A Weak
Stomach
Indigestion is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don'tover
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need a good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
Boon restore health. Dieting unneces
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing of fulness and bloating frora
which some people suffer after meals.
Absolutely cures indigestion.

Washington, Jan. 8. —A throng of
persons of note assembled yesterday
to attend the ceremonies incident to
the dedication of the Washington
public library. The event occurrcl
in the auditorium of the new library.
The participants in the exercises in
cluded the president of the United
States and Andrew Carnegie, the do
nor of the building.
The library building is a beautiful
white marble structure occupying tiie
center of Mount Vernon square in
the very heart of Washington. For
its construction Mr. Carnegie dona
ted $:!50.000 and as an architectural
ornament it is quite equal to the gov
ernment buildings of the city.
The dedication exercises lasted
scarcely an hour. After the bishop
of Washington, Kt. liev. Dr. Satterlce,
had pronounced prayer, President
Roosevelt made a speech.
In a brief address H. B. MacFar
land, one of the commissioners of the
District of Columbia, turned the
building over to the board if library
trustees. President Noyes responding
on behalf of the board.
Mr. Carnegie said that he had given,
chiefly within the past two years, ~;o
library buildings. During July last,
270 applications for library buildings
were received by him from all parts
of the English-.-peaking world. When
he arrived in New York last month
[ from Europe he found awaiting him
I applications for 450 additional build
| ings. To-day he has on hand l;sj new
applications, making in all under con
! sidcration now m-orc than 800,"the
1 great majority of which." lie said,
"will, no doubt, be jfiven."
j Mr. Carnegie after t.iie dedication of
tiie .library said that lie was so well
' pleased with the new library and the
use made of his gift of o')."i0,000 and
| the provision for the -support of the
library that he would donaie another
$3.">0,000 for the erection of branch li
braries on the same condition as the
original gift, namely, that the city
provide the sites and arrange for the
support of the libraries.

Special Jury to Act on tile Situation.
Chicago, Jan. B.—The committee np
,| pointed by the Illinois Manufacturers*
association to pursue the investiga
tion into the causes of the coal fain
, ine in this city, called upon States At
torney Deneen yesterday and urged
upon him the advisability of empan
eling a special grand jury to act up
on a volume of evidence collected,
tending to show illegal methods em
ployed by coal dealers to raise the
price of coal.
"There can be 110 question about
the manufacturers' legal rights," said
Mr. Deneen, when asked about his
. 1 probable action, "if they have the
| necessary evidence. The exact nature
lof the facts the committee has in
I hand, however, I do not kno.v. We
I discussed the general scope if tl.e
j case and the law bearing upon it. As
;to whether there will be a special
j grand jury called I cannot say."
The action of the committee fol
lowed a meeting earlier in the day. at
which replies from a large number of
manufacturers throughout the ,-ity to
a letter sent out by the association,
were considered. Chairman Eekert
declared that the complaints of the
manufacturers were almost unani
mous to the effect that coal could not
] be secured from dealers, even where
I purchased under an ironclad contract,
except at an almost prohibitive price.
"There seems to be plenty of coal,"
Raid Mr. Eekert, "but the dealers are
holding it back in the yards of the
railroad companies until they can get
I their price for it."
The letters, he said, convey the
idea that many manufactories will
I be compelled to close unless the sit
| nation shall be relieved. Many large
I firms complained that they had been
; compelled to pay ft.so to s•> a ton for
softcoal contracted for ats2.7o a ton.

