DEMOCRATIC DIssENsIoNs.

Washington. April 1.-THE dissen-
siors Of the recent democratic caucus
were brought into the house today and
were threshed over again. to the evi-
dent ediication OF the republicans.
Bailey. Of Texas. produced a newspa-
per article accusing him Of wearing
Mr.. Reeds collar and acting under Mr.
Reeds suggestion in acquiescing in the
republican policy Of inacton. Denounc-
ng the statement, Bailey repeated the
reasons for his action. Dearmond. in
reply to Bailey. declared that the ver-
dict Of the caucus had been an indorse-
ment Of his policy to fight the repubh-
cans at al points.
The expected alignment OF democrats
by q vote on Dingiey's motion TO ad-
journ until Wednesday was averted,
because all Of the demdcrats opposed
the motion, on account of pingley's s
refusal TO yield for the consideration
of the resolution of inquiry concerning
the policy Of the government In the
Union Pacific foreclosure suits. which
Bland vainly attempted to bring up.
Much feeling was displayed by the
democratic factions and after the house
had adjourned frudtless attempts We're
made to have their troubles considered
In another caucus.

VALUE of IMPORTS.

Through the kindness Of Collector Page,
who had the statistics compiled. every
reader Is enabled today 10 get a full
and comprehensive idea OF the status
uf this city as n commercial center.
and upon the basis of these figures,
representing the business done at a
little fishing town, II can be readily
estimated what the business of As
torla, the future commercial center and
shipping port, will be when she has
secured railroad connection with the
rest Of the world, and has developed
the wonderful natural resources of the
country Immediately surrounding II,
In glancing over the figures of ex-
ports, II Is to be noted that the total
output OF salmon does not include the
large quantities OF that article shipped
from Astoria TO san Francisco locally
and reshipped from the latter port TO
foreign ports, We're such shipments
noted In this custom house the figures
for the export salmon would be largely
swelled.
with such an encouraging lesson
from the past, Il would seem that there
Is every induoement for each and ev-
cry citizen to do and to dare anything
that win upbuild the city and place 1t
In the front ranks of commerce The
railroad will he finished this year,
and will be put In operation. The next
step ls 10 get pay rolls-tin-pail bril-
gades. A number of enterprises are
under consideration. but consideration
is one thing, and accomplishment is
another. To sit idly by and talk does
not build elevators. saw mills, flour
mills, spinning mills, dry docks and
machine ships. There must be talk,
but talk without fruit is 50 much time
wasted Time is money-money is what
the community needs; money for pub
lie works and enlargement OF business
and the building of new enterprises.
Money will come quick enough If AS
torlans spend their time in the right
direction and slice Off a little Of their
property for the foundation of the
great enterprises which are sure to
come sooner or later. 1t is only a ques-
ton as to whether the present gem
erati1n win see the new city or not.

AT MIDNIGHT.

Athens April l7-Midnight-ln spite
of the fact that the official reports in
dicate that firing on the frontier ceased
at midday. a telegram from LariSsa
at o'clock in the evening says that
the firing has continued past o'clock
saturday afternoon. The line of lire
extended from Mount Analipsis to
Klephtika, Gentila, distance equal to
30 minutes march, which the Greeks
promptly occupied. The Greeks cam
nonaded the Turks from the position
at Tamateja in the rear. The cannon
aiding caused much excitement at other
noints. Since noon strong bodies OF
Turks have concentrated in the dlrec-
ton of Mount Anarpsis. At O'Clock

that the Turks will attempt night
attack upon Analipsis, which was the
center point of the battle. Greek REIN

WHEAT WILD.
Great Excitement on the New York

New York. April 17.--There was tre-
mendous excitement In the wheat mar
ket today. Prices advanced four cents
bushel in a little over two hours. The
dealings ran up into the millions. The
shorts we're completely stumped and
their orders today flooded the market
from start to finish.
War news and foreign buying were
the factors which Occasioned the tu-
mutt. The latter was by far the heay-
lest seen In a long time. No limit was
set on the execution OF foreign orders
which read buy wheat" and Il was
bought in at any figure During the
regular session May wheat went from
7314c to 7sc and later on the curb TO
7sI5c . The market was at fever heat
all day and left off at its widest point
The total sales were between six
and seven millions.

special Mesaage to Men

When the desolating fact of impaired vigor comes home to men the force of the blow Is crushing. They know themselves inferior to their fellows, and they shrink from companlonship. Their ambition is gone, and hope with 1t. When hope van- ishes despair takes It's place. All this Is without warrant, for these men can be cured. Dr. Greene, the famous specialist in mems diseases, has found the remedies that restore vitality in men. These rem edies build up and strengthen, and thou sands of men walk the earth to-day who have been permanently restored to vigor- ous manhood by their use Weakness vanishes, hope and ambition return, and the patient Is truly a new man. Dr. Greene's glorious discoveries are the safe- guard of many thousand homes today. His wonderful Nervura alone has made him famous. You may consult Dr. Greene at his office, 35 West 14th Street, New York City, or write to him, and there will be absolutely no charge for consulta- tion or advice in either case, whether you call or write. The system of treatment by mail Is perfect, and Is absolutely con- fldential.
