PRESIDENT DECIDES
 0N COMMISSION Names Will Not Be Given to the Public For Sev-
 eraI Days.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The representa- tives of this government on the Paris com mission practically have been agreed upon by the president and his advisers, but it is announced that the names will not be made public for perhaps several days. The president may decide to make change in the commission as it now stands and as ther is no special reason why it should be announced immediat tely it was agreed to defer the announcement of the names until all possible chance for reconsideration had been removed. -
 It is known that Secretary of State Day will be the head of the commission for the United States. He has been identified with all phases of the Cuban question, both prior to and during the war and it is re- garded as peculiarly fitting that he should be quite as intimately identified with the conclusion of the peace negotiations.
 Necessarily, it has been pointed out, Sec retary Day when he enters upon his duties as peace commissioner will resign his seat in the cabinet It has been understood that he desired to relniquish his cabinet position. In fact, he was prevailed upon to assume the duties of seceratry of state Ouly by the lHSlStence or the president, WnO reposes in him the greatest confidence and who particularly desired that Judge Day should remain with him in official capacity until the Cuban question was disposed 5f finally. ~ a'
 The protocol signed today provides that the commission shall meet in Paris not later than October 1. The expectation is that the representatives of this country will leave for France not later than the 18th of September and probably not much before that time. While it is not contem7 plated that the commission will encounter very serious difficulty in reaching an agrees ment the probabilities are that the treaty drafted will not be ready for submission to the senate before the regular session of congress, which will begin on the first Monday of December.
 However should the commission reach a speedy conclusion, a special session of the senate may be called by the president.sTa
 Nothing definite has been done yet about the constitution of the commission, which is to meet in Havana and San Juan to arrange for the evacuation by the Span ish forces of the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico Adjutant General Corbin, whose name has been mentioned in connection with the head of the commission, said tonight that he would not be a member of it. The representatives of the United States will be three in number and all will probably be officers of the army and navy.

JEFFERsONIAN DEMOCRACY.

From the St. Louis Republic.
 Weeks ago, when the dreamers on one side and the towards the other were much in evidence, the Republic spoke for the level-headed American citizen who is neither visionary nor nervous. It is now gratifying to see that the typical Ameri- can citizen has made his good sense a con- trolling force. Porto Rico will be ours, as it ought to be- Cuba will not be annexed in violation of our national pledge or given over to anarchy in violation of our sacred moral obligations. Our course in the Phil ippines will not follow the lust for land, but investigation looking to what we need for naval stations in the east
 The democratic party is rapidly organiz- ing to give expression to the Americanism with which it made history when similar questions were before the nation. It's truly representative leaders are reproduc- ing the statesmanship of Jefferson, Mad- son and Monroe, who labored for years to honorably acquire Louisiana and the Flor idas, that the progress of the young repub- lie might not be impeded
 The democratic party has been the con- structive power in the country, which op- ened with Jefferson's first term. Its Jeff fersonian schooling enables it to see now that the new questions are those of trade expansion; hence it takes up vigorously the Nicaragua canal ana an enlarged navy, realizing that the whole system to be ar ranged is part of the democratic policy of unshackled trade and well-protected mer- chant pioneers.
 Today's democrats are no more afraid of annexing what our progress requires than was Jefferson when, under his authority, Monroe was in Madrid offering to buy the Floridas. And they are no more afraid of limiting annexations to what national pro- gress requires than was Monroe himself when he promulgated foreseeing all it's corollaries, the great doctrine of interna- tiona politics which still bears his name.

 St. Petersburg, Aug. 12.-It is reported here that China has effected provisional compromise with Russia over the New Chang and Pekin-H -Hankow conc ssons. If this be true the agreement amounts to a secret treaty for offensive purposes. China undertakes to consider Russia pref erential in all questions of commercial and internal policy. Russia will support China against demands for an open door, Rus sia acts as financiar for China on all in- ternal issues. China gives Russia prefer ential rates in certain areas. RaiiroaCs built for the joint interest of the two coun- tries will be practically under control of Russia, and she will assist China in the development of her forces. China coop crates as an ally. The secret treaty has been in abeyance since Li Hunt Chang visited the czar.

