SUBSCRIPTION---85.00 PER ANNUM RESENTS RIS ACTION Nicaragua Objects to Interference by American Consul. ENDS ATTACK ON AMAPALA| Washington Officials Asked by What Right Their Representative Acts for Salvador In the Present Central American Trouble. Washington, April 4.—Mr. Corea, | the Nicaraguan minister, called at the | state department and inquired as to what authority Philip I. Brown, secre- tary of the American legation to Guatemala and Honduras, has for his interference with the bombardment of Amapala, Honduras, by the Nie- araguan forces. Mr. Corea’s advices from his home government show that Mr. Brown went to Amapala by the | courtesy of the Nicaraguan officers, | assuring them that he hoped to per- suade President Bonilla of Honduras to surrender, thus ending the bom- bardment of the city. The Nicaragu- ans consented to cease firing for twenty-four hours. Before that time ! Mr. Brown went to La Union, Salva- | dor, and from there he directed a pro- | test on behalf of Salvador against the | renewal of the bombardment of Ama- pala, saying that Salvador would re- gard such action as a declaration of war by Nicaragua against the Salva- dorean republic. It is the desire of the Nicaraguan | government to learn by what right Mr. Brewn Is acting for Salvador. Such interference on his part is a radical sten and all Central American repub- lics are much interested in the out- | come. State department officlals have refused to disclose what Mr. Brown’s instructions have been. BOMBARDMENT AT AN END. Nicaraguan Gunboats Cease Firing on | Amapala. Washington, April 4—President Bo-| nilla of Hoaduras is still surrounded at Amapala, far as the state de-| partment knows, but the bombardment of the town by Nicaraguan gunboats has _ceased, according to dispatches regelyea rrom pninp K. srown, secre- tary to the American The United States cruiser Chicago and the gunboat Princeton are both known to be lying near the island on which Amapala Is situated and the presence of these two American war- ships is supposed to be largely re- sponsible for the halt in the bombard- ment. Mr. Brown’s dispatches do not state whether President Bonilla has been offered a refuge on the American war- ship, nelther do they state whether he has taken any action in behalf of the United States government to protect the fugitive president. SUBSCRIBED BY FOUR MEN. Where Harriman Secured Funds for Republicans, .- New York, April 4—The Inside facts concerning the $200,000 fund which Mr. Harriman raised in the campaign of 1904 at the request of President Roosevelt have been given by a finan- cial man of International standing who was made familiar with the details at the time. He said there were four subseribers to the fund, each of whom gave $50, 000. They were, he said, E. H. Harri- man, Hamilton McK. Twombly, J. Pierpont Mrgan and the fourth, to the- best of his recollection, was Will- lam K. Varderbilt. He cas not abso- lutely certaln about Mr. Vanderbilt being a subscriber, but he was positive about the other three. The $200,000 was turned over, he sald, to B. B. Odell, Jr.,, then chair- man of the Republican state commit- tee. Mr. Bliss, he sald, unintention- ally blundered, as he refused to put the Depew label on the $200,600 when he paid it over to Mr. Odell and the latter received it in ignorance of the condition relating to Depew. GRAFT ON CANAL ZUNE. Congressman Rainey Criticises Com- missary Department. New York, April 4—After spending eight days in the canal zone Congress- man H. T. Rainey of Illinols has re- turned pleased and enthusiastic over the work on the {sthmus, but indignant. with the management of the commis- sary department. A careful investigation of the com- missariat would, Mr. Rainey believes, bring to light a scandal “second only to the meat scandal of the Spanish- American war.” The head of the de- partment, he said, was overworked and details left to subordinates were carelessly handled. Mr. Rainey said that he would prove that the lunch served to the congres- slonal party, which was supposed to consist of the same menu served daily to canal workers at a cost of 30 cents a man, was In reality ordered five days In advance and cost $1.65 a plate. Shoes that could be bought in the United States for $3 a pair were sold by the commissariat, the congressman declared, at $8 a pair. Continuing, the congressman said: “The day President Roosevelt vis- ited the isthmus he was served with a ‘30-cent’ meal. I found out that it was generally understood that the pres- ident would eat at one of the dining- halls so all were ready for him and had ready an unusually well served Tunch.” BULLE T I N« Great Northern Railway HELP BUILD UP YOUR STATE Ghe Great Northern Railway issues from time to time bulletins and bgokiets tell- ing of the advantages of Minnesota as a home state.

