WASHINGTON LETTER. Flom our regular correspondent. Washington, March 29, 1895. If Mr. Cleveland was hunting for something; to do to further offend the eilver democrats he certainly found it when he decided that he would not carry out tne vvoicott amendment, providing for the appointment of three commis sioners by the president to act with those named by congress as lepresentatives of the United States at any international monetary conference in which this gov ernment might be invited to participate. First the friends of Mr. Cleveland gave it out that hia reason for refusing to ap point the commissioners was that it was specifically stated in the act authorizing their appointment that they were only to take part in a conference called to consider- an international ratio and the free coinage of silver, and that no such conference was contemplated by Ger many, but later the excuse was amended by saying that Mr. Cleveland had private information to the effect that Germany would not invite the holding of the con ference, anyway. It is a fact very well known in Washington that Mr. Cleve land has resented from the first the action of congress in naming two-thirds of the commission; thus putting it out of bis power to make a majority of it nnti silver ; therefore nobody ' was much sur- Txnaasf at. Hia rafnaal tn pntnnlofA if. Tf he really Knew that no conference would be held he would have appointed the commissioners and not have shown his hand. It is contended by some that if a conference is held the six commissioners named by congress can participate re' gardless of Mr. Cleveland's wishes, as $100,000 was appropriated by congress to pay their expenses, but that is doubtful xi an invitation to lane pari in a mone tary conference is extended to the United States by Germany or any other foreign country it is fair to assume that a com mission signed by the president would be the only credentials which would be recoguized. It is the general impression here that Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiian minister, scored at Secretary Gresham's expense when he announced, in advance of any information from his government, bis immediate departure for Hawaii. Those who are familiar with the Hawaiian gov' ernment appear to think it probable that Mr. Thurston and Mr. Hatch, the present Hawaiian minister of foreign affaire, may exchange places. If they do Mr. Thurston would not be human if he did not take advantage of the oppor tunities that would surely come to him to worry Secretary Gresham. His first ,-etep in that direction would most likely be to ask for the recall of Minister "Willis. Ex -Gov. Campbell, of Ohio, who has ' been classed as a Cleveland man, and -who was certainly ' a Cleveland man at the Chicago convention of '92, seems to have joined hands with the anti's. . He waB in Washington this week hobnob bing with Senators Gorman, Brice and -other anti-Cleveland men, and it is said that these men are laying wires to make Mr. Cleveland's hope of again becoming the candidate of the democrats ditsolve into one of ex-Senator Ingalls' "irides cent dreams." There has probably never before been as many changes announced or fore' shadowed in the short space of a single week in the diplomatic corps at Wash ington. Without counting the retire ment of Minister Thurston there are the following changes: The Spanish min aster, who has been notified of the ap pointment of hia successor; the German a...k..DA.w1A. 1. 1 . I information; ditto the Argentine min ister and the Brazilian minister has been notified of his appointment to the bench of the supreme court of Brazil, which of coarse means a new Brazilian minister here. The application of Debs for a writ of habeas corpus was this week argued be fore the U. S. Supreme court. Attorney General Olney taking the negative and Air. U. a. uarrow, oi-Chicago, the af firmative. No decision is expected for at least a month, owing to the number of important cases upon which area ments have been made but no decisions handed down. Somehow the idea seems to be general that the application of Debs will be denied. Nothing new has this week been made public concerning the various diplomatic muddles, but there has been a com munication received from Spain, nd it is said in administration circles to have ben satisfactory as far as it went, but from what can be learned it did not go ' very far. The cabinet is said to be dl vided on the question of making the eagle do a little screaming at England on behalf of Nicaragua and Venezuela and incidentally of the democratic party and the screaming has not been done, although there is reason enough for it to be done. v Cab.

"Perhaps you would not think so, but a very large proportion of the diseases in New York comes from carleesnes about catching cold, "says Dr. Cyrus Ed- son. "It is such a simple thing and so common that' very few people, unless it is a case of pneumonia," pay any atten tion to the cold. New York is one of the healthiest places on the Atlantic Coast and yet there are a great many cases of catarrh and consumption which have their origin in this neglect of the implest precaution of every day fife. The most sensible advice is, when you have one get rid of it as soon as possible. By all means do not neglect it." Dr. Ed son does not tell you how to cure a cold but we will. It will relieve the lungs, aid expectoration, open the secretions and soon effect a permanent cure. 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakely & Hough ton, druggists.
