WILL GO BY SAN FRANCISCO
TROOPS HEREAFTER DESTINED
FOR THE PHILIPPINES.
War Department Will Not Send Any
More From New York By Way of
the Suez Canal.

Washington, May 1.-THE war de-
partment will not send any more troops
to Manila by way of New York and
the Suez canal. All troops now under
orders for Manila, or to be ordered
there during the next few months, Will
be sent by the way of San Francisco.
1t is expected the Grant and Shar-
man, now at San Francisco, and the
Sheridan, which will soon arrive there,
will carry all the troops that will be
needed in the Philippines. Nor is it
the intention, at present, to make the
Logan, Meade and Thomas a part of
the Pacific transport fleet. These ships
will be refitted as soon as they can he
spared from service in the West Indies.
They are owned by the government
and, with others, will be converted into
the best army transports, in accord
ance with plans announced long ago,
when it became apparent that army
transports would be needed for several
years to come.
1t is believed by the quartermaster
department that nearly four months
will be required to put the ships in
first-class condition. Secretary Alger
says it will be quite three months be-
fore the ships are ready for service.
and he does not intend to make any
order now respecting their movements
at that time. but added that no troops
would be either sent or returned to the
United States by way of SueZ al pres
ent.
The health of the troops would be
endangered by going through the In
dian ocean and along equatorial lati-
tudes during the summer.

NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. .prvKHAM.l


a woman with the blues is very un.
comfortable person. She is Illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues" nearly always, with wo.
men, results from diseased organs OF
generation.
1t is source of wonder that in this
age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
BUSINESS in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough com
mon sense. and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. +. S. BENNETT,
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol-
lowing letter:
DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, l wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for a short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
81 am now gaining strength and
flesh, and have better health than
have had for the past ten years.
wish to say to all distressed, suffer
ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there is one so kind and willing to
aid you"

The case was that of a deputy sheriff

kntiSeptic and Embalming Fluids
Used In Food.
TO PROHIBIT THEIR USE
RESULT OF SENATE COMMIT
TEES INQUIRY AT CHICAGO.
Startling Information That Food and
Drink Is Adulterated With Poi
sonous Substances = Consumers
Know Not What They Eat-Beer
VIII Be Subject to Investigation.

Chicago. May 11.-Before the senate
committee today four prominent wit
nesses testified as to the effect on the
human stomach OF the use of antiseD-
tics and embalming fluids and preserv-
atives in food and drink. In general.
they We're agreed that the substances
used were injurious, and that in many
cases they We're poisonous.
Either prohibit their use, they de-
clared. or compel the manufacturers
and users TO brand them plainly and
explicitly, so that the consumer may
know exactly what is being eaten.
These witnesses were Henry G. Pif-
fard, New York physician; Abbott
c. Prescott, dean OF the School of
Pharmacy of the University of Michi-
gan and professor of hygienic chemis-
try; Victor c. Vaughn, dean of the
medical faculty at Ann Arbor and pro-
fessor of hygiene, and n c. Adams,
dairy and food commissioner in Wis
conSin.
Bromo Eeltzer Is Dangerous.
Dr. Piffard made specific references
to foods and drugs which are being
generally adulterated, sometimes with
a dangerous result to the consumer.
Bromo-seltzer, he said, is one of these.
of potassium, or some other substance
of that kind, and the ingredients of
settler water.
But il appears" he continued, that
acetenilide is being extensively used III
stead. In the now famous Adams case,
the experts examination of the bromo
showed the presence, in addition to the
acute poison. of acetinilide, so that
believe its use is widespread"
ha fccia CT tn
ment at the close of the day:
THE things which seem to stick out
above the details of the investigation
are the facts that antiseptics are used
indiscriminately TO defraud and de-
ceive; that they are in most cases in
furious, and in some positively danger
Gus.
Second, that in the absence of eX-
plicit labels. dishonest manufacturers
are enabled to put spurious goods on
the market. These things will be
looked after in the proposed legisla-
ton"

The testimony of witnesses already
heard has attracted wide attention in
all parts of the country. Letters are

analysis of all brands offered in the

their report will become a part of the

said that the regulations in regard to
beer would receive serious attention.

Its Usefulness Undoubted.

THAT there is a field of usefulness for
space biography is undoubted, but that
it will suDDlant to a material extent
the use of wire for ordinary commercial
telegraphy is not believed. Its value
for connection between lighthouses and
lightships at sea and to replace ordi
nary flag methods in use between naval
vessels should prove invaluable. since
no kind of weather, neither fog, dark
ness nor storm, avail to affect its use.
The use of metal refiectors to aug
ment and direct the radiation to par
ticular points has already met with
partial success. and should be thor
Oughly investigated. At present the
radiation proceeds from the transmittcr
in all directions, and the same message
can be received at any point within the
proper radius at which a receiver is
placed. A satisfactory directing re-
Hector and a receiver Of the proper cleo
trical capacity. or. in other words,
tuned 70 the vibra tons of the particu-
lar transmitter. would make a great
advance in space telegraphy, and do
much toward the extension of its field
of practical usefulness.
While SECRECY Of transmission IS
among the probabilities, the present
stage Of experiment does not justify its
positive prediction"

SPEECH TO CONFEDERATES
SAYS THAT JEFFERSON WAS AN
EXPANsIoNIST.
We Have Risen to First Place
Among Nations-To Return to
Starting Point Would Be to Lose
What Would Require a Century
to Regain.

Charleston, S. c., May 1.-THE me-
mortal to Winnie Davis was one of the
features of today's session of the Con-
federate Veterans. Colonel Bennett FL.
Young of Louisville paid tribute to
the memory of the daughter of the
confederacy."
A resolution was unanimously adopt
ed extending the thanks of every vet
eran to the people of the north who so
tenderly administered to Winnie Davis
at the time of her illness at Narragan-
sett Pier. The Jefferson Davis monu-
ment committee submitted the follow
ing report:
Resolved, That it is the earnest and
unanimous wish of the United Confed-
crate Veterans that the committee snail
undertake the patriotic task of build
ing the monument to President Jeffer
son Davis at Richmond, Va, feeling
confident as we do that under their di-
rection. the work will soon be accom-
plished, and we shall have in the cap
ital city of the confederacy q memorial
worthy of the president and OF the
people over whom he ruled with such
fidelity and wisdom.
General Wheeler's Address.
In his address to the veterans, Gen.
eral Joseph Wheeler said:
The position in which the American
people find themselves today was NOT
sought by them, but is the logical result
of conditions thrust up the country by
course of events beyond our control.
The supreme test of American institu-
tons is involved. and the American
system of government is On trial.
In one year we have risen to the
first place in the family of nations; to
make the smallest retrograde step
would be at the expense of the prestige
we have won. To return to the start
ing point of a year ago would be to
lose what it would take a century TO
regain.
In answer to those who say that the
policy of our forefatherS forbade the
extension of territory, l would point to
Jefferson and the Louisiana purchase.
Monroe and Florida, Polk and Texas
Mexico, and later to Andrew Johnson
and the acquisition of Alaska.
Jefferson an Expansionist
IF there be any who cont nd that We
should not permit the island of Cuba
to become a part of the United States,
and its people, if they desire it, to en-
joy all the rights of American citizen
ship, l have only to point to the Official
declaration of our great statesmen,
commencing with Thomas Jefferson,
and running through almost the entire
period of the first half of this century.
During all that period our honored
statesmen and presidents from Jeffsr-
son to Buchanan laid down in their
messages and state documents the i'm
perative necessity of making the Pear,
of the Antilles a part of the United
States
