SWOPE MYSTERY
Large Quantities Of strychnine Have
Been Found in Stomach Of Two
Members Of That Family.
(By Associated PreSS.)

Kansas City, Feb. -Strychnine
in far greater quantities than is usual
ly administered in medicinal doses
has been found in the stomach and
liver of Chrisman Swope, and in the
contents of the stomach of Miss Mar
garet Swope, according to special
dispatch received here from Chicago.
This information was given out by an
assistant in the Rush Medical college
laboratory. 1t was there that DR..
Walter s. Haines and DR.. Ludwig
Hektoen and DR.. Victor Vaughn
worked on the Swope mystery. In
the absence Of the three doctors, who
are here testifying before a grand jury
that is investigating the case, the
assistant revealed the story Of the
findings of the scientists in the two
cases upon which no official re-
port has yet been made.
1t was in this same laboratory that
the stomach and liver Of Thomas H.
Swope was examined. Though none
of the examinations is finished, the
scientists are convinced that neither
Thomas nor Chrisman Swope would
have died when they did had it not
been for the strychnine.
Strychnine is more apparent in the
viscera of Chrisman Swope than in
that of Thomas H. Swope, according
to the Chicago story, the poison hav
ing been found here in marked quan
titles An examination of the livel
revealed much more strychnine.
In neither the case of Miss Marga
ret or Chrisman Swope, it is said
could the strychnine have been pres
ent as a result Of hypodermic injec
tions for medicinal purposes.
Although impossible Of confirma
tion, 1t is understood the story Of the
laboratory assistant is the same al
that told the grand jury here by tht
physicians today. Doctors Haines
and Hektoen were called early.
By invoking the aid of an old law
Doctors Hektoen, Vaughn and Haine'
escaped giving their dispositions tt
DR.. Hyde's attorneys. As a further
safeguard, they were placed undel
bond to appear before the grand jur!
until dismissed by Prosecutor Conk
ling.
! After the close Of the grand jur!
session tonight they were quietly dis
missed by the prosecutor and returnet
to Chicago.

something very desirable in view OF
the ultra-optisism with which the new
year opened. In all probability with
the approach of spring there will be
decided quickening in all departments
of commercial and industrial activity
The winter has been somewhat severe,
naturally interfering with many lines
of business. Two other factors which
have induced conservatism have been
the high prices of merchandise and
fears of labor troubles. Retailers are
showing a natural disposition not to
stock up with high priced goods and
are conducting their operations on
hand-to-mouth policy. With the pros
poets of demands for higher wages
contractors and others are disposed tc
enter future engagements. These are

GENERAL REVIEW Of
BUSINESS CONDITIONS

duction of reforms may interfere Win
the plans of certain individuals, caus-
ing temporary unsettlement of values;
but in the long run it is going to be
highly beneficial to have our great
bust ness institutions conducted upon
lines that are unquestionable, whether
from the ethical legal or the economic
standpoint For this reason 1t is hard-
ly prudent to anticipate any serious
disaster from the Forthcoming decis-
ions of the Supreme Court. There IS
no doubt but that the men who form
that august body are better eXponents
of the law and better judges Of public
welfare than the managers of some OF
our large industrial corporations, VINO
have often exploited their newly gain
ed powers for purely selfish ends. The
country and investors generally Will
profit if such operations are made in
creasingly difficult. There Is still
some fear regarding the forthcoming
decisions of the Supreme Court on the
Tobacco, Standard Oil and Union Pa
cific cases; but it would create no sur
prise if. even should these be unfav
orable, their effect will have beer
more than discounted. In each IN
stance these organizations will con
tinue to perform their functions as be

