City News UNCLAIMED MAIL IS BURDEN TO HOTELS MUCH MONEY WASTED I N ADVER- TISING MATTER. Samples, Catalogs and Circulars Sent to Transients After They Lea ve the CityStuff Piles for a Month and Is Then Returned to Postoffice Flood of Undesirable Mail Matter. Business men and publishers are flooding the hotels with advertising matter and papers, and to a large ex tent are wasting their money, and the time of both hotel clerks and postof fice officials. Frequently lists of guests are taken from hotel registers and quantities of advertising matter sent to these par ties. This mail in many instances ar rives after the departure of the guests to whom it is sent and thus large quan tities of second-class mail matter is to be found uncalled for at all the hotels. Once a week an inspector from the postoffice calls at the hotels and takes in charge all the first-class mail matter, or letters, which have not been deliv ered. These letters are all recorded at ,the postoffice in a register for the purpose, and eventually are forwarded to Washington. The postoffice authori ties, however, are not anxious to take in charge uncalled for second-class matter, papers and advertising circu lars, which, it seems evident the par ties addressed will never make inquiry for. Quantity I Enormous. The leading hotels of the city aver age 50 to 200 pieces each of second class mail matter a week uncalled for and of a practically worthless char acter. In most cases this second-class matter is held thirty days and then shoved on to the postoffice officials to do with as they please.. In some cases it is held at the hotels indefinitely. In the spring and fall, the seasons when most advertising is done, the amount of circulars, catalogs, samples, etc., sent to the hotels is exceedingly large. The proprietors have no way of preventing this flood of undesirable mail matter and it is accepted along with the first-class mail. There are three times as many let ters received at the hotels as there are pieces of second-class mail yet the amount of uncalled for second-class mail is fully twice as large as that of uncalled for first-class matter. PROBE SHOWS ROADS IGNORE MINNEAPOLIS Having once started investigations concerning railroad discriminations against Minneapolis and favoring St. Paul, especially with regard to passen ger service, the Commercial club public affairs committee finds tljat Minneap olis has been almost a special punching bag for the railroads, especially for the Hill roads. Complaints of attempts of western station agents to make St. Paul the only city on ,the map of Minnesota have been pouring in. Two Great Northern parlor car re ceipts were shown today to Secretary Nye of the public affairs committee. They were issued on transportation reading from Minneapolis to a point on the Winnipeg line, but the receipts read from St. Paul. The St. Paul rate, which is higher, was charged. The receipts were issued on the train and tho the point of origin and destination are in blank to be filled in writing, the re ceipts show that the entire pad of the conductor was evidently filled out with St. Paul as the starting point. The difference between the St. Paul and Minneapolis rates is small, but the fact that the St. Paul rate was charged and the tickets filled and charged to St. Paul on Minneapolis transportation is taken to show a de sire to ignore the larger city. PAUL PIERGE FAVORS HEPBURN FOOD BILL "The house ought to pass the Hep burn pure food bill, without the amend ments that have been introduced and which butcher the bill, or it ought to pass the original Hepburn bill, which passed the senate." This is an expression of opinion from Paul Pierce of Chicago, editor of What to Eat.'' Mr. Pierce is known as a strong champion of the puie food interests of the country and has con tributed much ammunition to the oppo nents of the present methods of adulter ating food in manufacture. is in Minneapolis today and throws some light on the present status of pure food matters in congress. "There is a great effort being made to bury the whole thing in the house. I doubt if the lobby will succeed in doing this, and I think the bill will come up for consideration, and if it does come up in the house these amend ments which allow all kinds of adul terations, I feel sure, will be defeated. The public has been so aroused to the loss it must bear on account of the sales of fraudulent food products, and also on account of the injury to health and in many cases to the actual loss of life, that 1 think the representatives in congress must heed the sentiment." DEMENTED WOMEN IN CELLS ARE IN PERIL Trouble may be caused for the police department for some, time to come over the refusal of the county authorities to care for Insane women arrested by the police. As a result of the sheriff's refusal to care for demented women brought to the. county jail by the police, there is no other place available. A few days ago an Insane woman was brought to the woman's department at Central sta tion and Matron Schaeffer tried to have her admitted to the county Jail, where there are cells especially provided for the insane. Thera are no such cells in Central station, and if placed in an or dinary steel cell the prisoner is likely to do serious harm to herself., If locked in with another prisoner, that prisoner is kept awake and may also be. injured. In this case the matron also tried to get the woman admitted to the city hospital, but was informed that there was no equipment there for such cases. Distracted over her inability to get the demented women properly cared for, Mrs. Schaeffe took the matter up with Mayor Jones today and the case will be placed before tha board of charities and correc tions at the next meeting.

