"Chas B. James Memphis, Te1n.:

That does very well for "a string like I was when I went to you for treatment vii, always thank you for what you have done for me. Everybody says that I look 20 years younger than I did before treatment I am, therefore, thankful to you and Dr. Morrow and the Almighty God for being alive today. I know that am cured of the drug habit, as I have had no more desire for the drug than if I had never taken any in my life. So. wishing you much success to a good cause. I am yours until death.

The Spokane Reno rate decision by the interstate commerce commission started 8 furry in the stock market which car lied prices down point or two. Tie tanking interests came promptly to the rescue and put stocks back again to the rcfnt at which the decline started The more the decision is digested, however. the more bearish it becomes as stoch factor, in the estimation of the rank and file traders. It has sufficed to gen crate strong bearish feeling and to encourage the selling of stock, both for long and short account. Wall street is filled with a keener sense of uncertainty t.,an it has been in months. although every effort is being made to conceal the fact.

HELPED AVERT
PANIC IN 1907
E Il Gary Tells Of Work Of
Steel Corporation
SURPRISES The COMMITTEE
Declares Government Control and Pub.
Iicity Of Corporation Affairs
Is Inevitable.
SURPRISES The Committee

Washington, June 3.-Elbert H.
Gary, chairman of the United States
Steel corporation directorate, told the
Stanley steel trust investigating CON-
mittee that his corporation stood be-
hind J. Pierpont Morgan in averting
disastrous financial panic in 1907.
He insisted, challenging the state
ments of John w. Gates before the
committee, that the purchase by the
steel corporation of the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company at that time
was made at price more than it was
worth for the express purpose Of pre-
venting the crash of the New York
banking firm of Moore & schley.
Mr.. Gary related a dramatic story
of the mOmentOus events which pre-
coded the absorption of the Tennes-
see concern. He described in detail
how he and Henry G. Prick, at the in
stance of Mr.. Morgan, had revealed
tho plan of buying the company at a
price greater than it's value to Presi'
dent Roosevelt and Mr.. Root, then
secretary Of state. He told how he
had concluded, after this interview
with Mr.. Roosevelt, that any govern
ment prosecution of their act would
have been an outrage.
Many Surprising Statements.
Mr.. Gary made many surprising
statements during his eight hours ex-
than his declaration that government
control and publicity of corporations
in this country must come He said
that through the American Iron and
Steel institute the heads Of the steel
industry were trying to steer course
between the Sherman antitrust law,
which he characterized as "archaic,
on the one hand, and the old time
methods OF destructive competition on
the other, in order to operate for the
public welfare.
Mr.. Gary announced to the commit
tee that he wanted everything known
concerning the steel corporation and
more than all he pleaded for some re-
sponsible government source to which
such necessary great corporation
could appeal for guidance in the con"
duct of it's business. He agreed to fur
nish the committee so much that it
wishes to know that he will be re-
called when it meets again next
Wednesday.
Others who have been summoned to
appear are w. B. Dickson of the Unit
ed States Steel corporation and John
Lambert of the Republic Iron and
Steel company.

uSuRPS POWERS
OF LEGISLATION
Bryan GrIns Supreme Court al
St. Paul Banquet

st. Paul, June 2.-Democrats of Min.
nesota and adjoining states met at the
St. Paul Auditorium, celebrated the
victories of the past year and con-
graduated each other on the victories
they expect to win next year. Speak
ers of note from many states praised
the Democrats in congress, felicitated
the party on the number of good men
it has to choose from for the presi-
dency, declared that whoever they
nominate is bound to win and con-
graduated the people on their
restoration to power.
One of the unexpected shots at the
banquet was Bryan's charge that the
Standard Oil and tobacco trust de-
cisions Of the supreme court showed
that body's willingness to usurp the
powers of legislation and to protect
the trusts with laws they had sought
for years in vain to get of a pluto
cratic senate. He declared that JUS
tice White had waited for fifteen years
to write the word unreasonable" in
the antitrust law and that the deci.
sions not only gave the trusts six
months to conform with the law, but
told them how to do it.
The banquet arranged by Minneso-
ia Democrats was attended by more
than 900 loyal followers of the party;
some coming from North Dakota, Iowa
and other adjoining states
1t was no one man affair as to presi-
dental possibilities, for several men,
including w. J. Bryan, Governor
Burke of North Dakota. J. w. Folk of
Missouri and Congressman Hammond
OF Minnesota of those present and
Governor Wilson of New Jersey,
Speaker Champ Clark, John Lind and
others of the absent, shared in the ap-
plause and honors.

procty at Chicago.

