"A few years ago a steamship like the
Coptic coming into port with a sup
posed case Of plague aboard, would
have created an interest and excite
ment that would have overshadowed
everything else. But the Coptic came
in yesterday with the yellow flag up
and uncertainty until late in the after
noon whether or not it was a case of
plague, and the matter attracts very
little attention. The growth of the
city and a better system of handling
such things, stricter from a sanitary
point of view, but less oppressive and
bothersome to business, has robbed
such incidents of their terror.

TRY MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
Berlin Will Take Over Large Private
Holdings.

Berlin, February 6.-The munich
pal authorities of Berlin have decided
to venture into the field of municipal
ownership and in a short time the
reuired steps will be taken for the ac-
QUESTION of the property, rights and
privileges of the Berlin Street Rail-
way company, which has practically
the monopoly of the street railroads
of Berlin and its suburbs.
The plan has been advocated for a
long time by a certain faction of the
Berlin city council but not until last
week did the authorities reach any
definite decision. As the various sub
urban towns surrounding Berlin have
their own municipal boards and Off
cials it was necessary to reach an
agreement with them before anything
definite could be done, as the stree
car lines in most cases connect the
suburban towns.
Last week a conference of the Ber-
lin municipal authorities with the
municipal officers of the eight prin-
cipal suburbans towns, including
Charlottenburg, was held, in which
it was resolved to acquire the proper
ty and rights of the Berlin Street
Railway company and to operate the
lines on the joint account of the mu-
inequalities concerned IN the plan.
The company has a capital Of $685.
100000. Bonds will be issued by the
city to pay for the property ac-

MAY CLOSE NAVY YARD.
Brooklyn Plant the Victim of Re
trenChmcnt.

Brooklyn, Feb. "a feeling of un-
certainty prevails among the officers
and employees connected with the
Brooklyn navy yard owing to disqui-
citing reports concerning the immedi-
ate future of that institution. 1t is
said that the navy department is con-
fronted with the prospect of having
to close the navy yard at Brooklyn as
well as at other points.
This unusual state of affairs is the
result Of a failure of the house appro-
priation committee to include in the
urgent deficiency bill items sent in by
the bureaus of yards and docks to
cover existing obligations for the re-
mainder of the current fiscal year an
for the maintenance of plants at naval
yards and stations. Rear Admiral En-
dicott, chief of the bureau, recently
presented an estimate amounting to
s175, 900 to meet deficiency covering
nearly all of the navy yards, and of
this amount $3S, 900 had been actually
obligated, and must, in any event, be
specially provided for by congress.
Somehow the house committee fail
ed to include the provision in the bill
and unless something is done In the
senate to furnish the money required
for the maintenance OF naval plants
the bureau of yards and docks will be
required to economize by withdrawing
from some Of the obligations 1t has
| imposed upon the government. This
can only be done by furloughng en-
ployes, by cancelling contracts for coal
and water and by cutting off all ex-
penditures, n course which would have
far-reachng effect. or course, II
the funds for lighting, power and la
Dor are not forthcoming, it will be
necessary to stop work in the naval
plants in Brooklyn, and the situation
seems certain to be remedied as soon
as the real significance of the COM
mittee's oversight is fully known.

disturbed condition of internal affairs
in Russia.
The bureau of statistics is of the
opinion that these figures do not ac-
curately represent the aggregate
trade, for the reason that because of
the lack of direct steamship lines be-
tween American and Russian ports
goods shipped from this country and
ultimately reaching Russia, and vice
versa, are in many cases consigned
to various European ports, like Liver
pool, Bremen, Hamburg, ETC., and
thence transshipped to the ports of
ultimate destination, or, in the case
of American shipments to Russia,
placed aboard the railroad cars for
overland transportation.
This is particularly true of raw
cotton. by far the largest item of ex-
portation to Russia from this coun-
try. AS a matter of fact, the Off
cially recorded imports of American
cotton into Russia in the five-year
period ended December 81, 1904, are
stated in the official reports of the
bureau of statistics to have been
266, 100000 pounds, or less than 80
per cent of the direct imports record
ed by the Russian customs authorities
Nor can it be said that the Russian
figures credit this country with all the
cotton shipments originating here.
Taking for example, the Russian
figures of cotton imports for the cal.

in The case of United States Senator
Smoot, which had been postponed
from January 25, to enable Hon. John
G. Carlisle, counsel for the protestants
to be present to interrogate the wit

chair. A large number of witnesses )
Will be heard and strong protests
against Smoot be submitted.
The success of the famous petition
that was presented in the house of
representatives against Roberts has
prompted the getting up of a still
larger petition against Smoot in the
senate. 1t was signed by over 1,00O,-
900 persons, members Of the National
League of Women's organizations, and
is the most numerously signed protest
ever presented in the United States
senate. The petition was bound in As

Alabama Lady's
CURE BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"About four years ago was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face
and a few covering my body, which
produced severe itching irritation, and
which caused me great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, to such an extent that
was forced to call in two of the leading
physicians of my town. After thor
ough examination of the dreaded COM
plant they announced it to be skin
eczema in its worst form. They treated
me for the same for the length Of one
year, but the treatment did me no good.
Finally l became Respondent and
decided to discontinue their services.
Shortly afterwards, my husband in read
ing q copy Of a weekly New York
paper saw an advertisement Of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. He purchased the en-
tire outfit, and after using the contents
of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. l continued the use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch was entirely
gone and the affected parts were left as
clear as ever. l have not felt symp-
tom of the eczema since, which was three
years ago.
"The Cuticura Remedies not only
cured me of that dreadful disease,
eczema, but other complicated troubles
as well; and ! have been the means Of
others being cured of the same disease
by the Cuticura Remedies, and ! don't
hesitate in saying that the Resolvent
is the best blood medicine that the world
has ever known" Lizzie E. Sledge,
