gether and II possible. agree upon a
basis of rates that will bring about
Withdrawal OF the Injunction suits, and
several OF the latter arrived today for
the conference.
AS to what the outcome of the said
conference will be. nothing can be said
except that the prospect for an amicabls
settlement Is bright enough, although
Commissioner Mayfeld is opposed to amy
kind OF compromise that does not con-
template an absolute surrender on the
part Of the railroads.
In case such compromise is not had,
Mr.. Mayfield VIII Issue emergency rates
little higher than tho cnjoined rates.
and In case Of another injunction, re-
peat the performance. This is in sub
stance what Ex-Governor Hogg suggested
| in a communication to the commission O
couple of weeks ago, in reply to which
communication he received letter from
Chairman Reagan in which 1t was demon
strated that said suggestion would moi
do to act upon.
In regard to the story appearing in to-
! days Galveston and San Aantonio papers
10 the effect that tho Katy and South,
ern Pacific companies are the only onc'
really wanting compromise, 1t can b.
said advisedly that it is rot. pure ans
simple, and prepared in absolute ignoranc
OF the true situation.

ITCHING PILES AND OTHER RECTAL
TROUBLES EASILY CURED BY 4
NEW AND SAFE METHOD.
A Remarkable Number of Cures Mado
ty the Pyramid Pile Cure.

About one person In every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease. The
most common and annoying is itchlng
piles, indicated by warmth, slight moisture
and intense, uncomfortable itching Ia ths
parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some sim
pie ointment or salve which sometimes give
temporary relief. but nothing like pcrma-
nent cure can be expected from SUCH su-
perfcial treatment.
The only permanent ours for itching
piles yet discovered Is tho Pyramid plio
Cure, not only for itching piles, but for
every other form of piles. blind, bleeding
or protruding. The first application gives
instant relief and the continued use for q
short time causes q. permanent removal OF
the tumors or the small parasites which
cause the intense itching aud discomfort
OF itching piles.
Many physicians for long time supposed
that the remarkable relief afforded by the
PYRAMID Pile Cure was because 1t was
s,,nposed 10 contain cocaine, opium or eim-
liar drugs, but such is not the case. a re-
cent careful analysis OF the remedy showed
II TO be absolutely free from any cocaine
