man and press correspondent in

the following TfflTWlt of the dluitff It
Galveston
One of the most awfnl tragedies of
modern tiro. - h: - visited Galveston.
"Tfce city ]:- in ruins and the dead will
number probaMy a thousand. 1 am
Just from the city, having b»-en com
missioned by the mayor and citizens'
committee to re' in tonch with the
outside world and appeal for help.
Houston was th«* nearest p tint a< whb h
working tHecraph instruments could
be found, the wires, as well as nearly
all the btiiliings t»et*"een here and the j
Gulf of Mexico being wrecked.
When 1 i '"t (lalvi ston shortly before
noor, iin Sunday the people were organ
itint tor the prompt burial of the dead, i
distribution of food and all necessary
work after •* j• ri i of disaster.
Th» wr«-cV 112 Galveston was brought
abctut by a tempest as terrible that no
words can adequately descril>e its in
tensity and by a flood which turned ;
the city Into a rae'ne sea The weather
bureau re' or .- 'mw that the wind at- ,
tained a ve'.-x-aty of 84 miies an hour
w-hen the r - ;r;r.c instruments blew
away, so it is impossible to tell what
was the Trnxirr.nm
Rt «iNßliis of the Storm.
The storm becan at 5 o'clo. k Satur
day n><>minc. Previous to that a great
storm had been raging in the gulf, and :
the tide wti 5 - very high. The wind at i
first came from the south, and was in
direct opposition to the force from the
gulf While the storm in the gulf
pil«-d the w rer upon the beach side of
the city th< • \ rind piled water !
from the bay onto the hay part of the |
city.
Aboiit noon it became evident that .
the city was colng to be visited with
<Ji«wst. r. Hi.ndrel* of residences along
tfce t«each front were hurriedly a ban- j
doned th. fame's fleeing to dwellings
In higher portions of the city. Every |
home wj ? i ; en«-d to the r- fugees. black
or white. The winds were rising con- 1
stantly :rd it rained in torrents. The '
wind w ; s fo force that the rain cut j
like a knife
By ~ ij'rt K-k the waters of the gulf i
and bay met. and by dark the entire j
city w.ns submerged. The flooding of /
the electric light plant and the gas
gas plants left the city in darkness.
Togo upon the streets was to court
death. The wind was then at cyclonic
velorlty Roofs. cisterns, portions of
trail'lmss. telegraph poles and walls
were fallinr and the noise of the wind
and the crashing of the buildings were
terrifying in the extreme. The wind
nnd waters rose steadily from dark un
til 1:45 o'clock Sunday morning.
During all this time the people of j
GaSve-t n were like rats in traps. The
highc-t portions of the city was four
to five feet under water, while in the
great majority of cases the streets
were submerged to a depth of ten feet.
To leave a house was to drown. To
remain was to court death in the
wreckage Such a night of agony has
seldom been equaled. Without appar
ent reason the waters suddenly began
to subside at 1 45 a. m. Within 20
minutes they had gone down two feet,
and before daylight the streets were
practically freed of the flood waters,
in the IT. ennt;me the wind had veered
to the southeast.
Very Irw llnilillna* K»caped.
Very f*w if any buildings escaped
Injury- There is hardly a habitable
dry house in the city. When the peo
ple who had escaped death went out
at daylight to view the work of the
tempest and the floods, they saw the
most horrible sights imaginable. In
the thr»f blocks from Avenue N to
Avenue P. tn Tremont street. I saw
eight Ixxlies. Four corpses were in one
yard.
The whole of the business front for
three blocks in from the gulf was strip
ped of every vestige of habitation, the
dwellings, the great bathing establish
ments. the Olympia and every struc
ture having lieen either carried out
to sea or its ruins piled in a pyramid
far into the town, according to the
vagaries of the tempest.
Th< first hurried glance over the city
showed that the largest structures,
supposed to be the most substantially
built, stiffen d the greatest. The Or
phans' Home. Twenty-first and Avenue
M, fell like a house of cards. How
many dead children and refugees are
in the ruins could not be ascertained.
Of the sick in St. Mary's Infirmary, to
gether with the attendants, only eight
are understood to have been saved.
The Old Woman's Home, on Rosen
berg avenue, collapsed, and the Rosen
berg school house is a mass of wreck
age. The Rail high school is but an
empty wall, crushed and broken. Ev
ery church in the city with possibly one
or two exceptions is in ruins.
At the fort nearly all (he soldiers
are reported dead, they having been In
temporary quarters, which gave them
no protection against the tempest or
the flood.
At military headquarters, depart
ment of Texas, at San Antonio, the in
formation is that of 120 men stationed
at Fort San Jacinto, Galveston, only
15 escaped. Further infromation is
that the captain In command is among
the victims. Lieut. Col. C. S. Roberts,
adjutant general, department of Tex
as, is in Galveston on a tour of in
spection. It is not known if he is
among the small number at the fort
*ho escaped.
No report has been received from the
Catholic Orphan asylum, down the isl
and, but it seems impossible that it
could have withstood the hurricane.
If it fell all the inmi.tcs were no doubt
lost, for there was no aid within a mile.
The bay front from end to end is in
ruins. Nothing but piling and the
wreck of great warehouses remain.
The elevators lost all their upper
works,, and their stocks are damaged
by water.
' The life saving station at Fort Point
was carried away, the crew being
swept across the bay 14 miles to
Texas City. I saw Capt. Haines, and he

