Caiarrh to Consumption.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to and
undoubtedly leads on to consumption. 1t Is there
fore, singular that those afcted with this fearful
disease should not make It the object Of their ves
to rid themselves OF it. Deceptive remedies con-
cocted by ignorant preenders to medical knowledge
have weakened the confidence of the great majority
of sufferers In all advertised remedies They be-
come resigned to life OF misery rather than torture
themselves with doubtful pailiatives.
But this will never do. Catarrh must be met ae
every stage and combated with all our might. In
many cases disease has assumed dangerous symp.

A HOUSE CAUCUS.
Republican Members Discuss the
Silver Bill.
a Great Diversity Of Views on the Sub
jeGt Developed.
Mckinley Presents a Substitute 0mitting the
Bullion Redemption Provision Of
the Former Bill.
Special Dispatches to THE MORNING CALI.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The Republican
Representatives went into caucus immedi-
ately upon the adjournment Of the House
this afternoon, to consider the silver ques-
tion. 1t had been announced in advance by
the leaders that the real purpose was con-
ference rather than a formal caucus. 1t
was suggested that there was no definite
proposition before the caucus, so Reprse-
sentative Buchanan submitted motion
that the caucus bill as it stood be REIN
dorsed. Much talk followed and developed
diversity Of views.
Representative Walker submitted prop
osition, which in effect proposed the refer
ence of the bill back to the former caucus
committee with instructions to report the
bill, which will place gold and silver on
parity by allowing the issue of certificates
to an unlimited extent on deposits Of either
metal at the market value.
Representative Dorsey submitted as
substitute for the caucus bill the draft of
bill he proposed to introduce in the House.
1t provides that any holder of American
silver may deposit it in the treasury and re-
ceive full legal tender certificates on basis
of the market price of silver; that sufficient
bullion be coined to meet the need of re-
demption, and that the National Bank Note
Redemption Fund shall be covered into
the treasury.
Representative Perkins, monemetallist,
in vigorous speech noted his objections to
the bullion redemption nature of the caucus
bill. Finally Mckinley came to the front
with the following compromise proposition:
Resolved that 1t is the sense of the caucus
that the Conger bill as modified by the
special committee should pass the House
with the following amendments: First
that the amount of silver bullion to be pur-
chased monthly shall be S4,500,000; second,
that the bullion redemption feature of the
bill shall be stricken out; third that Treas
ury notes shall be legal tender for private
as well as public debts; fourth, that
said notes shall be redeemable in coin;
fifth, that the funds held for the redemption
OF national bank notes shall be covered into
the Treasury; sixth, free coinage when the
ratio Of silver is 16 to /.
The second proposition was voted down,
the other five were adopted.
When the caucus adjourned there was a
good deal of confusion in the minds of the
members as to whether or not they were
bound TO support the caucus propos ition.
The Committee on Rules will decide when
the bill shall be brought up in the House.
