FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP
MISS MA YME SMITH,
444 E. Mound St., Columbus, Ohio
HAY FEVER is endemic; catarrh. It
is caused by some irritating sun-
stance in the atmosphere during the
late summer months. It is generally
thought that th»' pollen of certain weeds
and flowers is the cause <>t it.
Change of locality semis to he the only
rational cure. The use of Peruna. hew-
ever. stimulates the nervous system to
resist, the effect of the poisonous emana-
tions and sometimes carries the victim
through the hay fever season without an
attack of the disease.
A large number of people rely upon
Peruna for this purpose. Those wl"»
do not find it convenient to change their
location to avoid Hay Fever, would do
well to give Peruna a trial. It has
proven cf priceless value to many people.

WANTS MORE MEN AND ARMS.
Letter From Toronto Leader of Mal-
contents Found on Prisoner.
Eli PASO, Tex., Sept. 5.- A letter found
on Bruno Trevlno one of the men ar-
rested as a Mexican revolutionist on the
Arizona border, dated Toronto, Ont., and
signed R. Flores Magood, head of th •
Mexican revolutionary junta, instructs
Trevino when he has 1000 men willing to
'fight, to attack the Nogales custom
house, take arms and then proceed to in-
terior towns and gather recruits. The
letter says. "Let Cananea alone for the
present. Take Nogales first."
The writer cautions Trevino against
acting too soon and says: "We cannot
yet fix the day on which the uprising
takes place because we must arm our-
selves.
"There are forty revolutionary centers
throughout the country resolved to rise
up in arms, but not all possess sufficient
arms. The junta is working to secure
funds for the revolution. There are per-
sons who could well loan money to buy
arms. Tf they do it the Junta will issue
the necessary receipts which will be rec-
ognized on the triumph of the revolution
and be repaid. In this manner it will be
easier to secure money. We have to be
careful to make the least noise possible
so as not to have the Government con-
stantly forewarned. There are some who
would at once throw themselves on the
despots. This would occasion nothing ex-
cept demoralization and panic. We must
act when we have the probability of suc-
cess. Above all the movement does not
lag. but it will not be on the 16th of
September, as certain papers have gues-
singly made it appear. The day on which
the uprising will take place cannot be
named. This depends on the various
groups or the majority of them being
ready." ^

