that American girls who married
abroad mostly for foreign titles, had
carried with them to Europe the as

Paris writer did not associate this
rather startling statement with the re-
ports of tight money in America, yet
on this side of the Atlantic the fact
that hundreds of millions of dollars

fanciful as well as social speculation

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is iLfamed, you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when
it is entirely closed. Deafness is the re-
suit. and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored
to lis normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever: nine cases out ~of
ten are caused by Catarrn, which is
nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

practically unanimous vote OF the Fed
Grafton of Labor Sunday in an ex-
citing session, during which the alarm
lists and mouthy agitators were
promptly squelched by the conserva-
tives. The vote followed Immediately
on motion by Secretary Nickels that
any union having a checking account
with any bank should institute re-
ownership proceedings if cash pay
nents were refused for any check
properly drawn and signed. Immedi-
ately the storm broke.
"You had better go carefully on this
subject" shouted George ]. Thorn >.s

Several other speeches were made
along the same lines, the conservatives
plainly telling the agitators that the
banks were protecting the people
against their own folly and should be
upheld and thanked for the splendid
service.
Only two votes in the great gather
ing were against the expression OF

The above in brief, is the fuel situa-
ton in the northwest and is merely
given in response to numerous inquiries
received at The Statesman Office daily.
THE people Of Walla Walla are in
quisitive; they want to know exactly
how Walla Walla stands on the map"
said a prominent local dealer yester
day. While some dealers are loud in
their condemnation against the press,
believing thai the newspapers are
soaring the people, l still maintain
that a careful survey of the situation
financial gain in being too optimistic.
Rather ii is harmful because if the
people are cOntented to let the situa-
ton stand without offering protest, it
is indeed likely that little will be done
to relieve the present condition. l am
firm in my belief that there will be no
fuel famine in Walla Walla and l do
not wish to be understood as predicting
a fuel shortage. What l do wish to
say is that there is a congestion of

west, and that this condition, should
it continue. is likely to have is effect
on the coal situation"
Recent reports from Tacoma state
that railroad companies in the west are
sadly crippled for want of motive pow
err and in many cases are unable to
supply their own bunkers with coal,
Winter is fast approaching when every
engine will consume almost double the
amount of fuel The question now be-
Would such condition exist, We're it
possible to remedy it?''
Local railroad men admit. among
themselves, that the bOilermakerS'
strike is greatly affecting the present
fuel situation Naturally this is denied
to the public The admission comes
hard, yet it is nevertheless known
fact that the striking boilermakers are
directly irresponsible for inadequate mo-
tive power. Hundreds of huge engines
are peacefully resting in their stalls,
simply because the railroad companies
are unable to secure boilermaker la
Dor.
Not only are the fuel dealers suffer-
ing from this congestion, but the local
merchants as well. Hardware and gro
Gerry firms are even now waiting long
and patiently for eastern shipments
ordered during the month of September.
While the law requires that cars shall
move at least so miles a day, it is
known that six and even seven days
are sometimes requested to ship a dis
lance of $50 miles.
Dispatches from Great Falls say that
there are 100 cars of stock held up
between that city and Chicago by con-
gested traffic. Tacoma says that 10000
cars of freight move out of that city
and that the difficulty of OBJ
tanning motive power is Increasing
