Confirmation of the report that
Neuralgyline stock would be placed
on IL per cent basis on August 1.
vas received yesterday. The books
for the quarterly 3 per cent dividend
have just been closed and the money
will be ready for distribution TO the
stockholders at that time. The stock

IL Is expected to go higher.
The reasoning on which the opinion
is based is an excellent one. as II is
known that the company is accumulat-
ing large surplus in addition to
paying the large dividend mentioned.
The dividend of the present year has
been paid out of the earnings Of only
one OF the several companies owned
by the big consolidation.
The advance in the price OF this
been as phenomenal as the growth of
the company itself. The concern was
started on a very small scale a few
years ago and through brilliant bust
ness management and the wide popu-
larity OF its remedies, has risen to
the proud position of the largest
patent medicine company in the
country. The companies now ownsd
include the Neuralgyline company.

FLINT ISLANDERS CUT OFF
 BY ICE FLoES
Signals of Distress Gall te Rescue
 Steamer.

Sydney. c. B., Feb. Marooned by the great ice floes that have been driven down from the frozen north through Cabot straits, the inhabitants of Flint island, one of the easternmost points of Canada, have displayed sig nals of distress and every effort to reach the island and relieve the res idents has proved unavailing.
 The government steamer Mont nagny attempted to reach the island, but was blocked by the, ice that was driven down by the northerly winds, and was forced to return to Halifax. The government steamer Stanley, built especially : for ice breaking, is frozen in the ice near Low Point, c. E. Low Point is on the western shore of Cape Breton island, and is at the lower end of the gulf of St. Law renee
 When the Stanley is able to release herself from the grip of the ice she will start for Flint island in an en- deavor to learn the cause of the sig nals of distress being displayed.
 Ice conditions about the straits of Northumberland, Cabot straits and the gulf of St. Lawrence are partic- ularly severe at present. The steamer Bruce, which maintains the passenger and freight service between North Sydney and Port Aux Basques, N. F., is frozen in the ice in Cabot straits. Several steamers are reported ice- bound in the vicinity of St Johns.

JURY TO TRY
 GARDNER FOR BRIBERY
New York State Senator Will Be on
 the Stand Today.

New York, Feb. 15.-A full jury to try the charges that Frank J. Gard ner a former state senator, attempted to ,bribe Representative Otto G. Foelk- ef. then also 2 state senator. was ob- tained late today and court was ad- iourned until tomorrow, when the trial win begin. Foelker cast the deciding vote in favor of the Hart-Agnew Esac- ing bills. advocated by Governor Hughes, and was brought to Albany on a cot to do it, in April. 1908.
 During sharp brush today be- tween counsel. Assistant District At tOrney Notte asked Max D. Steuer, de- lending Gardner. if it was true. 'that you have certain surprises in store for the state?"
 T think so,'' replied Steuer .sAt any rate I don't think I should like to be in the shoes of some of those who may or may not give testimony for the state.
 Gardner, his lawyer said today, will take the stand in his own behalf and testify to what he knows of race- track legislation at Albany in 1908. He added that Charles H. Hyde, the city chamberlain, had given assur- ances that he is willing to testify for the defendant. The late Merritt joint legislative Investigating committee sought Chamberlain Hyde's testimony on racing matters and did not get it. Hyde was in Florida, duck shooting, and returned to New York on the day that the powers of the committee to take testimony expired.
