the honor to be born on the birthdays of Shakespeare and tit. George, but unhappily I cannot cele brate with them, for they are both dead." he chuckled. Asked to what he attributed his splendid health at the age of 78 Mr. Depew said: "I have always been very careful what I put 'Into my stomach, and I have never stopped working. That Is the secret of It all. Work, but find time also to play. Know as many fine people as you can and cultivate their acquaintance, for a great deal of what I have got out of life I got from other people."

The steamship Texas, belonging to the Archipelago American Steamship Company, struck a mine at the entrance to the Gulf of Smyrna and sank. One hundred and fifty persons on board were drowned. Another report says that ninety pas sengers out of the 16b on board the Texas were reacued. Several of the rescued were injured. The crew were not accounted for In this report. Jt is alleged the disaster was due to the Texas deviating from the course Indicated by the pilot boat preceding lier through the mine field. The Texas was Hying the Turkish flag and was engaged In carrying mall from Constantinople to the Ievant. It was first said that the Texas was an American vessel, the error arising from the fact that it Is part of the fleet of a local concern trading under the name of the Archipelago American Steamship Company. The Gulf of Smyrna Is one of the finest harbors In the Mediterranean, and Smyrna Itself Is the principal seaport of Asiatic Turkey. The entrance was extensively mined recently by the Turkish authorities to protect the port against an attack by the Italian fleet. The Texas was a vessel of 261 tons net register, built at Newcastle, England. In 18S8. She was at first called the Olympic, then rechrlstened the Marguerite and finally the Texas. HARVESTER TRUST SUED (Ponllnued Prom First Pai?. vesting lines, the petition declares that the output of the alleged trust amounts to over 30 per cent of the whole. The Government contends that the corporation has eliminated competition by securing control of a great major ity of the retail Implement dealers In the. United States, who are made their exclusive selling agents. Competing Companies Absorbed. The Government charges that the de fendants ' have absorbed competing companies, but concealed their owner ship, permitting them to be advertised "aa wholly Independent and without connection with them, 'the trust,' or any 'combination,' Intending thereby to mislead, deceive and defraud the public and more effectually cripple existing competitors and keep out new ones." The bill contains these charges: "Defendants have resorted to. unfair trade methods; have made inaccurate and -misleading statements concerning rival machines or concerning the credit of competitors; have by misrepresenta tions sought to Induce competitors, agents and dealers to abandon them. and In divers unfair ways have en deavored to destroy them; and, for the purpose of destructive competition, have reduced prices of their machines In some localities below cost of pro duction and distribution, while keep ing up prices in other localities. "Defendants have systematically bought up patents upon harvesting ma chinery, tools and implements, and ac- ' quired all new Inventions therein. In order thereby more effectually to per petuate the combination and monop oly." Many Named as Defrndaats. The following corporations and In dividuals are mentioned aa defendants In the petition: International Harvester Company. International Harvester Company of America, International Flax Twine Company, Wisconsin Steel Company, The Wisconsin Lumber Company, Illi nois Northern Railway, the Chicago, West Pullman & Southern Railroad Company, Cyrus H. Mccormick, Charles Deering, James Deering, John J. Gless ner. William H. Jones, Harold F. Mc cormick, Richard F. Howe, Edgar A. Bancroft, George F. Baker, William J. Louderback. Norman B. Ream. Charles Steele, John A. Chapman, Elbert H. Gary, Thomas D. Jones, John P. Wil son. William L. Saunders, George W. Perkins. The International Harvester Company was organized In New Jersey In 1902. Before that time, the Government de clares, there were 10 or 12 establish ments for the manufacture and sale of harvesting implements in active competition with each other. The company was incorporated In New Jersey with a capital stock ori ginally of $120,000,000. The control of the capital stock waa placed In the hands of three voting trustees Cyrus H. McCormtck. Charles Deering an.l George W. Perkins, who Issued stock trust certificates to the persons actual ly owning the stock. Morgan's Firm Well Paid. The petition says that $3,451,808 In stock waa Issued to J. P. Morgan A Co. for underwriting services and legal expenses and $3,148,197 to the same firm In reimbursement for the cash ex pended to secure the property of the Milwaukee Harvester Company. The absorbed Milwaukee Harvester Company was converted into the Inter national Harvester Company of Amer ica, through which the alleged trust sells exclusively its entire output in the I'nited 8tates. l"VV. ,,V.V,..UV . .

