from nervous dyspepsia and my physi-

worked wonders for him.
'We soon learned that Postum does
not exhilarate or depress and does moi

 The entire situation is now believed to rest with President John Mitchell. The convention. at its session this af- ternoOn, which was a very brief one, decided to refer the entire question to the general scale committee of thirty six. with instructions to report recom- mendations to the convention tomor- row at 10 o'clock. The reference brought into the situation for the first time since the delegates began to ar rive in the city a possible suggestion of peace, though it is generally believ- ed tonight that a majority of the dele gates still favor the declaration of a strike

Abuse of Railroad Privileges Will Result in Curtamsnt ot Free Transportation Municipal Committee Win Soon Give Way to Regularly Constituted Authorities

San .Francisco, May 4.-With the in- creasing number of daily disrnissaIs of its sub-committees, the general mr- nicipal committee will doubtless soon pass out of existence, ana the direc- tion of the affairs of the ci.y will be restored to the regularly constituted officials. Many of the subordinate bodies have reported their labors com pleted and have been relieved from further duty. When the general com mittee finally adjourns there will re- main of the various organizations that were formed immediately following the days of disaster only the commr,:ee on reconstruction of fhe finance com mittee.

There has been no perceptible diminution in the number of persons applying for free transportation for points outside of the city and state, and despite meas ures to prevent unworthy persons from profiting by the generosity of the railroads, it Is believed this privilege has been abused. A prominent passen- ger agent Of one of the large roads said today that in consequence it is likely that the giving of free transportation to women and children and of half rates 10 certain classes of men may be stopped at any time.

THE SENATE.

Washington. May 4.-In accordance with the agreement or last MOonday the senate today entered upon the con- sideration of amendments to the rail- road ra.e bill under the fifteen-minute rule. Little progress was made.
 The greater part Of the day was de- voted to Mir. Lodges provision bringing pipe lines within the terms Of the bill and it was ultimately unanimously agreed to after amending it so as to exclude gas and water lines from it's operation, thus practically confining it to oil lines. There were two roll cal s, but neither was of importance, as on one accepting the amendment there was no division whatever, while the action taken on the other. on the ques- tioning of confining the provision to oil lines. was practically nuIIified by the subsequent elimination of gas and water from the amendment. The pro- vision was so amended as to make it applicable to the oil pipe line in the Panama canal zone.
 A proposition by Mir. Foraker to ex- clude refrigerator cars from the re- quiTements Of the bill ana another by NIT. McCumber, making the require ments concerning those cars more stringent than in the original bill, were impartially voted down.
 During the day there were many short speeches on the amendments and also more or less discussion of points Of order. Upon the whole the days proceeding was quite perrunctory. be- ing rendered so by the general knowI- edge of the fact that the republican senators were on the eve of an agree ment that would determine the char actsr of the bill. There was an evident general disposition to await that agree ment and an adjournment over tomor- row was taken for the purpose of hav- ing it perfected.

Senate Spent Tss Time in a Psrfunc- tOfy Way, and in f1aking Amend- meats to the Rate Bill.

Washington, May 1.-The house spent another day in consideration of the naval appropriation bill, the speeches in a large measure being in support of the bill and the naval program therein outlined. MT. Burton of Ohio delivered a scholarly address against what he termed the needless enlargement of the navy, contendlng that the Amerl- can nation could we'll afford to serve notice upon the other nations that it stood for international arbitration and the peace of the world. MT. Butler or Pennsylvania and Mir. Calder of New York supported the bill, both agreeing that the measure had less to criticize in it than any bin reported from the naval affairs committee in years.
 A feature of today's session was the close attention paid by the house to the reading of the presidents message on oil and transportation and general applause was accorded it on it's conclusion. The house will continue the consideration of the naval bill to- morrow.
