OTTAWA. Ont, March ls.-Another
acute stage in the Behring sea un'
ticuly is engaging the attention oi tue
british, United States and 'ahan'a"
Governments. Since the refusal OF the
American congress to votethe cohipen-

About this time last year a similar

would not be enforced in the approach

Morgan, chairman of the senate couh-

SERVED IN w WARS
The Grip Almost Won Where the
Bullet Failed.
Dur Sympathles Always Enlisted In th'
Innrmities of the Veteran.


(Fr0m hs Herald, Woodstoek, FAY
There is an old soldier In Woodstock, Va,
who served In the war with Mexico aud IN
the war Of the rebellion, Mr.. Levi McInturf
He passed through both these wars with
out a serious wound. Tho harlships, how
ever, told seriously on him, for when the
grip attacked him four years ago it nearly
killed him, Who can look on the infirmi
ties Of a veteran without a feeling Of the
deepest sympathyi His t~ownspeople saw
him confined to his house so Frustrated
with great nervousness that he could not
hold a knife and fork at the table, scarcely
able n walk too, and as he attempted it, he
often stumbled and fell. They saw him
treated by the best taleutto be had-but still
he suffered on for four years, and gave up
finally in despair. Ono day, however, he
was struck by the account of a cure which
had been effected by the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. He Immediately ordered Il
box and commenced taking them. He
says he was greatly relieved within three
days time. The blood found its way to his
fingers and his hands which had been pal
edassumed natural color, aud he was soon
enabled TO use his knife and fork at the
table He has recovered his strength 70
spch an extent that he is able TO chop wood,
shock corn and do his regular work about
his home. he now says he can not only
walk 10 Woodstock, but can walk acrossthc
mountains. EIe is able TO lift up a fifty two
pound weight with one hand and says he
docs not know what Or. Williams PIX !
Pills have done for others, but knows TIA
they have done a great work for him.
He was in town last Monday, court day,
and was loud in his praises OF the medicine
that had given him so great relief. lie pur-
chased another box aud took it home with
him, Mr.. McInturf is willing to make
affidavit to these facts.
The proprietcrs ofDr, Williams'PinkP Pills
state that they are not a patent medicine but
a prescription used for many wears by anem-
ineut practitioner who produced the most
wonderful results with them, curing all
forms of weakness arising from q Watery
condition of the blood or shattered nerves,
two fruitful causes of almost every III TO
which flesh is heir. The pills are also u

RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES
The Condition of the Public Treasury Not
So Satisfactory as Was Hoped.

WASHINGTON, March 12.-The treas
urv condition for the first third Of
March shows that receipts have aggre-
gated 50, 325, 900 and the expenditures
Sll.35+,000 or an excess Of eNpendl-
lures over receipts of S2,029,0 900. An
element of uncertainty not heretofore
entering into treasury calculations has
not been considered. 1t is the large
sums of money appropriated by CON
gress in the deficiency appropriation
bill and sundry civil appropriations
bill. Many Of these items are made
Immediately available and the pay
ment yesterday Of $3.50 600 on the
civil and miscellaneous accounts
shows that some Of them have begun
to reach the cashiers desk.
The custom receipts show Il contin-
ued and sustained improvement, being
for the fiscal year up to date, Sloj,e77,-
600, or nearly a million more for the
same time last year.
Internal revenue receipts are s., 000,-
900 in excess of this time last year: but
improvement in both sources of re-
ccipts must be shown for the last third
of the fiscal year or government rev.
enues for the entire fiscal year will fall
considerably below the estimates.

The FALL OF TENCHANTA
Confirmed by Marshal Oyama-.i Line of
Retreat Streun with Dead Men.

LONDON, March T.. A dispatch to
the Central News from Toxic says
that under date Of March II Marshal
Ovama reported that the first division
of the Japanese army, leaving M
regiment to garrison the captured
town Of Ying-Kao, crossed the Lao
river on March . and advanced on
Tenchantai, acting in concert with
the first army, which was proceeding
along the left bank of the river. The
third division of the army advanced
along the left bank and crossed the
river above Teuchantai.
The enemy retreated in the direc-
ton of Tsong Taitz, and was actively
pursued. Eventually the Japanese
forces succeeded in surrounding the
Chinese troops. The Chinese S
tanned severe losses, leaving over LOCO
Of their men dead along the line of
their retreat. This number, however,
does not represent their total loss.
The town Of Tenchantai was burned
by the enemy.
On February 81 there were 600
wounded Chinese soldiers in the hos
pital at Yankao, receiving the atten-
ton Of the foreign Red Cross society.

\ suit Involving siXt!-Eisht Thousand
Acres of Lane Alleged to be Mineral
Lands

\ >N4t involving ~slNfN-ElEht Thousand
Acres of Lane Alleged TO be Mineral
Lands.
WASHINGTON, March l@-Tae sccre-
tary of the interior Yesterday decided
a case involving about o,,oll acres Of
land located il the uPpvr peninsula u
Michigan, near Lake Superior, and
valued at between 100000 o and Sl5,.
900, Oeu.
A grant of geo. Geo acres Of land was
made 10y the government; in l.56 to the
state OF Michigan for the benefit Of the
Portage Lake a Lake superior Ship
Canal Co, now the Wakcena Limited,
a corporation.
The grant was settled by ~patenting
to the company the amount called for
in the grant, Certain persons desired
to file Potertield scrip upon some Of
these lands patented to the company
and their applications being refused
because patents were issued to the
same lands, petition was filed, asking
the secretary Of the interior to recon-
iHNhN ~ LAG avn NY EtutIdA VI
the United States that suits be
brought to set aside the alleged
erroneous c%ertifcation of about s.. 200
acres OF these lands. The commissioner
Of the general land Office recommended
that such suit he brought. The prin-
cipal point in the petition was that the
lands applied for, including the 6. 900
acres were Of mineral character, and
the act making the grant provided for
nonmineral lands only to be patented
to the company.
The secretary, in ~disposing Of the
matter, did not concur with the com.
missioner IF the general land office.
holding Is the principal point Of his
decision. that Oliver II. Browning. a
former secretary Of the interior. had
prac,ica. g decided that the lands Ger.
tilei were NOT, as q fac,. uiuera,
.andS, and refused 90 disturb S~ecrztar-
