FOR OLDTELEGRAPHERS
CARNEGIE READY WITH PEN
 SION FUND OR HOSPITAL.
But He Favors an Ideal Town where Everything May Be Had at
 Cost and No House That
 Shall Cost Over $2,5OO.
New York Journal.

New York Journal.
 Andrew Carnegie has under considera- tion the gift of large sum of money to be used for the benefit of the aged tel egraphers in this section of the country and it is said that he intends, when sat isfactory plans have been made, to ex- tend his charitable bequest so as to in clude the telegraphers in all parts of the land.
 Recently MT. Carnegie sent to w. C.. Connolly. Jr., of Pittsburg, Pa., this let ter:
 "I have known several Homes for the Aged of specified classes that amounted to but little or nothing, from 'Bulwer's S Home for Decayed Authors down. Old men will not leave home and all it's as- sociations to live in a distant place. Would it not be better to have a pension fund for telegraphers who are aged and invalid? do not see why the Pennsylva- mia system should not be introduced; ; the railroad pays half and the employees about half, and this takes away from 1t the element of charity. Men enjoying thE pensions are really using what they them selves have contributed. If the Telegraph CTS Association would get up scheme like that. I should be glad to give a sum as a nucleus.
 
 sociates and should be glad to give considerable sum. provided the pension scheme could be made available''
 John W. Mackay, President and Col onel Albert B. Chandler. Chairman, of the Board of Directors of the Postal Tele- graph and Commercial Cable Company are deeply interested also in the scheme of providing for old telegraphers.
 Colonel Chandler, when MT. Carnegie returns to this city tomorrow, will see him, and some plan will probably be agreed upon suitable to MT. Carnegie, in accordance with which he will make his deed of gift.
 Colonel Chandler and Mir. Carnegie gre old chums in the telegraph business and MT. Carnegie operated a wire in 1852 for the Atlantic and Ohio Railroad in Pitts burg, while Colonel Chandler had charge of the Cleveland and Pittspurg wires in Allegheny.
 The propositions which MT. Carnegie has in mind are the establishment of a combination club and hospital a general pension fund and the founding of an Arcadia in New Jersey MT. Carnegie is said to favor the Arcadia plan.
 This includes the establishment of a town with lots and houses to be sold at the maximum of $2,5OO each; rentals are fixed according to this plan at sl5 per month and the interest at or ? per cent to go to the general fund. Libraries and cooperative stores are to be established, in which everything is to be given to teleeraphers at cost.
 The decision of Mir Carnegie. which telegraphers are anxiously awaiting all over the country, is expected within a very few days.

GERMANY HUMILIATED.
Member of Reichstag Complains of
 America's Many Victories.

Berlin, Dec. 6.-The United States was frequently referred to during the tarin debate in the Reichstag today. Herr Speck Centrist. said:
 We are asked what shall Germany do without American cottonG l ask what will the United States do with its cot ton? Without an American market. we friendship than America has in ours. l am far removed from declaring a tarfn, war with the United States, but we must preserve our self respect. We do not need foreign countries Who will stand the damage if no commercial treaties are made with the United States? Clearly the United States"
 Hayl Zehereinshel, National Liberal. also devoted a paragraph to the United States. He said: '"The history of our differences with the United States ts one chain of humiliation"
 The Budget bill was submitted to the Reichstag today. The estimates for rev enues and expenditures balance at 49, 742,- 465 marks. Count Von BuelOw. the Inn perial Chancellor, is authorized to bor- row lS2, ,05S, ,945 marks for the meeting or the various items of non-recurring and extraordinary expenditure. The revenue side of the account includes a supple- mentary loan of 35.0O0000 marks. An accompanying explanatory statement notes a considerable deficit and says that owing to the financial position or the Individual States of tte Empire, 1t is impossible to have recourse to ;natricu- lar contributions to cover the 5S.5O0OOO marks required. Therefore 1t is deemed advisable to provide only 24.OO0,OO marks by an increase of the matricular contrl- buttons and furnish the remainder out of the above named loan.

RIGHTS OF GUARDIANS.
Suit for Mandamus Begun Against
 Pension Commissioner.

