 TO TAKE HOLIDAY
WILL ADJOURN NEXT MONDAY UNTIL JANUARY 6-sPEAkER APPOINTS coMMlTTEEs-eRoW SPEAKS ON PHILIPPINES.

Washington. December 10.-speaker Henderson at the session of the House today announced the appointment of the committees.
 Usually the committees are not appoint ed until after the holiday recess. The early appointment of the committees should facilitate legislation considerably. A general speech on the Philippines was delivered by the venerable ex-Speaker Galusha A. Grow of Pennsylvania MT. Burke of South Dakota announced the death of Senator Kyle and as a mark of respect the House adjourned until Fri day.
 There was a very large attendance to- day in anticipation of the appointment of com mittees by the Speaker
 After the reading of the journal, MT. Richardson of Tennessee, the leader of the minority offered resolution to place upon the House pay roll the four special employees usually allowed the minority. The resolution was adopted without di- vision.
 Mir. Heminway of Indiana, chairman of the special committee to consider and report a bill to fix the salaries of officers and employees of the House, submitted the report of the committee.
 Formal resolution to allow the ways and means appropriations committee to sit during the sessions of the House and to print certain documents were adopted, as was a concurrent resolution for holi- day recess from Thursday, December 19, to Monday. January 6.
 MT Richardson, the minority leader, called attention to the fact that the com mittee on insurlar affairs was out, un- der the resolution, to have Jurisdiction over matters relating to taxation and revenue in the insular possessions He intimated that If the committee was not to consider those subjects it would have little to do.
 MT. Payne replied that there were many other subjects relating to the insular possessions for it to consider.
 MT. Cow of Pennsylvania. the venera- ble ex-Speaker, then delivered a speech lasting nearly an hour on prosI ective legislation for the Philippine Islands. He contended that the constitution con- tained two grants of power under which Congress could govern the Philippines according to it's discretion.
 Speaker Henderson then announced the appointment of the committees of the House.
 At the conclusion of the reading of the committee lists, MT. Burke of South Da- kota announced the death of Senator Kyle of&his State. and at 1:55 as a mari, of respect the House adjourned to meet again Friday.

THE FEAR OF HumBuo
Prevents Many People From Trying a
 Good Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so common and in most cases so obstinate to cure that people are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to be a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and indi- gestion. Many such pride themselves on their acuteness in never being hum- bugged. especially in medicines.
 The fear of being humbugged can be carried too far, so far, in fact, that many people suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk a little time and money in faithfully testing the claims made of a preparation so reliable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets
 Now Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important re- spect from ordinary proprietary medi- cines for the reason that they are not a secret patent medicine, no secret is made of their ingredients, although they are sold by all druggists under protection of trademark, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth. hydrastis and nux. They are not cathartic, neither do they act powerfully on any organ, but they cure indigestion on the common sense plan of digesting the food eaten thor oughly before it has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their success
 Cathartic pills never have and never can cure indigestion and stomach trou- bles because they act entirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble is really in, the stomach
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets taken after meals digest the food. That Is all there Is to it. Food not digested or half diges- ted is poison, as it creates gas, acidity, headaches palpitation of the heart. loss of flesh and many other troubles which are often called by some other name.

 AMERICAN JOCKEY
LESTER REIFF, RULED OFF THE
 ENGLISH TURF, SEEKS TO BE
 REINsTATED, BUT THE JOCKEY CLUB DECLINES TO FAVOR HIM.

