BOARD is NAMED TO
INVESTIGATE BENNINGTON

San Diego Cal, July 29.-The flag
ship Chicago of the Pacific squadron
with Admiral Goodrich on board ar
rived here. Soon after the Chicago
came to anchor Commander Young of
the Bennington and Captain Drake
of Mare Island went aboard and were
closeted with the admiral.
A board of investigation was ap-
pointed whose duties it will be to col
lect evidence of whatever nature may
be considered pertinent to the disast-
err on the gunboat Bennington and to
get this evidence in shape for the con-
sderation of Admiral Goodrich. With
the report of this board in hand, the
admiral will decide whether or not
to- appoint a board of inquiry. At 10
o'clock this morning this board of in
vestigation, consisting of Lieutenant
Commander F. w. Bartlett, Lieuten-
ant Commander HalSead and Lieu
tenant Moody, convened on board the
flagship and after consultation with
the admiral adjourned to the Ben

as belonging to the general fund.
This knocks $4,000 hole in that
fund
Assistant State Treasurer John
Kelly stated today that there was
about $4,000 now in the general
fund. The monthly pay roll of the
state aggregates about $175.000. Mon
day is pay day. The $4,000 will pay
off all the claims that come in the
first few days, but when the bills from
the state institutions begin TO roll in
they will have to be stamped. Under
a new law state warrants draw only
4 per cent interest. They used to
draw per cent. The banks, ordi-
narily, would carry the per cent war
rants, but they can put their money
to better use now, and it is likely
that the holders of the warrants will
have to discount them or carry them
themselves.
The state officials hold that the
state is preferred creditor and that
it Is entitled to the first money that
the bank pays creditors until its $547,
900 is paid. The receiver will not
treat the state deposit as preferred
claim, and litigation on that point is
sure to follow

Topeka, July 31-The state treas

this week. as result of the failure of
the First National Bank. The state
has $547,00O tied up in that bank. OF
this sum about $4,000 is money
from the general revenue fund,
$4,000 from the permanent school
fund and $1,000 from the annual
school fund. The rest is scattered
among the various other funds. The
constitution provides that the per-
manent school fund shall never be
diminished. Bank failures were not
taken into consideration when that
provision was enacted. If any part
of the school fund were lost the legis-
lature would have to appropriate
enough at its next session to make
good the amount. State Treasurer
Kelly has decided, in order to keep
the school fund intact, to treat all of

Num.ar Fcriy.Seven While There Are
227 Cases.
SPREADS IN POOR HABITATIoN.
Almost Without Exception Those
Who Are Victims of the Plague
Are Among the Poorer Glasses,
Many Of Them Being Italians.

New Orleans, July 31.-The follow
ing report as to the progress of yell
low fever in New Orleans is up to
p. m. Saturday:
New cases. 81; total cases to date,
227; deaths today, 81; deaths to date,
Al; new foci 5.
Of the deaths one occurred at the
Emergency hospital and was one of
the cases transferred there Saturday.
The institution now has 10 cases un-
der treatment and today discharged
its first patient as cured.
Although the unofficial reports made
public showed larger, number of
deaths than yesterday when there
were only two, and the appearance of
number of new cases, the men of
science who are warning against the
yellow fever plague ended the days
labors confident that the situation was
date prospect of becoming alarming.
Today's official report of yesterdays
progress of the disease shows that the
entire section above Canal street was
free from a single new case and that
the fever was spreading only in the
poorer habitations of the downtown
section, with new cases isolated in
the heart of the French market. The
health authorities continued to hold
also that the plague remains an
Italian infection, all except two of the
twenty-six cases reported being of
that nationality Almost without ex-
ception since the beginning of the
fever those who have fallen victims
to the disease have been of the poor
err classes of the population, many of
them not long residents of the United
States, and, therefore, unacclimated.
Deaths have been principally of
Italians. The first death in the Emer-
gency hospital occurred today. The
hospital was opened yesterday with
thirteen cases and an equal number
was added today. Into the hospital
are being sent the worst cases of indi-
gent unfortunates. 1t is reported that
the mortality in this direction will be
unusually high

