Expensive Economy.

Some people begrudge the little
money that an Allcock's Porous Plaster
costs, and when they are raoked with
pain from lame back, or from the
soreness arising from a cold, they will
spend any amount of money to relieve
the pain. II they only had one of. these
world-renowned plasters on hand they
would be saved vast amount of suf
fering and be considerably richer. Al

apply one Of these plasters without any
delay. The soreness will be greatly re-

Accepted by President Pexioto.
WASHINGTON, March l2.-The State

patches from Minister Thomps at Rio
this evening. The first one stated that
Admiral Saldarha Da Cana had offered
through the Portuguese naval com.
mander to surrender on condition that
he and his followers should be guaran-
teed safety.
This message was brought TO Presi-
dent Pexioto by the Portuguese officer
in person. PeXiotos roply is not given
but 1t Is inferred from the second dis
patch OF Minister Thompson received
two hours later than the first that the
terms were favorably received
According to tho second dispatch Ad-
mirsl Da Cana had left his ship and
gone on boaro the Portuguese vesstl
as an asylum. Secretary Gresham I'M.
derstands that tho war had virtually
ended and is gratified that the result
had been reached in time TO avoid fur

THE QUEENS SPEECH.
Delivered Before Slim Audiences in Both
Bodies OF Parliament.

LONDON, March 2.-Parliament re-
assembled to-day. The lord high chan
cellor, Lord Herschel, read the queens
speech to the two houses assembled in
the house of lords.
Her majesty congratulates the men,
bers upon the continuance of Great
Britains friendly relations to the pow.
ers. She mentions the satisfactory con-
clusion OF the Behring Sea arbitration
as especially gratifying. She refers to
the Anglo Russian negotiations con-
corning the frontiers in middle Asia and
tho Anglo-Chinese arrangements as re-
CARDS the borders of Burmah, and ex-
presses her regret for the encounter be-
tween French and British forces near
Warina, Northwest Africa. The en-
counter Is mentioned as "lamenta BILE
accident"
This, perhaps, proposes in domestic
politics the expected programme. with
two or three additions. The measures
recommended are the abolition of plural
voting. the extension OF the Scotch
local government, the organization Of
boards OF conciliation to settle labor
troubles, the amendment OF the factory
acts, the disesJa blishment OF the
church in Wales, the relief of evicted
tenants in Ireland, and registration re-
form.
Only few peers were present at
the opening. Many women occupied
seats in the body of the house In the
galleries were also number OF women
and United States Am bassador Bayard
was in the diplomatic gallery. When
the members OF tho house Of commons
were summoned to hear the spec oh
read, only fifty came.
A meeting OF the liberal leaders was
held at noon at tho foreign office. There
was full attendance. John Morley,
Lord Roseberry and Sir VIM. Harcourt
made speeches, which elected pro.
longed cheers. Lord Roseberry said
they missed the sublime figure. which
had not onlySenriched the ministerial
bench. but the house Of commons also.
(Cheers.)
1t had been thought that he (Rose-
berry, ought to make complete
declaration of his policy. (Cries OF
hear, hear) There was no need of such
declaration, he said. seeing thai there
would be no change OF measures, but
only of men. The cabinet had no in
tention OF recedlng from the policy they
pursued at the last session.

HOUSE DISCUSSES THE TROLLEY.

Its Entire Session Occupied In ConsIdera-
ton of IL Proposed Change In Car Pro-
pulsiOn.
WASHINGTON, March 12.-The entire
days session OF the House was devoted
to the cons deration of bill to au-
thorize the Metropolitan Street Railway
Company to change its motive power to
underground trolley.
No vote was reached upon the bill,
ncr upon any of the amendments pro-
posed to it. rhe irrepressible conflict
between the trolley, electric and all
other systems of propulsion for street
cars came prominently to tho front, and
was responsible for the failure to get
the bill beyond tho discussion stage.
The House at 3 o'clock adjourned
until tomorrow.
