NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
Project Taken Up by IL Number of
Representative Women.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The Oft
agitated question of establishing in the
city of Washington a great national
university on the lines suggested by
President Washington has taken more
definite form than in the past, and
number of representative American
women have taken hold of the project
with a determination to push it to
successful conclusion if possible. They
have started out in a practical man
ner by seeking to raise the first S23O,OOO
necessary for the erection of an adj
ministration building to form the
nucleus to the university and hope to
Law the corner stone on Feb %, 1899.
The purpose, in the interim, is to
urge the matter 10 women all over the
country. They intend likewise to inter-
est all the school children in the work.
AS a first step for awakening interest
in the undertaking they will assemble
in convention in Washington on Dec.
IA to decide on ways and means for
arousing public sentiment Among
those who have initiated the movement
to fulfill Washington's wish are Mrs
Phoebe Hearst, of this city; Mrs. Ellen
A Richardson, Of Boston; Mrs. Clara
r. Anthony, Miss Rachel Rowland,
Miss Louise Thicker and Mrs. Edmund
Anthony Jr, of Massachusetts; Mrs l.

cision to the national court and the
sentence was altered, he being SEN
fenced to one years seclusion and a
fine Of 500 francs. A further appeal
was pending, when the German minis
ter interfered without invitation, and
it is claimed, forced his way into the
private apartments of Tiresias Simon
Sam, the president Of the Haytian re-
public, and in rude and peremptory
manner demanded the release of Lued-
ers with an apology to the German
government, an indemnity of $1,000 a
day for the time he had been in the
prison, the immediate trial of the police
who arrested him, and the dismissal of
the judges who sentenced him. If the
prisoner were not released within
twenty-four hours the indemnity was
to be $4,000 for every day afterward.
Acting entirely upon his own Volt
ton, Mr. Powell. the United States
minister addressed letters to the Hay
tan minister for foreign affairs re-
questing that Mr.. Lueders be released.

time officially expelled him from the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The official
report of the correspondence in regard
to the bfmetallic proposals of the Unit
ed States monetary commission to the
government of Great Britain, together
with the report of the proceedings at
the conference of the British premier,
the secretary of state for India, the
first lord of the treasury and the chan
cellOr of the exchequer with the French
ambassador and our commissioners, has
reached this country. 1t fully confirms
the reports cabled to the Associated
Press on Oct. q and p. The negotia-
tons fell through, Notwithstanding the
expressed Willingness of the French
government to open its minis, owing to
the rejection by the British govern
ment of the proposition to again open
the. Indian minis to the free coinage
of silver None of the other PROPOSE
lions We're replied to because that one
of the most important concessions re-
uuested of Great Britain could not be
acceded to. The government of Great
Britain in making her answer deferred
to the wishes of the government of In
dia, to which the proposal was referred,
and the. reply of the government of
India therefore, is the most important
communication in the correspondence.
1t is a lengthy document, in which the
advantages pro and con to India are
argued, and a very strong case from
their standpoint is made out in favor
of the rejection of the proposal. The

the attendant paralysis of trade, at

ATLANTIC STORM SWEPT.
French Liner La GascOSne Roughly
Tossed by the Waves.


NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-The big
French liner La Gascogne, upon reach
ing this port, brought ample evidence
of the severe storm that prevailed
upon the ocean last week. A less
staunch ship might have had a sadder
tale to relate. The storm began with
all it's fury, Commander Baudelon said,
on the vessels first day out. From
Nov. until Sandy Hook lightship
was sighted, there was a succession
of west and southwesterly gales with
tremendous seas. Not a moment dur
ing the trip was passenger safe on
deck, and few there were who ventured
beyond the securely barred iron doors.
The uninitiated among the passengers
suffered greatly, keeping to their rooms
all the way across. Towering waves
boarded the big steamer almost con-
tinuously. All the openings were
boarded up as far as possible, and port
holes could not be opened for a mo-
ment
The climax, but by no means the end
of the storm, came on Thursday morn
ing. Eight bells in the morning watch
had Just been sounded The sea had
been running phenomenally high, and
the vessel was pitching and laboring
badly Suddenly there was a shock
that felt as if the ship had struck
another giantess of the sea. The next
instant there was a deluge OF water
pouring into the dining saloon, sending
the thoroughly alarmed passengers
scurrying cut into the companionways.
The vessel had been struck by huge
mass of water which buried her bows
and whole forward section under water,
stopping her progress for the time.
The wave came over the starboard