SENATOR GORMAN TALKS
ON THE FREIGHT RATES

Washington, July 80 = The an
nouncement of the decision of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to call an extra ses-
sion of congress in November for the
consideration of railway rate legisla-
ton, among other propositions, makes
the remarks of Representative Charles
E. Townsend, of Michigan, of timely
importance as Mr.. Townsend was one
of the authors of the famous Escch-
Townsend bill Addressing the men,
bers of the National Hay Association,
who were the prime movers for rail-
way rate legislation, Mr.. Townsend
said:
"The welfare of the railroads and
the welfare of the people of this coun-
try depends on an early and a fair
and Just settlement of the rate prob
lem. There may be a compromise.
but there cannot be compromise OF
principle. The law calls for fair

nington The report of the board is
not expected to be made for several
days. In the meantime the work of
cleaning up the gunboat proceeds
slowly, the boilers left in the position
in which they were found after the
explosion until inspected by the in
vestigating board Divers have plug
ged the intake pipes from the outside,
thus stopping the inflow of water.
Thus far it is reported that the divers
have found nothing wrong with the
hull from the outside. Scalings from
the boilers will be examined by the
navy yard chemist, it is understood, to
determine if gases created by cor
rosion and chemical action caused the
explosion.
There have been no deaths since
those reported last night though the
condition of P. Nieman, H. A. VFor-
then and L. A. Griese are precarious.

pie will make an agreement. The

The above remarks attributed to the
congressman are reproduced because
the conclusion of his speech is some
what uninteligible People will say
that | am an anarchist" he is quoted
as saying, 'or, at least, that these are
anarchistic utterances." Just what
people are likely to accuse Mr.
Townsend of being an anarchist does
not appear, and certainly there is
nothing in the words attributed to him
which could be construed as "anar-
chistic utterances." But | know diff

puRNovo ON THE COUNCIL.

st. Petersburg, July 81. = The
newspapers today announce the APP
pointment of Governor Durnovo. a
member of the council of the empire
as governor general of Moscow in
place of General Kozeloff who is con-
sidered to have been too vacillating
in his policy towards the Zemstvo con-
gress. Durnnovo, who is extremely
wealthy. was governor of Moscow in
1872 and 1878. He had had long ex-
perience in administrative posts. His
son was commander of the Russian

STAY OF EXECUTION.
Johann Hoch Was Granted a Reprlove
BY Governor

Chicago, July 81. = Johann Hoch,
blue Beard" and confessed biga-
mist, sentenced to be hanged for pois-
oning one of his wives, was this af-
ternoon granted rcpIieve until Aug
ust 25 by Governor Deneen. The
stay of execution followed hours of
anxiety on the part of Hoch, who had
never given up hope, and was allow
ed by the governor only after the
latter had been assured that the ne
cessary sum to appeal the case had
been raised. The amount, $500, was
given by an attorney and friend of
Hoch's counsel. The attorney de-
clared he was actuated by purely hu-
manitarian motives.
An incident at the jail during the
preparations for the execution was
the appearance of a physician and a
woman who told Jailer Whitman that
they wanted to help in Hoch's battle
for life. They said they wished to
raise funds for the condemned man
and asked Jailer Whitman to delay
the hanging as long as possible
Hoch's attorney, however, had al
ready been in communication with
the authorities respecting the stay of
execution. All arrangements had been
made for the execution and in view
of the action of Governor Deneen yes
terday in refusing stay of execution,
and similar action by the state board
of pardons, Hoch's chance for life was
considered slight.
About the time set for the execu-
ton the attorney came into the case
for the first time. This attorney tele-
phoned Hoch's lawyer that the form
err had $500 to give toward aiding to
appeal the case. The two fastened
to the Jail, told Jailer Whitman of the
money secured and arranged with the
jailer to postpone as long as possible
the execution of Hoch. They sought
States Attorney Healy and had him
arrange a conference with Governor
Deneen over the long distance tele'
phone.