Stomach trouble is the direct cause of more derangements of the nervous sys tem and general bodily functions than any other ailment, according to Prof. J. M. Munyon. the millionaire health expert. In a chatty discussion yester day. He said: "Imperfect digestion causes more serious disease than all other ailments combined. Nearly every form of dis ease begins in the stomach. I haw been amazed by the number of Port land people who are suffering from serious diseases resulting from neglect of their stomachs. "Indigestion wrecks the entire nerv ous system, clogs up waste matter In the body, poisons the blood and causes scores of painful complaints In all parts of the body. Half-digested food in a weak stomach literally rots, forms poisonous gases and makes disease of all kinds. Constipation, keeping the decayed matter In the body, causes more deaths than war. "Vet laxatives do no permanent good, merely relieving the condition for the time being. If the use of laxatives is persisted in It will gradually cause paralysis of the bowel muscles. To cure constipation one must get at the root of the trouble the stomach. The only positive cure for constipation is a treatment which will put the entire body in a healthy condition and allow nature to take its normal course. "I do not mean that a Remedy for stomach trouble is a cure-all. Once local diseases, even though .originating in malnutrition of food, gain headway, they must be treated as specific com plaints. I consider them really onl symptoms of the general disorder, yet they must be overcome one by one. That is why I have had expert special ists, physicians and chemists in my laboratories for jnanv years, constant! working out the best remedies for every disease, so that my physician can combine them In individual treat ments exactly suited to every case."

Th arrangement between the International Harvester Company and International Harvester Company of America was further devised and is now being car ried out by the defendants for the purpose of giving- to the New Jerriy Company the appearance of not being 4ngagea in interstate commerce. ' Pointing out that as a rule agricul tural implements are sold direct by the manufacturers to the retail dealer, eliminating the usual wholesaler or Jobber, the petition accuses the Harves ter Company of endeavoring to ac quire control of these retail merchants scattered over the country. Dealers Controlled by Contracts. "This," it is added, "was in pursuance of defendans' policy, bv disguising ownership, to use controlled companies to break down competition and secure for themselves the benefit of public sentiment against combinations." The Harvester Cfmpany receives ma terials iron, steel and lumber through the Wisconsin Steel Company and the Wisconsin Lumber Company, subsidiaries which the petition declares are used as means and instrumental ities to eliminate competition." It Is alleged the defandants have used the Illinois Northern Railway and Tiie means of accomplishing this in 1903, 1904 and 1905, it is declared, wa through contracts making these deal ers exclusive sales agents of the de fendants, and binding them under pen alties, "not to sell or be interested in the sale of any grain-binder, header, corn-binder, husker. shredder, reaper, mower, stacker, sweep-rake, hay-rake or hay-tedder not manufactured by the defendant International Harvester Company." During the succeeding years down to the present. It is charged, the com pany exercised a like control and dom ination over a great majority of retail implement dealers in the country by means of agency contracts, which may be annulled by the International Har vester Company of America when it considers Its interests neglected or placed in Jeopardy. "This." It is added, "was in pursuance of defendants' policy, by disguising ownership to use controlled companies to break down competition and secure for themselves the benefit of public sentiment against combinations. The Harvester Company reveices ma terials iron, steel and lumber through the Wisconsin Steel Company and the Wisconsin Lumber Company subsidiaries, which the petition declares are "used as means of instrumentali ties to eliminate competition." Railroads I'sed to Obtain Preferences. It is alleged the defendants have used the Illinois Northern Railway and the Chicago, West Pullman & Southern Railway Company, which they control, to obtain undue preferences from rail roads connecting with them.
