MEDICAL Of the United Stat( mends I A ?J.L~- D??.^,;non+ PkiKMoian 11<?P nnuuici i lummoiii. ujoiviu.^ .... and Endorses Pe-ru-na. DR. LLEWELLYN JORDAN, Medical Examiner of the U. S. Treasury Department, graduate of Columbia College, and who served three years at West Point, has the following to say of Peruna: "Allow me to express my gratitude to y&u for the benefit derived from your-wonderful remedy. One short mon thhas brought fo rth a vast change und I now consider myself a well man after months of suffering. Fellow sufferers,Peruna will cure you." A constantly increasing number of physicians prescribe Peruna in their practice. It has proven its merits so thoroughly that even the doctors have overcome their Dreiudice aeainst so-called patent medi cincs and recommead it to their patients.' Peruna occupies a unique position in medical science. It is the only internal ?ystemic catarrh remedy known to the medical profession to-day. Catarrh, as every one will admit, is the cause of behalf the diseases which afflict mankind. Catarrh and11 catarrhal diseases afflict onehalf of the people of the United States. ?*???*?? ?+*????**?*******??****?? ? Robert R. Roberts, M. D., Wash J injrton, D. C., writes: ' "Through my oxen experience I J as well as that of many of my * J friends and acquaintances who J *have been cured or relieved of I ?catarrh by the use of Hart man's J ? Peruna, I can confidently recoup J *mend it to those suffering from I ?such disbrders, and have no hesl- J ?tation in prescribing it to my J > patients."? Robert R.Roberts. J Catarrh is a systemic disease curable only by systemic treatment. A remedy that cures catarrh must aim directly at the depressed nerve centres. This is what Peruna doe*. Peruna immediately invigorates the nenre-centres which gives vitality to the mantis membranes. Then catarrh disappears. Thpn catarrh is permanently cured. Jp;. Torture and Luxury.

Reiehenbenr. wife of the well known jeweller of 146 Fulton St., New York, says: "I had a friend who was justly proud of her complexion. Wnen asked what gave her such a brilliant and lovely complexion, she replied, 'A healthy woman can be sure of a fine skin if she will do as I do, use plenty of Cuticura Soap and water.' She insisted that I follow her example, which I did with speedy conviction. I find that Cuticura Soap keeps the skin soft, white, and clear, and prevents redness and roughness."

I SWEPT AWAY HOUSES AND PIERS I I . j Damage Amounting to Manjr Tlioasandi of Dollars U the Result of the Calamity?Panic Reigned In Hundreds ol I Towns? Meu and Womon Carried oc v' Crest of Wave'Hundreds of Yards. I London. Eng.?Surging shoreward in a monster tidal flood, the sea in the morning swept with terrible force over watering places and other coast towns for a stretch of 260 miles along the whole east coast from Scarborough to Dover. The tidal wave struck Scarborough first, carrying away 800 feet of the magnificent pier there which cost $125,000. All the beautiful prom enades on the front were smashed, Buildings close to the water were undermined and overthrown by the tremendous rush of millions of tons ol water. The wave sent foaming torrents leaping through the streets of the town, hurling men and women againsl buildings, burying children beneati mmintflinmis breakers and brushina horses off the roads like flies from a window pane. Next the giant wave flung itself on Yarmouth, crushing in the doors and windows of hundreds of dwellings and doubtless drowning some of the inmates in their rooms. It was at firsl j impossible to estimate the loss of life, i as wires were down in all directions | through the east seaboard, -and the few I that remained worked badly. Only brief bulletins came through, most ol them in such fragmentary form that difficulty was experienced in dovetailing them. It was known, though, thai i the fine esplanade and beach gardens ' of Yarmouth were swept clean. Enormous blocks of concrete were ripped i from the esplanade and tossed like pebbles against structures that col I lapsed like eggshells under their fu j rious blows. Panic reigned in hundreds on bun dreds of towns and villages along the coast when telephone reports of the .wave's earlier destruction got to them in turn. The inhabitants fled at a moment's notion. Whole villaee9 were depopulated in a quarter-'ijpiir. The fugitives heard behind them the roar ol the flood, the frightful grinding ol ruined seawalls, the cries. -o| those .whose escape seemed hopeless and the crash of falling buildings. Women and men were carried on the crest ol the wave for hundreds of yards, yel escaped with their lives, although in jured severely. One boy was swepl over a quarter-mile of beach and thrown violently against a sand dune His collarbone and left arm were broken. Thousands of persons were hurled high on the slopes of the head lands, others saved themselves, though half drowned, by clinging to the inland flats. Nothing the wave struck withstood Its fury. Iron pillars were wrenched from their bases as if they were rotten .wood. Metal roofs were torn off and steel-braced walls buckled,as if theii foundations were swallowed by ac earthquake. Cars, carriages and cacis floated like chips until .they were smashed to splinters by obstacles against which they were jammed Many dwellings were lifted off the ?1 uuillL auu Laiiiru vui u/ ora. wv.vic; of batli houses were flattened on the sands. Hundreds of beach tents flut tered like distress signals on the great billow's churning front. The loss of life at sm must have been great. All the small bay crafi were driven against the ro?ks and wrecked before their crews had time t< jump. It appears impossible that anj who were.in rowboats when the wave caught them escaped, and even the sailing vessels must have been visited by heavy loss. Keen anxiety was fell for the.fate of coastwise steamboats and for the fishing fleets off the Norfolk shore. It was believed the total ol casualties on land and water would run into large figures. Relief parties have be?u sent from all the neighbor ing cities and towns. ELECTORAL VOTE CAST. Sleeting of Thirty-nine Presidentia Electors of New York State. Albany. N.