Pomeroy, its general traffic manager, in reply to the in dictments found against them by the federal grand jury* have been with drawn in the United States court. Eight demurrers were interposed in their stead, chiefly on the ground that the indictments do not set forth the charges with sufficient particularity to enable the accused to make a proper defense. Others under indictment in these cases are C. Goodloe, Edgar and Ed win Earle, sugar dealers of Detroit, Mich., and the American Sugar Eefin ing company. In these latter cases pleas of not guilty were allowed to stand as originally made, but it was agreed that Messrs. Edgar and Earle should have until next Thursday to file any demurrers or motions they might choose. One indictment charges that on April 1, 1904, the four men under indictment conspired and agreed with one another, and Lowell M. Palmer and Thomas P. Eiley, representatives of the so called sugar trust, to forward sugar shipments to W. H. Edgar & Son, in Detroit, vio the New York. Central road, for 18 cents a hundred pounds, 5 cents below the legal tariff rate. These shipments were, according to the indictment, "to be billed at tariff rates and refund by voucher."

Shipments consigned to points west of Cleveland were accepted, it is claimed, at 6 cents a hundred pounds less than the legal rates, and a rebate of 4 cents a hundred pounds was granted on all shipments to Cleveland alone The indictment alleges a pay ment to the American Sugar company of $26,141 for rebates under this agree i ment. The indictment involving Nath an Tuilford and the New York Central ?pecifies 128 separate consignments of sugar under the alleged rebating agree ment with W. H. Edgar & Son, and cites three refunding payments of $833, $86 and $928. The indictment against the New York Central as a corporation, together with Vice President Guilford and Traffic Manager Pomeroy, specifies over 200 al leged rebating shipments and charges the. payment of rebates amounting to $1,524 in July, 1904, and $2,474 on Sept. 23, 1904. The indictments against the American Sugar Eefining company individually charges that in 1902 it induced the New York Central & Hudson Eiver Eailway company to enter into an unlawful agreement in the event of the sugar company's shipping a certain percent age of its west-bound traffic via the Central road. The indictment against the sugar company and Messrs. Edgar and Earle charges an alleged unlawful rebating agreement whereby 5 cents a hundred was knocked off the regular 23-eent rate to Detroit on sugar forwarded to Edgar and Earle, trading as W. H. Ed gar & Son. One refund payment of $8,913 on those shipments is specified. A $1,500,000 CARGO Largest Shipment of English Sovereigns Beaches America.

The gold is consigned to local banks, and is the largest shipment of its kind in years. TERRY, MONTA. Snow, a Justice of the peace, died last night. A Famous English Physician ('who requests that his name be withheld from publication) says of "In cases of slow digestion, lack of stomach tone, and debility, this food is invaluable." NOW FOR THE REASON: The great bulk of human food is starch in some formbread, pastry, potatoes, rice, cereals (suet as oats) wheat, rye, barley, etc. This class of food supplies "energy" if it be properly digested, but there's the rub. Starch and sugar in food are digested by the liver and intestines. When these organs are overworked or become weak, then the food is not entirely digested and lies in the warm moisture of the stomach until it de- cays, producing gas, and therefore disturbance and incipient disease of the liver and intestines and fre- quently appendicitis. To meet this trouble Grape-Nuts food was invented. In it, the starch part of wheat and barley is transformed by long soaking, warmth, and time, into sugarjust the same method as the body em- ploys in digestion. Hence when one eats Grape-Nuts he eats a predigested food, ready for immediate digestion and assimilation, supplying the body with the needed food elements in a soluable and de- licious form. THE LONDON "LANCET" SAYS: "The features worthy of note in our analysis are the excellent proportion of proteid, mineral matters, and soluble carbohydrates per cent. The mineral matter was rich in phosphoric acid. 'Grape-Nuts' is described as a brain and nerve food, whatever that may mean. Our analysis, at any rate, shows that it is a nutritive of a high order, since it contains the constituents of a complete food in very satisfactory and rich proportion and in an easily assimilable state." The food is naturally pre-digested by heat, moisture and time. The diastase is thus produced and the transformation of starch into sugar accomplished. A perfect food for persons with weak intestinal digestion and who need, but cannot fully digest ordinary bread and starchy food. For athletes, brain-workers, or the weakest babe. ^*i' For infants, pour hot water over three or four teaspoonfuls of the food. that water with a trifle of the food dissolved in it. "THERE'S A REASON" I am impressed that it is a bounden duty to make it known. ''For 3 years I kept failing with stomach and liver disorders until I was reduced 70 lbs. from my normal weight. When I got too low to treat myself 3 of my associate physicians advised me *to 'pu my house in order' for I would be quickly going the way of all mankind. Just about that time I was put on a diet of Grape-Nuts predigested food. Curiously enough it quickly be gan to build me up, appetite returned and in 15 days I gained 6 lbs.

WHEN PLATT WILL RETIRE New York Senator Answers a Plain Hint Plainly. New York, May 23."When ought a politician to retire!" said Senatol T. C. Piatt, in response to a question.
