C'J (1 H?G?, VOL. X THE DALLES, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1897 NO 267 AT WORK ON BIG GUNS New Armaments Wanted in a Ilnrry. RUSH ORDERS HAVE BEES ISSUED Two Factories in Pennsylvania are Be ing uperated Night and Day la Consequence. Philadelphia, Nov. 16. For more than two months people living in Tiot a and Nicetown have coalmen ted on the fact that the Midvale steel works had not shut down even for Sunday, and the jarring noise of the big machinery has penetrated at midnight or the . early hoars of the morning the same as during the day. Sickness has beon the only plea that would permit any of the em ployes to enjoy a days rest, and three relays of men have beeen alternately kept at a high tension. All this excitement, it leaked oat to day, is due to a harried order from the government for an increase of arma ment. The order placed with the Midvale steel works is for 50 10-inch disappear ing guns and 10 12 inch mortars. The eooernment inspection is in the hands of Captain T. A. Lisle of the army. He ia out of the city, and the manager of the Midvale company de clined to talk regarding the big contract made with the government. An open gate of the main building in the Midvale discloses to view three' un finished castings of the 10-inch pattern. To one sideof the furnaces upon tempo rary wooden mountings were two weap ons apparently ready for being trans ported, There is enough work on the unfin ished contracts to keep the entire force at both places busy for several months yet. THE DAUNTLESS AGAIN BOARDED The Irrepressible Filibuster Bobs Dp at Key West. New Yobk,- Nov. 16. A Special to the Tribune from Washington says: The filibustering steamer Dauntless is again causing serious concern to naval authorities. A telegram to the navy department from Key West, where the cruiser Montgomery and the gunboat Anapolis are supposed to be on the watch, announces the sudden arrival of the Dauntless at that point, although on Saturday the commanding officers of the Vesuvius, who was .watching her at Jacksonville, reported her in dock there, being repainted and generally placed in condition for another expedition. , He thought she would be ready in an; other week, and wondered what steps be would take to prevent her departure if she had men and arms on board, and . t he department had scarcely informed him he mu9t follow her to sea and make every effort to prevent her reaching Cuba, when the word came that she had slipped into Key West, violating the quarantine regulations by leaving Jack sonville without notice, and completely disconcerting the naval officers who are afraid she will get away from her prea- ent berth as readily as from her last without anyone being the wiser. If she has men and ammunition, the Dauntless is in a fine way to reach Cuba We have used your Happy Thought Salve with excellent results. Our little girl, 4 yrs old, had sore ears for nearly a year from the effects of a se vere case of chicken pox. Af ter using the salve for a short time, her ears were complete ly healed.

The only sure method to prevent ber reaching Cuba, in the opinion of the naval officers here, is to destroy her. WOT THE SILVKK BNVOYS FAILED England Alone Blasted the Hopes of Washington, Nov, 16. The official reports of the correspondence in regard to the bimetalic proposals of the United States monetary commission to the gov ernment Jof Great Britain has reached this country. It fully confirms the re port cabled to the American Press Octo ber 21tt and 22 J. Tbe negotiations fell through, notwithstanding tbe expressed willingness of the French government to open their mints, owing to the re jection by the British governmentof the proposition to again open the Indian mints to the free coinage of silve. None of the other propositions were replied to, because one of the most im portant concessions requested of Great Britain could not be conceded, - Great Britain, in making answer, re ferred to the wishes of the government of India, to which the proposal was re ferred, and the reply of the latter gov ernment therefore is the most important communication in the correspondence. The most potent reasons urged against the proposition is that the burden of failure, if failure should come from tbe experiment for re-establishment of bi metalism by. France and the United States, must inevitably fall on India Both the United Slates and France, the reply argues, with their .gold, could to a greater or less extent protect themselves if the experiment did not prove to be a success. The document contains a reservation which would seem to indicate tnat if the scope of the proposed experiment was sufficiently broadened India might be willing at least to reconsider the propo sition. Electric Bitters. Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps, more gener ally needed when the languid, exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and and alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. . No medi cine will act more surety counteracting and freeing the . system from : be malar ial poison.

Heavy enow has been falling all oyer the north-western part of the state for 24 hoars, and the storm has assumed the proportions of a blizzard. Some snow has fallen in the eastern part of the state and at Omaha. The storm attained its greatest violence in the north-western part of Nebraska, extending into Wyoming and Montana. The mercury is hovering around zero all over Nebraska. ' ( I have' a Stray horse, a roan, 9 years old, branded with a figure 2 on tbe right hip, at my. place on. three mile.

Canadians Will Mot Discuss tne Sealing Matter Alone. . Washington, Nov. 16. The Canadi ans have determined today to meet the propositions for the immediate suspen sion of pelagic sealing with a counter proposition for the establishment of a committee to arrange a' general settle ment not only of tbe sealing question, but the reciprocity, border immigration, North Atlantic fisheries, and all pend ing questions between tbe United States and Canada. - It was .stated that the proposition would te submitted when diplomatic phases of the subject were taken up today. . . The contention ot the American rep sentatives is that the Behring Sea mat ter is tbe first question to be disposed of. The Canadians are equally insistent that they will not surrender on the sealing question without at the same time se curing action on all the other subjects which are to them of quite as much im portance as the sealing question. Their suggestion of a commission, therefore, will contemplate the assembling of duly organized commissioners, to be appoint ed by the president and Canada to con sider all pending questions, and if pos sible, negotiate a a treaty covering the settlement of all of them. The plan necessarily implies a suspension ot the action on the Behring sea question for the present. .. Tbe Behring sea meeting began at 11 o'clock today under the usual circum stances of secrecy. The commercial organizations of the country are becoming interested in the question of reciprocity, as it is evidenced by the communications received from Boston merchants, who make a strong plea for Canadian reciprocity. At the morning session the experts concluded their work on ' the technical features of the seal question, reaching an agreement on all points of difference. The signing of their report was deferred until 2:30 this afternoon. ' It was agreed that the nature of the report should not be made public until it had been submitted to their respec tive governments. The three-year-old boy of J. A. John son, of Lynn Center, 111., is subject to attacks of croup.' Mr. Johnson says he is sure that the timely use of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy, during a se vere attack, saved his boy's life. He is in the drug business, a member of the firm of Johnson Bros.,ot that place, and they handle a great many patent med icines for throat and lung diseases. He had all these to eelect from, and skilled physicians to answer to his call, but se lected this remedy for "use in his own home at a time when his boy's life was in danger, because he knew it to be su perior to any other, and famous the country over tor its cures of the croup. Mr. Johnson says this is the best selling cough medicine they handle, and that gives eplendid satisfaction in all cases Sold by Blakeley & Houghton. Stands at the Head. Aug. J. Bogel, the leading druggist of Shreveport, . La., says: "Dr. King's New Discovery is the only thing that cures my cough, and it is the best Beller I have." J. F. Campbell, merchant of Saiford, Ariz., writes : "Dr. Kine'a New Discovery is all that is claimed for it; it never fails, and is a sure cure for Con sumption, Coughs, and Colds. I cannot say enough for its merits." Dr. King's New Discovery, for Consumption, Coughs and Colds is not an experiment. It has been tried for a quarter of a cen tury, and today stands at the head.
