towers Cross Fire of Criticisms.
Vote Stands 216 to 4
on Adoption.
TVASHIXGTON, June 23. The House to
day, by a vote of 21S to 4, adopted the
conference report on the rate bill. Mr.
Hepburn, of Iowa, chairman of the Inter
state and foreign commerce committee of
the House, and chairman of the conferees
on the bill, called up the conference re
port immediately after the passage of the
pure-food bill. He asked that the report
be considered at once. Instead of going
over for printing until Monday.
Explaining the sleeping-car and anti
pass amendments, he stated that the
sleeping-car provision remains in the bill,
while the anti-pass amendments have
been modified so as to apply only to the
Federal, state and territorial officers, of
ficials of the Postofllee Department in
certain particulars being exempt.
Mr. Keifer wanted to know what effect
the anti-pass law would have on a mem
ber of Congress who happened to be an
attorney of a railroad.
Would Be Forced to Keslgn.
"I imagine he would have to leave Con
gress," replied Mr. Hepburn.
Mr. Henry of Texas asked If under the
anti-pass amendment passes might be Is
sued to delegates to conventions to ship
pers, to railroads ofllciuls, their families,
etc.
"I so understand lt.'l said Mr. Hepburn.
"Then I think the anti-pass amendment
as reported by the conferees is worse
than nothing at all," said Mr. Henry.
Mr. Hepburn explained that it was the
purpose of the conferees to remedy what
has been alleged to be the great evil of
the passes the influence It had upon
those who represent the people. Mr. Hep
burn was then asked about the pipe-line
provision and explained that the conferees
had substituted "common carrier" for
"railway. '
Wisconsin Man Is Anxious.
Mr. Cooper, of Wisconsin, wanted to
know If passes could be Issued until Jan
uary 1, 11W7, to Congressmen, and during
the approaching campaign.
Mr. Hepburn admitted that that la the
case.
"But It doesn't follow you will get them
if you work for them after this session,"
remarked a member.
Mr. Wllliama thought the pass amend
ment should be amended so that the fami
lies f'Senators and Representatives, and
in fact all persons affected by the amend
ment, be prohibted from soliciting passes
for anybody. He protested against the
manner In which the eonferen' report
was being railroaded through. H asked
unanimous consent Tor an - agreement
along the lines of his suggestion.
The Speaker held that the Senators had
something-to ay in the matter; that the
conference report represents the efforts of
conferees of both house, 'and that the
only way to accomplish the purpose
sought wa to vote to din-agree.
Tim ruling of the chair was like a wet
blanket to Williams. Hepburn then
mnved-the previous question, which was
adopted,. 121 to 97.

FOKAKER BUEAKS OUT AGAIN"
Denounces Rate Bill and Says El
kins Act Is Sufficient,
WASHINGTON. June 23. Long today
introduced in the Senate a resolu
tion calling on the Attorney-General for
a statement of all suit brought under
the Sherman anti-trust law and the In
terstate commerce law, together with the
facts as to their disposition. ' Foraker
moved to amend by calling for the ex
tension of the statement so as to make it
cover suits brought under the Klkins law.
In support of. his amendment, Foraker
said he. was satisfied that the statement
would show that the Klkins law covers
" every evil of which any .human being
lias made complaint since the railroad
discussion began." He cited a number of
decisions Vinder the law, including that
handed down by the Federal Court at
Kansas City yesterday. . . a ,
Bailey said that .so far. as . he
had been able to determine, . some of the
parties to the combination alleged had
been convicted, while others had not been.
He could not understand how one party
to a conspiracy could he considered guilty
and others not, but said:
"If the courts will follow this Verdict
by putting in prison every man r.ho has
violated the law. they will hive dont
much to vindicate the law." "
'Yes. indeed." responded roraker, "aYv
that Is what I have' been contending for
the past Ave or six months."
He declared that, if enforced, the Elklns
act would prove a remedy for all rebates
and discriminations. He called attention
to the fact that complaints are- to be
filed under the law. ' and ' said the Inter
state Commerce Commission was now
doing the best work it has ever done In
taking off the lid, and . closed wiui. me
declaration that 'the failure of the con
ference on the railroad rate tlll would be
the most fortunate thing that could hap
pen for the country, because a "more
unnecessary or more mlechlef-maktng law
was never put on the statute book."
After Bacon had presented an amend
ment asking for detaila as to the
expenditure of IMO.000 . especially appro
priated for the prosecution of cases
against the laws mentioned, the resolu
tion was laid aside in order to permit
the Senate to proceed with other busi
ness. CUL.L.OM IMIKSKXTS KEPOKT.

