STATEHOOD FIGHT
WILL' BE RENEWED
Conference Report Lacks Sup
port of Majority.
FORAKER WILL OPPOSE IT
Agreement Includes Ills Amendment
for Popular Vote on Union of
Territories, but He Objects
Just the Same.
WASHINGTON, June I-Confer.ees
on the statehood bill at 3 o'clock to
day signed a report covering all points
In dispute, but exception was taken by
the Democrats to the agreement In re
lation to Arlsona and New Mexico.
The vote was unanimous In regard to
the provisions relating to the. admis
sion of Oklahoma and 1 Indian Terri
tory. The exceptions taken by Senator Pat
terson and Representative Moon, the
managers on the part of the minority,
. Indicate that the agreement may yet
encounter shoals in the Senate, where
a po.ll shows that without Democratic
votes the report cannot be adopted.
The opposition to the admission of
New Mexico and Arizona as one state
has been led from the first by Senator
Foraker. By the aid of a few Repub
licans and practically the entire Dem
ocrats strength, he has succeeded In
preventing an agreement on any meas
ure that would not give to the people
of either territory the right at a special
election to rejeot joint statehood.
By the agreement signed todar. the
' people of these territories can vote
separately on the question of statehood
e.t the regular election on November
, at which time territorial officers and
officers of the proposed new state are
cleoted, and a vote upon the constitu
tion, heretofore adopted, la also to be
bad.
When the conference report was pre
sented to the Senate today Foraker
declared that It was not acceptable to
him, and. he would do his utmost to
(defeat it Bailey declared that the
agreement would not be accepted by
the Democrats. The Indications are,
therefore, that the report will precipi
tate another sharp contest In the Sen
ate. It was stated today that a poll
of the Senate shows 42 Republican
Votes and one Democratic vote for the
conference report, which means that
two more votes would have to be ob
tained before the report can be adept
fed. A member of the majority on the
committee summed up tne agreement
as to Oklahoma and Indian Territory
thus; ' 1
"It strikes out the Warren amendment,
.which permitted the mineral school lands
of Oklahoma to be taken, up by miners,
and provides Instead that the lands shall
be kept by the. State of Oklahoma for Its
schools; that they shall not be sold until
1915, and that In the meantime the school
board of the new state may lease the
lands, the proceeds thereof to go into the
school funds of the state.
"The capital is temporarily located at
Guthrie until 1913. .after which the people
at an election to be prescribed by the
Legislature will fix the capital perma
nently. AVIIAT BECOMES OP SOME MEN
IN" PACKING-HOUSES.
1 Yenchman's Story Causes Stir.
Crumpacker Defends His Bill.
Roosevelt Geta Neill's Report.
PARIS, June 2. (SpeoiaL) Chicago
tneat will be barred out of France if
the object of today's meeting of the
League of Publlo Hygiene, backed by
several scores of French packers, can
be attained. The league expects at
least to get the government to inaugu
rate a new system of Inspection which
will prevent tainted meat from enter
ing the country.
A French emissary, it appears, visited
the stockyards la Chicago and obtained
employment for a year as French
correspondence clerk. Aacordlng to
bis testimony, no meat coming from
Chicago can be eaten with safety. The
most sensational evidence was that
cases had occurred of worklngmen fall
ing accidentally Into the sausage ma
chines, their bones being ground up
with other contents of the vat and issu
ing in the form of food for human con
sumption. KEEP OUT AMERICAN MEAT
German Butchers Quote Sinclair and
German Scientist Against It.
BERLIN, June 2. The text of the peti
tion of the German Butchers' Association,
Sent to Chancellor von Buelow and Minis
ter of Agriculture von Podbielskl,
against any treaty arrangements with the
United States permitting Increased Im
ports of meats, avers that the directors
of the association bad learned that the
great slaughtering companies in the
United States, in order to expand their
sales abroad. Intended to seek a relaxa
tion of the German sanitary customs reg
ulations through the prospective commer
cial treaty negotiations between Germany
and the United States. The butchers of
Germany, therefore, begged the Chancel
lor, in the Interest of publlo health and
the material interests both of the butch
ers and the farmers, not to consider such
a relaxation.