I.oblu 011 tin- Stund.
Philadelphia, Jan. 7.—Twenty-two
men, all but one of whom were em
ployed in and about the coal mines,
appeared before the anthracite coal
strike commission at its first session
in this city yesterday and recited the
oft-told tales of persecution because
they chose to work rather than join
the strikers. The single exception
was Charles 11. Seliadt, of Seranton,
the sheriff of Lackawanna county.
The sheriff, in direct examination
Raid, among other things, that he is
sued a proclamation shortly after the
strike was inaugurated, calling upon |
ail persons in the county to keep the
peace; that it was difficult to get men
to act as deputy sheriffs; that in
most cases, where there was trouble,
It was usually over when he and hi>
men arrived; that he attempted to
keep the peace in all localities and
that the disturbances became so nu
merous and serious that he had to
•all 011 the governor for troops.
Sheriff Sehadt was then turned over
to the miners for cross-examination,
fo the surprise of most persons Mr.
Mitchell took up the examination.
The sheriff said lie had employed 10
or :>o deputy sheriffs and admitted '
flint they were paid by the coal com- j
panic-, lie could not say that a gen- I
era] state of lawlessness existed in
the county, but said there was a
reign of terror in existence in some '
localities. lie said that as a rule
crowds dispersed when he ordered
them to d<> so. and that striking mi- !
ners whom lie knew obeyed his orders
the same as other persons. He also
admitted that the second contingent
of troops sent into his county was
ordered there without his request.
This appeared to satisfy President!
Mitchell and then Mr. Wilson took the
witness in hand and asked him why
the county did not pav the deputy j
sheriffs. The sheriff replied that the j
companies had made the request fori
protection, and counsel for the wit
ness explained that it was the law in
Pennsylvania that the company ask-I
ing for protection was compelled to
pay for it. The explanation rather
surprised Chairman Cray, who said; •
"I am not familiar with such an
un-American law. When the county
or the state relinquishes the duty of
maintaining and protecting life and
property and keeping the peace, then 1
they are open to criticism."
Philadelphia, Jan. S.—The non-union :
men continue to occupy the attention
of the coal strike commission in pre- |
senting evidence of lawlessness in the I
anthracite coal region during the
strike. The testimony yesterday in
cluded many acts of violence, from ;
murder down to plain assault and ;
petty larceny.
Philadelphia, Jan. !).• —The principal
eat lire of the proceedings before the
•oal strike commission yesterday was
the exception taken by President
Mitchell to a remark made by Chair
man Cray that he would like to see
the Miners' union come up out of the
mire that is around the baser parts
of it. into the sunlight. The miners'
president said that the union should
not be indicted unless a connection
could be shown between it and acts
of lawlessness. The head of the com- \
mission replied that he did not wish
to (indict tin- organization, but hoped
it would disentangle itself from the
violence and lawlessness committed
during the strike.
Witness (iinley testified that wit-'
nesses were averse to coming before
the commission because they were
afraid of losing their positions, lie
told of one instance where a man was
refused work because lie appeared be
fore the arbitrators, and the com mis- j
sion made a note of it and said an in- I
vestigation would be made. The wit
ness said that many of the coal and
iron police were of bad character.
Some had served time in jail and
were hired a- guards as soon a.s lib
erated from prison.
Philadelphia, Jan. 10. —After occu
pying eight days, during which time
they presented about 150 witnesses,
the non-union men who are a party
t'o the arbitration agreement closed
their case yesterday before the coal
strike commission.
The principal witne--i before the
commission was Lieut, Gov. liobin,
senior brigadier general of the na
tional guard of Pennsylvania, (ien.
Cobin was in command of the Third
brigade during the time the troops
were 011 duty in the hard coal fields,
lie was im the stand three hours and

La Crosse, Wis., Jan. 10. —As pris
oners on the same train they ure al
leged to have held up six months ego
at Marcus, 111., four men who are be
lieved to be of the gang which
robbed the liurlington train at that
place, were left at .Savannah, 111., by
the train on Tliursday night and were
taken to Mount Carroll, tin* county
scat, where they will be arraigned on
the charge of holding up the train.
The story of the findings of clews and
their subsequent capture is interest
ing.
A detective, Charles White, visited
every nook and corner of the Missis
sippi river Uetwenn here and the plae«
where the robbery occurred, to find
the person of whom the robbers
bought the boat which was found
sunken with sand in the river near
where they had temporarily buried
their booty. It took him thres
months and he was not successful un
til he reached La Crosse, when, in
company with Detective William Ly
nain, </f the local force, after two
weeks of unremitting work, they lo
cated the man from wlhom the skiff
had been purchased. He and his wife
went to ( Isii-.i 'o on Wednesday night
to identify the four alleged robbers.
The robbers, so the detectives
found, went down the river in the
skill', faking four days to make the
i trip, and were joined at Dubuque by
I two others, which made the party fi>c
lin number. One of these robbers
j wore a pair of shoes just, purchased
in Dubuque. He was the one who was
I killed during the robbery. It devel
| ops from the story of one of the
i robber . that the dead robber wit H
killed by their own party. They had
i a secret code of signals which they
j were to use. The dead robber in
i Doming around the train, did not give
| the signal and was shot, lie was not
j killed, however, for after the safe had
| been blown open, and the robbers un
| hitched the engine, they pint the
; wounded man on board. One of the
| part v saiil to him: "Can vou talk
| yet?"
He replied "yes," whereupon one
! of the party shot him through the
head, killing him instantly. They
I then had a discussion as to whether
i to burn the body in the firebox, but
| decided to throw it out of the engine
! cab, which they did. They then
abandoned the engine and got into
i the skiff, went across the river,
buried the money and sunk the boat.
