SUITS AGAINST APPoRTloNMeNT.

Republicans Break Into tho One the Pop
ulists lnauguratetl.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, May 19.-At 1 O'Clock
yesterday morning w. C. Blair. the Popu-
list petitioner. and his attorney, H. G.
Jones, got in from Mount Vernon. They
routed out the circuit clerk and brought
new suit against the secretary Of state
in the form Of injunction proceedings to
restrain him from certifying to nomina-
tons for representative to the county
clerks underline apportionment acts of 1882
and 1893. The suit filed week ago was
mandamus proceeding. A demurrer to
the petition in the original suit was also
filed late Thursday night, and this was
called up before Judge Creighton yester-
day morning.
The state was represented by Attorney
General Moloney, Delos p Phelps and At.
torney Graham, and they were about to
argue when the Republicans put in word
through ex-Assistant Attorney General
Smith. and asked a postponemcnt and op-
portunity to intervene This request was
vigorously opposed BY both sides. but
Judge Creighton said that all the people
OF the state were interested in this pro.
cecding, and inasmuch III the Republican
apportionment act Of 1882 was assaulted
Republicans should be given an opportu.
nifty to he heard. He postponed the argu.
ments and set the hearing for May %.

Dunphy Wants the House to Appoint q
Com mittee.
WASHINGTON, May 1s.-Dunphy of New
York had a hearing before the house rules
committee on his resolution to investigate
the naval armor plate frauds. He went
into the details Of the frauds to show the
committee the dcsirability of probing the
matter to the bottom. Dunphy said that
the frauds for which the government had
already assessed the Carnegie company
e14O.0 occurred between November, 1882.
and September, 1885. The same class of
evidence, he said, showed that similar ir-
Irregularities occurred prior to November,
1871 and subsequently to September, 1893.
It was further urged that the invessiga-
ton now making by officers of the navy
department would be futile, as there was
no power to summon witnesses or to ad-
minister. oaths to to those who voluntari-
~ appeared.
Dunphy had statistics showing that
q, 2OO,OJ would soon fall due to the Car
negie company. The payment could not
be delayed, and il once made it would cut
of an investigation and destroy all means
of redress. Speaker Crisp and his associ-
ates on the committee questioned Dunphy
on the details Of the alleged frauds. He
specified one instance in which an armor-
plate ON the Monterey is said to contain u
blowhOle eighteen inches long.
The man who saw the blow hole when
the arinor was cast, it was alleged. dropped
his card in the whole and is said to be
ready to locate the defective plate and
identify it by his card. The committee
took no action. but Dunphy believes they
will reDOrt back the restitution vrifh n

There is no economy so false as the
neglect of diseases until the earning
power is destroyed.
There is no economy in the use of
patent medicines that are prepared
on the shot gun principle. and which
only hit about one case in a hundred.
There is economy in securing the
services of trained specialist who
treats only chronic diseases, and is
therefore best prepared to treat and
cure you.
There is economy in employing
specialists of ability whose charges
are always moderate. Drs. Stack

The usual treatment of catarrh is
very unsatisfactory, as thousands
can testify. Proper local treatment
is positively necessary to succeed,
but many, if not most. il the remedies
in general use afford bnt temporary
relief. A cure certainly cannot be
expected from snuffs. powders,
douches and washes. Ely's Cream
Balm, which is so highly commended,
is remedy which combines the i'm
portant requisites of quick action,
specific curative power, with perfect
safety and pleasantness to the pa
tient. The druggists all sell it.

ST. LOUIS, May 19-William C. Thomp.
son is In custody here on q charge Of
swindling. He admits his guilt. He sent
to his own address at nearly 200 hotels in
the western states small packages by ex-
press. In appearance they we're money
packages and the valuation marked on
them was usually s25 and $40. A few days
later he sent TO the same hotelkeepers let
tiers stating that he had ordered u jeweler
IN St Louis to send his watch to him
there by express, and requested the hotel
man to pay the c. U. d. charges.
The money packages would be looked
upon by the hotelkeeper rs ample secur-
ity, SO that when a day or two later lit
tie square box purporting to contain a
watch would he delivered the e charges
would be paid. OF course neither pack
age contained anything OF value. Thomp-
son began about May 1,.using the Adams

Cullough. Marine City: Mate Timothy
Bosour. Buffalo, y. "; Thomas Tuscott,
sailor. Marine City; unknown sailor,
Marine City; sailor named "Jim," Marine
City: Cook. woman, unknown. Buffalo, n.
Y. The saved were Robert Patterson, of
Kingston, Ont, and Frank Goordes,
surfman Of No. 9 Milwaukee
life-saving station. All except Goories
were members of the crew of the schooner
Cummings, which sank in the surf
early in the morning, her Crew taking to
rigging.
All day the life savers worked to rescue
this crew. The crew at the station here
got out to the vessel. but could not stay
near the wreck long enough to take any
body OF. On returning to the shore, hnv-
ing left one of its crew on the wreck, the
lifeboat was capsized and its crew had q
very narrow escape. two being so badly
done mp that they had to go under the care
Of physicians.
Then the Racine lifeboat and crew were
sent for and tug was made ready to take
IL in tow as soon rs IL arrived. Upon her
arrival the attempt to reach the
perishing people was again made and
succeeded. but five men and a woman were
dead before che rescue was Mt hand. The
men who persisted fell from their perches
in the erosstrees TO the water and sank
out Of sight like pieces Of lead. The body
of the woman was dashed to the rigging to
which she escaped when the vessel began
TO sink.
Six thousand people lined the piers and
the shores Of Jones' island and the main-
land when the tug knight Templar towed
the life-savers ont.
One hundred feet Of line separated the
tug from the boat and back Of the boat
was towed an empty surf boat. With bow
90 the waves the knight Templar permit
ted the boat TO drop down toward the
wreck. When the surf boat was within
fifty yards of the wreck human figure
that had been clinging to the rigging Of
the mizzenmast was seen to throw up its
hands and fall:backward into the boiling
waves, being instantly lost to sight. A
short time before another of those cling.
ing to the ropes had also let go his hold
and persisted. A groan went up from the
crowd rs each body was lost to sight, and
then all eyes conferred on the surf boat
rs IL dropped back beside the sunken YES
sci. Two figures slowly descended the
shrouds of the mizzenmast and chung to
lines but few feet above the waves.
Five minutes passed ms attempt after at
tempt was made by the life-savers to swing
the lifeboat near the waiting men. A cry
went up from the crowd on shore as one
figure was seen 10 leap from the rigging