The argument supporting the request in
cludes a comparison between the number
of animals rejected, based on the official
statistics of both countries, showing that
the Prussian and other German inspec
tors disallow two to four times as many
animals as the Americans, and finds a
reason for this, not in the superior health
of the American food animals, but In the
character of the inspectorship.
Quotations are given from Professor R.
Ostertag"s recent book on veterinary med
icine In the United States. Writing of
meat inspection in the large slaughtering
houses, he says:
" "The examination is as cursory as is
perhaps permissible, considering the vast
scale of slaughtering. The veterinary, in
specting freshly killed cattle, turns over
the entrails with, & stick and. examines
the body. It Is Impracticable to' touch
the meat or systematically examine the
sllclngs. There Is no examination for
animal measles. The tongues of beeves,
where the indications are usually found,
are not cut out, nor is it customary to
examine the sllclngs and masticatory
muscles, and the heart, lymphatic glands
and kidneys are not removed from the
coverings of fat. It is perfectly clear
that only such symptoms of disease can
be perceived as are plainly obvious."
The petition ' reproduces copious ex
tracts from Upton Sinclair's "The Jun
gle," and concludes with a description of
the. wealth and power of the so-called
"meat ring." by which it is asserted that
Daniel E. Salmon, the former head of the
Bureau, of American Industry, at Wash
ington, was forced to retire, and the
statement made that even the railways
must bow to the ring; The Government
Is then begged not to open the German
market 'to such institutions. But it is sug
gested that live cattle might be admitted
as the United States Government has met
.with great success In combating Texas
fever.
DEFENDS HIS INSPECTION BILL
Crumpacker Says It Is Against Inter
ests of Beef. Trust.
WASHINGTON. .June 2. (Special.)
Judge Crumpacker, of Indiana, today
met the Insinuation' that his bill to pro
vide for ibe inspection of meat offered
for Interstate and foreign commerce is
"the packers' 'bill'? by the statement
that, if the fees to be charged to the
packers by the Beveridge bill were
eliminated, ,the Beveridge measure
would meet with unqualified approval
from the packers. ;
"The Beveridge bill," said - Judge
Crumpacker. "would aot so as to drive
out of business all the email: indepen
dent packers end would put the beef
trade entirely in the hands of the beef
trust. The small sellers of beef and
other meats throughout the country
could not afford to pay the fees for in
spection and they would have to hand
over their business to the trust. As for
the Insinuation that my bill Is framed
in the interests of the packers, I will
Bay there Is no packing interest in my
district; that 1 have seen no packers
about the measure, and that I stand for
It as calculated to meet the demands
of the situation. I don't care what the
packers want I care for what the
country ought to have."
REPORT GIVEN TO PRESIDENT
Nell! and Reynolds Tell Secrets of
Packing-Houses.
WASHINGTON. June ' 2. President
Roosevelt this afternoon received the
completed report of Professor Charles P.
Nelll and Commissioner of Labor James
B. Reynolds, of their inquiry into the
condition of the meat-packing houses of
the country. The matter submitted to
the President aggregates about 6000
words, and Is a brief of the Investigation
made by Messrs. Nelll and Reynolds. Pro
fessor Nelll and Mr. Reynolds were in
oonsultation for nearly an hour. Present
at the conference also was George P.
MoCabe, solicitor of the Department of
Agriculture. The text of the brief was
discussed thoroughly, and was welded
finally into the form in which it will
be transmitted to Congress next Monday.
The report, as stated heretofore, will be
accompanied by a special message of the
President, in which he will deal vigor
ously with the facts developed by the in
quiry.
PUTS COST ON ; GOVERNMENT
Wadsworth Meat Inspection Scheme
Ready for Committee.
WASHINGTON. June 2. The Wads
worth substitute for the Beveridge
beef-inspection amendment to the ag
ricultural appropriation bill, has been
completed and printed for the infor
mation of the House committee on
agriculture. Until It has been sub
mitted to the commltteee Wednesday it
will not be made public.
The substitute is said to follow the
lines of the Beveridge amendment with
the vital exception that it places the
cost of Inspection upon the Govern
ment. It also provides a court review
of the administration of the inspection
and restricts the Jurisdiction of the
Secretary of Agriculture to the pow
er to make regulations given him in
the Beveridge amendment.
CITY READY TO INVESTIGATE
Mayor Will Appoint Commission to
Act With Government.