COURT ROOM WAS CROWDED It Was Contended That the Parkers Violated the Law by Entering Into an Agreement For Suppressing Competition Both in the Purchase ofliir* Stock and In the Sale of Fresh Bleat. Washington. D. C.?Arguments in the so-called Beef Trust case were concluded in the Supreme Court, Attorney-General Moody appearing for the Government in favor of continuing tlie Injunction issued by Judge Grosscup at Chicago. 111., and Attorney Miller closing the case in favor of Swift, Armour and other packers. The space within the railing was crowded '"with members of the ?>ar. who listened to the arguments with close attention, particularly those of the AttorneyGeneral. Mr. Moody said It appeared that the defendants, who were seven corporations. one copartnership and tweuty-three individuals, were engaged in the business of buying live stock, converting It into fresh meat and selling the meat throughout the country. It was obvious that the business included both manufacture or production and commerce. They were charged with violating the law by entering into an agreement fev suppressing competition In the purchase of live stock and of competition .'n the sale of fresh meat. None of the charges related to manufacture or production, .but all related to commerce?, not necessarily interstate commer':.?. but commerce' as distinguished from manufacture or production. In this it differed from the Knight case, which concerned only manufacU TTTOO T1A ft! I lire UL yiUUUV.Ul/u. jlucic nuw uv sion. or acquisition of property interests. as in the Northern Securities case, but simply agreements between strangers to each other's business affecting their freedom of action in certain respects. The charges did not relate to any matters merely incidental or collateral to commerce, or which aided or facilitated it. On the contrary, they related to commerce itself, and were made and done by those who were conducting it with respect to its conduct. These propositions narrowed the inquiry and left for the court the determination of only two questions: First?Whether the commerce in this case was commerce among the States, and if so Second?Whether the agreements constituted a restraint of such comrherce. [>r created or promoted a monopoly of no part of it. The case of the Government required that both of these questions should be answered in the affirmative, otherwise it failed.

That depended upon whether the sales of stock with which the agreepjent concerned itself were a part of interstate commerce. Referring to the action of the packers in controlling the selling price of fresh meat by secret meetings throughout the country by their agents at which a uniform price was fixed. Mr, Moody said it was clearly a restraint of interstate commerce in view of other decisions by the court. Mr. Moody re-enforced his conclusions by a long list of decisions of the Supreme Court in interstate commprce cases giving similar points, particularly in the original package decisions. In closing for the packers Attorney Miller contended that the Government had not shown by specific charges that tha law had been violated in directly restraining trade and competition1. The court then took the case undef advisement. BOSTON CITY LIGHTING. i? The Board of Aldermen Votes for the Municipal Ownership Pian. Boston.