Washington. Dec. 6-Au issue as to the rights of guardians to the possession of pension moneys was raised m sult for mandamus instituted in the District Supreme Court today against Commis- sioner of Pensions Evans by Margaret Brick of Philadelphia, guardian or George James Brick. formerly a private In the Sth United States Cavalry, to stop the further withholding of S72 per month pen sion payments due the ward for injuries in line of service resulting in lunacy:
 The guardian received notice last Sep tember from the Pension Bureau that to prevent further and unnecessary accumu- iation of pension money in the hands of guardians generally the Pension Bureau had determined to pay further pensions to them only as the needs of the service require. In this case. according 10 the official notice there was an unexpended balance of s9.SS4, which, under United States Supreme Court and Departmental decisions, must first be expended for the wards ben,fit, before further payments will be made; that such funds remain in guardians hands as part of the Federal funds and the guardians are subject to the Commissioners discretionary power, both before and after the death of the wards. The petitioners claim there is no legal authority for the action.

HIGH ATTITUDES.
Food Cannot be Boiled as Quickly as in low.

The curious experiences people have with coffee drinking are worth pondering over if anyone is ailing and does not know the exact reason thereof.
 Coffee is a secretive worker, and through the nervous system affects different parts of the body in different people.
 young married woman, Mrs. T. L.. Blackmon, Oswego. Montana. had a con- elusive experience in the effects of cof- fee on her eyes. She says, 'I have used coffee since d child, but a short time ago my eyes began to grow weak, and the least exertion such as reading or sewing would cause shooting pains and wavy lines of light so that I could see but little else for minutes at a time.
 This alarmed me and I earnestly sought the cause of the trouble. Someone told me that coffee sometimes affected the eyes. I at once decided to quit it and see If I would be benefited, but I must have something to take the place of coffee, for wanted to modify as much as possi- bIe the sacrifice of giving 1t up.
 So decided to try Postum for myself When it came I made it strictly accord ing 10 directions and was wonderfully surprised and pleased with it. Husband says that my Postum is very different, - friends table.
 I frankly own that like Postum better than I ever liked coffee. It has a rich body to it that coffee lacks. I boil it longer than twenty minutes and 1t im- proves 1t. Perhaps it requires longer boiling in the high attitudes. I think 1t does.
 For three months now have been using Postum and have been wonderfully benefited My eyes no longer pain me, and are strong as they ever were My complexion, instead of being sallow as formerly, is clear and rosy. I know to a certainty that my improvement has been caused by leaving off coffee and using Postum, for that is absolutely the only change I have made, and have taken no medicine.
 A Mir. Randall, a friend of ours, has obtained relief from his stomach trouble and headaches by leaving of coffee and taking Postum. We think we know something of the facts about coffee and about Postum. sat.

TO COMBINE SOON
MONTGOMERY LIGHT AND
 POWER co. TO BE SOLD.
Stockholders Called to Meet in New York on Jan. 18th to Sell All Company's Property and
 Transact Other Business.

The indications are that the deal which has been pending several months where by the Montgomery Light and Power Company will become absorbed by Elmer son McMillan & Co. of New York, will be consummated at meeting to be held In New York on January IS.
 Some time ago an announcement was made from New York that Emerson Mo- Milan & Go. was about to secure con- trol of number of light and power and street railroad companies In Southern States. including the Montgomery Light and Power Company. This New York company had already acquired the great power company which is now operating at Tallassee and on this account color was given to the report.
 When the announcement of the pend ing consolidation of interests was made, W. F. Vandiver. President of the Mont gomery Light and Power Company. ad- mitted that negotiations were pending for such a consolidation but said that the matter had not progressed far enough to permit of publication of the plans.
 The latest movement Is the calling of meeting of the stockholders of the Montgomery Light and Power Company to be held in New York city January 15. The call for the meeting says that 1t will be held flor the purpose of selling and conveying all the company's prop erty of every kind. character and de- scription, and for the transaction of such other business as may legally come before said meeting"
 It is significant that the meeting of the stockholders of the Montgomery Light and Power Company will be held at the office of Emerson McMillan & Co.,, 40 Wall Street.
 w. F. Vandiver, President of the Montgomery Light and Power Company, is absent from the city. An official of the company said yester- day that if the sale was consummated it would be done quietly and so far as he knew there would not be any disturb ance of the Montgomery employees of the company.
