Every housekeeper should know
that II they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because It
never sticks to the iron. but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in u pound pack
ages. and the price is the same. 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 12-oz. package it is because he has
stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
ters and figures "16 ozs." Demand De-
fiance and save much time and money
and the annoyance of the iron stick
ing. Defiance never sticks.

With plans for new building valued
at more than $2,000000 filed April
26th. all records of the kind for New
York City were broken except in a
few instances, when plans for a great
hotel or office building were recorded.
OF the sum mentioned the most ex-
pensive building reaches the figure Of
only 100000. and the plans include
twenty-five six-story brick apartment
houses and tenements.

Estimate of the Wealth of American
MultI-MiIionaires.

Henry Clews has made an estimate
OF the wealth of a number of million

in which he places John d. Rockefeller
first and Andrew Carnegie second.
This is the table he has formulated:
John D. Rockefeller, s5oo,0o0, 900;
Andrew Carnegie, $115,00o,OOo given
away. leaving $3.50. 100000; William
Waldorf Astor, chiefly in real estate,

Gould's personal fortune represents
$35,000,000. $150,000,00O Marshall

Mr.. Clews admits that his list is by
no means complete. but says that it
undoubtedly contains the names of the
very richest men in the country.
Prominent among the well known
capitalists who are not included are
the members of the so-callcd Rock

Were Good for Both.

Paulding, Miss. May 15th.-(Spe-
ciaD-In this neighborhood men and
women alike are telling of the great
benefit they have received from the
use of Dodd's Kidney Pills and it fire.
quently happens they are the means
of curing members of both sexes in
the same family. Take the case of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. Erby. The latter
voices the sentiment of both when
she says:
MY lips cannot express too much
praise for Dodds Kidney Pills. I suf-
fered with Backache and Female
weakness for four or five years and
feel that l have been wonderfully
helped by Dodds Kidney Pills. My
husband, too, was a sufferer for FIVE
years from a weak bladder and they
also cured him"
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy
kidneys. Healthy kidneys mean pure
blood and good health all over the
body. No woman with healthy kid
neys ever had female weakness.

BAD WAR NEWS
TRULY TRAGIC PICTURE
Wornout Russian Soldiers Toll Hope-

(Continued from Page One.)
and to be commanded in part by Amer
leans.

BY Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, March IA, 1:55
a. m.-Russias grand army" with
the exception of it's thousands of dead
wounded and prisoners, is gathering
pass, and is feverishly engaged in
strengthening the already ample works.
The condition of the utterly worn
out, footsore and dsheartened soldiers
is pitiable, yet these men, scarcely able
to drag themselves along, are set to
work extending Notifications from
which they may be expelled within the
next forty EIGHT hours, as it is feared
that japanese columns are moving to
the rear and will attack from all sides.
There are indications that the food
supply at Tie pass is limited, as cor
respondents have telegraphed they have
had no food for two days.
Estimates of losses are indefinite.
General Kuropatkin reports that 10000
are wounded, but makes no mention of
those who have been killed or taken
prisoners. A tragic picture is drawn
of $50 men of an Imperial guards bat
TALON carrying its flag and the dead
body of it's colonel as illustrating the
terrible losses suffered by the regi-
ments of the rear guard.
Staff officers here are deeply I'M
pressed by the fact that the wide turn
ing movement to the eastward has ap-
parently not developed, and they fear
this may mean that 1t has been ex-
tended to the rear of Tie pass and will
encompass Kuropatkins shattered and
disorganized forces, giving him no time
for readjustment. They also point out
that the captures of ammunition and
supplies reported by the Japanese may
leave his army in a weakened con-
dition for offense.

THROAT SLASHED
IN SALOON FIGHT

In a cutting affray which occurred in
the California saloon on Main street
shortly after midnight Tuesday, Theo-
dore Petay. lives on Pico street, just
outside the city limits, was slashed
across the throat twice by knife
welded by j, w. Criner, mulatto.
Pettay's injuries consisted of big
cash across the throat, the knife miss
ing the iugular vein by but a fraction
of an inch.
According to the story told by Pet
tay and other eye-witnesses, the cut
ting came about because Pettay, who
was slightly intoxicated, asked the
mulatto to have drink The only re-
ply to this courtesy, it is alleged was
a slash with knifef in the throat,
quickly followed by another cut aimed
at the same place.
Officer Lennon arrested Criner and
took him to the station. where he is
held pending charge by Pettay. The
latters wounds were dressed by Sur
geon Bonynge at the receiving hospi-
tai. Pettay Is expected to recover.