side. According to the chief officer.
there We're at least 5000 tons of water
in the miniature tidal wave. 1t struck
the deckhouse, which is built of iron,
nearly two inches thick The long
front iron plates were smashed in, the
iron ratings torn off the bridge, for
ward deck fittings unfastened, the bell
broken, big stretches OF canvas car
ried away, and one of the massive iron
ventilators ripped from the deck and
swept into the sea. Through the ven
tilator opening immense quantities of
water rushed, finding it's way into the
dining room. 1t fell upon the heads of
a dozen or more men and womer who
CHANGED to be beneath. There was
much excitement aboard for a time,
but the officers quickly assured every
body that there was positively no dan
ger. The water from the great wave
swept the entire ship, running down
the decks Ikea mill race.
Other steamships which reached here
report hard fighting with the waves.
Among them was the Hamburg Ameri-
can liner California. There were 155
immigrants in the steerage, and the
officers had a lively time trying to al
lay their fears and navigate the vessel
at the same time. They had to be

in India, concurrently with the increase
etc. are advanced, but the most potent
reason urged against the proposition
is that the burden of failure, if failure
should come from the experiment for
the re-establishment of bimetallism by
France and the United States, must in
evitably fall on India.
Both the United States and France,
the reply argues, with their supply of
gold to a greater or less extent pro-
tect themselves If the experiment did
not succeed. In other words the In
dian government as a preliminary
proposition, declared that it could not
risk the success of the suggested meas
ures. This definite and absolute re-
lection of the proposal was fully set
forth in the cable reports of the cor
respOndence, but the document con-
tains a reservation which would seem
to indicate that if the scope of the
proposed experiment were sufficiently
brOadened India might be willing, at
least to reconsider her refusal. That
paragraph in Lord Elgin's letter is as
follows: I'VE note that the proposals
of the government of France and the
United States are subject to the pro-
visO that they are satisfied that they
VIII receive assistance from other pow
ers in increasing the demands for sill
yer. We believe that limited in
crease of the quantity of silver used
as currency will exercise a very trifing
influence, if any, in raising the gold
price of silver, and that the only as
sistance from other powers which can
be of any real value would be the
addition of other countries to the
bimetallic union of France and the
United States. If, however, assurances
of really substantial cooperation
should be secured from other countries,
we shall be glad to learn the exact ma
ture of the assurance, and we shall
then consider whether the promised CO.
operation changed the conditions of
the problem or adds materially to the
chances of success"

THEY RIDICULE 1T.
Many People RidicuIe the Idea of
an Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
and stomach Troubles.
RidieuIe, However, Is Not Argument
and Facts Are Stubborn
Things.

RidicuIe, However, Is Not Argument
and Facts Are Stubborn
Things.
Stomach troubles are so common and
in many cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be a radical,
permanent cure for dyspepsia and in
digestion. Many such pride themselves
on their acuteness in never being hum
plugged, especially on medicines.
This fear of being humbugged may
be carried too far; so far, in fact, that
many persons suffer for years with
weak digestion rather than risk lit
tie time and money in faithfully testing
the claims of a preparation so reliable
and universally used as Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine, no secret is
made of their ingredients, but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di-
gestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin,
the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
nuth, hydrastic and nux. They are not
cathartic, neither do they act power
fully on any organ, but they cure in
digestion on the common sense plan
of digesting the food eaten promptly,
thoroughly before it has time to fer
ment, sour and cause the mischief. This
is the only secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure indigestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely upon
the bowels, whereas the whole trouble
is really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken
after meals, digest the food. That is
all there is to it. Food not digested or
half digested is poison as it creates gas,
acidity, headaches. palpitation of the
heart, loss of flesh and appetite, and
many other troubles which are often
called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists every
where at so cents per package. Ad-
dress Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich, for
book on stomach diseases or ask your
druggist for it.

Germany intends to make a naval
demonstration in Haytian waters.
Following is the Haytian side of the
dispute: The dispute arose out of the
Imprisonment of Herr Emile Lueders,
the son of a German, who married a
Haytian woman. Up to a short time
ago, Lueders was a Haytian citizen,

which are mentioned four duels, he

his nationality, and registered his name
