A Weak
Stomach
Indigestion Is often caused by over,
eating. An eminent authority say«
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don't over
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
soon restore health. Dieting unneces
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing of fulness and bloating from
which some people suffer after meals.

Out-Hit; Four Train Strikes a
Street Car at Springfield,
O. .Tinny Injured.
Ilazleton, Pa., Jan. 31.—The fast ex
press train from Wilkesbarre for
Philadelphia on the Schuylkill Valley
division of the Pennsylvania railroad
collided head-on last evening with a
freight train near Lofty, nine miles
Bouth of Ilazleton. The engineer and
fireman of the freight train were
killed; the engineer and fireman and
colored porter of the passenger train
seriously hurt and seven passengers
slightly injured. The dead:
Robert Moyer, engineer.
Fred Gearhardt, fireman.
■Seriously injured: Israel Carey, en
gineer.
John Smith, fireman.
Harry llayward (colored), porter.
Between Ilazleton and Lofty there
Is a single track which is used by
both the Lehigh Valley and Pennsyl
vania railroads. Through a misun
derstanding of orders both trains got
on this single stretch of track and
before the engineers saw the danger
it was too late to avert the collision.
The locomotives came together
with a terrible crash. The freight
engine leaped over the top of the ex
press car and plunged into the chair
car. The passengers in this car were
hurled in every direction. The por
ter, Harry llayward, was thrown
against the roof and probably fatally
Injured. The hot coal from the fire
box set fire to the chair car and it
was destroyed in a short time.
A relief train was sent out from
Ilazleton with a number of physicians
on board. The injured were brought
to the Ilazleton hospital. Tt is said
the engineer of the freight train had
an order to take side track and al
low the flyer to pass, but failed to
reach the siding before the passenger
train arrived.
Springfield, 0., Jan. 31. —A Big Four
passenger train, southbound, struck
a street car at a street crossing
early last evening. The car was will :
filled with people and was hit square
ly in the center, driving it 50 feet be
yond the crossing. Eleven persons
were injured, two of whom, Mrs. Ad
die Wheeler and Antia Bailey, are
seriously injured and may die. The '
motorman, A. D. Wilkinson, is also j
badly liurt and no statement can be 1
obtained from him, although it is
thought he was unable to stop the
car on account of defective brakes.
WORLD OF TRADE.
Dun's Weekly Itcport of Hiisliirsi*
Conditions lndustries (•cnerally
Active Fuel Scarce Labor lllvtli.
New York, Jan. 31. R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Domestic trade and industry con
tinue to prosper, while the fuel sit
uation has grown less disturbing
through the special efforts of trans- i
porters, aided bv mild weather. Dis
tribution of other products has been |
restricted by the discrimination in j
favor of coal, and shippers are impor- |
tunate. Clearance sales are about,;
ended, leaving only small stocks of
winter goods.
Advance business in spring deliv
eries is very heavy, and fall contracts
are also placed liberally. In most, |
cases where there is no delay on fuel [
account, manufacturing plants are
busy, though cost of materials and
labor Is very high. Firm prices for
finished products are consequently to
be expected. Favorable returns of
railway earnings are constantly is
sued. figures thus far available show
ing an increase of 5.7 per cent, over
last year.
Miles of loaded cars and thousands
of tons of coke piled in the yards at
Connellsville tell the story of condi
tions in the iron and steel industry.
Furnaces are closing because of the
fuel shortage. By giving coal, live
stock and perishable goods prece
dence over all other freight, the rail
roads helped consumers everywhere,
but at the expense of the leading
manufacturing industry. Many plants
are closed or running only part time,
nml few orders for distant delivery
are either sought or offered, owing
to the uncertainty as to when normal
conditions will prevail. Deliveries of
pig iron to the leading consumers
are several months behnd.
Failures for the week numbered

