icy--A Greek Victory at

the new premier and minister of ma

believed that all serious danger of in
ternal disorders is removed.

London, April 30.-The Daily Tele-
graphs correspondent at Athens had
an interview with NJ. Rail-, during
which the Greek statesman outlined his
policy. NJ. Rail- said: MY policy will
consist in the reorganization of the
army, whose recuperative resources are
practically inexhaustible, and the re-
establishment of order, together with a
satisfactory solution of our foreign re-
laticns. We refuse to accept a mandate
from the king or from the chamber.
We must have an absolute free hand"

The voice OF Greece Apparently stiii
for War.


London, May 4.-The chief points OF
interest in the situation are: First. that
the decision of the ministers who have
returned from the Greek frontier seems
10 be in favor of a continuance of the
war, and, second, that fighting con-
tinued almost necessarily al Velestino
from last Tuesday until Sunday, with
the result that Gen. Smolensl1i has been
prevented from actually assuming his
new duties as chief of staff. AS fur
Their result, the Greeks at Nelestino have
managed 10 retain their positions, but
they are too much satigued TO follow up
their success. Altogether IA officers
have been recalled from Crete TO be sent
on to Thessaly. and this also is proof
of the intention OF the new cabinet to
continue the war The movement is
actuated by necessity. All the best off,
GERS are being sent to the front, nor is
there any intention yet displayed 20
evacuate Crete.

of Committees.
Washington, May 4.-"The issue was
made," as Speaker Reed put it in the
house Monday, on the speakers policy
of postponing the appointment OF COM
mittees. Mr.. Simpson (pop., Kan.)
brought il on by another attack upon
the speaker which moved Mr. Reed 20
challenge him to propose n resolution
instructing the speaker to appoint the
committees. The Kansan evaded this
challenge, but Mr.. Lewis, new demo-
cratic member from Washington, took
up the gauntlet which the speaker had
thrown down and moved the adoption
OF a resolution of the tenor suggested
by Mr.. Reed. Then Mr.. Fleming (dem.,
La offered n substitute embodying
the Instructions in different terms and
Mr.. Dingley, the republican leader, TO
make the issue plain, as he said, pre-
sented another substitute directing the
speaker to appoint the committees ''im-
mediately." When the vote was taken
on the proposition the speaker was sus-
tanned by practically the solid vote of
his party, assisted by 80 democrats un-
der the leadership of Mr.. Bailey. The
resolution was defeated, yeas, 81; nays,

COMMON PLEAS COURT.
Trying to Fix the Ownership of the
Goods of A. w. Juriscll-TartTey=
Hull Suit Still on Trial.

The ownership Of the stock of A, w.
Jurisch's sporting goods store in the
Hotel Jermyn building was the only
question introduced in common pleas
yesterday. Mrs. Ellen May Cokely and
H. Lillian Jurisch, sisters of the store
Keeper, and the Sterling Cycle COM
pany, of Chicago, the principal cred
itor, are the rival claimants.
In the fall of 1896 the Cycle COM
pany issued an execution against Jur-
isch and directed the sheriff to sell the
stock of the store. Mrs. Cokely and
Miss Jurisch arrested the SALE alleg-
ing that they and not their brother
were the owners of the store. Court
framed a suit with the Cycle COM
pany as defendant and directed the
parties to maintain or relinquish their
respective claims.
The plaintiffs allege that the broth
er borrowed $4,000 from them in 1894
when he started in business. During
the summer Of 1896 he came to them
and saying he felt he was about to
fail advised them to take steps to
protect their interests. This they at
once did by selling him out at con-
stables sale. They bought in the stock
charge as manager.
The Cvcle company claims that the
constable's sale was not bona fide: that
it was conducted in a secret manner,
and that its only purpose, was to de-
feat the just creditors. AS evidence
of this Harry Comfy, reporter for Dun's
Mercantile Agency, was put on the
stand to show that Jurisch, on June
., 1896, made a statement of his finan-
cial standing, and that he did not
then say anything about owing money
to his sisters.
The case occupied nearly the whole
day, and was still on at adjournment
1t was tried once before but the jury
could not come to an agreement.
The Hartley-Hull ejectment suit,
now undergoing its sixth trial, will
probably be finished today. Nearly all
of yesterday was occupied by the plain
tiff's attorneys endeavoring to get in
on rebuttal evidence to show that the
transfer from NJ. j. Robinson to Sias
Hartley was made in good faith and
not to protect the property in ques-
tion against the Robinson's Judgment
note now in possession of the defend
ants.
Judge Mcclure ruled that this testi-
mony should have been offered on di-
rect examination but Notwithstanding
this, eX-Judge Jessup, the plaintiffs
attorney, called all his witnesses, one
after the other, and had record made
of their testimony being refused. This
would indicate that the supreme court
will have another go at this much
tried case.
In the case of Dr. w a. Mcdowell
against William p. Joyce the jury yes

plaintiff.

SUIT AGAINST GEORGE W. POTTER.
Calvin Freeman, OF Dunmore Is the
Plaintiff

George w. Potter, Of Dunmore, who
came prominently before the public
several years ago i'm case against
the Scranton Traction company, was
made defendant in civil suit before
Alderman Wright yesterday. in which
Calvin Freeman. also Of Dunmore,
sought to recover $12O due him, it was
claimed, for six months pay as a keep
or of Potter's farm in Susquehanna
county.
It APPEARS that Potter made a prop
osition that Freeman and his wife take
care of the farm at a pay of $50 per
month with other benefits. Before ac-
ccpting the proposition the Freemans,
II is claimed, agreed to take the posi-
tion for no less than six months time.
This was sworn to at the hearing yes
terday morning
After spending only a few days on
the farm misunderstanding arose
and the Freemans We're discharge d.
Hence the suit to recover the full paw.
Alderman Wright reserved his decis-
ion until this morning. Attorney John
II. Martin reprs sented the plaintiff and
Attorney George Watson on the de-
fendant's side.

SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A SIMPLE HARMLESS REMEDY.
Yet II Cures tho Worst Cases of Dys-
pepsia and Indigestion.

DIR. Jennison, who has made a life
study of stomach troubles, says: All
forms of Indigestion really amount to
the same thing, that is, failure to COM
pletely digest the food eaten; no mat
ter whether the trouble is acid dys-
pepsia or sour stomach, belching of
wind, nervous dyspepsia or loss of flesh
ana appetite; a person will not have
any OF them If the stomach can be in
duced by any natural, harmless way,
to thoroughly digest what is eaten, and
this can be done by a simple remedy
which / have tested in hundreds of
aggravated cases with complete sue
cess. The remedy is a combination of
fruit and vegetable essence, pure as
ceptic pepsin and golden seal put up
in the form of pleasant tasting tablets
and sold by druggists under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. one or
two of these tablets should be taken
after meals and allowed to dissolve in
the mouth and mlngling with the food
in the stomach, digests it completely
before it has time to ferment, decay
and sour
On actual experiment one grain of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
''ii 'hOuSuilu 81 AIMS Vi ulCi', NSSo
and similar wholesome foods.
1t is safe to say, if this wholesome
remedy was better known, by people
generally. it would be a national bless
ing. as we are a nation of dyspeptics
and nine-tenths of all diseases owe
their origin to imperfect digestion and
nutrition.
