NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Three persons ‘were badly injured by the explosion of a charge of dynamite at Park a¥enue and Forty-first street, where worl( is in pro- gress in connection with the station on the Rapld Transit subway. A large num- ber of persons were standing.on the side- walk above watching the men at work, when suddenly a loud explosion was heard and tons of rocks of all sizes' were projected into the air. Most of the se- rious accidents in connection with the subway work have occurred in this vieinity. | PRELIMINARY POLL OF COMING ELECTIONS SHOWS REPUBLICANS WILL CONTROL CONGRESS —_— tricts, and that is largely due to the mpagnificent fight put up for Cuban reciproc- ity by Representative Long and to the influence of ~President Roosevelt. The Democrats stand to gain four Representatives in Pennsylvania. They will gain one in Indiana, two in Maryland, one n one each in Towa and Michigan. Missouri, one in Wisconsin and possibly PROMISE OF SdMB SOLID DELEGATIONS. Horace Boies will probably not win in Iowa, Birdsall being almost certain of election in Henderson’s district. The Nebraska delegation will be evenly divided. Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Texas and Virginia will have solid Demccratic delegations. Minuesota, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Louisiaha, Mississippi, South Carolina, California, Maine, Utah, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington and West Virginla will not " be represented by any Democrat. Thirty Senate terms expire March 4, and some of the vacancies have already been filled. Others are to be chosen by Legislatures to be elected November 4. Heitfeld in Idaho may be succeeded by a Republican, Fairbanks in Indiana may glve way to a Democrat, Representative Long may succeed Senator Harris in Kansas and a Republican Mormon, Apostle Smoot, is likely to get Senator Raw- lins’ place from Utah. Delaware, so long unrepresented in the Senate, will probably elect two Dem- ocrats. The Addicks fight still divides the Republicans, and as a result the Dem- ocrats seem reasonably certain of carrying the Democratic vote. The returns indicate that the next United States Senate will stand. Republi- cans 53, Democrats 35, with three State Legislatures—Idahe, Indiana and Penn- sylvania—in doubt.

Pattison is sweeping his third successful cam- palgn for Governor. The feeling against the machine is very strong outside of Philadelphia. It is believed that Pattison will beat Pennypacker if the Republi- can lead in Philadelphia is kept down to 50,00. That city, however, may give Pennypacker from 80,000 to 100,000 plurality, in which event he is dikely to win. Governor Lafollette, Republican, is likely to be re-elected in ‘Wisconsin; Gov- ernor Bliss, Republican, in Michigan, and Governor Van Zant, NEPHEW OF STANFORD MARRIES IN KANSAS Leland §.

KNOX DEGIDES TTLE 13 VALID Attorney General Sub- mits Opinion on Pan- ama Canal, Results of Investigation in Paris Reported to the President. —_—— WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—Attorney Gen- eral Knox has decided that if the United States should accept the offer of the new Panama Canal Company, submitted last spring for the sale of the canal for $40,- 000,000, it would receive through the par- tles In interest a valid and unincumbered title to the property. This decision was arrived at after a thorough and exhaus- tive investigation of the situation {n Parls, first by Special Attorney Charles W. Rus- sell and later by the Attorney General himself. The Attorney General formally submitted the opinion to President Roose- velt to-day. It makes about 300 pages. The following is a synopsis: The Attorney General's opinion. to the President on the title which. ‘the new Panama Canal Company of France of- fers to the United States of all its rights and property on the Isthmus of Panama opens with a history of the concessions made by Colombia in 1§78-1890, ete., “the formation of the De Lesseps Panama Canal Company of France, the fallure of this compuny# 1888, the transfer in 1894 of all its rigts to the present Panama Canal Company of France by the liquida- tor appointed by the French court to wind up the affairs of the old company and the laws passed by France concerning the liquidation of the old company. The opinion then takes up the objections the title proposed to be given to the United States. These objections, it says, resolve themselves into reasons in sup- port of the following propositons: That the new Panama Canal Company has not Power to sell the canal and railway prop- erty; that the liquidatorof the old Panama Canal Company has not power to consent to such sale; that the French courts have not power to authorize the liquidator and the new company or either of them to en- ter into the sale; that, at all’events, the TUnited States would take the property as tions to the stackholders, the bondholaers and the other creditors of both companies. HISTOBY OF COMPANIES. panies of the king in question are ex- altogether different from our corpora- tions, but to be esily understood if looked upon as Drlva(e{lrtnerflhlps, which is their essential character. The opinion | says that they are in some respects regu- lated by the law, but that these regu- lations do not change the essential char- acter of the concerns as partnerships, do not establish any tle between them and the Government or any obligations from them to the Government, and do not forbid the exercise of liberty to dispose of their property as freely as an indi- vidual disposes of -his if no special law forbids this and if he is solvent and not under some particular contract or other like obligation to retain the property. The new Panama Company is quite solvent and there is no law to forbid it to sell. The powers of the general meetings of stockholders of that company are discussed, and it is held to have derived from the partnership agreement _ample power to sell as it is proposing to do. The laquidator of the old company, when he turned over the as- sets to the new company, stipulated for 60 per cent of the profits of the canal when finished, and his power to consent to the sale and give up his right to the 60 per cent is discussed in the light of’ the French law concerning the winding up of such associations, that under the general law of France and the special act of 1893 concerning the liquidation of his compamy he has full power to dispose of the assets of the con- cern and consequently to consent to the sale of the 60 per cent, which is a part of those assets. It is held that the.old company is not in bankruptey or in what is similar to bankruptey under the French law, but is governed by the general law or Civil Code, which the special act of 1883, al- ready referred to, partially modifies. That law requires approval of the Clvil Tribunal of they Seine for all sales or allenations of the assets, but does not prevent such alienations. ' That tribunal has approved the consent of the liquid- ator to the sale, and on appeal by a bond- holder of the old company the Court of Appeals of Paris confirmed the decision, which held that under the special law of 1893 a legal representative of the bond- holders had been appointed by the court to represent them all, and that that rep- resentative, who had formally announcea his consent to the sale, was the only one authorized by the special law to oppose the judgment of approval on behalf of the bondholders. FRENCH COURT'S POWER: The opinion next diseusses the power of the French court to declare.a law- of that kind void, as unconstitutional, and holds that no French court or other authority has power to declare any French-statute vold. The opinion says, however, that the French special act ought not b be declared vold, and if It iS to be criticized at all it is for being too tender of the Which have been made in this country to | a trust fund subject to the total ebliga- | The history and nature of French com- | plained at length.