last year, and .'to in Canada, compared

UNION PACIFIC STRIKE.
.1Inclilnl*l« ltrl'iiMc to Accept u Plrce
Work System Struggle to be He
nnvcil I Kxtended.
Oinahu, Neb., Jan. 31. —President
Burt, of the Union Pacific railroad,
on Friday met representatives of the
striking shopmen of that system to
continue the conferences begun in
New York three weeks ago. Yester
day's meeting resulted in the shop
men leaving 1 without reaching a .set
tlement and the strike will now con
tinue and be extended over the South
ern Pacific system.
President McNeil, of the National
Association of Boilermakers, was
spokesman for the strikers and told
President, Hurt that a thorough can
vass of the strikers had been made,
with the result that they unanimous
ly agreed that they could not accept
the piece work system.
President Hurt replied that the men
could return to work under no other
condition, and regretted that the men
would not give the system a trial.
The conference lasted 15 minutes.
President McNeil stated that no
plan had yet been arranged for action
on the Southern Pacific, as it had
been expected that it would be un
necessary to bring the men on that
system into the strike, and he added
that such action might be deferred,
lie said there would be no further
conference with President Hurt at
present.
Thomas L. Wilson, fourth vice
president of the .Machinists' union,
said the American Federation of La
bor will be asked to take a hand, and
that the strike would be carried on
more vigorously than ever.
NEW GERMAN TARIFF.
Consul General Union Minna How It
Injuriously AIIVI IN Our Trade.
Washington, Jan. 31. —Information
of much value to exporting interests
concerning German trade is contained
in a report to the state department
by United States Consul General Ma
son. at Herlin. Mr. Mason points out
that the date on which the new tariff
act is togo into operation will de
pend on the time occupied in arrang
ing new commercial treaties, whicu
lis places at from 12 to 18 months,
thus bringing the new law into effect
somewhere between January and
July. I'JO4. Mr. Mason analyzes the
act tersely, showing how it will af
fect the future import trade of Ger
many from the United States unless
meanwhile modified by a reciprocity
treaty.
Especially significant, he says, are
the largely increased duties on grain
and cereal products, tluit on wheat,
rising from the minimum rate of 80
cuts to $1.75 per 100 kilograms. The
duty on horses, now uniform at $4.75
per head, rises to a figure varying
from s2l to SSS. Hicycles instead of
paying $9.52 will pay $35.70 per 100
kilograms. Similar increases are re
ported in other important staple ex
ports from the United States, such as
shoes, lumber, machinery, railroad
apparatus, and railway material.
A BAD OFFICER.
The Major ol' SUM Juan, Forto Itlco,
IN Charged with Kinbczzlciiir lit.
Sail Juan, Porto Rico, Jan. 31. —Gov.
Hunt in issuing an executive order on
Thursday removing the mayor of San
Juan, Manuel Kgozcue, from office,
said he was in possession of further
proofs of that official's negligence
and wrong doing. Criminal action
against the mayor is still pending.
In the meanwhile there is consterna
tion in certain circles at the firm
stand taken by the governor and At
torney General llarlan. The latter's
letter to the governor, containing a
masterly indictment covering Kgoz
cue's entire career, has been com
mended by the federal press.
The attorney general in his letter
shows that the city lost $95,157 in
on*; item of expenditure and says ho
found that the fraud and gross inca
pacity in every department of the
city government was so extraordinary
that it is difficult to find a similar in
stance in the history of municipal
mis management.
A TEST CASE.
Will l>e drought to Deride the Fate of
Fifty Convicts.
Joliet, 111., Jan. 31.—An alleged
technicality in the criminal code may
free 50 Illinois convicts, confined for
manslaughter or criminal assault. It
is asserted that there is no statute
authorizing punishment for thes*
crimes. A test case will be tried soon
in the Will county court by applica
tion for a writ of habeas corpus.
In 1895 the Illinois legislature
passed the indeterminate sentence
law for all felonies except murder
and treason and repealed all incon
sistent laws. The next session of the
legislature took manslaughter and
criminal assault from the list of pen
alties punishable under the indeter
minate sentence act, anil ft>r these
crimes fixed a definite period. It is
contended that the indeterminate
sentence law repealed all other laws
applying to these crimes and that the
following act struck them from the
code altogether.

for the Disaster.
Tucson, Ariz., Jan. 29. —A disastrous
collision occurred on the Southern
Pacific railroad early yesterday morn
ing between two passenger trains.
The wreck occurred near Vailsburg,
Ariz., 17 miles east of this city, and
details as to the cause are difficult to
obtain. Both trains at full speed
came together with a terrific crash.
The engines and cars were piled up
in a mass and immediately took tire
from the exploding oil tanks of the
engines. The flames were communi
cated to the cars, eleven of which
were consumed.
Following is a list of the dead, as
far as obtainable at this hour: J. M.
Hilton, Cambridge, Mass.
J. W. Bruce, engineer. {
W. R. Wilkey, engineer.
George McGrath, fireman.
Sixteen dead unidentified. !
Seriously injured:
Frederico Romero, Juarez, Mex.
11. W. Hartman, Saginaw, Mich.
'Frederick Donahue, Battle Creek,
Mich.
Ben Sawyer, mail clerk.
A. B. Silverton, New Y'ork.
G. S. Gilbert, fireman.
P.en Bradsford, Mayhill, N. Y.
Among the injured are also S. F.
GHdden, Cambridge, Mass., and Dr.
Meyers, Springfield, Ohio.
Manager Aglar said: "Telegrams
received from Tucson say that the
collision took place before light this
morning and it was caused by the
negligence of the telegraph operator
at Esmond, a station 14 miles east of
Tucson. The westbound train, called
the Sunset Limited, was two hours
late. The eastbound train was the
Crescent City express, which left the
Oakland Mole at 10 o'clock Monday
morning."
Superintendent Stoufee, of the Tuc
son division, exonerates Kngineers
Bruce and Wallace, as well as Con
ductors Scriven and Parker, who, ho
says, did their duty. He places the
entire responsibility upon Operator
Clough.
Tucson, Ariz., Jan. 30.—The coro
ner's jury empanelled by Coroner
Culver viewed the remains of 14 vie- j
tlms of Wednesday's disaster on the
Southern Pacific near Yail's Station.
The death list numbers 24 and event
ually may reach 35. Identification
was difficult and the body of ,T. M. j
Hilton was the only one identified
with certainty. Other remains are
being taken from the ruins. It ap
pears to lie impossible to ascertain
the names of many of the victims.
The total injured as far as heard

