SUFFERING FROM ECZEMA
New Discovery Has RetolutiOnized the
Treatment of Skin Diseases

Nothing in the history of medicine
has ever approached the success of the
marvellous skin remedy known as pos
lam. which, it is safe to say, has cured
more cases of eczema and skin diseases
than any remedy ever offered for these
ills.
The success of poslam is not at all
surprising when il is considered that
even a very small quantity applied to
the skin stops itching Immediately and
proceeds to heal at once. The very
worst cases of eczema. as well as acne.
herpes, letter, piles. salt rheum. rash.
crusted humors, scaly scalp and every
form of itch yield to it readily Blem-
lShes such as ptmples. red noses. muddy
and inhamed skin disappear almost i'm
mediately when poslam is applied the
complexion being cleared over night.
All druggists, including the owl
Drug Co San Francisco stores. keep the
80 cent size (for minor troubles) as
well as the regular 81 jar.
But no one is even asked to purchase
poslam without first obtaining a sam

SHORT LINE MAKES
TRAIN TIME LONGER
Union Pacific Manager Admits
Correctness of Statement,
but Fails to Explain

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-William l..
Park general manager of the Union
Pacific railway. admitted on the witness
stand today that he could not explain
why the schedule of the Overland Linn
tied between Omaha and Ogden had
been shortened to 80 hours and 10 min
utes last Sunday, as against 33 hours,
which had been maintained since 1907.
Park was testifying at continua-
ton of the governments suit to dis
solve the Union Pacific Southern Pa
cifc merger.
The governments attorneys have
sought to show that slower time has
resulted from the merger, in that COM
petition was destroyed and the neces-
sity for fast competitive schedules OBJ
Waited. Witnesses for the road, on the
other hand, have asserted that physical
conditions were responsible for the re-
ducton of speed.
TWO SCHEDULES CHANGED
Vice President Kruttschnitt was
questioned along this line last week
and federal lawyers took Park over the
same ground today. Then he admitted
that the recent change in the Overland
Limited schedule had been made, as
well as in the schedule of fast Union
Pacific mail train.
Between 1900 and 1907 the Overland's s
time from Omaha TO Ogden was be-
tween 80 and 81 hours. This jumped to
3S hours in 1907, and to this 80 min
utes was added last year
SLOW ORDERS RECEIVED
Can you explain why the time of
your crack train increased when your
line had been shortened up 80 miles
and curvatures and grades improved"
asked the government counsel
Ever since 1900 we have had slow
orders, varying from one to six hours,
largely on account of the building of
hew bridges, ballasting work, ETC.,
which made it absolutely necessary to
lose time The shortening of the line
was only 40 miles on the Union Pacific
proper" said Park.
William David Lincoln, car service
agent of the Union Pacific at Omaha,
and James p. O'Brien of Portland, Ore.
vice president of the Oregon railroad
and navigation company, testified to-
day.

JAPAN SAD OVER
SHAW'S WAR TALK
Tokyo Papers Report Revival of
Exclusion Movement in
San Francisco
Editors Repudiate Suggestion
That Nippon Seeks Control
of Pacific Ocean