CHICAGO, June 2. The city has de
cided to appoint a commission to in
vestigate the conditions at the stock
yards, with a view to determining how
far the recent criticism of methods
employed in the killing of beef and
hogs is Justified. Mayor Dunne today,
after a conference with Health Com
missioner Whalen, decided to ask the
co-operation of the Federal Govern
ment, and the authorities will be asked
to name several members of the Com
mission. May . Demoralize l'lour Market.
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn., June 2. (Spe
cial.) Utter astonishment, followed by
a feeling of injured pride and resent
ment, about covers the state of mind
of the Minneapolis milling trade as a
result of the reported action of the
central relief committee of San Fran
cisco, which proposes to sell Minneapo
lis flour at $2.25 a barrel. H. B. Fair
child, of the Pillsbury-Washburn Com
pany, says:
' "It Is evident that the San Franoisco
committee, concerned only with the af
fairs of that city, "has given little
thought to its proposed action. It would
be demoralizing to the markets and
might not wear off for a long time."
Gannon Favors Wadsworth B11L
WASHINGTON. June 2. (Special.)
Speaker- Cannon today expressed him
self as. favoring the Lorlmer-Wadsworth
plan to amend the Beveridge
meat Inspection, blll-'so that the Gov
ernment will pay the expenses of the
Inspection. He also favors- the court re
view provision. The Speaker holds that
with the Government paying for the In
spection the cattleralser need not fear
a reduction In the price he receives for
his beeves to packers and the oonsumer
need not fear that he will have to pay
tne .bill.
Pacific Coast Packers Protest.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, June J. Protests have been re
ceived from the Union Meat Company of
Portland and -leading packers of Seattle
protesting against the Beveridge amend
ment to the agricultural appropriation
bill. They do not object to Federal in
spection of packing establishments, but
do object to having the cost of inspection
assessed against them.
Bheumatlo Fains Relieved.
No one need now suffer the agonizing
pains of sciatic and acute rheumatism, as
quick relief may be had by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This fact has
been clearly demonstrated in many thou

pain and makes sleep and rest possible,
which is alone worth many times Its cost.
B. F. Crocker, Esq., now 84 years of age.
and for 20 years Justice of the Peace, at

AGREED ON RATES
Conferees Present Their Bill to
Both Houses.
WILL BE LAW THIS WEEK
Senate Amendments Generally Ac
cepted Passes; Prohibited, Ex
press Business Covered, No
tice of Injunctions.
WASHINGTON, June 2. In practically
all essential details the conferees on the
railroad rate bill agreed to the measure
as it was -passed by the Senate. The
report was signed at about 4 P. M. and
almost immediately presented to both
bouses. It bhows that the Senate receded
from six . amendments, two of which
merely change the numbers of sections,
while 28 of its amendments were re
tained verbatim and the remaining 17
were redrafted and retained under differ
ent phraseology. ..
Senator Tillman, chairman of the Ben
ate conferees, gave notice that be will
urge prompt action In the Senate. It Is
safe to say the report will be acted upon
by the House with the utmost dispatch.
The disposition of the amendments in
the order in which they appear In the
bill follows:
Pipe Lines and Express.
The first amendment is that making
pipe lines common carriers. It was strick
en out and Included in the amendment
making express companies common car
riers, sleeping-car companies having been
eliminated, so that the amendment now
reads:
Th term "common carrier" as ned In
this aot shall Include express companies
and all persons or corporations engaged In
the transportation of oii by pipe lines -or
partly by pipe lines and partly by railroad
or partly by pipe lines and partly by water.
Passes Totally Forbidden.
The next amendment Is that prohibiting
passes. It was entirely redrafted, made
much more stringent, all excepted classes
being eliminated, and either to issue or
receive free transportation was made a
misdemeanor. The amendment is as
follows:
No carrier subject to the provisions of
this act shall after January 1, 1907, directly
or Indirectly Issue or give any interstate
free ticket, free pass or free transporta
tion for passage. Any carrier violating this
provision shalN-be deemed guilty of a mis
demeanor and shall upon conviction thereof
be punished by a fine not exceeding J 1000;
and any person who uses, solicits or ac
cepts for himself or for another any such
Interstate free ticket, free pass or free
transportation shall be deemed guilty of a
misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof
shall be subject to a like penalty.