SECRETARY HAY
OUT WITH LOOMS
SERIOUS DISAGREEMENT OVER
SANT0 DOMINGO
Senatorial Treaty Criticism Aserlbed
Largely to the Desire to Uphold
the Secretary as Against
the President
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, March 13--Trouble
in the state department between Secre-
tary Hay and Assistant Secretary
Loomis Is known to have been brewing
for some time past and is expected
shortly to eliminate in the resignation
of one or the other. The trouble is
over the Santo Domingo treaty, as to
which the secretary finds himself out
of accord with the president.
1t is now known that Mr.. Hay had
positively nothing whatever to do with
the astounding compact of January 20,
and that the treaty itself was framed
by Mr.. Loomls. Mr.. Hay was III Mt
the time, and 1t Is a matter of common
remark that Mr.. Hay has been re-
peatedly all" of late when serious mat
ters of importance we're pending in the
department.
The unexpected publicity given to
the Dillingham; Sanchez protocol pre-
pared by Mr.. Loomis, brought out a
peremptory demand for explanations
from the senate. The protocol was
then hastily retired and the treaty pre-
pared-also by Mr.. Loomis-upon
which the senate has been exercising
it's constitutional right of inquiry.
That Secretary Hay has a large fol-
lowing in the senate is notorious, and
much of the opposition to the treaty
that has been shown there is attributed
not merely to the objections of senators
to the treaty itself, but also to their
desire to uphold the secretary's hands.
Much will depend upon the action
that the senate may take upon the
pending treaty, and much upon the
pressure that the president and his
friends may bring to bear, since the
congressional leaders are generally
agreed that the retirement of Hay
would be an irreparable loss. 1t is
held, however, by those whose position
should enable them to speak with au-
thority that the climax will come
within the next three weeks, and that
either the secretary or his assistant
will then resign.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-03-14

czar the general terms that would be
acceptable. They are believed to in
clude the retention by the Japanese
of Port Arthur, a Japanese protectorate
over Corea and an indemnity.
While in diplomatic circles the i'm
preston prevails that the two nations
are on the verge of peace, it must on
the other hand, be said that Count Cas-
sini, the Russian ambassador, declares
as emphatcally as ever that only after
she has achieved victory will Russia
make peace.
The Japanese minister, while stoutly
insisting that Japan has never pro-
posed peace, does not deny that neu-
trail powers have, from time to time,
sounded her upon the subject, and that
Russia could have got more favorable
terms Immediately after the fall of
Port Arthur than are now open to her.

oRIENTALs FRATERNlzING
Japanese Officers Report Wholesale
Surrenders of Starving Russians

Special Cable to The Herald.
NEW CHWANG, March 13.-The fall
of Mukden is being celebrated here
with a gorgeous exhibition of fireworks
and elaborate displays of lanterns, the
streets being thronged with merry
makers and Japanese and Chinese pa
radng fraternally, hand in hand.
1t is stated that 10000 Russian pris-
oners will be sent to Japan by way of
Dalny, and that 4 large number Will
be shipped from Yinkow as soon as
the Lao river. opens.
Japanese officers returning from the
front report the condition of the Rus
sian soldiers as pitiable IN the extreme;
that they come into the enemy's camps
in never-ending stream, prostrating
themselves and appealing piteously for
mercy-starving, half frozen.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-03-14

Of wounded who have been sent north,
and again it may not include the losses
suffered by the third army, with which
the commander-in-ch was not in
communication for some time.
The figures given by the Japanese
of the war appear more reasonab BILE,
namely, 10000 prisoners, 26,50O dead left
on the field and 10000 killed and wound
ed, the latter figure of course including
the dead found by the Japanese. The
Russian losses therefore total over
100 900 men. or more than one third of
the whole army.
The fact that the japanese report the
capture of only sixty guns indicates
that Kuropatkin at the last moment
succeeded in sending considerable
portion of his artillery northward on
the railway.
The Jap losses up to this morning
were reported as 41,222, not including
the army which pushed north between
Mukden and Fushun.
Official Russia is determined to carry
on the war and st. Petersburg reports
that orders have been issued for the
mobilization of more troops. This may
prove a difficult task with the temper
of the Russian people in its present
condition. There is still hope in st.
Petersburg that Russia can exhaust
Japan financially, and for months
there has been talk of the mobilization
of an army on the Siberian border
which would compel Japan to keep her
vast army in Manchuria.
