Government Has Been Approached
 as to It's Consent.
 WASHINGTON, March Thus far the United States government has not received formally an application from the Commercial Gable company to land a Japanese cable on the island of Guam. The government, however, has been ap- pealed to in tentative way by repre- sentatiyes of the company so as to as- certain how the United States would view such an application if it were made. No decision has been reached, although, in the light of present in- formation, there is a manifest disposi- ton to regard such request as entire ly reasonable and proper.
 Russia has made no protest to this government against the granting of permission to land the cable at Guam. It is assumed by Washington officials that if protest is made it will be filed through regular diplomatic chan nels. What action the United States would take in that event cannot be foretold, as it would depend entirely on the circumstances of the case.

Catarrh Quickly Relieved.

A Mir John l.. Donohue popular young man who lives at IS Fuller street city, makes a voluntary state ment of the benefits of the Radio Chemic treatment. He says: Il sui fered from childhood with eatarrh of the head and although I had used or dinarv treatment for months at a time I grew worse instead of better. The disease made me weak and ? cough cana on me. 2 1 became dis couraged, thinking could never be cured My stomach became affected with the catarrh I could eat, but it did not nou1ish me- My nerves got into a bad condition. Hearing of the great success of the Radio Chemfc physicians in curing such dis eases, consulted them and had an N-Ray examination. They said l could be cured and I began treat ment with them. I have been get ting better ever since and can recon" mend the X-Ray doctors to all who suffer as I did. (Signed)

The presidential candidate situation is again agitating the solons at the na- tional capital. The death of Senator Hanna has clarified the atmosphere so far as the republican situation is con cerned. and there is no longer any doubt that President Roosevelt will be the nominee of the republican conven- tion. That is conceded on all sides and by all republicans. The only ques- ton now coming before the people who are active in politics is, who will be the nominee of the democratic party. A good many of the men who, says a Washington writer, six months and even six weeks ago laughed at the Hearst boom, now are looking serious and admit that they will have to reckon with the Hearst movement as one of the serious factors in the demo- cratic convention. It practically has narrowed itself down to q fight of the field against MT Hearst. They see that he has made and is making such inroads into the rank and file of the democratic party that they must do something to stop the movement or 1t will be Hearst on the first ballot

Courtland, Kan. possesses the unique distinction of having the only basket ball team in this country composed exclusively of married women. It is interesting to watch the evolution of sports among women, especially in lnis instance, where the life of the team was originally intended not to exceed two days, it having been organ ized solely as novelty for the annual jubilee, says the Sporting News. Mrs c. A.. Kimball Mrs O. H. Kinman, Mrs w. W. Pinkerton, Mrs w. w. Stewart, Mrs +. A. Workman, Mrs J. N. Marty and Mrs l.. Shelton, who make up the team, were so pleased by the benefit they had derived from the comparatively short period of practice, they voted for a permanent continua- tion of the organization. Although many games have been, played this team has yet to experience it's first de- feat. The game was found so inter- esting. and the little ailments to which many of the team were victims so ap' preciably> lessened that the community has had an object lesson in the advan- tages women may derive from the pur- suit of sport in which energy and mental effort are combined.

The extent to which the war domi- mates the financial markets in Europe Is seen by the numerous failures in Berlin, Paris and other centers, due to speculations based upon the mistaken theory that hostilities between Russia and Japan would be averted. says Banker Clews. Whether the troubles of those who erred in this respect are ended Or not cannot be told at this time, and it remains to be seen what further developments will bring forth. No doubt these troubles have been az gravated by large operations for the fall. which precipitated a temporary panic on the Paris bourse.2 and was not at all surprising in view of the immense holdings of Russian bonds in France.

LONDON, March In introducing the naval estimates in the house of commons MT. Ernest G. Pretyman, secretary to the; admiralty, made the usual explanatory statement.

The secre- tary said that despite the heavy esti- mates the naval policy of Great Brit ain was purely defensive.