The question of high merchandise
prices, however, is still a vexed one
On January there was moderate re-
cession in merchandise values, Brad
streets" figures showing drop OF IT
per cent, due partly to the popular agi-
tation against high costs of food and
partly to the break in cotton. The
true remedy for present high prices is
a general increase of production, espe-
cially of food products and raw mate
rials, of which the supplies generally
are moderate, if not actually deficient.
This country is preeminently in need
of a great increase in agricultural pro-
ducts. Our farmers do not begin to
turn out the product per acre that is
done in Europe. In many cases thelr
product could be doubled upon the
present area by better and more scien
tific systems of agriculture. This Is
the only solution for the present
| problem of cheaper food. In all prob
ability it will solve itself by natura
means. The great profits which farm
ers are making will immensely stimu
late agricultural activity. Doubtless
it will attract to the agricultural class
es higher order of intelligence ant
result in the one necessary thing OF in
creasing the product per acre. BY thi'
method the farmer will not maintain
his present profits, but will at tn
same time considerably enlarge them
meanwhile giving the consumer tn
benefit of larger and cheaper suppl!
of food. Should the weather prov
favorable during the coming seasol
there is every reason to look for
large harvest; the one thing above ev
erything else which the country need
to maintain the present course
prosperity.

CAUSES DEBILITY
HERE ARE FACTS BACKED UP BY
A STRONG GUARANTEE.

Catarrh causes debility. In our
opinion, most people suffering from
general debility have catarrh. Such
cases of debility cannot be COM
pletely cured by medicine not de-
signed to eradicate catarrh. In ev-
cry case where our remedy fails to
give entire satisfaction we will not
charge a cent for the medicine en-
ployed during the trial. Now, sure
ly no one should hesitate to believe
US or to put our claim to practical
test under such conditions. We will
take all the risk; no one else can
lose anything by the transaction.
We make these statements and this
offer because we know and have
time and again proved that Rexall
Mucu-Tone rarely fails to do as we
claim. It is not cure-all prescribed
to cure eevry disease that flesh is
heir to. 1t is intended for one pur-
pose, i. e., to cure catarrh, by assail-
ing the diseased condition in reas-
enable, scientific way, which is to en-
ploy agents that have been found to
have the tonic and Alternative power
to correct faulty metabolism Tissue
change) and to stimulate and help
nature overcome the cause or causes
of catarrh. This being done, appetite
increases, nutrition improves, weight
is gained, comfort of body is attained
and life's work taken up with the zest
natural to the perfectly healthy indi-
vidual.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu'
Tone. Follow directions and take it
regularly and consistently for reas-
enable length of time. Then, if you
are not satisfied, come back and tell
us and the money you paid for the
treatment will be returned without
any argument whatever.

Special to The Neios.
New, York, Feb. 22.-The improve
ment looked for in our previous ad
vices made itself apparent even more
promptly than expected. In place of
the extreme pessimism and uneasi-
ness which has existed for several
weeks, more hopeful and confident
feeling developed. Stocks are resting
on a level below the normal in view
of existing conditions and now find
firmer support than previously In
consequence the bear interest curtail-
ed their operations, and more or less
good buying ensued. The unesiness
attending the political situation ap-
pears to have about run its course;
especially since the discovery that no
funds have been provided to carry out
the publicity features of the Corpora
tion Tax. 1t is now recognized that
most of the reforms for which Presi.
dent Taft stands cannot work injury
in the long run. His attitude regard
ing reasonable publicity for large cor.
porations is sound, and should be sup
ported. There is no more reason why
the great industrial corporations
should not give certain details regard
ing their affairs than the railroads
Publicity regarding their affairs is one
of the chief safeguards against abuse
of the great powers which they pos
sess. Remove the mystery concerning
these large corporations and much o.
the public distrust of them would i'm
mediately vanish. Publicity, by pro
noting the confidence of investors ant
disarming popular clamor, would d.
more toward conservating the legiti
mate interests of stockholders thai
any other single act. Publicity, how
ever is only one of other reforms nee
'sary in the management Of our grea
corporations, and it is folly to assume
that carrying them out is going t
work any injury to the stock market
