department at the state house.
The free silver republicans OF Lancaster

Mr.. Cockrell OF Missouri directed the at
teuton OF the pension committee to a bill
introduced by request by Mr. Pettus of
Alabama providing for the payment OF pen
sions to freedmen. MIR. Gallinger, chairman
of the committee on pensions, expressed the
opinion that no such measure should have
been presented 10 congress.
In my judgment" said Mr.. Gallinger,
this is a bill that ought not to and probably
will not receive the favorable consideration
OF the pension committee, The promoters
Of the bill are deludlng thousands OF poor
people and are simply trying to keep this
agitation alive for their own benefit"
Mr.. Cockrell urged that the bill be reported
back adversely as soon as possible. 1t was
referred to the pension committee.
Mr.. Pettigrew Of South Dakota offered a
resolution calling on the secretary OF war

THIS IS EASILY DONE.
The Now Treatment Never Fails to
Cure no Matter How Severe
the Case May He.

Now that it has been proven beyond all
doubt that food is not digested in the stom-
ach, only prepared by this organ for diges-
tion in the intestines; and that dyspepsia is
only caused by disease germ, the use Of
digestive ferments to assist digestion may
be dispensed with. The same can be said
of remedies given to cure Flatuency, Merry
BUSINESS, Sour Stomach, Distress after Eat
ing, Bilousness, etc; these are but the after
effect or symptoms Of the disease, not the
disease itself, consequently such remedies
can only afford temporary relief.
To cure Dyspepsia you must XIII the
germs which cause IL.
To relieve the symptoms, II re-
uuires two different remedies,
which IL given together counteract the ef
feet OF each other.
HYOMEI DYSPEPSIA CURE
never fails to cure because it contains the
only germicide known of sufficient power to
destroy the bacllli of dyspepsia without in
jury to the patient. 1t never fails TO relieve
the symptoms, because unlike any other
treatment, each remedy is given separately.
1t has proven q positive cure in every case
tried and this is why 1t is the only one ever
guaranteed.

Victim Receives "A Note.

| After the passing of the date when the
| sale OF the money was supposed to take
place the victim received note. The COM
pany was sorry, but he had been outbId by
others and every dollar sold had been dis
posed of at better rate than he had offered.
| The name or names OF those who were sup
posed to have bought the money were given.
! The company would hold the percentage
paid in and bid the same rate again unless
| the customer wished to increase the amount
| he would bid, in which case enough money
10 make up the additional 5 per cent of the
whole must beg forwarded. Usually this
| brought in some more money
This went on month after month until a
victim made demand for the return of his
| money. He then received blanks which he
had to fill out. He could not get the fees
back, but a percentage of the per cent
deposit would be returned-usually TO- 10 or
20 per cent-at the expiration Of twelve
months from the receipt OF the blank.
The Realty Loan and Trust company and
the Four Per Cent Mortgage company are
| alleged to have been worked together in
the same manner as the other two are
claimed to have been made to fit into each
| other to swinde persons, When the officers
swooped down upon the offices today they
took possession OF everything in sight eX-
cept the employees, whom the officers had all
investigated previously and knew all about

full of circulars, letters and applications
were seized. The inspectors say the appli-
cations for loans ran into the thousands and
that the profits to the prisoner have been
