Heads Confer
Philadelphia, June 26. What vir
tually amounts to a proposition that
the Pennsylvania Railroad will buy
about 6.000,000 tons of soft coal at
$2.85 per gross ton at the mine is
about to be laid before operators of
mines in Pennsylvania Railroad terr
ritopy as the result of a conference
held yesterday. About seventy-Jive
producers and shippers over the Penn
sylvania system met in the Bellevue-
Stratford for the sole purpose of tak
ing concerted action against the
method of placing cars at the mines.
According to the statements of these
operators, it has been the custom of
the railroad to place cars during the
last three days of each week for its
own coal supply only.
It was said that the operators had
become convinced that refusal to load
on the last three days of each week
was impracticable, and that in the in
terests of getting a car supply for the
first three days they have been loading
for the railroad at prices set by the
railroad officials. These prices, it was
said, were as much as $2.50 a ton be
low the market.
The trouble, it was said, arose from

What Senator Mason Says
CHICAGO, ILL.
GENTLEMEN:
I have often said I would never recommend medi
cine of any kin.d. I believe that the doctor's place.
However, after the hardest political campaign of
my life, without a chance for a vacation, I had been
starting to court every morning with that horrible
tired feeling one cannot describe. I was advised to
try Nuxated Iron. As a pioneer in the_ food and
drug legislation I was at tirst loath to try an ad
vertised remedy, but after advising with my medical
friends, I gave it a test. The results have been so
beneficial in my own case, I made up my mind to
let my friends know about it, and you are at liberty
to publish this statement if you so desire. I am
now 65 years of age and I feel thafr a remedy which
will build up the strength and increase the power
of endurance of one at my age, should be known to
the world.
Tours very truly,
Senator Mason's statement in regard
to Nuxated Iron was shown to sev
eral physicians who were requested to
give their opinions thereon.
Dr. Howard James, late of The
Manhattan State Hospital of New
York and formerly Assistant Physi
cian Brooklyn State Hospital, said:
"Senator Mason is to me commended
on handing out this statement on
Nuxated Iron for public print. There
are thousands of men and women who
need a strength and blood-builder but
do not know what to take. There is
nothing like organic Iron—Nuxated
Iron —to give Increased strength, snap,
vigor and staying power. It enriches
the blood, brings roses to the checks
of women and is an unfailing source
of renewed vitality, endurance and
power for men who burn up too rap
idly their nervous energy in the stren
uous strain of the great business
competition of the day."
Fornior Health Commissioner Wil
liam R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago,
says: "I have taken Nuxated Iron
myself and experienced Its health
giving and strength-building effect,
and in the Interest of public.welfare
I feel It my duty to make known the
resuits of its use. I am well past
my threescore years, and want to say
that I believe my own great physical
activity is largely due to-day to my
personal use of Nuxated Iron. Krotn
my own experience with Nuxated Iron,
1 feel it is such a valuable remedy
that it ought to be used in every
hospital and prescribed by every phy
sician in this country."
Dr. E. Sauer. a Boston physician
who has studied abroad in great
European medical institutions, said:
"Senator Mason is right. As I have
said a hundred times over, organic
Iron is the greatest of all strength
bulldeis." '
"Not long ago a man came to nie

and asked me to give him a pre

TUESDAY EVENING,
the fact that the Pennsylvania Rail'
road, which last year consumed about
11,000,000 tons and which this year
will require about 13,000,000 tons, has
contracted for a little less than 7,000,-
000 tons for delivery over the coal
year beginning April 1. The failure
to contract before April 1 was due to
the fact that the railroad declined to
pay the coal men's prices, which were
said yesterday to have been about
$2.65 per gross ton. The result was
that on April 1 the road had covered
on about half of its needs, and has
since added some small tonnages.
I'ennny Will Help
The present method of procuring
fuel for its needs worked such a hard
ship. in the view of operators, that
the meeting was held yesterday and a
committee was named to confer with
the railroad authorities. This com
mittee saw the railroad heads, and
while the committee was in no posi
tion to close for any definite tonnage
from any operator its members were
able to obtain a statement from the
railroad men that if operators not now
holding railroad contracts would fur
nish the additional 6,000,000 tons re
quired by the road at $2.85 gross the
railroad would entertain the proposi
tion and discontinue the present
method of placing cars the last three
days of each week.
CALLS ON IiIEUT. GOVERNOR
Miss Kathryne Frlck, the deaf

