Y., on every bottle. —_————— DEATH GRIPS THE CUBAN BILL Complete Failure of the Reciprocity Measure Assured. - Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BURE. 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, June 18.—One after another nineteen Republican beet sugar Serators announced to the Republican conference to-night that they would hold out against Cuban reciprocity and Presi- dent Roosevelt's administration policy tilk the last gun was fired. Then an adjourn= nient was taken until Friday, when fus- ther funeral ceremonies will be held. There was no friction, no sensational statements, only a general deflance of the President and the party. At the close Senators Aldrich and Elkins, leaders of the two factions, walked calmly away arm in arm and engaged in conversation about the prospects of adjournment and the beautiful moon. There was only a perfunctory appeal for the administration and harmony. Sen- ator Aliison, chairman of the caucus, spoke a few words by way of introduc~ tion; Senator Platt of Connecticut pro- duced the Cuban bill, and Senator Alarich called attention to it as an admin- istration measure. The only resuit of the meeting was to point out more plainly that Cuban reciprocity by legisiation is dead, with no hope of resurrection. A vague hope of possible success for reciprocity was inspired to-day by the action of the Republican steering com- mittee in deciding in favor of reporting the bill to the Senate and placing it on the calendar. The eéffect of this would be to insure discussion on the floor of the Senate and bring the measure to a vote. It is the very thing that prominent mem- bers of the party who have not been in- terfering in the Cuba matter one way or the other seek to avoid. The administration Senators to-night, hewever, see little or no probability of the Cuban bill passing. It is freely pre- dicted that at the adjourned conference Friday night the whole matter will be dropped. The beet sugar men are more jubilant than ever. Task of Robbers Made Easy. DENVER, June 13.—A telegram was re- ceived here from the Fourth Assistant Postmaster General at Washington indi- cating that a rigid investigation of the robbery of the postoffice last Monday would ‘be instituted unless the local au- thoritles could by mail throw some new light upon it. It appears that the clerks, instead of placing the registered letters and packages in the vault, left them on a teble, and there were no bars to the win- dow through which the burglars entered. A conservative estimate of the loss is $2000. i Qe estate PORTLAND, Ore., June 18.—At Sheridan last night, Arthur A. Bogart, a messe: for Wells Fargo & Co., was run over and killed by a car. hip is a humorous spectacle when placed beside a modern engine of war. The nation of to-day that uses old-style vessels is backward and is on the retrogade. Just so in clothing! The man who pays big prices for his clothes and has them made to order by some high-priced tailor, just because he did years ago, is not as pro- gressive (unless he can afford it) as the man who pays an economical price for his clothes and gets full value for his money.
