Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness.
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have a rumbling sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result Unless the
infia mmation can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever Many cases OF
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an infamed condition OF the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on. the mucous surfaces of the
system.

 My opinion is,' said MT. Flood, that viewing the question of the leadership from the standpoint of the interests of the democratic party. the administration and the country. Champ Clark is in- comparably the best man the democrats in Congress could choose. and I believe am accurate when I say that this view is entertained by very large majority of the democratic members of the next Congress.''-

Join in Christian Vatican Refuses to
 Congress, Report Says

Rome. April 13.- Tt is stated semi officially on behalf of the vatican that the Holy See has not given it adher- ence to the pan-C Thristian congress, which it is proposed to hold shortly as the Catholic churd h. considering her dogmatic character could no. join in the congress on an equal footing.
 The feeling of the vatican says the semi official expression, is that all the other Christian denominations seeded from the Roman church, which descends directly from Chrift, and that there fore Rome cannot go to them, it being for them to return 10 her bosom.
 The pope, the expression adds is ready to receive rep presentatives of dis sident church with open arms as the Roman church has always longed for the unification of al Christian religions Pope Leo XIII. it Is pointed out, was deeply interested in the question and wrote two famous ensyclicals on the subject of the unification of the Christian churches

Cairo, Egypt, April 13.-In two days of rioting here, ending at noon Saturday, aS persons were killed and 100 wounded, 1t was announced in today's official comniunique. Armenians were chiefly the objects of the mob's attacks, and seven of those killed were of that nationality.

The police report SS killed and 100 wounded during the 4s hours ended at noon yesterday. The killed include seven Armenians and four Greeks. Mili- tary meausres were enforced and the night passed off quietly.
 Disturbances occurred in Alexandra yesterday. There was a collision in the morning between troops and rioters in the Harms quarters in which three were killed and six wounded seriously. In an Armenian disturbance in the afternoon the mob consistently attacked the troops, who were obliged to fire, killing r. in- cluding a number of the ring leaders, and wounding number of others. The public are warned to be in their houses by s o'clock in the evening.
 Five British soldiers. including two unarmed Indians, were murdered on Wednesday.

COSI BASjS -OE HAiEJ
 '.The attitude of the railroad admin
 istration with respect to the relation be-
 tween water and rail competitive rates is
 that the rates should bear relation to
 each other proportionate to the cost and
 desirability of the service by the respec-
 tive routes and methods of transporta-
 ton. There is no doubt that in the past relations between the rail and water
 rates have not always been determined
 on this basis, and that application of
 this principle will necessitate modified
 tion of some existing rate and adjust mentl
 At present the principal district in which the question presents itself is the Mississippi valley. There is now being heard before the interstate commerce commission a case originally involving rates between Memphis and points in southern Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Kansas. in which the issues have be- come extended until it involves the rates generally between points on the east bank of the southern Mississippi and points in the territory above described and be- tween points in that territory; also the relationship of rates between the river towns and rates from points on the river to interior points. The railroad adminis- tration is taking the position in this case that it does not urge the granting of per mission by the interestate commerce com mission for the maintenance of this rate relationship, except as to certain rates which the rail carriers in the central sec I|tion of the country from Chicago to tho | gulf are required to maintain on a lower basis than some intermediate rates in order to meet ocenn competition from the eastern seaboard.

Washington April 1i.--Inand water way transportation of the United States should be co-ordinated more closely with the railway system, and the relationship of rates adjusted in proportion to the cost and desirability of service, said Director General Hines, in a letter to Senator Fletcher and 8 group of senators and representatives interested in water ways The letter, made public today, was in answer to inquires from the members of Congress as to the railroad adminis- trations attitude toward waterways and explained in detail past accomplishments and future plans.
 MT. Hines also proposed that if the rail- roads go back to private control and the railroad administration is disbanded, the inland waterways be placed under gov ernmental agency. "at least through an adequate experimental period
 q deem it highly important to preserve and strengthen in the public interest thu beginnings already made in demonstrat- ing the utility of our inland waterways, said Mir. Hines.
 'I am firm believer in the policy that the great inland waterways of the coun- try can be made economically very use full, and that means should be found for making them of more benefit to the na- tion than they have been in the past. MUST BE CLOSER COOPERATION
 Under the old form of private man. agement, railroads in this country had no substantial interest in acting as feed CTS to the waterways. and, of course there was no other form of feeder avail able. It. therefore, seems to me that in any permanent solution of the railroad problem which may be adopted, it will be necessary to bring about close coop eration between the railroads and water ways, and the first element in this sit uation must be the desire or interest of cooperation and the next facilities for transferring traffic from the inland Wa terways to the railroads, and vice versa.
 Tt is my conviction that water trans portation lines, at least such as are financially and physically equipped to discharge the duties of common carriers, and to effect transfers of traffic on an economically sound basis, should be CO., ordinated and correlated with the whole transportation system of the country. This necessarily implies that there should be no Instructions to an inter- change of traffic between rail and water or terms substantially equal to those be- tw cen rail carriers, and that through billing and through bills of lading should be adopted under such condition between