A WARM DEBATE.
Senators Ilu Willi* anil Bcvcrldtie l lnsti
In the Senate Oiumber.
Washington, Jan. 29. —A sharp de
bate was precipitated in the senate
yesterday when Mr. Rawlins called
up his resolution offered Tuesday, di
recting the secretary of war to fur
nish the senate the proceedings of a
number of courts martial in the Phil
ippines. In the course of his re
marks Mr. Rawlins referred to the
death of Father Augustin and said
he was murdered in cold blood. This
aroused the ire of Mr. Beveridge, who
demanded specifically to know who
had committed the cold blooded mur
der. Mr. Carmack entered the debate
and characterized the charge, which,
he said, repeatedly had been made
that the democrats were assailing tin
army as the "meanest and dirtiest"
of any that had been made against
the party. Mr. Proctor defended
Captain Cornelius M. Brownell, who
had been mentioned In the Rawlins
resolution as being resposible for
Father Augustin's death.
Investigation t'onel tided.
Boston, Jan. 29.—The investigation
of the New Kngland coal situation by
the committee on merchant marine
and fisheries of the national house of
representatives, which was begun
here last Monday, was concluded yes
terday. Members of the committee
state that the hearing proved satis
factory, especially in establishing the
fact that a combination has existivl
between coal operators to raise
prices. The testimony yesterday de
veloped evidence showing that coal
costing from $5.00 to $0.50 a ton had
been sold at from sl2 to slt>.

London, Jan. 30.—Great Britain,
Germany and Italy have sent a joint
reply to Minister Bowen refusing: to
accept the proposal that all thu
countries having' claims against Ven
ezuela should be placed on an equal
ity with t'he three co-operating pow
ers.
Washington, Jan. 30.—There was a
pause in the Venezuelan negotiations
yesterday that approached perilously
near a breach and the end is not yet
in sight. It all grows out -of the at
titude of the allies in insisting upon
preferential treatment for themselves
in the settlement of their claims. As
foreshadowed in the London dis
patches, Mr. liowen has been in
formed of the. decision of the allies
to insist upon adhering to this claim
and he has come to a stand iu his
work for the moment.
Venezuela's plight at this moment
lies in the fact that she is between
two fires. The allies demand prefer
ential treatment, while France and
other creditors look .to Venezuela for
fair treatment, pointing out that to
discriminate against their claims
when their attitude had been corrupt
and even magnanimous, would not be
fair treatment.
The Venezuelan situation, especial
ly the attitude of Germany, was dis
cussed by the senate committee on
military affairs yesterday and the
situation influenced the committee
on some matters pertaining to the
army appropriation bill, among
which was the decision to accept the
house provision relating to trans
ports so that they would be retained
in the service.
The committee also provided for an
increase of electricians, skilled gun
ners, machinists and sergeants and
others who take care of and handle
guns in sea coast defenses.
The discussion was general and
earnest and the conclusion reached
was that the LTnited States should
make it plain that the honor and dig
nity of the country would be main
tained, and that Germany should not
be allowed to "bluff" the government
by any attitude she might assume.
Washington, Jan. 31. —The Eu
ropean allies have not yet answered
Minister Bowen's propositiou made
several days ago that there shall be
no preference of claims of Great Bri
tain, Germany and Italy against Ven
ezuela over those of other nations.
Mr. Bowen has addressed a note to
the allies which might be regarded
as an ultimatum. He said to the al
lies that if they persisted in their de
termination to receive preferential
treatment he would call together the
other creditor nations to protest
against the nllies' demands.

Indianapolis, Jan. 27. —The report
of the tellers on the recent election
of national officers of the United
Mine Workers, by the recently taken
referendum vote was made Monday,
showing that John Mitchell, who had
no opposition for president, received
55,032 votes and W. B. Wilson, who
had no opposition for secretary-treas
urer, received 56,251 votes.
Vice President T. L. Lewis, of Ohio,
was re-elected over T. D. Nicholls, of
Pennsylvania.
Tiie special committee on defense
fund recommended the establishment
of a large defense fund, but did not
deem it advisable at this time to es
tablish a national fund. Owing to the
unorganized condition of the miners
in many of the districts, it was
thought best to continue the ten
cents per month assessment for an
other year. The committee advo
cated that each district accumulate
and maintain a fund until it becomes
sufficiently large to meet any crisis.
The report of the special commit
tee on injunction went into the his
tory of the operation of injunctions
and after •showing the abuses to
which the injunction had contrib
uted, recommended that President
Mitchell appoint a committee of two
togo to Washington and use its in
fluence to secure the passage of the
anti-injunction bill.
Indianapolis, Jan. 2S.—The mine
workers completed their business and
adjourned yesterday. The convention
has been the most harmonious ever
held. Many important measures have
been acted upon. Among them are
the formulation of the demand for an
increase of wages of 12'/ a cents flat
per ton on a run-of-mine basis and a
flat differential of seven cents per
ton between pick and machine mined
coal.
