WOMEN PAY MORE,
Why Insurance Companies Discriminate
Against the Gentle Sex.

$500"
II one is to believe the medi-
cal examiners the reason a
woman pays more for the priv
ilege of life insurance is that
she is much more commonly a
victim of indigestion and stom-
ach troubles and the fatal all
ments that spring from these
causes
1t is not the acute attacks of
disease that influence the in
surance examiners alone, but
the constant feelings of weak
ness, headache, Indigestion and
stomach trouble. These things
physicians say, kill more people
than many of the serious dis.
eases.
For curative power in all
stomach troubles nothing else is
as safe yet effective, nothing
else can be so thoroughly relied
upon 10 relieve all troubles of
indigestion, as Mio-na. 1t is
mike any remedy heretofore
known; it is not a mere dlges-
tive tablet; il strengthens and
rest ores to natural action the
stomach and bowels and makes
complete cure in even the
worse form of stomach
troubles.

SENIOR UGARTE IS RECEIVED.
state Department az Last Recognize

StaNe NJ az Inst 1GeVE
HOndurRn Government.
Having been satisfied Of the stability OF
the provisional government set up in
Honduras under the Presidency OF Manuel
Davila, the United States government has
decided to recognize it as the de facto and
de jure government.
Senor Ugarte, who has been in this city
for some months bearing credentials as
the Minister of Honduras to the United
States. but who has not heretofore been
able 10 present his papers. was notified
yesterday of this action, and. calling upon
Acting Secretary of State Adee. was
formally received.
The new government succeeds that OF
Manuel Bonilla. who engaged in war
with Nicaragua, was beaten. and was
forced 20 flee into exile after the battle Of
Amapala.
Negotiations for the purpose Of bringing
about the holding OF a conference between
representatives CT the FIVE Central Amer
lean states either here or in Mexico City,
for the purpose of making a permanent
peace pact, including arbitration Of all
questions between the individual govern
ments, are progressing favorably, and
will, IL is believed, be advanced by the
recognition of the Honduran government
by the United States.
The difficulty has heretofore been that
while al Of the five countries interested
are in favor of the holding OF such a
conference. neither of them has cared
TO take the initiative in calling il. Al
the same time neither the United States
nor Mexico has felt Ike assuming the
responsibility for fear lest their motives
might be misconstrued. 1t is thought
possible that SenOr Ugarte, being the
newest arrival. may not feel so restrained
as his colleagues from Central America.
and that he may be the one on behalf
of his government, to take the initial
steps toward bringing about the confer
ence.
This is regarded as all the more prob
able because in the event Of another war
between Nicaragua and Salvador, 1t is
more than likely that Honduras, which
lies between the two. would be the bat
tie ground.

PROPOSED MERGER OPPOSED

New England Consolidation.
New Haven and Boston and Maine
Railroads Plans VIII BE
blocked, II Possible.

The proposed merger Of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford and the Boston
and Maine railroads is under lnvestiga-
tion by the Federal government. and If
the proposed consolidation is carried
through il win be done only after the
President and the Department Of Justice
are satisfied that there IS nothing in the
national code Of laws that can prevent il.
Attorney General Bonaparte was in con-
ference yesterday with District Attorney
French at Boston over the long-distanc7
telephone. this business being the last
that was transacted by MIR. Bonaparte
preparatory to his retirement TO Lenox.
Mass. for another period Of recreation
Inquiries at the Department OF Justice
brought forth little information beyond
the fact that the contemplated merger OF
the two big railroad systems in New Eng
land was under consideration by the Fed
eral authorities. and no hint as TO the
character OF government aid that might
be invoked TO prevent the merger was
vouchsafed. All that could be learned in
plain English was that "the matter is in
the hands Of District Attorney French"
Another feature Of the investigation
into the affairs OF the New Haven Road
and the Boston and Maine is an inquiry
regarding the acquisition OF electric
trolley roads IN New England by the
New Haven corporation. A great num-
Der Of competing trolley lines have been
acquired by the New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad, especially in Con-
necticut and Massachusetts. and the De-
partmeut OF Justice wants 10 know
whether the acquisition Of these lines
does or does not form a violation of the
antitrust or interstate commerce law.
