Alleged Offer to Sell Bills Stirs.

The alleged offer of Fitzgerald to
dispose of two $1,000 bills to Col Har-
ry c. Gano, superintendent of A. Booth
& Co.'S cold storage plant for $500
each, is the newest link in the chain
of evidence against the former teller
according to operatives of the Young
agency. Much of the money which dis
appeared from the subtreasury was in
bills of the 81 900 denomination. and
Young declares that he had indisputa-
BILE evidence that Fitzgerald had some
of these greenbacks in his possession.
While he did not make good his offer
to dispose of the large bills, the detec-
tives say that others overheard his of
fer to Col. Gano.
On the other hand. Attorney Ed
ward r. LitZinger, who has been re-
tanned by the prisoner, laughs at the
idea that his client is guilty and says
that the affair is likely to turn out Sc
riouSly for those who caused the ar
rest. The fact that the Federal author
tiles knew nothing of the hunt for the
man who took the $4,000 and the
fact that the States Attorneys office
was cogniZant of the whole case for
weeks before Fitzgerald was arrested is
looked upon by the lawyers as 4 fur

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
 WEAK BODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Common Aches and
 Ills of Humanity.

As one weak link weakens a chain so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking down.
 Overwork, strains, colds and other causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity is lessened the whole body suffers from the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood
 Aches and pains and languor and urinary ills come and there is an ever increasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Brights disease. There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help.
 Doan's Kidneys Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney ill. Their cures are the proof
 l.. r. Allen, gardener. of l5l6 East sixth avenue, Pine Bluff, Arkansas, says; My experience with Doan' s kidney Pills has been exceedingly satisfactory. They stopped the pain Ill my back which was almost con- stant and greatly aggravated if l took cold or did an extra hard days work. In addition to the aching, irreg- alarity of the kidneys secretions ex- lSted and at times they were highly colored. Before l used Doan'S Kidney Pills tried more than one prepara- ton guaranteed to cure kidney com pialnt, but l met with very indifferent success. Deans Kidney Pills helped me from the start. The backache under the treatment grew less and less and soon disappeared

TO RENEW FIGHT?
Rumors Of Another Sugar War Be.
tween the Trust and the ArbuckIes.

New York Nov. 11.-Prce reduc-
tions in refined sugar caused rumors
to circulate in the trade today of a
renewal Of the old fight between the
American Sugar Refining Co. and
Arbuckle Bros. These reports have
been based on the scaling down of the
margin between raw and refined
sugar, which has been in progress of
late. The normal margin between raw
sugar and refined is about 80 cents
a hundred pounds. The gradual re-
duction which has been in progress
has brought the difference down to
73 cents.
This amount, according to trade es-
Inmates, is little more than the cost
OF refining, and cuts down usual
profits by about two-thirds. 1t
was declared in circles supposedly
well informed, however that the
ducing prices was due to growing
competition for business and it was
in no sense a bitter war such as was
waged before. 1t was also said that
the agreement reached some years ago
between the late President Havemeyer
and Arbuckle Bros. had terminated,
and that the latter declined to renew
it.
This understanding was reached
about four years ago and resulted in
closing the breach between the two
concerns and until month ago they
had been acting in harmony.
