It Is Regarded Across Poor Rule That Does Not Work Both Wa, =, here Is Also Discomfort on Account of the UneqL s- vision of the Preliminary Spoils-The Daily Mal Figures Up the Net Results of the Alliance With the Germans.

London. February 1.-The Daily Telegraph argues this morning that the United States should establish a quasi suzerainty over the republics of South America. It says:
 The Monroe doctrine involves that. As things are, a distinct premium is offered to adventurous and irresponsi- ble persons who can boast of ephem- eral authority in these republics to play fast and loose with their external ob- legations. Some day or other citizens of the United might be the victims and then the government at Washington would find itself confronted by an in- vidious dilemma. Either it would have to put up with the defiance or be com pelled to adopt measures the employ ment of which it denied to other pow CTS similarly situated. Such a position would comport neither with the dignity nor the interests of the United States. At any rate, when the Venezuelan difficulty is out of the way, we trust that American statesmen will take the

CHICAGO ARRESTS.

Chicago. February 17.-The office of the Nicaragua company in the stock exchange building, was raided today by government officers and F. D. Bit tinger, Henry A. Burnham and O. N. Vincent were arrested. They were taken before Commissioner Foote charged with fraudulent use of the mails.
 The hearing was continued for ten days. Bittinger's bond was placed at $5,000 while that of his associates was at $500.
 The company was incorporated un- der the laws of New Jersey in 1900 and the home office until last July was al Dayton, O. Many persons are said to have been swindled before the con- cern moved to Chicago. The object of the company as announced in circu- lars was to plant bananas. cocoanuts, pineapples and rubber trees near the Pearl lagoon in Nicaragua.
 The products were to be sold in the United States. Great profits were promised. In June, 1900, s30o,Q 900 worth of stock was offered for public sub scription and $570O0 worth was said tc have been sold within two weeks.

 Scores of persons stood in line foI hours at the office of the concern waiting to get their certificates cash ed. Over 100 persons had been re- funded their deposits during the day.

TALKS NONSENSE.
Says Senator Teller of Dr. Depew' s
 Arguments.

Washington, February 1T.-The sen ate today agreed to a conference on the army appropriation bill.
 The discussion of the statehood bill was resumed and -Ir. Depew continued his remarks in opposition to it.
 After Depew had proceeded some time MT. Teller took exception tu some of his remarks regarding unequal rep resentation in the senate. Advancing to the center of the aisle and speaking with great fervor, MT. Teller said .t was no small thing to talk about changing the form under which tne, government has grown so great and so strong.
 T have listened to a great deal If nonsense" said he. II have listened to Q great deal I consider beneath the dig nity of some, but I cannot listen to MT. Depew's remarks here without saying here as a senator and citizen of the United States that I feel insulted and l feel that the American people will feel the insult from the senator from New York"
 Replying, Mir Depew said he re- gretted that Mr. Teller felt insulted. but "when you add to the minority representation in this senate" he said. and take it further away from the people, you are calling attention to q condition in which you cannot tell wha the people may do in discussions of the future-..'
 MT. Depew had not concluded when at 4:05 the senate adjourned.

Washington, February 11.-(Special) The willingness with which the re- publican senators favoring the state hood bill consented in conference to- day to the consideration of the Panma treaty is another indicG ton of Senator Quay's reliance in the success of his project to carry the statehood bill through on an appropriation bill. It is said tonight that the consent of the senators to this without committing themselves to recognition of the eau GUS has streng thened the statehood measure with republican senators who have been in opposition. No chance of statehood has been sacrificed.
 But for the desperate condition of the treaty the concession would not have been made. It is agreed that if the fourth of March should come with out a completion of the treaty the po- sitiCn of the United States in the isth- mus would be imperiled.
 The consideration Of it may occupy Q week as there is considerable Opposi- tion to it. It would be easy then for the enemies of the statehood bill to debate it to the end Of the session but it has been made clear to them that in doing so they will delay the Cuban treaty and important appropriation bills. They have also been informed that their position in an extra session will not be improved for the fight will certainly be resumed there. It is the vote or satisfactory agreement will be reached on the statehood measure.

ANAEMOTROPHY. Do You Recognize It?

When land is used and not fertilized 1t soon becomes worked out and the crops will be poor and small. So when poor or not well selected food is used the body runs down and the blood be- comes impoverished.
 Physicians call it Anaemotropiy. IL may show itself in the form of rheumn- tism, dyspepsia and bowel troubles, general weakness, fainting spells or other ways, all accompanied by nef- VouSneSS.
