WHO CANNOT BE CURED.

Backed up by over third of century
of remarkable and uniform cures a
record such as no other remedy for the
diseases and weaknesses peculiar TO
women ever attained, the proprietors of
DR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now
feel fully warranted in offering to pay
$500 in. legal money of the United
States, for any case of Leucorrhea, Fe-
male Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling
of Womb which they cannot cure. All
they ask is fair and reasonable trial of
their means of cure.

PRESIDENT CASTRO
FINALLY WEAKENS
OVER THE SITUATION BETWEEN
VENEZUELA AND UNITED
STATES.
Has Clothed Or. Paul With Diplomatic
Powers to offer to Settle by
Arbitration.

Washington, Feb 2.--President Cas-.
tro is weakening in the stubborn at
tit1de assumed regarding the settle
ment of American claims which has
brought on critical situation between
the United States and Venezuela, ac-
cording to informal and official ad-
vices received at the state department
today.
The advices are to the effect that
President Castro has. given diplomat
ic powers to DR.. Jose De J. Paul, now
at Northfeld. Vermont, arbitrator in
the French claims matter, to take up
and offer to settle by arbitration all
the American claims except that re-
lating to the asphalt property. All
questions pertaining to the asphalt
lake, Castro thinks, involve the ma
tional honor and must be determined
by the Venezuelan courts. DR.. Paul
has not yet approached the state de-
partment with this proposition.

between the grievance committee OF

ough Rapid Transit company and
Frank Hedley, general manager of the
company and once again the danger of

issued to the press. refused to 60

ference between the men and the com.
pany had been adjusted.

extensive scale abolishes, to O large
degree, the so-called sparcelar system
according to which peasant may be
assigned to work three strips of land
separated by distances of several miles
from each other. and re-apportions the
taxes to be raised by villages In such
a manner that the village authorities
will no longer be compelled to squeeze
the peasants. Under the present sys-
tenn each village must return GER
tain sum in taxes, fixed according to
the number of its inhabitants and not
according to the revenue yielded by
their possession.
These are only few of the reforms
planned by M. Witte and to the Brit
ish and American farmer they may
seem insignificant, but to the Russian
peasant they will mean life somewhat
worthy of human being.
The sudden determination of the
Russian government to try, IL every
thing else fails. to, win the confidence
of the peasants is believed to be
due to the fear that these may. If the
revolt of the past few weeks should
gather new strength, join the work
men. If this were to happen the gov
ernment could no more suppress the
uprising than 1t could stem the ocean
tide. BY peculiar oversight the
agitators neglected to take the peas
ants into their confidence and seek
their aid before attempting to TO
ment revolution. This fact alone, 1t
is argued here by resident Russians,
has enabled the authorities to gain the
upper hand. 1t Is therefore considered
expedient to become assured. even at
the cost of sacrificing traditions, of
the loyalty of the peasants before deal
ing with the workmen.

UNCERTAINTY
Hangs Over the Prom

Russia.
PROGRAM MLQQKSGQQD

London, FEB 3.-The latest advices
from st. Petersburg, indicating that
Governor General Trepoff is to be pro-
NOTED and sent to the. far east and
that, with the return to power of Ser
gius White his agrarian reform pro-
gram, the presentation of which cost
him the ezar's favor some years ago,
is to be reconsidered and possibly put
into effect, have been taken as abun-
dant proof that the Russian govern
ment is no longer certain of its
ground.
All those who are acquainted with
Whites program are still somewhat
incredulous that it will really be car
ried out. If such is the intention of
the car, however, il only proves. say
well Informed parties here, that Witte
has refused to take an active part in
the guidance of Russias internal af-
fairs unless he can do so on the basis
furnished by his pet scheme. There is
a suspicion in we'll informed quarters,
however, that the appointment to the
ministry of the interior. of NJ Bouli-
gan, hitherto insignificant factor In
Russia's politics is due to the hope of
the re-actionaries that they might
manage to get along without Witte. If
Bculigan should develop unsuspected
ability to deal with the situation and
succeed in placating the worl1men with
the minor reforms so far promised by
the car, as the outgrowth of his ukase
of December 25. then. it is argued,
Witte's great reform program will be
returned to the archives and the for
mer minister of finance may not OBJ

which, IL is Known, he will never CON

sias internal peace.
Whites agrarian reform plan, while
not contemplating a popular legisla-
tive body or the PRONUNCIATION of a
constitution, go much further in other
directions than the most radical
Zemstyos demands. 1t practically
abolishes the tithe system; gives the
peasants the right of petition as fact
and not as theory; frees them almost
entirely from taxes, provides for the

WAR ON GRAFT RESULTS

Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 2.-The grand
jury today returned 62 true bills
against the keepers of speak-easies
and disorderly houses in Allegheny
as a result of war against graft
which is being waged by the district
attorney. Most of the defendants in
the case are women. There are %
number of other bills to be passed up
on. Yesterday bill was returned
against Charles C, Stripeke, street
commissioner for eXtortion, alleging
that he took money from women Tor
protection in maintaining their homes.

BAKERS LAMENT WAS
s@ CAUSE OF HILARITY
Had His Hammer Out For Judge Parker-Seed
Distribution Criticized by Both Sides
Of the House.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Mr. Baker
(Dem., N. " had the house of repre-
sentatives in almost a continuous roar
of laughter for half an hour today by
denunciation of his party colleagues
for voting to retain in the postofiice
appropriation bill the mail appropria'
tion of $1i2.700 for the Southern rail-
way. He hit on subsidy first, then
launched into a TRADE against his
party for taking Judge Parker as a
national leader. The Republicans
roared. The Democrats sat still but
seemed to enjoy the fierce gesticula-
tions of the New Yorker who appear
ed to be laboring under unusual ex-
element When his time expired a
Republican would gleefully arise and
move that he be permitted to con-
clude. Thus it kept up until Mr.
Bell IN. " objected" because he did
not want the house proceedings turn
ed into fiasco.
When the Southern railway subsidy
appropriation was declared carried,
Mr.. Baker demanded tellers. Only ten
Democratic members arose to support
his demand. When the chairman an
nounced that vote by tellers was de-
MED many members laughed This an
gered Mr. Baker.
Fiercely excited, he cried out: This
is the funeral of the Democratic
party"
Then there was more laughter. He
secured recognition and denounced
Mr.. Wiley, (Dem., Alabama) who it
appeared, had remarked to fellow
member in loud whisper, give him
enough rope and he will hang him
self"
The Democrats" he said, had
hung themselves by playing into the
hands of the Republicans.
How can you now vote against the
ship subsidy measure" he shouted,
when you have voted for this unadulr
terated steal?"
He launched into an attack on the
southern Democrats for "foisting on
the Democratic party as presidential
candidate, a man chosen by the
trusts" "Are you pleased with your
.work?" he shouted turning to his col
leagues from the south. "If not a
monopolist himself. Parker's candi-
dacy he charged, was at least initiated
and manipulated by monopolies"
''You men," he fairly shouted, pointing
to his Democratic colleagues, were so
anxious to get slices of Office that you
