WOOL SCHEDULE ADOPTED
Substantially the Same as That in
the Mckinley Bill.
The Only Important Changes Made
Are in the Classification of
Certain Woods.

The Mckinley schedule on woods and
woolens was substantially adopted yes ter
day by the Republican. .majority OF the
Ways and Means Committee. Some i'm.
portant changes were made in classification.
with view to meeting the objections OF
the wool growers to the use OF cheap
woods, imported at carpet tcs under the
Mckinley law, for clothing purposes Other
than these, little change was made.
The new classification takes out of the
definition of woods of class three, China
lambs wool, Egyptian and Morocco woods
and one or two other classes which are
declared by the growers to be available
for clothing purposes.
The rates on the three classes are the
same as those OF the Mckinley -law-I1
cents on wool of class |, which in
cludes the merino grades; II cents on
woods of class ,, which includes the
English and Canadian woods, camel'S hair
and alpaca hair; and 32 per cent adj
valOrem on woods of class 3, costing 13
cents or less per pound, and 80 per cent
ad valorem on such woods costing more
than 13 cents per pound.
The para graphs of the Mckinley law

and three times the unwashed duty on
secured wool; imposing 80 per cent per
pound on oils and waste, and the rates for
manufactures of wool upon wool advanced
beyond the condition OF securing, We're all
readopted.

manufactures was not quite completed.

AFTER THE HIGHBINDERS
Consul General Fung Hung Hand S
Visit TO this City.
Consulting With Minister Yang Yu
Respecting the Activity of That
Dreaded Society.

Washington Chinatown, whatlittlc there
is of it, is highly worked up over the advent
in their midst of Fung Hung Hand, the Chi
nese consul general stationed in San Fran
cisco.
His mission in this city is the subject of
numerous sunnises, but it is an undoubted
fact that his principal object is the solu-
tion Of the ''highbinder'' troubles which
are now, and for long time have been,
the cause OF disturbances among the
Chinese in this country. The trouble origi-
mated in the disputes between two fac
tions within the society.
The Celestials in America are almost
without exception members OF the High
binders Association, and most of them
espoused one or the other side. Thus the
fight spread from one city to another, and
inSan francisco, W hich con tains the greatest
number of Chinese and is the center of the
trouble, feeling ran so high that several
murders in the Chinese section resulted
from it.
The authorities Of that city urged Consul
General Hand to endeayor 90 pnt a stop to
these crimes, and as a result he is here in
Washington to consult with Minister Yang
Yu on the subject
Consul General Hand, who is a power
among the coolies, who form by far the
principal portion Of our Chinese popu-
lation, arrived in this city Wednesday
morning. Heis stopping with Tuck Cheon,
a Chinese merchant, at No. 342 Pennsyl-
vania avenue northwest. He had an audi
ence with the Chinese minister Wednes-
day afternoon, but what result there was,
if any, is shrouded In true Oriental mys-
terry.
Leading Cinnamon here, w hen asked bout
Consul General Hand svisit, onl V shook their
heads and answeredthat they knew nothing
whatever about it. 1t is known, no weyer,
that most, if not ali, Of them are active
workers n one factionor the other, and are
anxiously awaiting the result of the consul's
visit.

CONTEST FOR SPBAkERSRIP.

1t now looks as though the contest

Millin and Bailey, with chances favoring
the former, although Bailey is making a
very warm canvass. 1t is a matter that

Some of the old leaders OF the House

organization appears to be largely for

not regard the Speakership nomination

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well. to Know
What Appetite and g God Digestion
Mean, Make Test of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.

Interesting Experience of an Indian
apolis Gentleman.
No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia. People
having it think that their nerves are to
blame and are surprised that they are not
cured by nerve medicine and spring reme-
dies the real seat of the mischief is lost
sight of; the stomach is the organ to be
looked after
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any Of the usual symptoms of stomach weak
hess. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not
in the stomach so much as in nearly every
other organ; in some cases the heart palpi-
tates and is irregular; in others the kidne VS.
are affected: in others the bowels are con-
stipated, with headaches; still others are
troubled with loss of flesh and appetite,
with accumulation of gas, sour risings and
heartburn.
Mr. A w. Sharper, of No 81 Prospect
St, indianapolis Ind, writes as follows:
"A motive of pure gratitude prompts me
to write these few lines regarding the new
and valuable medicine, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. L have been a sufferer from
nervous dyspepsia for the last four years;
have used various patent medicines and
other remedies withoutany favorable result
They sometimes gave temporary relief until
the effects OF the me dicine wore off. 1
attributed this TO my sedentary habits, be-
ing u bookkeeper with little physical exer-
else, but am glad to state that the tablets

have gained in flesh, sleep better, and am

not for notoriety, but is based on actual
fact" Respectfully yours,
