BEET SUGAR MEN
Of Michigan Are SkepticaI AS TO the
Relief Promised.

Washington, Jan. 9-Messrs. w. S.
Humphrey, HI. HI. Hatch and James
G.. MCPHERSON, representing the beet
sugar interest of Michigan held a con-
Terrence, today, at the committee room
of Senator Burrows for the purpose of
deciding on a course of action with
reference TO the Cuban reciprocity
treaty. After the meeting they an
nounced that they had decided to wait
until after the committee on foreign
relations should make it's report on
the treaty before deciding on a line of
action. They expressed themselves in
somewhat skeptical terms as to the
possibility of securing any substantial
guarantee that there would be no re-
duction for the next five years beyond
the 20 per cent. provided by the treaty,
saying that their principal fear lay
in the operation of the clause which
protects Cuban sugar to the extent of
20 per cent over all other sugars.
The gentlemen said they had made
no canvass of the Senate and would
make none until after the committee
should report. 5t

ANOTHER BIG STRIKE
Is Promised Among West Virginia Soft
Coal Miners.

New York, Jan. 9.-According to a re-
port of the Chesapeake e Ohio Coal
Co., strike of the soft coal miners in
West Virginia for large advances in
wages will probably go into effect April
l. These miners are not thoroughly
organized, it is said, so the strike will
not begin until Pres. Mitchell of the
United Mine Workers get out of the
hands of the anthracite commission
and can turn his attention to the West
Virginia field.
The output in West Virginia" he
added, lis so per cent. of the total out
put of soft coal in the United States.
The strike will not affect us here di-
rectly. 1t will affect us indirectly be-
cause the New England states\will then
have to draw on Pennsylvania, which
supplies the eastern cities for its soft
coal and this Will eventually increase
the demand for hard coal"

To neglect a cold is to invite chronic Z

should at once begin the use of Peruna J