Chicago, June 5.-President Taft, in
a speech before the Western Economic
society here, declared that the prin-
cipal opposition to the Canadian reci-
procity agreement came not from the
farmer but from the lumber trust"
and from American manufacturers of
print paper.
In one of the most comprehensive
addresses that he has ever made on
the subject the president outlined
some of the methods employed by the
opponents Of reciprocity; principally
told the farmers that they are being
"buncoed" by special interests and
said that the fate of the agreement
rested not so much with the United
States senate as with the people of
the country.

the Day BY Collecting Con-
tributions.

New York, Feb. 15.-New York suf.
fragists today observed the birthday
of Susan B. Anthony, the pioneer
American suffragiSt, by initiating a
week of collections for the cause
The observance is expected to be ma
tional in extent, the National Woman
Suffrage association having called
upon the women of the country to
contribute today whatever sum they
can spare lin recognition of their
improved status, to accomplish
which Miss Anthony cOnsecrated a
long life of sacrifice and service
The statement continues:
THE work of the present genera
ton of suffragists is largely a finan
cial one. Our possibilities are limit
less if the sinews of war are pro
vided. The Anthony fund will be
consecrated to definite work, and
will make it impossible for campaign
opportunities to be lost, as was ouI
experience during the last year, due
to lack of funds"
Scale of Contribution.
A scale of contributions, based or
the financial status of the cOntribu
tors, has been decided upon. PROBES
siOnal women, including physicians
lawyers, ministers, writer's, actres
ses and college women, are expected
to donate dollar. Stenographers
nurses and teachers may fulfill their
obligation to the cause with fifty.
cent contribution. Store and fac
tory employees are asked to give ter
cents each, while women of independ
ent means or those with wealthy
husbands are asked to respond as
generously as possible.
Suffragist leaders admit that
American women have in the past
been tightwads and have given little
money to the movement. in compari
son with the enormous sums raised
by the militant English suffragettes
Mere men will also be permitted
to subscribe to the Anthony fund.

THE WORK NOW IN PROGRESS
IN HAVANA HARBOR.
Thirteen Years Ago Tonight the Bat
tIeship Was Blown Up; Many
Men Perished.

Washington, February 15.-Thir-
teen years ago tonight the battleship
Maine was blown up in Havana Har-
Dor. and in memory of the men who
died appropriate exercises were held
today by military, patriotic and reli-
gious bodies. This years anniversary
Of the terrible disaster gains added
interest from the fact that the work
of raising the sunken hull of the
wrecked vessel is now nearing COM
pletion.
Engineers of the United States
army are in charge of the project
for raising the Maine. A steel Gals
son was driven into the hard clay
bottom of Havana Harbor, which is
about siXty-five feet below mean
tide. Walls of a cofferdam were
then built along either side of the
hull from this caisson until they
met at the other end of the vessel.
How Work Is Being Done.
This wall was filed with clay
from a bar near the wreck to give it
sufficient stability to prevent it from
being overturned when the water is
pumped out. The piling of the walls
was driven through ten to eighteen
feet of mud. and about thirteen feet
of the softer clay. The steel sheet
piling was driven until the steam
hammer made no impression, result
ing, it is believed, in making the
dam practically watertight
When the wreck has been exposed
all bodies will be taken out, and the
third of the ship which is twisted
mass of wreckage will be carefully
examined by experts to discover, if
possible, the cause of the explosion
which sent the Maine to the bottom.
The remainder of the ship will be
bulkheaded so that it will float, and
when the cOfferdam is again flooded
the Maine will be on the surface,
ready for congress to decide what
shall be done with her. The human
remains found will probably be
buried beside the bodies already re-
covered in Arlington cemetery.
