There has never been anything that have
taken that has relieved the Dyspepsia from
which 1 have suffered for ten years except
the new remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. Since taking them 1 have had no
distress at ali after eating and again after
long years can sleep well. Rev. T. l. Bell,

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is a remark
able remedy. not only because 1t is a certain
cure for all forms of Indigestion but be-
cause it seems to act as thoroughly in old
chronic cases of dyspepsia as well as in
mild attacks of indigestion or biliousness
A person has dyspepsia simply because the
stomach is overworked. all it wants is
harmless, vegetable remedy to digest the
food and thus give II the much needed rest.
This is the secret of the success OF this
peculiar remedy. No matter how weak or

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets viii digest the
Iood whether the stomach works or not.
New life and energy Is given not only 10 the

A STUBBORN WITNESS.
Standard Oil Company's Secretary Re-
fuses to Answer Questions.

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 15-Another un-
successful attempt was made by Attorney
General Monnett to-day to have F. 3.
Squire, secretary of the Standard Oil Com
pany, and his attorney, Virgil p. Kline.
certified to the Supreme Court for contempt
for refusal to answer certain questions in
the investigation of the Standard Oil Com
pany. Mr.. Squire was kept on the witness
stand all forenoon and was closely examined
by Mr.. Monnett, who was endeavoring to
bring out the relation that exists between
the Standard and the Buckeye Pipeline
Company. the Solar and Ohio Oil Companies
and the Northwestern Ohio Natural Gas
Company. Mr.. Squire claimed he was un-
able to answer many of the questions that
were asked, and many others We're objected
to by his attorney, Mr. Kline. Some oi the
objections We're overruled by Master COM
missioner Brinsmade and others were Sus-
tained. During the examination many live
ly tits took place between Mr. Monnett and
Mr. Kline. Mr.. Monnett finally asked that
the commissioner cite both Mr.. Squire and
Mr.. Kline to the Supreme Court for con-
tempt, but Colonel Brinsmade refused to
comply with the request.

Speech by Joseph Chamberlain on An
of Turks Celebrated in Crete.

PEKING, Nov 15.-Li Hung Chang has
memorialized the dowager Empress, beg
ging to be excused from the appointment
to consult with the Viceroy Of the province
Of Shan-Tung as to the steps to be taken
to prevent any further overfiowing of the
Yellow river, pleading age and infrmity
as his excuse. He had q special audience on
the subject with the dowager Empress to-
day. and the latter. while thanking him for
Eis services to the throne, requested the
Chinese statesman to proceed to the Yellow
river without delay. In some quarters it is
believed Ii Hung Chang's appointment is
due to the enmity of Yung Lu. who replaced
Ii Hung Chang in the Tsung Ii Yamen
early in September and to the animosity of
Kang Vi, the head of the council of state.
On the occasion of her birthday next week
the dowager Empress will receive the
ladies of the diplomatic body, in accord

JEALOUS BUT MISTAKEN.
Statements of "a Medical Board Official
Considered and Corrected.

"As 1 am the only osteopath in the city
1 am the person to whom an official of the
State Medical Board of Examination and
Registration had reference in a statement
in yesterdays Journal" said DIR. H. L..
Jones to a Journal reporter yesterday.
There are several misstatements in the
article" he continued, which l would like
to correct. 1t says that + am the only os-
teopath practicing in Indiana there are
twelve Not one has been prevented from
practicing. In Lafayette a suit was brought
against one before a justice of the peace.
The officers OF the Tippecanoe County Med
ical Society sent out circular to the mem
bers urging them to be present at the trial.
Wasn't this a strange performance? He
was found guilty and appealed to the Cir
cult Court, where the trial is pending. An
other suit was brought against an osteo-
path in Fort Wayne. 1t was tried before a
jury resulting in a mistrial, seven jurors
being for acquittal and five for conviction.
THE officer of the board" continued DR..
Jones, says the practice of osteopathy is
permitted in but one State. AS a matter CT
fact the States Of Iowa, Michigan, Mis-
souri,, Vermont and South Dakota distinctly
authorize the practice of osteopathy: in two
other States the legislatures passed, but
governors vetoed, such bills. and the prac-
tice IS permitted in Pennsylvania"

FIRE At THE WILLOUGHBY.
Damage to the Top Floor and the
Roof.

AT 1870 o'clock this morning flames burst
through the roof of the Willoughby build
ing, on the west side of Meridian street, mid
way between Ohio street and New York
street. The fire department arrived prompt
ly enough, but it was slow work getting at
the fire. After five or ten minutes while
the flames ate steadily into the building, the
extension ladder was elevated to the roof
of the building from the front and a pipe
was dragged up. Another pipe was hauled
up by rope to the third-sJory windows,
and still another was taken up the stairway.
Hose had been laid in tangled piles on the
street, and when the water was turned on
it burst in several places, and the street
became the scene of miniature geysers. A
few minutes of a steady flow of water on
the fire crowned it out, but by that time
the roof and most of the rooms on the top
floor of the building were damaged and
those on the next floor below will have TO
be renovated.

