Amended Hay-PauncefOte Treaty
Leaves for England on Tuesday.
WASHINGTON December 22.-The
Hay-Pauncefote canal treaty with the
Senate amendments, was received at
the State Department shortly after
noon to-day. 1t was transmitted from
the Senate through the White House.
With the treaty as a simple statement
signed, not by the President pro TEN
Of the Senate. by by Mr.. Bennett, the
secretary, reciting the action taken
by the Senate on the convention.
The State Department will forward
the amendments in the usual course 20
the British government and they will
be on their way to London by the
steamer which leaves New York next
Tuesday. This action is rather more
rapid than is usual in treaty making.
Once it is taken, there will be moth
ing more for the State Department to
do until the British government has
passed the amendments, provided an
unconsciOnable period Of time is not
so occupied.

previous record for i y finished squares

was only 10000 lbs. This mill was
built by the Morgan Construction Co.

consisted of one train of Morgan con-
tinUOus roughing rolls and one ten-inch
finishing train of rolls. each driven by
separate engines. 1t was designed to
receive steel from the blooming mill
and finish it without relocating, and it's
estimated capacity was 200 tons in "a
hours. AS finishing bars from the mi

naces were put in. When the Aetna

Gus heating furnaces were put in and
the mill run eight hour shifts and then

ORE RATES REDUCED.
Minnesota Commission Makes n Big
Cut in Railroad Tariffs.

Cut in Railroad 1ar1ffS.
ST. PAUL, December 22.-Orders
have been issued by the Minnesota
railroad and warehouse commission to
be served on the Duluth, Missabe and
Northern, and on the Duluth and Iron
Range compelling a reduction in ore
carrying rates as follows:
The rate of the Missabe road, which
has been 50 cents per ton is reduced 10
60 cents; the rates in effect on the Du-
luth and Irong Range road 80, 80 and
100 cents are reduced respectively to
so, 20, and so cents.
As ordered by the commission, the
rates contemplate reduction in the
net earnings of the Missabe road of
about 1000, goo which, on the basis of
last years surplus would leave a net
income of $45l 0S9. If the same per
cent. Of reduction is caused in the
net income on the Duluth and Iron
Range their net earnings will range
in the neighborhood of 100000. The
commission believes that these net in
comes represent a fair return on the
capital invested and upon that basis
they contend their action is not I'M
just. 1t is not known what course the
roads contemplate since there is no
traffic in iron ore during the winter
months.

good week until the gas played out on

Local Labor Briefs.

The big Riverside mill at Benwood
continues on double turn, and it is
said that a sufficient number of orders
have been received to keep it running
full for three months. Workmen are
still engaged on the Company's new
blast furnace at Bogg's Run, but oper-
ations have not yet been resumed on
the new open hearth steel plant A
force of bricklayers continue at work
on the inside of two of the four stoves
for the blast furnace, and the struc-
tural iron is being rapidly placed in
position for the other two. 1t will be
several months before the plant is
ready for operations.
The puddlers and Heaters of the
Whitaker mill returned to work during
the week, after being idle for four
weeks. The entire plant is now work
ing full, and have orders that will keep
it busy for weeks. The frame work Of
the new sheet mill is nearly com
pleted, and when this addition is
ready for operations it will add ma
terially to the capacity of the plant.

anew Something Besides what III
Read in Books.
The wise, UP to date, modern
doctor is no longer tied down to
the hard and fast rules of what his
medical books say he shall use and
what he may withhold in treating
his patient.
The successful doctor nowadays
is the one who is quick to avail
himself of any remedy. new or old
which holds out a chance of cure
no matter whether it is Alopathic,
Homeopathic or neither one.
DR.. Jennison, in an interesting
article on Indigestion and dyspep-
STA says: "Nine-tenths of all peo-
pie, who apply to me for advice
and treatment think they have this
ailment or that ailment, but l find
on close examination that their
whole trouble arises from poor d.
gestion.
They have little appetite and if
they do have an appetite the food
they eat does them no good. Why?
Because it is but half digested,
causing thin blood, weak nerves,
sleeplessness, aching bones, pains
in chest, formation OF gases, belch-
ing, etc. They tell me they believe
they have consumption, or heart
disease, rheumatism, nervous pros
tration, in fact most every disease
but the right one.
In reality the whole trouble is in
the stomach and nowhere else.
Now what l do with such people?
| don't feed them on pre-digested
foods like babies, nor stomach
bitters,' nor patent nostrums which
| know nothing about. No honor
able physician will prescribe a rem
edy unless he knows what it con-
tains and its probable effects.
For all such patients l have but
one prescription. l advise them to
go to the nearest drug store and
get a so cent box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. I use them with
remarkable success in all cases of
indigestion and stomach trouble,
because | know what Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets consist of and what
they will do. They contain the
vegetable essences, diastase and
government test pepsin, which are
the things every weak stomach
lacks to restore natural digestive
vigor, and if | had dyspepsia my
self it is the one remedy l should
take
When a patient comes to me COM
planning Of dull headaches, sour
stomach, bad taste, nervousness,
belching of gas, or heart trouble,
which is generally caused from in
digestion, tell him to take one or
two of Stuart's Tablets after each
cal and as often during the day as
he has any trouble and | feel con-
fident I have given that patient the
best advice l could give"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
large, pleasant tasting lozenges,
containing diastase and pepsin
combined with fruit and vegetable
essences. They are not cathartic
and do not act on any particular Or
gan like ordinary drugs, but SIM
ply act entirely on the food eaten.
They are a natural digestive, pure
and simple.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
sold by druggists at 80 cents per
package throughout the United
States, Canada and Great Britain.
