CAPTAIN O'SEIL FAYOES DIKING. Pour Locke in the Hardly be Ohio River Sufficient Would A BAILKOADEE FATORS WAfERWAIS The recommendation of Colonel Merrill lo the River and Harbor Committee, to build four more dams, on the style of the Davis Island dam, between Pittsburg and "Wheeling, revives somewhat the drooping hopes of rivermen, who have prayed these many years for a free and navigable river. It was the chief topic of conversation yes terday in the coal offices and along the wharf. The majority of the rivermen have implicit confidence in the ability and in tegrity of Colonel Merrill, and his latest proposition to the Government meets with their general approval. The rapid strides made by the railroads in recent years have thrown into the shade the merits ot the more snail like canal, but as the rapacity of railroad managers increases, the necessity of inland water navigation be comes more urgent. WANTS THE BIYEB DIKED. Captain O'Neil has always claimed that the Ohio riTer could be vastly improved Dy diking the stream at a number of places. This method would increase the volume of water, nut every. thing depends on the velocity. Other rivermen prefer the dams. Captain Rodere said yesterday: "I'am glad to see Colonel Merrill make such recommenda tions. It is what we need, not only between Pittsburg and 'Wheeling, but further down the river. Ivot long since, at a meeting where Colonel Merrill made an address to river navi gators, he said he knew these dams woum not be built in this generation, owing to the red tape and slow movements of the Government, but the time would come when the work would be accomplished. It will be done slowly, and he advised us to take what vo could get and wait for the balance. These aams cost large sums and require time to build. Of course with private enterpre they could be constructed iu a short time, but the Government doesn't work that way. I think the Colonel will seenre an appropriation for the dam at Beaver, ar.d even that would greatly help us. We must have inland naviga tion as an offset to the railroads. HAS CONFIDENCE IN MEKEILIi. "As to the number ot dams needed between Pittsburg and Wheeling, I have confi jenco in the judgment of Colonel Merrill. He knows the descent of the river, and he wouldn't say that four were required if more were neces sary. Captain Joseph Walton said: "I didn't know that Colonel llernll had asked for an appropri ation for four dams. It is pleasant news to me. We need them badly. I will indorse anything about the river that Colonel Merrill proposes. He understands his business thoroughly. The Government should slackwater the entire river and make it free. The success of the floatirg dams has been demonstrated. What is badly needed is better supervision of our inland streams and their shores. Men have no right to fill up the banks, and make mill sites out of property that doesn't belong to them. Now it would be just as easy for Uncle Sam to bnild these four dams all at once, as to begin on one and then waste menev on it, by delays and petty interferences. I don't understand why the Government can't execute business with the promptness of indi viduals. Ilut the advantae.es to Pittsburg of Elack water on the entire Ohio are too apparent to be again pointed out." rOCE DAMS NOT ENOUGH. Captain James A. Henderson, Snperintcn dentoftbo Pittsburg and Cincinnati packet line, said: "I wouldn't like to say at what points the dams should be located. That is a question for the engineers, and I suppose Colonel Merrill has figured that out. lam afraid four would be hardly enough between the two points named. Navigation is worse between Pittsbnrg and Wheeling than any where else along the river on account of the heavy fall. It is difficult to maintain a fair stage of water, Lecauseitruns away so fast. From Wheeling to Cincinnati the descent Is more gradual, and the result is that navigation is open generally to Wheeling from the South during tne dry season, from two weeks to a month longer than to Pittsburg. After that the water becomes so low that in goinc up stream you can't even reach Wheeling, and Pittsburg is out of the swim. ICE CAUSES THE TROUBLE. "For the last ten seasons through ice and the dry weather navigation with all kinds of boats has been interrupted about fire mouths out of tbo year. On an average the ice interferes with us for six weeks, and with dams probably that could not be avoided, but sec what we are now losing in the other four months when there is no water. A series of dams wonld avoid this waste, and maintain communication with the South ana West. "When the dams are built to Wheeling they need to b3 continued as far as Cairo. Below the West Virginia city they could be located farther apart. Dams are sadly needed between Cincinnati and Cairo. There are points be tween these two places that cannot be passed over in dry weather. It 11 surprising how much traffic is carried on the Ohio river. We have built up a large freight business, and our liacket lines tend to keep railroad rates at a reasonable figure. If we could run all the year around, our tonnage and receipts would be heavier. Others lose as we do during the dry season, and statisticians can easily estimate just what slips by Pittsburg every year because the ri crs are not improved." PILOT SANFOKD'S VIEWS. T. 8. Sanford, the pilot of the new Keystone State, the finest packet boat running from Pittsburg to Cincinnati, knows every inch of the Ohio river. He thinks that two dams are required between this city and Beaver. He does not approve entirely of Captain O'Neil's plan to dike the river, though that could bo done to good advantage at certain places. Hikes near a dam produce too much side draught, and boats are drawn into the swift current, swept over the dams and wrecked. This was tbo fault at Marietta Island, where so much coal was lot some ears ago. Collector Warrccastlc, who is an old freight man and thoroughly posted on railwajs, was caught for a moment at the Duquesne. He said it was a good thing to slack-water the Ohio to keep tbo railroads in line. The dam scheme Is feasible, and they could be easily built at an enormous outlay, it is true but the invest ment would pay. Freight from this territory conld be snipped to the Mississippi, and by that river could reach the North and North west. If the water was assured all the vear around shippers could easily arrange their contracts to have the freight delivered at a cer tain time. He realized that the railroads would fight hard to prevent inland navigation, and their millions invested in plants and rolling stock would spur them on to great activity in lieadingioff any inroads into their revenues. Mr. Warmcastle believes, however, that the rivers should be utilized and that better trans portation by water is needed. Cheap Rates to the Weal Via St. Louis nnd the Missouri Pacific Ity.

