There Is more catarrh in this section OF

was supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced 1t a 10

dies, and by constantly falling to cure
with local treatment pronounced 1t in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment. Halls

No north, no south, we know.
Once more we stand together
To fight the common foe.

NO ESTIMATES MADE.
Congress Has Not Provided for Continu.
ing Deep Waterways Work.


New York, Feb. 9.-The secretary
OF war invites the attention of con-
gress to the desirabllity of continuing
the work now in progress under the
board OF engineers for deep WATERWAYS
during the fiscal year ending June 80,
1879, as no estimate for this work wa,
included in the estimates submitted
heretofore, says the Tribune's Wash
ington correspondent.
In brief, the duties imposed on the
board by congress are to examine and
investigate certain projects for deep
waterways from the head of Lake Su.
perior to tidewater, the Hudson river.
and to prepare plans and estimates of
the cost. The commission in 1897
estimated the cost at not less than
$500, 900.
After careful consideration the board
is of the opinion that $225, 900 can be
protitably expended on the worl, dur
Ing the year ending June 80, 1899. It
therefore recommends that this sum
be appropriated, and says that if a
smaller sum is granted the cost of ad-
ministration and supervision for the
whole work will be increased. The
board says that it will be glad to SUBJ
init full information regarding its work
and plans and sumbit estimates, verbal
or in writing, to the department or to
congress if desired. The resolution
signed by Major Raymond, of the corps
OF engineers, who is president of the
board, is submitted for transmission
by Acting Secretary Meikeljohn. The
amount recommended for the year end
ing June 30, 1899, is $3.50, 900.
Such surveys, examinations and in
vestigations are to be made by the board
OF three engineers designated and ap-
pointed by the president for this pur-
pose in 1897, in compliance with act of
June 4, 1897.

CUBA IN THE SENATE.
Three Resolutions Introduced Favoring
the Insurgents Cause.

Washington, Feb. 10.-Three propo-
sitions, differing materially as to
methods, were presented in the senate
today for the relief of the Cuban insur-
gents. Allen offered as an amendment
to the diplomatic and consular appro-
priation bill resolution recognizing
the belligerency Of the insurgents, and
said he hoped this would afford the
house an opportunity to vote on that
proposition.
Cannon offered resolution urging
the president to notify the kingdom OF
Spain that if it did not recognize the
independence of the Cuban republic by
March 4, 1898. the United States would
recognize the belligerency OF the
Cubans, and within 80 days thereafter
would assert the independence OF the
Cuban republic.
Mason followed with a resolution re-
questing the president to notify Spain
that the Cuban war must cease at once,
and declare the intention of the United
States to restore and maintain peace on
the island of Cuba.
The right OF Hon. Henry W. Corbett
to seat in the senate from Oregon oc-
cupied the senate's attention for two
hours, Chandler speaking in favor OF
seating the claimant.

cover $l12, 800 alleged to be due for
services rendered during the building
OF the canal and locks in the Columbi
river at the cascades. He stated that
in consideration of receiving one-third
of the profits, he advanced money to
the contractors to enable them to COM
plete the work, for which they received
81, 75O, 900 from the government. Ken
nedy alleges that the net profit of the
contractors was $36O,O00, and he is
entitled to one-third OF that amount,

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Trade Conditions in the Leading Cite,
of the World.

