The National Board of Trade Presidents
Financial Opinions.
WASHINGTON CITY, Feb 13 Mr.. Fraley.
of Philadelphia, president of the National
board of trade, appeared before the coin
age committee yesterday and in reply to
questions as to the soundness and stability
OF English currency, said that all COM
mercIal settlements were made upon the
goiu OASIS and no matter whether or not
the payment was made in. gold or silver.
1t was adjusted on that basis This was
demanded By the laws of trade. Replying
to question as to what the task set for
the United States would be if a free coin.
age bill were passed he said that if the
United States could put itself in a posi-.
ton to buy all the silver in the world and
stop the mining they would be able to fix
any price on silver they wished.
Don't Seem to Exactly Agree.
He did not believe this possible, and
said that we must deal with the silver
atioat in the world. The result would be
that as soon as the United States had ex.
hausted the supply of silver in sight, sill
yer would begin to command much
higher price in Europe. If the free coin
age bill was passed his bank would pay
deposits in legal tender until it decided
whether to close its business or to place it
on a gold basis.
MIR. Joel Cook, of Philadelphia, finan.
cial editor of The Ledger. spoke against
free coinage. He claimed that silver was
commodity like wheat, and that if the
United States become purchaser at a
higher price than that of silver elsewhere,
silver would come here until the supply
became so large that the price would fall
until it became glut on the market.

Mary Ann Douchertx,s Pension

WASHINGTON CITY, Feb. BIN the SEN
ate yesterday the bill granting pension
to Mary Ann Dougherty was taken up. A
bill was passed for the benefit of this
woman during Cleveland's administra-
ton, and it was vetoed on the ground that
she was entirely undeserving of the grant.
When the bill was reached yesterday
Cockrell objected to it, and Blair moved
that it be considered notwithstanding the
objection. Thereupon Cockrell declared
that the bill could not be passed, as there
never was such an infamous fraud, adding
that the woman was drunken debauchee.
Blair contented himself with scowling at
the Missouri senator and withdrawing his
motion.

Let every enfeebled woman
know it! There's a medicine
that'll cure her, and the proofs
positive
Here's the proof - if it
doesn't do you good within
reasonable time, report the
fact to its makers and get
your money back without
a word-but you won't do it !!
The remedy is DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription and it
has proved itself the right
remedy in nearly every case
of female weakness.
1t is not a miracle. 1t won't
cure everything it has
done more to build-up tired,
enfeebled and broken down
women than any other medi-
cine known.
Where's the woman who's
not ready for it? All that
we've to do is to get the
news to her. The medicine
will do the rest.
Wanted Women. First
to know it. Second to use
it. Third to be cured by it.
The one comes of the other.

is not in the brain. Regulate
