BALLOON TROPHY SAFE
TOHAW[EY AND POST
The International AeronauticaI
Federation Throws Out
Protest.

PARIS. January 1O-The Interna tional
Aeronautical Federation. which met here
today, decided that it had no authority
to consider the protest against the award
Of the international balloon trophy to the
Americans Alan r. Hawley and Angus
tus Post on the ground that the protest
as made was irregular The federation
declared that the protest should be lodged
first with the sporting commission OF the
American Aero Club.
The. protest was made by the Lower
Rhine Aeronautic Association. which al
legged that the American Aero Club did
not enter its contestants two months in
advance of the race, as is required by
the rules. and again that the announced
winners failed to furnish documents prop
erly attesting as to their landing place,
as required by the International Aeronau-
tic Federation.
Protest Promptly Disposed OF.
first matters taken up by The federation,
and was promptly disposed of. No pro-
test was received from the Swiss Aero
Club. as had been expected. Henry Ca
chard. counsel for the Americans, said
that ii the Swiss objection in reference to
gas came up it would take the form of a
suggestion of new regulations to be
adopted in future contests
Tie German protestants held that
Hawley and Post had not furnished suf-
ficient Notifications of their flight, as they
had not brought out of the Canadian will
derness proper proof, such as the records
and instruments of their balloon, to es-
tabish their accomplishment beyond rea-
Sonable doubt.
The federation. which is court of ap-
peal for the international clubs, without
passing upon the merit of the question,
ruled that the matter should be consid-
cred first by the American commission.
The American delegates to the fedora
tion are T. Bently Mott, American mill
tary attache here; Hart o. Berg. Eugene
Higgins, Edgar W. MIX and Lorillard

of Commissioners.

In the hope of settling directly by ne
gotiatiOn certain questions which have
arisen as to the regulations enacted by
the legislature of Newfoundland and by
the government of Canada for the con-
duct Of the coastal fisheries. thereby
avoiding the necessity for convening the
special board of experts provided for by
the award of The Hague tribunal in the
fisheries arbitration, commissioners rep
resenting Canada and the United States
met at the State Department again to-
day.
1t is apparent that number Of sessions
will be required to reach an agreement
upon the complex issues presented. The
fact that the people Of Newfoundland are
reluctant to permitting the special board
Of experts created under The Hague
award in the fisheries cases to pass upon
the legality of the acts of the New
foundland legislature, is, however, basis
for the expectation that they are prepared
to recognize a fair and liberal cOnStruc-
ton of the existing laws on the subject

waters.
Act Restricts Americans.
One question to be settled at the outset
vessels act Of 1906 which imposes on
American fishing vessels certain restric-
tions in addition to those that were i'm
posed by the old act Of 1905. There Is
also question of the right of the New
foundlanders to board American vessels
and bring them into port under certain
conditions.
The Newfoundland law prohibits the
shipment of Newfoundlanders as men,
bers of the crews of American fishing
vessels plying their vocation in New
foundland waters. 1t also prohibits SUM-
day fishing and the use of purse seines.
These prohibitions are obnoxious to the
Gloucester fisherman. with the possible
exception Of the Sunday law

They ARE not now in effect, their opera
tion having been suspended by the mod,,s

tween the British foreign Office and Ann
bassador Reid as preliminary to the
adjustment of the fisheries dispute by
The Hague tribunal.
AS the decision Of that tribunal has now
been rendered. the modus vivendi has
served its purpose, and the old. obnoxious
fishing regulations will apply in full force
unless something is done by the present
conference to reach a better understand
ing.

Received 1O8 Votes.

Proceeding to a discussion Of the events
just before and at the time of the cleo
tion. Mr.. Crawford pointed out that Lori
mer received 1OS of the 2O2 votes cast
in the election for senator May %, 1909.
I'm this 1OS." he said, ARE the votes
of White. Browne Broderick, Wilson.
Holtslaw. Beckemeyer. Link. Luke, Shep-
hard, Clark and De Wolf, all of whom
are democrats, and. in my opinion. the
vote of each was tainted with fraud and
corruption. White. Holtslaw, Beckemeyer
and Link confessed to receiving money
designated as Lorimer money as well as
part of the Jackpot SHEPPARD, Luke
and Clark might well have admitted
it, because the evidence as to their guilt
is overwhelming"
Senator Crawford finds no help for the
that Lee O'Neil Browne was acquitted In
the courts.
THE fact that Browne and Broderick
and Wilson have been reelected. II 1t be
true. should have no weight here. he
continued. Under the minority repre-
sentation provision in Illinois-where one
voter may mass three votes upon one
candidate for the legislature-it is not
surprising that constituencies that were
so careless as to send these men to the
legislature several times in the past
should do so again. But that does not
affect the prObative force OF the testt-
mony found in this record, which. it
seems to me. is convincing. and which
proves to a reasonable certainty that the
votes of Browne. White, Holtslaw. Clark
Link, Beckemeyer, Luke. Sheppard, De-
Wolf and Broderick, cast for Mr.. Lori
mer, were corrupt votes"

Control of Several I'm:

NEW ORLEANS. January 1O.-A spe-
cial from Port Barrios. Guatemala, to-
day states that the revolutionary forces
operating on the north coast Of Hon.

islands, attacked the mainland and seized
Cape Triumfo, Bishops point and Micas

The special states that the gunboat
Hornet last Saturday conveyed a large

1t is asserted that Manuel Bonilla

neuvers which are disclosed in the evil
dence presented to us here"
These three facts, he stated thus:
"First-The election of an antf-HOpkins
man and Lorimer republican as, speak
er by means of democratic votes. in or
der that the Llorimer men might control
the organization of the house.
'Second-The election of Lee ONeil
Browne as the absolute dictator OF a
faction consisting of about thirty demo
cratic members of the house for whom
he could make corrupt and unscrupulous
deals and whose votes he could deliver.
''Third-A complete understanding be-
tween the men who handled the jackpot
fund in both the senate and house and
the men who were furthering the cam
paign of Mr.. Lorimer for election to the
office of United States senator, and the
formation of complete union for CO.
operation between them.
'It Is perfectly apparent to my mind
that after these three steps, which were
necessary to the success of Mr.. Lori
mer, had been taken, Browne and Shurt-
left and Lorimer made most complete
and thorough canvass of the entire mem
bership of the legislature to find how
many votes they could secure and to as
certain the means which should be taken
to secure sufficient number. Browne
in the house and Broderick in the senate
were charged with the work OF corrupt
ing all democratic members who could
be reached in that way. l see no escape
from this conclusion"

NERVOUS
DYSPEPSIA
"A Disorder Which Yields to the
Tonic Treatment as This
California Case
Shows.

There is form of Indigestion in
which the stomach may be in per-
fectly sound condition. This is called
nervous dyspepsia and arises from u
disturbance OF the nervous system
which controls the digestive process.
That the nerves do control this pro-
cess is evident from the fact that acute
emotions such as grief or despair
immediately stop digestion, and that
an injury to the brain or a nerve
center causes nausea and other distur-
hances of the stomach. The digestive
fluids such as saliva and gastric Juice
are the products of cells which are
abundantly supplied with nerve fibres,
aid the mere expectation OF food will
start the flow of these fluids.
An instance in which this form of
nervous trouble was readily cured by
the tonic treatment was that Of Mrs.
E. J. Burdick, OF Campbell, Cal. She
says,
Three. years ago had nervous dys-
pepsia and think it was due to overworrk.
My stomach did not seem to digest the
