tenn. Dr. Hare declared that caffeine was not poison and that it was not habit-forming drug. He said that while the Pharmacopaeia fixed the dose of caffeine at one grain, his own book placed it at two grains. On cross-exam- ination pr. Hare admitted that caffeine in coffee acted as stimulant. Being confronted with his book he admitted that he had written that caffeine affects the nerves and would make people ner- vous. He admitted that caffeine to the amount of seven and one-half grains would cause intoxieation sim- liar to that produced by alcohol. He was forced to admit that he had writ ten in his book that caffeine was q stimulant of the brain and that a brain driven along by caffeine ultimately would break down in concentration in a single effort. He finally stated that persistent use of caffeine would cause such delirium as that resulting from the use of alcohol.
 Dr. S. D. Sadler of Philadelphia tes tified that he had analysed coca -cola syrup and found it to contain one and e-fifteenth grains of caffeine to each ounce, and the usual drink as served at fountains. He had also analysed 'mer- chandise No B." the principal ingred- lent of the coca-cola syrup and found a trace of the bromide, some caffeine, a trace of tannln and other attractive matter. He was unable to say how much tannin from coca leaves or kola nut and California wine was contained in the syrup.

 PROPOSED STRIKE

Chicago, March 3o.-W. l.. Park, gem eral manager of the Illinois Central rail- road; H. P. Perham of St. Louis, repre- senting the telegraphefs. and ]. W. Mill Ter, chairman of the Louisiana division of the 10 hours union, conferred here toCay on the wage question. A strike is threatened for April 1 by the men, who ask an increase of 20 per cent in wages.
 At a strike vote recently taken 95 per cent of the 1900 telegraphers voted to go out unless there was a satisfactory wage increase granted. The Chicago confer ence was expected to last two days If no satisfactory agreement could be reached before that time as all parties interested had announced an intention 10 avoid a strike If possible.
 Officials of the railroad today denied that a strike was threatened and ex- plained the situation thus:
 'The annual telegraphers' bill Of wages expires April 15. and they are required to give us 30 days notice if they desire a change They notified us in January. They ask approximately 25 per cent in- crease and the companys offer Is about 10 per cent. The conferences will be daily until settlement Is reached There is absolutely no talk of strike, and the situation now is purely the perfume tory order such matters always take"

Chattanooga. March 30.-Government elated today at the reading in the federal court of a deposition from Knoxville dealer in coca -cola-Dr. J. c. Gooding. The deponent stated that he Is years, and though he was a witness for the defense, he stated that he made it business to refuse to sell more than one glass of coca-cola to a cus- toner at one time. On cross-examina- ton he stated that the reason for such refusal was just the same as that he would refuse to give two doses of laudanum or morphine to a customer.
 The star witness of the day for the defense was pr. H. A. Hare of Phil adelphia. pr. Hare said that he had written several medical books and was one of the authors of the Pharmaco- speak of the effect Of caffeine on anil mals and human beings. He declared that he was a constant user of caffeine as a drug, taking from one to four ularly. Aside from this he said he was q coffee drinker to the extent of two or three cups a day and that he drank from one to four glasses of coca -cola

tions arose arbitration might prove in- adequate.
 The chancellor's speech which was along the line of his earlier utterances, was made in the discussion of the resolu- tions offered by the socialists and radicals asking for an extension of international arbitration and the limitation of arma- ment. These resolutions came before tho house at the opening of the customary debate on foreign affairs in connection with the chancelor's budget
 Count Won Kanitz, conservative, de- voted the greater part of his speech to American affairs. contrasting the speech of Commander William S. Sims of the American navy at the Guild Hall, Lon don, which called forth reprimand from President Taft, with the utterances of Congressman Champ Clark concerning the annexation of Canada, saying:
 While an American naval officer is as- suring England of the friendship of the United States, future President of that ration is talking of the absorption of Canada
 Canadian reciprocity. he said, raised the point of what compensatory favors were to be had by Germany. Of the pro- posed Anglo American complete arbitra- tion treaty the speaker said the plan promised little, if questions like that of the Monroe doctrine were excluded
 Dr. Spahn, vice president and leader of the center party, said he favored arbi- tration. Ernest Bassermann, national lib- eral, welcomed the principle of arbitra- ton and disarmament

