Robbed the Grave.

A startling incident of which Mr..
John Oliver, of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
II was in most dreadful condition.
NV skin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain contin-
ually in back and sides, no appetite
gradually growing weaker day by day.
Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately, friend advised trying
Electric Bitters, and to my great Joy
and surprise, the first bottle made a
decided improvement continued
their use for three weeks, and am now
a well man. 1 know they saved
my life, and robbed the grave of an
other victim" No one should fail to
try them. Only so cents per bottle

THE NEW IOWA BISHOP.
Episcopal Diocese of Nebraska Opposes
the Confirmation of DIR. Morrison.

Episcopal Diocese of Nebraska Opposes
the CONFIRMATION of DIR. Morrison.
The standing committee of the
Episcopal diocese. of Nebraska has
formally refused its consent to the
canonical Conservation of DR.. Theo-
dore n. Morrison, of Chicago, as
bishop of Iowa. The revolt is against
what is termed the Ubiquitous manner
in which DR.. Greene. of Cedar Rapids,
was defeated for the bishopric. The
specific reasons were practically set
forth in the resolutions adop ted by
the Omaha ministers of the Episcopal
faith shortly after DIR. Greene was
ignored and DIR. Morrison elected by the
Iowa convention. Rev. John Williams,
of Omaha, secretary of the Ministerial
association, at which these resolutions
were adopted, said that that was the
basis of the standing committee re-
fusal to give its consent to the con-
secration of DIR. Morrison. He added
that the conservation could not take
place without that consent, which
will never be given.
The resolutions were adopted after
an animated discussion. They con-
sumed 1000 words, and after reciting
the fact of DIR. Greene's origiLal nom
ination, declared with vigor 3us Ian
guage that his defeat was accom-
plished through mean spirit of poll
tics, and such methods could not be
tolerated by the church with patience.

sold down on general decentralization of the
trade, from cutting of rates. Lead stock was

what appeared to be keen buying. AT the
meeting today in this city of joint tratlc
presidents, 1t is expected something will be
done to stop rate cutting, SO the railroads
will be able to derive full benefit from the
very large business now being done. This
rate-cutting has been a serious drawback
to higher market for granger and trunk
line shares. With rates restored, and coll
