success and remarkable cures performed
by him are due to a thorough know
ledge of the structure and functions of
the human system, and the cure of
diseases by natural remedies.
He makes no experiments and employs
only reason, science and proven facts,
making no appeal to superstitious and

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the toun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprletors have 80 much

A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with very severe cold that caused him
to be in most miserable condition. 1t
was undoubtedly bad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac-
tory IN its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. 1t acted like magic and
the result was speedy and permanent
cure. We have no hesitancy in recon-
mending this excellent Cough Remedy

Proposed Sealing Conference

Participation of Russia and Japan
the OstensibIe Cause.-The Con-
ferences Probable.

LONDON, Oct. 6.-The officials of the
British foreign Office have communicated
to the United States ambassador, Col.
Hay, the final decision of that govern
ment that Great Britain must refuse to
take part in any sealing conference with
representatives of Russia and Japan.
The British government, however, as
serts its willingness to confer with the
United States alone, but insists that
Russia and Japan are not interested in
the Behring sea seals to degree entitl-
ing them to representation at the con-
ference. The British government does
not suggest any date for a conference
with the United States, and it is thought
probable in London that Great Britain's
withdrawal will result in two meetings,
one between the United States and Rus
sia and Japan, and the other between
the United States, Great Britain and
Canada. 1t cannot be too strongly re-
iterated that the withdrawal of Great
Britain from the Washington conference
is due to Canada's insistence, and that
until the Canadian officials informed
the foreign Office here of Canada's OBJ
Jections to the meeting with Russia
and Japan, out of fear of being outvoted.
Great Britain intended to enter the con-
ference.
Great Britain fully intended to attend
the conference with other governments,
and but for Colonel Hays representa-
tions, the first announcement of Great
Britain's unwillingness to take part in
the conference would have been final.
but the United States ambassador so
plainly pointed out the unusual charac-
ter of Great Britain's change of mind at
so late a day that some foreign Office
officials decided to reopen the ques-
tion and have been endeavoring, but
unsuccessfully, to secure Canada's ac-
quiescence.
Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British am
bassador to the United States, also used
his influence in spirit of friendliness
to the United States in efforts to secure
the adherence of Great. Britain to the
original program.
The experts who have been investi-
eating the sale of sealskins in London in
order to obtain evidence for the use of
the United States at the conference,
have proof that eighty per cent of the
skins sold by Canadian sealers are fe-
male seals, and that most of the animals
were shot.

Gold Currency to Be Substituted for
Paper .Meney.


Paper .Meney.
WASHINGTON, Oct. CIV. P. Powell,
United States minister to Hayti, in a
letter to Secretary Sherman, states that
a proposition is now pending before the
chamber of deputies looking to the con-
solidation of several debts of the Repub-
lie into one national debt, the reduction
of the high rate of exchange, the destruc-
ton of the present paper money in use
and the substitution for it of gold cur
rency based on our unit of value, the
American gold dollar.
SIN order to do this" says Minister
Powell, "the government will endeavor
to secure loan from some of our large
banking houses in the United States, to
the amount of sc, 100000. The loan, if
obtained, is to be secured by a portion
of the duty on the coffee crop. estimated
to be worth 100000 annually, and a
portion of the import duty, which they
propose to increase twenty-five per cent,
the money thus accruing to constitute a
sinking fund for the payment of these
bonds. Heretofore all loans that have
been obtained have come through the
merchants here or else through the
Bank of France, which has a branch

AdaptabIlity of Ocean Liners Is Being
Investigated.
NEW York, Oct. GA dispatch from
Washington says.
The navy department has sent letters
to the leading steamship agents whose
vessels have American registry, asking
for information as to the displacement,
speed and general adaptibly of the ves-
sells tor war purposes. All ships of great
tonnage now built in this country are 90
constructed that they would readily meet
the requiremenes of the navy as auxili-
ary cruisers should their services be re-
quired.
The navy at present carries on its list
of vessels that would be available as
commerce-destr in war time the
names of forty-two chips, thirty-two of
the Pacific and the rest on the Great
Lakes.
Chief Constructor Hichborn, under
whose direction plans are being drawn
by which the st. Louis type of vessels
could be converted into formidable mod
ern auxiliary cruisers. estimates that he
can send the St. Louis to sea in three
weeks fully equipped with effective bat
terry and with the vitals well protected
by a system of coal bunkers. He esti-
mates that the navy has now about one
dozen ships which could be quickly so
converted under the plans already per-
fected, and the others could be made
available in little more time.
He anticipates that at least five years
will be required to draw plans for the
full list of vessels carried on the list of
merchants ships that could be used for
purposes, and by that time rifles will
have been delivered at the navy yards
for every one of such ships.
Captain O'Ne1l, the ordinance chief,
will in his annual report. now in prep
Grafton, urge that $780, 1000 be provided
with which to manufacture guns for re-
serve purposes. These guns he proposes
assembling at New York, Norfolk and
League island, with carriage and equip
ment complete, so that they can be
mounted on shipboard.
