HEItE are q HUSt OF Vel0y dIfIIeH0s
which are the direct result of the
weather.
This is more true of the excessive heat
of summer and the intense cold of win
ter, but is partly true of all seasons of
the year.
Whether it be a cold or a cough, ca
tarrh of the head or bowel complaint,
whether the liver be affected CIR the kid
neys, the cause is very liable to be the
same.
The weather slightly deranges the
mucous membranes of the organs and
the result is some functional disease.
Peruna has become a standby in
thousands of homes for minor sii-

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
Sealer Haskell Submits Report to the
Commissioners

The work of the sealer of weights and
measures Office during the past fiscal year
has increased and Is largely in excess of
that OF the previous year, according to the
annual report of w. w. Haskell Sealer,
submitted to the Commissioners today
Inspections number y POI, in increase of
1.265 over the preceding year. The total
amount of receipts collected by this office
was S24,G77. which IS an increase of $1,000
The next receipts of the department were
S1065s.
In a summary statement, showing the
number Of inspections and receipts of
this office since its origin in 1891 it Is
shown that the receipts have increased
In that time more than $4,000. The
greatest source of revenue Is the rentals
for the stands in the three markets
owned by the District, which amounted
to S10.206
Sealer Haskell says that one of his most
difficult tasks was to get certain grocers
to keep their scales in balance, instead of
having the scales start the one or two
ounce mark. and many and various in
genious devices were resorted to for the
purpose of pulling the scales down to their
advantage. A number OF grocers were prose-
cuted.
The report concludes with the statement
that the increased business of rhe office de-
mandS a reorganization. and the Sealer will
soon submit for the consideration of the
Commissioners bill covering the matter.

ARGUED BY COUNSEL.
Suit Of Hotel Proprietor Against the
Excise Board.


After hearing arguments of counsel
Chief Justice Clabaugh today took under
consideration the petition of Thomas B.
LIE Cuyer, proprietor of the Columbia
Hotel 1413 Pennsylvania avenue north
west. to compel the excise board to grant
liquor license for his hostelry
Attorney Davis. for the petitioner, ar
gued that the excise board was clothed
by the law with a mere ministerial duty
to issue a license to an established hotel
or tavern having more than twenty five
rooms for guests when the applicant
has complied with the requirements Of
the law by securing a majority of ad-
]acent property owners and residents.
They may revoke a license, he admitted
when requested by majority of property
interests or when the proprietor had been
twice convicted in a license year of keeping
disreputable house. He emphasized the
necessary convictions and declared that
they must be before court of law and
denied to the excise board any judicial or
quasi-judicial authority in the premises.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Blair for
the board, maintained that the law gives
to the board the right to examine into the
liquor license. and 1t had in this case de-
termined adversely to the applicant This
decision. he urged, was purely within the
boards discretion and such was not
renewable in court Of law.
The return of the excise board had at
tached to 1t report made by the superin-
tendent Of police on the character of the
place kept by the applicant and of the
reputation borne by number of his
guests. which charges 1t is alleged were
made at public hearing before the board
and not denied by the applicant.

INTER-MET TO SHOW BOOKS.
Company Yields to the Public Service
Commission.

NEW YORK. September 2.-The direct
ors of the marlborough Metropolitan Com
pany have decided to give up their books to
the public service commission. The dema nd
for the books was made three weeks ago,
but the company contended that as the
Inter-Met. was merely a holding and not an
operating company the commission had no
jurisdiction over 1t. The company receded
from that position at a meeting held at the
offices OF the company yesterday.
The public service commission continued
yesterday the hearing on the tentative or
ders 1t has issued for increasing the car
services on the surface lines. Attention
was given yesterday to the Madison avenue
and 4th avenue line. Oren Root general
manager Of the Metropolitan system. was
on the stand for the greater part OF the
hearing and reported that 1t was impossible
to better the conditions because il more
cars were put on. with the existing vehicu-
lar traffic COMPOSITIONS at the 23d and 42i
street crossings, 1t would be impossible to
move them. Mr. Root said that tire COM
pany was preparing to make more conspicu-
Gus at night the destination signs of the
cars.
Condemnation Of the New York Centrars
tracks on 18th avenue was practically de-
termined upon yesterday by the commits
sion when at the morning meeting of the
board a resolution was adopted directing
the preparation of maps showing the situa-
ton of the tracks to be condemned and that
such maps should be presented as soon as
possible. The old Rapid Transit commits
sion sought to compel the company to
place Its street tracks in a subway, but the
company wanted an elevated structure. The
company IS still willing to build an elevated
structure. and IL the commission attempts
to make 1t take the tracks off the streets
or to depress them the company will fight
1t In the courts.

Changes in Police Department

Private Timothy ]. Cullinane of the po-
lice department has been dismounted and
Private J. F. Sprinkle placed on horseback
This is the result Of a case in which the
former was found guilty OF conduct unbe-
coming an officer and fined.
The superintendent of police states that
as mounted men do not have that direct
supervision by superiors that is maintai ned
in the thickly settled sections they are
placed on their honor largely to perform
faithful duty in the suburban sections. The
care of lives and property intrusted to them
is important with a limited force, and men
who cannot be depended upon In mounted
service will have to give up such assign
ments Mounted men who abuse the con-
fdence of the department, Maj. Sylvester
says, fall to low estimate at Headquarters.