No Exception for Loggers.
The Elklns commodity amendment was
retained practically in the form originally
agreed upon, and the provisions later in
serted eliminating timber and the manu
factured products thereof were stricken
out. As agreed to, the amendment pro
vides that after May J, 190S. it Bhall be
unlawful for any common carrier to trans
port any article or commodity manufac
tured, mined or produced by It or pro
duced under its authority, or which it
may own in whole or in part, or in which
it may have an interest direct or Indirect,
'except such articles or commodities as
may bo necessary and Intended for its
own use in the conduct of Its own busi
ness. .
Connect With All Lines.
The requirement that common carriers
shall, upon application of any shipper,
construct and operate switch connections
with private sidetracks was amended to
include the applications of lateral or
branch lines of railroads. This provision
was offered in the Senate, but not adopt
ed, and the statement was made today
that it would be objected to when the
conference report reaches the Senate.
The Senate receded from the "Jim
Crow" amendment, which declared that
equally good service and accommodations
shall be given to all persons paying the
same compensation for interstate trans
portation of passengers. The provision
was stricken out.
The several Senate amendments (20 in
number) relating to the publication of
schedules of rates and charges of all kinds
were agreed to and to the provision re
lating to Joint rates was added the follow
ing: If no Joint rate over the through rate has
been established the several carriers In such
through rates shall file, print and keep
open to publio Inspection the published and
established rates, fares and charges applied
to the through transportation.
' Penal Sections Retained.
The original penal sections of the inter
state commerce law, which were repealed
by the Elkins law and placed in the bill
by the Senate, were retained. The Senate
amendment, however, was amended by
striking out the words "knowingly and
willfully" In the provision relating to of
fering or accepting rebates, concessions
or discriminations. The conferees also
eliminated the proviso which declared
that the penalties should not apply to re
bates or considerations received prior to
the passage and approval of this aot.
All of the Senate amendments to sec
tion 4, which Is the rate-making section,
were retained. Among these are several
relating to the Allison compromise. The
most important lnoludes the striking out
of the words "in Its Judgment" and tha
words "and fairly remunerative."
The Senate provision was retained pro
viding that ' orders of the Commission
-shall take effect within ' such reasonable
time, not less than SO days, as shall be
prescriDea. in tne order of the Commis
sion. In the same section the Senate
amendment' was agreed to which provides
that jthroug'b. rates andoint' rates shall
apply hen one of the connecting car
riers is a water line.. The time in which
complaints for the recovery of damages
may be. 'filed with the Commission is. re
duced from two years to one.
' Give Notice of Injunctions.
The Benate receded from the McCumber
amendment, changing the word "regu
larly" to - "lawfully" in relation to serv
ice upon the carrier of notice of disobedi
ence of orders from the Commission.
The portions of the Allison amendment
covered by section 6 of the bill were all
retained. These provide that suits may
be brought In any of the Circuit Courts
"against the Commission"; apply the ex
pediting act to hearings on applications
for ; preliminary Injunctions; that no In
junction or interlocutory order or decree
suspending or restraining the enforce
ment of orders shall be granted except
on hearing after not less than five days'
notice to the Commission, and that ap
peals may be taken direct to the Su
preme Court of the United States.
The Senate amendment striking out the
provision that whenever an order of the
Commission shall have been complied
with for three years it shall no longer
be enforced was agreed to.
The initial liability relating to bills of
lading was retained, but so amended as
to place all carriers on an equality with
reference to their liability. Teh initial car
rier is made liable to the shipper, but
such Initial carrier is entitled to reoover
from tha carrier on whose Una the loss.
damage or injury shall have been sus
tained. The original provisions of the House
bill enlarging the Commission to seven
members with terms of seven years and
$10,000 annual compensation was restored,
and a provision added for a secretary at
$5000 and an assistant secretary at $4000.
This provision was offered in the Senate,
but voted down, and therefore Is new
legislation.
A piece of new legislation is found In
the last section where provision is made
that the bill shall take effect and be in
force 60 days from and after its passage
Instead of Immediately upon its passage
and approval.
Representative Hepburn, of Iowa, who
Introduced the bill, said after he had pre
sented the conference report to the House
today:
Hepburn Well Satisfied.
"I think the bill as a whole is excellent
and I have no doubt that It will bring re
lief with regard to all matters recom
mended in the message of the President."