The shore at Texas City contains
■enough wreckage to rebuild a city.
Eight persons whom were swept across
the bay during the storm were picked
up there alive. Five corpses were also j
picked up. There were three fatalities J

Of the Rurnett family only one is

The family of Stanley G. Spencer,
who met death in the Cotton Exchange

Thirteen were killed in one building

Ocean Stp«mrr» Stranded.
Eight ocean steamers were torn from
their moorings and stranded in the
bay. The Kendall Castle was carried
ovr the flats. Thirty-third street
wharf, to Texas City, and lies in the
wreckage of the Inman pier. The Nor
wegian steamer Gyller is stranded be
tween Texas City and Virginia Point.
An ocean liner was swirled around
through the west bay. crashed through
the bay bridges, and is now lying in a
few feet of water near the wreckage
of the railroad bridges. The steam
ship Taunton was carried across Pell
can Point, and is stranded about ten
miles up the east bay. The Mallory
steamer Alamo was torn from her
wharf and dashed upon Pelican flats
and against the bow of the British
steamer Ked Cross, which had previ
ously been hurled them. The stern of
the Alamo is stove In and the bow of
the Red Cross is crushed.
Down the channel to the jetties two
other ocean steamships lie grounded.
Some schooners, barges and smaller
craft are strewn bottom side up along
the slips of the piers. The tug Louise,
of the Houston Direct N tvigation com
pany, is also a wreck.
It will take a week to tabulate the
dead and the missing and to get any
thing to an approximate idea of the
monetary loss. It is safe to assume
that one-half of the property of the
[ city is wipfd out, anil lhat one-half
of the residents have to face absolute
poverty.
At Texas City three of the residents
were drowned. There are but few
buildings at Texas (.'ity that do not tell
the story of the storm. The hotel is