"There's a Reason."
ALBANY, N. Y., Sept. .".—Two events
of importance in preparation for the
Democratic State campaign took place
here today and the city is buzzing to-
night with political Interest.
First and seeming most important was
the conference of Democrats, which
many counties of the State called to
discuss the situation in the party, the
central figure of which was District
Attorney Jerome of New York.
It is announced that this meeting was
aimed chiefly to prevent, if possible, the
nomination o. endorsement by the State
convention at Buffalo of William It.
Hearst. Several allusions in the speeches
were interpreted as having no other
meaning.
The other incident was a conference of
representatives of several radical Demo-
cratic organizations from which tonight
emanated a statement criticising Mr.
Hearst and declaring in favor of the
nomination of Congressman William Sul-
zer of New York.
At this conference was present Albert
S. Dulin of New Jersey, declared to be a
close personal and political friend of
William J. Bryan. In an interview after-
ward Mr. Dulin spoke in favor of Mr.
Sulzcr.
The Democratic conference was pre-
sided over by Edward M. Sheppard of
Brooklyn and was addressed by Mr.
Jerome and others. Adjournment was
taken to Sept. Z'> at Buffalo, the day and
place of the State convention, and reso-
lutions were adopted setting forth their
views and providing for a committee to
lay before the Democrats of the State
the principles voiced by the conference.
These resolutions were as follows:
"Resolved, That Democrats should rec-
ognize and repudiate boss rule in every
form and especially efforts from any di-
rection to obtain control of the party or-
ganization by purchase, by intimidation
or by hired a gen.'-.
"That the principles of the party re-
quire unflinching opposition to protec-
tionism, Socialism and imperialism.
"That the polky should be the outcome
o". a full, free and untrammeled expres-
sion of the opinion of the party in open
conven t ion assembled
"Resolved. That a committee of five
be appointed by the chair, with full
power to fill vacancies, to lay before the
D- mocrats of every county the principles
above expressed."
The speakers, especially Mr. Jerome,
vcre received with marked enthusiasm.
Say Hearst Movement
Is Inimical to Bryan.
By what they declare was "really an
accidental coincidence," a group of men
representing radical Democratic organi-
sations also held a conference today.
They gave out tonight a statement de-
claring that the Hearst movement was
inimical to that of Mr. Bryan, that Mr.
Hearst is persona, non grata to in-?.
Bryan Democrats and including ;n en-
dorsement of Congressman William Sul-
zer of New York.
This action was given importance bv
the presence at this redical conference
of Albert S. Dulin of New Jersey, for
years editor of the Democratic National
Oongression Committee, and known as a,
close personal and political friend of W.
J. Bryan.
Replving to an inquiry as to the sig-
nificance of his visit here. Mr. Dulin dic-
tated the following statement:
'I am here t;» confer with the repre-
sentatives of the various Democratic, or-
ganizations as to a united policy in the
present campaign, our purpose being to
assist in the nomination of some candi-
date wh<> is the embodiment <>f the prin-
ciples enunciated by W. J. Bryan."
He said also that the adherents of Mr.
Bryan resented the alleged efforts of Mr.
Hearst's friends to secure for him the
Democratic presidential nomination in
1D0X.
"Mr. Hearst." added Mr. Dulin. "has
rendered yoeman servie-* to the Demo-
cratic party in the pr.st. but when he at-
tempts to send back the Democracy and
make it his personal asset at the ex-
pense of the loyal supporters of W. J.
Bryan, it seems to me he is making a
serious political blunder."
WANTED HIM TO CONTRIBUTE
Schaefer Says He Was Offered Sec-
ond Place to Assist With Money
Moran's Campaign.
BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 5.—IT. T. Schaef-
er, a wholesale coal and oil dealer of this
city, last night addressed a letter to
District Attorney John B. Moran, who is
seeking the Democratic nomination for
Governor, in which he said:
"Last Thursday I was approached by
a friend who said he came from those
having in charge your campaign. This
gentleman said your managers wished to
know what my contribution to the cam-
poign fund would be in the event of my
receiving the nomination for Lieutenant
Governor. He also said there was an-
other candidate who was willing to con-
tribute handsomely."
Mr. Schaefer said the course pursued
appeared to him to be prohibited by the
laws of the State. He cited certain chap-
ters of the corrupt practices act and
claimed that the facts should be brought
before the grand jury, adding: "The
evil is more insidious and dangerous
than the commercial graft you have re-
cently investigated."
COALITION IS POSSIBLE.
Democrats Ask Independents Not to
Nominate Without Conference.
BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept. 5.—The Express
today says that \Vm. J. Connorft has
drawn up a memorial to the Indepen-
dence League convention and induced
most of the delegates to the Democratic
convention already chosen to sign it,
which asks the League to refrain from
making any nomination until a confer-
ence may be arranged with the Demo-
cratic State League at the convention
here on the 25th.
The men signing the memorial pledge
Mr. Hearst their support, but beg him
not to force the Democratic party to
"stultify itself by accepting a candidate
already nominated by a third party."

Moorish Authorities Will Submit to
Stensland's Removal.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—Additional in-
structions were sent by the State Depart-
ment today to Mr. Gummere, American
minister to Morocco, relating to the de-
sired surrender of Paul O. Stensland.
president of the Milwaukee Avenue State
Bank of Chicago, to Assistant State's At-
torney Olsen of Illinois, who apprehend-
ed the fugitive banker at Tangier.
Failure of the department to hear
yesterday from Mr. Gummere, was due
to the fact that the message sent to him
by the Stritp Department was in cipher
and Mr. Gummere did not possess the
key. He asked the department to repeat
in phraseology so he could understand
and this was done. A prompt reply is
now expected. Until this arrives Mr.
Scott, solicitor for the Department, will
be unable to prepare a ruling asked for
by Adee as to the power of the United
States to secure Stensland and to re-
cover a deposit of $12,000 made by Stens-
land in the French bank at Tangier.
The Moorish authorities will interpose
no objection to the removal to America of
Paul O. Stensland, president of the Mil-
waukee Avenue State Hank of Chicago.
A dispatch to that effect has been re-
ceived at the State Department from
Minister Gummere at Tangier dated to-
day. The dispatch added that Stensland
is a prisoner in the American Legation
there.