London, Aug. 13-Ihe morning papers eX- press the growing indigna]on of the coun- try at the position of affairs in China.
 The Daily Graphic says
 If this state of things continues guns will go off themselves"
 The Shanghai correspondent of the Daily Mail who professes to divulge the terms of a long existing secret treaty between China and Russia, says:
 ''It is nothing less than an offensive alli- ance. China undertakes to regard Russia as having a preponderating influence in all questions of commercial and interna- tional politics, while Russia will support China against all open door demands. Russia finances China in internal develop ments, and China grants Russia preferen- tial rates in certain areS, and railways built in the joint interests of the two coun- tries will be under Russia,s practical con trol
 Russia will assist China in developing her military and naval forces, and China will cooperate with Russia as an ally. This treaty has been in abeyance since Lf Hung Chang visited the czar. That it has become operative at the present moment in respect to the Pekin Han-kow and Niu- Chwang contracts is significant"
 If thesDaily Mails version nav = ' --Ss,- ed 1t will explain much that had hitherto been inexplicable in the development of the question. The manager of the Hong Kong and Shanghai affairs in London in the course of an interview yesterday said:
 "I believe the Pekin Han-Kow line, ow- ing to its obstruction and costliness will never be built, Russia merely wishing to keep England out.'
 French Papers Gleeful
  upon the situation, and the newspapers at Berlin and Vienna are at no pains to hide their satisfaction at the discontinue Of England. The continental press regards theproject of an Anglo-American alliance as chimerical. These journals consider that the UnitedStates have had enough of war for the present, and will not care to give Great Britain anything more than moral support in China. Therfore they argue, England is not likely to pick quar- rel with Russia but will content herself with seeking compensation elsewhere.
 special dispatch to Shanghai says:
 "The Russian agents are again intri- guing to obtain control of the Chnese maritime customs department.
 The Pekn correspondent of the Times telegraphing with reference to the Pekin Han-Kow affair says: "The rebuff Is all the more serious because the TspG u Ya-- men gave assurances that the decree con- frming the contract would not be issued until after afurther conference with Sir Claude Mcdonald, the British minister
 The Daily Chronicle in an editorial which reflects the general opinion of the Lon don morning press, comments upon the fact that the Marquis of Salisbury and all the responsible officials are leaving Lon don at such a critical moment It says: "The curtain is deliberately dropped upon a scene of national humiliation and na- tional indignation"

''F'or man to make himself the su-
preme object of life is despicable and

I sible for the ruin they work unthink-

What Does Osteopathy Treat?

The question is often asked: :'What
can be treated by this system of Os-
teopathy:" Any arbitrary list of
diseases that could be given would
fall short Of enumerating what can
be accomplished by Osteopathic treat
ment.
But as suggestion to those seek
ing Information the following may be
given as having been successfully
treated by this method:
DIsLOCAT1ONS.- ALL conditions re-
sulting from dlslocations. due to falls.
strains: Or sudden shocks: or from
weakened conditions following a long
siege OF sickness. Under this head
come the different forms of hip dis
ease, spinal curv atures, and weakness
Of the different joints.
NERVOUS DISEAsEs.-Al abnor-
NAL conditions of the nervous system,
nervous prostration, paralysis, neu.
! ralgla, headaches, chorea, asthma,
etc. Also diseases of the internal
organs, which become inactive for
+! lack of proper nerve force.
MCSCLES.-Abnorm conditions O.
the muscular system, resulting from
colds or La Grippe, as we'll as from
injuries.
! CIRCULAT1ON.-Any diseased con.
dition resulting from impaired Or OBJ

DEAR S1R:-On March p, 1898, we
received from Raymond, Minn., a
specimen of dogs head, the only in
formation about which in the posses
sion of the laboratory was received
from letter from you under date of
March 20. We made inoculations in
to two rabbits at once; one of these
died April 5th. From it two other
rabbits were inoculated and died April
20 and Is respectively. From the one
dying April 25 two others were inocu-
lated, one of which died the following
day from the operation and the other
on May II.
One of the first pair inoculated lived
until April 30. Owing to the some
what prolonged incubation period Of
this rabbit, Prof. Wesbrook did not
think it wise to give a positive dag
nosis of rabies without further expert
mentation, especially since it did not
appear from the information at hand
that there was any haste for a dag
nosis.
These experiments having been
made. it may now be stated positively
that the case was rabies. Prof. Wes-
brook would no doubt have written
some time ago, explaining why he
could not give positive diagnosis
earlier, but for the fact that he has
been sick with typhoid fever for sew
eral weeks. z-. . ! Y. >@S

ious consequences, am :. .
