treatment, pronounced it incurable Sci

constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh

had failed to form cabinets, NJ Bris-
son was commissioned by the Presi-
dent to undertake this duty, which he
carried to a successful issue. In that
year, the army became the subject of
dissensions. After a series of votes af-
firmlng the supremacy of the civil over
the military power, declaring contin-
ued confidence in the army, and re-
jecting a motion censuring the gov
eminent For not causing the army
to be respected" the Chamber called
upon the government to institute pros
ecutions against persons insulting the
| army. This NJ. Brisson declined to
do and the subsequent vote of conf
dence in the government was lost by
| 2S6 to 254. NJ. Brisson and his coll
| league Immediately resigned. Thus fell
! a government which was noted for It's
determined effort to free the nation
from an aggressive militaryisnl.
! Nj. Brisson was reelected President
of the Chamber of Deputies In 1906 and
held that important office ever since.
He was mentioned recently as a pos
sible candidate to succeed NJ Faliieres
as President of the Republic in 1913.

Nearly Every Cotton Concern
Restores 1907 Wage Scale.
A Majority Of Wooden Mills Have
Also Raised Wages.

Boston, April 1.-THE cotton indus
try in New England, which has been
disturbed by strikes and lockouts in
various cities, seemed more settled, to-
night, than has been the case since. the
first of the year. Both manufacturers
and representatives of the workers ex-
PRESS confidence that the unrest in
the industry is at an end
One hundred and fifty thousand cot
ton mill operatives in this section Of
the country have received advances of
approximately 10 per cent. in wages
besides securing more satisfactory
working conditions. Practically every
cotton concern has returned to the
wage scale which prevailed in 1897,
when wages We're the highest in the
history of the country.
There are but a few small strikes in
force. all the larger labor disturbances
and many of the smaller ones having
been amieahly settled. The cotton mills
in Lowell, which have been closed for
several weeks, are expected to open
week from tomorrow. The operators
there announced wage advance of
10 per cent. and a majority of the 15,-
900 workers, who have either been on
strike or have been locked out by the
closing Of the mills, have indicated
that they would return 10 their places
Of employment when the mills resum-
ed operations.
Cotton manufacturers in New Eng
land employing about $4,000 hands
have not announced as yet wage in
creases of more than 5 per cent,
though some of them expect to in
crease the amount within a short time.
Since the announcements of wage
increase have been made, the price of
certain grades of cotton cloth has
been advanced. The increase has aver
aged from about II to n cent yard.
A majority of the wooden mills in
New England have raised wages 5 per
cent. and in some cases a little more.
Tt is estimated that 100000 wooden mill
operatives have benefited by the adj
vance.
Work will be resumed, tomorrow, at
the mills of the Hudson Worsted Co,
where strike has been in progress.
The company granted the demands Of
the operatives for 54-hour week
without reduction in pay. time and a
quarter for overtime and other con-

strikers have succeeded in reaching an
agreement on all features except the
fines system. The arbitration COM
mittee of the Board of Trade which
has had much to do with bringing
about settlement of the other differ
ances had issued a statement saying
that the fines system cannot be ad-
justed to the satisfaction of all parties.
AS a direct result of the strike at
Clinton. a firm of grocers has been
obliged to suspend business and make
an assignment fer the benefit of credi-
tors. The 1900 operatives who are
out of work have no money to spend
and all of the business houses are
feeling the effect of their lack.

He declined to make any predictions.

expression of popular opposition to

Col Roosevelt said that some of his
opponents were misrepresenting the
situation in regard to the number of
delegates elected for President and for
himself and were claiming far more
for the President than was justified.
He said he was considering the add
visibility of preparing a formal state
ment in regard to this matter.
AT the present time he continued,
Il think that the delegates really in
structed are about evenly divided. l
think it is about $50 each"

to vote for him. and he expressed the
belief that at the National conven-
ton, he would have 20 more New

to these 20 delegates that he could
