CONGRESSIONAL.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL
SENATE AND HOUSE OF REP
RESENTATWES.

Washington, Feb. G.-The senate
was treated to a sensation yesterday
by Mr.. Patterson democrat, Col.,)
who followed up his retirement of last
Saturday from the democratic caucus
by introducing in the senate a resolu-
tion declaring the action of the caucus
10 have been contrary to the constitu-
ton of the United States Several
bills were passed and Mr.. Teller made
speech in opposition to the shipping
bill. Considerable fault was found
with the railroad rate bill in the house.
Washington, Feb. 7.--Having fixed
the end of the general debate on the
rate bill at 4:30 o'clock to-day, the
recognition of the chair was passed
around at a lively rate in the house
Tuesday. Seventeen speeches were
made, all of them for the measure.
The senate did not have an
opportunity to hear the discussion of
Mr.. Patterson's resolution on the ac-
tion of the democratic caucus as was
partially promised but gave the entire
day to a debate of the prerogatives of
the senate in the matter of framing
treaties.
Washington, Feb 8.-Yesterday for
the first time in many years, the SEN
ate chamber was made the scene of an
effort to administer party discipline to
a member of that body, and the occur
renee was one of many dramatic de-
tails. Mr.. Patterson was the subject
of the effort and Mr.. Bailey, to whom,
in the absence of Mr.. German demo-
cratic leadership is conceded was the
instrument of his party in the Incl
dent. By continuing its session
practically to o'clock. the house CON
cluded all preliminary steps to the
passage of the railroad rate bill, or
dered a roll call on the measure and
put off the final action until to-day.
Washington, Feb. 9.-Just enough
morning business was allowed in the
house preceding the vote on the Hep
burn railroad rate bill yesterday to
permit delayed members to reach
their seats before the roll call or
dered the night before began. Three
hundred and forty-siX members voted
for the bill. Seven, all republicans,
voted against it.
The pension appropriation bill, car
rying S139,OOO,OOO for pensions and
1,245, 900 for pension administration,
was passed without amendment. The
feature of the bill aside from the ap-
preparation made is a provision max
ing statute law of the famous order of
the president declaring age conclusive
evidence of disability.
Washington, Feb. 10.-The house
yesterday groun1 out its usual semi
monthly grist of private pensions,
passing in ~ minutes 429 bills for the
benefit of veterans who are barred for
one reason or another from coming in
under the general statute. Seventy
five per cent. of the beneficiaries are
either blind or bedridden. Almost the
entire session of the senate was de
voted to the consideration of the
urgent deficiency appropriation bill,
which was passed.

WESTERN CANADA'S
MARVELLOUS RETURNS.

The increase in the crop returns Of
the Canadian West in the past seven
years, has approached the marvellous,
and there is no reason to believe that
a corresponding increase will not re-
suit for many years to come. The in
crease has been particularly noticeable
in what was formerly known as the
Northwest Territories, but which, on
September 1, 1905, became the prov
inces of Alberta and Saskatchewan.
From the official returns we find the
following results in the acreage sown
to wheat, oats and barley in the years
mentioned, and a more favorable show
ing cannot be pointed to in any other
country during n like neriOd

ARE STRONGLY ENSURED.
House Cleaning Committee OF New
York Life Insurance CO. Denounces
the Act of Mccall! and Hamilton.

New York. Feb 9.-The special
committee appointed by the trustees
of the New York Life Insurance Co. to
investigate the affairs of the company
made a partial report of its labors to
the directors yesterday. This report
deals only with the relations of An
drew Hamilton, the legislative agent,
with the company and is a severe ar
raignment of his methods.
John A. Mccall. late president of
the New York Life, also comes in for
a share of the committees criticism
He is blamed for his methods in con-
nection with the bureau of taxation
and legislation during the last ten
years and for allowing Hamilton to
pay out vast sums without proper
accounting.
Special attention is called to remit
tances of $4,000 to Mr.. Mccall in Lon
don and $134,500 to Hamilton in Paris
in 1900. The purpose of these remit
tances the committee says it has been
unable to ascertain, and recommends
that proceedings be instituted against
Hamilton and Mccall for an account
ing or repayment.
The committee adds on this point
that application has been made to Mr..
Mccall for information regarding the
transactions, but it is informed by Mr..
McCalls family that his physical and
nervous condition is such that the
subject cannot be taken up at present.
AS to Mr. Hamilton's health, which
has been represented as being bad,
the committee saws il has been in
formed that he was physically able to
travel and has exerted every effort to
induce him to return to make a full
disclosure of his transactions, but
without success.