WASHINGTON, June 23. Shortly

rate bill, adding his name to that of

Hepburn, Sherman and Ricnardson.
Senator Tillman did not sign the- re
port, and It wag turned over to Rep

House. It is expected the refusal of
Senator Tillman n subscribe ' to the
agreement in regard t the McLaurin
commodity amendment, ' which would
permit pipe lines to . carry commodi
ties they produce, will result in debate
In the Senate when the report is pre

Senator Tillman, in refusing to sign

will yield to the House conferees.

charge of accepting rebates from rail

Thomas, the New York, freight broker,
who with his chief' clerk. L.. B. Taggart,
in the Federal Court here yesterday was
fined and given a penitentiary sentence.
Judge O. M. Spencer, general solici
tor for the Burlington, said today of
the statement l'Tedited" -yesterday to Attorney-General
Moody at Washington in
discussing the Kansas City convictions:
"If the statement of the Attorney-General
is) true, it will be very embarrassing
to try future cases of this kind in Mis
souri and have the judgment rendered by
the Attorney-General. I refer particular
ly to the Attorney-General's statement
that "after giving it careful consideration,
I concluded that the extent of the dis
criminations practiced showed that it was
a caae where the sentence of imufison
ment was especially desirable, and I di
rected the District Attorney to urge on
the court, in ease of their conviction, the
desirability of such a sentence.' "
Mr. Thomas and Mr. Taggart left today
for their homes in New York.

Tillman Brings Up Mrs. Morris
Incident in Senate.
ASKS AN INVESTIGATION
Action Follows Confirmation of As
sistant Secretary Barnes as
Washington Postmaster.
Scandal Rehashed.
WASHINGTON, June 23. Benjamin P.
Barnes, assistant secretary to the Presi
dent, was today confirmed by the Senate
in executive Session as Postmaster at
Washington. The vote was 85 to 16. By
a reverse vote a resolution was defeated
providing for- an investigation of the
Mrs. Minor Morris incident In March,
when by order of Mr. Barnes the woman
was ejected from the White House offices.
The nomination had been pending since
Aprjl 2.
The procedure in the Senate was dra
matic. Senator Tillman went over the
testimony which the committee on post
offices and postroads declined to receive
when It refused to enter upon an In
vestigation of the Mrs. Morris affair. He
had read the statements of eyewitnesses,
when he drew from under "his desk a
black silk skirt wrapped in a newspaper.
Skirt Torn and luddy. .
This was the skirt'worn by Mrs. Mor
ris when she was carried, or "dragged,"
as she claimed, from the White House.
It was torn and muddy, showing the im
prints of shoes. It was charged by Mr.
Tillman that the lower part of the wo
man's" body had been trampled on by
the police officers and the White House
attendants. Including a negro, who had
assisted In taking her to a carriage.
No effort was made by any Senator
to defend the action, of the police. Sena
tor Carter said that if there had been
any assault upon the woman the police
alone were to blame. He said that Mr.
Barnes could not be held responsible, as
the ill treatment, if any, had occurred
outside of the offices.
Waves Rags Again Tuesday.
Senator Tillman gave notice that on
Tuesday he would repeat his remarks in
the open Senate and exhibit the torn
clothing of Mrs. Morris. He will find the
occasion for thu? In moving for a vote
on his resolution asking for an Investi
gation of the police force.
Senator Tillman said that it was a pe
culiar coincidence that the only eyewit
nesses who defended the incident were

