VIOLATE FISHING LAWS.
Americans Cross Boundary Line and
Fish in Canadian Waters.
SO DECLARES CAPTAIN CHATTER
Reports to Washington Transorcs
sions Are Committed on Lake Eric
Fish Appear to Prefer Waters Of
Dominion.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE contro.
versy which has been waged between
the American and Canadian lake fish.
ermen for the past twenty years has
been placed in an entirely different
light by report made 10 the state
department. by Captain E. c. Chayter,
commanding the United States reve.
nue. cutter Morrill, on the great lakes.
The report shows in substance that
the American fishermen have been
transgressors and that they have been
treated with the greatest considea-
ton by the Canadian government fish.
ing patrol.
Some time ago the state department
favOrably considered plan OF set
Ting temporarily the veXed question
of fishing rights on Lake Erie by plac'
ing a series of buoys in the middle CT
the lake to define the international
boundary. The Canadian government
cordially accepted this proposition,
and Captain Chayter was instructed to
place the buoys.
Now Captain Chayter says that the
American fishermen cross the
boundary for the reason that there
are comparatively few fish south of
the line, and they are bound to follow
the fish. He says that Captain Dunn
OF the Canadian patrol boat Vigilant
contrary to report, has been very
lenient towards these fishermen, al
ways giving them the benefit of any
doubt as to location and for the past
ten years he has observed the inter
national boundary as indicated on the
United States charts. No Canadian
fishermen poach on the American SIDE
of the line for the same reason; the
fish are in Canadian waters.
Captain Chayter says these tenn
porary buoys will be swept away by
the ice next winter and should be re-
placed by permanent buoys, lighted a..
night, SO as not to endanger navig--
ton.

Vegetable Compound had saved other women

and in less than four months / was entirely
cured; and words fail to express my thank

Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 Sd
Street, Milwaukee, Wis, writes:
Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
"Loss of strength, extreme nervousness,
severe shooting pains through the pelvic
organs, cramps, bearing-down palms, AMI an
irritable disposition compelled me 70 seek
medical advice. The doctor, after making
an examination, said that | had a serious
female trouble and liberation, and advised an
operation as my only hope. To this strongly
objected-and decided as last resort to try
Lydia +. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound.
ITO my surprise the liberation healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared, and am once
more strong, vigorous and well; and l cam
not express my thanks for what it has done
for me-"

ly on the increase among womenr-and

every woman should try Lydia r.

For thirty years Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been curing
the worst forms of female complaints,
all functional troubles, inflammation,
liberation, falling and displacement,
weakness, Irregularities, indigestion

TARIFF REVISION.
A Task That Involves Many Difficult
Problems.

Problems.
The next task President Roosevelt Is
said to have In his minds eye is tariff
revision. That task involves more in
trlcate problems than the Panama ca
nal, consular service reorganization,
the pure food bill or even railroad rate
regulation.
Conceding that the present tariff
needs pruning in spots, the question is
where to begin, when to begin and
how far 1t is safe to use the pruning
knife.
Tariff revision of course involves a
reduction of duties on commodities OF
foreign production, and the mere pro-
posal Of material change of import
duties on any commodity produces Il
decline of its market price. 1t goes
without saying that no merchant will
invest in any particular line of goods
that are liable to shrink in price on his
shelf. 1t is perfectly safe for a mer-
chant to buy when prices are going up,
but it is an extra hazardous risk to buy
any more of any line of goods when
prices are declining than can be dis
posed of to consumers on short notice.
In other words, merchants do not lay
in large stocks on a declining market
or, on an unsettled market The men
ace OF tariff revision would within
itself constitute potential element
for commercial contraction and stag
nation. To effect revision with the
least harm to the country is therefore
the problem President Roosevelt will
have to solve.
1t goes without saying that even the
most rampant free trader would not
want to precipitate panic or CONNER
cial distress. especially in times of gen
eral prosperity. Commercial prece-
dence would dictate that general tariff
revision be postponed to period of
general depression, when production
has overtaken consumption and the
country cannot be seriously affected
by the closing down of factories anu
mills. In plain English, tariff revision
can be accomplished more safely in
hard times than in prosperous times.
President Roosevelt may haye to put
off that delicate tariff task for the last
part of his term. All that the ne:;;
congress will be in position TO under
take without creating serious disturb
ance in the commercial world would
be the preparatory work OF inveStigat t
ing the subject with Il view to eradl-
eating the worst evils that have sp.G.g

When physician tells a woman, suf-
fering from female trouble, that an
operation is necessary it, OF course,
frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart. AS one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
Unjust undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
because q great many women have
been cured by Lydia e. PinlIham' S
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief, this medicine is ceEtain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia +. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, have
escaped serious operations.

TAKES FATAL PLUNGE.
French Submarine Boat Lost In Tunis
Waters.

Paris, Oct I'm. Thomas, the
minister of marine, has received an
official dispatch from the naval COM
mandant at Biserta confirming the
sinking of the submarine Lutin. The
message says:
"The submarine Lutin, while exer-
cising off the jetties, disappeared
from the view of the accompanying
tug. Search and dragging operations
were begun Immediately and resist
ance was felt at a depth of 1870 feet
near the place where the Lutin sank"
Bissrta, Tunis, Oct. 1.-THE
French submarine kutin left this
port Tuesday morning for piunging ex-
periments. Signals received at 10
o'clock last Night reported her disap-
pearance. Two torpedo boats and
three tugs have gone out in search
of the submarine.
1t now appears almost certain, ac-
cording to news received at late
hour that the crew of the Lutin has
suffered fate similar TO that which
overlook the crew of the submarine
Farfadet here last year. The crew of
the Lutin numbered IA men, under the
command of Lieut.. Phoepen.
The reported loss of the Lutin re-
calls the catastrophe to the French
submarine boat Farfadel July G, 1905,
at the entrance to the Port Of Sid

of the Farfadet noticed at the mo.
