WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.—Attorney General Knox returned to the city to- day from his vacation, spent principally at Atlantic City. On Monday he will leave for New York preparatory to sail- ing for Paris next Wednesday on the Oceanic. He had hoped that this trip to France might be avoided, but Attorney Russell, who is now there investigating the Panama canal question for this Gov- ernment, cabled Knox that there are some features of the case that in his opinion should receive the Attorney Gen- eral’s personal attention. As to what hhesc matters are Knox has no informa- an. In speaking of the railroad merger suit the Attorney General said that testimony would be taken in the case beginning at New York next month. When that had been concluded the court would set a time for an oral hearing. Knox said that within a day or two he would formulate instructions to the Government counsel in Quebec as to the next steps to be taken to extradite Greens and Gaynor. The Government, he said, had no thought of abandoning its case. Referring to the published report that he would be selected to succeed Justice Shiras on the Supreme bench, in case of the latter’s early retirement, Knox sald that he had no information upon the gubject. -He declined to indicate whether he would accept the place if it were of- fered to him.

Richards is to resign to en- ter into partnership with Abner McKin~ ley is discredited by Kno: OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Several Changes Are Made in the Postal Service and More Pen- sions Granted.

Our tremendous output for ‘medicines, etc, compels us to buy many thousands of dollars’ worth of goods every month, and, of course, all dealers who sell to druggists are anxious for our {rade and give us very low prices and big discounts for spot cash. The small druggist has to pay too many Peruna costs the manufacturer about 10e, costs wholesalers about 5dc—costs small druggists 663c— the small druggists’ customers pay $1. wholesaler and give wholesaler’s profit, When we sell Peruna for 60¢ we make about 20 per cent profit—enough for us, and we save our customers 40c a bottle.