tor of the Chicago Tribune, who made the
arrest of Stensland. be appointed to
bring the ex-hanker back to this coun-
irv. On receiving the telegram Assist-
ant States Attorney Barbour wired to
Governor IJeenen at Springfield and the
Governor made a written request to
Presidi nt Roosevelt that Olsen and Kee-
ly be delegated to bring Stensland back
to the United States.
A messenger will leave Chicago today
for Washington with the extradition
papers asking for Stensland. The mes-
senger will continue to Moroccco with the
papers if the St:ite Department cannot by

OEM IMPORTS
INCREASE $5*080
IN EIGHT MONTHS
August Importations Alone Jteach
Over $3,009,000, an increase
of More Than $i,080,§89.
GAINS ARE CHIEFLY IN
POLISHED DIAMONDS
NEW YORK, Sept. o.—Eight months of
the calendar year show an increase in
valuation approximating $5,i)00,<!00 in the
Importation of precious stones and pearls
at New York, in comparison with the
same months of last year. Importers are
now predicting that the gains, which are
chiefly in polished diamonds, will con-
tinue for the remaining four months,
making an annual total greater than any
other in the history of the trade. Whole-
sale dealers say in the face of the rapid
growth of imports, that there is much
difficulty in satisfying the demands for
diamonds, especially in t he smaller sizes.
August's importation figures added up
Saturday at the appraiser's stores are
above $3,000,000, and show gain <>f more
than $1,000,000, compared with August of
last year. Every month thus far this
year, except January, has given a total
above that of the corresponding months
of last year, which leads every preced-
ing year in its aggregate.
Year May
Break Record.
The total for the present year up to
date slightly exceeds $29,000,000. The ex-
pectation is that the next four months
will send the aggregate not only above
that of 1905. which was $37,000,000. but
also above the $40,000,000 in imports of
the fiscal year ended with June last, each
of these totals being the highest that had
been recorded up to date.
Polished diamonds, which are subject
to a 10 per cent ad valorem duty, have
been coming in constantly increasing
valuation for a half dozen years. The
importation of rough diamonds, which
almost tripled in valuation between 1900
and 1904, has continued since close to
the level then reached. Because of the
rapid growth of the American diamond
cutting and polishing industry in the
years immediately after 1900, many ex-
perts predicted that before long prac-
tically all of the diamonds required in
the I'nited States would soon come here
in the rough state, but of the $40,000,000
in imports of the last fiscal year only
one-fourth was in uncut diamonds.
Two reasons are given by the chiet
importers for the continued dominance
in valuation of the polished diamonds.
The half dozen American concerns who
buy rough diamonds from the London
syndicate controlling the South African
output agreed that they would take
larger Quantities of the stones if they
could get them, but the Englishmen
carefully restrict the allotment to each
purchaser and refuse to sell a single
stone except what are offered at
"sights" given at irregular intervals to
the privileged dealers, or their brokers.
Jt is impossible for the diamond manu-
facturers hero to obtain material to ex-
pand their business as much as they
desire.
OFFICIALS ARRESTED.
Adolph Segal and Two Officers of
Real Estate Trust Company
Charged With Defrauding.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. Sept. 5.—On the
charge of having defrauded the depositors
of the Real Kstate Trust Company of
this city out of many millions of dollars.
Adolph Segal, a promoter of many entet-
prices; Wm. F. North, the treasurer of
the trust company, and Marshall b. Col-
lingwood, the assistant treasurer, were
arrested today at the instance of District
Attorney Hell, who has spent nearly■ o
wek in investigating the afaftrs of the.
Wrecked bark.
Segal was held In $25,000 ball and the
two trust company officials in 510,000
each. They entered bond and will be
given a hearing tomorrow.
This turn in the affairs of the com-
pany is only one of the many sensations
exported to develop in connection with
the failure, which it is estimated vi.il
exceed $10,000,000 before the receiver
finishes his investigation.
No other arrests are expected at this
time and the "divers other persons
mentioned in tha warrants was inserted
for the purpose of covering any other
persons who might hereafter be found to
be implicated in the collapse of tne trust
company. , , , ,
Acloluii Segal, who is looked upon as
the principal in ihe failure of the insti-
tution, had nothing to say after his ar-
rest. He contented himselt by referring
all persons to his attorneys.
Segal is the promoter of many enter-
prises in this city and throughout th<*
State of Pennsylvania. To carry on his
operations he borrowed. Receiver Marie
says, more than $6,000,000, for which he
gave to President Hippie, the only man
in the bank he dealt with, securities that
were insufficient. It was at first be-
lieved that Hippie did not benefit by
his dealings with Segal, but later de-
velopments show that he . deep in
the schemes of Segal and a partner in
some of his companies.
After attending a meeting of the board
of directors of the trust company today,
John M. Converse, one of the directors,
expressed the opinion that depositors will
be paid in full. He said the plan of re-
organization outlined last night is being
seriously considered. This plan calls for
the issuance to the large depositors
blocks of preferred stock, thereby per-
mitting the directors to have the use of
a part of their deposits in liquidating
smaller claims The plan also provides
that the directors advance $3,000,000 in
cash.
District Attorney Hell and Receiver
Earle continued their investigations to-
day at the trust company's office.
District Attorney Bell announced today
that President Hippie before ending his
life had written a brief confession of his
misdeeds. On the day President Hippie
shot himself, his son, F. W. Harton Hip-
pie. found a note in his father's room.
It was written in ink on the back of an
envelope. It bore no address and was as
follOWB:
"Segal got fill the money. I was fooled,
but have no one to blame but myself."
According to Mr. Bell, the note im-
plicated no others.

