TABLED BY THE SENATE.

The Resolution Introduced by Sena-
 tor Pefer for the Investigation of
 Statements That Senators Dabbled
 in Stocks Was Placed on the Table.
 WASHINGTON, March 12-A substitute for the tariff bill was introduced by MT. Peffer in the ssnate to day and he gave mo- tice that he would seek an early opportun- ity of addressing the senate on the subject. An amendment to the tariff bill was also given notice of by Mir. GsllInger, rep, of New Hampshire. It provides that the bill should be operative so far ss importations from Canada were concerned only upon proclamation by the president and that @ commission should be appointed looking to freedom of commercial intercourse with Canada.
 The resolution offered last Friday by MT. Peffer for the investigation of newspaper statements ss to some senators having been engaged in stock jobbing speculstions in Sugar certificates and having made large profits therefrom was laid before the sen ate. Mr. Quay, rep, of Pennsylvania, moved to lay the resolution on the table. The presiding officer aaid that as the reso- lution created charge against the contin- gent fund 1t could not be considered until 1t had been referred to the committee on contingent expenses.
 MT. Peffer struck ont such portions of the amendment as required expenee and then addressed the senate. He eaid that during the last few weeks there had been gossip in the newspapers and the senate ss to influences which had been operating in the senate to prevent certain lines of leg islation. That gossip had become 30 in- tenee and SO widespread that he had felt humiliated, pained and wounded. He had finally concluded that 1t was his duty to call the matter to the attention of the sen- ate.
 Ar. German, dem of Maryland, de- nounced the practice of bringing to the at tention of the senate all the gossip rehsct- ing on senators or the senate. He de- nounce1 the proposition of investigation aud trusted that the senate would come back to Its old-time course. He moved to table the motion. The motion was agreed to-33 to 27-as follows:
 Yeas-AIlison. Blackburn, Butler, Caf- fiery. Camden, Carey, Cockrell, Cullom, Faulkner, Gallinger, Gibson, German, Gray, Harris, HawIey. Hunton, Irby, Lin day, McMillau, Mandersen, Martin, Mitchell of Wisconsin, Morrill,, Palmer, pssco, Proctor, Quay, Ransom, Stock bridge, Teller. Villas and Woleott-33. Nsys-Aldrich, Allen.

 Mr. George, dem, of Aississippi, ex plainsd why he had voted In the negative That vote, he said, gas not to be taken ., indicating any belief or suspicion on hii | partthat any senator had been guilty of th. | offsnse charged. It simply expressed hiI | conviction that fair and full investigation would show the groundlessness of tn,
 charges, and thus tend to suppress such In snuations In the future.

Admiral da Cana Makes overtures
 That are Accepted and Then Goes
 Aboard a Portuguese Vessel as an
 Asylum.
 WAsHIssroN. March 12.-The state de- partment received two important dispatch es from Minister Thompson, at Rio, this evening.
 The first dispatch stated that Admiral ds Gama had offered through the Portu- guese naval commander to surrender on condition that he and his followers should be guaranteed safety. This message was brought to President Peixoto by the Port uguese officer in psrson. The president's reply is not give ,, but 1t is inferred from the second dispatch of Minister Thompson received two hours later than the first, that the terms were favorably received. Ac- cording to the fecond dispatch, Admiral ds Gama had left his ship and gone aboard the Portuguese vessel as an asylum.
 Secretary Gresham understands from the dispatches that the war has virtually ended and is gratified that the result has been reached in time to avoid further bloodshei. Minister Mendonca said tonight that he had received information fully in accord with that of the state department.

vAILR's AssAILANrs CAPTURED.

The Would.be ThompsonvflIs Eur glars Under Arrest-One of Then
 Though He would Die and made .
 Confession-5hortly After His Pals
 Were Caught.
 SPRIseyIKLD, Mass., March 12.-Frank Mace, ''New York Slim," and Arthur St. Marie, who with Edward E. Burke, now at the almshouse, are supposed to be the men who assaulted and robbed the watch man, James Vaile, at the Thompsonvills, Conn.,, station February IS, were arrested in this city this morning. Burke came i'll to the WayfArers' lodge Wednesday and the following day was removed to the almshouse. His case grew uorse and last night he became dslirious and jumped through . wire screen on . second story window to the ground. His injuries did not prove serious, but on being brought back into the house he became convinced that he was about to die and made c con- fession.
 He said that he had served term in the Ohio penitentiary for highway robbery, e term in the Rhode Island penitentiary for burglary and had been arrested in Provi- dence for various offences. He, with St. Marie and Mace came from Worcester to this city Wednesday with the intention of robbing postofices in this vicinity, but ss he was taken i'll the crimes had been post poned.
 Officers were telephoned for and In- tpsctor Guilty and Oficsr Wilson of chompsonville went to the almshouss. To them he told the same story. The officers were at once on the alert for St. Marie was wanted fer burglary in Steele's grocery story on Bay street, two years ego. While they were returning from the almshouse they met St. Marie aud Mace at the corner of State street and St. James avenue and arrested them.
 It was immediately suspected they were the men who assaulted Vaile st Thomp- sonville and the wstohman was sent for. He identified St. Marie and the New York crook as the two rufians and also said that Burke's clothes were those worn by the third man who assaulted him. The cage against the three men now seems to he complete and the police were oongrstulat- ing themselves on their lucky catch.

A NEW DISEASE. People Who Are Wearing Away Because Ihsy Cannot Digest Their Food. They Eat Heartily, But Their Food Does The m No Good.

If you speak to your aequsintsnces you will too often find someone who says to you: 'My food does me no good. have s good, even 6 vo racious, appetits. I eas plenty and enjoy what I eat, but I'm thin as a rail. My stomach pains me after meals. get no flesh or strength from what eat"
 This is not ex Ictiy 6 new disease. It Is new because doctors are beginning to give it stten- ton. They are recognizing that al the door Of this disease may be laid the blame for most of the dangerous sicknesses which decImate the human race.
 Consumption, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Disbe- tes, scrofua-au these and many other diseases could be prevented or cured if 6 food could be found that would "do good"
 Doctors have recognized that in PAskola tbey have such food. Made according to scientiAc principles, of the purest starch foods (the strengthening tattening foods) predigested, it is perhaps the only food which will ''do good" to tse most delicate stomach and to the sickest dy peptic.
 Paskola is not e medicine. It is an aid to med icine. It often does away with the need for medicine.