Mr. Hepburn explained that the House
would not consider the report until after
the Senate had acted; that he expected
the Senate to take up the matter Mon
day, and that the House would follow
Tuesday or Wednesday.
' "Generally speaking," he said, "the
House conferees recommended that the
House recede from its disagreement to
the Senate amendments. This is not uni
versally the case and in a number ot in
stances where the House conferees have
recommended concurrence It has been
with an amendment."
PILES LOSES HIS FIGHT.
Amendment Allowing Lumber Com
. panles to Own Railroads Falls.
OREGONIAN NEWS - BUREAU,
Washington-, June 2. Senator Piles
made a strong effort today to save his
amendment to the rate bill permitting
lumber companies to own and operate
logging and spur lines of railroad, but
without avail, the amendment being
left out of the bill as agreed upon by
the conference this evening.
STAND PAT ON CANAL WORK
Senators Vote Down All Democratic
Amendments but One.
WASHINGTON. June 2. The greater
part of the day was spent by the Senate
In discussing the resolution directing the
purchase of the Panama Canal supplies
in America, unless the price was extor
tionate and unreasonable. Mallory's mo
tion to strike out the word "extortionate"
was lost, 89 to 19. Carmack sought to
limit the Government's action to a prefer
ence for goods of home manufacture, oth
er conditions being equal. It was lost, S9
to 17. Bacon wanted no .higher prices
paid for American goods than the Ameri
can manufacturer charged abroad for the
same article. This went down, 87- to 15.
Culberson wanted goods purchased in the
cheapest markets; lost. 38 to 18. An
amendment proposed by Pettus limiting
the purchase to the lowest responsible
Didder was adopted.
The bill was passed. 89 to 18.
Teller voted with the Republicans. On
the final vote, LaFollette voted aye, and
upon almost all the proposed amendments
he supported the Democratic position.
HATIDH5 MUST GO-OPERATE
SHOULD JOIN FORCES TO EXTERMI
NATE. BO.MBTHROWERS.
Andrew White, American Diplomat,
Suggvcts Esabllhnient of a '
Bureau of Anarchism.
CHICAGO, June 2. (Special.) Great
interest Is taken In the bureau of anarch
ism to run down the bombthrowers as
suggested by Andrew White, ex-Ambassa
dor to Russia and to Germany, ex-presl-dent
of Cornell University, prominent
promoter of the peace conference at The
Hague, and for many years one of Amer
ica's foremost diplomats. Mr. White be
lieves the world must have co-operation
if It Is to foil the murderus attacks of
these irresponsible creatures, whose work
Is becoming so common and who have
killed so many of the ablest men In the
United States and Europe.
Mr. White thinks the police departments
in America and Europe should be empow
ered by the nations to work together to
trace the bombthrowing anarchists to
their lairs and bring them, to speedy
Justice.
"Take our own country," said Mr.
White, "three of our own Presidents
have fallen by the hands of these men.
They were splendid, upright, able Presi
dents. There was no reason for their as
sassination. In Europe many good men
have been victims of the craze to kill
somebody. It appears to be Increasing
instead of decreasing. The recent affair
In Spain again calls our attention vividly
to the matter. If we are to believe re
ports, there are secret relations between
the anarchists of Europe and America.
To deal with the anarchists properly
there must be similar relations between
the police departments of America and
Europe.
I would not undertake to say Just how
these powers could be put to work, but
it would not be a difficult matter to ar
range. Every band of anarchists should
be kept under the closest watch, so that
all their moves back and forth across
the ocean would be known. The terrible
evil of anarchism will have to be put
down with an iron hand for society to
be safe. Not only should there be a
union of the nations in the matter, but
laws should be enacted for the swiftest
and severest punishment. The people
must be educated to consider the anarch
ist as the deadly enemy to society.
"I regard the case of the Chicago an
archists as the best-handled Instance on
record, all things considered. The pun
ishment meted out was not swift, but It
was unrelenting and Its effect has con
tinued to this day. The anarchists wera
awed and conquered. Another excellent
Instance was the way the assassin of
McKlnley was brought to Justice.