New York. December 1o.-When Lester Reiff was ruled off the turf by the Eng fish Jockey Club stewards he sent let ter to them asking for evidence they might have against him which was not produced at the time he was called De- fore them for an explanation on his rloe on Delacey in the Newburns Plate His letter is as follows:
 '.The severity of the sentence which you passed upon me and It's terrible im- portance on my life, will. trust, justify me in appealing to you to state whether any evidence was brought before you, showing that I had illicit transactions with the ring or with the bettings agents of any description. If such evidence were brought before you, I claim from your sense of justice to be informed Of It's nature, so that 1 may rebutt 1t, and show it to be false. This I am confident of doing
 of your sentence were based exclusive ly on the evidence of those who saw the race and who formed the opinion that I did not do my best to win, my character will be much less affected than in the other case"
 Following Is the reply of the stewards just received from London:
 Tn reply to your letter I am directed by the stewards of the jockey club to inform you that after careful considera- ton of the circumstances, they see no grounds for reopening your case. They have. therefore, nothing to add to the notice published in the racing calendar of October 3. The stewards regret that there should have been delay in replying. but 1t was caused by the absence abroad of the senior steward"

THE SENATE,

Washington, December 10.-After con-
 sidering routine business the Senate to- day went into executive session on mo- tion of Senator Lodge, who has charge of the Hay Pauncefote treaty. and ad- journed at 1:55 p. m
 Senator Lodge spoke in favor of the treaty, saying all objectionable features of the last treaty had been rem owed; that the Clayton-B -Bulwer treaty standing so long in the way of canal had been re-
 moved; that the change in article 1 was of material importance He said the concessions were ample for the United States interests.
 The adjournment before further con- sideration was in order to give the Demo- cratic caucus committee an opportunity to consider the treaty
 Senator Lodge said the new Hay- Pauncefote treaty does away with all the objectionable features of the treaty of the last Congress. It abrogates the Clayton-Bulwer treaty of 1850 which he said. had stood constantly in the way Of the construction of an isthmian canal. The abrogation of this treaty, he con- tended, was a most important accom- plishment and he uid not believe that the |sUnited States should or would lose an opportunity to make sure that concession senator Lodge also called attention to the omission in paragraph 1 of article 8 of the words "in time of war as in time of peace" He said that in the old treaty the paragraph read that canal shall be free and open in time of war as in time of peace to the vessels of com | merce and of war of all nations on terms
 of entire equality" etc.
 | He urged that the omission of this
 phrase had the effect practically of leav-
 ing the United States to do with the ca
 nal In time of war according to its own 1 good pleasure. He also referred to the
 omission of the clause which provided
 that mo Notifications shall be erected | commanding the canal or the waters ad- | jacent,' etc.
 It practically left the United States free to fortify the canal in case 1t should be considered desirable to do so. The invitation contained in the old treaty to the various powers to give their ad- herence to the agreement had been elim- mated. Practically, he said. Great Brit ain had agreed to turn the entire man agement of the canal over to the United States not only in time of peace, but in time of war.
 Senator Culberson asked MT Lodge if it was not true that article VIII of the Clayton Bulwer treaty established the general principle of naturalization is not retained in the new agreement but MT
 Lodge replied that while there was a declaration to the effect that the general principle of naturalization established by

 ''Dr. Ravold told me-" said Schmidt that the serum could be safely used as the horse had not been affected with tetanus on September 29, when the drawing was made"
 T knew" the witness declared, that the serum was poisonous and unfit for use on human beings. but I felt that could not question Dr. Ravold's order So I went ahead and carried out the or ders.'
 Schmidt testified that the serum was kept unlabeled in an ice box and that the drawings of different dates were de- termined by the memory of the colored ianitor

Discuss the Japanese.

A motion to refer the Japanese part of the resolution to the incoming executive council provoked a long discussion which was ended by the question being laid on the table. President Gompers said that the convention would make a mis- take if it attempted to secure anti-Japan- csc legislation at this time There Is already powerful lobby at Washing ton, he said, backed up by the Empire of China. If the proposed Japanese leg islation Is pressed 1t would incur the en- mity of the Japanese government and other interests would join hands with the lobby already at work.

Max Hays, the well known so%alist of Cleveland charged that coal mine operators and iron and steel manufacturers want to drive out the Poles and Hungarians who have be- come assimilated and place in their es- tablishments the Chinese because the price of their labor is cheaper. He fur ther charged that these interests and other corporations have a powerful lob by at work in Washington. When the question was put to a vote there was one great roar of ayes and the resolu- tion was adopted.