Trade Conditions in the Leading Citie,
of the World.
A Liverpool cable says that stocks of
contract wheat there are small. apart
from spring, held presumably for Chi,
cago account.
1t was supposed that the Letter party
had disposed of all the spring wheat
delivered to them in September, but
this would indicate that they still have
some of it on hand. Dornbusch, under
date OF January 81, admits that early
estimates of United Kingdom require
ments were too large, and that for the
last 20 weeks the consumption has
fallen short nearly 10000 quarters, or
100000 bushels per week below the
average OF the two preceding years. In
other words, their theoretical reuuire-
ments for the preceding 30 weeks were
overestimated over II 900, 900 bushels.
1t Is admitted that the working classes
are living more largely on meat and
vegetables than heretofore, but 1t is
also true that cheaper substitutes have
crowded out wheat -four. What is true
OF Great Britain is doubtless true of the
continent. The European visible is
estimated to have decreased in January
1915, 900. Broomhall cables that fairly
large Indian shipments are anticipated,
and the quantity on ocean passage will
still further increase. Argentine ad-
vices are to the effect that the crop is
turning out large one. The temper
OF our market is bearish, also. and the
trade is, if anything, too willing to aid
decline. The weak domestic feature
is the continued large receipts at pri-
mary points and the probability of their
growing temporarily larger instead of
smaller, and giving us an increasing
visible supply when it should be dimin-
ishng. The reason for this undoubt-
edly lies in the fact that farmers. in
the Northwest are SO willing to take
advantage of present high prices that
they are letting go their seed wheat,
anticipating no trouble in getting what
they require later at lower prices.
The present receipts at Minneapolis
are Just about equal to their full grind
ing capacity and there is little possibil.
ity at present of much drain upon their
reserve elevator stocks. particularly in
view of the fact that their output last
week was nearly 100000 barrels in ex-
cess OF the same week last year.

REPEATS HIS CONFESSION.
Belew Freely Admits That He Killed
His Brother and Sister.

Suisun, Cal, Feb. 9.-Frank Belew
has repeated to the district attorney his
confession of the murder of his brother
and sister. He said that before he left
the ranch on the afternoon of the day
he put the poison in the kettle, he
emptied the powder out of its package
and folded it in a newspaper, throwing
the bottle away. He thinks he burned
this paper. He also said:
when l held Susie's hand while
she was dying l did not give her water
or broth to drink or anything else. All
that l gave her was some ice. 1t is not
true that my brother Tom knew any,
thing OF the poisoning. He is entirely
innocent. l am sorry for Tom and
Arthur. but don't see why they want
to worry"
Arthur Belew cried bitterly when he
met his brother in his cell, but the
prisoner seemed stolid.
Tell me with your own lips,
Frank" said Arthur, THAT you have
made this confession. can hardly be-
lieve it,"
That's what l did," was the
answer. "It is true. l killed Susie
and Louis, but l don't really know
why l did it,"
The murderer has expressed desire
to plead guilty. but rather hesitated
about this after visit from his attor-
ney, Reese Clark. The attorney asked
permission to bring physician to the
Jail, and there is little doubt that this
means that insanity has been chosen
as the line of defense that will be
adopted. The case will be brought be-
fore the grand jury on Tuesday.
Under Sheriff Robinson says Watch
man Wells thought Belew tried to COM
NIT suicide last night by putting
handkerchief down this throat. Wells
thinks the attempt was made, but
Belew vigorously denied it.

Revolutionist Element in Niearaeu,
Preparing to Strike "a Blow.
New York, Feb. GA letter dated
San Jose, Costa Rica, a week ago
states that there will soon be revolu
tion in Nicaragua, and asserting that
Costa Rica is backing the movement
says the Panama correspondent of the
Herald. The revolution in Nicaragus
will be a great setback to the work ol
the United States canal commission
Nicaraguan exiles in this city are
jubilant at the outbreak. and predict
that President Zelsya, although success.
ful in crushing in his four years OF
office many revolutions, will have to
fall now.
This movement is result OF fusion
of the conservative party with the dis
sident conservative element. 1t is
learned here that DIR. Adam Cardenas,
who was president of Nicaragua from
1883 to 1887, is at the head of a band
which invaded San Juan del Sur from
the Costa Rican frontier. The junta
refuses at present to disclose its plans,
but says the rebels are we'll supplied
with arms and money. Members of the
junta will probably leave here for Sal
vador on February 10.
Even this country is favorable to the
cause Of the rebels. A large number
of Nicaraguan exiles in Salvador are
ready to join the revolution. Honduras
in return Tor Nicaragua's aid in putting
down the Puerto Cortez uprising,
headed by Enrique Solo, recently, will
support President Zelaya, but he is not
expected to receive any comfort from
Salvador.
