Won't Follow Advice After Paying For

In a recent article a prominent
physician says, 1T is next to i'm
possible for the physician to get his
patients TO carry out any prescribed
course of hygiene or diet to the
smallest extent; he has but one re-
sort left, namely, the drug treat
ment. When medicines are used
for chronic constipation, the most
mild and gentle obtainable, such as
Chamberlain Stomach and Liver
Tablets, should be employed. Their
use is not followed by constipation

GERMAN Potash SYNDICATE.


Berlin, May 3.-John ID. Rockefeller, it

Carolina Chemical Company's designs
on the German potash fields. While
MessIs. S. T. Morgan, C. D. Crenshaw
and f. c. SI,utsbury are the only Amer
icans taking part in the conferences
which are beng held daily at the Hotel
Bristol with the members of the Ger
man potash syndicate, Peter d. BRADLEY
Rockefeller, are at the same hctel, wait
ing for the outcome Of the negotiations
and prepared to finance the project
Mr.. Bradley in behalf of himself and
Mr.. Gibbons, firmly denies that they
are here for any such purpose, but the
potash syndicate people OF Stassfurt
have been so informed
Messrs. Crenshaw and Sputbury,
when they approached the heads of the
syndicate several weeks ago were re-
PEELED. After the Americans had ac-
Quired options on several outside works,
indicating a serious purpose TO break
into the industry, the members of the
Stassfurt again.
Mr.. Morgan wired ThursGay TO the
syndicate members, saying that if they
wanted to see him they must come to
Berlin. Two members of the syndicate
appeared yesterday and had j long talk
with him. The indications are that the
syndicate be broken up at the ter
mination of the present agreement in
1905. The ownership of the syndicate
properties is widely distributed and
buying control of the properties is like
ly to require months and capital ex-
ceeding $4,000, 900. The only thing which
may cause the Americans withdrawal
from the attempt is that some of the
properties operated by the syndicate
belong to the Prussian treasury, which
is also the owner of large unworked
properties. The Americans must secure
a lease of these for long terms IL they
wish to dominate the Industry.

stock market affecting what is known
on the street as the webb Meye,
stocks. was followed up late today b.
a story that warrants had be- ISSUED
for the arrest Of one or more persoru
In this connection. The story was that
an order OF arrest was issued upon az
affidavit made ay Wall street opera
tor who claimed TO have been aeeced
and on further affidavits by members
and employees OF various firms who
alleged they knew the secrets OF the
deal
1t was further said that from infor-

1t was asserted that Justice GeIge-
rich. OF the supreme court, had issued
the warrants. He could not be found
TO verify the statement until late to-
night when he said:
SO far as / can remember the stata-
ments which have been made are true.

correct, though it must be remembered
that l nave d great many papers to
deal with in the course of a day, OF an

hand cannot be too curtain as to wha- :
they contain.
Il remember an order OF arrest was
issued in a civil action upon various
affiidavits charging false and fraudu-
lent representations as to the value of
a certain stock or stocks. 1t was
charged in one of the allegations of the
complaint, TO use the language OF
the affidavit, that wash sales had been
made. which gave q fictitious value ID
the stock. the order OF arrest Was
made only for one man, although I ha..
signed four. Lawyer Brown, however
only wanted ono man arrested and tnat
was because il was feared that IA
would get away
Justice Geige-ich said in conclusion
that he was not able to positively say
who the man was for whom the war
rant called.
Up to late nour tonight no ARE e
