retary Darling, of the navy department,
has received a cable message from Rear
Admiral Rodgers confirming press dis

From other sources, however, it is un-
derstood that the court martial proceed

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 7.-Presi-

unusual course of trying to muzzle his
cabinet officers. He caused it to be an
nounced today that hereafter all news
as to cabinet meetings will be given out
by Secretary COrtelyou or Mr.. Loeb.
Correspondents are ordered to desist
from asking questions of various sec
retaries, and the secretaries are ordered
to desist from talking
This is a direct result of the stories
which have come out lately about the
disputes which have taken place over the
Cuban sugar legislation. Naturally they
are annoying to the president and he
would rather not have them go out. He
would like to have nothing in the papers
but rosy-hued announcements with the
official trademark on them and the stamp
blown in the bottle.

PROSECUTED
SUITS TO BEGIN IN CHICAGO
Interstate Commerce Commission
Orders First Prosecution and
Sends Attorney West to Take
Charge of the Case,

CHICAGO, March 7.-United States Dis
trict Attorney Bethea has received in-
structions from the department Of jus
tice at Washington to begin legal pro-
ceedings against all railroads centerine
in Chicago whose officials testified before
the interstate commerce commission 10
infractions Of the law.
The form the proceedings wiz take has
not been determined, but it is probable
that injunctions viii be sought Full in
structions have not been received by the
district attorney, and probably VIII not
be until the arrival of W. A. Day, attor-
ney for the interstate commerce commis-
sion, which has requested Mr. Bethea
to have Attorney Day appointed special
counsel to assist the government in pros
ecuting the railroads.
The district attorney today received
from the interstate commerce commits
sion a transcript of the evidence taken
in Chicago in the two recent hearings
and also Of the evidence taken at ses-
sions held recently in st. Paul. Kansas
City, Washington and, New York.
1t is expected that Attorney Day will
arrive in Chicago Monday, wnen a con-
sultation will be held. 1t is understood
that suits Will be instituted not only In
Chicago, but in each city where it may
be deemed necessary to attain the end
desired which is the observance Of the
law as it stands.
1t was said today that under the evil
dence secured in Chicago 1t would be
possible either to bring criminal pro-
ceedings for violations Of the law, or civ
il proceedings with a view Of preventing
further infractiOns. Unless there IS q
change in the plans the latter course viii
probably be pursued If, however. tAe
commission can succeed in getting the
data that some Of the executive OniciaIs
promised when on the witness stand.
it is altogether possible that indictments
will be sought against the representa-
tives of packing houses who accepted re-
bates during 1Sy1.
NEW YORK, March Little surprise
IS expressed in railroad circles at the
announcement of the dissolution Of the
various Western railroad associations and
FOOLS. The result is regarded as inevi-
table in view of the aggressive attitude
Of the Interstate commerce commission.
The abOlishment of the association will
not, 1t is said, affect the Trunk Line as
ISOLATION and the Central Passenger com
mittee. The Trunk Line association has
no jurisdiction west of Chicago, while the
associations, the dissolution of which has
just been announced, had headquarters
in Omaha Council Bluffs, Sioux City and
Kansas City. Trunk Line officials say
that one of the chief reasons for the
dissolution Of the Western pools lay IN
inability TO enforce penalties.

YOUR BLOOD MADE NEW.

Your heart beats about sixty thousara times a day Every drop of blood i. your veins visits every part of your bod, about five hundred times each twent,,y four hours. Is it any wonder that man,, troubles arise when the blood is not rigbt |,
 Is 1t hard to understand why health quickly returns when you take remedv like Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic, a rened,, that purifies and enriches the blood?
 It does far more than that, because if ,s the perfect example of everything that "tonic" stands for. But it would be a wonderful remedy if its power to make red, rich blood was its only property. Tt is far better than so-called blood purifiers because 1t both makes and purifies tha blood.
