BEWARE OF OINTMNIJ FOR CATARRH
THAT CONTAIN MERCURY

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of
smell and completely derange the whole sys-
tenn when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be used
except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, as the damage they will do is ten
fold to the good you can possibly. derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney q Co., Toledo, o., contains no
mercury, and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucuos surfaces
of the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure
be sure you get the genuine. 1t is taken in
teTnally and m ade in Toledo, Ohio. by F. j

Conference Companies in New York
Are Not Adherins to Manual.
New York, Jan. 81. - Liability rates
in this city are becoming more demor-
allied every day, and instances are be-
ing cited to show that the conference
companies are not adhering to the new
manual. It is stated on good author-
ity that very large building liabil-
ity line, covering risks thruout the
country, has just been captured by one
Of the conference companies. Bids
were submitted by two conference and
two outside companies, with very lit
tie attention paid to the manual and
the successful bid was nearly third
lower than those made by the non-cOn-
ference companies.
About the only line that is being held
at manual figures is teams insurance.
and this class is generally conceded to
be improbable, even at the full tariff.

DECISION GIVES THE POWER
Now That the Supreme Court Has Up
held the Administration It I. Pro-
posed to See That the Laws On tho
Subject of Unlawful Combine. Are
obeyed.


Washington, Jan. Sit can be said
by authority that unless the corpora
tions constituting the alleged "beef
trust" heed the injunction made perm
anent yesterday by the decision Of the
supreme court, the government will in
stitute proceedings against individual
members of corporations to enforce the
decision of the court. The proceedings
will be under criminal law, If such can
be instituted. The minds of the presi-
dent and members Of the cabinet are
made up fully on the question. They
are determined that the beef trust
shall obey the law and now that the
highest court in the land has upheld
the hands of the administration, it IS
said that they will permit no further
"dilly- -dallying' with the subject.
