y country that can spend $200,000,000 in free

Filipinos in self-government, can," lie
said, "afford to lend its credit to the ex
tent of $50,000,000 or $100,000,000 to help the
great Pacific coast in its hour of distress."
He thought it could be done under the
general welfare clause of the constitution.
"The country," he declared, "does not yet
'know how hard it has been hit by the dis
aster, for not only has San Francisco been
Injured but the entire country is af
fected."
Mr. Newlands asked for immediate con
sideration of the resolution.
Speaking for himself, Mr. Perkins ex- !
pressed regret that the resolution had
■been presented without consulting t lie
California senators. He was opposed to I
any congressional action in advance of an j
official request from California. He had
no doubt that Mr. Newlands had been ac- j
^uated by generous impulses, but he felt 1
that if he had consulted with the Call- I
fornia senators he might have been dis- I
suaded from presenting flu resolution
which he considered would have been j
most desirable. i
Mr. Aldrich then moved the reference of I
the resolution to the committee on finance ■
and that motion passed without opposi
tion. He promised that the committee
would take up the resolution promptly and
report as its judgment might dictate. The
railroad rate bill was then taken up and
Mr. Daniel continued his speech on that
measure, taking up the question of the
extent of the review to be had by the

The Right Sort
of Fountain Drinks
Visitors to this fountain are served with drinks exactly as ordered. If
you call for a Coca Cola you are served with a sure enough, pure, un
adulterated Coca Cola.
If you call for a Strawberry Ice Cream Soda, you are served with a
Soda containing fresh crushed strawberries and the purest syrup.
Reverting to Coca Cola: Perhaps you are not aware that Norton bought
more Coca Cola last year than any single fountain in the United States. It’s
a published fact. That doesn't necessarily mean that Norton served a
heavier trade on Coca Cola (though possible), but it certainly does mean
that he served pure Coca Cola.
We mention Coca Cola merely as an example. All drinks at Norton’s
are absolutely pure, wholesome and refreshing.

MOVEMENT IS SPENT.
French Public Resumes Normal Tran
quility.
Paris, May 2.—The main force of the
labor movement as It affects the city and
tho country appears to nave spent itself,
bn Tuesday, although detached move
ments continued to agitate various trades
requiring constant survellance by the
police and the continued presence In
Paris of a considerable force of troops.
However the authorities. wXille prepared
to meet any further demonstration, no
lunger treat the movement as serious.
The public, which for a week has been
iecply agitated, has resumed Its usual
tranquility, the central sections of the
■ity having recovered their normal as
>ect, and business Is proceeding as usual.
Wholesale Prices High.
Washington. May 2.—(Special.)—The
qreau of the department of commerce
nd labor has issued a bulletin on the
ourse of wholesale prices. The subject
» treated exhaustively, many pages of
ibles marking the course of commodi
es being printed. It is declared that
holesale prices, considering all commodl
ps, reached a higher point in 1905 than
any other time during the sixteen
iars covered by the bureau’s Jnvestiga
>ns. Tlie average for the year 1905 was
9 per cent above the average for the
n-year period. 1890 to 1899. *29.8 per cent
ove the low price in 1897, and 2.8 per
it above the average for 1904. Prices
iched.the highest point in December.
S, when they were 5.8 per cent above
prices in December, 1904.
Cavalry Is Recalled.
'ashington, May 2.—General Duval,
unandlng the department of the Gulf,
ay telegraphed the war department
t he had directed that orders be given
the recall of the cavalry detachment
ch started with Father Thomas Sher
man to Atlanta. General Duval expressed
doubt whether the orders would reach the
detachment by the time it arrived at Re- I
saca, hut said they would reach it at some
point near there.
AH Traffic Threatened.
Buffalo, N. Y.. May 2.—The strike of the
longshoremen put an effective embargo on
Lake Erie commerce yesterday and to
day. It is said traffic will stop at all upper
lake ports by tomorrow. There are about
5000 men idle, and that number will be
vastly increased when industries depend
ent upon lake commerce for supplies are
compelled to cease operations.
Lumbermen to Meet.
Memphis, May 2.—Lumbermen are arriv
ing here from all sections of the country
to attend the annual convention on the
National Hardware Lumber association
which meets tomorrow' for a two days’
session. Several important papers will be
read and officers elected.
Ideal Bottle Beer.
The Beer of Quality.
FEAR OF SUFFERING IS
SAID TO BE UNFOUNDED
San Francisco, May 2.—An investigation
made today has demonstrated that the
fears that San Francisco will suffer a
period of hard times as an aftermath of
the disasterous lire is unfounded. Care
ful estimate made by authorities com
petent to speak show that within the
next year there will be over $200,000,000
available for the rehabilitation of San
Francisco.
It is expected that a large part of this
money will come from eastern and fore
eign capitalists. Figuring this amount
which will be available, the investigators
did not take into consideration the sums
that may be raised for the beautification
of the new city.
The vexatious problem of locating the
new Chinatown will probably be settled to
the satisfaction of the Chinese colony.
It Is tlie desire of the municipality not
to harass tills portion of Its foreign popu
lation and the desire of the diplomatic
representatives of China will be consid
ered. At a meeting: today bf Chinese
diplomats and a representative of the
general committee such understanding
was reached.
The two weeks that have elapsed since ■
the earthquake have witnessed a trans
formation from chaos to regular order.
The unburned section has been nearly re
stored to Us normal condition, and when
housewives are permitted to return to
their kitchens after the required inspec
tion of chimneys, the streets will have
their old time appearance.
VESSELS under arrest.
State Department l« Investigating Act
of Seamen.
Washington, May 2.—The action of
the Mexican government in stopping
American iishing vessels off the coast
of Yucatan Is now the subject of tele
| graphic correspondence between the
state department and the American
I embassy at the City of Mexico. When
i the fact was reported to the state de
| partment last week that (wo Pensacola
! boats had been seized off Campeche
and taken into Progresso, an inquiry
was promptly directed to Mr. Thomp
son. He has replied by telegraph, as
follows:
"Informataion so far received from
Progresso so indefinite that it is of
little value. Three vessels are now
under arrest In Progresso. The Mexi
can government says that American I
'
poachers have long been working in
Mexican waters and have been warned
ineffectually, making their arrest nec
essary. Trying to arrange for the re
lease of the vessels after bonding,
pending Investigation.”
Senator Cnlberson of Texas has
been Informed of the receipt*of this
dispatch In view of his Inquiry rela
tive to the reported search of two
Galveston fishing boats by Mexican
officials.
