ON An OrgnnizntIon.


Atlanta. Ga. April 22.-The South

May l. will take the place OF the South
ern States Freight Association. Repre-
sentatives of all the leading roads in the

ton. 1t will become effective April 2S.

sented voted subject to the approval OF

ment before its adoption. The only one

article which made II incumbent on the
chairman to cooperate with the inter-
state and state commissions in enforcing

Topeka, Kan, April 1S.-Much additional
evidence of boodling was developed at to-
days session of the legislative bribery in
vestigation committee. A law giving the
county power to imprison witnesses, who
refuse to answer questions was unearthed
and used with effect.
E. c. Weilep, speaker pro. tenn. of the
Legislature, stated that he had noticed
several members making mysterious Wis
its to the second floor of his hotel He
accosted Mr.. Davis, of Wilson county,
as he assembled the stairs one day, and
Mr. Davis told him he had been invited
to support the Hackney amendment, and
that if he should do so there was some
money in it for him. Mr.. Davis said he
had declined the offer He said that
Frank Strickland of Wyandotte county

witness said, was reputed to be handled
by B. P. Waggoner, who had rooms on
the second floor.
Eben Mccarthy, a House page, said that
he had carried notes from members of the
House to man named Wilson. He read
some of the notes. One was to Represen-
tative Foley, in which the witness declared,

BROOME'S INSURANCE BILL oRDEn-
ED ENGROSSED.

II Makes the Full Amount of Insur-
ance the Measure of Value in Set
thing LOsses-Its Final Passage to
BE Bitterly Opposed by the Insur-
ance Men-Mr. Pope Introduces a
Bill Making 1t a MisdemeanOr For
an EmpIOye to Surrender Any
Rights of Citizenship.
Tallahassee, Fla, April 1S-The chief
feature of the day in both houses was
Senator Broomes old bill making the full
amount of insurance the measure of dam
age in case of loss by fire. The bill came
up on second reading and was ordered en-
crossed in both houses.
The debate in the Senate was long and
spirited. Mr.. Hartridge offered an amend
ment practically nullifying the purpose of
the measure, but it was opposed by
Messrs. Dougherty and Reeves, the
amendment being finally lost. This bill
is a legacy from last session. and its final
passage will be bitterly opposed by the
insurance men of the state.
Among the bills introduced in the House
was one by Mr.. Pope making county COM

penalty for coercion of employees; also one
making it a misdemeanor for an employe
to surrender any rights of citizenship; also
a bill Incorporating the driving park and
state fair association. This is the OLD
jockey club bill in a new dress, and some
what toned down
Mr.. Pope also introduced a bill fixing the
salary of county solicitors at $500, with
out fees
Mr.. Christie introduced a bill in the in
terest of labor unions, for the protection
Of persons using union labels.
Bills were introduced in the Senate as
follows:
BY Mr.. Carson, to regulate railroad
schedules and providing for a railroad
commission.
BY Mr.. Chipley, making an appropria-
ton covering the deficiency in the state
census appropriation for 1895.
By Mr.. Dimmick, prohibiting fishing in
Lake Worth; also one extending the time
of completion of the Florida East Coast
canal.
By Mr. Adams. a congressional memo
rial urging popular election for United
States senator's.
At the afternoon session of the Senate
Mr.. Chipley moved the appointment of
a committee of five to draft resolutions in
honor of the late Senator w. Naylor
Thompson. and in a speech rendered touch
ing tribute to the memory of his deceased
colleague.
The committee on railroads and tele-
graphs reported favorably on Mr.. Dim
mick's bill for an extension of the time
for the completion of the East Coast ca
nal.
The House committee on privileges and
elections will probably report tomorrow
on the St, Johns county election case, in
which Burns, dem, contests the seat of
Carter, rep. Mr.. Burns will probably be
seated.
Petitions for and against a senatorial
caucus have been circulated. but the sit
uatlon is decidedly mixed. 1t is probable,
however. that a general caucus will be
held Thursday night.

fectuaI Cure For II.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloa1-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, causing pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing; headaches. tickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played out, languid
feeling
There Is often foul taste in the mouth,

stomach could be seen IL would show a
Shiny, inhamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found In a treatment which
causes the food to be readily, thoroughly
digested before It has time to ferment
and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces

and healthy digestion is the one neces-
sary thing to do and when normal diges-
ton Is secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared.
