The only rotable incidents of the day were the speeches of Stev- ens, a Republican member from Minne- sota, who spoke in opposition to the | bill, and tha speech of Mayor-elect Mc- | Clellan of New York. Stevens opposed the measure for reciprocity with Cuba at the last session. To-day he argued'| that the bill was & “cruel blow” at one | of the most important agricultural in- | dustries in this country and that the RUN 15 STARTED ON READING BANK Depositors of Pennsyl- vania Trust Company Alarmed. Officers of the Institution Say It Is in Sound Financial Condition. Lo e READING, Pa., Nov. 17.—For some unexplained cause a run was started to-day on the Pennsylvania Trust Com- pany, especially in its savings depart- ment. A continuous line of depositors pressed forward and were rapidly paid off. President. Brooke and several di- rectors endeavored to restore confidence among the depositors by assuring them that the institution was in sound finan- cial condition. measure would imperil our vast foreign trade. McClellan delivered his valedic- { tory to the House, making an argument | in favor of the bill, during the course | of which he criticized the administra- | tion of General Wood in Cuba an charged the Republicans with responsi bility for what was lacking in the ful fillment of the duty of the United | States to Cuba. Four hours were de- voted to-day to debate on the measure, ten members speaking. Under the rule two days more are given for speeches. | BOAST OF A DEMOCRAT.

Sald he: “Your Uncle Mark invented ‘Let well enough alone.’ He afterward converted this into ‘Stand pat,’ and then the able chairman of the W tee (Payne) added a little "Keep on ing well enough alone’; when your Uncle Mark was pur Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and Sen- ator Foraker, he added, ‘For God's sake, let's keep on letting well enough alone.’ McCLELLAN’S VALEDICTORY. McClellan of New York followed. He said there was an argument in favor of the enactment of the bill which rose above all others and involved the duty and honor of the United States. Cuba,” said McClellan, “to seek alli- ances elsewhere. it is a duty we cannot shirk to permit her to enter into the political and commercial rela- | tions with us.” ! Answering the statement that there as no reason why the bill should be ed because no benefits accrued to United States he said: “In view of the fc obligations ch we are under to Cuba, this ob-| ction is selfish; but even this objec- tion can be met.” He said the liberal concessions made by Cuba in the treaty “should certain- wlv;g“:‘vhvd for aljy permit the United States to obtain 2 i Missouri River| yirtual monopoly of the Cuban mar- - s »e sold to con- | kets." rs in D a ton.

That she has been able st at all during the last two years ause of two reasons: First, the | change in her government; second, the marketing of an increased amount of | tobacco and sugar. In 1902 the spec- | tacular and extravagant rule of Gen eral Wood, having saddled upon Hav na for ten years the infamous gambling monopoly of the Sociedad Anonima Jai Alai, gave place to the conservative, economical, sensible and business-like administration of President Palma, who has proved himself an exgcutive of the very highest order.” After quoting figures, McClellan said: | “In other words, under President Pal- ma the cost of government is more than $7,000,000 less per annum than it was under General Wood.” { In conclusion, McClellan said: “And now, at last, after years of waiting, after the spectacle of an in-| solent lobby practically dominating the | Congress, we propose to partially fulfill our pledge to Cuba by giving her this | tupenny measure of relief that is war- ranted not to offend the susceptibili-| ties of the most sensitive trust in exist- | ence. We have made a solemn promise | to Cuba. If a Republican majority in | its might is only willing to partially | keep that promise, the blame and the | shame rest with the Republican party. But the bill is unquestionably a breach in the wall of protection.” OPPOSED TO RECIPROCITY. ker (R.) of Indiana said re- have something upon which to nego- tiate.

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE. Has it ever been your unhappy lot to be told by your physician that you must go to a hospital and submit to an operation? If so, you remember with what dread and shrinking you awaited the day when you must endure the ‘knife. The present day surgeon appears to be possessed by a mania for operating, especially in cases of hemorrholds or piles, and while the greater number of the profession do not recommend this “last resort” unless they honestly be- lieve it necessary, the fact remains that much needless operating is done, and the patient put to much expense and suffering for what? To obtain a possible temporary re- lief; these words are used advisedly, because in nine cases out of ten the affliction returns and the patient is just where he started from. Often- times he could be cured much more simply and easily by the uSe of such a remedy as the Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come to be recognized as the best remedy on the market for the painful disease named, and the druggists now sell more of it than all other pile remedies combined. The writer personally knows people who were afflicted with the worst form of bleeding and protruding piles and who were permanently cured by the use of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every one of these cases the attending phy- | sician “had assured the sufferer that only by an operation could he rid him- self of the disease; so much for the in- fallibility of the doctors. This remedy, which is sold by all druggists at the low price of ffty cents, is in suppository form, is ap-| plied directly to the parts affected, a.ndl performs its work quietly and pain- lessly. The Pyramid Drug Co. Mar- shall, Mich., will mail free to any ad- dress a book telling all about piles or hemorrhoids, their cause and cure. A suggestion is offered that if the reader is afflicted, or knows any one' who is, this book be sent for, as it wlui oo be found invaluable. .

HERMOSILLO, Mexico, Nov. 17.— The authorities here have just been ad- vised of a terrific explosion of dynamite in the Grand Central Mine at La Colo- rada, operated by an American com- pany. ‘ Pedro Castillo, the Mexican foreman, was killed and a half dozen Mexican miners are so badly injured that they will die. The Mexican duthorities, after inves- tigating the affair, held the owners of the mine responsible for the accident, censuring them for the careless man- ner in which they allowed their ex- plosives to be handled. The superintendent of the mine did all in his power to relieve the suffer- ings of the injured and it is believed that the usual arrest which follows mine and railroad accidents where Mexicans in the employ of an Ameri- can company are killed will not be made in this case.

The committee on resolutions report- ed unfavorably on nine resolutions in- troduced by socialists, and calling upon the convention to favor public owner- ship, the collective ownership of land and capital and in a general way de- claring the federation should form it- self into a political party. Delegate Max Hayes of Cleveland, one of the leading socialists in the convention, was on his feet in a moment to protest against the report, and he was loudly applauded by the spectators in the gal- lery. He moved the following substi- tute for the committee's report: “Since wages can pever be regarded as the full equivalent for labor toil, this convention recommends that the work- ers use their political and economical power along the lines of their class in- terest to secure for labor the full pro- duct of its toil.” Delegate Hayes proceeded to make a twenty-minute speech on socialism. other material is Dr. case of the Franco-Venezuelan claims. ‘ ————— King Leopold Will Visit America.
