mucous membrane, the local symptoms
being a profuse discharge of mucus
stoppage of the nostrils, irritation in
throat, causing coughing, sneez1ng, gag

The usual treatment by local douches
snuffs, salves, ETC., often gives temporary
relief, but anything like a cure can only
be obtained by treatment which removes
the catarrhal faint from the blood and
the disappearance of the Inflammation

quirementS and which so far has been re-
markedly successful in curing catarrh ia

TAX ON ARTICLES OF
GENERAL CONSUMPTION
How England May Raise Revenues

NEW YORK, Nov, 9.7-The London cor

lowing regarding the financial policy of
Great Britain: The presence Of the Chan
cellor of the ExcheQuer on the platform
is not desired by financiers for consols go
down whenever he speaks, although he
contents himself with reminding the tax
payers that war Is an expensive business
They are wondering, however, whether he
will increase the income tax in comment
Grafton of coronation year, or widen the
area of indirect taxation. The price of
consols is affected by the certainty that
there will be borrowing operations on a
large scale.
The Unionist press, under the leader
ship of the Times, is prepared to- welcome
a revenue tariff ON many articles in addi-
ton to sugar and coal. What Mr.. Cham
berlain would do is an open secret-he
would take advantage of the opportunity
for restoring 2 general tariff and con-
verting it into an imperial zOllverein on
lines suggested by his famous speech be-
fore the Canada Club a few years ago.
Sir Michael Hicks Beach lacks both cour-
age and breadth of mirld>fo a complete
transformation of England's financial
policy. He watches revenue returns more
closely than anybody else. and is said to
be convinced that the resources of direct

A Unionist member of Parliament is
authority for the statement that Sir

PORT HURON, Mich, Nov. SIT now
transpires that the Fidelity and Deposit
Company of Maryland, which carried the
bond of Charles D. Thompson, the self
confessed defaulting supreme finance
keeper of the tent of the Knights of the
Maccabees before being released last
July, is still liable for any loss which the
order may have sustained by the defalca-
ton.
Representatives Of the company, it is
said. have informed Maccabee officials
that the loss will be paid. Therefore it is
now probable that Thompson will be ar
rested tomorrow. This was indicated to-
night from a talk of officials of the order,
and the arrest viii come as a result of a
conference between the trustees of the
order and representatives of the bonding
company.
The heaviest loss, it is said, falls upon
the Maryland Fidelity Company as
ThompsOn's defalcations since August,
when the National Surety Company as
sumed the risk, were comparatively small
It was announced to-day that Thompson
shortage was $50, 900 instead of So, 000 All
data concerning the embezzlement are in
the hands of the bond company and or
oers are being awaited from headquar-
tiers.
The most important matter for consid-
eranon before the trustees was the selec-
ton OF a successor for Thompson, but no
successor was announced.

SEEK LETTERS
From BR|CANDs
Authorities Of Bulgaria
Endanger Safety Of
Miss Stone.

+ SOFIA, Nov. S.-The Government last
night caused the arrest of a man who
was visiting United States Consul General
Dickinson and searched him, presumably
thinking he was emissary of the brig
ands and hoping to seize a communica-
ton to or from Miss Ellen M. Stone. The
man was subsequently released.
, This act of the authorities was SEEM
ingly a deliberate attempt to brighten del
egates who might visit Dickinson and
thus prevent negotiations from taking
place IN Bulgarian territory. The attitude
OF the authorities has hampered Dickin-
son, as the brigands refuse to treat in
Turkey.
Dickinson, in his reply to Miss Stone s
letter, urged the brigands to still further
reductions in their demands and to accept
the amount subscribed, in view of the de-
contribute toward the ransom and the
lmposSlbll1ty of collecting further sub
scripticns. 1t is believed the brigands
Will agree to this, as they are now begin
nlng 10 feel hard pressed and want money
for current expenses, such as bribery OF
officials, peasants and others.
The letter insists that the surrender of
the prisoners must precede or be stimuli
taneous with the payment, but leaves the
question of the place open. A messenger
last night brought letter from Miss
GUS communications from Miss Stone
rave been in Bulgarian. This letter says
she is still well and gives valuable in
formation about her captors which Miss
stone was prevented from sending in
Bulgarian.
WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-An that can
be gathered here touching Miss Stone s
case is that the reports from the Levant
are to the effect that some kind of COM
munlcation Is being. maintained, although
very indirectly, between Miss Stones cap
tors and the powers to secure her relea Sc.