Berlin, March 30.-Discussing the pro- posed extension of international arbitra- ton in the reichstag today, Chancellor Won Beathmann-Hollwe classed univer- sal arbitration and universal disarmament as ideals impossible of realization.
 The nations, including Germany said the chancellor. "have been talking dis armament since the first Hague confer ence, but neither In Germany nor else where has practical plan been pro- posed. Great Britain wishes the limta- tion of armaments but simultaneously wants a superior or equal fleet. Any con- ference on this subject is bound to be fruitless. No standard for a limitation can be found and any conceivable pro- posal would be shattered on the question of control"
 Won Vethmann-Hollweg instanced Na- roleon's limitation of the Prussian army, when Prussia, adhering to the letter of her treaty. trained four-fold army by shortening the period of training Ger many was willing, he said, to accept the English proposal for an exchange of in formation regarding navy building pro- grammes. He accepted the idea of arb- tration in principle, but universal arbi- tration was as impossible of accomplish 1nent as universal disarmament, he said.

 Four Million Dollars
PLANNING TO REBUILD

Albany N Y. March 30.--More than 130 the still smoking ruins left by the fire in the west end of the state capitol this afternoon and soon discovered that the wreck of the states magnificent library was not as complete as at first supposed. Buried under tons of stone lay thousands Of books that can be preserved by ro- binding and many that escaped un- scathed. The salvage may amount to many thousands of dollars.
 Records Of the war of 1872 were foun1 intact. and the custodians hope other valuable relics may be discovered in a state worthy of preservation.
 The unsettled United States senatorship situation leaves in doubt the question of temporary quarters of the legislature. if the legislators elect a senator tomorrow they may recess for week or more, leaving the matter of quarters open until they return.
 State Architect Ware has recommended that the legislature authorize immediate ly the preparation of plans for rebuild ing the ruined third and fourth floors in the west end. t..
 Unofficial estimates place the cost of reconstruction close to Sf0O0.000. II is said that an app -opriation of this size would practically fpe out the estimated sur plus remaining in the state treasury at the end of the present fiscal year. The state cannot bond itself for this rebuild ing. and the money must be taken di- rectly from the treasury
 The first inspection after the smoke cleared away convinced the state archi- tect that the remaining walls of the southwestern cupola were unsafe and the occupants of houses on the opposite side of State street have been directed to va cate until the walls are pulled down or made safe.

In response to this order he gave up his place in the Civic federation

 Tn the few days since I resigned from the Civic federation l have heard it re- ported that some persons have said that my action was not display of loyalty to the union, but rather an admission that l was in the wrong.
 'It would require no high courage for me at this time to give up my member ship in the union. It was real hard ship, however, to give up my work in the body that is trying to establish in- dustrial peace But I had no choice. did not give up $6o00 year for little card. l gave up the money for a prin- ciple.

Taft PostpOnes Message

President Taft has put off writing his message until more of the party leaders reach the city for the extra ses sion of Congress. and is not expected to begin the rough draft of it until about the end of this week.
 The present indications are that the message will be very brief It will deal largely With reciprocity and may be confined wholly to that subject It is suggested today that the executive will simply reiterate te in his coming mes sage the reasons advanced in the first reciprocity message why the trade re- lations of the two countries should be closer.
 This will be accompanied by the find ings of the officials who negotiated the treaty and by the letter of Secretary Knox urging that the pact be entered into.
 Those who have talked to the Pres ident about his forthcoming message say that he is still of the opinion that it would be unwise to incorporate in that instrument any recommendation except that devoted to reciprocity. This means that the tariff board proposition will be left for later consideration
