V. Place. who came here as head of the
Economic Association recently, will un-
doubtedly be one of the members of the
tariff commission. He made a very favor
able impression upon Secretary Root, Col.
Edwards and others with whom he came
in contact upon his visit here.
1t is not thought advisable at the War
Department to delay the reformation of
the Cuban tariff for political reasons. Even
If Cuban independence should be estab-
lished, and the United States should with
draw from all active Intervention in the
affairs of the island, this could hardly be
attained within the present calendar year.
1t will be necessary after the adoption Of
the constitution and it's acceptance by the
United States to hold elections, complete
the count of the votes and inaugurate the
new government before even the machinery
Will be in operation. Then would come
other matters, more interesting to the av-
erage Cuban legislator than the adjustment
of an equitable tariff 1t Is not considered
therefore, at the War Department that
the work Of the tariff commission will be
thrown away, even If Cuban independence
should become a reality within the short
est time within which it can reasonably be
expected.
The new tariff will be uniform against
all nations, including the United States
and would probably be continued by the
Cuban government. The subject Of reci-
procity with the United States will be
taken up separately. 1t is felt in well-in-
formed ciroles that the initiative in reci-
procity concessions should come from
Cuba, because It Is vital to her prosperity
that her sugar and tobacco should find a
ready market IN the United States, and
should enjoy favorable conditions of COM
petition with similar products from other
countries.
General Wood and the Secretary of War
are in daily telegraphic communication re-
specting the progress Of the work of the
Cuban constitutional convention. The lat
est advices from General Wood, so far as
n Iera6 70 hn aGfA @I,o% est,
quiet in Cuba and that the convention is
giving careful consideration to the decla-
ration of Congress in regard to the future
relations between Cuba and the United
States. 1t Is stated at the War Depart
ment that there is no purpose of increasing
the military force In Cuba.

TO BE Needed NOW.
Ia the Spring You Are Always
Run Down.
This VIII Tell You Just What To
Do For Yourself.
And Just Why You Should Follow
Exactly This Plan.

In the spring everybody needs to
think about taking a spring medicine.
Not only is this common practice, but
. very necessary and healthful one. 1t
is fact which physicians acknowledge
and the people recognize generally,
that Q spring tonic taken during the
months of March. April and May is
more conducive to the restoration of
health, in cases of those who are sick,
than any other course of treatment that
could possibly be adopted.
In the spring there are great many
and important changes going on in the
body. Perfect health cannot be main
tanned while the system is clogged and
the organs sluggish, and the person has
q languid aud weakened feeling, with
more or less nervousness and debility.
Therefore everybody should take a
good spring remedy.
The best spring medicine, indorsed
and recommended by physicians, drug
gists and the people, is DIR. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy. In
proof of this, thousands of testimonials

Your Grasp.
Dr.. Grssns's hsrVura Makes You
Strong and Well.
It is the Great Restorative Of Brain
It is the Great Restorative Of Brain
and Nerves.

Oh, those nerves of ours, how they do
bother us Weak, tired, and nervous is
the complaint everywhere. We over
work, dissipate, weaken our bodies,
ruin our health, and finally break
down. S1eeplessness and indigestion
are early symptoms, for the nerves are
too exhausted and irritable to permit
rest, and the stomach too weak to
digest food.
1t is nerve and brain exhaustion
which makes the brain tired, and the
arm nerveless, the limbs trembling,
the muscles weak, and the whole body
without strength, energy or ambition.
It is loss Of nerve and vital power
which is slowly but surely sapping the
very life itself, and unless help is
sought from the right source, the end
will be shattered nerves, insanity with
softening of the brain, nervous pros
tration, heart failure, paralysis or pre-
mature death.
Beware Of such symptoms A well
known druggist, Charles w. Eggles-
Mass, suffered from nervous prostra-
tion and all its terrible symptoms. He
writes the following letter telling

"Some time ago I was taken with
nervous prostration, l suffered terribly
with my nerves and could get no sleep
at all. became fearfully exhausted,
my stomach was in terrible condition
from dyspepsia, and I could eat hardly
anything;
out benefit. Being in the drug bust
ness myself, and having had many
customers speak in the highest terms
Of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, 1 determined to try it.
After taking only one-hah bottle I be-
gan to feel much better.
81 slept soundly all night, and my
appetite was splendid. After taking
three bottles, ate three square meals
a day, and had not the slightest dis
tress My nerves were perfectly strong
and l felt like a new man, being COM
pletely cured of all my troubles.
"Out of the respect bear the manu-
facturers of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, and my desire to
have the sick and suffering made well
and strong, unhesitatingly say that
this medicine is the best and most
wonderful remedy known to-day.
1T does just what is said of it, 1t
cures disease. Don't hesitate to use it,
sufferers, for you will never regret it.
You will be made well and strong"
AS this letter is from dealer in
medicine, his word is authority on such
matters. Everybody knows that DR..
| Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem
edy is the great leading medicine Of
the age. Take it and you will be
made strong, healthy and vigorous.
| Doctors recommend it because it Is the
prescription Of a physician, and be-

Valuable Records Destroyed I'm Build

The building owned and occupied by the

road Company in New York city was badly
damaged by fire Saturday evening. Geo.
w. Brady. assistant division superintend-
ent of the railway company, said the dam
age to the building and the valuable rec
ords stored there would probably aggregate
$250.0O0 Thirty clerks employed in the
building at the time of the fire escaped
with difficulty. William Lindsey, one of
the clerks, fell down two flights Of stairs
and was internally injured.
The building was 300 by 40 feet and
three stories high. In it were the through
freight, passenger. baggage and freight
Offices. Except on Sundays there are en-
ployed about $50 clerks. Stored in what
was known as the record room,' in the
middle of the top floor. were records valued
by the company at million dollars. Aside
from the temporary inconvenience caused
by the fire, the company will not suffer on
account of the destruction of its records,
as fire had been anticipated and duplicates
are on file in Jersey City and Hartford
The fire was discovered in the record
room. The thirty clerks were already pre-
pairing to quit work. What started the
blaze is not known.
