HARMONY IN THE RANKS.
Governor Stone Denies Story Of Eric

Chicago, Jan. 6.-Former Governor
W. J. Stone Of Missouri vice chairman
of the Democratic national committee,
was in Chicago today.
There is absolutely no truth in the
report Of any differences between Sen
ator Jones and myself" he said, and
I am not aware of any dissatisfaction
on the part Of any members of the
committee with Senator Jones. I have
not changed my ideas with reference
to Mr.. Bryan being the nominee Of the
party and don't believe silver will be
side-tracke1.
! thoroughly approve Of the acquire
ment Of Puerto Rico by this country
and regret Cuba does not sustain the
same relations towards US. As it is,
however. We stand pledged to see that
Cuba enjoys independence and We shall
have to live up to Our word.
Regarding the Philippines, I should
like to see them given autonomy with
an American protectorate and think an
amicable arrangement could have been
reached in this direction without any
war if little patience and diplomacy
had been used. As il is now, there is
nothing to do but secure Unquestioneh
recognition Of the American flag. When
that has been done it viii be time to
discuss what course this country should
pursue.

CIYILIzING NATIVES OF GUAM
CAPTAIN LEARY. GOVERNOR OF
ISLAND, TELLS OF HIS WORK.
Praises Efforts Of One Priest Who Is
Rendering Valuable Assistance to
the Americans.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The secretary of
the navy has received a most interest
ing report from Captain Leary, gov
ernor of Guam, recording his achieve
ments in tho matter Of ciVilizing the
natives and cleaning up the island. The
report begins with the statement that
three Of the marine guard, Privates
D'Rourke, Paul Schoemig and William
P. Brown, attached to the Guam bat
talon, have died and been buried with
military hOnOTs. Captain Leary says;
There are ether cases of sickness,
but every possible care and attention
is given them, and all precautions are
being taken to improve the sanitary
condition of the station.
After issuing my proclamation,
says Captain Leary, setting aside
Thanksgiving day, according to our ma
tiOnal custom, the native priest at
Agana informed me that he would. on
That day, celebrate a special thanks
giving service. in which our station
band would participate.
The high esteem in which Padre }.
ZpalamO, the native priest, has been
held by every one in the island seems
to be justly meTited by him, as he has,
on all occasions, shown himself TO be a
man of extraordinary moral qualities,
and u Is a pleasure to state that IN my
various local duties and DEGREES as gov
ernOr he has promptly and energetically
endorsed the governments action,
thereby strengthening our influence
with the people for good.
a report Of the medical departments
service among the inhabitants of Guam
has been submitted by Surgeon Philip
Leech, Z. S. N, showing the excellent
work that is being accomplished by our
small corps Of medical officers who have
worked with tireless zeal and energy,
and are deserving of the highest
praise
Surgeon Leech. after referring to the
various cases under his care, says; AS
sistant Surgeon Stone had persuaded
the people Of Agan, the largest village,
to establish d hospital Of ten beds. So
striking has been the result that the
authorities Of the village are now build
ing and have nearly finished ana ad-
ditional hospital for twenty bends.
He says further; The people appear
to be grateful for what is being gra-
tuitiOUsly done for them, and seem TO
appreciate the Importance Of cO-operat-
ing with US, not only in our medical
work, bl in our efforts to make sani-
taTy Improvements.

JANITORS' HEADS COME OFF
HEWLETT YIELDS A SHARP
ENED AK.
Pete Johnson Given First Place and
Other Republicans Are Installed
Under Him.

noon on the trembling janitors, or rather
Hewlett had a monopoly on the ak They

believed the representatives of the new
party in power would give them time
enough to catch their breath before get

It was confidence misplaced. and Robert
SiGdoway, Howard Wilson and Jacobson
were told to give way to Pete Johnson,
Billy Clovis and Jim Austin on Monday
morning. The old janitoTs did not mind
the firing, but they hardly expected that
it would be done IN the peculiar fashion
employed.
Chairman Hewlett vested Pete with the
authority of chief janitor, ard instructed
him to notify the others. Pete ana his
colleagues had been standing around all
morning waiting for the plums to drop.
When Hewlett and Whittemore appeared
on the scene Pete begged them to do the
firing. but the dignified cOuncilmen could
not scare up the courage.
Clovis was crestfalen when he learned
Pete had beat him out in the race for
boss janitOr. but Hewlett had them join
hands to seal the breach.
As Hewlett and WhittemOre walked up
town the latter could not understand how
his fellow Hannaite had paid of all his
political debts in the First precinct while
Door Dick of the Second got nothing. But
the member from the west side was told
he could have the naming of the fourth

HAY FEVER.

