A HEALTHY CONDITION
OF THE
Mucous Membranes Of the Nose,

and Bowels

Is n mighty bulwark against all contn-
gious dIscIsvs. a Catarrhal or unhc1ttrry
condition of those membranes furnishes u
rich SOL In which disease-generati ting
germs increase and multiply There Is no
ono thing which you as an individual can
do moro important safeguard against
all forms OF contagion than to place those
organs in L healthy condition. You can
rely on tho public officials to carry out
all suitable sanitary precautions, but 1t
remains with you as an individual
whether You will place your body in the
best possible condition to resist contagion
or not. No germ can gain access to the
blood except through unhealthy con-
dlton OF the skin or mucous membranes.
and generally It IS catarrhal condition
of the latter through which they enter.

Tired of Fighting.

New York, Sept. IA dispatch to the
World from Hong Kong says: Advices
which were sent here to avoid Otis CEN
sorship at Manila, bearing date Of Sept.
u, says:
General Joseph Wheeler only obtained
an assignment to active duty after a SER
iOus dispute with General Otis, who
wanted to sidetrack the veteran fighter
by sending him to some obscure post in
the southern islands. General Wheeler
now declares that he will apply for per-
mission to return to the United States
soon unless there is some change in the
management of affairs in the Philippines.
An association of natives styling itself
'The Filipino Liberation society," has
applied for permission to organize in Ma
Mia with General Otis as the president
The general has declined to pledge HIM
self in the matter, but thought it might
be possible to forward the opera tons of
the association.
According to private letters received
within the American lines, several of the
rebel colonels and two of Aguna do's
brigadiers intend to allow themselves to
=; be captured when the United States
troops attack Tarlac because they are
tired of fighting. The World correspon-
dent has the names Of these discontented
Filipino officers, but to publish them
would be to betray them to the vengeance

The Plan Is Feasible.

New York, Sept. 1-.-Those who are
opposed secretly or openly to the effort
being made by retail butchers of this city
to fight the beef trust by building an in
dependent abbattoir of large proportions
in the east and the operating of it on
cooperative basis, have stated time
and again the movement of the beef
slauehtering trade to the west has been
material one and that all efforts to
bring it east again must be abortive be-
cause artificial and unnatural
John Bannon, editor of the national or
gan of the Retail Butchers association,
scouts this story and declares that the
theory of constructing a large abbat toir
here would be great incentive to the
raising of cattle in the east The western
movement of the cattle slaughtering
business. he asserts, is the work of the
Big Five alone. There are hundreds of
thousands of acres of fine grazing land
in the east on which no cattle are now
raised, solely because there is a poor
nome market for them. Many of the
cattle that are raised In the east, Mr.
Bannon declares, are shipped to Chicago,
there slaughtered and shipped east again
for consumption, two freight charges be-
ing paid on them, when only one is nee
eSSary.

This defeated attempts at support else
where, and values fell again all around
below the previous low point. Llquda-
tions became very heavy in various quar-
ters and bears redoubed their efforts.
Stop loss orders We're reached in all prin-
cipa properties. The drive eliminated
owing to the eagerness of the shorts to
cover at lower plane. The market was
unsettled and hestating at noon.

Soldiers Make Complaint.

New York, Sept. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Hong Kong says: Many
serious complaints have been made by
the discharged soldiers now on board the
transport Tartar, which is now being re-
paired here. These men declare that the
vessel is overcrowded, that she is in a
bad sanitary condition and that the sup
plies of food are insufficient The officers
in charge admit the genuineness of some
of these complaints, but they declare
that the discharged soldiers crowded the
ship of their own accord, although they
had an option of remaining in Manila
until the next troopship should sail. The
condition of the ship will seriously af-
feet the health of the returning soldiers.
There are 1900 of them on board, being
carried back to San Francisco. The SOL
diers on the Tartar are fraternizing with
the British regulars on duty here and are
being entertained at the various messes
of the garrison. At these gatherings the
Anglo American alliance is enthusiastic
cally toasted. The Tartar will sail Tues
day.