Champions of Straight Whisky.
The Representatives . of the Southern
States treated the House to an Instruc
tive and exhaustive debate on whisky,
but the friends of the "straight"- article
were routed by the friends) of the recti
fied by a vote of 3 to 7f on an amend
ment by Richardson, of Alabama, In be
half of tho makers of "straight" whisky.
In the course of his remarks Richard
son maintained that there , were 105,000,000
gallons of imitation whisky against a lit
tle more than 2,000.000 gallons of the pure
article consumed In the United States
last year. He declared that the rectifier,
by adding to a thimbleful of eight-year-old
whisky chemicals, oils, flavoring, bead
and aging, produced an alleged eight-year-old
brand, which went to the con
sumer as such. He wanted this brand
of whisky marked "blended" and the sub
stances stated. .
Sherley, of Kentucky, In behalf of the
rectifiers, explained the contention of the
two whisky companies, the distiller and
the -rectifiers. '",
Sherley's remarks brought Stanley, of
MVESMDDDYSKR
Kentucky, into the debate. He took a
bottle from the table, poured the con
tents into a graduate and said:
Here is a Quart of alcohol, one ;hundred
proof strong. It will eat the Intestines out
of a coyote. It will make a howling dervish
out of an. anchorite. It will make a rabbit
spit In a bulldog's face. It Is pur alcohol,
and under the skill of the rectifier, he will
put in a little coloring matter and then a
little bead oil; (illustrating) I drop that
In It. Then I get a little essence of Bour
bon whisky, and there is no connoisseur in
this House who can tell that hellish busi
ness from the genuine article, and that is
what I denounce. I say that the coloring
matter is not harmful. I say that the cara
mels are not harmful, but I say that the
body stock of th whisky I mad is rank
alcohol and, when it gets into a man It is
pur aell. (Applause.)
The vote was then taken on the amend
ment of Richardson and it was defeated.

minion government, leaving those under
provincial charters subject to provincial
laws. Many street railways, however,
now operate on Sunday under a special
act, and these are not affected. An amend
ment will be offered on Monday exempt
ing from the provision of the measure
street railways in cjtles and towns where
no provincial Sunday legislation applies.
As it stands at present, the only ex

for those whose Hues are interprovlnclal

It is declared that, if the bill becomes
law as it now stands, many electric car
companies in the Dominion will be forced
to go out of business. For instance. It
Is1 stated that officials of the new Wind
sor, Essex & Lake Shore Radial Railway
admit thaf they must run their cars on
Sunday to make the Investment pay, and
it is pointed out that the road would
never have been built had such a restric
tion as that proposed by the Lord's day
bill been expected.
- In addition to the restriction on elec
tric lines and other street railways, the
large railroad companies will find numer

prohibitions! contained In the law.
Jews and Adventists Excepted.
When the bill was fire read ft also pro
voked the most emphatic .protests from
religious bodies and persons who do not
observe Sunday as their Sabbath, such
as Jews, Adventists and others This pro
test resulted in an amendment to the bill
whereby persons who observe Saturday as
their Sabbath are allowed to perform work
on Sunday under certain restrictions.
This amendment has now aroused further
protests, "this time from orthodox Chris

