Constipation is caused by loss of the

BaImaceda Ordered Them While He Was
Dictator, and They Were Not Delivered
on Time.
WASHINGTON, D. c., January 49,
Mr. George Sta-Burnaga, who was
Charge d. Affaires Of the Chilean Lega'
ton in Washington during Balmaceda'S
administration, gives some interesting
information in regard to that lot Of 10C
torpedoes shipped to Chile, which Ad'
miral Walker cabled from Montevideo
were en- ronte to their destination. The
heavy shipment Of torpedoes was gener-
ally taken as an indication OF Chile's
preparation for war and an evidence
that she is getting ready to fight the
United States.
Mr.. Sta-Burnaga asserts positively
that these torpedoes were ordered by
Balmaceda during his supremacy, and
paid for by money shipped from Chile
in a British maD-ot-war which was the
occasion OF so much excitement. They
were intended for operations against
the insurgents and not the United
States. The foreign charge d'affairs
knows whereof he speaks, and he was
cognizant Of the negotiations for the
topedoes when they were under way.
While he deprecates war he says that
the Chileans will fight to the last ex-
tremity II hostilities are once begun.
"But we are only three Millions" he
said significantly.
English and German influence, he
thinks, will be brought strongly to bear
on Chile in the interests of peace. The
statement that this lot of torpedoes was
ordered before trouble with this nation
are is corroborated by prominent Off
cial at the War Department, who says
that time has not elapsed since the be-
ginning Of the unpleasantness sufficient
to allow Of contract for so many tor
pedoeS 10 be closed.

be will find an explanation in this para.
graph from the New York Times "a
wholesale grocer in this city. who has
become so rich at the business, says his
rule is that when he sells bill of goods
on credit TO Immediately subscribe for
the local paper of his debtor So long
as his customer advertjses literally he
rested, but as soon as he commenced to
contract his advertising space he took
the fact as evidence that there was trou-
BILE ahead and invariably went for the
debtor" Said he: THE man who is too
poor to make his business known Is too
poor to do business. The withdrawal of
an advertisement is evidence of weak
ness that business men are not slow to
act upon. THERE'S nothing like it.