Austin. Tex., Sept. 12. —Official re
jmiris from Galveston to Governor Say
ers are that 400 bodies have been
identified, 200 more are in an impro
vised morgue awaiting identification,
and many more are thought to have
i drifted out to sea and their identity
will not be known for weeks. A tele
gram from Adjutant General Scurry,
who is at Galveston, to the governor,
is as follows:
"Have just returned from Texas !
City with several Galveston parties, !
who assure me that conditions there j
. beggar description. Accounts have not '
been exaggerated. One thousand lost ,
is too conservative. While a portion of j
1 the provisions have been destroyed
by water sufficient on hand to relieve
1 immediate necessities. The citizens
' seem to have the situation well in i
hand. United States troops and Com
pany C, volunteer guard, with citizens,
1 patrol the streets to prevent looting.
I respectfully suggest that the distress
is too great for the people of Galveston,
1 even with the assistance of Houston. 1
1 to stand, and that a general appeal for :
help would lie welcomed. The estimate
of 10,000 destitute does not seem to be
excessive."
From reports reaching the governor
1 it will be necessary to co-operate with
1 the federal troops to place all the
mainland opposite Galveston, as well
us the island, under martial law. If
reports reaching here are true thieves
have begun to enter the city for tha
| purpose of pilfering the bodies of the
1 dead. The governor has been inform
ed that the commander of the Texas
troops has been ordered to Galveston |
by the federal authorities and ihe gov
ernor will lend him every assistance
possible with state 1 to keep
vandalism down.
According to reports to the gover
j nor the work of recovering corpses
' continues unabated, and while a nuni
| ber of them are so nritilated that they
i cannot be recognized, they are being
held as long as possible in ihe hope
! of securing their names. Quite a num
| ber of children arc noted aiiio::g t:ie
list.
A large number of state militia tents '
were shipiied from here to Galveston
for temporary use on the island,
j Governor Sayres received upwards
1 of 1,000 telegrams during the day from !
j parties in the west and east offering j
assistance to the flood sufferers at Gal
veston. and from various portions of
the state reporting the collection of
money and supplies. A telegram from j
1 New York informed the governor that !
two relief trains of supplies had left :
New York for Galveston.
Approximately one-third of the resi- j
denee portion of the city has been
swept away. There are several thou- ,
sand people who are homeless and des- {
titute. How many there is no way of
finding out. Arrangements are now j
being made to have the women and
children seat to Houston and other j
places, but the means of transportation
are limited. Thousands are still to be
cared for at Galveston.
More bodies have been picked up on I
the beach at Virginia Point and Texas !
City, and searching parties are now ,
getting into the country between the j
two points. One member of the life |
saving crew says he believes that not 1
one-third of the dead bodies are being |
recovered. Many sank before reaching ,
the beach, and he believes that a week
will pass before the bay gives up all
the dead.
A man just arrived from Galveston ■
says that bodies are being cast into the !
gulf with weights attached as the best I
method of disposing of them, while '
others are being buried In the sand
where found. Many of these are un
identified. and so the death list will
never be known. Scores of people are
trying to get into Galveston. Many of
them claim relaives there, but It is
not possible to reach that city at pres
ent. All of the small boats and tugs
in the bay have been taken down the
bay to be used in ferriage.
The great storm covered a large
area of the cotton growing section of
Texas and did tremendous damage to
the crop. A traveling man who covers 1
a big area of the state reports that for {
a hundred miles west of Houston the
wind and storm have wrought great
havoc, and all chances for a crop have
been destroyed. Southwtst of Houston
the fields are ruined. In large cotton
growing counties around Houston it i 9
said crops have been beaten into the
ground and are worthless.
AN APPEAL FROM GALVESTON.
It Nuy» the I.oa* of l.lfe Will Iteaeh
Three ThouMnnd.
Galveston, Sept. 12. —The following
statement of conditions at Galveston
and appeal for aid is issued by the local
relief committee, headed by Mayor W.
C. Jones:
"A conservative estimate of the loss
of life is that it will reach 3,000. At
least 5,000 families are shelterless and
wholly destitute and the entire re
mainder of the population is suffering
in greater or less degree. Not a single
church, school or charitable institu
tion, of which Galveston had so many,
is left intact. Not a building escaped
damage, and half the whole number
were entirely obliterated. There is im
mediate need for food, clothing and
household goods of all kinds. If near
by cities will open asylums for women '
and children the situation will be I
greatly relieved. Coast cities should '
send us water as well as provisions, in
cluding kerosene oil, gasoline and can- ;
dies." '•
Some order is being brought out of '
chaos, and something like a systematic '
attempt is being made to clear the •
debris and remove the dead. Idlers are 1
being pressed into service at the point '
of the bayonet and made to work, and
a military cordon is being drawn
tighter and tighter about the place. 1
Every horse and mule that was left '
In the city Is In service. Supplies are (
coming in from Houston, and the first (
line of communication with the outside
world was opened yesterday via Texas
City. Large forces are working on the ]
railroads, and in a few days the people j
of Galveston believe the situation will (
be greatly improved.
Among the saddest of many sad In- |
cidents of the storm was the loss of the
families of two police officers while the j
husbands and fathers were engaged in
rescue work. Officers Joe Bird and 1
John Rowan were assigned to rescue
work in the East End early Saturday t
afternoon, and together with other oft
fleers they worked faithfully to succor (
waterbound families near the gulf. |
They rescued about 100 people from the ,
fury of the storm. They returned to .
the station only when the high water j
floated the patrol wagon and threaten
ed to drown the team of horses attach
ed to it. They had no idea that the ,
waters of the gulf had invaded the p
western portion of the city, where |
they lived, until they returned to the (
police station and heard the report. \
Rowan and Bird started immediately ;i
for their homes, but their families had 112
been swept away. Officer Bird lost his
wife and five children and Officer Row- u
. an his wife and three children.

