dsrful Remedy Ever Discovered
My wife, Sarah E. Dill, was paralyzed three
years ago, and was in a very low condition.
She had commissions coming on at the same
time every month, which were so severe that
we expected that she would never come out Of
some of them. Since that time she under
the treatment for Is months of a first-class
physician who became discouraged and
finally allowed her to use;Dr Greene's Nervura.
which she has been taking ever since. She
has never had a convulsion rany symptoms
of one since she began using this medi
cine; she is gaining rapidly in health and
strength, and is able to be about the house
and yard and do some light work. l consid
er DR. Greene's Nervura the most wonderful

FALLING SICKNESS AND ST.
VITUS' DANCE.
EpiIeptic and Other Fits Cured.


For years cure for Epilepsy and other Fits
caused by disease of the nerves has been
sought. 1t is now conceded by physicians,
druggists and the people that the long needed
remedy has been found in DIR Greene's Ner-
vura, which has, by curing thousands OF cases,
proved that it is an absolute specific tor these
terrible nervous complaints. 1t is harmless
vegetable remedy, and sure and positive
cure for all nervous diseases. All druggists
keep it at $1.00 per bottle.
My son had been troubled with epilepsy,
loss of appetite, and had no ambition to do
anything. After trying several remedies, he
took Dr. Greene's Nervura, and can truly say
that it made him new boy. The fits have
left him, his whole system is built up anew,
and he is enjoying perfect health. 1t is the
best medicine I ever used, and after trying
others I find it has no equal.

CHAIRMAN WALKERS DECISION.
Chicago Dealers Let Looss a Howl
of Protcst-A Matter Which
is Likely to Reopen
Some Old Sores.
Trouble Brewing.

CHICAGO, Jan. a. Special Telegram TO
lnB BEE. Chairman Walkers decision
on hard wood lumber rates from Wisconsin
AMI Peninsular Michigan points TO Missouri
river points has raised a how Of protest
from the lumber interests of Chicago. II
again brings up the whole question of com7,
petition between the northern and southern
states lumber, II question, which babe fair
last spring To bring about n sectional rate
war. Thu situation now is exactly the same
rs then. The umber merchants of Wis
consin and Michigan are asking tho roads to
protect them from the competition of tho
yellow pine Of the south by reducing rates,
forgetting that equal pressure will be
brought to bear on the southern roads to
make such reduced rates. The stu
alton is further complicated by the
fact that the rates quoted by Chairman
Walker arc reduced rates and not via Chi
cago. In other words. a soft wood tariff il
made via the direct lines from Wisconsin
and Michigan as well as to Chicago. From
Chicago, however, all the kinds of wood eX-
cept one or two are classified as hard wood,
thus raising tho rate by the direct lines from
Chicago over the rate of the direct lines
from Wisconsin and Michigan. The kick OF
the lnmbermen has already resulted in q
decision by the Alton to meet from Chicago
any reduction made from Wisconsin and
Michigan, consequently Chairman Walkers
decision is Dulliiied before even IL is put into
effect.

Like Dogs.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Some time ago the
Illinois, made complaint to Governor Eifer
regarding the treatment of the insane
patients confined at the Wheaton poor
house on account of the over crowded condi.
tion of the state insane asylums. A commits
sion appointed by the governor began an in
vestigation yesterday and heard many wit
nesses. Evidence was taken going strongly
to prove The charges. These charges were
in effect that two insane women were kept
in zinc lined cells, seven feet square, with
no beds, bedding or necessary conveniences;
that the cells were allowed to remain filthy;
that the patients IN their demented condition
tore off their clothing and were al.
lowed to remain absolutely naked, and
that in this condition other inmates
of the poor house as well as employees OF the
poor farm were allowed access to the corri-
dor and to stare OF and ieer at the unfortun-
ates. IL is further charged that such atten-
ton as these poor patients did receive was
given them by male attendants, there being
no female attendants employed at the poor
house.
One of tho witnesses said he had seen ono
of the women fed. Her hands were tied be-
hind her, ana as the food was placed on the
floor, she was obliged to get down and eat
like a dog.
1t was in evidence that aside from the in
sane patients the house was well managed.
The management admitted that the insane
patients were not as well cared for as they
should be, but claimed it was the best that
could be done, as there were no c0nvenienceB
for taking care eff insane people.

One of Minnesota's State smen
Charged With Running n Home.
MlNNEAPoLIs, Mimi, Jan. Especial Tel
egram to hi BEE. Senator David M.
Clough is charged by DIR. J. A. Moore with
the seduction of the latter's young wife and
is made the defendant in q damage suit for
$50, 000. The complaint IN the action was
filed just before noon in the district court.
The complaint in the damage suit was served
on Senator Clough Tuesday. Tho first GRIM
inal intimacy between C!ough and Mrs.
Moore, as charged in the complaint, was a
year ago last April at No. 1871 Clinton ave-
nue., where the wife still resides. The COM
plant further states that MIR. and Mrs. Moore
zane to Minneapolis from Boston about
three years ago, both of them being Chris
tan scientists. Shortly afterwards Senator
Clough engaged their professional services
for his wife, who was an invalid. Mrs.
Moore gave the treatment, visiting the fam
lily residence frequently and spending a large
part of her time there. The following winter
the defendant took his wife to California IN
the endeavor to see if q change of climate
would not be beneficial to her health. Mrs.
Moore accompanied the lady as her medical
ing the residence in California that the GRIM
inal intimacy is said by the complainant to
have existed. Mrs. Moore lives at the
residence of her father, William A. Shaw,
at No. 1871 Clinton avenue She is a young
and pretty lady of about thirty years. She
has lately brought an action for divorce.
Senator Clough makes no answer to the
complaint more than TO say 1t is q blackmail-
ing scheme. He is one of the leading repub-
licans of MINI esota and the affair has created
"a great sensation. Mrs. Clough died while
being treated by the Christian scientists.

