him by Mr.. Farquhar, relative to the re-

Mr.. Cleveland says:

Catarrh usually starts with cold in the
head, and~if left unchecked in this climate,
rarely gets we'll of itself.
AS fresh cold is taken the disease spreads,
getting deeper and deeper, creeping along
the mucous membranes from nose to throat,
from throat to windDiDe, from windDiDe to
bronchial tubes and from bronchial tubes to
lung cells.
The mucous membranes all connect. one
with another Hence it is easy to spread
from one part to another lined with this
same membrane. This is why catarrh in the
head soon affects the throat and finally the
stomach itself, bringing on chronic catarrh of

BOOKING OF RAILS
Over Two Million Tons for Delivery
This Year.
PIG IRON CONDITION IS MIXED
Demand for Structural Material II
Heavy and New Business IL
Being Placed.

New York, Jan. 23.-The Iron Age in
it's current issue estimates that 2,350,00O
tons of rails already have been booked
for delivery in 1902 The condition of the
pig iron market appears to be somewhat
mixed, with disposition among buyers
in some quarters to walt. Following is it's
review:
Of further Improvement in the coke situa-
ton and in the handling Of freight. The coal
operators generally throughout the country
are complaining of a scarcity OF skilled miners.
Ore prices have not yet been finally estab-
ished, although an announcement is looked
forward to soon. In the pig iron trade, in
terest now centers in the third and fourth
quarters Of the year. In some sections and
in some,departments of the trade buying is
reported on quite liberal scale, but it looks
as though the majority OF consumers are not
disposed to await further developments be-
ing covered pretty far. ahead. For spot iron
all sorts of prices are being paid 1t appears
that the steel rail mills now have on their
books for 1902 delivery about 2,350.000 tons,
which is pretty near the full capacity. Under
the circumstances it is not surprising that
the Mexican Central order for about So, 900 to
10000 tons has gone abroad. Reports have
it that a large order has been placed by an
American road with foreign makers for gulf
delivery. The Pacific coast probably will be
extent upon imported rails. Some small or
ders already have been placed and large
quantities seem likely to follow.
The demand for structural material is very
heavy, and, as our local reports show, a good
deal of new business is being placed. It is
reported that in December the leading inter-
est, the American Bridge company, booked
orders aggregating close to $4,000 tons, and
that at the rate at which contracts have been
entered this month, the tonnage will be du-
plicated. The company has now on hand Or
ders for about 100000 tons, equivalent to eight
months output. Somewhat conflicting &C
counts are being received as to the plate
trade. The capacity has been SO much in
creased of late that even the great ship
building, bridge building, car, locomotive and
boiler shop orders do not seem to afford GER
tainty beyond two or three months. In the
sheet and merchant pipe trades, employment
is fair, but the outside mills are making an
impression. The skelp trade is light. On
bars, the reports from the west are very en-
couraging. .-
In the wire trade prices are again frmer,

Washington, Jan. 23.-The Minnesota

republican membership. A further con-

state is concerned, the prospects for the
adoption Of some measure which will be
satisfactory to forest reservation ad-

cut seems almost certain. Representative
McCleary said:
It seems to me that Judge Morris and Mr.
Tawney are both right. Each Of them en-
phasizes a different phase of the question.
When Judge Morris says that trees which
are mature should be cut, he is emphatically
right. When Mr.. Tawney says it is desir-

THE FACTS CLEARLY STATED.

The letter of Maj. w. w. Williamson.
addressed to Capt. Geo. NJ. Hope of At
Ianta, published in the Morning News
yesterday is a clear and forceful
statement of the facts upon which the
Savannah military based their refusal
to take part in the annual shooting
tournament at Seagirt while it is under
the management which conducted it in
1S99-the year the wrong was done the
Georgia team-and also of the reasons
why they think Georgia cannot be
honorably represented at Seagirt as
long as that management continues,
unless reparation is made for that
wrong.
1t states frankly the reason why
there should be an explanation from
the Governor for permitting the Geor-
gia military to be represented at Sea-
girt this year, knowing as he did all
the faSts relative to the treatment the
Georgia team received there in 1899.
The statement leaves no doubt in the
mind of any candid man that the Geor-
gia team on that occasion was the VIC
tim of a fraud, and shows that the
team was accorded shabby treatment
when it protested against the wrong
and asked for hearing and justice.
Maj. Williamson has very little to
say in regard to Capt. Hopes state
ment, made in defense of the Governor
and the Governors Horse Guard, ex-
cept to deny that it is true. There was
not much else to say, since it did not
meet the issue. Maj. Williamson
points out that Capt. Hope and the
Horse Guard team were present at Sea-
grit in 1899 and were Sin entire accord
with all the other Georgians in every
position they took" Naturally Mai.
Williamson asks, what has brought
the changer"
That was practically the question the
Morning News asked in it's first article,
calling attention to the feeling in mill
tary circles in Savannah in regard to
the military of the state being repre-
scented at Seagirt and the Governor
permitting it to be represented there
That question has not been answered
yet.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Should the Republicans succeed in
holding control of the House with this

be one of the party's most notable VIC
tories"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says:
"a Martinsville (Ind.) preacher, who

speech on the trusts in Utah, was