Tien Tsin, Sept. via Nagasaki. Sept.
10. —The Americans and British are
considering the feasibility of transfer
ring their winter supply base from
Tong-Ku to a point msar Shan-Hai-
Kwan. on the Gulf of Liao-Tung, which
1 is free of ice and is also a railway ter
minus. The chief difficulty in the way
of the project is the lack of troops to
guard the railway.
Itoxers are reported massing along
the grand canal.
A Christian refugee from Pao-Ting-
Fu. where I'ekin officials were enlisting
j troops when he left, asserts that he
I saw a large force of Boxers between
Pekin and Pao-Ting-Fu.
He also brings authoritative news of
' the massacre by provincial soldiers of
; the American missionaries at Fen-
Cfcow-I : \ng. 15. Mr. Atwaterand
his wife, with their two children, Mr.
Legren and his wife and Miss English
were beheaded.
He also ion firms the report of the
killing of 'l'.', members of the English
mission :n Tai-Yuan-Fu. At Tai-Ku,
where Miss Coombs \\&t> throwu into
the flames of the burning mission
buildings, and where ten French priests
were killed, all the members of the
American mission were exterminated,
the men making a gallant defense un
til their ammunition was exhausted.
He says there is no doubt that Miss
Whitechurch and Miss E. E. Searell
were Burdered at Hsiayo, and he con
firms the reported massacre of Miss
French and Miss Palmer, as well as
hundreds of native Christians in the
Chi-Shien district of the province of
Shan-Si.
The same refugee, giving further de
tails as to the condition of the party
of foreigners already reported as under
siege. Aug. 25, by Chinese regulars in
the province of Shan-Si, says that the
party consisted of four priests, five
nuns, five European engineers and sev
eral missionaries, and that they were
surrounded by troops who had retreat
ed from Pekin. On the date in ques
tion the foreigners were entrenched in
the French cathedral.
The latest reports received here from
Pekin say that the empress dowager is
in th • province of Shan-Si, and that
the Japanese are pursuing her.
The British marines and two naval I
guns have been withdrawn on ship
board.
Thirty-five villages in the vicinity
of Tien Tsin have petitioned the pro
visional government for protection.