SOUGHT SENATE SEAT Real Reason for Harriman’s In- terest in 1904 Election. Guntemmata snd Hontoms, =" **|HOPED TO SUCCEED DEPEW Additional Statement From the White House Regarding the Controversy Between the President and the Rail- road Magnate. Washington, April 4—It is authori- latively declared at the White House that the real reason for Mr. E. H. Harriman’s interest in the election of the state ticket in New York in 1904, reference to which was made in the communications which passed be- ‘ween him and the president, was that he desired to advance his own ambi- tions. It is asserted that Mr. Harrl- man wanted the position of senator now filled by Mr. Depew and that this was the reason why he was anxious to have him appointed ambassador to Paris. The inferences from Mr. Har- riman’s attitude, according to the statement made at the White House, were that if Senator Depew could be Induced to go to Paris that Governor Higgins was prepared to appoint Har- riman to the vacancy. REFUSE TO DISCUSS IT. Politicians Will Not Comment on Roosevelt-Harriman Affair. New York, April 4—While the con- troversy which has arisen between President Roosevelt and E. H. Harri- man, following the publication of a letter written by E. H. Harriman to Biduey Webster regarding the collec- tion of a campaign fund by Mr. Harri- man durirg the presidential campaign In 1904, 18 attracting widespread atten- tion politicians and others who were closely connected with the campaign do not show a disposition at this time to discuss the subject. Senator Chauncey M. Depew was the only one who would add anything to the leiters and statements made by the president and Mr. Harriman. He I8 quoted as saying: “My knowledge of the $200,000 cam- paign fund was all gained after the oceurrence to which Mr. Harriman re- fers. I knew nothing about it at the time and it would be improper for me to mention any names in any way. I may say, however, that the money did not come from corporations, nor from Individuals whose corporation affilia- tions were such that they had any- thing to expect from the administra- tion in return. They were men of weaith, who necessarily had certain corporation connections, but these did not move them in contributing the money.” Cornelius N. Bliss was asked if he had anything to say about the sitna- tlon developed by the exchange of statements between Mr. Harriman end President Roosevelt. “You can’t galvanize ancient his- tory—or ancient fiction,” said Mr. Bliss. “I have kept still for two years and I do not see any profit in saying anything now. What has passed is of the past =nd that’s an end to it.” HARRIMAN STANDS PAT. Will Not Withdraw Statements Made in Recent Letter. New York, April 4—The publication of the letter from E. H. Harriman to Sidney Webster and the correspond- ence between President Roosevelt and Representative Sherman and the pres- ldent and Mr. Harriman was given the widest discussion in financial and political eircles. The statement given out by Mr. Harriman in reply to the Roosevelt-Sherman correspondence was eagerly read, especially in Wall street, where Mr. Harriman’s position as a leader in the railroad world has glven him such prominence. Mr. Harriman himself was not at his office 88 early as usual. 1t was said that he was In consultation with several of his friends as to the present aspects of the situation, presumably with a view to defining his future attitude and course of procedure should the president make a rejoinder to his lat- est statement. Not the least Interesting portion of Mr. Harriman’s presentation of his side of the controversy was his state- ment that he could not withdraw any- thing said in the letter to Sidney Web- ster, in which he declared that it was At thepresident’s solicitation that he raised $200,000 for use in New York state in the campaign of 1904 and that the president agreed, “if found neces- sary,” to appoint Senator Depew to the ambassadorship to France. It was declared in banking circles that light could be shed on the question of campaign contributions in 1904 if the books of the national Republican com- mittee were thrown open. Harry 8.

