the purpose of the visit the secretary re-
quested Commander Mark to wait until he
had gone through the important dispatches

speedy attention. and Mr.. Long called in
his private secretary, Mr.. Finney, and die

Captain Clover chief of the Bureau of
Information, and Captain ONeil, chief of
the Bureau of Ordnance, for brief confer

White House. and the report was formally
delivered to the President in the manner
already stated.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR PILES
Safe and Effective I'm Every Form OF
This Common and Annoying Disease.

Many people suffer from piles, because,
after trying the many lotions. salves and
ointments without relief or cure, have come
to the conclusion that a surgical operation
is the only thing left to try and rather than
submit to the shock and risk to life of an
operation, prefer to suffer on. Fortunately.
this is no longer necessary. the Pyramid
Pile Cure. a new preparation. cures every
form of piles without pain. inconvenience
or detention from business.
1t is in the form of suppositories, easily
applied, absolutely free from opium cocaine
or any injurious substance whatever. and
no matter how severe the pain, gives in
slant relief, not by deadening the nerves OF
the parts but rather by its healing. sooth-
ing effect upon the congested membranes.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is the most effec-
tive, the safest and most extensively sold
of any pile cure that has ever been placed
been secured by reason of its extraordinary
merit and this reasonable price at which it
is sold, all druggists selling it at so cents
and 81 per package, and in many cases
single package has been sufficient
A person takes serious chances in neglect
ing a simple case of piles as the trouble
soon becomes deep-seated and chronic, ana
very frequently develops into fatal incur

ulcers.
Any druggist will tell you the Pyramid

reason to believe that the matters under
discussion were of the gravest character
and that it is the opinion of the members
of the administration that never since the

seemed so critical as. to-day and that
trouble can be averted only with great diff
ficulty.
Senator Davis. chairman of the commit
tee on foreign relations, had brief inter-
view with Assistant Secretary Roosevelt to-

its conclusion. Senator Davis said that it
was his understanding that the Maine re-
port would be sent to Congress next Mon
day. but it's transmission might be delayed
until Tuesday. AS to the disposition to bo
made of it by the Senate, he said that in
all probability, after the reading of the
letter or message of transmittal, it would
be referred to the committee on foreign re-
lations and ordered printed. Any senator,
however, might demand the reading of the
report in the Senate, and If it should prove
to be not too long that course might be
pursued on account of the intense interest
in it's contents. He was decidedly of opinion
that there would be no debate on 1t until 1t
had been considered by the foreign relations
committee. The expression OF an opinion
as to the action of either the committee
would be premature at this time. in Sena-
tor Daviss judgment, as only those who
had read the report had any definite idea OF
the findings of the court of inquiry and even
then might not be prepared to say what
course it would be most desirable and polite
pursue.