To Prove What SWAMP-ROOT, the Great Kidney and Bladder Remedy, Will Do for YOU, All Our Readers May Have a Sample Bottle Sent Free by Mail. Pain or dull ache in the back is unmis- takable evidence of kidney trouble. It is nature's timely warning to show you that the .track of health is not clear. If these danger signals are unheeded more serious results are sure to follow; Bright's disease, which is the worst form of kidney trouble, may steal upon you. The mild and the extraordinary effect of the world-famous kidney and bladder remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distress- ing cases. A trial will convince any one ;nnd }1,10“ may have a sample bottle free, y malil. Backashs, Urie Acid and Urinsry Trouble. Among the many famous . cures of Swamp-Root investigated by The Call, the one we publish to-day for the benefit of our readers speaks in the highest terms of the wonderful curative properties of this great kidney remedy. Dr. Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton, N. Y. Gentlemen: When I wrote you last March for a sample bottle of Swamp-Root my wife was a great sufferer from backache, rheuma- tism and urinary trouble, also excess of uric acid. After trying. the sample bottle she bought a large bottle here at the drug store. That did ber so much good she bought more. The affect of Swamp-Root was wonderful and almost im- mediate. She has felt no' return of the old trouble since. F. THOMAS, Oct., 1801. * 427 Best st. Buffalo, N. Y. Lame back {s only one symptem of kid- ney trouble—one of many. Other symp- toms showing that you need Swamp-Root are, obliged to pass water often during the day and to get up many times at night, inability to hold your urine, smart- ing or irritation in passing, brickdust or sediment ~in the urine, catarrh of the private rights and remedies of those in- terested and not sufficiently like a bank- ruptey law. As to the proposition that the United States would be gubjéct to the debts and claims of the stockholders and bondhold- ers and other creditors of both compa- nies, the opinion says: “As a general proposition it is not per- ceived how there could be any law or equity for subjecting an. article sold as assets of a falling partnership (such as the old company) to the debts of the partnership. .If such were the law there would be no purchasers of such assets, and the creditors would receive no pay- | ment of their debts out of the proceeds nor the stockholders any dividend of a residue.” Nevertheless, the opinion exhaustively considers all possible mortgages and oth- er liens affecting the property itself, real or personal, under French or Colombian It says there have been mlortgages and pledges of personal property, and shows in detail what became of them. As to the propesition that the United States cannot take title to the shares of stock of | the Panama Railroad Company, a New York corporation, which the Panama Company proposes to sell with the canal property, the opinion holds that the Gov- ernment can take and hold any kind of property it may have need of in the same manner as an individual can—that it would hold the shares as an individual ‘would hold them. . QUESTION OF RAILROAD. As for the suggestion that the United States, at all events, could not destroy the railroad, it Is pointed but that it was evidently not the intention of the French it they built the canal to dispense with the railroad. As to the objection that Congress has authorized a purchase from the new company only and not from the liquidator, the opinion says: Certalnly, In view of the condition of the title as heretofore explained, the purchase will be from the new company and the consent of ihe liquidator will be at once a waiver of his rights as to property transferred to the new company. But If this were otherwise, it would be unreasonable to treat the act of Congress as forbldding a purchase from the new company In which it would be necessary for the old com- pany or the liquidatr to join as vendor. This would be to defeat, not to ascertain, the will of Congress. What it wants is a good title from the owner of certain specified property, the owner being subposed to be, and being admit- tedly in part, the new company, and it is en- tirely justifiable to buy from the owner, al- thcugh the principal ownership should be found not to in the new . company. Whether we belleve it is in the new company or the old company, £o long as it is not out of both, seems to me altogether immaterfal, since both join in the proposed sale. ‘The opinion closes as follows: “For the reasons I have given I am of the opinion that the United States would receive a good, valid and unincumbered title.” EMPEROR AND A KING WILL VISIT LONDON William' of Germany and Carlos of Portugal to Be Guests of Edward. LONDON, Oct. %.—Emperor William will arrive in England November 8 and by that time it is expected that King ‘arlos of Portugal also will be a guest of King Edward. There is every reason to believe that the meetings of the three monarchs will result.in important international uuder- standings, especially as regards South Africa, and’ more particularly Delagoa Bay, which is so vitally important to Great Britain as an outlet for her newly acquired colonies. The Portuguese Government appears willing to transfer some; portions of its South African territory to British rule. Germany, however, is understood fo be strenuously opposed to British trade se- curing such an advantage, at any rate i { I bladder, uric acld, constant headache, dizziness. sleeplessness, nervousness, ir- regular heart-beating, rheumatism, bloat- ing, irritabllity, wornout feeling, lack of ambition, loss of flesh, sallow complexion.