with the blood pressure of a boy of
twenty and as full of vigor, vim and
vitality as a young man; in fact, a
young man he really was, notwith
standing his age. The secret, lie said,
was taking organic iron—Nuxated
Iron had lliled him with renewed life.
At thirty he was in bad health; at
forty-six he was careworn unci nearly
all in. Now at fifty, after taking
Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vitality and
his face beaming with the buoyancy
of youth. Iron is absolutely neces
sary to enable your blood to change
your food Into living tissue. With
out it, no matter how much or what
you eat, your food merely passes
through you without doing you any
good. You don't get the strength out
of it, and as a consequence you be
come weak, pale and sickly looking,
just like a plant trying to grow in
a soil deficient in iron."
Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, visiting
Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital,
New York City, said: "I have never
before given out any medical infor
mation or advice for publication, as I
ordinarily do not believe in it. But
In the case of Nuxated Iron 1 feel I
would be remiss in my duty not to
mention It. I have taken it myself
and given it to my patients with most
surprising and satisfactory results.
And those who wish quickly to in
crease their strength, power and -en
durance will find it a most remarkable
and wonderfully effective remedy."
NOTE—Nuxated Iron, which was
used by Senator Mason with suoll
surprising results and which is pre
scribed and recommended above by
physicians in such a great variety of
cases, Is not a patent medicine nor
secret remedy, but one which is well
known to druggists, and whose Iron
constituents are widely prescribed bv
eminent physicians both in Kurop'e
and America. Unlike the older Jnor
ganlc Iron products it is easily assim

them black, nor upset the stomach;
on the contrary. It Is a most potent

POLICE HEAD
GETS KNOCKOUT
Home From Honeymoon, He
Is Given Handsome
Silver Set
Captain of Police Paul L. Barclay
of the Philadelphia division of the
Pennsylvania Railroad was knocked
speechless late yesterday afternoon
when held up by members of his
own force. Harry C. Baum, assist

captain with a handsome silver set.
It was a gift from the department.
Captain Barclay was married re

From the Congressional Direc
tory published by the United States
Government- "Win. E. Mason, Sen
ator from Illinois, was elected to
the 50th Congress in 1887, to the
51st Congress in 1891—defeated for
the 52nd Congress 1892 —Elected
Senator to the 55th Congress 1897
to 1903."
Senator Mason Is now Congress
man from the State of Illinois.
Senator Mason's championship of
Pure Food and Drugs legislation,
his tight for the rural free delivery
system, and his strong advocacy of
all bills favoring labor and the
rights of the masses as against
trusts and combines, make him a
national figure at Washington and
endeared him to the hearts of the
workingman and the great masses
of people throughout the United
States. Senator Mason has the dis
tinction of being one of the really
big men of the nation. His strong
endorsement of Nuxated Iron must
convince anv intelligent thinking
reader that it must be a prepara
tion of very great merit and one
which the Senator feels is bound to
be of great value to the masses of
people everywhere, otherwise he
could not afford to lend his name
to it especially after his strong ad
vocacy of pure food and drugs
legislation.

such groat confidence in Nuxated Iron
that they offer to forfeit SIOO.OO to
any charitable institution if they can
not take any man or woman under
sixty who lacks Iron, and increase
their strength 100 per cent, or over in
four weeks' time, provided they have
no serious organic trouble. They also
