ALtfe ON the Ocean Wave

Indurates the stomach against sea sick
ness, but single or occasional transit
across the ''illimitable wetness" is product
i've of grievous qualms, especially when it
is stormy. Ocean travellers, yatchmen,
ship surgeons, commercial buyers sent
abroad, voyagers by steamboat, and all
who are occasionally or frequently called
upon to be where .'billows are buffeted,'
should take along Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. the finest known antldote for sea
sickness, malaria, billiousness, and disor-
ders of the stomach and bowels. Many
travellers by railroad, with delicate stom
achs and nerves, likewise suffer severely
en- route. These will find the Bitters sure
ly helpful and consolatory. Travelling,
even in swift, steady and commodious
steamships and sumptuous palace cars,
is not always a source of unmixed joy and
delight, and the Bitters does much TO
counteract the discomforts attending it,
aggravated by delicate health. Rheuma-
tism, brought on by damp weather, kid
ney troubles and debility, are effectually
relieved by the Bitters.

& BIG TIME

TOPEKA, Oct 5.-Certainly today was
red letter day in the history of Topeka.
There was at least $1,000 people at Camp
McCook. The drills, sham battle and
grand parade participated in by the regu-
lars were marvellous exhibitions. The
storming of the fort and flambeau display
tonight were the grandest sights of the
kind ever witnessed anywhere. Major
Warner. commander in-chief OF the Grand
Army OF the Republic, made a speech al
Exhibition hail tonight. This hall is cap
able of accommodating 10,0o0 people. Not
only all the seats on the down stairs floor
and the galleries were taken, but thous-
ands clamored for admission who could
not get in. They kept up such
q din it was almost impossible
for the major TO proceed with his address.
Senator Plumb was also here. His Tecep-
tion was a succession Of hurrahs and the
distinguished senator could hardly make
his speech on account of the frequent and
feryent applause which greeted almost
every word he uttered. The reunion has
proved TO he success beyond all expeeta-
rions and the attendance has been so great
that il would be difficult to estimate it.

HOUSE..

WASHINGTON, Oct 5.-Immediately
after the reading of the journal the house
proceeded to consideration of private
business.
Several private bills having been dis
posed of in committee of the whole, MIR.
McRae, of Arkansas, called up the senate
bill to incorporate the Maritime Canal
company, of Nicaragua, and this time
the measure was taken up for cousidera-
ton.
Mr.. Culberson, of Texas, offered an
amendment providing that nothing in
this act shall be held or construed In any
manner to involve the United States in
any pecuniary obligation whatever other
than in respect to the payment OF tolls.
Mr. Phelan. of Tennessee, offered
amendments providing that the canals
shall be under the control and protec-
ton of the United States, in order
that the representatives of all the North
and South American people may be
guarded against any infringement or az
gression on the part of foreign nations;
also that tolls shall be equal on the same
class of tonnage for vessels OF all nations,
except as provided in article 81 of the con-
cessions and DEGREES of the republic OF
Nicaraugua to the Nicaraugua Canal asso-
citation, Of Nicaragua; also that the
United States government bind itself to
protect all the rights of the citizens
acquired under said concessions and de-
crees and guarantees the neutrality Of
said canal and its operation I'M
der the terms of said concessions and
DEGREES, subject to consent and approval
by treaty or otherwise of the countries
through which the canal may be con-
structed.
Mr. Culberson opposed Mr.. Phelan's
amendments. If they were adopted the
government would have to keep a stand
ing army in Nicaragua to protect the
rights of the corporation.
Mr. Phelan replied that the bill had
been drawn in careful conformity to the
attitude of the state department,
Mr. Fuller, of Iowa, said that the bill
was piece of gigantic legislation. 1t was
so important that it should not be consid-
cred on Friday when it was expected that
only private bills would be called up and
at a time when there were only about sixty
members present. He did not intend to
permit the bill to go through without a
quorum.
Mr.. Phelan, in order not to imperil the
passage OF the bill. withdrew his amend
ments and Mr.. Culbersop'S amendment
was agreed to. The bill being in commit
tee of the whole, the question was put on
reporting the bill favorably to the house.
Inc vote restiIteu ID 10 D. anu III ulIef
made the point of no quorum.
The committee then rose.
Mir. Burns, of Missouri, then offered a
concurrent resolution. which was agreed
to, for the appointment of a select joint
committee Of three senators and three rep
resentatives to investigate the work done
on the Washington aqueduct tunnel, the
contracts made for the same, the bidding
III for and letting of the contracts and the
cOmDelSatlQQ paid for the WORK,
The house then took a recess, the even
ing session to be for the consideration of
private pension bills.
The house at its evening session passed
twentyseven private bills, and at 1920 adj
iourned until Monday.

HOGS. CATTLE AND CORN

CHICAGO, Oct 5-Mallory g. Son, one of
the leading hog receiving commission
firms, have issued their annual report on
hogs, cattle and corn, in which they say:
Although we will have an immense corn
crop, there Will be a shortage on old hogs.
which are always shipped during what is
known as packing season." The reports
denote that the bulk of the supply of the
packing hogs will be shipped to market
later than usual at least one month or six
weeks, whereas, year ago reports showed
that the bulk of the hogs would come to
market in November, December, January
and later. The cause of this scarcity of
packing hogs is due to two features:
That farmers all through the
west lost a large percentage of their
spring hogs through cold, wet weather,
sickness, etc, and that those which were
saved together with older hogs have been
forced to market on account of high prices
of corn at home, and high prices which
have been paid for hogs during the past
three mouths The late pigs will not be
gin TO come forward of January and the
bulk of them will not reach the market
till late in the spring and summer. The
number of cattle to be fattened shows an
increase of fully 10 per cent We should
have extra good beef at reasonably low
prices the coming year.
The crop of corn speaks for itself and
needs no comment. Dakota shows a full
crop of old hogs and pigs. Michigan
shows a full crop of pigs. Leaving out
Dakota and Michigan the balance of the
list shows a total shortage of old hogs of
p per cent and on shoats of about II = per
cent. Iowa and Illinois together show a
decrease of 81 > per cent on old hogs and
49, per cent on shoats. The percentages
are made from most reliable reports, re
ceived from 346 counties, embracing the
producing territory in the states of Hi
nois, Iowa, Nebraska. Wisconsin, Kansas,
Missouri, Indiana, Minnesota, Michigan
and Dakota.

Referring to the annexation of Canada,
he said: Il consider that it is only ques-
