CHICAGO, July 11.--Another attack
was made this afternoon upon the In
ternatlonal Harvester company by
Rodney B. Swift, formerly head Of the
experimental Department Of McCor-
mick branch Of the harvester COM
pany. swifts connection with the
company was severed some months
ago and suit commenced against him
by the ofiicials of the company, who
alleged that he had defrauded them In
the sale Of patent. In his bill filed
this afternoon Swift, as a stockholder,
demands an accounting from the com
pany and demands that the court force
the company to cease taking rebates
from railroad companies and also COM
pei the company to return to the rail-
roads moneys, said by Swift to have
been Illegally exacted from them in
the past.
Swift declares that UP to Sept. 30,
1902, the Mccormick branch Of the har-
vester company alone forced the rail-
roads to pay 1t through rebates and
the operation of the Illinois Northern
road a sum in excess Of s3,000,000. Up
to the same date the money received In
rebates by the Plano branch company
through the agency of the Chicago
West Pullman and Southern railroad,
amounted to $500,00O.
Since September 30, 1902, 1t is declared
that nine other railway companies
have been making payments of re-
bates to the International Harvester
company under the guise Of an al
legged division of freight rates with the
Illinois Northern company. Swift as
serts that alleged illegal rebates made
to the International company since 1902
amount to more than $1,OO0.O0O.
Stock Pooled With Trustees
He goes into the details of the or
ganization of the International Har-
vester company, declaring that shortly
after Its formation an agreement was
made between President Cyrus H. Nc
Cormick, Charles Deering, George w.
Perkins and William c. Lane to the
effect that all of the stock Of the In
ternational company should be put in
charge Of the first named three men as
| trustees for voting purposes until 1911
Swift demands that the voting agree
ment be terminated by the court.
1t is further declared in the bill that
the business of the International Har-
vester company is of an extremely pro-
| fitable character. He asserts that
harvesting machines can be produced
and delivered by the company for $57,
that the company receives sos for them
from agents and that these in their
turn sell them for SIPS. Swift says
that all his demands for an examina-
ton of the company's books have been
| refused.

the compilation of the statistics in

ties is to be sought.

Stomach Paralysis
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, properly
named, is Paralysis of the Stomach.

Dyspepsia or Indigestion, property
named, is Paralysis of the Stomach.
When you have water-brash, feel
sick at the stomach, have gas or wind
on it, or feel as though you had a ball
or heavy weight in the pit Of the
stomach after eating, and the nerves
and muscles of that organ cease to
act and digest your food. that stop
page in the process of digestion, to
call it properly, is Paralysis of the
Stomach, and should be treated as
such. 1t is perfect folly to assist the
stomach with dyspepsia remedies and
stimulants to dissolve the undigested
food. You may get relief, but at the
next meal you suffer again. The
proper treatment is to build up the
worn out muscles and nerves OF the
stomach so that 1t can do its own
work without assistance, and not only
digest the food you eat to-day but to-
morrow and forever after: as IS done.

still worse custom.
The style in heads there is to have
the back of the skull as fiat as pos

back of the infants head.
In Brittany many houses have a

man who Unexpectedly came into

They were painted by a Spanish art
