Did you ever stop to think what indigestion
really means? 1t means simply that your
stomach is tired. If our legs are tired, we ride.
The horse and the steam engine do the work.
Why not give your stomach a ride; that is, let
something else do its work. Foods can be di-
gested outside of the body. All plants con-
tain digestive principles which will do this.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial contains diges-
tive principles and is a preparation designed
to rest the stomach. The shakers themselves
have such unbounded confidence in it that
they have placed 10 cent sample bottles on the
market, and it is said that even so small a
quantity proves beneficial in a vast majority
of cases. All druggists keep it.

Cleveland. o.. June 21.-The effort to
settle the strike Of the street railway men
Is likely to be successful and it2 Is zow
believed that a settlement may. be, reached
tomorrow Through the efforts Of the
oity council the officers of the company
and a committee of the strikers were
brought together today to discuss the
ultimatum presented by the company
yesterday. The only question is how
many OF the old men will be reinstate1 If
the strike is declared off. At the confer
ence today the company offered to take
back 60 per cent of the old hands at once
and reinstate the others who were accep-
table as soon as the opportunity offered.
The strikers committee would not con-
sent to that. Subsequently the company
agreed to reinstate all but 100 of the old
men and with that offer under consid-
Grafton the conference adjourned until
tomorrow afternoon. The members of
the council committee think a settlement

GREAT BRITAlN's CASE.
Her Position on venezuelan boundary
| Question.

Paris, June 2i.-The We nezuelan boun-
Diary commission re-assembled at eleven
O'Clock this morning and Sir Richard
Webster. the British attorney general. re-
sumed his speech in behalf of the case of
Great Britain. Dealing with the period
from l500 to 1857 he said Great Britain
was unable to rely on the Spanish or
Venezuel an control and was compelled to
fall back upon the discovery and circum-
navigation so-called, of the unit of
Guiana, Venezuela, arguing that Guiana
was defined area, that Spain had dis
covered that defined area and had taken
part. in the name OF the whole, taking
such possession as to entitle her to the
whole.
In close detail Sir Richard Webster ex.
amined the work of the various explorers
of thesperiod, upon whom Venezuela re-.
lied, claiming they were not relevant tc
the Territory Of Guiana, adding that the
statements made before the United States
commission must not be used in argu-
ment against Great Britain, as frequent
deductions were made which were totally
unsupported as Justice Brewer, a former
member of that commission, would
doubtless remember. F.

MORE TROOPS NEEDED.
More connrmssory Evidence That sit
nation I'm Philippines Is Grave.

San Francisco, June 21.--Dr. Charles
A. McQueston, who. was on the staff oi
eeneral Otis, and who was health officer
at Manila. his returned home invalided
BY the climate.
Capt McQueston made close study Of
the condition OF the Philippine situation.
He Is Of the opinion that it will take
from 100. 900 to 1856, 900 soldiers to properly
subdue and hold the islands. He also
says that the peace commission was an
absolute failure and that its work from
the start was without effect. He strongly
supports the military government of the
islands, except that he thinks more men
viii be necessary than has been estimated.
Ut Schurman knows that the commits
sion Is failure and ID coming home In
July, added Capt. AcQueston.
Unless troops thousHritls OF them are
sent to the aid OF our men they viii be
driven back Into Manila ~ the course Of
the next few months during the rainy
season. Our men simply cannot stand
the climate. Fifty per cent Of them will
be incapacitated by illness and the terri
tory overrun win have to be abandoned.
Manila will be in state Of seige again.
"Our officers and soldiers have accom-
pAinneu wonders ana nave proven bnem-
selves the best soldiers In the world. But
nothing decisive has come Of 1t becauss
our men are not In great enough force.
Zone Of the great dangers that our
men have to face Is the climate. The new
comers will be at disadvantage, because
the volunteers who are returning home
are injured TO the climate. This will
make more men necessary than We could
otherwise have put In the field. As a
matter of belief the Filipinos think they
have the Americans licked already. One
solution of the situation might ba to en-.
list colored men from the gulf states and
this might settle some of the race ques-
tions OF that section. These men would
be better able TO stand the climate con-
ditions around Manila and IL has been
proven that they are good fighters.
II want to say q word for the Western
volunteers. They make the finest soldiers
in the world and their fighting qualities
are wonderful. But the volunteers want
to return home and hardly think that
the plan to re-enlist these skeleton regi.
ments from the volunteers now In the
Philippines will be success. The men
enlisted 30 fight for their country and
they are not the kind Of man who want
TO stay and fight an insurrection for
money or the fun Of tighting.r

