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
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of the are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed 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 Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free.

MRS. NOODIL' s
JEWELS PAWNED
PLEDGED BY MAN WHO AN
SWERS DESCRIPTION OF
EASTMAN.
NEW YORK ATTORNEY CLAIMS
DEAD MANS BODY FOR
$500 REWARD.

ST. Michaels, Nd, June 27.-Tell
tale shafts of light continued yester-
day to filter in upon the tragedy in
the lonely bungalow on Broad creek.
AS the tangled skeins Of the story
are picked up one by one, they tend
more and more to dissipate the claim
advanced by Robert Eastman that it
was a woman and not he who killed
Edith May WOodiu.
Yesterday the jewels worn by the
woman at the time Of her disappear
ance, were found in pawn shop IN
Baltimore, placed there last Tuesday
by a man who answered fully the de-
scriptiOn of Eastman. The man Sc
cured $500 on two diamond rings
with an oriental pearl brooch. Two
hundred dollars which Mrs. Woodill
had in her possession when she left
her foster fathers home last week, Is
missing. Eastman repaid the loan
last week of 5000, and when he re
turned here from Baltimore Tuesday
night seemed pIentifully supplied with
money.
The letter of the suicide in which
he gave his wife his version Of the
killing Of Mrs. Woodiu by a jealous
woman, was made public yesterday
and deeply impressed many who read
its circumstantial account Of the
tragedy for which the writer claimed
ne was in no way responsible. With
all this disclaimer Of responsibility,
however, Eastman admitted in the let
ter that he did not dare to take the
chance of a trial, and had decided to
draw the curtains forever" A
searching investigation by the author
tiles fails to substantiate any Of
Eastman's claims.
William Sutton, who it was said
had heard a party of men and women
merrymaking in the bungalow Sunday
night, declared yesterday it was late
Saturday when he went to visit East
mans place, and that he heard only
the voices of one man and one WO-
man in the bungalow that the voice
of the woman was that of Mrs. Wood
i'll. Sutton did not make his presence
outside of the house known and went
away.
When the cabin was searched fol-
lowing the discovery of the body,
places at the table were set for two.
Plates, cups and saucers were there,
and unused. A. S. Rosenthal of New
York, an attorney who represented
Eastman when he was charged with
grand larceny, and who secured for
him the bail which he forfeited by
flight, arrived upon the scene yester-
day and, acting for Mrs. Ida E. Ec-
stein of New York, one of the sure
ties who lost heavily by the forfeit
ure of the bond, demanded custody
of Eastmau's body that they might
make delivery of it to the New York
authorities, by whom a reward Of
$500 had been offered The local
authorities declined to give up the

EMPEROR REFUSES
TO LET BUELON co
INSISTS THAT He CONTINUE AS
HEAD OF GERMAN
FINANCES.

Berlin, June 2S.-A semi-offictal
news agency announces that Chance
Ior Won Buelow during his audience
with tie emperor at Kiel, asked per
mission TO resign. The emperor, how
ever. declined to accede to this re
quest under the present condition. His
majesty pointed out that according to
the unanimous conviction of the fed
Grated governments, Il prompt settle
ment of financial reform was a vital
question both to the internal welfare
and the external position of the en-
pire, and that he could not consider
the chancellOrrs desire to retire un-
til this work had been concluded in a
manner acceptable to all the feder-
ated governments.
Chancellor BuelOws further pans
are not known, but it is not believed
that he intends to dissolve the Reich
stag. He probably will have such
bills passed as the majority in the
house viii approve and then adjourn
the Reichstag until autumn, when
supplementary bills will be presented
The chancellor before he started for
Kial informed the conservatives that
the government would not consider
the committees proposal to tax quo
tatiOns of stocks and bonds the turn
over of large grain mills, or an export
duty OF coal.

MAY
PROCLAIM TARIFF
AMENDMENT TO SENATE MEAS
URE PROVIDES FOR FREE
WOOD PULP.
DUTY ON PRINT PAPER FIVE.
TENTHS OF A CENT a
POUND.

Washington, June 27.-The senate
! yesterday revised its previous motion
/ on the print paper and wood pulp
/ schedule agreeing on amendments re.
! lating both TO pulp and paper in place
OF the amendments hitherto adopted.
The amendments which were yester-
day accepted were those proposed by
Mr.. Brown of Nebraska, in accord
ance with a suggestion made in his
speech on the subject a few days ago.
When, after disposal of the agricul,
tural implements schedule, the senate
reverted to the pulp and paper provi-
siOns, Mr. Aldrich stated that he was
prepared to accept the amendments
which had been proposed by Mr..
Brown The Nebraska senator was
apparently quite as much surprised as
pleased at this turn Of affairs in his
favor.
The Brown amendment for the pulp
provision is a complete substitute Tor
the house paragraph 1t provides Tor
the free admission of mechanically
ground wood pulp, but authorizes the
imposition of a duty Of a twelfth of
a cent per pound, dry weight, upon
the PRONUNCIATION of a proclamation
| by the president declaring any coun-
try or province had unduly discrim-
mated against the United States by
the imposition Of an export duty or
export charge of any kind upon wood
pulp or printing paper exported into
| the United States or has forbidden or
restricted the expectation of any of
these articles directly or Indirectly.
On chemical wood pulp a duty of one
sixth of cent per pound is provided
on the mb,eached article. and one
| fourth of a cent per pound on the
bleached article, and in case of dis
elimination by an exporting country,
these duties are to, be doubled.
The amendment to the paper para
graph consists of a prOviso authoriz-
ing the doubling of the duty on news
paper print paper in case of discrim-
nation. This paper is valued at three
cents per pound or less. and accord
, ing to the terms OF the house bill is
made dutiable at the rate of five
tenths of a cent per pound.
Explaining his amendments, Mr..
Brown said that under them wood
pulp would be admitted free, but that
in case of discrimination on the part
Of Canada or any of its provinces, etc.
upon proclamation of the president a
duty could be applied. This provision
reversed the order of procedure as
provided by the original committee
amendment.
Mr.. Clapp expressed disapprOval of
any provision allowing the president
to place a duty on wood pulp or pa
per and said he would discuss the mat
ter when the bill reached the senate
in a parliamentary sense.
After very little further discussion,
both amendments were agreed to
without division.
