Treating consumption with cold air
has been proved of great benefit, but
The use of exposure to cure pneumo-
mia, itself due to cold, seems absurd.
This very treatment, however, has
proved efficacious, SO far as it has been
tried by DR.. Thomas s. Dunn at the
Fordham hospital, New York. Instead
of housing the patients In a closed
room with a temperature Of 80 de-
grees, DR.. Dunn has kept 80 pnsumo-
MIA patients in an open tent and every
one has recovered, where the trouble
was not complicated with other dis.
eases.

JUDGE HUMPHREY
FREES PACKERS
INDICTED INDIVIDUALS WIN ON
CLAIM THEY WERE ENTITLED
TO IMMUNITY.
Court Says Evidence Was Obtained
Under Compulsion - Corporations
Must Stand Trial for Violation Of
Antitrust Law.

Chicago, March 22.-Sixteen pack
ers as individuals won the legal bat
tie which they have waged for the
last three months in the United States
district court before Judge Hum
phrey and they were freed Wednesday
from prosecution under the indict-
ment which charges them with at
tempt to conspire to violate the anti
trust and interstate commerce laws.
Corporations Are Held
The judge released the individual
packers on the ground that they were
entitled to immunity from prosecu-
ton, specifically because the investi-
cation of the beef industry in 1904
by Commissioner of Corporations j.
R. Garfield was in effect compulsion
upon the packers to produce evidence
tending to incIiminate themselves
evidence which later was contained in
the indictments against them.
The corporations, it is decided, are
entitled to no such immunity. There
are five Of these, the Armour Pack
ing company, Armour & Co., the Cud-
ahy Packing company, the Fairbank
Canning company, and Swift & Co. 1t
is probable they will not be tried until
next fall. The maximum penalty
which can be imposed upon them is a
fine of $4,000 for each concern on each
of the five counts in the indictment,
the total amounting to $125,0OO.
The individuals who are discharged
by the decision are: J. Ogden Ar
mour, Charles w. Armour, Louis F..
Swift, Charles N. Swift, Edward Cud-
ahy, Arthur F. Evans, L. A. Carton,
Edward Morris, Ira N. Morris, Arthur
h4eeker, T. J. Connors, Patrick A. Val
entine, A. H. Veeder, Robert G. Nc
Manus, D. e. Hartwell.
Decision Far Reaching.
The decision of Judge Humphrey is
regarded here and in Washington as of
far-reaching Importance. 1t means
that new policy will have to be in
augurated by the bureau Of corpora
lions, else every official guilty of vio-
lating the law will escape. The fed
eral authorities are apprehensive that
the decision may mean the escape
from punishment of the officials of
the Standard Oil company, the steel
trust, and the anthracite coal trust,
all Of which have been under examin-
alton by Commissioner Garfield.

DECLARES POLITICAL WAR.
Federation of Labor Urges Action at
Polls Against Candidates Hos
tile to Unionism.

Washington, March 26.-It is being
made plain to members of congress
that the American Federation of Labor
intends to throw it's influence in the
forthcoming elections against men who
are unfriendly to the legislation de-
sired by labor unions. Samuel Com

this effect and has supplemented the
notice which the executive council
served on the president and Speaker
Cannon last week by almost daily
statements clearly indicating belief of
the organization that the Republican
members with the exception of Chair
man Gardner, of the house committee
on labor, either were Indifferent or I'M
friendly to labor legislation there
pending.
There will be systematic effort to
ascertain the views of all candidates
for congress on a radical eight-hour
law, an employers liability law and
other subjects for which legislation
will be urged. The campaign was in
fact begun by the executive council
Saturday by an order to this effect.
Speaker Cannon and Secretary Taft
are two men to whom organized labor
is expected to show hostility first.
Speaker Cannon has gained the par
ticular enmity of federation leaders,
and great interest is felt here in the
fight that may be made against him in
his district next fall.
Secretary Taft, at the time he in
Cured the enmity of labor unions, was
United States judge for the sixth judi
cial circuit In 1893 he issued an in
junction which hurt the cause of
strikers against the Toledo, Ann Arbor
& Northern Michigan railroad.

Great Britain live stock returns for

there are $4,000 less in England now,

men persisted and about score of
firemen and citizens were injured Mon
day in fire accompanied by series
of explosions that demolished a six
story factory building at Bedford and
Downing streets in the Greenwich viii
lage district on the lower West side
of the city. That the damage, which
is estimated at from 100000 to $780,
600, was not far greater, was declared
by Chief Croker to be due to the ex-
plosions which shattered the buildings
and crushed the blaze beneath tons of
debris at the moment when the flames
were completely beyond control and
threatening to sweep the entire block.
One fireman was taken out of the
building alive, but died almost immedi-
ately. The bodies of his three COM
rades were recovered after the fire was
over, crushed under the wreckage of
floors and walls that followed the ex-
blossoms.
Novel Mode of Escape.
Three hundred men and women were
in the factory during the lunch hour,
when a slight explosion occurred on
one of the upper floors, and almost in
stantly the whole structure was en-
velSped in flames. Some had time to
reach the street by the stairs, but the
greater number were compelled to take
refuge on the fire escapes, where they
remained huddled together and implor-
ing assistance until the fire engines ar
rived. Before the fire ladder could be
run up policemen, firemen and volun-
teers formed human pyramid against
the front wall, of the factory, and in
this way handed down to safety up
wards of so girls who were clinging to
the fire escapes in the second floor.
Others jumped into the life saving nets
or on piles of bedding hastily gathered
and heaped on the sidewalks. Within
ten minutes all the occupants of the
building had been taken out in safety
and unhurt, save for minor injuries.

Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation,
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your goodwill, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are i'll, don't hesitate to get a
bottle o. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound at once, and write Mrs. Pink
ham. Lynn. Mass, for special advice.
