People Who Want to See Greenland
Must Get a Royal Permit.
Greenland is governed III a grand
motherly way by Denmark; but, as it
consists of a group of colonies which
would not under any circumstances at
tract many tourists or traders, no out
slider complains of the exclusiveness of
the Danish authorities Trade always
has been and still is monopolized by
the state, and only government vessels
are allowed to sail in Greenland wa
ters. For foreign travellers also Green
land Is closed country unless the trav,
eler in question has beforehand OBJ
tanned the rare distinction of gaining
the permission of the Danish govern
ment,
The monopoly of the trade Is said to
protect the Greenlander from being de-
ceived by INSCRIPTIONS merchants. The
administration settles fixed price both
for the goods the G ~ nlanders pur-
chase and for the products they sell
In this way all are treated in the same
manner, and the business being car
ried on by the state is a guarantee
that the natives are not imposed upon. !
Furthermore, the members of the ad-
ministration are enjoined to take care
that the natives do not leave them
selves short of produce by selling more
than they can dispense with. so that
they are destitute of needful food and
clothing when the slack time arrives.
The native Greenlander never has been,
neither Is be now, able to purchase a
single drop of spirits from the admin
istration.
The exchange of goods between
Greenland and Denmark is, as rule,
carried on exclusively by means of the

Minister Bunau-Varilla Donates to de
Iessep's Monument Fund.

AS soon as he learned of the ratification
by the Senate Of the Panama canal treaty
yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Bunau-Varilia,
the minister from Panama, sent the fol-
lowing cablegram to President Amador of
the republic of Panama:
1.-The Senate has ratified the Hay-Bunau-
Varilla treaty. This great historical fact
insures the completion of the Panama
canal and the protection of the Panama
republic. 1t crowns my laborious cam
paign of fifteen years on the political and
diplomatic fields to save the honor of the
great French conception as had previous
iy saved its life on the technical field after
four years of warfare in the isthmus
against almost insuperabie obstacles. While
defending the great French enterprise, al
acted in the capacity of French citizen
defending a great moral interest of France.
This excludes all idea of material remun-
Grafton, therefore I request the govern
ment of the republic of Panama to with
hold the salary of my Office. 1t should
form the nucleus of fund for the erection
of monument by the grateful republic of
Panama to Ferdinand de Lesseps, the great
Frenchman whose genius has consecrated
its territory to the progress of the world
for the honor of Panama. the glory of
France and of the United States.

THEY ACTUALLY
DO THE WORK.

FOOD EATEN is WORTHLESS UNLESS d.
GEsrED-soME SToMACHS MUST HAVE HELP.
Food taken into the Stomach which, from he
nature of the food the condition of the stom-
ach is not dgested, is worse than no food at all.
This is true statement as far 1t goes, and
great many dyspeptics go only this far with their
reasoning They argue with themselves that be-
cause their stomachs DO not do the work given
them they must be given less work; In other words,
they must be starved 1t would be just as sensi-
BILE for business man who is unable 10 do all his
own work to cut down his business TO his own
capacity as 1t is for to starve himself to re-
lieye his stomach. The sensible business man en-
1loys help and goes forward with his business.
Likewise the sensible dyspeptic will employ help
for his stomach and give his body proper nourish-
ment.
Stuart,s Dyspepsia Tablets actually do the work
assigned to them. They relieve weak and
burdened stomachs of great portion of digestive
action Their component parts are identical with
those Of the digestive fluids and seeretions of the
stomach and they simply take up the grind and
carry on the work just the same a good strong,
healthy stomach would do IT.
On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
perfectly natural in their action and effects They
do not cause any unnatural violent disturbance
In the stomach or bowels They themselves digest
the food and supply the system with all the nour-
ishment contained In what is eaten and carry cut

How much more sensible is this method than that

ICE BREAKING RESUMED.
Tugs Employed in Clearing Channel
Above and Below Bridoe

For the third time this winter Harbor-
master Sutton has a fleet of tugboats at
work breaking up the ice on the Potomac.
both above and below the Long bridge. in
order to prevent any danger of flood in
the city should a heavy freshet come from
the upper waters of the Potomac There is
some danger of a flood, but the danger is
remote. The tugs have been lying at the
wharves adjoining the harbormaster's Of
fice wharf for several days ready for work,
but 1t was not until this morning that oper-
ations We're begun.
The plan of campaign used when the ice
was broken up on the previous occasions
will be followed this time. The tugs will
thoroughly open the channel to point be-
low Alexandria, in order to allow the winds
to carry the ice ashore, and then the tugs
will cruise about above and below the
bridge, breaking the large cakes of ice in
small ones and keeping them moving un-
der the bridge.
The warm weather of the past two days
has softened the ice, though above the
bridge and about Georgetown harbor it is
still thick and quite hard. The tugs Edith
G. Winship, William II. Mohler and
Minerva comprise the ice-breaking fleet to-
day, but the other boats, it is understood,
will take a hand in the work tomorrow.
Two or three days of work. it is estimated,
will be required to break the ice above
Georgetown and to start it running freely.
1t is believed that the present thaw on
the river marks the end of a freeze that has
extended over three months and has been
the longest for more than thirty years. The
Norfolk and Washington line steamer,
which arrived here shortly after O'Clock
this morning, reports the river full of ice,
but that it is much softer than it has been
in several weeks Through the entire freeze,
when other steamers running on the
Chesapeake bay were forced to lay up the
boats of the line between this city and Nor
folk have made regular trips and have
maintained their schedule
The river line steamers are preparing to
resume trips and the Weems line will have
a steamer from this city, it is stated, Sun
day afternoon, and the Randall line either
Saturday morning or Monday afternoon.
1t is believed that by the middle of next
week the river will be free of ice and sail
ing vessels can move without hindrance.

CHEAPER THAN BY WATER.
Rates From Western Europe by Rail
for the Far East.

In a report to the Department of State
United States Commercial Agent Greener
at Vladiyostok, Siberia, says that owing to
the low third class rates the travelling from
western Europe to the far east has become
exceedingly cheap and one can go from
Hamburg to Shanghai by the Siberian and
Manchurian railroads for $ol.5O, inclusive Of
food, whereas the cost of sea voyage is
about $154.50
In the same report Mr.. Greener says that
an American firm in vladivostok has sub
stituted Russian laborers for Cinnamon in
the coal mines. The Russians are working
comparatively. by the job. The firm states
that the coal dug by cheap Chinese labor
costs them cents ton. but that by en-
rloying Russian miners at higher wages a
ton of coal costs only two cents.
The consul states that the regulation pre-
venting foreigners from exploiting gold
mines within sixty miles of the coast or
even participating in the gold mining indus
try in the maritime province, instead of
being relaxed as was hoped by some foreign
Yniners who had already paid good price
for work done before the law. has again
