At the palace everything seems
to be coming back to normalcy,

going about attending to their usual
routine duties as they did before

Flu Epidemic Is
Creating Record
Demand For Vicks
375, 900 Jars Every "a Hours
Needed to Keep the Ma
ton Supplied with Vapor-
Salve.
Flu Mild But Widespread

That the public has not forgot
ten the lesson of 1918 is indicated
by its prompt response to the
warning Of health authorities to
combat the flu by keeping free
from colds.
The demand for Vicks VapoRub,
the vaporizing salve which proved
so valuable during the 1918 cpl
demic, has already shattered by
a wide margin all previous rec
ords.
Although the capacity Of - the
Vicks laboratories has been tripled
since 1918, they are once more
operating night shifts to meet the
national emergency.
The present output of more than
$4,000 jars a day almost staggers
the imagination. 1t means that
every so seconds, day and night,
over $500 jars of Vicks are going
out to check the nations colds and
help ward off the flu.
Mild though it is in comparison
with 1918, this years epidemic
has already affected more than a
million persons, and it is appar-
emily still increasing.

FEW VOTES

Results from the pacifist lobby
against the cruiser bill were re-
ported at the Capitol today to
have been scattering and desultory
Senatorial opinion was not sWayed
to any extraordinary extent by the
crusade of the anti-navy groups,
so far as can be learned, and at
the banquet last night, winding up
the pacifist demonstration, the
check-up from the invading dele
cations showed a paucity of con-
versions.
Edward T. Devine. recently re-
signed head of the Graduate School
of the American University, was
toastmaster at the banquet. and
speeches were made by Prof. Parker.
Rabbi Max Heller, of Cincinnati,
and others.
Among the Senators reported to
have shown the greatest resistance
to anti-Cruiser propaganda were
Senators Reed of Pennsylvania,
Reed of Missouri, Copeland of New
York, Sackett of Kentucky, and
Bruce and Tydings of Maryland.
Virtually no positive results were
shown in capturing votes against
the Navy bill when the various
delegates turned in their reports
after their march upon the Capt.
tol.
The lobby. however, is to be con-
tinued, according to Frederick J.
Libby, head of the National Council
to Prevent War, who is one of the
directing forces OF the demonstra-
ton. Members of Congress will be
bombarded with letters and tele-
grams. The buttonholing, per
sonal touch" side of the propa-
ganda, however, has come to an
end.

cold and cough remedy they have
ever tried.

the wonderful elixir, so all you
have to do is to step into the near

for a bottle Of Aspironal and tell
him to serve you two teaspoonsful.

.GREYHOUNDS Of
|. OCEAN RACE
BACK NORTH

HAVANA, Jan. 9 Q.N.S).-Leav-
ing trails of white foam behind
them. two sleek greyhounds of the
ocean, the S. S. President Roose-
welt, now of the Ward Line, and
the British Cunarder Caronia,
steamed northward today for New
York in the second lap of their
race for the passenger traffic be-
tween New York and this port.
Both ships left here yesterday,
the President Roosevelt shortly be-
fore o'clock in the afternoon,
and the Caronia at $50 o'clock
in the evening.
The President Roosevelt won the
race down the Atlantic Coast to this
port bettering the Caronia's time by
almost seven hours. She arrived
here at about l o'clock yesterday
afternoon, more than four hours
ahead of the Caronia, although she
left New York two hours later and
battled a hurricane en- route.
AS the President Roosevelt passed
out Of this harbor on her homeward
trip, she passed the CarOnia just
coming in. Passengers on the
American ships shouted good.natured
jibes at the incoming Britisher.
The Cunardera's captain denied
there was any race. He said he pur-
posely cut down his ships speed
during storms off Cape Hatteras
so as not to cause discomfort to his
passengers. He declared he did not
at any time know the President
Roosevelt's position.
Both ships are scheduled to arrive
in New York on Friday, departing
for Havana again on Saturday.

Name of Prince Carol Linked With Plot, But Military Faction Is Held Responsible.

Vienna. July P,-The peasant government of Rumania, headed by Juliu Maniu, premier. appeared to- day to have weathered successfully a projected military cout detat and to be entrenched more firmly than ever at Bucharest.
 As result of strict censorship, the only direct advices obtainablc were contained in an official govern ment communique. which said:
 Some civil agitators, known for a long time to the authorities as mer without scruple or worth organized a ridiculous plot against the form Of the state, without causing the least disorder.
 'The head conspirator is Former Colonel August Stojka. They could achieve nothing except the adhesion of two officers. Captain Cambra and Lieutenant Georgescu. Some fac tory workmen also joined the poit- ters. All are arrested.
 Situation Under Control
 Investigations are being con- tinued. All sensational reports of disorders are without foundation and perfect quiet reigns in the country. Order is secured in all particulars and the army is as ever at it's post.'
 Other reports, notably those re- ceived from travellers arriving here from the Rumanian capital, were more disqueting, but even they in dicated the government had the sit uation well in hand.
 Link Carol With Plot
 There was some conjecture as to a possible connection of Former Crown Prince Carol with the con- plot. Paris reports said he was pre- pairing to leave that city for Ble1 Jugoslavia. where he would see his son. the boy king Michael while in other quarters there were reports he was expected at Neldes. Southern Slavia, to see his mother, Queen Marie.
 The version of the affair generally accepted here was that a well bol. stercd plot existed to overthrow the Maniu government, reinstating the liberal regime which it busted, or d military dictatorship. The govern rent learned of the plot some time back but refrained from making ar
