HAS FILED EXCEPTIONS.
J. F. Hammes Objects to Charter
Being Granted Stonecutters.
J. P. Hammes, t,ecretary of the local
Stonecutters' union, Saturday filed ex
ceptions to the issuance of a charter to
the Scranton Stonecutters' union, who
applied for such some time ago. In his
exception Hammes states that the ap
plicants are former members of the
Stonecutters' union who violated Its
regulations and after leaving the union
are now endeavoring to disrupt it.
He claims they are desirous of using
a charter as u idoak and, not being
union men, represent themselves as
such. Hammes ulso states that ir the
charter was granted the society would
not be recognized by the national asso
ciation. The granting of a charter
would, he argues, rause turmoil and
confusion in distinguishing the appli
cants fiom the present Stonecutters'
union, and would result In annoyance
and inconvenience.
The application Is defective, he says,
in not stating the manner of the ac
complishment of Its purpose, and no
provision being made for thn u cation
of a membership and the manner of
succession.

the Cuban constitutional convention
was held hero and attended by twonty
flve delegates. Among the absentees

tion recommending the convention to
accept the amendment, with a proviso
that the United States government
should make a reduction of fifty per
cent. In the duty on Cuban products,
or at least make a preference In their
favor over similar products from other
countries. The resolution was tabled
without discussion.
The majority report of the committee
on relations, signed by Senors Gomes,
Sllva und Vllluendos, was read, but
after a discussion, which showed that
a majority of the delegates were op
posed to it, a resolution to lay It on
the table was carried. A similar dis
position was made of reports from
Senors Dequesada, Tamayo, Nunez and
Glbergn.
A motion by Senor Afonteagudo to
appoint a. commission to go to Wash
ington, was defeated by a vote of 13 to
12.
It was finally decided to hold a pub

when un attempt will probably be made
to reconsider the action of the Monte
agudo resolution.

made to elect Senor Zayas, ibut the no
tion of the Ayuntamlento was declared
null and void, owing to the fact that
the resignation of Senor Rodriguez had
not been formally filed.
Senor Zayas and Dr. LaiIs Istevez,
secretary of justice, are the rival can
didates. THE NINTH ANNUAL

Hay l'Yter fot tunty.our .tears, and failed lo
find lellef fiom any of the many doctor's pre
scriptions or aibertisod umedies which I used.
I had almost given up hope, when I began the
Use of IIYOMKI, hich entirelv (ured me,, in four
weeks' lime. MRS. WIM.AKI) AVKItY. .
It is to be hoped that such testimony
and the endorsement of tegular phys
icians coupled u itli proofs obtained
from Oovernment Statistics, Medical
Records and tho United States Health
Reports- will teach those aflllcted with
diseases of the air passages, that their
only hope of recovery lies in using the
new germicide HYOMEI daily, for such
is the case, and those suffering from
consumption who are not cured or fall
to protect their families will soon find
themselves in Quarantine.
I,et It be distinctly understood that
without IIYOMKI any setious case of
c.ituirh, bronchitis or consumption
cannot be peinianently cuted, that it
is the only germicide which will de
stioy the germs of these diseases and
thu only one which uatuie permits to
enter the bronchial tubes or lungs.
Coughs, cold and croup can last but
a fuw hours when the air passages are
filled with HYOMEI. Catarrh, bron
chitis, asthma and consumption cannot
exist where It is breathed dally.
HYOMEI is guaranteed and your
money refunded In every enso where it
falls to cure. Sold 'by all druggists or
sent by mull. Price, complete outfits
$1.00. Trial outllts 2,-ic. Five days'
treatment free.
