ON DISPOSITION
 OF THE GERMAN CABLES

Washington, Feb. 1.-The information al communications conference convoked at the state department after an interim of two months. adjourned today without reaching a decision on the disposition. of the German cables. mother session will be held next Tuesday.
 F Representatives of France, Great Brit ain, Italy and Japan requested further postponement of the discussion in order that final instructions might be obtain ed by cable from the respective govern ments. Since all the delegates which represented the allied governments re- turned to their. homes after the adjourn ment of the conference in December. the four powers were represented at today's meeting by their ambassadors or charg es.
 Ambassador Jusserand informed the conference that on account of the change in the French ministry since the com munications conference last met, it had been difficult for him to obtain instruc- tions as to whether the attitude of the government had altered toward the allo- cation of the cables.
 American officials have stated that the attitude of France and Japan was re- sponsible for the blocking of settlement last fall and 1t Is hoped by officials here that with the new instructions which are being asked for by the allied represent atives, an agreement fnay be reached within the next few weeks.
 Advices received today in official cir. cles assert that newspapers in Japan were forbidden to print reports of the sessions of the communications confer ence held here last fall.

And Backaehe Stepped After . shere Treatment with FRUIT -A.TTVES1

Moretown, Vermont, March 27th 1918.
 T am warranted in having the strongest faith in 'Fruit-a-tives' after receiving such wonderful benefits from them. For years, I was sufferer with Kidney and, Liver Complaints. My back ached; my liver was sluggish; and my whole system seemed out of order.
 'Fruit-a-tives' was the only remedy to help me. They strengthened the kidneys, made my bowels move regularly and freed me of all the distress caused from the kidney trouble, constipation and indigestion.
 A few weeks treatment with sFruit-a-tives' made me feel as if I had new lease on life, and am glad to make known the great value of these Fruit Liver Tsblets".

IN TRIAL OF
 JUDGE ". P. MeGANNoN

. Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 1o.-Miss Mary E. Neely, counted upon as witness for the state in the second trial of Judge William P McGannon, charged with sec- ons degree murder in connection with the staying of Harold C.. Kagy cn. May [ last; created a sensation when she took the witness stand today and declared re- peatediy that Judge McGannon is inno- cent of the Killing of Kagy.
 After being asked a few. formal ques- tions by County Prosecutor Edward c. Stanton, Miss Neely startled the court room when Stanton asked her:
 Did you see Judge McGannon on or about May, T." by replying:
 q refuse to. answer because in So do- ing,I might disgrace or incriminate my self Judge Mcciannon is not guilty of the murder of Harold C.. Kagy."
 Miss Neely was one of the principal witnesses for the state in the first Mo Cannon trial At that time she testified she followed Judge McGannons automo- bile-to the scene of the shooting on the night. Kagy was shot. Saw McGannon take something from. his pocket Simul- taneously there was a flash of shot and Kagy fell forward.
 : Today she could not remember inci- dents she described at great length at the first trial She refused to answer practically every question that touched upon testimony she gave at that trial that might involve Judge McGannon in the shooting.
 When Prosecutor Stanton appealed to Judge Homer G. Powell that the witness be compelled to answer questions thA court upheld Miss yeely's plea that to answer might tend Ito disgrace or in- criminate't her.
 second sensation came as climax to the Neely. testimony when Mrs. Ella E. Webb. sister of Miss Neely, took the stand and again told of overhearing a conversation in her sisters apartment on the night of November 21 in which Mo- Cannon offered Miss Neely $500 "to go down to the prosecutor and she. she was mistaken"

"I have taken only two boxes of Ehtonic and feel like . new man. It has done me more good than any thing else," writes 0. o. Frappir.
 Eatonic is the modern remedy for acid stomach, ,bloating, food repeat ing and indigestion. It quickly takes up and carries out the acidity and gas and enables the stomach to digest the food naturally. That means not only relief from pain and discomfort but you get the full strength from the food you eat. Big box only costs . trihe with your druggists guarantee.
