REDUCE STEEL DUTIES
Mr.. Ba abeoek Springs a Surprise
on Com mittee. and Almost
Gets 1t Through-.Wash-
ington News.

Washington, Feb. 4.--The ways and
means committee of the house by
unanimous vote yesterday ordered a
favorable report to the war tax re-
duction bill. A surprise occurred
when Representative Babcock, Repub-
lican member, offered his bill largely
reducing duties on the steel schedule
and placing some articles on the FREQ
list, as an amendment to the tea re-
peal section. The amendment was de-
feated. to 7, Messrs. Babcock and
Tawney and all the Democrats voting
in the Affirmative.
The Cuban reciprocity question also
came up Unexpectedly. Representative
Steele, of Indiana, moving 25 per
cent concession on Cuban sugar. The
motion was withdrawn, however after
brief exchange of comment.
Both majority and minority reports
were filed on the war revenue repeal
bill. The majority report says the
probability of early withdrawal OF
troops from Cuba and the reduction OF
the force in the Philippines will make
further reductions possible and also
reviews the condition of the treasury
The minority report approves the
proposed reductions, but asserts they
should have been made long ago II
also advocates a general revision OF
tariff taxation, with the retention OF
taxes on accumulated wealth. There
is general denunciation of the Ding
ley law.

Columbus. Feb. 5.-The legislature
is again flooded with bills. The num-
ber has now reached 800 in the house
and 72 in the senate. There is enough
work before the house now to keep 1t
here all summer. The most important
bill that interests eastern Ohio people
Tuesday, was probably the redistrlcting
bill of Mr.. Allen. He would change
Lucas county and Franklin county and
make few changes around them that
affect those counties only. The Eight
teenth district Is left as 1t Is. In fact
there is now hardly any likelihood that
the Eighteenth will be changed.
In tho senate bill by Senator
Roudebush, of Cincinnati, to provide

THE day was when men Of promi-
nence hesitated to give their testi-
monials to proprietary medicines
for publication. This remains true to-
day Of most proprietary medicines. But
Peruna has become SO justly famous, its
merits are known to so many people Of
high and low stations, that no one hesi-
tates to see his name in print recon-
mending Peruna.
A dignified representative Of the Pres
byterian church in the person Of Rev.
E. G.. Smith does not hesitate to state
publicly that he has used Peruna in his
family and found it cured when other
remedies failed.
Rev. z. G.. Smith, pastor of the Presby-
terian church of Greensboro, Ga,
writes:
"Having used Peruna in my family for
some time il gives me pleasure to testify
to its true worth. My little boy seven
years of age had been suffering for some
time with catarrh of the lower bowels
Other remedies had failed, but after
taking two bottles of Peruna the trouble
almost entirely disappeared. For this
special malady consider it well nigh Q
specific. AS q tonic for weak and worr
out people 1t has few or no equals,"-

Retail Price Moved up
To 20 Cents.
INCREASED DEMAND
Is Responsible For tho Advance
--live Stock Markets Re-
ported Dull, But No
Lower.

Saturday evening, owing to a short
age in supply, Canton dealers advanc-
ed the price of eggs to 20 cents a
Dozen. Monday morning this price
still prevailed and it is thought this
will be permanent At IA cents doz-
en- it was hard to secure enough to
supply the demand, so the paying price
had to be advanced to 16, necessitating
an increase in the retail price. Dealers
say that there never was such de-
mand for fresh eggs as this season.
which is due mainly to the high price
asked for all kinds of meats.
In all sections of the country the
cattle market is reported dull and lit
tie doing, yet in spite of this fact
prices are no lower. This is owing to
the high rates still paid in Chicago
by the packers who control the situa-
tion. Prime steers are quoted there at
$3.50 and $3.50.
