HER BUNKERS EMPTY
AND CREW LAID UP
Steamer and Mems Lives Saved
by HerOism Of Engineer

Newburyport, Mass, Feb. a.
The tramp steamer Canuso, her bunk
ers empty and fires drawn, with
twelve of her crew victims Of scarlet
fever, was picked up in a helpless
condition off Cape Ann late last night
by the revenue cutter Gresham.
The Gresham decided not to board
her on account of the scarlet fever,
and stood by until daylight, when tugs
were sent to tow the disabled vessel
to Boston.
The finding of the Canuso, which
was in helpless condition, is due to
the bravery of Captain Eaton of Lit
tie Deer Isle, Me-, the engineer who
was put ashore at Salisbury Beach to
seek assistance for his vessel.
Though faint and weary, from loss
of sleep and want of proper food,
Eaton made the terrible journey from
Salisbury over the almost impossible
roads to Newburyport and told his
tale to the authorities.
The Canuso left Cuba for New York
six wees ago with cargo of sugar and
had drifted to Cape Ann after her
bunkers had become empty during
terrible weather.

Millions Of
Lives Lost
An Awful Toll Collected by Con-
sumption. Many Unnecessary
Deaths from this Disease.

If people could only understand
that systemic catarrh is an internal
disease that external applications
cannot cure, they would not need
to be warned so often about this
malady, which, when neglected,
paves the way oftentimes for con-
sumption, at the cost Of millions of
lives every year. Yet catarrh may
be cured, if the right treatment is
employed.
Catarrh is caused by general
diseased state of the system which
leads commonly to annoying and
perhaps serious local conditions,
which may prove a fertile breeding
ground for germs of consumption.
External remedies give but tenn
porary ease.
The only way to successfully
treat catarrh is by employing a
medicine which is absorbed and
carried by the blood to all parts of
the system, so that the mucous
membrane or internal lining of the
body is toned up and made capable
of resisting the infection of con-
sumption and other diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made
catarrh a speciality, and whose
record was a patient restored to
health in every case where his treat
ment was followed as prescribed.
That remedy is ReXall Mucu-Tone.
We are so positive that it will
completely overcome catarrh in
all it's vatious forms, whether acute
or chronic, that we promise to
return every penny paid us for the
medicine in every case where it
fails or for any,reason does not sat
isfy the user. &
We want you to try ReXall Nucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
you live, and you do not contract
any obligation or risk when you
try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our guar
antee. We have ReXall Mucu-
Tone in two sizes, so cents and
81 90. Very often the taking of
one 50-cent bottle is sufficient to
make a marked impression upon
the case. Of course in chronic
cases a longer treatmentSis neces-
sary. The average in such instances
is three $1.00 bottles. Remember
you can obtain Rexall Remedies
in Bradford only at our store,

TILLMAN STILL GAINING
Physicians Issue an Optimistic Report
Concerning His Illness

Washington, Feb. 22.-After an
other consultation Monday Drs. Bah
cock and Pickford issued the follow
ing bulletin in regard to Senator Till
mans condition:
Senator Tillman continues to i'm
prove. The paralysis is much less
than yesterday His mind is very
clear and memory excellent. Outlook
more encouraging than at any time
since his present illness began"
AS result of this Improvement
Tilmans physicians and family are
much more optimistic as to the ulti-
mate outcome of his illness. The
paralysis has abated to such a degree
that the senator is able to move his
right arm and leg. The most en-
couraging feature of his improve
ment, however, is the return of the

SEVERELY Played
Morgan Also Castigated In a
Sizzling Editorial

Boston, Feb SOCIALISM or in

forced upon Massachusetts by ]. Pier
pont Morgan through the New York,
New Haven and Hartford railroad,
according to an editorial which ap-
pears in today's issue Of The Com
mercial Bulletin. The article Is
written by Ex-Governor Guild.
The editorial is the bitterest attack
on Morgan ever published in paper
in this city. "A beefy, red-faced,
thick-necked, financial bully, drunk
with wealth and power" is one of the
phrases used to characterize the New
York financier, and President Mel
len and Vice President Byrnes are
called hired megaphones.
The action of the New Haven road,
if granted its demands, recently made
through Mellen and Byrnes, will