New York, April 4—It is announced that the finance committee of the United States Steel corporation has authorized the construction of the new steel plant at Duluth. It is expected that the mew plant will cost about $10,000,000. The site already ihas been accepted and work will be be- gun at once. The plant will manufac- ture steel rails, structural shapes and bars. TRIAL OF ABRAHAM RUEF. Legal- Battle Promises to Last for Weeks. San Franclsco, April 4—A legal bat- tle that promises to last for weeks and Wwhich is expected to be in a measure pivotal for all the criminal proceed- ll;?s growing out of the grand jury bribery fnvestigation, was begun in earnest when Abraham Ruef, San Francisco’s indicted political leader, was placed on trial in Judge Dunne’s department of the superlor court on the charge of extorting large sums of Take one teaspoonful of the following simple mix- ture after your meals and again before going to bed, viz: fluid Extract Dande- lion one-half ounce, Com- pound Kargon one ounce, Compound Syrup Sarsa- parilla three ounces, Get the ingredients from some g-od prescription pharmacy and mix' them yourself by shaking in a bottle, The kidneys often be- come clogged up and inac- five, either from overwork or change of weather, and cause the back and sides to pain and ache. This is said to readily relieve almostany lame back; also overcome the worst forms of rheuma- tism, by toning up the kid- neys and forcing them to filter the uric acid or rheu- matism poisons from the biood. Cut this out and save it. money from local French restaurant keepers under the threat that unless paid he and Mayor Schmitz would pre- vent the remewal of their liquor I cense by tke police commission. When court adjourned at the con- clusion of- the afternoon session one talesman had. been examined and passed without challenge by both sides and a second was under exami- nation by the defense. The first is J. R. Bradstreet, a weather strip manu- facturer. Hiram W. Johnson, a special coun- sel for the prosecution, and Henry Ach of counsel for Ruef conducted the ex- amination of the talesmen. Hope for Beneficial Results. Madrid, April 4—The preparations for King Alfonso’s journey to Carta- gena April 6 to meet King Edward have heen completed. Government circles here regard the meeting of the two kings as likely to improve the understanding between Great Britain, Spain, France and Portugal relative to Morocco. Mother and Daughter Perish, Milwaukee, April 4—Ginnel Fischel- to Caraggio and her six-year-old daugh- ter were burned to death when a boardinghouse kept by her husband, Augusto Caraggio, was burned to the ground. Nine boarders and the hus- band of the woman escaped. The origin of the fire is a mystery. BRIEF BITS "OF NEWS. St. Paul's new auditorium was formally opened Tuesday night with a concert, reception and ball. Official returns show the election of D. E. Cornell, Rep., as mayor of Kan- sas City, Kan,, by a plurality of 1,218 over W. W. Rose, Dem. Four hundred teamsters went on strike in Boston Wednesday to en- force a demand for an increase of $1 a week in their pay and a reduction in their hours of work. A bill making it unlawful for brew- ers and wholesale liquor men to own saloons has passed both houses of the Nebraska legislature and will be signed by the governor. The estimates in the official press of Roumania place the material dam- age due to the agrarian revolt at $6,000,000, but the landowners claim that the losses incurred are much greater. Emperor William does not approve of the movement for holding a world’s exposition in Berlin during 1913, the twenty-fifth year of his reign, there- fore the project will doubtless be abandoned. Count von Eulenburg, Emperor Will- iam’s chief court marshal, who is in constant attendance on his majesty, says he has not heard of anything tending to confirm the report the em- peror intended sending his fifth son, Prince Oscar, to Harvard.

Tralnmen and Conductors on West: ern Lines WIIl Be Averted by Com- promise Agreement on Demands. Chicago, April 4—Commissioner Knapp of the Interstate commerce commission and Commisgioner Neill of the United States labor commis- slon, who have for some days been acting as medlators’ between the Western rallroads and the members of the organizations of trainmen and conductors, have submitted to the men the ultimatum of the railroads. Before. entering the conference both commissfoners ‘declined to state the nature of the final proposition of the rallroads. It is generally believed that the managers have made a slight concession, but this could not- be con- firmed. The opinion is growing that a strike of the two organizations will be avert. ed, although there is no positive as- sertion to this effect credited to either slde of the controversy. Before going into conference neither of the commissioners nor Chiefs Mor- rissey and Garretson would discuss the probable outcome of the meet- ing. The commissioners are to sub- mit the last proposition from the rail- roads and if this is not accepted it is believed that they will make an offer for arbitration under the Erdman act.

The private examination of Thaw by the lunacy commission was com- pleted at 3:37 p. m. The commission remained in session to conmsider its report after the examination of Thaw had been completed.

RHEUMATISM Old ‘Mr. Rheumatism hangs on tight and bites and pinches when he takes hold.. It’s quite a job to shake him off. It’s hard to be- lieve that all the pain and trouble he causes comes from suchalittle thing. Just a tiny bit of acid in the blood the kidneys haven’t taken care of. -"'But the kidneys ;ren’tdto blahm:l; used to this LAWRENGE TUSCANT ., g1 S0 Novw I know better. It's that over worked and over crowded stomach giving the kidneys part of its work and the kidneys can’t do it. I found this out with Cooj New Discovery. It puts the stomach in shape, that's all it does, and yet I have seen thousands of people get rid of rheumatism by taking it. That is why I am positive that rheumatism is caused by stomach, trouble. Here is a sample of letters I get every day on the subject. ‘‘For a long time I have been a victim of sciatica and inflammatory rheumatism, been too great to de- scribe. For weeks I lay helpless with every joint in my body so tender and sore that I could not bear to move. The slight- est touch would cause me the greatest agony. Several doctors treated me but they failed entirely. I tried many reme- dies but nothing seemed to reach my case, so I continued to lay helpless. My neys and stomach were “affected also. I could eat but little, digest less and gradu- ally my strength left. Ilost flesh rapidly.’’ “‘I began the use of the famous Cooper medicines of which I heard so much. To my surprise and delight; I improved im- mediately, and after using several bottles I felt like another péfson. My strength’ and appetite returned. The pain and sore- ness left me and now I feel better than I have for months.’”; Lawrence Tuscany, }wlfz Aldrich Ave., North, Minaeapolis, inn, 8 We sell Mr, Cooper’s celebrated propa- rations. 2 X d E.
