NOT AFRAID OF NEW Law.
Trading Stamp Company Still in the
Ring-Declares Law to Be
Unconstitutional

1t is quite evident that If die they
must the trading stamp promoters are to
die hard.
According to Mr.. III. r. Fee. who repre-
sents the leading trading stamp concern,
his company stands ready to protect it's
patrons now and at all times and pro-
poses to fight the law just signed by the
Governor, and establish It's right to is
sue and the merchants right to use the
stamps.
He says that in twenty-five States
similar laws have already been declared
unconstitutional and the California
measure cannot stand.
So far as his own company is con-
cerned Mr.. Fee states that 25 carloads
of premiums for the redemption Of trad
ing stamps are en- route to the coast, and
holders of stamps have no cause for
worry The circular of the Merchants
Association to retail dealers in the city
was published in full In yesterday morn
ing's Call. It invites their attention to
the new law and asks their adherence to
it's provisions.

EXTENDS CIVIL
SERVICE RULES
President Roosevelt Will Not
Remove POstmaSters Here
after Except for Cause
Special Dispatch to tn. Call

CALL BUREAU. POST BUILDING,
WASHINGTON, March H.-There Is
CONSERVATION in Congressional ranks
over the announcement of a policy in
the Postoffice Department which is to
the effect that during the present ad-
ministration there will be no removals
of postmasters of the Presidential class
from office except for cause.
In effect, this policy, which emanated
from the White House. will be to put
Presidential postmasters under civil
service. Inasmuch as they have been
in the past a source of political trading
by members of Congress, the policy is
not meeting with favor from that
source.
This move is in accord with the gen.
eral policy of the administration to ex-
tend the civil service rules over as
much of the Government service as
possible.

Joseph Chamberlain Is De-
serted by His Former
Associates i'll the Cabi-
net of Great Britain
BALFOUR ANNOUNCES
CHANGE OF ATTITUDE
Hereafter Resolutions Made
to Commit Government
Upon the Fiscal Ques-
tion Will Not Be Opposed

LONDON, March 21.-The Cabinet
meeting TO-DAY discussed the fiscal
situation in the House of Commons and
decided that in future the Government
will not use pressure upon it's follow
ers in regard to the opposition resolu-
tions framed to commit the Govern
ment on the fiscal question. AS re-
suit. the resolution announced for the
night of March %, expressing the op-
Dosition of the House to a tax on i'm
ported manufactured articles, probably
will be carried by comfortable ma
iolity. but the opposition will be unable
to reap more than an indirect political
benefit.
The decision of the Cabinet was
backed by Joseph Chamberlain's fol-
lowers tonight, when at a meeting of
seventy eight Unionist tariff reform
ers it was decided not to participate in
the debates or divisions on the resolu-
ton, the vote on which. however, will
be interesting because it will be a "go
as you please.
The Government having decided that
the fiscal question is not a critical
party issue, whips will not be sent out.
A majority for the resolution will not
be considered a defeat for the Govern
ment whose supporters express them
selves as having rejected, on March 8,
the resolution declaring that in the
opinion of the House, permanent unity
of the British empire could not be
obtained through system of prefer
entail duties based on protective taxa
tion of food.
This move on the part of Premier
Balfour is the political sensation of the
hour and is being hailed with great
Joy by free traders, who claim that 1t
is definite desertion of Chamberlain
by his former Cabinet associates.

Der of Deputies Indicate
Success of ROuyier's Plans

PARIS, March 21.-The Chamber OF
Deputies to-day began the debate on
the Governments bill providing for the
separation of church and State. A
large crowd was present and intense
interest was shown in the proceedings
The debate began with the motion OF
Georges Berry Conservative deferring
the subject until after the general cleo
tions of 1906, and the motion OF the
Able Gayraud Catholic Republican, to
refer the question to a parliamentary
question commission.
Berry's motion was defeated by 343
to 40 votes and by vote of 3S6 to 162
the chamber decided not to accept Able
Gayraud's motion.
Able Gayraud contended that the
suppression of the budget Of public
worship amounted to robbery. 1t was.
he said. breach of the 1889 engage
ment. The courts could compel Cath
olics to submit to the law. but they
would never recognize it's justice. IL
the gauntlet were thrown down to the
church 1t would be picked up.

Every drop of blood, every bone,

renewed in but one way, and that is,
from wholesome food properly digest
ed. There is no other way and the idea
that a medicine in itself can purify the
blood or supply new tissues and strong
nerves is ridiculous and on a par with
the fol-de-rol that dyspepsia or indi-
gestion is germ disease, or that other
fallacy, that a weak stomach which re-
fuses to digest food can be made to do
so by irritating and infaming the bow
els by pills and cathartics.
StUart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure in
digestion, sour stomach, gas and bloat-

the digestive principles which weak
stomachs lack, and, unless the def

JOKER IN AN ORDINANCE
AIMED AT A RAILROAD
Chicago Company's Position Substan-
TALLY Improved Instead of
Being Damaged.

CHICAGO. March 2L-Careful analy-
sis to-day of the ordinance depriving
the City Railway Company of any
franchise rights to the streets of Chi
cago appears to show that the COM
pany's position, instead of being dam
aged, is substantially improved. The
ordinance contains a clause that the
executive officers of the municipality
are to take no steps to interfere with
the operation of the company's street
car system pending demonstration of
the respective rights Of the company
and city in the courts.
The case, it is said, will go to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
A final decision in the litigation is not
expected within two years. Mean
while, the company has a virtual fran
chise through the very measure that
ostensibly is a forfeiture.

OVERDUE SHIP ATROS SPOKEN.
ENGINES Out OF Order When She Was AIS
Miles East Of Florida.

The British steamship Athos, to search
for which Uncle Sam sent out revenue
cutter and a collier, was spoken about AIS
miles east Of the Florida coast eight days
ago by the Spanish steamship Montevideo,
Recently at Havana. r. Colombo, the
aupercargo Of the Athos, sent letter to
the Baltimore Fruit Company, to which the
vessels cargo was consigned, saying that
the cargo, all bananas. was total loss
The letter said also that the high pressure
engine and the low pressure crank shaft
had been broken, but that the engineer
hoped to make repairs by Thursday, Aug
II and proceed, The superoargo indicated
that he would get provisions from the
Montevideo, which took his letter and had
it posted at Havana, and he said that all
on board we're we'll. There was nothing
in tho letter to show whether Capt. Dobeon
OF the Athos intended to come all the way
to this port with patched up machinery or
to put into some nearer place south OF Hat
teras.
The Athoe sailed from Port Antonio,
Jamaica, on Aug. 8, and was long overdue
here. John A. Donald, president Of the
Donald Steamship Company and owner
Of the Athos, has repeatedly declared that
she would be reported drifting and making
repairs. His young son, Douglas, two OF
the boys schoolmates and their teacher
are taking a vacation cruise, which will
last twice az long az they expected. on the
Athos