London, Sept. 12. —The Times pub
lishes this morning additional advices
from its i'ekin correspondent, Dr. Mor
rison, under date of Aug. 31. "The
censorship, which is under Sir Alfred
Caselee's control, makes it difficult,"
says the correspondent, "to convey a |
true picture of the present situation in
Pekin. Today the foreign community
was thrilled with horror at the news
of the massacre of the missionaries at
Pao-Ting-Fu, who were under the pro
tection of the imperial troops. Chil
dren were butchered before the eyes of
their parents. White women were
ravished and carried into captivity.
Parents were tortured and murdered.
"Massacres by red Indians never call
in vain for vengeance. Yet the troops
remain here inactive. Their one
thought and wish are to be given work
or to be recalled from Pekin. Surely
the civilized world will not suffer this
cruel massacre to remain unavenged
and make no effort to ascertain the
fate of the poor martyred Christians
and white women.
"Since the relief of the legations one
feature stands conspicuous—the prom
inence of Russia and the overmaster
ing position she is now asserting here.
The pageant in the Forbidden City on
Aug. 28 was a triumphant entry by
Russia, followed by the other powers.
Russia did the honors, greatly to the
chagrin of the other ministers.
"Russian troops are pouring into
Pekin daily. Nineteen hundred came
yesterday and 2,800 the day before. Al
ready the Russians outnumber the Jap
anese, and they will soon outnumber
the combined forces. Their stay is
assuming every characteristic of per
manency. Cossacks daily raid the
country and drive the Chinese peasants
and laborers in herds through the de
serted and dismantled city, setting
them to build their military camp."

Washington, Sept. 12.—Claims ag
gregating $2,300,000 or more have
arisen in connection with the efforts
made, principally in Hawaii, to prevent
the bubonic plague from securing a
foothold in this country and its out
lying possessions by burning down a
considerable part of the Japanese and
Chinese quarter, where it was thought
the disease might find lodgment. Two
thousand Japanese residents are said
to have lost their homes, furniture and
practically all their belongings. Their
ioss is estimated at $300,000. The Chi
nese loss was estimated at about $2,-
#OO,OOO. The authorities here feel that
It is a matter which Hawaii should ad-
Just, but it is hoped that some means
may be adopted by co-operation be
tween Washington and Honolulu for
adjusting the matter.

You can tell just as well as a physician
whether your kidneys are diseased or
healthy. The way to dois to take a bot
tle or glass tumbler, and till it with urine.
It there is a sediment —a powderlike
substance —at the bottom after standing
a day and a night, there is something
wrong with the kidneys. Another sure
sign of disease is a desire to urinate often,
and still another sign is pain in the back.
If urine stains linen, there is no doubt
that the kidneys are affected.
Any anil all diseases of the kidneys,
liver, bladder and of the urinary passag
es and constipation of the bowels are cur
ed by Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy- There is noqnestion about its
being the best and surest medicine in
the world for such troubles. It quickly
relieves and cures inability to hold urine
and people, young or old", who take it
are not compelled to get up a number of
times during the night. For putting an
end to that scalding pain experienced in
passing urine, nothing is MI good as Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. It
corrects the bad eilects of whiskev and
beer; is pleasant to the taste, and does
not scani to be medicine at all. Diseas
es of the kidneys and the bladder often
require the u eof instruments to push
back the sandy matter so the urine can
be voided. In such cases Favorite Rem
edy should be taken without further de
lay or the disease may prove fatal. It is
sold for one dollar a bottle at all drug
stores. It is well worth many times its
price.

