LOOK FOR SHEEHAN
TO WITHDRAW
NEXT WEEK
Tammany Candidate May Retire
on Monday or tuesday
MURPHY GETTING WORRIED
Senatorial Deadlock at Albany Get
ting on the Nerves of the
Wigwam Chief

Albany, Jan. 2S.-Tammany Leader
Charles f. Murphy and his lieuten-
ants at the capitol are utilizing the
period of armed truce that now OBJ
tains in the Senatorial contest to
sound insurgent members of the leg
islature with regard to their prefer
ence as acandidate when William f.
Sheehan withdraws from the race.
The withdrawal of Mr.. Sheehan is
looked for on Monday or Tuesday. He
has been losing strength steadily and
is not over-hopeful though tenacious.
The deadlock at Albany has become
almost scandal, and the Tammany
chieftain is chatting under the censure
of himself and his organization. BY
Monday it Is understood that Mr. Muir
ply will ask Mr. Sheehan to make a
definite showing of his strength, and
if this, as is expected, should prove
insufficient for his election, Mr.. Shee-
han will be asked If he does not think
the time has come for him to with
draw. 1t may be stated on good au-
thority that should Mr.. Sheehan de-
cline Mr.. Murphy will remain loyal
to him.
The Tammany leader has told his
friends that his word is as good as
his bond, and that il Mr.. Sheehan
should decide to stay in the fight he
will be %illing to let the entire legis-
lative proram of this first Democratic
administration in two decades so by
the board in order to wear out the
opposition and show the independents
who have preferred to heed the de-
sires OF their constituents rather than
the commands Mr.. Murphy in this
Senatorial contest, that he Is the real
Democratic state boss. Should Muir
ply assume this attitude 1t might tie
up legislative business indefinitely.
Norman +. Mack, chairman OF the
Democratic National committee
whose allegiance to Mr.. Sheehan has
been attested by numerous public
statements, has been seeking light on
who the candidate for United States
Senate. In the case of Mr.. Sheehan's
withdrawal, ought to be. The insur.
gents have given him non-committal
answers. They know that OF those
who signed the anti-Sheehan pledge
not one can be budged by inducements
of any kind.
They know too, that at least twen-
ty-five upstate Democrats are ready
to break away from their caucus
pledge, and that Mr.. Murphy has gone
it a little too strong to please even
his following Of the Tammany dele
cation to the legislature.

NO MORE STOMACH MISERY
No Indigestion, Heartburn, Gas or
Dyspepsia Five Minutes Later

If your meals don't fit comfortably,
OF you feel bloated after eating and
you believe it is the food which fills
you; if what little you eat lies like
a lump of lead on your stomach; if
there is difficulty in breathing after
eating, eructations of sour, undigested
food and acid, heartburn, brash or
belching of gas, you can make up
your mind that you need something
to stop food fermentation and cure
indigestion.
To make every bite of food you eat
aid in the nourishment and strength
of your body, you must rid your sto-
mach of poisons, excessive acid and
stomach gas, which sours your entire
meal-interferes with digestion and
causes so many sufferers OF Dyspepsia
Sick Headache, Biliousness, Consti-
patton, Gripping, etc. Your case is no
different-you are a stomach sufferer,
though you may call it by some other
name; your real and only trouble is
that which you eat does not digest,
but quickly ferments and sours, pro
dhcing almost any unhealthy condit-
ion.
A case of Pape's Diapepsin will cost
fifty cents at any Pharmacy here and
will convince any stomach sufferer
five minutes after taking a single dose
that Fermentation and Sour Stomach
is causing the misery of Indigestion.
No matter If you call your trouble
Catarrh of the Stomach, Nervousness
or Gastritis, or by any other name
always remember that a certain cure
is waiting at any drug store the mo-
ment you decide to begin its use.
Pape's Diapepsin will regulate any
out of order stomach within five min
utes, and digest promptly, without any
fuss or discomfort, all of any kind of
food you eat.

behalf OF the labor leaders. The prin-
cipal charges against his clients were
summarized as being that they had
issued publications In violation OF the
injunction against boycotting the
Bucks Stove and Range company
Since the acts OF his clients were only
prohibited by the void portions OF the
decree. he urged the District Supreme
court could not punish them for con-
tempt. under the statutes OF the Uni

tion of the injunction decree being
void, and even II the acts OF his eli
ents were not as he claimed they
were. that the court could not punish
them for violating a void decree.

ended Monday.
