WASHINGTON, March 3-The conferees
on the sundry civil bill, after sitting for
several hours, reported an agreement
about o'clock on the items remaining un-
settled after the first conference. The

leaving tho proposition as il came
from the house; also from the amend
ment striking out the provision for the
transformation of the military prison at
Fort Leavenworth. Kan, to n United
States penitentIary, leaving the provisions
as originally made by the house. The
other amendments upon which there was
n disagreement after the first conference
were substantially agreed TO. Verbal
amendments were, however, made in all
of them. Tho amendment providing for
n retired list for inca pacItated officers of

cepted by tho house conferees, with
the provision that the retired oili-

In the case of the amendment authoriz-

They Squeal Because silver is Picking
Out Its Friends
WASHINGTON, March 3-The provision
inserted by tho senate in the sundry civil
bill, by three of It's members, as to the
prospective international monetary con-
ference, has been the cause of consider
able rivalry among the factious of both
the democratic and republican side of tn o
chamber for representation on the COM
mission. From tho time tho amendment
was voted on by tho senate, the silver
men, who believed themselves to be in
the majority in the senate, have assumed
that they would be allowed to name all
three of the delegates on the part of the
senate, and this was apparently at first
conceded to them by the anti-silver men.
Consequently when 4 petition was cir
culated last night asking Senator Jones
of Arkansas, Daniels of Virginia, demo-
Gratis. and Teller of Colorado, republican,
all free coinage advocates, to allow tho
use OF their names for the positions of
delegates, there was comparatively little
objection heard. The paper was generally
signed by the silver men and by several
senators who are not included IN that
classification.
Some of tho anti-silver men declined,
however, to attach their names, and il
was not long until murmur arose against
the programme to select none but silver
men from the senate. This soon grew
into an animated protest on the part of
silver's antagonists. There were, of
course, conferences between the contend
ing interests, when the ant-silyerites con-
fessed that IT was their purpose to secure
representation on the senatorial delega-
tion or throw the selection of the entire
commission into the hands of the presi-

AN IMPORTANT CASE.
1T COMES UP BEFORE THE
UNITED STATES COURT.
Suit for an Estoppel-The Eureka
Chemical Company, of La Crosse
Makes the Trouble.

Papers have been filed in the United
States court of the western district of
Wisconsin, by Tarrant x Kronshage,
attorneys for the Sterling Remedy
company, of Chicago and New York,
in a suit for estoppel and damages
against an imitation of No-to-bac, the
tobacco habit cure. The action Is
brought against concern called the
Eureka Chemical company, of La
Crosse, Wis.
The principles involved in these pro-
ceedings are of the utmost Importance
TO the proprietary interests of America
in general, and form in many respects
a test case, the outcome of which will
be carefully watched by the many
other important manufacturing con-
Germs similarly initiated. Not only
the question of imitation of name,
trademark. form of preparation and
package, enter into the case, but also
the proposition whether the actual adj
vertising literature used in establish
ing the publicity of a preparation can
be stolen with impunity, word by
word, by an imitator. The decision ia

AFTER SIXTY YEARS.
Long Separation Through Family
Quarrel Over a Farm Fence.

Long separation Through Family
Quarrel over Farm Fence.
An aged couple, who were lovers
sixty years ago, but were separated by
family feud, were married in Wilkes
barre, Pa, March 16. The groom is
Walter l. Chaplin. who is 70 years of
age, and his bride is Mary A. Chaplin,
only one year his junior. Their happy
union, after many vicissitudes, proves
again the old saying to be correct that
love never grows old, says the Phila-
delphia Record. During the presiden-
cy of Andrew Jackson they dwelt upon
adjoining farms. The lad was then
poisoning into a sturdy farmer and
his sweetheart was a charming coun-
try girl. They we're lovers in earnest,
but the two families split upon the
rock that has divided many neighbor-
ing farmers. A line fence caused all
the trouble. Young Chapin's father
and the father of the girl each claimed
narrow strip of land. A family feud
sprang up and the lovers were separ-
ated through the influence of their
parents and relatives. Young Chaplin
went to Ohio to make his fortune. His
old Luzerne county sweetheart seemed
to be forgotten, as after some years he
married Buckeye girl. Not long after
ward the first love of his choice was
also married. About year ago her
husband died at a good old age and so
did Chapin's wife. Then Chaplin went
back to his former home in Luzerne.
carrying the burden Of nearly four
score years. Here he heard the life
story of his old-time sweetheart. He
visited the aged widow, and, although
both are in the winter Of life, their af-
lection for each other was renewed. He
again proposed marriage and she ac-
cepted, just sixty years after their first
engagement. The wedding ceremony
that made them man and wife at last
was quietly performed at her home.
