LONDON. Jan. 2.-Some remarka BILE
Iacts have developed regarding the
suicide OF Eleanor Marx-Aveling last
March. 1T appears that she learned
that DR.. Aveling. the English socialist
leader. with whom she had lived for a
shumper OF years, had secretly married
young lady. He admitted that this
was true and intimated that he was
tired of her. whereupon Mrs. Ayeling
said the best thing she could do was
to commit suicide. DR.. Aveling, it
further appears. allowed her to send
10 drug store for poison and went
out walking While she drank it. The
public prosecutor would have taken &C.
ton in the matter but for DIR. Aveling's
sudden death on Aug. last.
Mrs. Eleanor Marx-Aveling was the
daughter of the late celebrated Ger
man socialist leader, Karl Marx. She
committed suicide, according to the
London dispatch. in March last, though
news was not made public here until
April 2. She was about forty three
years of age and was the youngest of
SIX children. When quite a young girl
she studied Shakespeare. and when she
grew up she helped her father in his
literary labors. After her fathers
death she was understood to have mar
ried Dr. Aveling ard came with him

leader. to this country, in 1885, They
addressed a meeting of socialists,
anarchists and communists in New
York. and made a lecturing tour
through the country. The late Mrs
Marx-Aveling was a good linguist, and
acted as interpreter at the labor con-
crosses in Paris, Brussels, Zurich and
London and wrote articles for the labor
papers. She committed suicide by TAX
ing prussic acid.

BELM0NTs AT OUTS.
One of the Brothers Retires From
the Banking Firm


NEW YORK, Jan. 2-Oliver H. P. Bel
mont's suddenly announced retirement from
the Belmont banking firm has set Wall street
to talking. That there was some friction in
the rich company has been vaguely reported
IN the street, but it was not generally SUM-
posed that the breach was wide enough to
cause dissolution of the firm. Now report
has 1t that there is even likelihood of q law
suit before the difficulties are Strengthened
out.
Ostensibly the reason for the parting OF the
brothers is the expiration of the articles Of
agreement among the partners of August
Belmont & Co., but those articles were Of
course, renewable. and had all been pleasant
in the business it is hardly likely that The
mere expiration of the articles Of partner
ship between the brothers would have part
ed them. -
August Belmont has been head of the bank
Ing firm since his fathers death, q period
that saw the business already great double
or triple. Oliver H. P. Belmont has taken \
less conspicuous part In the affairs of the
firm.

RELIgE coMEs ICE .rIRsrHouR


Il may seem strange for you TO md
after years Of doctorlng that Dyspepsia
In all It's forms is one Of the easiest dis
eases to cure. yet such IS fact. II was
only necessary to md the cause and
science soon furnished the cure. For
years the medical profession thought
that food was digested In the stomach
and that the lack Of digestive fluids
caused Indigestion. nervous dyspepsia,
tiatplency, and in truth all the sup-
posed various forms OF dyspepsia
known. Believing this they, with the
manufacturers, have always worked on
these lines, and all dyspepsia cures
made were composed Of digestive fer-
fneRts combined with some cathaFtic.
The fact that temporary relief followed
the use Of these remedies was sufficient
reason for their continuance, although
to the surprise Of the doctors permanent
cures were seldom made. This was
easily explained, however, when science
proved THAT FOOD WAS NOT d.
GEsTED IN THE STOMACH AT
ALL, only prepared by this organ for
digestion by the intestInes; that dyas
pepsia was caused by a disease germ
and that they had been doctoring the
symptoms instead OF the disease itself.
It was found that these germs in the
stomach caused indigestion, fiatulencY,
catarrh Of the stomach, gastritls, ner-
vous aud acid dyspepsia, and, when io-
Gated In the bowels caused Intestinal ins
digestion, blliousness, dlarrhoea. con-

THE ONLY METHOD OF CURE
then was 70 destroy the germs. and The

MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE

In Special session, called BY GOV,
PingTeo, 70 Secure Passage Of Joint
Resolution Providing tor cCnSti-
tutional Amendment Placing Rail-
Toads on Same Bash Of Taxation
as Other Property.
LANSING, Mich, Dec. 1s.-rhl
Michigan legislature met in special ses-
sion at noon to-day. in response 10 the
call Of Governor Plngree. The gov
ernor's object Is 70 secure the passage
Of a Joint resolution providing for sub
misalon % thepeOple At the general cleo
ton next November Of an amendment
to the state constitution, placing rail-
ways upon the same basis for taxation
as all other property, AT present the
railroads pay specific charges upon
gross earnings.
interest In the special session Is I'M
creased by the fact that the grand jury,
which has returned indictments alleging
bribery agaIst come OF the Legislators, Is
sim in session here, Speaker Adams,
OF the house OF representatives, who IL
one Of the indicted men, presided to-day
as usual.
The message Of Governor Pingree was
read this afternoon at the joint session
Of the two houses. It urged the pas
sage Of the proposed joint resolution, so
Us to permit the enactment Of laws by
the next legislature for equal taxation
Of all property at its true cash values.
Said the governor;
1.-THE inequality Of our system OF tax
alton Is so great that immediate steps
should be taken to remedy II. Tie
question involved has for years been ex-
haustiVely discussed, and 10 therefore no
longer properly open for debate, but
calls for energetic action
Governor Plngree referred to the his
tory OF the Atkinson railway taxation
act, which was declared unconstltu-
tional by the slate supreme court, and
recalled the fact that Joint resolution
of similar purport to the one now pro-
posed passed the house during the reg
ular session. but died In the senate COM
mittee. He called particular attention
TO clause in the 'SS platform Of Ailchi-
gan Republicans. which commended the
Plngree administration for It's efforts in
the direction OF equal taxation. and ia
vOred immediate legislation for taxing
railroad, Telegraph. telephone and ex-
press companies properties upon their
true value, The message urged that
the matter be considered only as a mat
ter OF principle.
The governor submitted q table, show.
ing the comparative value. of railroad
property in the states which most near
~ resemble Michigan In population and
development, and stating the value at
which Michigan's railway property
would be assessed x worth as much per
mile as such property in the states men
toned, viz: Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio
and wisconsin. His deduction from this
was that the Michigan railroad prop
erty based on such values. would pay
several times the amount Of revenue to
the state which they now do. The gov
ernor concluded by saying:
TT Is well for you to remember that
there are only three states IN the Union
in whlchrailr0adsp pay specific taxes up
on gross earnings.