MANCHESTER, Nov. 15.-At the national
Liberal-Unionist conference here to-day
Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state for
the colonies. made his first public speech
since his return from the United States.
Mr.. Chamberlain, who was much more ex-
plicit on the subject of Anglo-French rela-
tions than any of his colleagues In the Cab
met has been, said it was the hope of every
friend of peace that the French withdrawal
from Fashoda is indicative of their accept
ance of the principle Of British control of
the whole valley of the Nile, regarding
which there cannot be any discussion what
ever"
Going 20 recite series of unfriendly
acts perpetrated by France in various quar-
ters of the globe during the last ten or
nIteen years., he said, If better relations
are 10 be established il will be necessary for
French politicians 10 abandon tactics whose
OBJECT has been to hamper and emparrasS
British policy even in quarters where the
french nave no interest to protect. l refer
especially to Newfoundland, where, despite
the fact that the French fishery interests
nave declined to a comparatively insignifi-
cant point, the demands OF the French have
continually increased and their interference
with the development of the colony has in
creased. AT the present moment Newfound-
land is seriously suffering from an inter-

After referring to the Thorough and COM
plete sympathy SO noticeable between the
motherland and her colonies" Mr.. Cham
berlain continued as follows: What is of

amid cheers invoked divine blessings upon
the protecting powers who have freed Crete
from Turkish rule. The Christians are be-

that Chalkir Pasha, the last Turkish COM
mander to leave Crete, refused at the last
moment to allow the transport to sail.
claiming that he must wait until he re-
ceived decisive orders from the Turkish
government. Thereupon Admiral Poller.

THE EARTH TO BE MEASURED
Several Important Scientific Problems
to He Solved.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-The work of
the International Geodetic Association at
it's Stuttgart conference last month, when
is expected to bear fruit of far-reaching inn
portance to the scientific world, is an
nounced by Mr.. E. d. Preston, of the
United States coast and geodetic survey,
who represented this government there and
who has Just returned to Washington. Lit
tie publicity was given the proceedings of
the conference, but an interesting report
now is to be made by Mr.. Preston The
prime object of the conference, which was In
session Oct to - was the measurement
of the earth, and action was taken for the
measurement of an arc at the equator.
This. taken in conjunction with the meas
urement Of an arc near the pole, now under
way by the Swedes and Russians, will
throw now light on the flattening of the
earth The comparison of the two measure
ments will make it possible to determine
how much shorter the polar diameter is
than the equatorial, a knowledge OF which
is important both in the making of maps
of great extent and the solution of many
astronomical problems.
Ever since it was discovered some ten
years ago that the latitudes of all places
on the earth are subject to a small periodic
change. the scientific world has gwen more
or less attention to the subject. Now the
international association has determined to
go to the bottom of the matter and has
planned to take up the work OF continuous
latitude observations at six stations encir-
cling the globe near the thirty-ninth degree
of north latitude This parallel passes lit
tie north of Washington and San Francisco,
through Cincinnati and crosses Japan,
Turkestan and Italy. In each one of the
countries named an observatory will be
erected. The three stations in the United
States VIII be at GaitherSburg, Md,
Ukaih. Cal, and, of course. at Cincinnati,

nomioal observatory which has been estab-
lished there for many years; me work
will begin i'm the summer of 1899, and Is now
provided for during a period of five years
1t is altogether probable, however. that in
order to completely determine the secular
motion of the pole much more time will be
required and a continuation OF the observa-
tions for at least twenty or thirty years
may be counted on. The total annual cost

me out? Is not tnat board willing that /

intelligent people should have the right to
obtain any treatment for disease which
does not involve the use of deadly drugs.
1t seems to me that man of the sense OF
Senator Foraker, of Ohio. whose crippled
son has been cured by osteopathy ought
to be credited with sufficient intelligence 10
decide what treatment is best for his fam
lily. 1t seems to me that fifty intelligent
men and women, whose names and indorse-
ments / can get. ought to be permitted TO
choose the treatment they shall receive for
bodily ills, particularly after a large part
of them have been given up incurable.
Last winter a bill similar TO what 1t was
intended the law in this State should be
was before committee OF the Massachu-
setts Legislature. Mr.. William Jones, pro-
fessor of anatomy and physiology In Har-
ward for years and now professor OF mem
tai pathology in that institution, went be-
fore the committee to denounce the bill.
This representative of the Massachusetts
Medical Society said: Both as TO principle
and practice. our knowledge Is deplorably
imperfect. The whole face of medicine
changes unexpectedly from one generation
to another in consequence OF widening ex-
perience, and we look back with n mixture
of amusement and sorrow at the practice
of our grandfathers, so we cannot be sure
how large portion of our present practice
will awaken similar feelings in posterity.
That bill was defeated as a doctors trust,
because of such opposition. Why cannot
the learned regular physicians be as wise
and tolerant as the Harvard professor"