CAROLINES FOR STARTER,
Nucleus Of Germany's Colonial
e 7sss.w bss Empire. 80
Won Buelow Calls Them Pillars or,Arch
+ saa b.of New Fabric.

Berlin, June 21.-The Reichstag today
passed the third reading of the bill pro.
viding for the prolongation of the Anglo
German commercial treaty.
Baron He'll zu Herrnsheim, National
Liberal. previously withdrew the amend
ment, of which he had given notice une
IL, that the next favored nation treat.
ment shall apply only to those parts of
the British empire which grant to the
subjects and products of Germany the
same advantages as are granted to the
subjects and products of the most favored
ma tion.t
During the course of his remarks Baron
Won Buelow said:
1--WE hold 1t to be our first duty to see
that our relations with other powers are
undisturbed by the new acquisition and
hope that our relations with the imme-
date neighbors of the islands, namely.
the Americans and Japanese, will only
thought of placing ourselves in opposition
to the Americans in the South Pacific
and we as little wish to prejudice Ameri-
can Interests as Americans contemplate
iniuring JUS without cause or reason.
We shall meet the aactive and talented
Japanese with sincere sympathy. There
Is no reason why on the basis OF m utual
fairness aud respect, the powers interest
ed In these regions should not side br
side, forward the works of peace and
civilization. We hope through the treaty
which harmoniously ends the economic
and political differences that the relations
between the Spaniards and Germans will
become of the friendliest description.
The business concluded with Spain Ia an
honorable transaction IN which neither
has bestsd the other. For Spain the Isl.
ands were only the remnants of q ruined
building. To us they are the pillars oi
the arch of a new fabric with a great fu.
tnre. please God.
During the course of the debate Herr
Leibkneoht, Socialist, was called to order
for declaring that the government would
be much better employed in removing
the terrible evils existing at home,'' ant
for declaring the colonial policy Of tbs
ministers ridiculo us and despicable.

CHANCE FOR ARBITRATION.
The Outlook Not as blue as Has Been
lt Painted.


The Hague, June 2l.--The best in
formed circles here do not share the
gloomy views of the European press re-
garding the peace conference. After a
weeks adjournment, the arbitration COM
mittee met for short time today, Dr..
Zorn Of the German delegation and Mr..
Frederick Hollis of the United States del
egation attending. MIR. Hollis expresse d
himself as satisfied with the results Of the
trip he took to Berlin in company with
DR.. zorn, and the German dslsgates have
been instructed TO participate IN the de-
fiberaticns OF the arbitration commission
which Will now continue brisk work
pending the final decision of Germany.
The disarmament committee to which
was submitted the circular Of Count
Muraviaff has considered the second,
third and fourth paragraphs on the Sub
committee, the result being negat i've
vote upon all three oE the ground that 1t
would be impossible to decide upon sat
isfactory plan for checking the continued
improvements In explosive ordinance.
This decision will be submitted to the
committee tomorrow. The first paragraph
of the circular which proposes to arrest
the increase in land and sea forces and
war budgets has NOT yet been touch ed.
The Russians, IL is said, intend to in
troduce fresh proposals and 1t is not
doubted that the conference will reach
| important proposals on the last 70 ur par
| agraphs of the circular, supplementing
| the tseneya convention and the Brussels
conference and providing for mediation
| and arbitration.
