None of them suspected that the cause of my trouble They all told me that I had cancer of the stomach, and so weak that I couid not walk any more than a child a v weighed sixty pounds. One day my brother saw in a advertisement of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy. He bought at our drug store and I took it. My family could see a change in he better, so they obtained more and I continued the use of Swamp- regularly. I was so weak and run down that it took considerable time d me up again.

Complete Evacuation by the Czar’s Troops the Chief Feature. Stories of a Desire to Maintain Per- manent Sovereignty Over the Ter- ----ritory Are Disproved by Lat- est Diplomatic Action. Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, April 20.—The Call correspondent obtained to-day a copy of the convention entered into by Russia and China with regard to Manchuria. It is now published for the first time. It provides primarily for the complete evac- uation of Manchuria in fulfillment of the pledge made by Russia when she first oc- cupied that section.of China. In addition it has many other important and inter- esting provisions which establish Rus- sia’s preferential position in the northern part of the empire and will prevent any further question being raised by foreign powers regarding it. The first article states that the Emperor of Russia, “desinng to give another proof of his love of peace and friendly senti- ments toward his Majesty, the Emperor of China, notwithstanding that the first attacks - were ‘made from Manchurian frontier points upon peaceful Russian set- tlements, consents to the re-establishment of the rule of the Chinese empire and re- turns to the Chinese Government the right to establish their government and administrative power, such as existed be- fore the occupation of this territory by the Russian troops.” Government officers say that this ar- ticle conclusively vindicates Russia of the charges so.persistently circulated by the European press—that she proposed to maintain permanent sovereignty over Manchuria. Russia agrees by the treaty to evacuate Manchuria within _eighteen months, the first six months to withdraw from the southwestern part of the Muk- den province; within the next six months, the remaining part of Mukden province and the province of Ghirin, and within the following six months the province of Kheyluntsian: OBLIGATIONS FOR CHINA. In view of the necessity of warding off in future the possibility of a repetition of the disorders in which Chinese troops stationed in the provinces participated, an agreement is to be reached as to the strength and distribution of Chinese troops in Manchuria until the province has been evacuated. After complete evac- uation the Chinese Government will have the right to decide upon the strength of the troops stationed in Manchuria, sub- ject to“increase or decrease after timely information of the Russian Government, “as it is understood,” to quote the articie, “that the maintenance of troops in undue | numbers in the above mentioned region would immediately bring about the in- cregse of Russian forces in the neighbor- ifig" districts and would~thus involve a very disadvantageous increase of expen- ditire for warlike necessities for both countries,” China _agrees to strictly execute the terms of the contract entéred upon with the Russo-Chinese.

For | poliz rvice and the maintenance of or- der outside of the territories set apart for the Chinese Eastern Rajlway, there will ! Emperor of China, a Chinese mounted and | foot police guard at the local governor- ‘Article 1V of the treaty provides: “The Russian Government consents to return to the owners the railway lines of Shang- hai, Huan, Inkoy, Sinmintin, occupied and protected by Russian troops from the be- ginning of September, 1900. In view of this | the Government of his Majesty the Em- peror of China promises should there be a necessity .of protecting the above-men- tioned lines, this obligation would be im- posed upori the Chinese Government alone. No other Government is to be invited to take part in the protection, construction and exploitation of these lines, or allow foreign powers to occupy -the territory evacuated by the Russians.” DISPOSITION OF RAILWAYS. The above mentioned railway lines should be finished and exploited in strict adherence to the agreement made tween Russia and Great Britain on April 16, 1899, and to the agreement made on September 28, 1898, with a private com- pany with regard to a-loan for the con- struction of the above-mentioned lines, and with adherence. to the obligations taken upon itself by this company, name- 1y, not to enter into possession or {n any way whatever administer the lines of | Shanghai, Huan, Inkoy and Sinmintin. “Should there take place in the future a continuation of railway lines in South- ern Manchuria or construction of branch lines to them or erection of a bridge at Inkoy or the removal of the existing ter- | minus of the railway.line, all these ques- tions must previously be agreed upon by | the Russian and Chinese Governments. In consequence of the fact that the ex- pense incurred by the Russian Govern- ment for the construction and exploitation | of the railway lines of Shanghai, Huan, Inkoy, Sinmintin were not included 1in| the total sum of damages—the Chinese Govarnment shall compensate the same after deliberating with the Russian Gov- ernment on the sum to be returned.” Bakersfield Excursion.

