A Chicago Alderman Owes Hie Elec
tion to Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.
“I can heartily and conscientiously
recommend Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy for affections of the throat
and lungs,” says Hon. John Shenick,
220 So. Peoria St., Chicago. “Two
years ago during a political campaign,
I caught cold after being overheated,,
which Irritated my throat and I was
finally compelled to stop, as I could
not speak aloud. In my extermity a
friend advised me to use Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy. I took two
doses that afternoon and could not
believe my senses when I found the
next morning the inflammation had
largely subsided. I took several doses
that day, kept right on talking through
the campaign, and I thank this me
dicine that I won my seat In the Coun
cil.” This remedy is for sale by

These Terms—Russian Attitude De
scribed—People Eager to Buy Bonds.
St. Petersburg, March 29.—The As
sociated Press is in a position to an
nounce that a step in the direction of
peace actually has been taken. Rus
sia has indirectly made known to Ja
pan the negative conditions on which
peace may be concluded, namely, no
cessions of territory and no Indemnity,

negotiations can be begun upon that
basis. No reply from Japan has yet

Russians’ Attitude Described.
St. Petersburg. March 29.-2 p. m —
Russia’s attitude was described to
day by a prominent diplomat as fol
lows:
“The government is now for peace,
but continues to prepare for war.”
The whole situation with reference
to the prosecution of the war is being
carefully considered from every point
by a committee sitting under the pres
idency of Grand Duke Nicholas Nich-
olavitch, Inspector general of cavalry
and consisting of minister of war Sak
haroff, Vice Admiral Avellan, head ol
the Russian admiralty department.
Minister of Finance Kokovsotf, Min
ister of Railroad Hilkoff. Foreign Min
ister Lambsdorff and several others.
Every phase of the si!nation, mili
tary, navai, financial, transportation,
Siberian and diplomatic is being cov
ered.
The commission’s report was expect
ed to be completed in ten days and
will he prepared by Grand Duke Nich
olas Nicholaievitch, and Generals Grod-
okoff and Kamaroff for submission to
the emperor.
Eager to Buy Japanese Bonds.
London, March 29.—The portion of
the Japanese loan of $150,000,000 al
lotted to London, was well over sub
scribed within an hour of the time of
the opening of the banks this morning.
For an hour before the doors opened
the investors crowded the place and
throughout the morning a steady flood
of applicants among who were many
women, taxed the extra staffs of the
banking establishments engaged to
deal with the rush. The first post
brought in many thousand applications
and the enormous deliveries gave evi
dence of public interest in the loan.
