There is more Catarrh in this section OF the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced il a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing TO
cure with local treatment, pronounced II in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by f. c. Cheney g. Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the
market. IL is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to q teaspoonful. IL acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and testl

RUSSIA IS APPREHENSlvE OF
 THE QUESTION BECAUSE THE ARMY IS MADE UP LARGELY OF
 MEN FROM PEASANT GLASSES.

St. Petersburg. June 25.-Apprehension of the government with regard to political agitation in the army is the direct cause of it's efforts for the suppression of the development of the peasant organization. As the majority of the soldiers come from the peasant class. any disaffection in the army Is sure to be spread in the peasant interest, based on parlaments settlement of the agrarian question: Therefore the government is anXiously watching the peasant movement and taking strong measures towards preventing its further development.
 The agitation among the Jews is still manifested in a deluge of appeals to mem bers of Parliament for protection against attacks.

CONGRESS CANNOT
 REGULATE INSURANCE
This Is the Conclusion Reached By the Senate Committee on
 Judiciary.

Washington. June 25.-Congress has no right to regulate insurance according 10 the Senate committee on judiciary. A report from that committee was presented today to this effect by Senator Spooner.' The report was made on a resolution in- structlng the committee to inquire whether Congress has such Q right. Tho report was very brief and ran as fol- lows:
 '"The committee on tho judiciary beg leave to report that it is the unanimous opinion of tho committee that Congress is without authority under the constitu- ton to supervise and regulate the bust ness of marine, fire and life insurance except In the District of Columbia, tho territories and the nsular possessions of the United States"

President Will Stani By Them With Recess Appointments Connection With Railroads
 Caused His Trouble.

Washington. June 95.-(Special)-Ch man Shnnts, Governor Magoon and Joseph B. Bishop of the isthmian canal com mission will not be confirmed at the pres- ent session of Congress.
 Their names were sent to the Senate at the beginning of the present session and have since been held in the canal commit tee. With the adjournment of Congress the President will immediately give them another recess appointment. and will again appoint them when Congress meets next December. Bishop originally drew salary as secretary or "press agent of the commission. In the latter position he was bitterly assaied on the floor of the Senate. and was compelled to give Up the position, the President making him a member of the commission. Shonts' con- nection with railroads brought fight up- on him. and the dual position occupied hy Magoon was among the things to prevent his confirmation. lnasmuch as the three hold onto their offices 1t does not make any material difference how much the Sem ate delays action. The only thing that was sought to be avoided was the rejec- ton of the nominations. something not likely to happen in view of the republican majority.
 It Is assumed that Congress will frame and enact comprehensive and efficient organic act recognizing the canal com mission and providing for the government O. the canal zoNe at the next session. In the meantime the President has full authority under the Spooner law 10 meet emergencies. and as the sundry civil bill carries an appropriation of $25,0Oo00O for construction and administrative purposes. there will be no hitch owing to the fail- ure of Congress to enact additional legls-
