Swanp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.

and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis

posite view and sustain the contention
of the house. With such difference
of opinion at our side of the capitol 1t
would have been unWise for the SEN
ate to have insisted, even If there had
been votes enough to sustain the po-
sition. If we had ratified the treaty as
1t came to us. without reference to the
consent of the house. 1T might have
produced complications that would
have embarrassed the government for
years 1t would have placed the two
houses of congress in sharp antagonism
which for every reason ought to be
avoided. 1t would have been very
detrimental to our relations with Cuba.
as you can understand. The question
could have been taken into court, but
a situation of this Importance over the
respective powers of the two houses
would have done more harm than good
and would have resulted in serious
complications.
Therefore it was thought wiser and
better. both for Cuba and the United
States. to avoid such complications and
to accept the contention of the house of
representatives as it had been accepted
in a similar manner whenever the
question has arisen before.
This decision. however, was not en-
.tirely voluntary continued Senator
Allison with a smile. The treaty
could not have been ratified without
this provision and one or two other
amendments that were added. Several
times the senate was canvassed. Each
time it was apparent that the friends
of Cuba lacked the two-thirds vote that
was necessary for ratification. and they
agreed that it would be calamity to
force a vote and have the treaty re-
jected
Some of the friends OF Cuba advo-
Gated an immediate extra session of
both houses of congress to settle the
matter. but 1t was useless to take such
action until the amendments to the
treaty had been accepted and ratified
by Cuba, which l understand has not
yet been done. 1t was also shown that
no matter how promptly our congress
might act. it could not ratify the treaty
in time to be of any advantage to the
planters of Cuba this spring. The SUI
gar crop would have been harvested
and shipped to market before the pro-
visions of the treaty could go into eff
feet, but if Congress meets next fall or
early in the winter. 1t can dispose of

within about $50 mills of the north

Traction Company Officials Held for
Causing Nine Deaths.

New York, March Indictments
for the deaths of nine high school girls
were returned at Newark yesterday
against high officials of he North Jer-
sey Traction Company, including A. j.
Cassatt, president of the Pennsylvania

York; DIR. Leslie d. Ward, vice presi-
dent of the Prudential Insurance Com
pany of Newark: Elisha b. Gaddis,

ident of the North Jersey Street Rail-
way Company and of the First National
Bank of Jersey City. and David Young,
vice president and general manager of
the North Jersey company. The in
dicted men compose the executive COM
mittee of the board of directors.
They are charged with responsibility
for the Clifton avenue trolley disaster
of Feb. 10. The road employes--the
motorman, conductor and sandman
were not indicted. Neither We're the
officials or employees of .he Lackawanna
railroad, whose train ran into the troll
ley car City officials also went free.
The indictments are believed to have
been found in Difference 10 public sem
timent, which seemed to divide the real
blame for the disaster between the Off
Gals of the trolley company and the
city officials. According to testimony
taken at the corones's inquest, it
seemed that no city official had any
particular jurisdiction over the run-
ming of cars or of dangerous railroad
crossings.
No official information was obtaina-
Bile last night as to the nature OF the
indictments. but it is said that they will
charge manslaughter. the penalty for
which is from one to ten years impris-
onment, with the alternative of fine,
at the discretion of the court.

dent Ledyard sent for G. w. Russell
general counsel of the Michigan Cen
trail road, and said:

get a raise in salary of $4,000 year. Ii

months. Then the Michigan Central

Mr. Ledyard got ten-page letter from
his old friend. protesting against the

letter was referred to Russell and he

was too strong for this writer to re-
sist, even for $1,000.
