Washington, Sept. 29.-Another ope-

case has been progressing satisfactorily,
but it is believed by the physicians
that the second operation will hasten
his complete recovery.
While none of the doctors are willing
to be quoted, they give the most posi-
tive assurance that there is not the least
cause for apprehension, and say that,
on the contrary, there is every indica-
ton of speedy recovery, that the area
of bone affected is very slight and will
not result in any impairment of the
presidents limb, and that there is no
evidence whatever of any matter that
would produce blood poisoning. They
confidently express their opinion that
the president will be up in reasona-
bly, short time, and owing to his robust
constitution will soon be himself.

CAUSE AND CURE OF COLDS.

Exposure of Some Popular Fallacies
on This Perennial Subject.
Considering the amount of ink which
has been used in discussing the subject
of colds, discOuruging small results fol.
lowed. A physician says regarding the
matter: 1.-The truth Is that cold Is due
to an almost infinite variety Of causes,
some local, some practically inevitable,
and no one method will prove effective
in all cases. Very few are the fortu-
nate individuals who never have colds,
and most of those living In our northern
climate must be resigned to having one
or two in the course of the winter, but
one who takes cold readily and often Is
not In a healthy condition and should
seek medical advice. The cause in such
Il case may be local, consisting In some
malfOrmatiOn In the interior of the nose
an irritable state. This fault in ana
tomical construction can usually be
remedied by all operation which Is sell
dom severe. But before resOrting to
this the general system should be Ques-
toned in order to determine whether or
not the fault lies with that. Often this
is the case, even when nasal deform-
ity also exists.
zone of the chief predispOsing causes
of Il cold Is Il disOrdercd digestion, cs-
pecially intestinal digestion as Il result
of overeating or the use of alcohol. 1t
has been said that an underfed man
cannot catch cold. while an Overfed one
can scarcely avoid it, Whether this Is
strictly true or not, there Is certainly
some close relation between the diges-
tive organs and the nose, and inactiOn

Of a cold.
1.-THE adage that one must stuff cold
and starve fever Is pernici)us-a cold
Is a fever, and one of the surest means
Of cutting it short is to take a laxative,
abstain almost entirely from food for
twenty four hours and drink two or
three quarts OF cool water. Another
popular remedy which is really an ag-

A hot drink, hot lemonade, for exam
pie, is good, II the sleeper does not
throw off the bedclOthes the minute he
drops off: but the alcoholic addition il
not merely supertiuOus but Injurious.
Alcohol in any form predispOses to a
cold and retards the cure Of one al
ready present. Cool bathing, deep
breathing, daily exercise in the open
air. fresh air in the house at all times
and especially in the bedroom at night,
abstemious living and not letting
waste materials accumulate in the
body-these are the best means Of re-

NO COMPETITION
THE BRITISH-AMERICAN TOBACCO
WAR ENDS.
Combination of Two Big Trusts
Which Will Now Reach Out For
the Trade of the WOrld..-Each to
Be Supreme in Its Own Former
Territory.

London, Sept. 29.-The tobacco war
has been ended by the amalgamation Of
the American and British interests. An
official statemant covering the details.
and subscribed by the officers of both
combines, will be given out later.
The result is that the Imperial COM
pany will, as agreed between the hith-
erto competing parties, be left in pos
session of the trade of the United King
dom, while the American company is
not to be disturbed in the United
States and Cuba, and the British mer-
lean company will compete for the trade
Of other parts of the world.
One of the high officials OF the Amer
lean company said:
1.-THE capital of the Bitish- American
company is to be $50, 100000 Mr..
Duke will be president. While it is
convenient to register it as an English
company and have its headauates in
London, we have named twelve direct
ors and the Imperial company's inter-
ests have named six. Their respective
financial interests are two-thirds Amer
lean and one-third English. There is
nothing to prevent transferring the
headquarters to America if it ever
poves more convenient to operate here,
but at present the BUSINESS can best be
carried on in London.
''We have named three directors for
the board of the Imperial company,
which will hereafter confine itself to
the United Kingdom, while the Brit
ish-American company goes in for the
worlds trade, outside of the United
States, Cuba and the the United King
dom. The Cuban provision insures for
America the business of the island, of
which we now control 80 per cent. The
Imperial company throws the new COM
pany into colonial business, so with our
trade outside the United States, the
British American company starts with

sunk FISHING BOAT
Russian Gunboat Captures Japan.
csc Crew and Sinks
Vessel.

Seattle, Sept 29.-Russia has trained
the guns of her war vessels and sunk a
Japanese fishing boat, an incident that
may result in international complica-
tions. This news came from the far
north by way OF the steamer John 5.
Kimball.
The war vessel destroying the Japan
ese boat was the Russian cutter iakut.
The latter arrived at Nome two weeks
ago.
1t appears that while the cutter was
cruising in the Sea OF OkhOtsk she fell
in with large Japanese fishing boat
The Japanese, as soon as they saw the
cutter, attempted to make their escape,
as they were fishing within the limit,
which. according to Russian law, is ten
miles. They had Il very good start, and
their boat was unusually swift, but the
revenue cutter speedily overlook them,
but it was necessary to fire shot
across their bows before they realized
that they were in the hands of the Rus
sian bear.
The officers OF the Japanese boat,
with their crew, were soon transferred
to the Russian gunboat and placed in
irons between decks.
The Russian boat then sailed away,
after firing few shots from her bow
gun through the hull OF the fishing YES
sell. when she slowly sank The reason
such drastic measures were taken by
the Russian officials is that the boat
had been suspected for some time OF be-
ing a pirate and of robbing the scat
tered inhabitants dwelling on the shore
OF the Sea OF Okhotsk.
