Amendment to Treaty Prevents Di- minution of Sugar Duties. WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—The State De- partment is considering the advisability of extending the period of time allowed for the ratification of the Cuban re-| | ciprocity treaty, now pending before the | United States Senate. The time allowed | for ratification expires one week from to- day. While the Senate managers are con- fident of their ability to secure the ap- | proval of the treaty within the time limit, | the President and Secretary” Hay have | about concluded that they will be scarcely | warranted in risking the loss of this im- portant convention and therefore they | contemplate the drafting of a special ar- | ticle in the shave of a protocol which will4 provide for a safe extension of the period | allowed for ratification. The attention the officials who have | had to do with this treaty was directed to-day to the statement made in London to Lord Lansdowne by the delegates of | | the Chamber of Commerce of the United Kingdom to the effect that the Cuban treaty contained a secret clause stipulat- ing that no further measures of re- ciprocity shall be undertaken by the United States toward the British West Indies. It was explained that there was no secret clause in the treaty. What the delegates undoubtedly had reference to was the amendment to the treaty made | by the Senate Committee prohibiting for a term of five years any diminution of the sugar duties in the tariff laws, the effect of which would be to prevent the-con- firmation of any reciprocity treaty with the British West Indian colonies, or, in- deed, with any country, permiting a re- duction of sugar duties. This amendment is entirely obnoxious to the administra- tion, but whether its inclusion would cause the loss of the treaty cannot be foretold at this moment. ber: | be strongly tic 1 exercising e comfort and Men’s Lace and Congr €58 Men's Congress and Lace Shoes, wici kid and calfskin, pointed and orth from & pair A wide, 6% t010 D wide, 5% to 61 B wide, 5 to 10 E_wide, C wide, 9% to 10 EE wid ‘We cannot guarantee to fill coun- try orders on the above sale goods, for while we have some sizes of every style advertised, yet We have not every size of every style ad- vertised.

It s well understood that in the represen- tion of Venezuela by Bowen he has been instructed to treat with the pow- ers demanding indemnities on a fair and uitable basis and to secure if possible the concession of a reasonable time in which to satisfy these demands. It was said that Venezue in view of her ef- forts through Minister Bowen to effect » settlement as speedily as possible, re- gards as wanton the bombardments which have taken place and as rendor- ing it more difficult to reach an under- standing with the elaimants. Great Britain’s attitude in the alliance | is now the center of attention. While the weight of English publie sentiment is un- doubtedly against the alliance, the opin- jon of those in Washingtoa famillar with the situation is that the alllance will not be easily broken. England would scarce- risk an open rupture with Germany, upon which nation she may have to de- pend for aid against Russia in.the Far East. If Great Britain continues to stand by Germany the United States will proba- bly take only conservative action to end the blockade. If England will agree to accept the offer of Venezuelan customs P satisfactory guarantee, Ameérica will no trouble in dealing with Germany. the same time, if this Government comes to feel that an indefinite continu- ance of the blockade meant an attack on the Monroe doctrine, the combined navies of Great Britain, Germany and Italy would not prevent an emphatic dec- laration from the United States. Public sentiment in this country is form- ing rapidly in favor of the United States taking a decided stand. Members of Con- gress report that many of their constitu- ents are imbued with the idea that Ger- many intends to test the Monroe doctrine, if she can keep Great Britain in concert with her.

There is none of us so hardened but that whnen we have been able to ald our fellow creatures by conferring a benefit or bring- ing a little comfort.into their lives we like to have appreciation shown. This gener- ally affords more pleasure than-the per- formance of the act itself, and in this con- rection the following letter from a Texas lady is of more than usual interest: “Dear Friends: 1 address you as such, for you have been such to me. I suffered tor three years off and on with piles. I was treated at the hospital, and the new end elegant hospital of Memphis; -they only gave me temperary reltef. I came West thinking the change of air and wa- ter would benefit me; five months ago the bleeding plles came back on me, and bled s0 much that I thought I would die. “l have had four of the finest doctors in this section of Texas; all they did was to finally nearly let me go to my grave; all they wanted was a big sum of money from me and to operate on me. I sald no, | no surgeon’s knife would enter me; if it was my time to die God knew it, and when I died I would die all together.” “I began hearing about your medjcine. 1 bad no faith in you, but I sent and got a box of Pyramid Pile Cure; in two days the blood flow had slackened to one-halt the amount, and in one week I felt so much better I walked four blocks and did a little housework. - I was not bleeding then; in three weeks 1 was well. “God bless you for putting such a won- @erful medicine within the reach of suf- fering men: and women. 1 shall never ccase to recommend your medicine or’be without ‘it; also I used your Pyramid Piils.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—It was noticed that while at the White House reception Thursday night the President greeted his guests with his left hand. This was due te an Injury to ‘his right sustained in the practice of singlestick exercise with General Leonard Wood. On Thursday while he was having his usual exerclse with General Wood the light singlesticks in use were broken and resort was had to some very heavy sticks. In the subsequent rallies the President received a sharp blow across the wrist. It did not disable his hand entirely, but renflered it necessary for him to use his left hand in shaking hands with his 1500 guests that night. Several times during the last month he has received on the same wrist similar blows. The result is that the wrist is swollen considerabl glves him some pain and causes him some inconvenience. To-day the injured mem- ber is much improved and the chances are that it will be in normal condition in a few days. Rt Curio Dealer’s Curious Will. M. Leon Liniewitz, a curio dealer in Vienna, died a few days ago in St. Pe- tersburg, leaving an estate worth over £800,000. His nineteen children were com- pletely disinherited, their father's fortune being bequeathed partly to Catholic mon- asterles and partly to perfect strangers. The will will be contested by the family. Liniewitz laid the foundations of his for- tune by selling to a well-known curio dealer in London for a large sum—said to be £30,000—an antique bronze chest which he had bought for less than £3. He also sold to one of the Rothschilds for £6000 a palr of Sevres vases which had only cost him 10s.—London Mail. —_——— Son’s Death Causes Suit. ‘W.T. and Lucinda Craig, parents of W. H.