The Great Work Performed for Mr. Frederick Raetz. HIS TESTIMONY GIVEN IN FULL "Two years is along time to suffer from a trouble and not be able to obtain a rem edy to check its progress. That was my case exactly," said Mr. Frederick Baetz. "My trouble commenced with a cold at first, caused by exposure at my work. Cold fol lowed cold. My head ached constantly, and my nose discharged a thin, acrid fluid. "I remained in this condition for some time, then I noticed that the trouble was extending through my whole system. My eyes were weak and watery. I could feel the mucus dropping into my throat. There were constant buzzing sod roaring noises in my ears. Mr. Frederick Hattz, 118 Spring Garden Avenue, "1 conld not sleep at night. The mucus would fill up my throat, and I would have to sit up and hawk and raise in order to obtain relief. Night sweats set in and weakened me terribly. Such nights as these left me entirely unfit for work. I would ansa in the morning feellneunrefresbed, in fact more tired than when I went to bed. My throat was so inflamed and sore that 1 could not eat anything in the mornings. I had no desire for lood; the very sight ot it caused a nausea at my stomach. "Sharp pains would shoot through my chest, stabbing like a knife, often so severe as to cause me to gasp for breath. There was a feel ing in mv stomach as of a heavy weight pressing down. My heart would beat rapidlr. The palpitation would be followed by a slow, irreg ular beating and a feeling of faintness. I grew weaker and weaker. Tho slightest exertion would make me short of breath. When I wonld stoop over and raise up qnickly 1 would become dizzv. and was often comnelled to sit down until this feeling nassed away. " "My body was racked with aches and painR, and 1 despaired of ever getting well. I bad read with interest of the wonderful success Drs. Copeland & Blair were having with cases similar to mine, and decided there was the place for me to eo. I foundtheir charges lower than the prices of patent medicine, and placed myself nnder their care. "My progress was truly marvelous, and I can not say enough in favor of their treatment. My head is now clear, and no longer aches me. The roaring in my ears, dropping in the throat and pains in my chest have all ceased to bother me. I sleep well and can eat a hearty break fast. I am now feeling as well as I ever as, and owe this change to Drs. Copeland A Blair." Mr. Raetz lives at No. 118 Spring Garden avenue, Allegheny. He is employed as a glass blower at the works of Messrs. J. T. it A. Hamilton, Twenty-sixth and Railroad streets, Pittsburg, and this statement can be easily verified. HOME TREATMENT. Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman, Pa., in speaking of bis catarrhal trouble, said: Mv head was stopped up. My throat, chest and lungs affected, and I bad lost all sense of taste and smell, when I was advised to try Drs. Cope land & Blair. The result was a surprise to me. J. ?m now perfectly well, and owe my recovery to their treatment. Some time ago Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hnlton, Allegheny county. Pa., commenced a course of home treatment for his catarrhal trouble, un der the care of Drs. Copeland & Blair. At that time bis trouble had assumed a very aggravated form. He stated to the writer as follows: "My nostrils would clog up. , My head ached constantly. I bad severe pains in my chest. There was a dropping of mncus from my bead to my throat. I had night sweats. My bean would palpitate rapidly, and be followed by a slow, irregular beating and feeling of faintness. I was daily growing weaker. The slightest ex ertion tired me and I was unfit for work." "How do you feel nowf" "Like another being.

That something may be better goods, handsom'er styles or lower prices. In our case it is a combination of these three causes to which our truly phenomenal success in the Cloak Trade must be attributed. Come in at present, for instance. What do you see ? A few new spring styles and a big lot of super annuated affairs? Not much ! The truth is, ours is the only house in this city showing a brand new and complete stock of new spring garments. Take Ladies' Suits and s the fit season of onr handle n r , these goods. Couldn t very well show any- DreSSeS for an example thing old thencould we? And yet, al though we are entire novices in the Ladies' Suit and Dress business, we already have made a record for ourselves of which any old house might well be proud. We commenced the business several weeks ago by introducing the now celebrated Ladies' Jersey Suits at S2.75 and $4. We have sold thousands of them since, and yet the demand steadily increases. In finer and finest dresses we are showing all the latest novelties of the sea son. Woolen Flannel Dresses at S3.50 and S4.50. Cashmere Dresses from 7 up. Heavy French Ottoman Silk Dresses proportionately low. SPRING JACKETS, CAPES AND WRAPS. See our great specialty: Fine Tailor-made Jackets, with high shoul der cap sleeves, Marie Antoinette and Marie Stuart collars, fine all-wool materials, at only $5. At this same price of $5, we have a beautiful variety of five-fold London Capes in exquisite light and dark materials. In Lace, Silk and Cloth Wraps, also Wraps for elderly Ladies, our new spring stock is marvelously large. SPRIXG GARMENTS FOR MISSES MD CHILDREN. Girls' beautiful White Lawn and Swiss Easter Dresses for Confirma tion or First Communion. Girls' Reefer Jackets. Children's Spring Wraps, Cloaks and Coats. Infants' Undergarments and Bootees; Christ ening Slips, Gowns and Caps. A large stock of White and Colored Dresses. ABOUT 150 MORE PLUSH SACQUES Are still left from our recent half-price sale.