"I do not ' mean that I would condone
tyranny and oppression. Sometimes the
flaunting of wealth has tended to make
anarchistic sentiment, but in how many
Instances have great men been sacrificed
by the irresponsible anarchists who were
influenced by teachings that had no rea
son or Justice about them 7"
Candidates Fail to Qualify.
As the ten candidates who recently took
the civil service examination for the posi
tion of steam engineer in the city service,
failed to qualify, another examination
will be called within the next few weeks.
Vacancies exist at present, both In the
Fire and Water Departments, and there
are no applicants on the eligible list.
Will Speak at the Cathedral.
Right Rev. Andrew Morrissey, ex-president
of Notre Dame University, will de
liver a sermon this morning at 11 o'clock,
at the cathedral. Preceding the sermon
Archbishop Christie will celebrate pontifi
cal high mass. In the afternoon the arch
bishop will confirm a class of 40 children.

NOT ACT ON SMODT
Senate Has Much Talk to Un
load Upon Him.
WOULD PROLONG SESSION
Congress May Sit Till Late in July,
but Probably Few Speeches Will
Be Made, and Action
Then Deferred.
OREGONIAN NEW3 BUREAU, Wash
ington, June 2. Congress will either
remain in session until late In July,
In order that the Senate may dis
cuss and vote on the Smoot case, or else
this case will be shoved over until next
session. Senators Hale, Spooner and
Teller announced today that this case was
of the highest Importance and they would
not consent to have It railroaded through
without thorough discussion. Hale fur
ther announced that the Smoot case could
not be permitted to interfere with appro
priation bills or other privileged legisla
tion, and this remark Is believed to mean
that there will be no vote this session.
Smoot was the principal topic of discus
sion among Senators today, and it ap
pears to be the general opinion among
Democrats as well as Republicans that it
will require a two-thirds vote to unseat
him. It would be Impossible at this time
to get such a large vote against
him. The probable plan will be to report
the case next week, have a few speeches,
particularly by Burrows and Dubois, pre
sent a large amount of matter suitable
for the Dubois campaign in Idaho, and
then agree to postpone until next session.
If this is done, Dubois will have good
material for his campaign, and that is
what he Is after. He won't care what be
comes of Smoot next Winter.
TAKES NO ACTION ON SMOOT
Senate Refuses to Consider Matter
Without Official Report.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-The Senate to
day received the conference report on the
railroad-rate and statehood bills and
heard the announcement of the result of
the deliberations .of the committee on
privileges and elections on the case of
Smoot. In the case of Smoot, Burrows,
who made the statement as chairman of
the committee, asked that a day be fixed
for the consideration of the subject, but
objection was made because the official
report was not ready for consideration,
and on that account the further consid
eration of the subject was postponed.
There was no discussion of either the
statehood or the rate question.
The consideration of the Joint resolu
tion prescribing a policy in the purchase
of Panama Canal supplies consumed the
major part of the session and It closed
by the adoption of the resolution by prac
tically a party vote. The Democrats
sought in many forms, but in vain, to se
cure the adoption of an amendment that
would commit Congress against the pro
tective system. The amendment adopted
was suggested by Pettus, providing that
bids shall be from the lowest responsible
bidders.
After passing a large number of private
pension bills, the Benate adjourned until
Monday.
CANNON SQUELCHES MURPHY
Rules Against Resolution Rescinding
Action on Statehood Bill.
WASHINGTON, June 2. What might
have been a serious parliamentary snarl
was 'dexterously avoided by Speaker Can
non late this afternoon in the House of
Representatives, when Murphy of Missou
ri rose to present what he denominated
a privileged resolution. The conference
reports on the rate and the statehood
bills bad been made and ordered printed,
when the Missouri Congressman present
ed a resolution rescinding the action of
the House sending the statehood bill to
conference and providing for a vote on
the Senate amendments.
Payne of New York, leader of the ma
jority. Instantly made the point that the
resolution was not privileged. The Speak
er, with .smiling face, held that the reso
lution was not privileged, as the papers
in the case were with the Senate and ha
hfld serious doubt if the resolution would

Confusion ensued, Murphy and a num

to take exception to the ruling. Above
the din Murphy was heard to say:
"Let's have a square deal, Mr. Speaker.
I appeal from the decision of the chair."
But the Speaker was oblivious to the mo
tion for an appeal, and adjourned the
House at 6:30 until noon on Monday, on
motion of Bonynge, of Colorado, leaving
Murphy gesticulating on the floor.
