REPORTED TO SENATE
Tariff Bill Gets Past the fi
nance Committee.
JONES VOTED WITH REPUBLICANS
Itetronotivo Cluuso and Hawaiian
Keclproclty Stricken Out Numer
ous Change In Schedules.
Washington, Muy 4. The vote in the
senate finance committee today to re
Port the tariff bill was a surprise. The
vote stood 6 to 5. Jones of Nevada vot
ed with the Republicans to report. All
tlie Democrats voted no.
Washington, May 4. Senator Aid
rich presented the tariff bill to the sen
ate today and gave notice that it would
be called up Tuesday, the 18th inst.
The time ior the bill to take effect is
made July 1, instead of May 1, as pro
vided by the house, and the words of the
first paragraph, "or withdrawn for con
sumption" are stricken out. The re
troactive clause of the Dingley bill is
thus stricken from tho senate bill.
The entire house provision relating to
reciprocity is stricken out and sections
substituted providing that whenever a
country shall pay a bounty upon the ex
portation of any article, of merchandise
flnd dutiable under this act greater than
tbe duty upon the importation of any
such article into the Uulted States, there
shall bo levied upon it, in addition to
the duty imposed by this act, a duty
e(iul to the not amount of such bounty
to be ascertained by the secretary of the
treasury.
The house provision keeping in force
the Hawlian reciprocity treaty is strick
en out, the effect being indirectly to
"brogato tho treaty and impose the same
duty on Hawaiian sugars as on sugars j
from other countries. j
MANY OUIIANS AltE STARVING.
Concentradue Dying by tho Hundreds
in Fortined Towns.
Chicago, May A special to flie ;
Tribune from Washington says official i
reports of the most serious character I
have recently come to the state depart-
ment regarding the starvation and '
misery in Cuba, and Secretary Sherman
has issued special instructions to all the j
consular officers in Cuba requesting de-
tailed reports as to the situation in their
districts. ;
In the course of a long confidential re-1
port from Matanzap, United States Con-!
sul Alexander C. Bryce said :
"Over 7000 persons have been concen- J
trated at this place, three-quarters of
whom are entirely without means of
support. Women and children are dying
on the streetB from starvation. Death
and misery walk hand in hand. Among
these people there are several Americans.
Yellow fever, smallpor and other dis
eases are prevalent. All is the result of
General Wevler's inhuman policy. Aid
for these sufferers should come from the
United States."
Other reports of a similar chaiacter
have been received from the regularly
accredited agents of the United States,
and have been placed before President
McKinley.

Pharealos says :

A Battle In I'rogre".
London, May 4, A dispatch from Ar
ta this afternoon soya a force of 0000
Grotks, commanded by Colonel Barac-
tharis, while andvancing on Pentepigadia
was engaged by the Turks. A battle is
now in progress.
The Attack ou VeleHtluo,
Athens, May 4. Following is the first
story from a correspondent with the
Turks, fighting near Velestino between
the forces of Turkey and Greece.
Turkish position before Velestino,
Thessaly, Friday, April 30. (Delayed in
transmiission Fighting has been In
progress here since 5 o'clock this morn
ing. The mountains form a semi-circle,
of which Velestino is the center. The
Greeks occupy a strong position ou the
hills in two wings. The Tnrkscommene
ed the attack under a sustained artillery
fire. The Greeks responded feffbly.
Our troops gradually gained ground, a
battery planted on our right, where the
ground was not so steep, coyeiing the
advance.
Although the Turks were met with a
furious fusillade, they pushed forward,
and gain summit after summit, and at
tho preeent moment are occupying
rong positions while waiting the com
ing of the rest of the troops. Our left
had a difficult task. The Greeks were
holding a precipitous mountain, hut tho
Turks, feigning an attack on the front,
turned the Greek position and forced
the enemy to retire to the second lino of
defense, which lie is now holding.
Our center remains quietly before ono
of the enemy's earthworks, while the
Greek battery is commencing u due)
with u battery planted on our right wing.
The heat is intense, and constant sup
plies of water have to bo sent to tho
troops engaged.
The Kent lteuiedy for JtheuiuutUiii.
From tliu Falrhavun (N. Y.) Keglster.
Mr. James Rowland of this village,
state that for twenty-five years his wife
has been a sufferer from rheumatism.
A few nights ago she was in such paiu
that she was nearly crazy. She sent
Mr. Rowland for the doctor, but he had
read of Chamberlain's Pain Bairn and
instead of going for the doctor he went
to the store and secured a bottle of it.
His wife did not approve of Mr. Row
land's purchase at first, but neverthe
less applied the Balm thoroughly and in
an hour's time was able to go to sleep,
She now applies it whenever she feels an
ache or a pain and finds that it always
gives relief. He says that no medicine
which she had used ever did Iter as much
good. Tho 25 and 50 cent sizes for eale

The Shakers have made a great hit.
Their Digostivu Cordial is said to bo the
most successful remedy for stomach
troubles over introduced. It immedi
ately rolioves all paiu and distress after
eating, builds up tho feeble system and
makes tho weak strong.
Tho fact is.oods properly digested aro
better than so-called tonics. Tho Cor
dial not only contains food already dl
gee ted, but is a digester of other foods
Food that is not digested does more
harm than good. People who use the
Cordial insure the digestion of what
food they oat and in this way got tho
benefit of it and grow strong.
The little pamphlets which tho Shak
ers have sent druggists for free dlstri
button , contain much interesting iufor
ination on the subject of dyspepsia. 17
Laxol is the best medicine for chll
dreu. Doctors recommend it in place of
Castor Oil.

following in regurdto un old resident of
