ORDERED TO SAN DOMINGO
Reported that Fighting Has Broke
 Out on the Island

Out on the Island.
 New Orleans, Jan. 26.-The Plea yune's Panama special says:
 Considerable excitement has been created on the isthmus by the receipt of orders by the converted cruiser Dixie to proceed at once to the island of San Domingo. where fighting has broken out in the streets and become so general that the assistance of the 500 marines quartered upon Empire Hill are considered absolutely neces- sary by the United States.
 This cabled order reached the Dixie late yesterday evening and at once 3 message was transferred to Empire. where Colonel Wood had also received similar orders. These orders were for Colonel Wood to proceed at once to Colono. with all his force. leaving only small detail to guard the quarter master stores on the hill.
 Early this morning the orders were given to break camp. The battalion of marines at Empire have only been in camp a few weeks. having been brought down to relieve the 500 men who had fifteen months looked after American interests during the exciting days when the republic of Panama was being created. About four weeks ago the Prairie carried back to America this force of men and brought the bat talion now in control of the zone un- der command of Colonel Wood.
 This command consists of five com panies. numbering in al a few over 500 officers and men. The officers of these commands nearly all of whom have families, have sent for their wives and In q number of instances these ladies have already arrived. The hurry up orders which came so unexpectedly have naturally created 8 decided stir in camp and no end of excitement on the isthmus itself.

SECRET WORKER. The Plan Upon Which Coffee Operates

 Coffee is such secret worker that it IS not suspected as the cause of sick ness or disease. but there Is a very sure way to find out the truth. 4 lady in Memphis gives an interest ing eXperience her husband had with conee. It seems that he had been us- valid.
 The physician in charge shrewdiy suspected that coffee was the Worm at the root of the tree" and ordered It discontinued with Instructions to use Fostum Food Coffee regularly in it's The wife says: We found that was the true remedy for his stomach and heart trouble and we would have glad ly paid hundred times the amount of the doctors charge when we found how wise his Judgment was.
 The use of Postum instead of coffee was begun about a year ago, and It has made ray husband a strong. well man. He has gained thirty-five pounds in that time and his stomach and heart trouble have all disappeared.
 The t1rst time l prepared 1t did not boil 1t long enough and he said there was something wrong with 1t. Sure enough 1t did taste very flat, but the carefully. boiling 1t for fifteen minutes. and he remarked this is better than any of the old eoffee.'

bring them into close connection with the gold standard countries and are of very great benefit to the trade of the United States and every effort should be made to encourage such reforms. The attention of Congress is invited to the accompanying report of the Sec retary of State, whose request for a suitable appropriation for carrying on this valuable work in the manner which seems to him most practical, heartily endorse and recommend to your favora- ble consideration.
 Theodore Roosevelt" The work of the commission" com ments Secretary Loomis, considering the difficulties of its task. has been on the whole very successful"
 He refers to the success of the Philip pine currency scheme, sand to the re- cent law passed by Mexico. which he says already has been beneficial in the exchange between Mexico and New York. The price of silver bullion has been much more stable during the past year, the secertary says as 8 result of the work of the commission. The com mission Is also given credit for the new monetary system of the republic of Panama. He says some time will be required for China to accumulate a sufficient gold reserve to get on gold basis, but 1t is active in the matter.

AGAINST TARIFF REDUCTION.
Louisiana Man Appears Before Ways
 and Means Committee.

and Means Committee.
 Washington, Jan. 2s.-James D. Hill, speaking for the Louisiana sugar plant CTS before the House Committed ton Ways and Means today in opposing the pi opposed reduction on tariff on sugar from the Philippines to 25 per cent of the Dingley rates, said in answer to questions that the large crops of last year after tSe Cuban reciprocity act went into effect were due to the favor able conditions which prevailed and that the increased price of sugar was due to the abolition of the cartel sys- tenn and the bounty fed sugar of Eu- rope. He urged that the reduction of tariff on Philippine sugar would in crease the products of the islands where sugar can be grown at much less cost than in the United States.
 Representative Boutelle (IlL) quot ing a newspaper that all the enemy of sugar need fear was the tariff tinkerer and the reciprocity crank. asked Mir. Hill If he subscribed to that view. Mir. Hill said if not offensive to the committee he would say yes. D. c. Colcock, secretary of the American Cane Growers Association was also heard.
 Representative Curtis (Kan-) asked
 MT. Co1cock if he thought there was
 an agreement between the cane and
 beet sugar men for a division of ter-
 ritory with the Missouri River as the
 dividing line. MT. Clocock said he could not say as to that and remarked that the refiners were all in bunch. c. N. Smith of Michigan, speaking for the beet sugar interests, said there was no agreement between the beet sugar manufacturers and the refiners or any division of territory.

Lsa.gvinery for the thorough. intelh-
 gent and painsfaking reports of the
 proceedings. as well as advertising
 the meeting of the convention in ad-
 vance. The railroads were thanked for
 their low rates and especial thanks
 were returned to President Purse for
 his indefatjgable efforts in building
 up the association. The resolution was adopted.
 In accordance with the suggestion
 made in the address of Professor Me-
 Candless of Georgia a resolution was adopted petitiouing the Senate to pass
 the Hepburn food bill and petitioning
 the Legislatures of the Southern States
 to adopt pure food laws.
 The time for the report of the Nomi- mating Committee having arrived; President Purse said that he desired to earnestly ask tho association not
 to re-elect him president. He felt that the time had come when the burden of the office shouI1 be transferred to other shoulders. The Nominating Committee, however. reported his name and the election was made unanimous. The other officers of the association were then elected.
 There was an informal discussion of the financial affairs of the association.
 but it was finally decided to leave the question of raising the needed money to the Finance Committee. The con ventfon then adjourned sine die.
