quest of the Secretary of State, Acting
Attorney General Richards has given
an opinion on the question of the au-
thority of the President in the absence
of legislation to control the landing OF
foreign telegraphic cables. The ques-
ton was raised by the action of the
French Gable Company in landing a
cable at Cape Cod without the express
permission Of Congress or the Presi-
dent. Mr.. Richards conclusions are
as follows:
THAT the President has the power, in
the absence of legislative enactment, to
control the landing of foreign subma-
rine cables. He may either prevent
the landing, if the rights intrusted to
his care so demand, or permit 1t on con-
ditions which protect the interests OF
this Government and its citizens; and
if a landing has been effected without
the consent of or against the protest
of this Government, respect for It's
rights and compliance with its terms
may be forced by applying the prohibl-
ton to the operation of the line, unless
the necessary conditions are accepted
and observed"

QUARANTINE REGULATIONS.
Substitute Bill Reported by the
Senate Committee.

WASHINGTON Jan. 49, - Senator
Vest, from the Committee on Quaran-
tine and Public Health to-day reported
a substitute for Caffery's bill providing
regulations for quarantine.
The bill as reported practically places
all matters pertaining to the quaran-
tine service in the control of the Fed
eral Government
Another provision is as follows:
Whenever yellow fever, cholera
plague or typhus fever has passed the
quarantines of the United States. or
in any manner gained entrance within
the limits Of any State or Territory. the
quarantine regulations OF the United
States for the purpose of preventing
the spread of disease from one State
10 another shall be supreme and have
precedence of State or municipal laws,
rules or regulations. and the President
Is authorized TO enforce the same and
control the movements of vessels, rail-
way trains, vehicles or persons so as to
prevent those diseases from spreading
from one State to another, and to pre-
vent unnecessary restrictions upon in
terstate commerce.
The bill is quite complete quaran-
tine code. Heavy penalties are pro-
vided for the violation of its provisions.

His Grievance.

'Mad, sir! Madl I'm mad clear
through"
1t was evident to the lawyer that he
was on the verge of securing good
SANDER or personal damage suit, and ne
invited the stranger to be seated.
"Mad!" repeated the stranger. ''Tm
mad enough to eat Bessemer steel; I'm
mad enough to put this case through If
it costs me all of S15."

one has wronged you.'
''Wronged mel" roared the stranger.
Hes made monkey of mel I tell you,
sir, he's made me look like a blooming
idiot. He's given the public a wrong
impression of my mental strength and
the educational advantages of my youth
and / want to make him sweat for it,
''Tell me about it," said the lawyer,
land we will see what can be done"
Tt all hinges on my middle name,
explained the stranger, "and that name
'Xerxses.' Now, l am not prepared to
deny that that is more or less of fool
name for any one to carry around at
this period Of the worlds history, but
1 can't see that l am to blame for it.
Certainly not" asserted the lawyer.
Just because my parents were fool
ish enough to give me that kind of a
name is no reason why every one meet
should think he has a license to have
fun with me, and I am entitled to the
protection of the law, as figure it"
Most assuredly."
''Then it's cinch I'll get big dam
ages" said the stranger, with every evil
dence of satisfaction at the prospect.
You see, my full name is John XerXses
Jones' but, of course, 1 don't use the
middle name"
'Of course not"
'1 just write it John x. Jones' and
that's the way put it on big petition
that is being circulated"
What has that to do with your suit
for damages?''
why, the big, numbering idiot
want to sue came along and wrote his
above the 'X' and mark below it, and
I'm either going to have him arrested
or he's going to have case of assault
and battery against me."-Chicago Post.

AKE:

A man whose hands tremble
and whose voice is weak and
you will find that he is but hall
man as a rule. His knees
shake, too, and he is but a weak
ling. He sees spots before his
eyes and has no confidence i'll
himself. He has in some way
abused the privileges which are
his by right. And he possessed
them once. 1t is for cases OF this
sort that "Hudyan' is given by
the grand doctors OF the Hudson
Institute. "Hudyan" brings to
weak men full vitality and grand
manly vigor. From being puny
a man becomes full OF fire and
big and great manhood. Is that
not worth the having? Why do
YOU want to continue as you
are? Your happiness is depend

free to you, and SO is best medi-

in some people when they are
not aware OF it. Ulcers in the
throat, pinples on the body,
copper-colored spots, the falling
out of hair, show it. "3o-day

INSULT FOR CERVERA
PROPOSED SPANISH DEMONsTHA-
TION AGAINST THE ADMIRAL.
sLANCO AND COLONIALS OUT.
Decision of Home Government
Against the Captain-Generai-sn
r..ta snddied With Responsibility
for All Spuin's Disasters.

MADRID September 2O.-The workmen
of Bilbao where the cruisers which be-
longed 10 Admiral Cervera's fleet were
built have decided to so TO Santander in
order TO make a demonstration against
the defeated Spanish admiral on his re-
turn 10 Spain. The government, however,
has taken measures to prevent the plan
from being carried out, and the ministry
has forbidden demonstrations welcoming
Cervera home.
Captain-General Blanco cables from Ha-
bana that he is not in accord with the
Cuban colonial ministry, to which the
government here replied that while Span
lsh sovereignty existed in Cuba he must
apply autonomy, and therefore he could
not turn out the colonial government now
In office and appoint new one.
WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.
The Duke of Tetuan. who was Minister
Tor Foreign Affairs in the Cabinet of the
late Premier, Canovas del Castillo, is
quoted as saying in an interview: "SenoI
Canovas, II he had lived, could never have
accepted war with the United States. Ca
povas and myself were convinced that
war would lead inevitably 10 the ruin OF
Spain"
Continuing, the Duke blamed the Liber-
ais, who, he said, could have averted
war, either by accepting the proffered
good offices Of the United States minister,
General Stewart l.. Woodford, or by treat
ing with the insurgents on the basis of
Cuban independence, or by selling Cuba.
SAGASTA MUST Go.
"Senor Sagasta," the Duke Of Tetuan
declared. lis responsible for all our disas-
tiers, and must be elected from power"
