Morse who two years ago was rated
as being worth upwards OF $4,000 600,
yesterday swore under oath that he had
not enough money or securities left
from mis- vast fortune TO pay his debts
This revelation was made when Morse's
attorneys appeared in the United States
circuit court of appeals to argue for
the admission of Morse to bail. Morse,
who has been sentenced to fifteen years
imprisonment at hard labor in the fed
eral prison at Atlanta, Ca. was not
permitted to leave the Tombs yester-
day, but an affidavit made by him was
read. The motion was argued before
Judge Laeombe. Ward and Coke, and
decision was reserved. Ii had not been
expected that Morse would make the
plea that be was bankrupt, as ever
since the financial panic which swept
the greater part of his fortune away
he has maintained that he would be
able to adjust his affairs to tine salts
faction of all creditors and Judge
Hough, in refusing to grant an apnl-
cation for bail after he had sentenced
Morse, said that one reason for refus-

worth sa2, 100000, and that it would

THE DOCTORS QUESTION.
Advice Against the Use of Harsh Purga-
tives and Physics.

A doctors first question when consult
ed by patient is, Are your bowels
regular ~ He knows that ninety eight
per cent. of illness is attended with in
active bowels and torpid liver. This
condition poisons the system with nox-
ious gases aud waste matter which nat
prally aecumulates and which must be
removed through the bowels before
health can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and eathartics may
be truly likensd to dynamite. Through
their harsh, irritating action they force
passage through the bowels, causing
pain and damage to the delicate intes-
final structure which weakens the whole
system, and at best only produces tenn
porary relief. The repeated use of such
treatments cause chronic irritation of
the stomach and bowels, hardens their
tissues deadens their nerves, stifIens
their muscles and generally brings about
an injurious habit which sometimes has
fatal results.
