CHINA HAS LEARNED.
Now Knows How to Play One
Country Against Another.

London, Aug. 27.-Byron Brennan,
British consul at Shanghai, who has
just returned to England said to a rep
resentative OF the Associated Press to-
day.
From the standpoint of foreign in
terests the position in China is far
worse today than before the interna-
tiOnal occupation of Pekin. Formerly
the Chinese believed foreign interests
We're, at any rate to a certain extent
identical. Thanks to recent events
they are now better able than ever to
play of one power against another 50
patiently have the interests of the sew
eral powers been shown to diverge
There is a very hostile feeling in many
parts of Northern China and local dis
turbances may be expected"
Mr. Brennan declared that Russia
and Germany both had far more infiu-
ence with the Chinese government than
Great Britain He believed the United
States would be the greatest sufferer
by the closing of Nanchuria to foreign
trade.

WAR REVENUE BILL.
Very Little Prospect That Deadlock
VIII he Broken.

Washington, February 19.-The status
of the war revenue bill is causing consld-
erable apprehension among members Of
the House, as the two sides are appar-
emily deadlocked In conference with no
present indication that either will yield.
The oonferees have not met since Sat
urday ana no time has been set for a
meeting. Under the circumstances there
was some talk today of q conference or
caucus OF Republican members OF the
ways and means committee to decide up
on line OF action and before the bill is
allowed to fall some such course will be
adopted.
The friends OF the bill are sanguiue
that II 1t gets before the House again,
a motion TO concur with the Senate viii
receive united support on the Democra-
tic side and such scattering support on
the Republican side that 1t Will prevail.
The opponents OF the bill also realize
that this may occur and for that reason
there Is less belief that the bill will fail
although its condition is looked upon as
rather precarious.

Augusta, February 10 The Cumher-
land county delegation held an important
meeting this noon, at whish 1t acted up
on the allotment of the representatives to
the Legislature under tina new state ap-
portionment. The delegation has arranged
the matter so that both brunswick and
Westbrook will for the next decade have
two representatives each. 1t is also
agreed among the members of the delega-
tion that instead OF one Senator from
Portland the chief city In the state shall
in future have two, as It has about half
tine population of the county. The ar
rangement is that Senators Burns and
Staples viii be placed in different sena-
torIal districts and SO they may both be
candidates for reelection. Senator Hods-
don has been serving his second term.
Portland could thus re-elect Senator Vir-
gin and member OF the upper branch in
placs OF Senator Hodsdon. Under the
system now In vogue, Senators have been
elected from the following tewns, olassi

county as far as 1t relates to Senators Is
not governed by the state law but the
above has the sanction of
the delegation and is likely to be adopted
in future arrangements.

portionment the present arrangement is

The doctor went ON to say; 81 have
been preaching this doctrine for the last
forty years, but there are vast multi
tude of women who have never heard it
vet. Catarrh may attack any organ Of
the body. Women are especially liable
to catarrh of the pelvic organs. There
are one hundred cases of catarrh of the
pelvic organs to one of catarrh of the
head. Most people think, because they
have not catarrh of the head, they have
not catarrh at all. This is a great mis-
