CLARK CASE IN THE
SENATE THIS WEEK.
VIII he Called Up On Tuesday by
Senator Chnudler-Navai Appro-
priation Bill to BE Voted on

WASHINGTON, May 13-The senate
tomorrow will resume consideration Of
the naval appropriation bill. and it is ex-
pected that the measure will be passed
during the day. Senator Chandler has
given notice that he will call up the Clark
case on Tuesday, and that he win en-
deavor TO keep it before the senate until
vote is reached This programme will
meet with some objection, but it is ex-
pected the greater part of the week viii
be devoted to consideration Of this case.
Senator Wolcott sometime go gave no.
tice that ne would call up the postofice
appropriation bill, and It is thought that
1t might be disposed OF in day or two.
There may be a clash over the Mon
tana case and other business, but the
Clark contest seems to be the only event
of Importance for the week.

In the House.

The house this week will send to the
senate the last of the general supply
bills-the general deficiency and the mill
tary academy appropriation bills-and will
be ready for adjournment as soon as the
senate passes them and adjusts the diff
ferences between the two houses upon
those already passed or pending in con-
ference. These conference reports on APP
preparation bills are to be given the right
of way from now until the end OF the
session. The house leaders say they viii
be ready for the sine die adjournment
June l, but, allowing for delays and ac-
cidents incident TO the closing up of the
session, they are not inclined to think
both houses will be ready to quit before
June 20.
Later on, IL complications arise in the
senate, the house may emphasize its
readiness TO adjourn by adjourning over
from day to day. while the senate is in
the final throes of dissolution. The gen.
eral deficiency bill will be taken up to-
morrow, and 1t will be followed by the
military academy bill. 1t is understood
the senate army reorganization bill may
be taken up on Wednesday. The remain
der of the week, until Saturday, will be
devoted to miscellaneous matters.

INTERIOR OF UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER.

Our nation is passing through a great
political crisis. Whether our national
policy is to be one of territorial expan-
sion, or whether we are to remain aloof
from international complications, is the
supreme question confronting our Con-
gress. The attention of the world is di-
rected toward us. The deliberations of
eur Congress have come to be of inter
national importance.
But this consideration affects only
our external welfare. Our domestic
problems are not one bit less import
ant. We have serious questions before
us that relate only to home interests.
Chief among them is the health Of our
people. Catarrh has already become a
national curse. Its ravages extend from
ocean to ocean. More than one-half of
the people are affected by it. 1t has be-
come such O serious matter that it has
passed the boundaries of the medical
profession and become national ques-
ton. Senators are talking about it,;
Congressman are discussing it. They
are not only considering the extent and
chronic nature of the disease, but the
possibility of finding national remedy
to meet this national calamity.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1900-01-12

alone had bonds to sell and artiflcially
raised the price of bonds held by
others, by offering more than the
treasury's bid. All the banks began to
accumulate cash for necessary dis
bursements on the first of the year.
Like conditions, except for the treasury
situation, prevailed in Europe, where
the government banks had been COM
PEELED, through scarcity of surplus
money, to raise their interest rates.
The money trust, as we'll as other
financial observers, could calculate to
million dollars the loanable funds in
the markets of the world. The money
trust could suddenly acquire control of
enough of this balance to disturb all
the rest. 1t was done, the money be-
gan to rise. Stocks were shaken out
of weak hands. Prices fell. Money
rates jumped to 20 per cent, to so, to
12O, to half of l per cent bonus for a
days use in addition to the legal rate
that is to 1856 per cent. Banks and
individuals, whose credit was weak, or
whose property was hard to sell, failed
to the tune of many millions.
Why did Mr.. Rockefeller and his
counsellors do it? They wish to get at
shares in properties like the copper
mines, in which millions of their money
is invested and of which they desire
absolute control. They knew of other
rich men in control of corporations who
could oppose their policies, whom they
wished to overthrow. William Rookie
feller, who sometimes does the talking
for his colleagues, had remarked
Stocks are too high" The money trust
remedied that,
The panic over, money rates resumed
their normal level a little higher than
they were a few weeks before the
trusts thunderbolt fell into Wall street.
The trust had obtained it's desires, had
forced from it's opponents possession
into its own the means of power and
the wealth which it had coveted. The
pressure upon prices was removed and
| they rose. A few thousand of men were
| many millions poorer. Stocks as a whole
were worth about $3.50, 100000 less than
they had been.
The trusts lesson-the panic to the
bankers, the spectators, the promo
ters, of new enterprises involving mil
| lions-has been learned well. 1t can be
summed up in this
The Stock Exchange is no longer the
| barometer of the financial world 1t is
the register of the will of John D.
Rockefeller and his coadjutors.