favor of Jews and others and who de

WORDS OF PRAISE
BY A 'WEJLt, KTSOWN ARTICLE.
So mnch has been written by the
standard medicial authorities, of all the
several schools of practice, in praise
of the native, aT American, medicinal
plants which enter into the composi
tion of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, that in attempting to quote
from the various works on Materia
Medica one hardly knows where to
commence, since they are to volumin
ous that only the briefest and most im
perfect reference can be presented in a
short article like this.
Briefly then let us . say that the
"Golden Medical .Discovery" was
named from the sturdy little plant
Golden Seal, the root of which enters
largely' into its composition. Besides
this most valuable ingredient, it con
tains glyceric extracts of Stone root,
. Queen b root, Black Cherrybark, Blood
root and Mandrake root.
Finley Ellingwood, M. D., an emin
ent practitioner of Chicago and Profes
sor of Materia Medica in the Bennett
Medical College of that citv, in his
recently published work on therapeu
tics, says of Golden Seal root: "It is
the most natural of stimulants to the
normal functions of digestion. Its in
fluence upon the mucous surfaces ren
ders it most important in catarrhal
gastritis (inflammation of stomach) and
gastric (stomach) ulceration."
Many other authorities as well as Dr.
Ellingwood extol the Hydrastis (Golden
Seal), as a remedy for catarrhal dis
eases of the nasal passages, stomach,
bronchia, gall ducts, kidneys, intestines
and bladder. Among these, we may
mention Prof. John King, M. O., author
of the American Dispensatory; Prof.
J. M. Scudder, M. D.. in his Specific
Medication" ; Dr. Hale of the Hahne
mann Med. College of Chicago; Grover
Coe, M. D., of New York, in his "Or
ganic Medicines," Dr. Bartholow of Jef
ferson Med. College and scores of other
leading medical writers "and teachers.
1 All the foregoing eminent authorities
extol the curative virtues of Golden
Seal in cases of stomach, liver and in
testinal weakness, torpor and ulceration
jof bowels. Dr. Ellingwood recommends
lit most highly, " In those cases c atonic
,dyspepsia when the entire apparatus,
including the liver, is etagnapt and
inoperative." He also extols it most
highly in the many weaknesses and de
rangements peculiar to women and
'says, "It is a most important remedy in
many disorders of the womb.". Golden
Seal root (Hydrastis), is an important
ingredient of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription for weak, nervous, "rundown"
women.
But to return to the "Golden Medical
Discovery " it may be said that its cur
ative properties are not wholly depend
ent upon Golden Seal, valuable as it is.
as other equally potant ingredients add
greatly to its value and in fact are not
less important than the Hydrastis, or
Golden Seal.
ln all bronchial, throat, lung and
kindred ailments, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark, Queen's root and Blood
root, each plays as important a part
in effecting the phenominal cures of
"Golden Medical Discovery" as does
Golden Seal. AH these ingredients
have the endorsement of prominent
practitioners of all schools of medicine
lor the cure of diseases of the bronchia,
throat and lungs. -

WELL MERITED
Of Queen's root, Prof.- King says: -"An
alterative (blood purifier) unsur-'
passed by few if any other of the known
alteratives. Most successful in skin
and scrofulous affections; beneficial in
bronchial affections; permanently cures
bronchitis; relieves irritations; an im
portant cough remedy; coughs of years'
standing being cured; aids in blood
making and nutrition and mav be taken
with out harm for long periods."
Queen's root, Golden Seal root, Stone
root, Black Cherrybark and Bloodroot,
all articles extolled by leading practi
tioners of all the schools, as the very
be6t of cough medicines, are made es
pecially valuable when combined with
chemically pure glycerine which greatly
enhances "the curative action of all these
ingredients in all bronchial, throat and
lung affections, Bevere coughs and kin
dred ailments.
Who can doubt the efficacy of such a
compound, when scientifically made
np, as in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery? Who can doubt that it is a
most effective remedy for the several
diseases for which its ingredienta are so
highly recommended by the formost
writers on Materia MedicaT
It is in the cure oC the more chronic
or lingering, persistent, and obstinate
eases of bronchial, laryngial and lung
affections, attended by hoarseness and
sever cough, which- if neglected or
badly treated would generally have ran
into consumption, that "Golden Med
ical Discovery" has wen the highest
praise from all who have observed its
marvelous Control over these and kin
dred affections. It is no cheap com
pound made-up of trasby ingredients
for free distribution, that curious peo
ple may experiment upon themselves
as with the many fake nostrums so
commonly sent out as "trial bottles."
It has a forty year record, embracing
many thousands of cures behind it, is
sold at a reasonable price and may be
found in all drug and medicine stores
in this and many foreign countries.
It will be seen from the above brief
extracts how well "Golden Medical Dis
covery " is adapted for the cure of all
blood diseases, as, scrofulous and skin
affections, eruptions, blotches, pimples
and kindred ailments; also that it is
equally good in all Catarrhal affections
no matter where seated, and for all
cases of indigestion, or dyspepsia, tor
pid liver, or biliousness and as a
tonic and invigorator in all manner of
weaknesses, and in nervous debility
and prostration the above extracts
amply show.

properties and uses of "Golden Medical
Discovery " and Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription for weak women, will b
