Columbus, Ohio, January, 11. Bal

in the Senate making a total of 73 votes
or just a bare majority necessary to
elect, thus making Senator Banna suc
ceed himself in the United States
Senate.
There is no doubt that Senator Manna
was beaten a week previous to last
Friday, when Representative Manuel, ef
Montgomery, changed in his favor, but
siuce that time Hauna lias kept his forces
well in hand and won out by the narrow
est possible margin of one, -
Charges and counter charges of bribery
were numerous. It is alleged by the
fusionists that Representative Otis was
offered and accepted $10,000 from the
Hanua side, and on tiie other hand the
Hanua men claim to have stenographic
notes of an offer of $5,000 by two mem
bers of the opposition.
The two branches of the Legislature
will meet in joint convention Wednesday
to hoar the journals of the previous day

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to
Know What Appetite and Uoud
Digest ion Mean, Make a Test
or Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an Imli
anapolls . Uentlenian.
No trouble Is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People having it think that their nerves
are to blame and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicine and
spring remedies; the real seat of the mis.
chief is lost sight of; the stomach is the
organ to be looked after,
Nei vous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in tlid stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual Bymptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in tho stomach so much
as in nearly every other organ; in somo
cases the heart palpitates and is irregu
lar; in others the kidneys are affected
in others the bowels are constipated
with headaches; still others aro troubled
with loss of flesh and appetite, witb
accumulation of gas, sour risings and
heartburn.
Mr. A. W, Sharper of No. 01 Prospect
St., Indianapolis, Iod., writes as follows:
"A motive of pure gratitude prompts me
to write these few lines regarding the
new and valuable medicine, Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets. I have been a snfferer
from nervous dyspepsia for the last fctir
years; have used various patent medl
oines and other remedies without any
favorable result. They sometimes gave
temporary relief until the effects of tht
medicine wore off. I attributed this to
my sedentary habits, being a bookkeeper
with little physical exercise, but I am
glad to state thai the tablets have over
come all these obstacles, for I , have
gained In flesh, sleep better and am better
in every way. The above is wri tten not
for notoriety, but is based on actual
dusts." Respectfully yours,
A. W. Hiuri-kb,
81 Prospect St., Indianapolis. Inl
It is safe to say that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure any stomach weakness
or disease except cancer of stomach.
They cure sour stomach, gas, loss of
flesh and appetite, aleeplossness, palpita
tion, heartburn, constipation and head
ache. Bend for . valuable little book on

It was stated that Attorney General

he says is incorrect, that he did say and

had so many stamps it made them objects

te in Secret Session on The
- Hawaii Question.
Belief That it Will Result in Annex
ation. iloih Sides Claim n Ma
jority. Scuainr Iiutlcr ou
Electing Judges. Not a
0(0.1 Idea.
Journal Bukisau,
Washington. D. C. Jau. 11.
If the present program is cairicd out
the question of the annexation of Hawaii
will have the right of way until settled.
The treaty was taken up today by I lie
Senate, and daily executive sessions are
to be held until it is disposed of. There
have been, it is believed, enough changes
among senators to make the vole in favor
of the treaty reach the required" two
thirds. But the opponents of annexation
are going to make a hard fight, and,
under the Senate rules, they can stretch
it out, if they arc so disposed. However,
they do not talk as confidently of de
feating it as they did when Congress
first met.
In accordance with his previous notice
Senator Davis, chairman of the Senate
committee on foreign relations, brought
up the subject. His motion was
made soon after the disposal of the
routine morning business, and almost all
of tho remainder of the session was
devoted to the consideration of the ques
tion as to whether the treaty should be
considered iu open session or behind
closed doors iu executive session.
After a debate of almost two hours
upon this point an informal vole was
taken, the years and nays not being de
manded. The decision was overwhelm
ingly against an open session.
The annexationists now claim fifty-nine
votes for the treaty, lacking only one of
the number to ratify it. Ou the other
hand, the opposition say the annexation
ists: will fall short from three to live
votes.
Senator Marion Butlerevidently doubts
the wisdom of the makers of the consti
tution m providing that Judges of the
U. S, courts should be kept in position
during good behavior, and retired on full
pay after a certain period of service or in
case of physical disability; also the
methods of selecting them, as he has
offered a joint resolution proposing an
amendment to the constitution, provid
ing for the election of all U. S. Judges
by the people and limiting their terms to
eight years, There is little likelihood
that this icsolution will be considered.
Conservative persons have no desire to
see U. S. judges wade through the mire
of a partisan political campaign. The
present system may not be perfect
nothing human is but it has given us
U. S. courts, the decisions of which
have, as a rule, deserved and received
the respect of our ow n people and of
those of the entire civilized world.

Madrid, Jan. 10. An optimist feeling
of high degree prevails today, including
the Stock Exchange, which is rampantly
buoyant, the bulls asserting that peace
will be proclaimed within in. mill, Pub
lic feeling is likewise all the more relieved
as one false rumor after another promul
gated has been proved untrue. In addi
tion much effect was produced by small
bands of armed rebels submitting and
declaring for autonomy and Blanco's
activity witb bis programme against the
insurgents. The war olllee is busy in
sending him neoessury udditionul troops,
while the treasury is sending all ueces
sary funds.
