New Method Devised for Drying
Smokeless Powder.

A new system Of drying s,nokeless
powder is being developed by the ord
nance officers of the army with a view
to shortening the time now required for
that purpose. Although the experiments
are not finished the officers feel con-
vinced that the time required for dry
ing powder for the twelve-inch guns can
be reduced from four months to two
months. After trying an oil-drying pro-
cess 1t was demonstrated that the en-
ployment Of air of a high temperature
gave quicker results
Under the system prevailing in govern
ment arsenals, smokeless powder is dried
in air Of low temperature. 1t is not
proposed to change that system during
times Of peace. but Gen. Crozier and his
assistants desire to develop a quicker
method of manufacturing powder for use
in the event Of war. 1t is regarded as
highly important to the army that ii
should be able in time OF war to turn
out powder with greater rapidity than is
possible under the existing system.

Says President Taft Exceeds His
Authority
RIGHT TO MAKE AGREEMENT
Is Doubted by Speaker, Who Declares
Functions of Senate Are Usurped
Farmers Deprived of Con-
stitutional Projections.

Washington, June Ex-senator Nelson
of Minnesota spoke at length yester
day in opposition to Canadian reciproc'
lity. He contended the president had nc
authority to undertake negotiations
with Canada, and charged that the chief
executive had 4lsurped the treaty maxi
ing power of the Senate Disaster for
the farmers of the country, he declared
would follow the passage OF the reci-
procity bill. Referring to that section
of the constitution authorizing the presi-
dent to make treaties only when two
thirds of the Senate concurs, Mr. Mel
son said
"In the case under consideration the
president has, through the state depart
ment, made an agreement or treaty
which he seeks to ratify not by a two
thirds vote Of the Senate, but by a mere
majority of the Senate, supplanted by a
mere majority OF the House OF Repre-
sentatiyes, or by a mere legislative act.
And, in this way, he evades the treaty
making provision OF the constitution. If
this is proper in the case of commercial
trade agreements, why cannot the same
course be pursued in respect to other
subjects, and thus practically transfer
the treaty making power from the presi-
dent and the Senate TO the president and
Congressl The trade agreement submit
ted by the president in this instance
for ratification by Congress and not by
the Senate alone has, as far as ! have
been able to ascertain, no precedent in
our constitutional history or the his
tory of the executive department"
Insisting that the president had no
authority TO bargain with foreign
country or to promise it that he would
use his influence to compel Congress to
enact certain legislation" Mr.. Nelson
said; "ft seems to me that the president
is depriving the farmers of this country
of their constitutional protection in a
two-thirds vote of the Senate. This
agreement would not be ratified ii it
were submitted to us for ratification
pursuant to the spirit of the constitu-
ton
Mr. Nelson referred TO the refusal of
the Senate TO approve the proposed Can
adian reciprocity treaty of 1874 He
quoted from the expressions Of Presi-
dents Mckinley and Roosevelt and de-
clared that the action in the present
case did violence to the creed of both.
The farmer. he declared. is being sacri-
feed by the railroads, the manufactu-
ers and other interests who see through
reciprocity larger market for their
wares Admitting that he fully realized
his course did not meet with the approx
al OF the millers, manufacturers and
wholesalers OF ST Paul, Mimi, and Du-
luth, Senator Nelson said he felt his

DEMANDS TRIAL

Senator Pomerene Introduces Reso-
luton to That Effect In the Up
per House.

Washington, june l6.--Crimnal prose-
cution of the officers of the Standard
Oil company and the American Tobacco
company was demanded yesterday by
Senator Pomerene, who addressed the
Senate on his resolution calling on the
attorney general to undertake such legal
action The senators said at the outset
that the Sherman antitrust law was
specific in its authority to press such
suit against conspirators who restrain
trade. He contended that the lawyers
doubts of the meaning Of the statute
were Gin proportion to the size of the
fees they receive from their clients,
and that the Interpretation Of the law
by the supreme court Of the United
States was clear,
1t had been Mr. Pomerene's intention
to ask for vote at the conclusion
of his speech, but Mr. Nelson was anx-
ious to begin the delivery of an extend
ed speech on Canadian reciprocity and
the Ohio senator yielded to him. The
resolution, subject to call, was laid aside
for the time, but Mr. Pomerene will
press for action on it at an early date.

REGARDS HISCURE
AS A MIRACLE
This Illinois Man Had Stomach
Trouble and Was Becoming
Paralyzed.

Mr.. J. F. Bennington, OF Dallas City,
III, regards his cure by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills az q miracle. He is well
known both at Stronghurst, ILL.,, where
he formerly resided and at La Harpe.
For wears he has been recommending
the pills that cured him. He says:
''My stomach trouble, which afflicted
me for about two years, began with a
general weakness didn't have
strength enough to hold up my head
and could eat nothing but lactated food
for over six months, while il was more
than a year before | could eat any solid
food. | had palpitation OF the heart
and my breath was short My left leg
and hand gradually became numb and
/ could not use either for a long time.
AT first my hand felt full of needles
when closed it; afterwards there was
no feeling in it at all. | had many
sleepless nights and suffered intensely.
II doctored at Stronghurst and La
Harpe and had two specialists from
Chicago, but there wasn't one among
the doctors who could tell what my
trouble was and their treatments did
not help me. My brothers moved me
TO La Harpe from Stronghurst during
nv sickness but had no hopes OF ever
getting well. took electric treatment
without any help and many medicines
with no better result. Ny home doctor
came TO see me one morning after he
had been treating me for three months
and told me that he couldn't do any
more for me and that ought to go to
the Springs. But az couldn't sit up
or walk | kept on trying different doc
tors for eighteen months. When one
is sick some one always suggests rem
edy and in my case an old lady friend
recommended DR. Williams Pink Pills
and / decided to try them. took
them for two weeks, carefully following
the directions and at the end OF that
time began TO crave a good meal My
hand and leg got so that could use
them again. / gradually regained my
health and weight and have worked as
ever from that time. haven missed
work ON account of sickness but two or
three DAYS in the last nine or ten years.
MY cure was certainly a miracle as all
my friends and relatives expected TO
hear OF my death.
