Six years ago I had a severe attack of Inflammatory Rheumatism. I waslaid up in bed for six months, and the doctors I had did me no good. They changed med- icines every week and nothing they pre- scribed seemed to help me. Finally I be- gan the use of 8. S. S. My knee and elbow Joints were swollen terribly, and at one time my joints were so swollen and pain- ful that T could not close them when opened. I was so bad that I could not move knee or foot.

RUSSIAN SHIPS ARE TIED UP London, Oct. 28.—Orders have been issued and acknowledged by Vice Admiral Rojestven- sky for the Russian squadron to remain at Vigo until the conclusion of the present Russo-British This eliminates what was regarded here as one of the most dangerous features of the situation, namely, the possibility of a premature clash hetween British and Russian fleets. London, Oct. 28.—The Associated Press is authorized to state that in principle a satisfac- tory settlement of the Anglo-Russian dispute has been reached. Several details remain to be ar- ranged, but the proposal to refer the matter to a court of inquiry has been aceepted in principle. FIGHTING IS RESUMED ARTILLERY BATTLE RAGING ON SHAKHE RIVER DIRECTLY | SOUTH OF MUKDEN. RUSSIANS ATTACKING THE JAPANESE WEATHER HAS AGAIN CLEARED UP AND IS FAVORABLE FOR OPERATIONS. Mukden, Oct. 28.—Fighting began at 10 p. m. southeast of Mukden. The Japanese have advanced to the village of Jerdagan, which they are reported to have captured after a fight lasting all night. There was an artillery fight on the night of Oct. 26 on the north shore of the Shakhe river, directly south of Mukden. The cannonading, which was heavy, was continued Thursday. The Russians are attacking the Japanes~. Tf unsuccessful it is believed they wiil continue the fighting right up to th:| walls of Mukden. The weather has again cleared u: ' and is much better for active opers-| tions. The days are warm and sunn, but the nights are cold and some : the Russian troops whose winter over- coats have not arrived are suffering from the“told. Suspicious movements of the Japa- nese have been observed west of the railroad. The Chinese say positively that the Japanese are preparing to turn the Russian right or break through a vulnerable point of the lines. ADDRESS TO KUROPATKIN. Czar Expresses Confidence in His New Chief Commander. St. Petersburg, Oct. 28.—Two impe- rial rescripts are published in the Offi- cial Messenger, the first one being cov- ered by Viceroy Alexieff’s order of the day announcing the appointment of General Kuropatkin to the chief com- mand of the Russian forces in the East, The second is addressed to General Kuropatkin as commander-in-chief of all the military and naval forces at the scene of war. It concludes with these words: “Your military experience, strength-| ened by your action in Manchuria, makes me feel confident that you will break the obstinacy of the enemy’s forces at the head of your glorious army and will thereby assure to Rus- sia peace in the Far East.” Firing Lines Face Each Other. ‘With the Russian Eastern Army, via Mukden, Oct. 28.—The heavy firing Wednesday night and Thursday morn- ing was only the artillery exchanging shots. Both firing lines are now fac- ing each other without outposts. President Is Forty-six. ‘Washington, Oct. 28.—This is the anniversary of President Roosevelt’s birth. He is forty-six years old.