TOKYO. Feb. 24.-SpeciaI dispatches
to the newspapers from the United
States report a recrudescence of the
antiJapanese movement at San Fran
cisco. Today all the local papers feat
ured the speech OF Leslie NJ. Shaw, for
mer secretary of the treasury. in which
he is reported a having said that war
between the United States and Japan
was inevitable
The speech has caused gloomy i'm
preston among Japanese and foreign
ers alike. The specials quoted Major
General ]. Franklin Bell as having said
that war between the two countries
was likely to break out at any moment.
The press and the public are unable to
understand the reasons for these vio-
lent utterances.
The Asahi Shimbun and the Jill
Shimpo print long specials from San
Francisco quoting Shaw's speech at
Morristown. n. j.. last Tuesday. Com
menting on this speech, the papers re-
mark the coincidence in the receipt of
these dispatches al a time when prepa-
rations are being made at Yokohama
and in this city for a reception of the
700 American aboard the steamer Cleve-
land, which is due at Yokohama to-
morrow morning.
Editorially the papers repudiate the
suggestion that Japan is seeking con-
troll of the Pacific and declare that
American competition will be welcomed.
Speeches Misrepresented
WASHINGTON. Feb. 24-"There is
not the slightest likelihood of any
trouble with Japan any more than with
any other country with which we have
excellent relations of friendship.
This statement was made today by
Secretary Knox, who expressed great
surprise that notice should be taken
of trif1es. Knox continued:
"Shaw's speech was obviously moth
ing but an argument for ship subsidy,
and what General Bell said made no
reference TO trouble in the far east,
and was quite evidently an ordinary ar
gument for increased appropriations for
the army.
'As for the San Francisco report,
everybody knows that our immigration
arrangement with Japan is working
entirely satisfactorily

clared in the presence of Secretary Of

Paine, Weber & Co.'S Gossip

The directors of the Raven company
nave called an assessment of ten
cents per share, payable on or before
August 18th. The books will be clos
ed July 16 and will remain closed until
August is after which date no trans
fcrs of stock will be made on which
assessments are not paid.
The official returns on the mill run
for the month of June shows 2,lS9
tons of rock were treated by Lake with
a recovery of 33 pounds of mineral to
the ton. This would equal an estimat-
ed return of 81 pounds of refined cop
per to the ton.
The output of the Lake Superior
mines for June was 1S,S76,72S pounds
al fine copper. compared with 1901
DAG pounds during May, decrease of
2OO, sos pounds or one percent d.
At the Lake Copper company prop
erty the plat is being cut at the sew
q enth level of the shaft and has expos
ed the new foot wall lode for its full
width. There is no showing of COM
merciaI copper in the new lode at this
point.
A private despatch from the Live
oak property says that drill hole No.
has entered chalcocite at 21O feet
Butte and Balakalava is outputting
about 200 tons of ore per day and more
than earning the 81 dividends without
pushing production. The results from
the property are exceeding expecta-
tons of inside interests. Latest re-
turns from the smeter give S.45 per
cent copper and u ounces of silver
for a shipment of ears, and 9.34 pei
cent copper and 12hounces of silver
for another shipment of the same
amount.
Rumors have been circulated dur
ing the past few days that the divi-
dcnd on Amalgamated would be either
cut or passed at the next meeting of
the directors as n result Of the low
prices prevailing for copper metal
The board will meet on July 21st and
according to usually well informed in
terests, the usual distribution of 90
cents will be ordered. 1t is pointed
out that not only is the company well
fortified with cash but that it's cost
of producing copper is now close to
cents per pound, which at the present
market price of 12lA cents for the met
al shows a fair margin of profits.

Gay & StursiS' Gossip

Boston-The News Bureau says: II
is the apparent decision of the new
management of the Lake Copper Co..
to discontinue the milling of Lake rock
on the ground that there is no money
i'm il, but rather loss. No criticism
can attach to such a course. ON the
other hand 1t is quite conceivable that
very erroneous impressions of the
real commercial value of the Lake
property-Wheu opened to permit of
mining on large scale-would be
obtained by the publication of milling
returns from only 100 tons of rock per
day.
OF course n certain stock market ad-
vantage might also accrue to those
having prior knowledge of monthly
mill results, and IL is the opinion OF
the new management to eliminate even
the possibility of criticism arising
from such a situation. II is interest
ing to- recall that the directorate as
now constituted comprises the repre-
sentatives OF three very active stock
exchange houses, Paine Weber eco,
Hayden Stone e. Co., and Fitzgerald
Hubbard q Co.
1t is not impossible that the new
management may not approve of the
mining methods pursued by the FORM
CT management, but If they have any
criticisms to make they are keeping
their opinions TO themselves. 1t can
be said. however, that there is no ev-
idence that the former directors used
their knowledge of the mill returns for
stock market purposes. These re-
turns have been received by the Bos-
