Hale and Hearty at 81
From a helpless invalid, owing to
weakened, rundown condition of the
system, to a vigorous man of 81
years of age, is the experience that
Mr.. VIM. Fl. Haines, a Grand Army
Veteran, has passed through during
the last few years, owing to the
use of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
as his only medicine.

In writing to a friend he said:
To-day l am strong and vigorous for
a man of my age, 81 years, my pres
ent physical condition being vastly
different from what it was few
years ago, thanks to Duffy's Pure
Malt rWhiskey. I was almost a help

cine, had kidney trouble and frequent
dizzy spells, no appetite and my legs

RAILROAD MEASURE
PASSES THE SENATE
La Toilette Warns Conferees
They Must Act in Good Faith
in Deliberations.

Washington, June 1.-THE Senate
passed the administration railroad bill
at 9:55 o'clock last night. 1t had been
under consideration for more than IL
weeks and practically no other business
except appropriation bills was consid-
cred In the long period. Only IL votes,
all of these by democrats, were re-
corded against the bill, Fifty votes
were cost for 1t.
The practical unanimity with which
the measure was passed was due to
the radical changes made in the meas
ure from the form in which 1t was
drafted by Attorney General Wicker
sham following numerous conferences
at the White House on the subject Of
amending Interstate Commerce laws.
All of the insurgents who opposed
many features Of the original bill voted
for 1t last night.
Through the eliminating of pooling
and merger sections and by reason Of
the adoption Of many amendments in
the interest of shippers, the progressive
republicans claim to have won a signal
victory and most Of the democrats ex-
pressed themselves as favorable to a
large portion Of the measure.
Had 1t not been for the retention Of
the sections to create a court Of COM
merce it Is likely the vote for the bill
would have been unanimous.
Debate ceased at 9:55 D. m. when
Senator Elkins, chairman Of the Inter-
state Commerce committee, moved to
take up the bill which was passed by
the House, and after striking out the
body of that measure, to substitute the
matter agreed upon by the Senate. In
that form the bill was voted upon with
the result that 1t was passed by a vote
of 80 to IL.
No republicans voted against the bill
and six democrats voted for 1t. They
were Senators Chamberlain, Clay,
Gore, Paynter, Simmons and Stone.
The democrats recorded against 1t
were Senator'S Bacon, Fletcher Frazier,
Hughes, Money, Newlands, Percy, Pur-
cell, Rayncr, Shively, Smith, of Mary
land and Smith, Of South Carolina.
Just before the voting began Senator
LaFollette, one of the insurgent re-
publican leaders, served notice upon the
Senate that unless the Senate confer
ees made a determined fight for reten-
ton Of amendments procured by pro-
gressives and democrats 1t could not
hope to approve the conference report.
Speeches In explanation of their votes
were made by Senators Bacon, LaFol-
lette, Dolliver, Paynter, Clay, Simmons
and Gore, and brief remarks were made
by others.
The new law will take effect 60 days
from the date approved by the presi-
dent.

REGULARS WIN IN THE
PENNSYLVANIA FIGHT

Philadelphia, June 8.--Returns Of the
primary elections held by all parties
throughout the state Saturday show
that the republican organization has
succeeded in nominating nearly all OF
it's slated candidates and in many in
stances succeeded also in having them

in the republican party's congressional
slate was in Schuylkill county, where
the present congressman, Alfred d.
Garner, supporter of Speaker Can
non, was defeated by r. d. Heaton on
an insurgent platform.
The seven present democratic con-
gressmen from this state were all re-
nominated by their party, Lewis Emery,
jr., who was the Independent fusion
candidate for governor at the last gu
bernatorial election, was defeated for
the republican congressional nominal
ton in the Twenty-first district by
Charles e. Patton. the candidate Of the
regular wing of the party.

BRADSTREET AND DUN
REPORT ON BUSINESS
They Declare That Freight Rate
Injunction Has Had Bad Eff
feet on Trade.

