Ger Meidenger, at the Union Depot, both OF
whom were cured by it of chills and fever
of several years. standing. Recently his
wife, after a fever Of several days dura-
ton, took a single dose and was perfectly
cured. In view of these remarkable cures,
and remembering how much money is spent
for quinine, SO little to be depended upon,
and often so injurious, we can only wish
that Shsllenberger's Antidote would come
into general use.

THE COTTON OIL TRUST.
A Plan Proposed to Pump Out Some
of the Water.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-The annual American
Cotton Oil trust meeting was held to-day.
The presidents report shows the profits for
the year ended August 81 were Sl,G55, 7s3.
One OF the certificate holders asked that
the report be printed for their benefit, but
Mr. Flagler said great objection to its
being made public was that IL would put
facts and figures into the possession of busi-
ness rivals, which could not be permitted.
E. II. Bonner, one of the certificate hold
ers, wanted TO know why the trustees had
said in tho last circular the profits of the
year would be 81, 600, 900; where had the
missing 81, 100000 gonel
Before F'lagler could explain another
shareholder wanted to know If tho state
meut in the circular that the cash aud cash
assets OF the company were 81, ,0OO,UUJ was
not also 81 900, 900 too much.
Trustee Thomas then said the circular was
issued on special reports from various prop
critics, but since then the regular reports had
come in, and the loss of 81, ,000,O 600 by shrink
age OF values had been made known. He said
he found the men VINO had been officially
conducting the trusts business had been
buying good deal of oil from rival compan-
les, and he had been obliged TO sell out at
lower prices Another thing contributing to
the loss was the poor quality of last years s
cotton seed crop. Thomas then spoke of the
plan of merging the trust into company,
and said by the plan proposed there would
be "a reduction in capital to S21 ,0O0, ,O00 thus
"pumping out some of the water.h Consider

"A Sea Captains Daughter Suicides

"A Sea Captains Daughter Suicides
and Leaves a Strange Letter.
SAN Francisco, Nov 1,-lSpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. Ida Henrietta Schram,
seventeen years old, dropped dead this after
noon while visiting her mother at the out.
skirts of the town. 1t was thought at first
that death resulted from heart disease. An
examination at the morgue, however, showed
it to be q case of suicide.
Ida has been living with her father and
stepmother, and to-day visited her mother,
who had been divorced. Her father is the
captain OF the ship Harvester, against whom
the sailors on the last trip made charges Of
brutality at sea- which somehow or other
were suppressed Ida made three deep water
voyages with her father. A letter in the
dead glrls pocket intimates that her father
is guilty of some awful crime. 1t is ad-
dressed to her mother The writer says
that for years her father had been
beating her. and he and a friend had offered
her $40, 600 to say nothing about certain
matter. Ida lntimates that Il the affair was
known to the police her father would be
hanged, and that though she Is about TO die
her mother must not tell
Al autopsy showed that the unfortunate
girl was virgin, and the inference is that
the father ia guilty of some crime at sea,
possibly the murder of a sailor He was
placed by all the seamen at this port as on a
par with Captain Sparks, of the notorious
ship Gatherer, for cruelty.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The following
Thanksgiving proclamation was issued by
the president this evening:
"A highly favored people mindful of their
dependence on the bounty of Divine Prov-
dence should seek fitting occasion to testify
their gratitude and ascrlbe praise to Him
who is the author of their many blessings.
1t behooves them to look backward with
thankful hearts over the past year and to
bless God for His infinite mercy and His
vouchsafing TO our land of enduring peace,
famine, to our husbandmen abundant har-
vests and to their labor recompense for their
toll.
Now, therefore, I, BENJAMIN Harrison,
president of the United STATES of America,
do earnestly recommend that Thursday, the
2Sth day of this present month of November,
be set apart as a day of national thanksgiv
ing and prayer, and the people of our coun-
try ceasing from the cares and labors of their
working days, shall assemble in their respec-
tive places of worship and give thanks to God,
who has prospered us on our wayand madeour
paths the paths of peace, beseeching Him to
bless the day to our present and future good,
making it truly one of thanksgiving for each
reunited home circle and as q nation at
large.
In witness hereof, have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this 1st
day of November, in the year of our Lord,

A. Medical Fraud.

MELLON, Neb. Nov. 1.-[Speclal to THE
BEE About two years ago DIR. Arthur l..
Conery located here, opened an Office and be-
gan the practice, or rather the malpractice,
of medicine, after having duly registered
with the county clerk. His stock of trade
turns out to have been perfect innocence Of
even the rudiments of the profession, un-
limited cheek, and his talking ways" and
with these he succeeded in dupng numbers
of the afflicted IN the neighborhood. Lately
his antics have attracted public attention
and the atmosphere is becoming rather
warm for him. In his sworn statement he
claims to have practiced in New York City
and at numerous other points throughout
the country and to have graduated from the
Bennett Medical college of Chicago in 1882
Dr. Milton Jay, the dean of this institution,
makes oath that no such man ever entered
the college, attended lectures or graduated.
Consequently he has periured himself and
his diploma is a fraud. Competent testimony
is also forthcoming that his career in Iowa
towns was enthusiastically closed by the
townsmen.
Administering opium for bowel difficulty
in such quantities that the patient was saved
from possible death by antidotes admins
tered by other physicians; treating cases OF
dphtheria in large family of children OF
whom seven died under his treatment, while
refusing to cali counsel, and insisting that he
would pull them through, are among the
cases reported. Securing the confidence of
those hopelessly and incurably diseased with
promises of cure is reported as among his
methods.
In the case of Mr.. Turner, of Ewing, suf-
fering with CONSUMPTION, he cheerfully
promised a cure and in two hours after his
departure the patient died.
He has also, according to his own story,
treated patients for an affection of the 'sci-
