CHICAGO, May 14-.In last nights sea-
sion Of the miilers' association, Henry
Stanley, Of St. Louis, made technical
report on mill machinery, which was adop-
ted.
II. A Hayden, of Jackson, Michigan,
made report on insurance, favoring the
mutual plan. He offered a resolution
urging increased vigilance by the officers
Of the mutual companies 10 their examina-
ton Of mill risks. Adopted.
MIR. Burbridge, of Alton, Illinois, offered
a resolution reciting the recent decision by
Judge Dyer in the United States court at
| Milwaukee, that the law for registration OF
trade marks is unconstitutional. declaring
that the milling interests in the country
lrequire more stringent laws on the subject
and recommending proper legislation by
lcongress which should be presented aud
urged by committee appointed for that
purpose,
After quite a warm discussion, the nat
ter was dropped, but this morning Mr.
Bnrbridge again brought up the resolu
tons, which we're at once voted down.
The report of the committee on milling
was made by W. r. Brown, Of Red Wing
Minnesota
In the ensuing discussion the idea wa
broaehed and met considerable favor, tina
miIlers can and should regulate the quail
ties of grain grown in their respective 10
calities.
, L. NJ Norton, Of Chicago member o
the committee on grading and inspection
c made a report deprecating the practice 0
O doctoring wheat, and submitted resolution
by J. Meltz, of Milwaukee, recommending
the establishment Of a specific grade fo
wheat, which has been secured to preven
its being classed above its merits on aC
, count of its good appearance. Adopted
G. A. Seybt, chairman Of the committe
on state organization, reported, favorin
the plan of reorganization on the bas
mapped out by President Balm in his oper

ST. Louis, May 13.-Pretty heavy
showers fell here last night and this morn

siderable extent Of territory west Of here
yesterday benefitting the crops greatly.
The officers Of the southern steamboat
com panies, having headquarters 10 this
city and the officers Of steamers plying be-
tween here and New Orleans, deny having
refused transportation to colorea refugees,
whenever the latter have had money to
pay their passage. They also deny that
there has been any generally expressed
disposition on the part of merchants and
planters to withdraw their patronage from
the boats which carry immigrants. This
has been done in few instances, but The
| desire to prevent the negroes from leaving
the south is changing, and now planters
don't seem to care whether they leave ol
not. The officers of the latest arrived
boats say they we're not hailed on the way
up by negroes, and they don't believ'
there are any such numbers of refugee
on the banks as have been stated The,
further state that the excitement is fas
dying out and will cease altogether in
short time.

IF the tourist is unprovided with some
medicinal resource. Changes Of tempera-
ture, food and water of an unaccustomed
or unwholesome quantity, and route that
lies in the tropics or other regions where
malaria exists. are each and all fraueht
with danger to one who has been improvi-
dent enough to neglect a remedial safe
guard. The concurrent testimony of many
voyageors by land and sea establishes the
fact that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters en-
ables those who useit to encounter hazards
of the nature referred to with impunity;
and that, as u medicine adapted to sudden
and unexpected exigencies, it is peculiarly
valuable. Disorders OF the liver, the
bowels and the stomach, fever and ague,
rheumatism and nervous ailments, brought
on by exposure, ARE among the maladies to
which emigrants, travellers and new set
tiers are most subject. These and others
yield to the action Of theiBitters promptly
and completely.