THE COURT IS DEFIED
AND ANSWERS REFUSED

Washington, July 29.-E. A. Peck
ham, a New York broker, refused to
answer questions as to his dealings
in agricultural products before the
grand jury investigating the cotton
leak.
Mr. Peckham was thereupon told by
U. S. District Attorney Beach that I'M
less he (Peckham) changed his mind
by tomorrow at IL o'clock, when the
grand jury convenes for the day, his
recalcitrancy would be reported to
Judge Wright of the supreme court of
the District of Columbia, who al
ready has given public notice of his
intention to punish any witness refus-
ing to answer proper questions. The
penalty is imprisonment. When ques-
toned tonight Mr.. Beach, who has
steadfastly refused to discuss devel-
opments in his inquiry, declined to
admit the probability of proceedings
against Mr.. Peckham.
Secretary Wilson, in his report on
the examination into the affairs of his
department by the secret service men,
referred to Mr. Peckham at some
length, saying:
"Mr. Peckham was interviewed at
the Hotel Breslin in New York city,
He was shown the above series of let
tiers and asked for an explanation of
their contents. Mr.. Peckham stated
that the only explanation he had to
give was that at the time the letters
were written he was trying to make
some money in the cotton market.

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success Of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fact that II
Really Does Make Sick Women Well

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. PinlSham' Vegeta-
BILE Compound. Their letters are on file
in Mrs. Pinkham's oHice, and prove this
statement to be fact and not a mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine. and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia e. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound accomplished its wide

Why has it lived and thrived and

Simply and surely because CT its ster-

lcine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
Is no other medicine in the world SO
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is astimulant-not because it is
a palliative, but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the uterine system, positively

Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who have recognized the virtue in
Lydia L. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink

Further than this Mr.. Peckham re-
fused to give any information about
his relations with Mr.. Holmes, Mr.
Hays or Mr.. Vanriper that could
throw any light on the matter under
consideration.
Shortly after Mr.. Peckham was in
terviewed he left New York for
Washington and Immediately on his
arrival in the city he held a CONVEX
sation with Holmes over the tele-
phone, in which he inquired whether
Mr.. Holmes intended to resign his po-
sition or whether he expected to be
dismissed from the government SER
vice"
Mr.. Peckham was interviewed
again at the Hotel Brest in New York,
after his trip, but declined to give any
further information concerning his re-
lations with Mr.. Holmes. When Mr..
Holmes was questioned about his re-
lations with Mr.. Peckham and Mr..
Van Ripper he said that they had all
been on very intimate terms socially,
and that when he had occasion to visit
New York he frequently found that
his hotel bills had been paid by Mr..
Van Ripper or by Mr.. Peckham. Mr..
Holmes admits that he and Mr.. Peck
ham and Mr.. Hays were, at one time
connected in a business venture in
which Mr.. Holmes was to have an in
terest equal to $4,000, which he was
to receive as a gift from the other
members of the firm"

STRANGE, ISN'T 1T?

A woman sees a hat or bonnet in n
milliner's window. 1t Is in the latest
STYLE so she determines to have that
hat-or one just like it.
No use to try to dissuade her-she
wants that kind of a hat No other
viii suit her.
There she displays her will power,
and probably does the same with
everything she buys for herself or her
family. She makes, as 1t were, fem
mine declaration of independence"
Is 1t not surprising, therefore, to find
some few women who still allow their
Grocers to choose for them in import
ant matters like foodstuffs?
In spite of the fact that grocers as a
rule have long ago realized the neces-
sity of catering to their customers
are still a few of the other kind left,
who show a marked inclination to per-
suade customers to take what they do
not ask for, or desire.
Take Lion Coffee, for instance, the
leader of all package coffees, an estab-
lished favorite for over twenty-five
years in millions Of homes, on account
of its absolutely pure and uniform
quality.
that single grocer can still exist who
would oppose such an invincible argu-
ment of merit, by trying to persuade
a customer to buy loose coffee in pref
erence to Lion Coffee?
Loose coffee has no standard quality
nobody can guarante that it is
even clean.
OF course. really independent and
intelligent women know this. and so
do up-tO-date grocers but If women
were as particular about coffee as
about hats. no kind of grocer could be
without Lion Coffee
