SYDNEY J. BOWIE IS
 IN FAVOR OF PARKER
ALABAMA CONGRESSMAN. SPENT YESTERDAY HERE AND GAVE HIS VIEWS ON THE POLITICAL SITUATION AND CANDIDATES.

Congressman Sydney J. Bowie of An niston spent yesterday in Birmingham. In speaking of matters political MT. Bowie said he was in favor of Judge Parker of New York as the democratic nominee for the presidency Judge Park CT not having been identified with any faction would come nearer getting the united support of the party, he thought. than any other man yet mentioned, and these things, MT. Bowie said, were much in the New York jurist's favor.
 In regard to Cleveland, Congressman Bowie said that he took no stock In the idea that the ex-President would again be candidate for the place. He seemed to think that the democratic chances were good if the party could secure har- mony and work together
 Referring to Crumpacker, he said that Crumpackerism was no larger than a man hand today, but would be the bat tie cry of the future. The republicans are determined on another red shirt cam paign, and sectionalism will play an im- portant part in the contest
 On the issue of unrestricted negro suffrage Mir. Bowie feels confident that the democratic party will win, as there are many thinking men in the north who are coming to see the error of the Crum- packer idea.

 Their Own Clumslness.

 Tonight Marvin lies in the Noblesville jail with his arm blown from the socket and his body so terribly mangled that he is on deaths brink. The handful of citizens of Jolietville were awakened about 3:3o by an explosion that shook every house in the village. Rushing into the street they found egreat hole near the Midland depot. Marvin's arm lay on the ground and trail of blood led them down the track where they saw Hunt dragging his wounded companion in hlg flight. When the would-be robber saw the crowd in pursuit he dropped his burden and made good his escape.
 The can of nitroglycerine with which they intended to blow open the door of the safe In the general store slipped from his hand while he and Hunt were walking from the depot toward the store and from then on everything was blank.

 Similar action will be taken in the case of the Chattanooga, building at Eliza. beth port, and it is therefore probable that no further delays wil be encountered in the completion of the Galveston and the Chattanooga, while any show of force or duress on the part of the national government will be avoided
 It Is fully expected that similar action to that about to be taken in the case of the two cruisers will be necessary in the case of some much larger warships now on the stocks.

WANT RECEIVER FOR
 BIG PIPE CONCERN
SENSATIONAL CHARGES MADE AGAINST THE U. s. CAST IRON PIPE AND FOUNDRY co.-sEv. ERAL PLANTS IN ALABAMA.

Trenton June 2O.-Applcation was made in the Court of Chancery today by An drew H. McNeal, of Burlington, N J., for the appointment of receiver for the United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foun- dry company.
 This company has fourteen plants throughout the United tSates, among them being several in Kentucky, Ohio and Alabama. The company was incorporat- ed about three years ago with an au- thorized capital of $SO,OOo,OO0 to make cast iron pipe and foundry work.
 McNeal In his bill of complaint charges extravaganza and mismanagement in the operation of the business of the company He further charges that the company has been operated more with regard to ex- plotting the company's stock in the stock market than for the practical utilization of the company's works; that from its or ganization in the spring of 1901, the com pany's management was dominated by General Samuel Thomas, whose principal occupation, McNeal says, was that of a nromoter of companies and exploiter of stocks.
 McNeal further charges that since the spring of 1901 the company was dominated by It's president, George B. Hayes whose associates, he alleges. were financiers and exploiters of stocks.
 It Is averred that the plant at Buffalo Is operated at loss of $4Oo,OOo, and that plants at West Superior, Wis, Bridge port, South Pittsburg and Newport, Ky, were dismantled and rendered useless and that all of these plants were acquired at expensive prices. It is also charged that for the purpose of exploiting stocks. statements to the public were published showing nearly s1o0O. GOO surplus, which McNeal claims, Is not true.
 In the southern territory the United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry conn., pany has plants at Bessemer and Annis- ton, Ala. and Chattanooga, Tenn. The Bessemer plant gives employment to sev- eraI hundred men.

A WONDERFUL succL.,.
Rowditeh G. Webster's Drug Store
Crowded With Those Wanting Mi
o-na Samples.

No better proof can be given Of the
prevalence of indigestion and stomach
troubles than the people who respond
cd to tie offer of the free treatment of
Mi-o-na at Bowditch & Webster's.
Hundreds of samples were handed
out and at certain hours of the day the
store was crowded with those who
wanted to test the merits of this un-
usual remedy
SO many samples have been dis
tributed that it is impossible to get
more. However, Mi-o-na will not cost
amy purchaser cent unless it cures,
for the proprietors have authorized
Bowditch & WEBSTER to sell every
package under a positive guarantee to
refund the money if it does not cure
In this way any one whose life is made
uncomfortable by dyspepsia can use
the remedy and be his or her Judge as
to whether Mi-o-na helps them or not.
IF it does not Bowditch & Webster
will cheerfully refund the money This
is an unusual offer; but Mi-o-na is an
unusual remedy.
Their is no time like the present to do
thing that ought to be done and any
one who has dyspepsia certainly ought
to cure it.
Today is the best time to begin using
Mi-O-na,