The executive committee of the
Central Labor union pledged both
moral and financial support to the
striking car men. They also decided
to call a sympathetic strike of every
union man In the city in case the au-
thorities put in effect their threat to
operate the cars with policemen and
firemen.
At IL o'clock Sunday morning the
transit company officials announced
that cars were running on their regu-
lar Sunday schedule. Shortly after
ward riots were reported from scores
of widely separated localities.
At Twenty-six and Wharton streets
mob of boys drove the conductor and
motorman from their posts, and after
the four women passengers had left
the car set it on fire with waste taken
from a nearby freight car. The fol-
lowing car was also stopped and was
being set on fire when a detachment of
police and a chemical engine reached
the scene.
In the usually quiet residential sec
ton of West Philadelphia mobs were
formed which for a time baffled the
police. Iron bars and stones were
piled on the tracks and several cars
we're wrecked. Mounted police we're
powerless to dispense the mobs here
and a fire hose was finally brought
into play.
Contradictory claims are made by
the opposing forces as to the number
of men on strike. The leaders of the
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric Railway Employees say
that 5000 of the 1000 employees of the
transit company have left their cars.
The officials of the company say that
5000 of their employees are loyal.
The transit officials say that 297 cars
were wrecked. two were completely
burned and one partially burned by
the mobs Sunday. Two thousand six
hundred and eight car windows we're
smashed. The officials of the COM
pany charge that the rioting was di-
rected by union men, and was the re-
suit of plot TO intimidate the loyal
motormen and conductors.
Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-Police Of
ficials took the initiative last night in
the struggle going on between the
striking car men and the officials
of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
company, when they arrested Clar-
ence o. Pratt. national organizer of

warrant charging him with "conspir-

While the damage done to the prop
erty of the rapid transit company

Recent experience has disclosed
serious difficulties due to recurring
differences of strong opinion between
the two branches of the legislature.
Proposals will be laid before you with
all convenient speed, to define the re-
lations between the houses OF parlia-
ment so as to secure the undivided au-
thority of the house of commons over
finance and its predominance in legis-
latfon. These measures, in the opin-
ion of my advisers, should provide
that this house should be so consti-
tuted and empowered as to exercise
impartially, in regard to proposed
legislation. the functions of initiation,
revision and subject to proper safe
guards of delay"
The kings speech proved to be un-
usually brief and made plain that the
work of the session would be confined
to the matter of finance and the ques-
ton of the house of lords. The finan-
cial estimates for the coming year
were next set forth. These" he
said, have been framed with the ut
most desire for economy, but the re-
quirements for the naval defense of
the empire made it necessary to pro-
pose a substantial increase in the cost
of my navy"
Regarding the fact that the ex-
penditures authorized by the last par
lament were being incurred and met
nv 10 t1r,a IsNy.,.
ing, the speech declared: Arrange
ments must be made at the earliest
possible moment to deal with the
financial situation thus created. This
was taken as confirmation of Premier
Asquith's avowed determination to
regularize the present conduct of
financial affairs before attacking the
house of lords. The most important
procurement was reserved for the
end of the speech, which closed with
the paragraph upon the relations be-
tween the two house as given above.
The reading Of the speech occupied
only four minutes, and at it's close the
session was suspended for two hours.
During the intermission the speech
was the subject of keen analysis in
the Hobbies Of both houses. 1t was re-
garded as evident that the cabinet had
decided against the extremists who
desire the abolition of the upper cham
Der, and are anxious only to deprive
the house of lords of the power of
veto.
The paragraph of the speech refer
ring to the house of lords is. how
ever, admitted to have been OBJ
scurely worded and parliamentarians
are awaiting with great interest AS
Quith's Interpretation The rather
modern expression lin the opinion of
my advisers, which the king seemed
to emphasize especially. is a novelty
in a speech from the throne.
The expression in the opinion of
my advisers" is accepted as having
been inserted in the speech by the
king with the palpable object Of dis
assOciating him from the views ex-
pressed on behalf Of the government.
This deduction has added piquancy to
the situation.
The first business to be transacted
in the house OF commons was the
adoption. without revision, of a motion
prohibiting peers from participating in
elections.
