Hearinu

The Municipal league has entered tht
library squabble and yesterday sent a
communication to Mayor McAleer ask
ing that Miss Mary L. Jones, the de-

The mayor has been a busy man
since the directors removed Miss Jones'
Club women, fraternal societies and
now a political organization have
asked that an investigation be held.
In answer to the usual question pu!
to him yesterday the mayor made the
reply which he persuaded some one to
write for him and then committed TO
memory, so that he could say 1t asleep
That is, he said he was still investi-
eating, and would not act until he
found some reason for so doing. Then
he said he might refer the whole ques-
tion to the city attorney and abide Ky
his decision, as to who should conduct
the investigation.
City Attorney Mathews heard of the
mayors statement of referring the
question to him and a second later
what appeared to be a meteor flew out
of the door of the city hall and the
worthy city attorney could not DE

COTTON SCANDAL
PR0BED TO THE BOTTOM
PRESIDENT WHITES LETTER TO
Mr.. MOODY
He Declares That Holmes Is q Greater
scoundre Than II He Had Stolen
Money From the United states
Government
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
OYSTER BAY, July 15.-Presdent
Roosevelt has determined that the
scandal growing out OF the cotton re-
port leaks In the department of agrl-
culture shall be probed to the bottom
He holds that the man or men respon-
sible for the leaks are in greater degree
culpable than they would have been
had they stolen money outright from
the government. He proposes that
Assistant statIstlcian Holmes, against
whom SERIOUS allegations are made,
shall be punished If 1t shall be found
possible to secure his arrest and con-
viction under present laws. The presl-
dent has followed the work of the in
vestigation conducted by Secretary
Wilson with keen interest. The general
results have been presented to him, to-
gether with such recommendations as
Secretary Wilson had to make The
president took prompt and decisive
action. He referred the matter to the
department of Justice, with instruc-
tions that 1t should be given immediate
and careful attention. In accordance
with that order Solicitor General Hoyt
is now making a thorough inquiry into
the case. To reinforce his formal order
President Roosevelt wrote the follow
ing pointed letter to Attorney General
Moody:
my Dear Mr. Moody most
earnestly hope that every effort will
be made to bring Holmes to justice in
connection with the cotton report scan
dal. Please go over the papers your
self. The man Is, in my judgment a
far greater scoundrel than If he had
stolen money from the government, as
he had the government to deceive
outside and make money for himself
and others. Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOsEvELT'
In response to the presidents letter
Attorney General Moody replied:
Dear Mr.. President: / have re-
with care the anxiety you express, the
wish that Holmes, the offending official
in the cotton case, be brought to JUS
tice If possoble. I have kept, through
correspondence with the solicitor gen.
eral, in close touch with this investiga-
tion. 1t shall receive my most earnest
personal consideration. l will not now
express an opinion, as L think it better
to await the result of some investiga-
tions now in progress in the depart
ment of justice. At the first seasonable
moment 1 will communicate progress
we have made and the prospect Of

main in that condition and after his
discharge from the receiving hospital
he fell into the hands of local spe-
cialist, whose treatment is said to be
responsible for his present condition.

FRENCH ORATOR DECLARES
FOR A RUSSIAN REPUBLIC
Paul de Longpre Given Unusual DEM
onstration of Approval Of

Paul de Longpre was the orator of
the day at the celebration of the Fall
of the Bastile at Chutes park Fri
day and his address was the occasion
for an unusual demonstration of en-
thusiasm and approval by the large
audience which filled the Chutes
theater. In part, he said
my Dear Friends and Countrymen-
Since 1 was a boy, 1 have always
thought, 1 have always said, that the
French revolution has been one of the
greatest blessings for France and the
whole civilized world, and will repeat
today, my dear friends, let us bless that
so glorious day that our France has
adopted as national holiday
Let us bless that so glorious day
which, after centuries of oppression and
servitude, brought radiant halo to the
brow of every French citizen, the halo
of liberty.
And since we are all here to cele-
brate our great French revolution, lie.
our thoughts go for awhile to one of
the greatest nations of the world.
whose sons are just now fighting and
giving up their lives for sacred liberty,
the most precious treasure God gave to
man.
LET all of us hope that our friends,
the Russian people, opening their eyes
after so many centuries of ignorance,
of superstition and of slavery, are going
at last to unite and, same as our an
cestors did, will move as one man to
the conquest of freedom.
LET us hope that the inspiring and
terrible words of our immortal Marseil-
laise, to arms, citizens, rouse for the
strife will be heard all over Russia.
LET us hope that, same as tenn
pestuous sea, the great Russian people
will sweep and clean their country of
those two ulcers gnawing its vitals.
the nobility and the bureaucracy, who
think it right to consider the peasants
and the workingman simply as beasts
of burden-as dogs.
LET us all hope that before long, the
two greatest republics the world ever
knew-the American republic and the
French republic-will open their arms
to a third beloved sister, the Russian
republic"
| These words were spoken in the ma
speaking the audience arose as one man
and cheered for several seconds in ap-
proval of the sentiments expressed.

West Twenty-third street, who an in
stant before had slipped from the
greasy front step under a swiftly NOV
ing West Adams street car yesterday
morning rolled himself from the tracks
in time to save his life but did not
escape horrible injuries.
AS the car passed the corner Of YER
mont and Twenty-fourth streets Mr..
Howard boarded it. A second later the
car struck a curve and the victim was
hurled beneath it, having lost his foot
hold on the step. Though he had rare
presence of mind and pulled himself
from the tracks his right thigh bone
was fractured, right hip dislocated,
left hip fractured, left elbow fractured,
left knee dislocated and his body was
generally scratched and bruised.
That Howard escaped death seemed
almost miracle to all who witnessed
the occurrence. Even after he had rolled
off the tracks he was pinned beneath
the step of the car and dragged until
not whole limb was left uninjured in
his body. Bystanders, thinking that
the man was dead, removed him to his
home, where, under the care of a
physician, he regained consciousness.

Pelvic catarrh Explained

The pelvis is that portion of the
human anatomy that lies Immediately
below the abdomen.
The pelvis contains a number of very
important organs.
These organs are lined by mucous
membrane The mucous membrane is
liable to become affected by catarrh.
When they are so affected, they pro-
duce disturbances which have been
called by various names, disseminating
the notion that what is in reality ca
tarrh of the pelvic organs is many diff
ferent diseases.

Pe-ru-na Cures Ono Dssease-catarrh

Pe-ru-na Cures One D5sease-Catarrh
This form of catarrh is rarely recog-
nized, but almost always is called some
thing else.
This misleads the doctor and the
patient and a great deal of treatment
is resorted to that is of little or no use.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated. The catarrh may be located in
the pelvic organs or any other of the
organs of the human body.
Peruna is an internal systemic REM
edy, reaching the catarrh anywhere.
This has given rise to a notion that
Peruna cures many diseases.
Pe-ru-na Not cure-AII
I Peruna is not a cJrre-all. 1t cures
only one disease, and that is catarrh.
Close scrutiny always reveals the fact
that whenever Perun5 makes a cure,
catarrh was the cause of the difficulty.
