The department of agriculture will introduce
into the United States the great honey bees
found in the Philippiues. These bees are twice
as large as those of this country, and produce
five or six times as much honey. They have
extra long tongues and can reach the nectar
in many flowers that our own variety cannot.
While this move will be of material benefit, it
will not be any more so than Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bit:ers. which reaches and cures many
ailments that other remedies fall short of.
Among them may be mentioned dyspepsia, in
digestion, biliousness. constipation, malaria,
wasting diseases, and affections of the kidneys

| Charleston, W. Va, Jan 26.-After a
| contest OF over two weeks Internal Rev
enue Commissioner Nathan 3. Scott
was yesterday afternoon elected Unit
cd States senator from West Virginia
for the term ending in March. 1905.
Many predicted that there would be a
deadlock for weeks, but a decisive re-
suit was reached on the first ballot,
when there were continued demonstra-
tions OF applause. Senator Elkins, Sem
ator-elect Scott and others were freely
congratulated on the management that
prevented what some considered a seri-
Gus crisis. The vote in joint conven-
tion stood: Scott. Republican, As; Nc
Graw, Democrat, 46; Goff,- Republican,
/: total vote cast. 95; necessary to elect,
4S. AS the ballot stood when the last
name was called Scott had only Al votes
and the deadlock which had been ex-
pected seemed assured.
Blizzard Man Ouiets the Trouble.
But just before the president of the
senate started to announce the result
Delegate Hunt arose and was recog-
nized by the president. He had voted
for Judge Reece Blizzard, whom he had
nominated and voted for in separate
session the previous day. Il desire to
change my vote" he said. and he cast
the vote that elected Scott. Delegate
Asbury, who had been absent during
the entire session on account of sick
ness, was present and voted for Scott.
Morris. Republican, against whom n
contest was pending in the senate. was
not permitted to vote, and the Taylor
County seat in the house which is
claimed by Dent, Democrat, was left
vacant. in accordance with the compro-
mise agreement reached Tuesday night
between the leaders of the two houses.
Contest Is Removed to Washington.
1t was given out that Scott's election |
would be contested before the United |
States senate. During the balloting the
Democrats filed protests against the |
votes of Getzendanner and Pierson. |
whom they claim to be ineligible be-
cause they accepted a commission in |
the volunteer army while holding their |
offices as senator. This they will make |
one ground OF the contest The 9TH |
er ground will be that Scott received |
only 4S votes, a majority of the joint
assembly or of all present, but one less
than a majority of all the members
elected to the legislature AS a prece-
dent they cite the Blackburn Hunter
case in Kentucky, in which the senate
refused to let Hunter take his seat be-

Report of Naval Officers of Conditions

About Us.
Guantanamo, Cuba, Jan. 26.-The Gu
ban General Pedro Perez, mayor of
Guantanamo, denies absolutely the
charges recently brought by Lieutenant
Colonel Ray and others against the in
Surgents in this neutrality-suspicious.
the charges of incendiarisnl and
brigandage. Exhibiting his commission
as major general in the Cuban army
as q proof of the hold he has upon the
insurgents Mayor Perez said to the
correspondent of the Associated Press
yesterday: They are all my friends,
and 1 must know it if such acts as
have been reported were really COM
n.itted. 1 am convinced that there is
no band organized to burn the sugar
cane, and 1 know that there is not an
iEsurgent camp in the entire district
under my supervision as a Cuban COM
rauder, and / believe this section about
Guantanamo is the most peaceful Part
of tie province"
Planters Are Divided in Opinion.
Among the planters opinions are
about equally divided. Three whose
plantations are in the Immediate vicini-
ty of Guantanamo assured the CORE
spOndent yesterday that they had had
no trouble and did not believe any one
else had. On the other hand three 9TH
ers with equally good opportunity to
know the facts confirmed the reports
of burnings. Soledad plantation, which
employs 400 eX-insurgents, has begun
grinding, and Ernest Brooks, manager
and part owner, denies that there has
been any trouble. He says it is nothing
unusual at this time of the year for
cane to burn. as any accident might set
it afire. In his opinion the insurgents,
for the most part, are ready to return
to work.
Soldiers Are Somewhat Divided. Too.
Then again his brother. Theodore
Brooks. who owns several large planta-
tions. is firmly convinced that there
docs exist an organized band for burn
ing cane and preventing grinding. The
United States soldiers who are guard
ing the planta tions are equally divided
in opinion as to this matter, some of
them saying that they are always ex-
pecting trouble, while others can see no |
necessity for guarding the plantations
Chief Of Gendarmerie Valiente, who
has been making a special investiga-
ton, asserts that this district is abso-
lutely the most peaceful part of the |
province, and that over 5000 former in
