DEADLOCK CONTINUES
American Consulate at Newcastle Not Yet Opened and Business Interests Wonder Why.

Newcastle, Eng, Dec. 3.-British mrchants and shipping interests here are perpleNed over the continued deadlock between Great Britain and the United States on the question of reopening the American consulate.
 One of Ambassador HarVey's last acts before leaving England was to let it be known that the two governments had reached an amicabe solution of the controversy.
 II is understood that the next move rests with Washington. The only re- maining condition for the reeSta blish- ment of the consulate is believed to be the assignment of Consul Russell Nj. Brooks to point within the Brit ish empire other than Belfast where, is is understood, the United States de- sires him to go. Ostensibly Foreign Secretary Curzon takes the view that Belfast is too near Mir. Brooks old post and to the United Kingdom.
 The present deadlock between the two governments is causing the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars weekly to Newcastle business houses. Further pressure is being brought to bear on both British and American officialse in London to settle the con- troversy.

New German Oil
 Formula Rubs Out
 Rheumatic Pains
Remarkable Discovery Promises Re
 lief to Rheumatic Sufferers

German chemistry that has given to the world the boon of Aspirin for the relief Of headache pain, and Novocaine for painless dentistry has now come forward with another scientific discovery that promises to make rheumatic pain thing of the past for thousands who have suffered terrible tortures.
 A new combination of certain oils has been discovered. which produces aclear amber liquid that affords immediate relief from pain in many instances. It is so penetrating that it disappears within a few seconds, so that is must be entirely absorbed by the body tissue. Even in the most advanced and stubborn cases the use of this remarkable oil has shown as tonishing improvement at once in many cases. Tired muscles regain life, creaking joints with the pain all gone became supple. and the annoying twinges cease.
 Rheumatism, in many cases, is due to internal abscesses, such as a blind pus pocket in a tooth, which gives of poisons. These poisons are carried by the blood to the muscles and joints and this new oil is de- signed to neutralize these pain-caus- ing poisons.
 So astonishing have been the results from the use of this oil that the Amer ican distributors have authorized local druggists to dispense it to rheumatic sufferers in this city. with a positive written guarantee. signed by them- selves to return the full purchase price of the first bottle if the rheuma- tice pains are not wonderfully reliev- ed. All who suffer from rheumatic pains should take advantage of this liberal offer. Unless you get relief from the very first bottle, your drug gist will return your money. It is called Buhler Oil, and can be had at most good druggists such as The Fair Store, Malinowski & O'Brien, The Clark X Brainerd Co. Miller Hanson Drug O., The Dickinson Drug Co.

Schenectady, N.

 An employe working in the base ment was unable to extinguish the blaze, which, he said, started near the fuse box.
 He warned clerks and customers on the first floor, then turned in an alarm. Nearly score of clerks and cus- toners, trapped on the second floor fled to the roof and were carried to safety by firemen.
 Children were seated along the curbing near the store soon after the fire started sobbing because they thought that the Santa Claus with whom they had been conversing in the store had gone up in flames. Their fears were allayed when he was pointed out to them sitting on the edge of a nearby roof, watching his stock of Christmas toys being lapped up by the fire.

Beuthen, Silesia, Dec. 1S.-Six po- lice officials and IS other persons were sentenced in the criminal court here today on terms of from one year to three and one-half years in the penitentiary for conspiring to facili- tate the clandestine immigration into Germany of Polish Jews unable to ob- tain passports.
 The trial revealed an elaborate or gani1ation with headquarters in War saw whence the intending emigrants were smuggled across the upper Sile- sian border in small parties with the connivance of bribed frontier officials. The prosecution stated that during the first six months of the present year tens of thousands of Jews had thus been smuggled into Germany for a cash consideration.
 The funds of the organization. amounting to T50.000 marks, which were said to represent only one months takings, were confiscated. The smuggling business went on at an increasing rate until July, when the holding up of one party led to the disclosure of the organizations &C., tivities.