! gressman and Mrs. John Dalzell, Mr.
and Mrs. William Gibson of Pittsburg,
i Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Cheney of Bos
ton and Frank A. Munsey.
i It will be a plain, simple wedding.
Said a relative of the McKinleys: "If it
MISS MABEL M'KINLEY.
had been desired to have a swell wed
ding it could have taken place at the
home of the McKinleys in New York
city."
President and Mrs. McKinley's pres
ent to the bride is a highly polished
quarter-oak chest, with silver mount
ings, filled with magnificent table sil
ver, including everything that Mr. and
Mrs. Baer will need in the way of
| spoons, forks, knives, carvers and off
pieces during their lives. The plate
on top of the chest bears the following
inscription; "From Uncle William
and Aunt Ida, Sept. 12, 1900."
Other presents received by the bride
include a generous supply of brilliant
jewels, a bewildering assortment in
silver and cut glass tableware, unique
specimens of the celebrated Favritte
glass, solid gold soup spoons with the
bride's monogram. M. A. M„ artistical
ly moulded in the specially designed
pattern, rare pieces of bronze and
marble candelabra of wondrous beauty
and design, hand decorated china of
great beauty and value, almond sets of
silver work, salad sets both in silver
and china, boullion set of painted china
with delicately chiseled silver holders,
silver bread trays of artistic patterns
and great intrinsic value, pieces of an
tique China and Japanese ware, a mass
of table cutlery, weighty pitchers of
hammered silver of unique design, sil
ver toilet and manicure sets, an end
less variety of rare pieces of bric-a
brac and numberless odd pieces of sil
ver. from bonbon dishes to massive
urns. In addition to the presents
mentioned Miss McKinley has received
a large number of articles for her per
sonal adornment, valuable oil paint
ings, engravings and etchings, table
linen of the finest texture and choice
spec-iments of embroidery.
Saturday it was thought that all of
the presents had been received, but
yesterday the single expressman of the
town was obliged to make two trips
from the express office to the McKin
ley residence in order to deliver Sun
day's accumulations of some fifty
packages, large and small. One large
room in the McKinley house has been
found inadequate to hold the mass of
presents, and everything that has ar
rived since Sunday has been placed in
an adjoining room. It would be hard
to tell which room contains the largest
number or which lot is of the greatest
value. There are enough, however, to
crowd an immense vault. It is a notice
able fact that all of the presents with
few exceptions, those which came from
old Ohio and Pennsylvania friends,
came from the close New York friends
of the family. Less than twenty are
from Washington. Many of the pres
ents are unique in that they are not
to be found in jewelry or silversmith
establishments, but have been made
from specially designed patterns.
A Victim of IteliKioiiN Mania.
Lewiston, Me., Sept. 11. —A large
aumber of men are searching the woods
in this vicinity for Miss Lizzie Bell,
daughter of a citizen of Topeka, Kan.,
who is thought to be suffering from
insanity, due to religious excitement.
About a week ago Miss Bell, who had
been at Shiloh, the institution in Dur
ham, conducted by Evangelist F. W.
Sanford, disappeared, but a few days
later she was found wandering in the
Woods ten miles from Lewiston, de
mented. In a day or two she apparent
ly recovered, but without warning she
again disappeared yesterday. Miss Bell
is about 21 years of age.