II EAVENWORTH, Kans., Nov. s.
All the police, Deputy Sheriffs
and farmers in the country ada
IL cent to Leavenworth were on the
lookout to-day for the twenty-six
federal convicts who escaped from the
stockade here yesterday. As a result two
convicts have been killed, two wounded
and five captured unhurt. The casualties
took place in a fight near Nortonville,
Kan. that resulted in the death or cap
ture of five men. The dead are:
JAMES HOFFMAN, aged 20 years,
white.
J. ]. POFFENHOLZ, aged % years,
white, a soldier convict.
The wounded are; John Green, aged 21,
white, and Willard Drake, aged 10, white.
Fred Moore, aged 16, a negro, was recap
tured unhurt.
The five men were discovered in the
barn Of Fay Weishaar, a quarter of a
mile from Nortonville, Kans., about 8
o'clock this afternoon. WeiShaar Went
into the barn and was ordered out at the
point of guns. He rushed to Nortonville
and gathered a wagonload of men who
with reVOlverS, ShOtgunS and few rifles
FASTENED TO the scene.
The conyicts saw the men coming and
rushed from the barn. They had a rifle,
a shotgun and an old revolver. Hoffman
carried the shotgun. In the running duel
he was struck first in the hand. He yelled
and dropped the gun; Just then bullet
entered his back and he fell dead. Poffen-

ALL BUREAU, 14O6 G STREET,
II N. W.. WASHINGTON, Nov. s.
IL This has been the most interest
~ ing and possibly most important
day in the White House since
Roosevelt became President, because
Senator Mark Hanna of Ohio has for the
first time appeared upon the scene, has
been greeted by the President as an af-
fectionate son might greet a father, has
talked over matters of legislation with
important men in the administration and
has been entertained by the President at
dinner.
1t would be putting it far too strongly 10
say that the President and Senator Hanna
occupy the relations that President NC
Kinley and Senator Hanna did, but the
outcome of the visit of the Senator is that
he and the President thoroughly under
stand each other and each will have the
others help. Coming on the heels OF
Roosevelt's action in again upsetting the
Addicks machine in Delaware, to which
Senator Hanna had pledged his support
with the administration, this may seem
strange. 1t is nevertheless true that there
is to be strong community of interest
between the President and Senator Hanna
at this session of Congress at least.
Hanna Pledges Support.
Senator Hanna has pledged his neartiest
support to Roosevelt. The President will
consult Senator Hanna as chairman OF

AN TARCT|C ICE
BARS HER WAY
Sugar-Laden Bark Finds
a Barrier Below
Cape Horn.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. S-The first
vessel to be caught in Antarctic ice this
season and within 100 miles of the Horn
was the sugar bark Nunanu which locked
at the Spreckels Sugar Refinery to-day
after run of 129 days from Honolulu.
After having encountered two severe
gales on the Pacific Ocean she was
stopped in the field ice in the early part
of September while rounding Cape Horn
on her way to the Atlantic Ocean. Far
to the south the ice could be seen. The
sea was smooth and there was no sign
of land. The weather was fair at the
time and this enabled the Nunanu to
work her way into clear water.
Captain Josslyn, the vessels master,
calculated that the ice was about 800
miles south of Cape Horn. The Nunanu's
run was over 1900 miles. She is the first
of fleet of sugar-laden sailing vessels
bound from the Hawaiian Islands to Phil
adelphia and New York, which, it is said,
are to displace steamers, which have
found the trade Improbable owing to the
long run.