AT SMITH’S COURT-MARTIAL. MANILA, April 20.—When the trial by court-martial of General Jacob H. Smith | was resumed to-day Pedro Bella, a_ bov “mascot” of Company E of the Ninth Infantry, commanded by Captain Thomas W. Connell, who was massacred by the Samar natives at Balangiga, testified that he saw Captain Connell's death wound given by a boy of 15. The witness saw several other boys of the same age among the natives who took part in the massacre and thought he could, himself, use a bolo against a soldier. Captain Waldo E. Myer, General Smith's adjutant general, sald he had been closely in touch with all the move- ments and knew General Smith’s plans, purposes and feeling at every phase. He added that on the general's arrival the coast was deserted and he saw ‘the same towns filled with people when he left. But 80 far as the people of Samar were con- cerned he met only one man worthy of respect, who was sincere, patriotic and honorable. He must admit, however, that the man with this qualification was born at Marinduque of Tagalog ancestry. First Lieutenant Van de Man of the Twenty-first Infantry, who had charge of the military information bureau, de- scribed from the records the treachery of the natives of Samar. DATTOS DESIRE PEACE. General George A. Davis has arrived at Lake Lano, island of Mindanao, and has had an interview with nine dattos who were desirous of peace and friendship. Pappou, one of these dattos, said he di not write the deflant letter’ received by Americans at the time of the mas- MRS.

Although she had not been in robust health for some time and though she deeply lamented the death of her son, Hugh Tevis, which occurred while he was on his honeymoon in Japan, there was no reason for the family to anticipate the sad ending of the gentle life.

He asserted that it was written in the house of a priest from Taisacia, while he was sick. he priest fled on the ap- pearance cf the troops. General Davis says the policy of wait- ing for a strong force, showing friendship to the natives and paying for supplies is having good results. Captain Leo Febiger of the Seventeenth Infantry is clearing the trails. He gets more work out of the Moros than any one else. When the reinforcements reach Samar the Americans will be near Datto Bayan, and may invite the chief to a friendly conference and request him to deliver up the murderers of American soldiers, who are known to be among his forces. If Re refuses the troops will de- molish his fort. Not a shot has been fired since Lieuten- ant Colonel Frank D. Baldwin of thé Fourth Infantry captured the fort. The Moros are now impressed with American valor. They previously thought them- selves {nvincible, the Spaniards not hav- ing reached the lake. Tt is believed that when the campaign is concluded the most satisfactory conditions will exist, that the natives will be friendly and will fast as- similate with the ways of the Americans.

WASHINGTON, April 20.—Under a spe- clal order which allowed there hours for | debate, but which cut off all opportunity | of amendment, the House to-day passed an omnibus public bullding bill, which will distribute $17,405,450 among 184 cities. As the bill covers into the treasury $1 000, the total amount carried by the bill is reduced to that extent. The bill provides for seventy-seven new buildings and.sites, six buildings on sites already purchased, seventeen bulidings on donated sites and fifty-eight increases in appropriations for buildings already au- | thorized. It also provides for the pur- chase of sixteen sites. The majority for the bill was 80 over- whelming that only nine members backed | a demand for the ayes and noes on the | passage of the bill. There was some crit- icism of the method by which it was pro- posed to pass the bill, without opportunity for amendment, which Mercer, chairman | of the committee, answered by stating that if the bill had been subject io amend- ment the appropriations carried by it! ‘would have been increased to $60,000,000. | The consideration of the agricultural | appropriation bill was resumed, but only seven pages were disposed of.

Legislators Begin Inquiry Into Cuban Sugar Ques- tion. WASHINGTON, April 29. — President Havemeyer and other officials of the American Sugar Company will be asked to appear and give testimony before the sub-committee of the Senate Committee on Relations with Cuba, appointed to in- quire into the question of Cuban sugar holdings, and they will be the first wit- nesses called. The sub-committee held its first meeting to-day with all the members of the com- mittee—Senators Platt of Connecticut, Burnham and Teller—present. The dis- cusgion was a very general one, but no definite result, beyond that of deciding to call the trust officials, was reached. The suggestion that they should be summoned was made by Senator Platt, who said that for obvious reasons the inquiry should be- gin with them. Senator Teller replied that the proposition met with his entire approval. No time was fixed for the next meeting, but it was agreed that it should take place as soon as the witnesses could be secured. o names of other witnesses were mentioned, but Senator Teller said he would from time to time make sugges- tions in that respect. He said he had no very extended list and the opinion was generally expressed that the investigatio would not be long-drawn unless me should be summoned from Cuba, in whic case some time might be necessary to se- cure the persons wanted. The committee has not decided whether any Cubans shall be invited to attend, but Teller indicated his purpose to press for their appearance. After the adjournment Senator Platt, chairman of the committee, expressed the opinion that the consideration of the reci- procity bill would not be delayed on ac- count of the proposed inquiry, but that the committee would probably proceed with its work independent of the investi- gation. GUNNER CHARLES MORGAN OBTAINS A COMMISSION WASHINGTON, April 29.—Gunner Charles Morgan of the navy has at last succeeded in attaining the new commis- sioned grade of chief gunner. Morgan was recently examined by a board of chief gunners to determine his fitness for promotion, and the board reported ti while he was mentally and professionally qualified his general reputation was such that his promotion could not be recom- mended on moral grounds. Secretary Long determined to give Mor- gan a second chance, and another board was _appointed to examine him. This hoard has reported that Morgan is men- tally, professionally and merally eligible, and 'its recommendation that he be ad- vanced to_the grade of chief gunner was approved by Secretary Long to-day. ‘hese confirmations by the Senate are announced: Willlam H.
