GIVES RECEIPT FOR
MORE THAN BILLION
Formal Transfer of Government
Funds Worlds Largest FL
nancial Transaction.

WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-What is
said to be the largest financial trans
action In the world s history occurred
here today. 1t consisted in the giving
of a receipt for 81 ,260, 134, ,946.sS 2.3 by
Lee McClung, the treasurer Of the Unit.
ed States, to Charles f. Treat, who re-
tired from that Office October 81, and
is an acknowledgment of the money
and securities in the Office as of No
vember !. The practice is customary
with the change of treasurers.
Since November. treasury employees
have been counting the cash and Sc
curities in the office under the super
vision OF a committee, which has GER
tilted to the new treasurer that the mon"
ey he receipted for was on hand at the
time he took Office. The count this year
was completed in two months less than
ever before.
It shows less actual cash in hand
than four years ago when Mr.. Treat as
sumed the office, but this was more
than offset by the large increase in
bonds deposited to secure circulation.
The receipt was signed in triplicate.
Mr., McClung taking one copy, Mr..
Treat getting another, and the third be-
ing the property of the government.

For many years DR.. Hartman has in
sisted upon calling grip "epidemic
catarrb,'' He contends that grip diff
fers in no way from acute catarrh ex-
cept that it is epidemic in form
He asserts that any internal remedy
that will relieve catarrh will also re-
lieve the grip, as grip is phase of
catarrh.
Wishing to ascertain the exact facts
concerning the grip bacilli, our report
er interviewed DR.. Hartman, who is
considered an authority on the nature
and treatment of grip.
During the course Of this interview
DR., Hartman said There is no use try
ing to avoid the grip bacilh.
They are everywhere. They float in
the air. They swarm in the drinking
water They cling to everything we
eat or wear. Avoidance Is impossible.
The only thing to be done is to so
fortify the system that their invasion
shall be harmless,
If the mucous membranes lining the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes and stom-
ach are kept perfectly free from ca
tarrh, the grip bacllli cannot easily
enter the system.
A healthy, clean mucous membrane
protects the internal organs the same as
the skin protects the surface of the
body.

BERLIN, Germany, Jan. s.-All the
heavy oratorical artillery which the
leaders of the German Liberal, Radical
and Socialist parties can muster has
been brought TO bear upon Chancellor
Bethmann Hollweg in an effort to make
him change Prussia's antiquated three
class elective system. The question now
comes up in the diet, which opens next
Tuesday. At that time the chancellor
will probably make statement on the
subject,
About a year ago the kaiser, through
Prince Buelow, virtually promised a
partial reform of the election law,
which practically disfranchises the mass
of voters and concentrates power IN the
wealth-owning classes. The public, is
now demanding that the promise be full
filed. Herr Bethmann- -Hollweg s posi-
ton, owing to the opposition of the
and it is thought unlikely that he Will
propose any radical reform.
The question, while affecting Prus-
sia especially, is of the deepest I'M
portance to all Germany, owing TO the
preponderance Of influence of Prns-
sia in the affairs of the empire.
