BAD FOR NEGRO SOLDIERS.
A Microscopic Examination Shows
Their Guns Were Used.
Four Rifles Mark Shells Exactly az
Thoc,, Found After Brownsville
Texas Raid.

Washington, March 19.-Four rifles
from company B, 25th infantry, were
used in the Brownsville affray, IL
the army ordinance department can
substantiate reports sent to the SEN
senate committee on military affairs
Monday concerning the microscopic
examinations Of the SO shells picked
up in the streets of the town on the
morning following the shooting.
All the rifles in the possession Of
the battalion at Fort Brown on the
night of August 10 were sent to the
Springfield arsenal two shots were
fired from each. The shells used
were then compared with those pick
ed up at Brownsville and the officers
making the tests reported that 1t has
been demonstrated beyond dispute
that four guns of company B were
used in discharging all of the 80
shells.
Two of Company BIS rifles, said to
have been used in the ARRAY, were
kept in the storehouse under lock, the
key OF which was in the possession
of Former Quartermaster Sergeant
Walker McCurdy, and the other two
rifles were said to have besn issued
to Privates Joseph l.. Wilson and
Thomas Taylor. Senator Foraker i'm
mediately had subpoenas issued for
Taylor and Wilson and for the re-
call of McCurdy. The alleged confess
sion of I'D. w. Gray supposed to be
a member of Company B, which was
printed at Galveston, was formally
denied Monday in a. telegram from
Major Blocks at San Antonio, to the
War department. Major Blocksom
said in his dispatch that he had re-
ceived a telegram from the chief OF
police at Galveston, saying that the
publication was a fake. Senator For
aker had the alleged confession put
in the record with the denial which
had been furnished to Chairman War
rem by the war department. The
Ohio senator also had recorded the
fact that there was not man named
ID. w. Gray in the discharged bat
talon, but that there were two men
named Gray, one G. W. and the other
J. H. Gray, in company C. Both OF
these men were heard from Monday,
denying that they had made confess
sion. One is in West Virginia and the
other in Pennsylvania.

"For years I suffered with female trouble.
It was decided that an operation was neces-

remedy, so quickly did it restore my health.

it has done me-"
Miss Margaret Tierney, of No. 32s
w. 25th Street, New York, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:--
"When only eighteen years Of age our
physician decided that an operation was
necessary to permit of my wonanly organs
performing their natural functions. My
mother objected and being urged by a
relative to try Lydia e. Pinkham's Veget-
able Compound did SO. soon improved in
health, the proper conditions were establish
ed and I am well and strong, thanks to

a record of cures of female ills.

FOR WATER WAYS
President Roosevelt Appoints Com
mission to Consider System of
Water Transportation.
TO SUPPLEMENT RAILROADS
Facilities for the Prompt Handling OF
Freight Business Does Not Keep
up With the Country's
Growth.

Washington, March 10. = Presi-
dent Roosevelt announced the appoint
ment Saturday of an inland waters
commission, of which Theodore Bur.
ton, chairman of the rivers and har
bors committee of the house, is to be
chairman. In letters to members Of
the new commission, defining its scope
and duties, the President outlines in u
more comprehensive way than has
heretofore been attempted even in the
resolution of the river improvement
congresses the ends towards which
this government should strive in de-
velopment of natural and artificial
waterways. One important reason for
the commissions appointment is that
it may study the project of developing
a great system of water transportation
in view of the inability of the railroads
to handle the country's freight.
The members of the commission are
Senator William Warner; Senator
Francis G. Newlands; ex-representa-
tive John H. Bankhead; General Alex
ander Mackenzie; W. J. MCGEE; F. H.
Newall; Clifford Pinchot and Herbert
Knox Smith.
The purpose for which the commits
sion has been formed Is to devise a
comprehensive system of international
waterways. It's scope is not confined
to development of natural waterways
but it can proceed to investigate the
subject of canal construction with the
ultimate end in view of connecting,
through canals, the natural waterways
of the country.
The keynote of the recent success
full river congress in Washington was
that river improvement is rate leg
islation. The same tone pervades the
presidents suggestions to members of
the commission, for he calls attention
to the fact that the railway facilities
are entirely inadequate to handle the
transportation of the cour try.
The president in commCn with all
others who interest themselves in the
development of the country, has been
greatly impressed of late by the re-
peated freight congestions on the great
railroad systems. 1t has been pointed
out by railroad men in explanation OF
these congestions that products of the
Northern interior states have doubled
in ten years while the railroad facil-
tiles have increased only one-eightn.
1t is plain that the development of
the railroads possible in the near flu
ture cannot suffice to keep transpor.
tation abreast with production. The
only apparent remedy for this con-
dition is obviously the development of
supplemental system of transporta.
ton by water In the mississippi val
ley this congestion is greatest and
from its inhabitants the most strenu.
Gus demands for relief are coming. To
this section of the country and its
needs in the way of additional trans.
portation facilities the waterways com.
mission will give special heed.

Germantown Items.

The political situation is becoming very
interesting and exciting to those who
take an interest in politics land all should
be interested more or less). Everyone
is anxious to see how the senatorial fight
is going to terminate and Governor
Warfeld seems to be in the lead just
now: the sentiment of the people is fast
turning liz his favor and If an open and
above board campaign is to count for
ANYTHING, / think Governor Warfeld
will commend himself to every voter. A
square deal is what is demaBded by the
people.
The idea of local option or rather pro-
hibition has taken strong hold upon
the people, much more so than when