A MINE HORROR.
Twenty seven Men are Believed to
Have Perished in a Shaft.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 9.--At least
q men are supposed to have met
death in terrible mine explosion in
the Parallel mine of the Stewart Col
liers Co. near Oak Hill. Thirty nine
men were employed in the mine and
only II have escaped alive. At mid
night six bodies had been recovered
near the mouth of the mine and it is
certain that all the others in the mine
are dead.
Robert Feathergill escaped with a
broken leg. The explosion occurred at
1:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon and
was caused by a pocket of gas which
was struck in the mine. The explosion
was terrific and it is thought that
many of the miners were killed out
right by the explosion. The system of
fans was completely wrecked by the
explosion and all air was shut off from
the mines, leaving the men who had
not been killed by the explosion to
smother to death. The mine is a
shaft about 200 feet deep and the un
fortunate miners had little chance of
escape.
Hinton, w. Va, Feb. 1O.-It now
seems settled that there were 81 men
in the Parrall mine near Oak Hill
when the explosion occurred Thurs
day. Eleven were rescued and six
bodies have been recovered, leaving 4
in the mine. Some of those rescued
may die

Castro Prepars for War.

Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Feb.
10.-A traveller who has arrived here
srom Venezuela says: president
Castro is enlisting troops and in other
ways preparing for war. Generals in
each state have been commissioned
and orders have been given to call the
recruits to the colors. Information
from the best sources indicates that
the people do not support Castro. On

A Biq Railway Deal.

Los Angeles, Cal. Feb 1O.-Epes
Randall, acting as agent of f. H. Har
riman, of the Southern Pacific has Sc
cured concessions from the Mexican
government to construct line
through the western coast states of

1t will be seen that the number of
acres sown to wheat. oats and barley
In 1898 was 429, ,749, and that this had
increased in 1904 to 1,5S7,337. The
total crop in the cereals mentioned was
9,033, ,297 bushels in 1898, and in 1904
1t had grown to the magnificent total
of 35,413. .522. In the year just closed
the forward movement" in the agri-
culture of the west has been the won
der and envy of the world. New sec
tions of the country have been placed
under tribute to the plow and harrow,
and the grain area has been largely
increased. This is particularly the
case where it has been demonstrated
that alberta Red" winter wheat may
be successfully grown, and along the
lines of the new railways towards the
center of the country, where mixed
farming prevails.
The future of the Canadian West IS
assured, and for years to come it is
bound to be the land of promise to the
agriculturist of every nation and of
every cline, and the land of oppor-
tunity to every settler within its
bounds.
Fullest information can be secured
from any Canadian Government Agent.

every year except 1900, when there ap
pears to have been a slump all along
the line. This, however, was more
than compensated for in the following
year, when the bumper crop in wheat,
oats and barley put the returns of all
previous years completely in the shade
and gave an impetus to settlement in
the west which has prevailed to the
present, as the following table by bush

<--zz-s---------.s iaaaSannoy you and
make you irritable: you can't sleep.
you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care for
your children.
The relation of the nerves and gem
erative organs in woman is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
slecplcssness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability; spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps; pain in the abdominal
region and between the shoulders; /;
loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a
tendency to cry at the least provoca-
tion-all these point to nervous pros
tration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering so surely as Lydia
f. PinlSham's Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. NJ. i. Shotwcll, of 1O3 Flatbush

and discouraged, exhausted each day,
when you can be as easily cured as
