uric acid, but cure the kidneys and

prove it.

Plans for President Taft's trauscon-

Der of government officials in and out
of the White House. Until congress
passes the bill appropr!ating S25 1000
of theeexecutive's travelling expenses
for the first fiscal year, however. these
plans will only be of tentative ma.
ture; indeed, 1t may be said that until
the lawmakers come across" with the
money, the President will not even
admit that he will make the trip at
all.
I'm not going to pay my own ex-
penses out there, that's certain" he
repeats, and even the congressman
who are planning to vote against the
bill whenever It makes its appearance
say they do not blame him for taking
that stand. He believes the people Of
the country Will be the gamers by his
journey, and he sees no. valid reason
why he should foot the travel bill per.
sonally.
Even should the s25,NoO appropria-
ton be made for Mr.. Taft he may not
take the journey. Mrs. Taft has been
looking forward to the west, IN tour
with great deal OF pleasure. and the
President declares that II she cannot
share In the excursion he will not go
himself, even If he were assured that
she stood in no danger o. a return of
her present nervous trouble during his
absence. She is now rapidly recover.
ing from the recent attack, however
and her physician, Naval Surgeon De
Lancy, is confident that by the time
the President expects to leave Bever-
", Mass, for the west she will have
been restored to perfect health. y

STEAMER RAMS LOOK.

A dispatch from Saulte Ste. Marie,
Mich, says that with all the weight OF
Lake Superior behind 1t, an uDgoverned
torrent Of water was rushing last night
hr ugh the "a, 900, 900 Canadian canal,
built to carry vessels around the impss-
sable rapids Of the Saint MaryS river.
The entire fall Of approximately 20 feet
is concentrated ia the lock, which was
wrecked yesterday when the steamer
Perry G.. Walker, of the Gilchrist fleet,
rammed her bow through the lower
gate.
The upper gates we're open when the
Walker crushed open the lower gates,
and the tremendous power of the rapids
was given instant play. The steamer
Assinibois, a big Canadian Pacific pas
seuger liner, lying within the lock cham
her, was torn away from her moorings.
Riding on the crest of the food, she
TANNED the Walker from her path, the
Assinibois's port anchor ripping hole
in the Walkers side.
The liners engine crew put on full
steam ahead In desperate endeavor to
give the big vessel steersgeway, and
with her wheelmen battling to overcome
the swirling currents, the Assinibols
swept into the open reaches of the river
below. The Assiniboia's cargo shifted,
and this gave her considerable list, and
several plates on her port side forward
of amidships we're loosened.
The Walker was whirled around sew.
eral times and finally landed on q ahoal
out of the channel.
The steamer Crescent City, which was
inst entering The locks, was swept down
the stream like feather. She overlook
the Assiniboia and struck the latter two
glanciug blows after having great hole
torn in her side as she swept past the
broken lower gate. Tugs caught her
aud towed her to the American side
where she settled to the bottom. Both the
under gates of the lock aud one lower
gate were wrenched away. The other
lower gate still hangs to its fsstenings,
twisted and broken.
The loss to the Canadian government
will probably reach $3.50, 600, and the
damsge to the Crescent City is estimated
at 800, 600. The damsge to the steam
ers Walker aud AsSinibOia was COM
psratively light.
Capt. Mosher, OF the steamer Walker,
declares that the accident Was caused by
bis engineer making mistake and
throwing bis lever to ''full speed ahead, .
on the captains signal to "back up"
A power launch loaded with people
lust about to enter the lock when the
disaster occurred narrowly escaped being
caught in the current and whirled to de-
struCtion.