BRIUE LEADS A LITTLE.
A Rumor That the Democrats Will
Put I'm Camnbell

Put Up ga
COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 3.-There is no mate
rial change in the senatorial situation today.
1t Is reported that all candidates tor the
speakership with the exception of Hysell
lave withdrawn. This gives increased life
to Brice's boom for the senate. Hysell is
recognized as the speakership candidate of
the Brice element. There is an unconirmed
report that the democrats will elect Marquis,
lieutenant governor, over Lampson and run
Go vernon Campbell against Brice for the
senate.
An effort was mad early in the day to
create O sensation in a business way by try
ing to force Calvin S. Brlce to a settlement
in connection with the old Lake Erie & West
ern railway. Brice was president of the
Lake Erie & Western before its reOrganiza-
ton after the receivership and still holds the
position. His callers were v. G.. Ward and
J. G.. G%rossman, local ticket brokers. Ward
accosted Brice and after inquiry into his
business relations presented a roll of old
coupon tickets, nearly four hundred Of which
he said had been repudiated and demanded
settlement. He said he proposed TO hold
Brice responsible and the latter replied that
he knew nothing about it, but that II ne had
a claim about which there was a dispute, he
should bring suit and proper settlement
would follow. The friends of Brice pay lit
tie attention to tho performance and are
proceeding with the business before them.

SETTLED BY COMPROMISE.
End of a Noted Damage Suit Against
the Union Pacific.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 12.-lSpeclal Tele
gram to TnE BEE. l-The noted case of John
Mcbride VS. the Union Pacific railway com
pany was today settled by compromise, the
company paying Mcbride a satisfactory
amount of money, but the exact SUN is not
known. Mcbride, while employed in the
Union Pacific shops at this point, was in
jured in November, 1888. With several
other men he was engaged in lowering to
the tracks an engine which was being re-
paired. When the last plank was removed
a grip was lost on it IN one side and it flew
up on the other, the end striking Mcbride
under the chin and hinging him with great
violence against the driving rod. Mcbride
was rendered a physical wreck, the section
of his brain which controls movement hav-
ing been demorallzed. Suit for damages in
the sun OF S25, coo was begun in 1884. 10
1856 the case came to trial and the jury rem
dered a special verdict. One of the great
points involved was as to whether Harry
Stubs, the gang boss in charge of the work
at the moment of the accident, was entrusted
with the superintendent of the work indie
pent Of the master mechanic. On this point,
mainly owing to a peculiarly in the law,
hinged the company's liability. The jury
awarded SIS, 600 to the plaintiff in certain
contingencies. A motion for Judgment under
this finding was overruled. a motion for a
new trial was similarly disposed of. The
| case was then taken TO the supreme court,
where 1t was remanded back for rehearing.
The case was in this condition when q COM
prolnis was effected.

KILLED BY BURGLARS.
Two Women Chloroformed aud One
Of Them Dies.

TRENTON, N. j., Jan. 3-The dead body Of
Mrs. Kniffeu, wife OF DR.. Arthur S. Kniffen,
was found on the floor Of her bedroom this
morning. Near by lay the unconscious fig
Lre Of Miss Purcell, a young lady who has
been visiting the family. Both were appar-
entity chloroformed. The deed is supposed
TO have been done by burglars.
Miss Purcell was finally revived. She
said that during the night she was awak-
ened by Mrs. Kniffen. who screamed that
there were burglars IN the house. Miss Pur
cell sprang from the bed to call help, but
was seized by a man who applied u drug TO
her face. Mrs. Kniffen was seized by an
other man, who chloroformed her. That
was the last Miss Purcell remembered un-
Til resuscltated by pt ysicians.
Miss Purcell had almost entirely recovered
from her prostration this evening. She still
insists on the truth OF her story OF burglary,
although the police can find so little to justify
this theory that they are not looking for the
alleged burglars. DIR. Knifin reached Tren-
ton from broadway tonight and was imme-
diately taken unaer escort of detectives TO
the police station ana subjected TO a private
interview. The police say the doctor is not
under arrest.

THE WHITE car CASE.
Evidence ON Behalf of the State
Closed last Night

HoIroKE, Colo, Jan. 3-[Special Tele.
gram to The BEE. THE evidence against
the railroad boys, Nelson and Payne, showed
that Swan Clint Nelson is an engineer and
should have left on his engine at 8 o'clock in
the evening of the night that Bennett and
Kelsey were whipped. Forty minutes be-
fore leaving time he got excused and En-
gineer Clark was sent out on his engine.
George Payne's duties required him TO
change engines on the arrival of the Chey-
enne passenger tram at LAC a. m. on the
night in question. He got a man By the
name of Huckleberry to do thus work for
him. The general tenor of the evidence
went to show that most of the defendants
spent the principal portion of their time be-
tween 8 and IL o'clock in Walsh's and
Lewis saloons. Payne and Nelson put IN
their appearance at the switch house about
2:30 in the morning.
The evidence for the state was closed this
evening. The defense will commence the
introduction of evidence tomorrow morning
at 0 o'clock.