New York, June 7.-Bradstreets Sat,
urday said:
Trade advices are irregular, varying
somewhat with the sections or lines
reporting, but with quietness the pre-
vailing feature. In the northern half Of
the country unseasonably cool weather
has been bar to expansion in retail
trade, which at many cities is classed
as disappointing. At these centers re-
order business is light and jobbers'
operations are consequently restricted.
Probably the best reports as to trade
come from the northwest and the Pa
cific coast, while the Atlantic coast re-
ports are Of current retail trade being
unsatisfactory.
AS the week advanced action by the
government against higher railroad
freight rates resulted in rumors of sus-
pension Of improvement work by rail-
roads, some Of which were, however,
denied. These reports injected an ad-
ditional element Of uncertainty into the
industrial situation.
There Is more activity in iron, but
largely at the expense Of prices. Wool
Is weak and lower on liquidation Of old
stocks and unsatisfactory reports from
the dry goods markets. Cotton goods
still feel the effects Of contrast Of high
present prices, with probably lower flu
ture quotations for raw material. The
leather and shoe trades are quiet. Build
ing is active, but May totals will prob
ably fall behind April.
r. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade today says:
The gradually improving temper of
large business during the last two
weeks has been checked by the irritat-
ing contest over railroad rates. The
effect Of this upon the trade situation
cannot yet be measured. Sharp COM
petition in the pig iron markets has re-
suited In further price recessions. This
weakness Is general In practically all
directions. and some producers who had
been unwilling to lower quotations are
not meeting the views of consumers. In
the Chicago disIict basic and MALE
able iron are most active, sales of
about $4,000 tons being reported, while a
liberal tonnage has been taken at Buff
falo at declines Of from rs to 80 cents
per ton. Some furnaces, however, re-
fuse to accept orders at the current
level, and in the Pittsburg market dull
ness Is again apparent.

GREAT HORSE SHOW
OPENED IN LONDON
Entries at Event Are Fewer
Than Usual, but Society
Turns Out in Force.

London, June 3.,The International
Horse Show opened at the Olympia to-
day 1t will continue through 10 days.
Although lacking the royal patronage
to which 1t has owned so much In the
past, the annual exhibition has been
anticipated with peculiar interest by
society and horsemen as one Of the few
events of a season that has been robbed
of the usual gaiety because Of the
mourning for the late king.
The opening was without ceremony,
but a large crowd was on hand to see
the wonderfully decorated hall, which
is rare spectacle IN itself, and the
horses housed In sta lis lined with vari-
Gus colored cloths anu embelished with
the prizes won at former shows
The entries from abroad are fewer
than formerly. The Italian horsemen
who have taken such a prominent part
In the jumping contests heretofore with
held their entries this year, insisting
that to be truly international the ex-
hibitions should be held successfully
in the different capitals.
The Americans too, have not sent
as many horses as they did last year
but they are well represented.

SOCIALISM SCORED
BY PRESIDENT TAFT

Jackson, Mich, June s.--President
Taft Saturday proclaimed socialism as
the great problem that confronts the
American people, the issue that Is soon
70 come and must be skillfully met BY
it's history, he declared, the republican
party had shown itself capable of deal
ng with great questions effectively and
wisely, and he predicted that the
American people must soon determine
whether 1t shall trust the same party
with the solution Of that problem than
which we have had no greater in the
history of the country"
President Taft spoke with great ear
nestness, and his remarks, coming as a
reiteration of a brief reference to So
cialism in his speech at Ada, Ohio,
seemed deeply to impress his hearers.
BY many his words were taken as
framing an issue for the coming cam
paign.
The president disclaimed any purpose
of making q partisan address, but the
occasion of his visit here was the I'M
yelling of a bronze tablet commence
rating the organization of the repub-
lican party under the oaks" in 1854,
and he could not refrain from COM
parison Of the party with it's oppo-
nents, which was not altogether favor
able to its opponents. He also declared
that popular government must be a
government of parties, and in this con
nection there was just passing hit at
insurgency. The president declared
that unless individuals are willing to
sink minor considerations to the will of
the majority in party, there would
come a rule by groups.
I'm that event." he added, "the Lord
only knows what your government
would be and what it would accom-
plish"

REVOLUTION NOW
lMoEMDS IN CHINA

Pekin. June Son Wednesday a for
maj demand will be made on the throne
Tor the Immediate convocation Of a ma
tio~-' parliament. The authors of the
exaction to be attempted are the dele
gates to the provincial assemblies who
nave the support of organizations of
merchants.
The recently issued imperial decree
constituting the provincial assemblies
set forth that the way was being paved
Tor general legislative body to be
summoned nine years after the first
meeting of the assemblies.
Today delegates to the provincial as
semblies are gathering here with the
avowed purpose of exacting the issu-
ance of an imperial decree summoning
Q national parliament forthwith. The
delegates have determined not to leave
the capital until their memorial is
granted. Eight of their number are
pledged to suicide In the event that
Prince Chun, the regent, decides to adj
here to his original program. The
merchants are furthering the aims of
the delegates by refusing to pay the
stamp tax. The presentation Of the
memorial is not Xix ely to call forth an
early response On the contrary, it is
expected that Prince Chur will delay
his reply as long as possible.
1t Is learned from the leaders Of the
movement that they do not intend to
use drastic measures because Of the
fear that an anti-dynastic revolution
would only serve to bring the armies of
foreign powers into China.
Palace spies are watching delegates
who have arrived here from the Chi
nese colonies in Australia, the Philip
pines and elsewhere, and who are be-
lieved to represent the revolutionary
element among the Chinese abroad.
