Summary of the Daily News
WASHINGTON NOTES.

The April government crop report
makes the condition of winter wheat
S1.4 per cent, a decline OF Z.6 per cent
since December. The April condition
last year was S6.7 per cent.
A CABLEGRAM to Washington on the
10th stated that seven out of the eight
terms of peace between China and
Japan had been agreed on.
SECRETARY MORTON has written a
letter to DIR. Salmon, chief of the
bureau of animal industry, asking him
to instruct his agents to make thorough
inquiry into the present high price of
beef, and to furnish him as rapidly as
possible with all data at their COM
mand showing what diminution, if
any, there is of the cattle supply of the
United States for 1895 as compared
with previous years.
THE president on the 18th had not
answered the Chicago invitation to
make an address in that city on the
subject of the currency, but if he finds
1t impossible to go it was expected he
would decline in letter expressing
his views on the subject.
IN response to an ivitation from
some business men of Chicago to go tic
that city and make an address on the
money question, President Cleveland
has sent a letter giving his views ON
the subject, which are antagonistic tc
the sentiment in favor of silver. saying
in one place that 1.-The line of battle
was drawn, and. disguise it as we may,

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevera
and permanently curing constipation:
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is MINI
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,

On the principal lines of the Chicago,
Milwaukee q st. Paul railway passenger
trains are electric lighted, steam heated and
protected by block signals. With these
modern appliances, railway travelling at
high speeds has reached degree of safety
heretofore unknown and not attainable on
roads where they are not in use. Electric
lights and steam heat make it possible to
stove. Block signals have reduced the
chances for collisions to the minimum by
maintaining an absolute interval of space
between trains.
