Catarrh has become such a common
disease that person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. tits customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than bad cold,
a simple Inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, complicated and
very dangerous disease; if not at first, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison
through the general circulation is carried
to all parts of the system.
Salves, washes and sprays are unsatis-
factory and disappointing, because they
do not reach the seat of the trouble. S.

RATHBONE IS IN
 MORE TROUBLE
Auditors Have Thrown Out $15,-
 900 Worth of Vouchers.
BILLS HAVE BEEN PAID TWICE
The Fidelity Company Has Been Noti- lied That It Will be Held Respon- sible on Rathbone's Bond
 Claim of Deception

Havana, June S.-The troubles of Estes G. Rathbone, former director of posts, seem to be increasing. The auditors di vision has thrown out $15,000 worth of vouchers which have been paid twice, most of them at Muncie, Ind. The Fidelity com pany has been notified that it will be held responsible on MT. Rathbone's bond MT Miller, the manager of the company, and MT Rathbone have held prolonged inter- views during the last few days, but no de- cision has been arrived at regarding this new aspect of the situation. The authori- ties contend that the Fidelity company is responsible.
 MT. Rathbone's friends insist that c. r. Nicely deceived MT. Rathbone, who signed at Neelys request without knowing what he was signing. Corydon Rich has been placed under a S2,000 bond as a witness in the Nicely case. A letter has been received here by friend of Neely's saying that if forced to return he will show that Rich is liar, and that the latter received as much as Nicely did

NOTHING NEW IN
 STRIKE SITUATION
Transit Company Takes Off the Cars After NightfaII.
NO CASUALTIES REPORTED
The Company Says That Many of the Strikers Are Deserting and Mak- ing Applications for Jobs
 Relief Fund Distributed

St. Louis, June S-It was given out today that the St Louis Transit system, feeling encouraged at it's success in operating cars last night on the Lindel division would make the same experiment on four other divisions tonight-the Olive street, LaClede avenue, Park and Compton ave nues. At nightfall however, ears on all but the Lindell divisions were withdrawn. Railway officials stated that the chief of police and sheriff were unable to furnish proper protection for crews and passen- gers and that the company would not at tempt to operate additional lines at night until absolutely assured that it's passen- gers lives would not be endangered. Cars on the Lindell division were operated to- night on seven minute schedule, but car ried few passengers. Police officers rode on each car and the entire route from Taylor avenue to Third street, a distance of four miles, patrolled by policemen and a regiment of the posse comitatus.
 No casualties had been reported up to a late hour.
 The chairman or the grievance commit tee and ex-Governor Stone attorney for the strikers, held lengthy conference to- ddy' hi' Seiid ieStSA eiu'N e..S ' gotiations with the Transit company ap- peared to be at an end for the present, and there seems to be no likelihood of either side being able to formulate an agreement which will be mutually satisfactory.
 The St. Louis Transit company says large numbers of the strikers are daily de serting the ranks and making applications for reinstatement. At union headquarters it is announced that the striking car men are prepared for a long siege. The sub scriptions which have been received are being distributed, and the divisions com mittees are also actively al work providing for the needs of the strikers.
 In many instances unmarried men who are not in need of the relief furnished by the union are refusing to accept their pro- rata and urging that 1t be given to men with families The division committees are also taking steps to get landlords to re- duce the rents, and it was reported at headquarters Friday morning that their efforts had been successful in many cases.
 Four new companies of the posse comita- tus were organized today. Sheriff Pohlman has sworn in 1,S00 men up to this time. It is expected that the fuli complement of missioners will be secured by the end of the week. Among the privates are to be found some of the best-knoWn citizens Tn town men of letters art, sculpture and commeIc cial pursuits.

DEMOCRATS WILL
 PUT UP THE BARS
TContinued From First Page.I

TContinued From First Page.l executive committee, also testifying to the regularity of the committed MT. Murray, in his affidavit, stated that it had been the custom for years in that county to print the names of only one set of delegates in each beat, and that the delegates selected for the New Decatur box were divided be- tween the candidates for governor, and that no protests against them were made prior to the primary.
 MT. Drake opened the argument for the protestants He said he would admit the showing made by the defense as to juris- diction but that no contest was made in the county or state convention, as they thought it would be useless to appeal to body elected in such manner as was the Morgan county convention. He said there was no fight on the part of democrats against the democratic nominees, but against the executive committee.
 Question of JurIsdIction
 MT. Kyle, for the defense, stated that he would confine his argument to the question of Jurisdiction He said two of the protest ants were in the county convention and of- fered no objection to the election of the executive committee. The state committee, he said acted in an appellate capacity ,the same as the supreme court and in order to reach the committee the case must first go before the county convention.
 Alter listening to arguments or MT. Drake and MT. Kyle the committee, on motion of MT. Lomax of Montgomery, at 6 o'clock went into executive session to consider the protest.
 The committee declined to sustain the pro- test on the ground that the committee had no Jurisdiction of the case, in that no pro- test was filed in the county convention. The following resolution, offered by MT Bowie of Calhoun, was adopted: Resolved, That the action of the Morgan county executive committee in preparing a form of ballot so as to leave no place county convention and the putting upon such official ballot of only the delegates selected by the beat committeeman was unfair and undemocratic, and we strongly condemn such practices.
 Resolved, further, That if an appeal had been taken from such action of this com mittee prior to the holding of such beat meetings it should and would have been sustained. Inasmuch, however, as such ap- peal was not taken until after the beat meetings and county and state conventions and no contest or protest made either in the county state convention, it comes too late and must be dismissed.
 The committee was behind closed doors about twenty minutes ana the adoption of Mir Bowie's resolution took a five min utes' recess.
 When the committee reconvened at 6:30 MT. Lomax of Montgomery stated that be- fore going into the Fourth district protest that Hon. John w. Tomlnson be granted permission to address the committee on the question of funds for the national commit tee. The request was granted and MT.

HON. SIDNEY J. BOWIE
May Make the Race for Congress in tle
 Fourth District

Anniston, June S.-(Special)-The con- test for the democratic nomination for congress in this district has taken on a new feature, and one which will make 1t decidedly more exciting. It is probable that Hon. Sidney J. Bowie, whose splendid work for Senator Morgan in the senatorial campaign gained him wide renown, will enter the race. MT. Bowie has been earnestly solicited to make the race, and he has the matter under advisement. He would be exceedingly strong in Calhoun, Talladega, Cleburne and Shelby counties, and would have considerable strength in other counties in the district
 MT. Bowie's friends in this county and Talladega are particularly anxious for him to enter the contest.

Tuscaloosa, June S.-(Special.) )-The re- cent heavy rains have caused another washout in the streets. Considerable dam age has been done throughout the town. The most serious damage is at the corner of Pine and Washington streets, near the old ice house. The earth caved in at the corner to the extent of about thirty feet, leaving the dummy track suspended over an abyss of at least twenty feet. The cot tage of Ed Fitch is endangered, the cave in almost reaching the foundation of his dwelling. The loss to the Belt railway is very serious, as it will be necessary to erect trestles at that point before the track can be used.

 Must Not Make Donation

Athens, June S.-(Special.) 1.-The city coun- ell. the county treasurer and the officers of the Athens Cotton Mill company have been served with the official papers in an injunc- ton suit to prevent the payment and the collection of the 5000 donated equally by the city and county to the building of a octton factory.
