(pY TELEGRAPH THE rRrBUNE.1
Albany. April 2-The Senate debated for q few
moments tonight the Assembly bill to put the
patronage Of the State hospitals for the insane IN
the hands Of Thomas c. Platt and exhibited an
unfortunate desire to pass 1t. The debate was an
amusing example OF the efforts OF politicians some
times to conceal the real object OF bills
As soon as the till was announced Senator Can
tor moved to strike out the enacting clause. He
gave no reasons for his action. but Senator Els
worth, OF Lockport, at once acknowledged thAs
there was a dim suspicion on the part OF some
persons that the bill contained a grab for patron
age by saying with comIcal solemnity: "In the
past confess there might have been reason for
Senator Cantor's evident: thought that there 10
some political motive In This bill. and that the
Governor was to be endowed with political pat
ronage and would that patronage for the
benefit OF his party but with the present Exec
utive there Is no such danger. and am sure that
Senator Cantor has no such thoughts"
Not yet being Governor" glibly replied Cantor.
Il cannot say what would do with such bill.
And agree with Senator Ellsworth that no one
would accuse Governor Morton of being q parti-
san. But think that no sach responsible duty
should be put upon his shoulders as that Of ap-
pointing the heads OF all the State hospitals for
the ins'ne in the State" ~ ..-... 81.
Senator Raines has not been known before q
humorist. but he proved himself one by saying with
great solemnity: There have been 50 many State
boards classined ana reorganixed that there ought
to be no objection to the reclassihcation Of the
Boards Of Managers OF the State Hospitals for the
Insane I am sure Governor Morton will not make
any political appointments. for he has not done q
any time In the course Of us administration"
whereat the Senators laughed

being political patronage buried In the bill
who amended this bill secretly last week In the
Assembly and put In this section abolishing the

IMMENSE COAL FIRE.

A Heap Containing 100000 Tons is
Burning.
The immense heap of bltuminous coal
in the yards of the Consolidated road
at the railroad shops dock, from which
the locomotives of six divisions get
their supply Of fuel, has been on fire
many times within recent years, but 1t
is in more danger of destruction now
than ever before. The fires are caused
by spontaneous combustion, and this
time the whole heap appears to have
been affected.
There are nearly 100000 tons OF coal
In the heap and men have been work
ing on it night and day for two weeks,
digging in to eXtinguish the fire. I'M
mense quantities of coke have been dis
covered, and 1t Is estimated now that at
least 10000 tons of the coal has been
destroyed already, with the futile burn
| ing. The coal is unloaded from vessels
| at dock near the heap and is brought
| to the pile by elevated railroads. The
unloading has been stopped, it being
the intention of the company to cease
adding to the pile until every spark
has been eXtinguished.
The railroad pays about 81 a ton fol-
| the soft coal used in it's locomotives, sc
that the loss already is estimated a.
| $50, 000

LIVER cLoeGlNG.
When Your Stomach Clogs Your Liver
See to Your Digestion.

See to Your Digestion.
Not one person in a thousand knows
that the cause of biliousness is the
clogging of the liver by the poisons OF
Indigestion. Nor that the only proper
cure for it is a tonic to aid the stomach.
But modern medicine declares the truth
of it. And the Shakers have proved it
by the wonderful success Of their Sha-
ker Digestive Cordial.
One of the most important uses OF
the liver is to arrest and destroy all
posons which try to find their way in
to the blood. When it's clogged, II
can't do this.
Undigested food ferments and putri-
fies in the stomach, and the poisons OF
putrifaction clog and paralyze the
liver, after which they find their way
into the blood.
Here is the true explanation Of all
the distressing disorders and compl-
cations caused by indigestion.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is the only
tonic cordial which aids the stomacr
in a natural way to digest it's food by
this means, it cures indigestion, re-
stores the liver and frees the BODY
from poison and disease.
Headache, dizziness, neuralgia, men
tai depression, constipation, loss OF ap
petite, anaemia, rheumatism, and many
other disorders are relieved and curec
by Shaker Digestive Cordial.
At druggists. Ten cents for ira
