Washington, D. G., May i.-Respon-
sibility for the expenses Of the removal
of the Cherokee Indians from the east

than half century ago, has been de-
cided by the supreme court of the

Boston, Mass, May May day was
marked by numerous minor strikes in
New England. The majority Of the
d1fhculties is confined to the building
trades.
Duluth, Mimi, May 1.-The marine
Strike was officially inaugurated at
midnight. The tugmen were not no
titled and are working as usual
chicago, May besides the big
strike of the longshore men on the
great lakes, which involves thousands
or seamen and laborers and is felt at
nearly every principal port. other I'M
ionists are reported striking as fol-
lows: Chicago, three thousand iron
workers; Indianapolis, four hundred
carpenters: Youngstown, Ohio, six
hundred various building trades, Gin
cinnati, five hundred planning mill en-
ployes, several hundred pipe filters
and electricians; Pittsburg, seven hun
dred structural iron workers.
Cleveland, o., May LIVERY mem
per OF the International Longshoremen,
Marine and Transport Workers union
employed on the boats and docks of
the Lake Carriers association quit
work at midnight and today not
pound OF ore, coal, or grain Is being
handled in the port of Cleveland. The
same condition exists practically at
every Lake Erie port. In Cleveland
1000 men are directly affected.
Chicago Longshoremen Quit.
Chicago, May Three thousand
longshoremen quit work at midnight
at South Chicago.
In all the ports Of the great lakes
boat owners worked up to midnight to
get their ships laden and away from
shore before the strike order took ef-
feet.
For time at least no effort will be
made to operate the docks with non
union men, say Cleveland dispatches,
and the tie-up will be complete. The
local dock managers had a meeting
with their men, and the employees were
instructed to remain away from the
docks after today.
Finish Fight Is Prospect.
Now that the showdown has come,
everything points to a fight to the fin
ish. Vessel men and dock managers
who have looked for an early settle
ment of the trouble, now predict a
hard fight, which will practically tie
up navigation on the great lakes. Dur
ing the past thirty days iron ore ship
pers have been preparing for trouble
by rushing material forward to the
furnaces. and they say that il the
strike lasts two months they will not
suffer.
Ask Recognition.
There Is no dispute over wages or
working conditions, and the refusal of
the vessel owners to recognize or treat
with the Lake Pilots Protective asso-
citation is the whole cause of the tie
up. The pilots, while maintaining a
national association OF their own, are
affiliated with the International Long
shoremen, Marine and Transport
Workers association, and the ore and
freight handlers, grain scoopers and
affiliated workmen are striking in sup
port Of the demands of the pilots.
The Lake Seamen's union is not in
volved in the controversy, and its
members will not strike. If the YES
sells are tied up, however, the seamen
will be thrown out of employment. At
least 10000 marine workers will be
affected, according to the estimates Of
the strike leaders.

HARMFUL STOMACH DOSING.
No Need of 1t When Hyomei is Used
to Cure Catarrh.

Physicians and scientists agree that
the less medicine one swallows, the
better. 1t is in keeping with this idea
that Hyomei is recommended by lead
ing physicians throughout this and
other catarrhal sections.
When this treatment is used in ca
tarrhal troubles. there is no stomach
dosing. for the medicine is taken in
with the air you breathe, and goes
right to the spot where the catarrhal
germs are present, healing the in
famed and irritated mucous mem
brane, killing the disease germs and
entering the blood with the oxygen,
driving all catarrhal germs from the
system
Do not try to cure catarrh of the
head by putting medicine into your
stomach-this is neither a scientific
nor common-sense treatment. Breathe
the healing balsams of Hyomei and in
few days you will notice relief. and
its continued use will result in a
complete and lasting cure.
Bratton Drug Co. has seen so many
cures made by Hyomei amongst their
customers. several of them cases
where all hope Of relief had been
given up. that they give an absolute
guarantee to cure. or money will be
refunded, with every outfit they sell.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81. while extra bottles OF Hyomei,
.if needed, are only 30 cents.

to the bridge and caught a view of

President Arthur was accused of

His political enemies accused him
then of venturing across the Canadian
line on a fishing excursion. The boun-
Diary between Canada and New York
extends to the middle of the ST Law

President Cleveland was similarly
accused. On one of his trips to Nor.h
Carolina he sailed by the ocean route
past Cape Hatteras. His enemies con-
tended that he ventured outside the
three mile limit.
According to international law

miles outside it's coast line. Plying
the seas farther than this is leaving
home territory, which, of course, Pres
ident Roosevelt will be obliged to DC

SChnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flue Cured
Tobacco Grown in the Piedmont Country
The Imitation Brands Have SChnapps
Quality Only On the Outside
Of the Plug

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to-
bacco. The outside of the imitation
plugs Tobacco is fue cured the same
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled
with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened
air cured tobacco. One chew of
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to-
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made so much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in VIC
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these infringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A
great many of these limitations are

Washington, d. c., Oct. SO.-When
President Roosevelt goes aboard ship
next week and starts for Panama he
will be doing something that none of
his twenty-five predecessors in the
executive chair ever attempted, and
that is to journey beyond the bounda-
~ lines of the United States during
his term of office. Mr.. Roosevelt on
more than one occasion since he as
sumed office has shown that he is not
the man to search for a precedent
when he believes it is necessary to
act. But never before has he so COM
pletely upset tradition as in the case
of his trip to the isthmus.
It has often been stated that the
president must not leave the United
States even for a day. But this re-
striction is not imposed by statute.
1t is only an old, unwritten law which
has been respected by all successors
of George Washington.
President Mckinley emphasized his
respect for this rule on his memorable
tour of the South and West 1t was
unofficially announced that he would
meet President Diaz of Mexico, some
where near the boundary CT thaJ Sis
ter republic. A controversy as TO
whether Mr. Mckinley might properly
cross the Mexican line, even for
few hours, arose.