BEXAR BOWLING CLUB.
Fifth Anniversary Celebrated by Bowl-
ing Match and Election
of Officers.
The Bexar Bowling Club celebrated its
fiftii anniversary at Beethoven Hall last
night with a bowling contest, election
of new officers and a banquet.
This is the only club in the city which
is organized solely for the promotion
of bowling. It was organized five years
ago with a restricted membership and
that number has never been increased.
Its membership is now restricted to thir-
ty and there are always at least a dozen
waiting to fill the vacancies as they may
occur. The club meets regularly every
Wednesday night at Beethoven Hall for
the contests.
The banquet last night was preceded
by two bowling contests. Two t. ms
were selected from the thirty member
present. The bowling lasted until about
10 o'clock, after which the members re-
paired to the dining hall, where a magni-
ficent spread was awaiting them.
No toasts or speeches were made as
the members said they were too busy
eating t" talk. To make the most of the
time while the members were eating
the eluo was called to order by the
president who stated that the time for
the present officers to retire and the
election of new ones to take place had
arrived.
Treasurer George Lowther read the re-
port of the club for the year, which
showed that it was in debt to the amount
of cents. This report wa,s greeted with
a storm of protests as the members
claimed that the officers had not spent
enough money.
A motion was made to retain the pres-
ent officers, which was met by a protest
by President Shields. A motion was
then made to re-elect all present offi-
cers. which motion was declared out
of order. Some one placed in nomina-
tion Frank W. Patton, and the presi-
dent declared the nominations closed,
took the vote and decleraded all nays
out of order and Mr. Patton elected. This
high-handed dictatorship on the part of
the retiring president aroused a storm
of laughter and no further resistance
was offered.
H. E. Elsworth was unanimously elect-
ed treasurer anu George W. Huntress sec-
retary.
The retiring officers are: T. J Shields,
president; George Lowther, treasurer,
and John Walsh, secretary

Tonic After Typhoid
MRS. EVELYN B. BARNARD.
Mrs. Evelyn B. Barnard, of
Kingston, N. Y., tells how Duf-
fy's Pure Malt Whiskey trans-
formed her from weakness into
strength after a terrible nine
weeks' siege of typhoid fever. She
regards this medicine as a life
saver for her. The following are
her own words:
"I regard Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
as a life-saver for me. I had been down
nine weeks in the City's Hospital with
the terrible typhoid fever. When I was
discharged of course I was very weak
and could hardly stand on my feet. I
had read so much of your medicine and
its cures that I resolved to give It a.
fair trial. I took three bottles on the
start; in two weeks 1 was able to walk
half a mile without tiring, and I can real-
ly and truly say it saved me from a re-
lapse. I still keep it in the house, as it
is the only good medicine to have around
as a preventive in any kind of sickness
I hope you will publish this, that others
may know where to find a medicine that
really has such merits. Yours very truly.
Mrs. EVELYN B. BARNARD, Station R..
Box 07, Kingston. N. Y.. Oct. 26, 1905."