"IlCurablG" Heart DiSGa
Soon Cured.
BY the Great Specialist in
Treating Weak and Diseased
Hearts, Franklin Miles,
M. d., IL. b.
Who Will Send $3.50 Worth of His
New Treatment Free to
Skeptical Readers.

To demonstrate the unusual curative
powers Of this new and complete special
treatment for heart disease short
breath, pain in the side, oppression in
the chest, irregular pulse, palpitation,
smothering spells, putting of the ankles
or dropsy, DR.. Miles will send $250
worth free.
1t is the result of twenty-four years
of careful study, extensive research,
and remarkable experience in treating
the various ailments of the heart,
stomach and nerves, which so often
complicate each case. So astonishing
are the results of this complete special
treatment in most cases that to intro
duce it he will give away $4,000 worth.
About twenty-five years ago DR.. Miles
took several courses Of private instruc-
ton in diseases of the heart under the
presidents of two leading medical coll
leges.
Mr.. ]. S. Zent, state representative
of the New York Life Insurance Co,
OF Indiana, was soon cured after failure
of large number of physicians. Mrs.
Ida Horrell, Of Lone Tree, Iowa, cured
of severe neuralgia of the heart. She
writes: Il began to gain on the first
bottle. 1t produced wonderful results"
MRS. M. Is. Morland, of Rogers, Ohio,
states: For twenty-five years could
get no relief. You saved my life"
f. II. Held, Esq, of Grand Rapids.
Mich, says: MY friends think it re-
markable that DR.. Miles, who did not
see me, could do so much good after
eleven able physicians who frequently
saw me pronounced my case hopeless"
A thousand references to, and testi-
monials from Bishops, clergymen,
bankers, farmers and their wives will
be sent free on request, These includes
many who have been cured after from
hve to fifteen physicians and professors
had pronounced them '1ncurable."
Send at once to Franklin Miles, NJ. d..

acts of the Fifty-Fifth congress-Com-
manded Mr. Gage to take the proceeds
of the sale and deposit them 'in the
United States treasury" One of them,
section 3618, not satisfied with the
single word deposit, says shall be de-
posted and covered into the treasury"
ITO cover into" means, as the Century
dictionary says, ito transfer to, as to
cover the balance of an appropriation
into the treasury"
The fourth of the statutes that apply
to Mr. Gage and his tIansaction-Sec-
ton $3.50 of the Revised Statutes-in-
formed Mr.. Gage that if he did not
put those proceeds in the treasury as
miscellaneous receipts, but instead de-
posted them in other banks or
exchanged them for other funds
than as specially allowed by
by law, for instance, exchanged
miscellaneous receipts" for free de-
posit account" he would be guilty of
the crime of embezzlement and would
be liable to Imprisonment for from six
months to ten years and a fine of the
full amount embezzled-that is, of
SO, ,225, $50.
Did Mr.. Gage deposit those pro-
ceeds in the treasury?
He says: They were deposited in
the National City bank" President
Stillman says THE government has
deposited them in the National City
bank"
Mr., Gage then, according to himself,
corroborated by President Stillman,
violated all four Of the laws and
committed the statutory crime of
embezzlement. He cannot raise the
point that the Standard Oil bank is a
government depository and contend
that a deposit in a government deposit
tory is a deposit in the United States
treasury, within the meaning of the
law. AS the World shows in the news
columns this morning the Supreme
Court of the United States, in a series
of decisions beginning in 1875, and
extending down to last October, the
date of the last case in which the point
was raised, has held that such a con-
tention is, as. Chief Justice Waite put it,
wholly untenable," and that money
deposited in a qualified depository is
not in any sense paid into the treasury.
Mr. Gage and Mr.. Stillman accuse
Mr.. Gage; not only accuse him, but
convict him.
The congress meets today. Will Mr..
Gage wait for it to act? Does he not
realize that secretary of the treasury
who accused and convicts himself of
lawbreaking and embezzlement cannot
possibly remain in the cabinet and at
the head of the financial department of
the nation?
