 Turning to the British financial problem, CrammOnd asserted that tariff for revenue purposes here is ab- sOlutely essential for the "preserva- ton of the balance of our economic system"
 He points to Britains outlay, to date-$5, ,92O,OOO,OOO including the gross expenditure and the loans to Dominions, Allies and repayments to the Bank of England, declaring:
 eve overcome the financial diff culties of the first eighteen months of war with astounding ease, but the outlook for the coming financial year gives cause for anxiety"
 Figuring in the newly established Excess Profits Tax which he estimates will bring in about $5OO,OOO,OOO, CrammOnd says that if the national income for the coming year should only reach sum as estimated for the year ending March 1916, the gov ernmenfs financial deficiency at the end of March 1917 will be about $4,- 9OOOO,OOO, which makes a tariff for revenue imperative"

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when It is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

FRAUDULENT MONEY
Made For Mexico BY Agents In This
COnntry-Case To BE Heard
In California.

San Francisco, February g.
Charged with having stolen the litho-
graphing stones from which Mexican
money is made, and with having these
stones in their possession in San Franz
cisco, Jacinto Luengo, formerly an en-
ployee of the Mexican treasury, and
Lorenzo Aribau, his alleged confeder-
ate, will be tried in the United States
District court here tomorrow. Not
only are the Mexicans involved in the
money scandal, but three prominent
Californians have been arrested on
charges of conspiring to utter and pass
counterfeit money of Mexico.
The Americans involved are Robert
NJ. Widney, son of Judge r. NJ. Wild
ney of Los Angeles, Philip Thorn and
Walter S. Williams, two mining brok-
ers. 1t is also claimed by the agent
of Carranza who brought about the
roundup that the Southern Pacific
Company has been a large purchaser
of this alleged spurious money and
shipped it to its Mexican offices, where
it was used to pay off its employees,
according to the agent.
Upon the genuineness or spurious
character of the big issues of bills
printed here from the Mexican plates
hangs the fates of the Americans who
have been selling the notes. The Car
rama agent, Arriola, has testified that
the money is bogus and has been repu-
dated by the Carranza government.