The House spent the day considering
the naturalization bill, but did not com
plete it.
OPENS SHOSHOXB RESERVE
President Orders Registration for
Land Rush In Wyoming.
WASHINGTON, June 2. The Presi
dent has tssued a proclamation opening

May Adjourn About July 4.
WASHINGTON, June 2. (Special.)
Members of Congress who visited the
White House today predicted that final
adjournment -would not be had until the
Fourth of July. Among those most em
phatic on this subject were Representa
Little Journeys
To the Homes of
Great Restorers
We have all been charmed with the
sincerity of the woman who called to her
neighbor, "How are ye? Not that I care
a hang, but Just to make a little con
versation." There is one sort of communication
that does not belong to the conven
tional, forced type. It is the call of
the wild, the prayer of the sufferer, the
letter of the sick to the trusted phy
sician. If one is HI enough to admit It, he or
she wants direct, personal. Immediate
help, not vague, experimental, general
dosing. Coffin varnish proved to be
the last remedy In the world for Mr.
Peck's rheumatism, and it Is only one
of a thousand cases on record where
they had to guess again. There is
indiscriminate taking, as well as indis
criminate giving, and the weak and
helpless are the victims. Two-thirds of
the graft of the world Is being looted
from the sick.
This little Journey is to the home
office of a physician who has broken
the world's record for the number of
patients examined and treated. Is this
doctor with thousands of patients, with
a mall large enough to require a special
mall service, giving the world a square
deal? Is he giving each case Individual
attention? Is he able to give the suf
ferer who has placed his life in his
hands the latest and most Improved
treatment that science offers? Does he
hold the record for the number of cases
actually cured?
This is a big sclentlfio question and It
should be approached with the true
scientific spirit of faithful Inquiry, free
from cant.
Dr. R. V. Pleroe, bead of the famous
World's Dispensary Medical Associa
tion at Buffalo, would tell you that he
does not attempt the superhuman feat ot
reading the hundreds of letters that are
sent to blm day In and day out, year af
ter year. Marshall Field, tha great Chi
cago merchant, would make clumsy work
of personally taking care of all his mall
orders. In great concerns the work is
systematized, with each detail In the
bands of an expert. When Samantha
Allen went to the New Tork stores she
Insisted upon buying of the proprietor,
but Mr. A. T. Stewart happened to be
out. Dr. Pierce has built up a great
scientific bureau of medical experts,
and when you send or go to him for
advice you get the prompt, direct, per
sonal help your case demands. If you
have locomotor ataxia you are not set
upon by an Important personage who
has specialized on the ear in some for
eign hospital. You get an expert upon
your special trouble. If you apply for
help In a letter this letter Is carefully
studied and immediately submitted to
the physician who has devoted hla life
to fighting your particular trouble. If
you come yourself you are put in
charge of a doctor who has specialized
for years upon the disease that threat
ens you. Which is the scientific way
to go to one doctor and demand almost
omnipotent knowledge, or to depend
upon a carefully organized bureau of
experts7
Which is likely to be of the greatest
belp in time of trouble, one lone doctor
passing upon 20 diseases, or 20 doctors
ready to give their best advice upon one
case 7
It Is the day of the specialist, and
the World's Dispensary Medical Asso
ciation, with Its staff of eminent physi
cians, with its dispensary and splen
didly equipped hospital, with its world
famous medicines and its honor and
care in dealing wth the public, has
fairly won the largest- patronage that
J medical history records.
Thus endeth this little Journey, to a
great Hf-eaving station. The cures are

When the clothes-man says ".Oh I I can
shrink up that Fullness in a minute," or -1
can strtUh cut that Tightness in a jiffy," it
is the same old makeshift that is constantly
substituted for sincere tailoring in 8o per
cent of all clothes.
The next time this happens to ytm, just
have the defective place opened np and
revised by hand-needlework.
The trouble with Fiat-Iron " dope is Its
temporary nature. It is merely a Stimulant.
A little wtar or dampness takes it all out,
and leaves the garment with all its original
Defects, so neatly masked by "Old Dr.
Goose " for the time being.
Thelabelof the SINCERITY CLOTHES
Makers in any garment, is a substantial Proof

and Revised, where necessary, by shears and
needle.
