THE US-SAN DOMINGO TREATY
Carlous Story of Delayed Ratification.
WASHINGTON, Barch 18, Sepator Morgan made strong efforts before the Senate adjournment to lare a resolution passed waking President Roose- velt for all papers relating to the Santo Domingo Treaty.
Senator Morgan hoped to prove the existence of a conspiracy to force the United States into the role of a collection agency for foreign creditura of Santo Domingo and of South and Central American Governments. All the papers submitted by Senator Morgan in connec
tion with his charges against William
Nelson Cromwell and Reader were ordered to be printed for the use of Senators, but they were not ordered to be made public,
%
The charge by Mr Morgan, upon tho floor of the Sunate behind closed doors, that William Nelson Cromwell represented foreign interes's that were attempting to have the United States Government act as a collection agency, the emphatic denia by Mr Cromwell and the corroboration of Mr Morgan's charges by Mr and Mrs A. B. Reader, of London, St. Petersburg and 1378 Paris fame, has caused a terrific stir in high
circles here to-day.

In view of the international situation. that has prevailed since-Italy-entered the Triple Alliance in 1882, she has entirely neglected her fortifications on the eastern frontier, centring all her efforts on fortifying the western frontier, as Italy's relations with France then were so strained that ander Premier Crispi conflict seemed
imminent.
Since 1889, however, the most friendly relations have been re-established with France, and the opinion now prevails hero that all the Italian frontiers should be equally protected. not for aggressive pur- poses, but so that Italy may be ready for all possible occurrences.
Consequently the proper authorities have beon studying the best method of ensuring the safely to the peninsula along the eastern Alps, which are strategically Italy's weakest point, as Austrian territory so projects into

ANOTHER TRIBUTE TO BILE BEANS.
value of Bile Beans as is every day testified to by ersons all over the civilised world who have found in this medicine health-giving preper remedies. From the standpoint of economy Bile Beans can claim first place, as their price brings them within the reach of all, and a course of Bile Beans is far cheaper than a course of doctor's medicine. Read what Mr Wm. Maskrey of Hawthorne Cottage, Betley, Crewe, England, says of them;
Some time back my liver became out of order, and I experienced the greatest diffi culty in breathing. My food turned to gas, causing me pain between the shoulders and in the thest. I had also pain in the left side. a dull, tired feeling even when fawakened in a morning. The bile was not properly secreted, and almost every day I had a bad bilious attack, accompanied by headache. My strength abbed away and I came to be in a shocking plight. On doctors I spent a small fortune, but it was of no avail, and at last I began to despair of ever being well again. I had nearly given up all hope of ever getting better, when I made up my mind to try Bile Beane. After taking them for a short time I experienced a wonderful change. I felt a better man altogether. As I persevered with their use the pains. across my chest and under my left shoulder
radually began to disappear, I ceased to bilious, and my sleeplessness left me. In the mornings I awa greatly re freshed and able to leave for my work as cheerful as anybody could wish. Bile
Beans have now completely cured me, my liver has been put in good order, and I can once more sit down to my meals with
pleasure, without fear of pain afterwards,
and without fear of biliousness,
