DISTRESS AFTER MEALS
Sure Sign That Or Williams Pink Pills
Are Needed to Tone Up the
Digestive Organs.

Loss of appetite, distress after eating,
| shortness of breath, a feeling of utter
weaknesj-these are symptoms that are
familiar to most sufferers from stomach
| trouble. Too often the ordinary doctors
| treatment serves but to weaken the dis
eased organs.
The new tonic method of treating dis
orders of this kind does not aim to do the
work of the stomach, does not demand
that the food be He-digested, but builds
upthe weakened organs, SO that they can
do the work that nature intended.
Mrs. 10. Law, of Nc. 1924 North street,
Horton, Kansas, says: 'In 1897, while
we were living on a farm in this neigh
borhood, I became generally debilitated

ROOSEVELT SNEW MOVE
VIII Test Right Of Corporation to Re-
fuse to Testify.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Upon the sug-
gestion of President Roosevelt the de-
cision of the right of a corporation to
refuse to testify on the constitutional
ground that it can not be forced to IN
criminate itself is to be shortly tested
by the government.
The department of justice is under
stood to have under preparation cases
that are aimed to thoroughly de-
termine the rights and immunities Of
corporations.
The decision will be of the utmost i'm
portance for it is held that a corpora
ton is not entitled to the immunity
granted an individual The legal path
way of the government in its gigantic
fight against trusts Will be cleared of an
obstacle that at all times has hindered
and often prevented a trial in court on
the cases presented. A well known
authority said today:
1.-The supreme court has already held
that a corporation Is a. person within the
meaning of the fourteenth amendment,
where it protects persons frem taking
their property without due process of
law What they may. decide as to this
larger question is uncertain. In a day
when the greatest business is done in
corporate guise, the argument is strong
~ pressed that safeguard Of individual
liberty ought not to be extended to the
artificial person, which, after all, is
merely the creature of. the state. 1t is
literally making a creature by the pow
er of the creator -

Washington, Dec. 23-If the senate

ecutive eager to offer Cancellation up
to certain point.
This was made manifest today by
the announcement from the White
House that J. B. Bishop of New York,
secretary Of the Panama cannal COM
mission, recently nominated to fiji q
vacancy on the commission viii not
be permitted to exercise the functions
so4 commissioner until his nomination
has been confirmed by the senate.
although a warm personal friend Of
the president, Mr. Bishop had assum-
ed that his defense by the president
and the secretary of war from the Sc

both branches of congress meant that
the executive purposed making an is-
sue OF hiIn, even if in so doing he Of
Tended the senate, which just before
the holiday recess was inclined to view
Bishops nomination somewhat in tEa
light of an affront.
Mr. Bishop announced yesterday that
he would at once perform the duties Of
his new office. Additional significance

the commission is understood to be
pretty evenly divided upon the Gues-
lions of a3lock and sea level canal. and

KlMBROUGH HAzING.
VIII Be Thrashed out Before a Court
Martial at Annapolis.

Annapolis, Nd, Dec. 23.-Midship-
man Tremore Coffin, jr., of Carson
City, New, will be placed on trial be-
fore a court martial next week for
hazing Midshipman J. r. Kimbrough
of Germantown, Tenn. It was an
nounced at the naval academy this
morning that the court will in all
probability be convened on Thursday.
There will be six members of the
court martial, including the judge
advocate. The ranking member will
be commander to be selected from
those officers on duty at the naval
academy. Unless with interruption to
their other duties, it was found inaprae-
ticabIe to select all of the mem bers of
the court from the officers on duty
from here and the navy department
has been asked to detail officers from
Washington.
The complete detail of the court,
therefore has not yet been announced
by Rear Admiral James H. Sands,
superintendent of the naval academy.
The charges and specifications
against Midshipman Coffin are now be-
ing prepared in the Office of the super
tendent. The single charge viii be,
of course, that of *shazing'' and the
specification will be that Midshipman
Coffin compelled Midshipman Kim
brOugh to stand on his head until he
was rendered unconscious. MidshiD-
Man Warren A. Vandervere of Mount
HoIley, n. J., a member of the. second
class, who is also under arrest for
his connection with the hazing, will
not be tried until the court disposes
of the case of Coffin. The charge
against Vandervere is that of neglect
of duty in not reporting the hazing of
kimbrOugh, when it was his. duty for
him to do so as he was in charge of
the floor of Bancroft hall where the
offense was committed. Whether any
additional casesof hazing have been
esta blished against any midshipman
by the board of investigation detailed
by Admiral Sands, the authorities Will
not disclose. as the report to be sub
mitted after the board adjourns will
cover this question. It is admitted,
however. that the testimony given by
the fourth classmen before the board
clearly shows that hazing has been in
full swing ever since the new class
entered the institution last June.
Asked whether the Investigators had
found any hazing of more brutal
nature than was that of young Kim
brough, an official stated today that
there had been cases in which the vic
tins have suffered greater hardships
at the hands of their tormentors, but it
is supposed that Kimbrough is of
weaker constitution than the others of
the new middies and that he could
not stand the torture for a long period.

New York, Dec 23.-Some interest
ing testimony was brought out this
afternoon in the hearing in special
sessions in Colonel Mann's suit against
the Golfers for criminal libel. Colonel
Mann was again on the stand and told
under James w. Osborne's question

persons for pages in 'F'ads and

During the examination the con-
tract was produced showing that Sen

the district attorneys Office in which
$4,000 was set opposite Depew's name.
Colonel Mann testified that Colonel
John Jacob Astor paid $4,000 for four

SIDES WITH BAILEY.
Chicago Tribune Says Senate Should
Throw Burton Out.

Chicago. Dec. 23.-The Chicago Tri-
bune leads its editorial page today with
a comment on whether the senate or
the court has the right to determine if
Senator Burton is entitled to retain his
senatorial seat and incidentally censures
Burton for not resigning- It suggests
that the senate remedy the trouble by
expelling the Kansan.
ct has been the general impression,
says the Tribune, that if the supreme
court to which the senator appealed,
shall refuse to reverse the trial court
it will automatically remove him from
the senate Senators Spooner and
Bailey both of whom stand high as ex-
Founders of the constitution, deny it
If d senator who has been sent to the
penitentiary does not resign there will
always be a tWO-thirds vote for his ex-
pulsion. The senator from Texas is
correct in his statement that when a
senator finds himsef compelled by a
sense of delicacy toward his associates
because he is under indictment to alb
sent himself he ought to resign and
give his people a chance to fill his place
while the case against him is tried. Sen
ator Bailey says, We have fallen to
the point that even in the comm on
p1ayhOuses of the country, where cheap
play writer's stage cheap plays, the
audience applauds when senators are
described as grafters.' Perhaps the
senate would not be Inundated thus If
it were to expel promptly senators who
do not resign when grave charges are
preferred against them

Politicians Wonder How He viii

Washington, Dec. 23.-Conjecture as
to the future status of President Roose-
welt in the party management of. New
York state has become profound convic-
ton among the Empire state leaders now
here. That he is to become the militant
head of his party in that commonwealth
is now held by them to be without ques-
ton. A man prominent in the party
councils of the state put it today:
1.-THE president is studiously avoiding
the nominal relation but he can not get
from the actualities of the case. There
was no man in all New York state
powerful enough to crush Oden, but
