acted In securing the attendance of Cen

The change of base of the Beaver line
Will throw to the two Western roads a

not be maintained without the aid of this

to be followed by the withdrawal of 9th

A steamship agent stated yesterday
that there is some dissatisfaction among
western agents of the transatlantic
lines, owing to the refusal of several of
the roads of the Western association to
grant courtesies desired. The withdraw

thought, would throw the greater part of
the steerage business to the 500. Great

completely shutting out the Southerlv

ance of the pool, the railroads will be

c1dent to handling this class of business
will be greatly increased

BISHOP CLARK ANNOYED.

Controversies UncaIIed For.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., May 17.-Rt. Rev.
Thomas M. Clark, the venerable presid-
ing bishop of the American house of bish-
ops has been much annoyed by the con-
troversy over the Briggs matter which
he considers most unfortunate. 1t has
brought him a vast amount of CORE
spondence and many kilograms In regard
TO the matter over which he thinks he
has no control. The bishop said that he
did not see what action he could take
ii he was DESTROYS of taking any. The
ordination of a priest was entirely a
matter of local control. There was
set method of procedure and If 1t was
carried out and the candidate for or
ders be recommended by the standing
committee, the bishop of the diocese had
no recourse except to ordain the candi-
date. He thought that Bishop Potter
In this case had exercised wise discre-
ton and judgment, and that his letter
explaining his course was a very clear
and convincing document. In these
views Bishop McVicker, the coadjutor,

OCEAN RATE TROUBLE.
Reported Action of the beaver Line
on immigration Business.

A well substantiated rumor among the
Third street brokers is to the effect that
the Beaver line has opened a rate war
on transatlantic immigration business,
by Withdrawing its steerage rates from
the North Atlantic pool Close inquiry
into the matter gave evidence that a
change has been announced which will
mean a widespread disarrangement of
North Atlantic rates. Not only is the
Beaver line affected, but all roads hand
ling it's rail business In this country as
well.
Two months ago the same line an
nounced its withdrawal from the pool in
the matter OF FIRST and second cabin
rates, and it was thought at the time
that further change would be made.
Evidence is piling up against other lines
in the pool well, and 1t is almost GER
tain that an adjustment of the difficulties
will be impossible. The Beaver line con-
trolls twenty transatlantic steamships
and the other lines in the pool combined
control but about thirty which gives the
new movement great significance
There has been a feeling of uneasiness
among the railroads of the Western Pas
senger association and Northwest lines
for some time over the condition of ocean
immigrant business and Its division
among different roads in this country.
A meeting was called for yesterday In
Chicago, at which the passenger and i'm
migration agents discussed the formation
of new agreement, which was attended
by representatives of both the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific roads 1t
is now stated that the meeting was called
in anticipation of further rate cutting
and for the purpose of coming to an agree
ment by which a close organization to
control general immigration could be eff

One Person in Every Four Suffers
From Piles.

About one person in every four suffers
from some form OF rectal disease. The
most common and annoying is itching
piles, indicated by warmth, slight moist
ure and intense, uncomfortable itching
in the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or salve which some
times give temporary relief, but nothing
like permanent cure can be expected
from such superficial treatment
The only permanent cure for itching
piles yet discovered Is the Pyramid Pile
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 a
short time causes a permanent removal
of the tumors or the small parasites
which cause the intense itching and dis
comfort of Itching piles.
Many physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief afforded
by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because
1t was supposed 10 contain cocaine, opi-
UNI, or similar drugs, but such is not the
case. A recent careful analysis of the
remedy showed 1t to be absolutely free
from any cocaine, opium, or. in fact, any
poisonous, Injurious drugs whatever Sold
by druggists at 30 CENTS per package.

sort of lovliness that all agree upon is the
beauty of health. No matter what her
features, no sick1y woman can be attrac-

face, hollow eyes, lifeless lips-these are
repellant And they can nearly always
be traced to the one cause-womanly
weakness or disease. Almost all the ills
of womankind are cured if you put the