The situation growlng out of the action of the Russian squadron in sinking the British trawlers is de- scribed in the day’s dispatches as acute, but still capable of a satisfac- tory adjustment. The eagerly awaited report of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky has been re- ceived by his emperor, but his ex- planation only serves to increase the mystery and throw an additional ser- sational feature into the affair. He says that he was attacked in the dark- ness by two torpedo craff which came from the direction of the fishing fleet and that if the fire he directed against the torpedo boats struck the trawlers it was accidental and he expresses his ‘warm regret at ihe occurrence. Russian dispatches place much stress upon the 1eport as giving an entirely new aspect to the situation and point out that the skipper of the trawler Moulmein, in an interview on Sunday night, said that two torpedo vessels approached the fleet and that' the firing followed. The report of Carr, the admiral of the fishing fleet, how- ever, made 10 mention of this incident Ambassador Benckendorfr, in an in- terview with Lord Lansdowne; took exception to the British demand for the punishment of the offending offi- cers, maintaining that suc® punisi- ment couid only be taken on the spon- taneous initiative of the emperor and that such a.demand from a foreign It is the British cabinet will be called shortly and at this the question ofi Great Britain’s adherence to or reces- sion from this demand will be de- cided. From the best information it is be- lieved that no time limit has been fixed by Great Britain for compliance with- her demands, but the significant State- ment is made_ that it is generally un- derstood in London that the passage of Gibraltar by the Russian fleet wili be barred pending a satisfactory reply. In the meantime unconcealed activity prevails in British naval circles. The Russian squadron remains at the Spanish port of Vigo, where it put in Wednesday. London, Oct. 28.—Up to this hour there is no sign of an end to the dead- lock over the question of the punish- ment of the Russian officers respon- sible for the North sea tragedy, so the Associated Press understands. As re- gards the British demands for their punishment being an infringement of Russia's sovereignty and rights Am- bassador Benckendorff, in his inter- view with Lord Lansdowne during the day, maintained that such punishment must be taken on the spontaneous in- itiative of the emperor’s government and that a demand from a foreign power that Russia shall punish her officers cannot be entertained. In any event it was impossible for the Rus- sian government to mete out punish- ment without having before it a state- ment of facts as presented by its own officers. There is no indication of Lord Lans- downe withdrawing his demand and, though the dispute has not yet reached an ultimatum stage, it is likely to do so if the day passes without some recognition of punishment in principle by the emperor’s government. Rus- sia’s continued failure to comply with the British demand in this respect creates gloomier feelings in diplomatic circles, which had shared with Lord Lansdowne the impression that Russia wouid eventually agree to this point. ‘While no time limit for the receipt of Russia’s reply has been fixed it is generally understood that the route of the Russian squadron past Gibraltar will be barred by the channel squad- Ton, ~ “On Honor” That’s how Kaufman Garments are made ever thread and fibre of the fabric, knowledge, skill and care into the tailoring and finishing—intelligence and expert workmanship throughout. y The Kaufman way of tailoring is simply the merchant tailor’s way improved—art tailor- The manufacturers can afford to engage higher-salaried designers and workmen than any localtailor.

STOCKS . SHOVELED ON THE MARKET DECIDED WEAKNEéS IN PRICES EXTENDED MORE OR LESS TO THE ENTIRE LIST. New York, Oct. 28.—The acute crisis in the relations between Great Britain and Russia was responsible for a bad break in the prices of stocks. Very heavy blocks were thrown upon the market of all the prominent issues, the opening transactions running from 1,000 to 7,000 shares, the latter in Rock Island. The weakness extended to the whole market, but the leading interna- tionally listed stocks were most con- spicuous, owing to the added pressure of selling for foreign account. Few of the prominent stocks escaped an opening loss of a point and in some cases the decline extended to two or over. Pressed Steel Car was forced down 1Y%, with the added weight of disappointment over the passing of the dividend. I strings of 1,000 share blocks and upwards were dealt in in many stocks after the opening and the opening losses were consider- ably extended. - The market showed considerable disorder and excitement. London sold heavily in this market, unloading fully 50,000 shares in the first half hour, according to reports. Much of this was doubtless for ac- count of other European centers such as Berlin, Frankfort and Amsterdam. The West and in fact all sections of this country sold the list at the outset. Commission houses had a flood of sell- ing orders and reports have it that some weakly margined accounts were sold out without previous warning to holders., Wall street was more acutely affect- ed by the warlike outlook than any other market in the world and stocks were shoveled out practically without any cessation during the whole morn- ing. The strength in the wheat mar- ket, the sharp advance in foreign ex- change and further engagements of gold for export were accepted as cor- roboration ¢f the alarming advices of the threatened outbreak of hostilities. During the morning practically all of the acti high priced speculative stocks were forced down between two and three points. The reassuring pri- vate advices received by great inter- national banking houses were ignored for a time, but they served to reassure’ sentiment ultimately. A steady re-} covery in prices of stocks then set in | and early in the afterncon only frac- tional remnants were left of the ex- treme losses of the morning. A e s i FIRED ON SWEDISH STEAMER. Ships of Baltic Squadron Busy on Night of Oct. 21. London, Oct. 28.—The correspondent of Lloyds at Gefle, Sweden, telegraphs that the Swedish steamer Alderbaran, from Hull, reports that she was fired at by a supposed Russian warship in the Skagerack at 10 o'clock in the evening of Oct. 21, but sustained no damage. 4 &
