A SURE CURE FOR GROUP.
Twenty-Five Years Constant Use With
out Failure.

The first indication of Group is
hoarseness, and in child subject to
that disease it may be taken as a sure
sign of the approach of an attack.
Following this hoarseness is peculiar
rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough appears, it will prevent
the attack. 1t is used in many thou
sands of homes in this broad land and
never disappoints the anxious moth

tectual. No other preparation can

pany, which is being tried before Judge
Gunster, the presentation of evidence
for the plaintiff was concluded at 2
o'clock p. m. yesterday and ex-Judge
Jessup, of counsel for the company,
began an argument for a compulsory
non-sut. The remainder of the after
noon was taken up with his argument
and the beginning of Mr.. O'Brien's re-
sponse.
The reasons advanced for a non-suit
are contributory negligence on the part
of O'Malley and the claim that he was
an employe of the Traction company
and therefore not entitled to recover
under the co-employes' liability act Of
1868.
1t was contended by ex-Judge Jes-
sup that according to the plaintiff's $
own testimony he knew that a car was
expected from the north at any minute,
yet he went to work in the middle OF
the track. with his back turned to-
wards the direction whence the car
was expected, relying for protection
entirely upon the warning of the motor
man.
In support of the contention that
OMalley was an employe of the Trac-
tion company it was pointed out that
on cross-examination certain ~ the
plaintiffs witnesses testified tat a.
Traction company foreman supervised
and directed the work of repairing the
pavement between the tracks.
At the former trial of the case, Judge
Archibald dismissed this latter reason
from consideration, but granted a nom
suit on the grounds of contributory
negligence. Afterwards the non-suit
was taken off and a re-trial directed.
Mr.. O'Brien's arguments against the
motion for a non-suit will be resumed
the first thing this morning.

INQUIRY LOOKS DUBIOUS.
War Department Investigation May
Not BE Made.

Not he Made.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-The diff
Guilty which is being experienced in the
construction of the proposed commits
sion for the investigation Of the staff
branches Of the army during the war
with Spain has caused some discus
sion in military circles as to the pos
sibility OF a failure of an investigation
by a commission. 1t developed that
there is a decided disapproval among
army officers of the proposition to have
the conduct of the war investigated by
a civil commission. which cannot be
clothed with any judicial authority.
The objection is not on account of any
prejudice against civil authorities in
terfering in military matters, but is
due to the fact that testimony before a
commission not possessing judicial au-
thority would be in a manner volun-
tary and would, 1t is said, put officers
in the attitude of gratuitously giving
testimony which might be damaging
to individuals or to the administration
of the war department. Army officials
say 1t would not be difficult to get all
paign at Santiago, the conduct of med1-
cal, quartermaster and commissary de-
partments. If a tribunal or board was
organized to compel testimony, but that
officers will not jeopardize their own
interests nor put themselves in the at
titude of being voluntary informers
when the composition Of the commits
sion making the inquiry is not such as
to make it compulsory upon them to
tell what they may know. They say
it will be impossible for a commission
not having the power to compel tesu-
mony to get at the facts. Most Off
GERS, they say, will make 1t point OF
honor as we'll as q matter OF self
interest to decline to give testimony of
any Importance unless compelled to. If
the commission could compel testimony
an officer giving testimony that might
be damaging would have the excuse
that he had no choice but to tell what
he knew. In the absence of authority
to compel testimony the officer would
have a right TO conceal or decline to
disclose any facts within his posses
sion.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-President
Mckinley has not yet named a repre-
sentative Of the United States to. at
tend the conference projected by the
czar for the purpose of securing gen.
eral disarmament of the great powers
of the world In the answer returned
by him, however, to the invitation eX-

eign affairs, which was transmitted by
Ambassador Hitchcock, the president
recently expressed his concurrence In
the sentiments so loftily set forth in
the Russian note, and promised, If the
conference is held, to have the United
States represented by some person. AS
yet it is not possible to make a selec-
ton, for it remains for the Russian
government to say whether or not 1t
regards the response made by the gov
ernments invited to participate as suf-
f1cient to warrant the holding Of the
conference 1t is not believed at the
state department that the sending Of
such a delegate would commit the
United States government to any GER
tain line of policy beyond that specifi-
cally set forth In the call, namely: To
engage to limit armament to certain
proportions. In this case our govern
n1ent would not even be called upon
to make a change in it's establishment,
for 1t is believed that with the extra
troops called forward by the war and
still retained In the military service,
the quota that would be permitted the
United States would be far in excess
Of the requirements, supposing it is
fixed in proportion to the least number
Of soldiers that any of the great Euro