Changlingtzu, at 3 o'clock,, and the } j other detachments followed soon after. ! Each detachment was accompanied by ] | sir loaded transport cars. . [ The Russians in the night were j j takeu on special trains of open trucks ] to Dalny. and tHere'tiiey immediately embarked for Japan on transports waiting in that port. The long, procession of the remnants . of the gallant Russian garrison was a pathetic spectacle. The first arrivals at Changllngtzu were four droskiea drawn by sorry looking horses. They contained the staff officers who had , refused to give tkeir parole. All wore their swords as they were allowed to . under the terms of the capitulation contract. A few minutes later the first detachment arrived. The regimental officers marched with their men, their heads bowed and their faces seamed with , lines, showing the result of the mental and physical strain they had undergone during the long defense. As the Japanese soldiers crowded ; about them with evident curiosity the ! faces of the Russian officers were an ! interesting study. All of them appeared to feel their humiliating posl, tion keenly, and, though some seemed to be resigned to their situation, others ~ 4. mlfh 1 were ie?euLiui uau^ icgaiucu mm curiosity. The men appeared to be well fed, but their faces, like those of the officers, indicated the awful-physical strain they had undergone. The j officers were clean and wel^ clothed, but the men were clad in dirty looking sheepskin coats, and appeared to be resigned .ortglad that the end had come. The horsfes drawing the transport carts were-' suffering from fatigue, though the loads were small. The 1 hor3es were tied to the carts and led by orderlies. In the. procession were many lean looking pet dogs belonging to the officers. In many cases officers refused to wear their swords, but had them cir- 1 ried behind them by orderlies. The officers saluted the European and , American correspondent with the Jap- ' anese army, and appeared to be both 1 , pleased and astonished at seeing the > . Europeans and Americans there. The prisoners were treated with the greatest respect and kindness, though. ( I they were regarded with much natural J curiosity. The soldiers received food. : cigarettes and beer, and the corre- j spondent of the Associated Press even saw Japanese soldiers voluntarily car- ' rjfing the effects of th? prisoners when 1 they were overcome by fatigue. ,'1 ' The railway has been repaired and : 'the gauge chang?d almost to the city of Port Arthur, into which trains will 1 ^nter in a few days.

Count Cassinf, Russian Ambassador, in an interview v jpoke of the rumors that the fall of Port Arthur would hasten peace, of re>orts of dissensions within the Russian ?mpire and of the statement from St. Petersburg that the fleet now at Mada-^ ;ascar would be recalled. "Have any peace proposals been made to Russia, or will they be considered if made at this time by Japan, either directly or through another Power?" the Ambassador was asked. . ~i$ "No such proposals have been madle, 30 far as I am aware," he replied. "No r\?A?\Artnln r?AA Art ?*? il/l ha O/lrtDnfArl inwpuduio JLUJ. ycutc HVUU WC or considered under present .conditions. As I have said many times, we made it possible to avoid this war, but we were forced to enter it. It is perhaps well to repeat that.when war began there rrsre in Manchuria only 00/000 Russian troops, and this is the best l>roof that we had no idea of initiating hostilities.; "Now, we have made Immense sacri- , fices pf blood and in money, and it ia clear that Russid is obliged to and will pursue this war toVthe bitter end. There is no Russian wh6 at this moment can admit the possibility o? entering "into discussion of peace." "Have you se^n the newspaper reports that there is danger of an uprising in Russia?" "These reports are not correct There is perhaps m demonstration or dis- . ; - content; no country has erer^ been without that in time of stress/. % The capture of Port Arthur after such a brilliant defense, while it saddens the heart of Bus?ia. can have only one effect?that is, to animate the popular patriotic feeling of the Russian people. This strong feeling of patriotism does exist, no matter what may be said, and the people will do all possible to aid the Government in this war and not to embarrass it, as some reports say.. The consequence of the surrender off Pott Arthur' is,/to strengthen public feeling in support of the policy to press the war. Despite the difficulties of conducting operations at such a great -ig distance from a base the patriotism of the, Russian people ?has steadily, strengthened since the war began." "What of the report that Admiral Ro jesiv.ensisys utrct, uun iu nauagofluaL / on its way to the Far East, will be recalled?" i "I do not believexany one has authority to state that the squadron will be recalled; that is knoWn. only to the Government at St. Petersburg. But there would be nothing unusual fn the recall Of the fleet. Russia is now preparing a third squadron to proceed to the Far. East, and.it might be deemed advisable to unite the three squadrons, that under Admiral Rojestvensky, that that under Bear-Admiral Voelkersam. now in Madagascar, and the one which tias not yet sailed from Russia, into a single large squadron, which would proceed to the Far East In such strength as to attack the Japanese fleet with vigor and hope of success. The recall of the ships now on the way for this purpose would not be an unnatural consequence of the loss of a naval base such as Port Arthur. It would merely be in order to enable Russia to strike the more vigorously wnen gne ioes strike. "In the war on land the great thing is that General Kuroputkin has brought the Japanese to a halt in their attemptid nortfiward advance.v Winter is now >n in Manchuria;-* and it holds greater hardship for the Japcn&ie. unused to the rigors of.ttte-climllte^ than for the Russians. General Kuropatkin has probably 350,000 men. The second irmy of 200.000.tmen, commanded byi Genera! Grippenberg. is now on its way to Manchuria. The third army, recently organized in . Russia under General Kaulbars, and which is 200,000 strong, will reach Manchuria probably by the beginning of summer.
