.PHOSPHO- O-PEPSIN HELPS
DIGEST WHAT YOU EAT

No one can be well and healthy IL
the food does not digest properly, and
when symptoms like bodily fatigue,
biliousness, palpitation of the heart,
impaired appetite or sick headache ap-
pear it is a sure sign Of Indigestion and
calls for prompt attention or chronic
dyspepsia with all its horror is sure to
result.
Phospho-Pepsin is an ideal remedy
for stomach upsets and brings quick
relief whenever used because II acts
solely and only on the digestive tract
by gently stimulating and toning the
muscular structure and exciting a nor
NAL flow of gastric juices. Further
more, PhosphotPepsin is a digestive in
itself, and. aside from the tonic effect,
contains the necessary elements which
careless living or eating have robbed
the stomach of.
Phospho- Pepsin is unfailing in ~"
action. and for convenience is put up
in tablet formB Druggists such as
James o'Donnell sell Phospho-Pepsin
for only 35 cents a package.

BRIEF in SHREVEPORT
CASE REACHES court
Solicitor Farrell, Of Interstate Com
meree Commission, Asks that Com
meree Court Be Sustained.
CONGRESS- POWER PLENARY

In brief filed yesterday in the Supreme
Court on behalf of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. in what is known IS
the Shreveport rate case, P. ]. Farrell.
solicitor for the commission, argues in
support of the opinion of the United
States Commerce Court which dismissed
the petition OF a number of Southwestern
railroads seeking to have an order by the
Interstate Commerce Commission affect
ing them suspended.
The brief asserts that the power OF Con-
gress in such matters ''is plenary, may
be exercised to its utmost extent, and
acknowledges no limitations other than
are prescribed in the Constitution
The brief also asserts that under sec
tions and Is OF the Interstate commerce
act Congress authorized the Interstate
Commerce Commission to determine
whether discrimination against inter-
state commerce is undue, and. IL found
to be so, to require its removal It Is
argued on behalf OF the commission that
the proviso in section of the commerce
act, which declares that the Interstate
Commerce Commission shall not have
jurisdiction over commerce wholly with
in one State" does not limit the Inter
state Commerce Commission where the
regulation of the intrastate traffic may
concern another State.
The Shreveport case, which will be
argued at the next term OF the Supreme
Court. is looked upon by traffic experts
and lawyers as the sequel of the Mime
sofa rate case. II involves a conflict
between Federal and State authority. II
raises the question whether a State. in
its laws or in orders made by railway
commissions, may reduce rates between
points wholly within that State. but on
an interstate railway, so low that they
fall below the prevailing or established
rate for haul of the same or a shorter
distance in interstate commerce over the
same line OF road

Wilson Compromise
On Cotton Exckc-ses
Has Narrow Majority

President Wilson narrowly escaped a
rebuke at the hands of the House OF
Representatives yesterday. An amend
itariff bill proposing to regulate the
operations of cotton exchanges, notably
the New York Exchange. presented by
Democratic Leader Underwood, with
the statement that it was approved by
President Wilson. passed by a narrow
margin-171 TO 16l.
The debate on the cotton futures
proposition was one Of the liveliest of
this session. Representative Payne or
New York. one of the Republican lead
ers. stirred up the animals when he re-
marked that he was tired Of Witnessing
Southern Democrats presenting schemes
10 regulate the price of cotton up
ward" especially at a time when they
were passing a bill that they said
wa;.Id send the prices of other products
downward.
Leader Underwood told the House, in
Substance, that If il wanted legislation
or the subject of cotton futures at this
time that il would be we'll TO adopt the
amendment that he offered. he declared
frankly that il the Clarke amendment.
which provides for a tax Of 30 cents
bale on cotton not actually delivered, was
cotton exchanges out of business.
1 : Little hope is expressed by House lead
iers that the Senate will concur in the
amendment adopted yesterday.
The amendment adopted prescribes the
form of contract that must be drawn
covering what are known in the market

f cent a pound is levied on such trans
actions. One-half to be paid by the buyer
land one half by the seller. 1t is provided
that any sale, or agreement to sell. any
cotton for future delivery, shall be deem

Z Any violation of the proposed law is
made punishable by a fine of not less
than 800 nor more than 10000. or i'm
prisonment for not less than one year nor
more than three years in the discretion
lf the court. One OF the nine cotton
standards prescribed by the government
must be cited in a given contract. and
the Secretary of Agriculture is author

amendment is to provide means of regu-

PINDELL TO HEAD
EMBASSY in RUSSIA
Illinois Democrat Selected by Presi.
dent to Represent United States
in St. Petersburg.
CRANE DECLINED THE PLACE

The United States has inquired OF tbs
Russian government if Henry NJ. Pin
dell. Of Peoria, Ill. will be acceptable a,
the American Ambassador to that coun.
trJ. II the Russian reply is favorable
the President will nominate Mr.. Pindel,
for the Russian post, which is the most
important position in the diplomatic
service now untitled.
Mr.. Ptndell, as Ambassador to Rus
STA, would succeed Ambassador Curtis
Guild, who resigned and returned to
the United States several months ago.
In Mr.. Guilds term, the United States
abrogated its commercial treaty with
Russia because Of certain discrfmina-
tions against American citizens of the
Jewish faith in the issuance OF pass
ports into Russia.
There exists now no convention be-
tween the two nations, and II Is ex-
pected that a new treaty will be uego-
tiated as speedily as possible. The
new American Ambassador undoubted-
ly will play an. important part in its
negotiation.
Mr.. PindelI is an editor and a banker.
He has been a loyal Democrat, and his
appointment. which has been urged by
Senator J. Hamilton Lewis, will be ac-
ceptabIe to all Democratic factions in
Illinois, II is said. He has the indorse-
ment of National Committeeman Roger
Sullivan, and no objection has been
lodged against him by friends of the
administration as yet He was at one
time considered for the Comptrollership
Of the Currency.
The Ambassadorship, which Mr.. Pindel
has accepted. was rendered Mr.. Charles
r. Crane, OF Chicago. in the earlier
months OF the administration Of Presi-
dent Wilson, but was declined by him.
Until very recently, however. many Of
the Presidents friends believed that Mr..
Crane eventually would accept.