In the beginning Of an attack Of
Hay Fever the patient experiences a
sense of uneasiness about the nasal
passages. with a slight disposition to
sneeze. Gradually these symptoms in
crease, and often there IS an intense
itching of the nasal passages, with
prOfuse watery discharge which ne
cessitates the constant use of a hand
kerchief. In aggravated cases the dis
charge drips continually from the
nose, later the mucus membrane be-
comes so cosgested that the secretions
present a grayish color. The infiamed
mucus membrane naturally causes
more or less stenOsis, or narrowing or
closing of the nasal passages, which
adds greatly to the discomfort Of the
sufferer; oftentimes the nasal passages
are entirely closed up.
If the patient lies on the side, the
nasal passage which is uppeTmOst be
comes open, while the fluid collects in
the parts below; or if the patient lies
on the back the flow passes to the rear
portion, causing a complete stoppage Of
the nasal passages. The fluids which
escape from the nose are often irritat-
ing, and very frequently give rise to
irritation around the opening Of the
nose and lip, and sometimes even re-
suit in eczema. The eyes become con-
geSted and the lips red and ltcnlng. IL
the disease is allowed to run an at
tack of asthma often sets in. The
asthmatic symptoms are usually con-
fined to the night time although the
waking hours are often characterized
by shortness of breathing, which the
patient describes as wheeling.
Hay Fever is a treacherOus disease,
but almost every case yields to proper
care and treatment. Every sufferer
from this insidious and deceptive dis
ease should consult Drs. Shores &
/ Shores at once. and be quickly cured
at little cost.

FIGHT EXPECTED TOMORROW.
Believed That Butler VIII Then Be

New York, Jan. "a dispatch to the
Tribune from London says. While
General French's adroit maneuvers
and gallant repulses Of the enemy's de-
termiued attack are Of superior interest
as incidents Of actual warfare, public
attention cannot be diverted from the
impending battle at the Tugela. Heavy
fighting has been expected from hour to
hour by military men, who could not be
convinced that Sir Redvers Butler

been dispatched from Cape Town 20

proofs of their theory the reports Of
systematic scouting on the upper Tu-
geia near Springfield, the masSng OF
Warren's division at EstcOurt, whence
l. could be sent toward Weenen, and
the organization Of the mule transport
system On a large scale.
The last detail was certainly sigEih-
cant, since no turning movement on the
lower Tugela could be made without
mule transports, but an experienced
veteran who managed the transport
system in the previous campaign in
South Africa, said last night that this
was not conclusive evidence, since the
mule train would be required at once
between Colenso and Ladysmith, after
the passage of the river, as the rail-
way had probably been torn up by the
Beers.
General Butler must have received
yesterday strong cavalry reinforce
ments, consisting of the South African

Sars, and when the last battery afioat,

New York. Jan. 1.-THE Union County
Bank Of Railway, n. J., today placed a
notice on its door announcing that 1t had

unusual demand made upon its by de-

state Institution and has a surplus of

sex County bank Of Perth AmbOy, n. J.,
which was robbed by its cashier, George
NJ. Valentine, there was some evidence
of timidity on the part of the depOsitorS
Of the Union County bank, as President
Edward I. Savage had been Valentine s
lawyer. and the vice president Of the
Union County bank. Milford D. NaIlen-
tine. was an uncle Of the defaulting cash
Ter of the MiddleSex County bank.
1t was known for several days that the
bank accounts were under Investigation,
and this brought on a run.
1t is said about $4,000 was paid out yes
terday and there were still many de-
pOsitOrs awaiting to draw out money
when the bank closed for the day. The
directors had a meeting late yesterday
and as an outcome it was decided not to
open the bank today.
To all inquiries the officers. of the bank

Commissioner Johnson contained about
all the information that at present could

fsnecia1 to The HeraldN

Denver, Colo, Jan 6.-There are
prospects Of trouble ahead for the smell
ter trust more serious than the labor
strike which they won last spring af-
ter two months struggle. Recently,
nearly all the contracts for ore from
Cripple Creek district expired and a
heavy advance was made in the trust
schedule. The mine owners had no
warning and 20 say that they are rails
ing a howl would be putting it mildly.
The American Smelling & Refining
company insists upon higher pay for
treating Cripple Creek ores. Two
weeks ago, when their contracts for
trea tment expired, several Of the larger
mine managers were informed that
hencforth the shelters would raise the
rates. In some cases when the owners
talked with a view to selling their ores
it was divulged by the smeiter men
that the increase demanded VIII aver
age 81 per ton and is excused by the
smelter men on The ground that Grip
pie Creek ores carry no lead and little
silver, hence costly to treat and being
rich in gold values, require the invest
ment of considerable capital in their
purchase and reduction, for which no
interest is received.
J. b. Grant. western manager Of the
trust smelteTs, when asked if there
had been a general advance in the scale
of treatment charges, said:
Is General Advance.
In the cripple Creek district new
contracts are being made at an ad-
vance. but in all other sections of the
state we are signing new contracts for
treatment on the same terms that have
prevailed. There is no change in the
rates for LeadvilIe, Creole, Aspen and
such camps. 1t cannot be said that
the advance on Cripple Creek ores went
into effect Jan. !. Il has been going
into effect for several months past,
just as the old Cripple Creek contracts
expired. There was no money in treat
ing these ores on the old basis"
The cripple Greek district mine own
eTs have protested in vain and man
agements of several Of the larger pro-
ducers refused to sign new contracts
under the advanced rate asked by the
trust. They are storing their ores un-
