DR.. B. Halstead Scott, of Chica-

your Castoria often for infants
during my practice and find it
very satisfactory"
DR.. William Belmont, of Cleve-

stands first in its class. In my

never have found anything that so
filed the place."
Dr.. r. J. Han1en, of Detroit,

toria extensively as I have never
found anything to equal it for chill

I always soc that my patients get
Fletcher's.
DIR. Charming Fl. Cook, of Saint
Louis, Mo-, says: "I have used
your Castoria for several years past
in my own family and have always
found it thoroughly efficient and
never objected to by children,
which is a great consideration in
view of the fact that most medi-
cines of this character are obnox-
ious and therefore difficult of adj
ministration. AS a laxative I
consider it the peer of anything
that ever prescribed"

No Canal Legislation at This Session.

No Canal Leg station at This Session.
Especial to The Bulletin.)
Washington, July 2.-In the senate
Friday Senator Brandegee sent to the
desk and had read resolutions adopted
by the Philadelphia maritime exchange
which recites the fact that the Pan
anna canal was to be opened to mer-
chant shipping in the fall of 1913 and
that at least two years would be neces-
sary for steamship companies to ter
inmate existing contracts and provide
new facilities for use through the
canal, and asking that Legislation be
at once enacted at this special session
fixing the tolls or authorizing the
president to fix, within limits estab-
lished by congress, the tolls to be
charged for the use of the canal by
merchant shipping of the United
States and of foreign countries
In explaining the situation, Senator
Brandegee said he had conferred with
the members of the house committee
on interstate and foreign commerce
and had been Informed that there was
no probability that such legislation
could be put through the house this
session. That the caucus of the ma
jority party had decided what should
be done and nothing not recommended
by that caucus would be takeI up He
said he had consulted with the mem
bers of the senate committee on inter
oceanic canals, of which he l. chair
man, and had also had several con-
ferences with the president on the
subject, and upon his assurance that
he did not think at this time it would
be wise for him to ask it and in ac-
cordance with the consensus of opin-
ion of the members of tire committee
he thought it due to those interested
in shipbuilding and those who desire
to prepare themselves for the use of
the canal to make the statement that
it was not probable that anythfr g