Justice Gilbert Collins, in charging the

to reports that had reached him con
cerning the alleged intention of New

Or«l«*r SPIMIIN I NOV«IIIHI»I«'— Th««
lM«*n Confident of Victory.
liazleton, Pa., Sept. 12. Benjamin
James • ' ' st night that the United
M : r ~ , s would not back down,
and that the only outcome would lie a
strike or a satisfactory adjustment of
the miners' grievances. Father Phil
lips left yesterday afternoon for Phil
adelphia and Washington. While hr
refused t< say that his mission was to
confer with the officers of the National
Federation of Labor at the capital, it is
believed here that he will make fur
ther efforts to have the trouble in the
anthracite coal fields settled in an am
icable manner. There is a rumoi
afloat that Father Phillips has had a
conference with President Mitchell in
Philadelphia.
It is reported that about 125 men em
ployed at the Scotch Valley colliery,
15 miles from Hazleton and inacces
sible by either telephone or telegraph
have gone out on strike for highoi
wages. They are not members of th?
United Mine Workers' organization
and it is expected that the trouble will
be settled in a few days.
The superintendents of the Mineral
company and of the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron company, at
Shamokin, were notified from their re
spective executive headquarters yes
terday afternoon that if the men at
the Cameron, Burnside and Henry Clay
collieries goon strike in sufficient
number to cause the operations to be
closed down, then the mules and iron
shall be taken from the operations and
the latter be abandoned. For some
time the collieries had not been pay
ing investments, according to state
ments by the companies. If the three
operations are shut down 3,000 men
and boys will be thrown out of em
ployment.
National Organizer Fred Dilcher, of
the United Mine Workers, arrived at
Scranton yesterday direct from the ses
sion of the national executive board in
Indianapolis, and after learning from
District President Nichols and Secre
tary Dempsey of the unrest and mut
terings of discontent regarding the de
lay of the strike order, framed and
gave out a statement in which he says:
"I ask all men to be patient and to
not discuss your matter.-; on the street,
but do your business in your hall,
which is the proper place. So please
remain at work untii called upon to
stop, and then let all quit and remain
idle until your rights have been grant
ed and justice done to all.
"The matter is now absolutely in the
hand" of President Mitchell, to whom
was delegated all the power necessary
to act in behalf of the board. No man
can yet say what that action will be,
but we have confidence enough to know
that not until the very last effort at
conciliation fails will there be a move
on his part not inconsistent with the
situation."
"How about the funds for the sup
port of the men?" he was asked.
"That is a matter about which we are
not yet bothered," responded Mr. Dil
cher. "We will dispose of that when
the actual necessity arrives. There is
no condition yet which demands of us
any levy, and the present conditions
are substantially provided for. We con
trol absolutely the bituminous region,
and not a pound of coal therefrom will
be allowed to enter into compeition
with the anthracite market if any con
flict results."
STIUKE OKi)i:it IMtOIIAIIL.B.
President Mitchell Declare* It Seems
Xow Inn voidable.
Chicago, Sept. 12. —"I will leave for
Indianapolis tomorrow night, and if
upon arrival there Thursday morning
I fail to hear anything from the oper
ators in New York indicative of their
willingness to meet us in conference,
I shall immediately order a strike."
These were the words of John Mitchell,
president of the United Mine Work
ers of America, last night.
"it is with the greatest reluctance
that 1 take this step," continued Mr.
Mitchell, but nothing else remains for
us to do. It is possible that the oper
ators will at the last moment agree
to arbitrate our difficulties, but I must
say the prospect is most encouraging."
New York'* Democratic Ticket.
Saratoga. N. Y., Sept. 12. —John B.
Stanchfield will be nominated for gov
ernor by the Democratic state conven
tion today and his name will be pre
sented to the convention by Judge S.
S. Taylor, of Chemung. This is the
ticket which seems most probable of
final acceptance: For governor, John
B. Stanchfield of Chemung; lieutenant
governor, William F. Mackey of Erie;
secretary of state, John T. Norton of

DIAMOND DIGEST
TABLETS
Do Destroy Dyspepsia and restore the
bowels and liver to perfectly natural action
promptly, or money refunded tiy aiiy drug
gist.
Gentlemen:—l have been taking your
DIAMOND DIGEST TABLETS for two months
past and am practically a well man for the
flrxt time in 10 years. Everything 1 ate dis
tressed me, more or less, and 1 was all run
down from lack of proper nourishment. I
am eating everything that comes my way
now, without the slightest inconvenience.
Two tablets after a hearty meal and one
after a light meal seem to thoroughly di
gest everything, and I am daily gaining
flesh. My daughter commenced taking
them about two weeks ago for constipation,
and while they do not act as quickly as
some powerful cathartic, they arc punitive.
and much more satisfactory, because they
do not gripe or distress her in any way,
and the relief seems to be of a permanent
nature. All other medicines have left her
in worse condition after taking than before.
D. V. BERGEN, 27 Boyd Ave., Jersey City.
Dear Sirs:—l have taken one box of your
DIAMOND DIGEST TABLETS and they are
the only remedy I have ever found that
stops the HEARTRTTRN. I enclose r>f)e. for
another box. MRS. HENRY CUMMINGS,
Pelican Rapids, Minn.
