The issue is new and regarded as extremely important. The Pacific and Arctic Railway and Navigation company. Pacific Coast Steamship company, Alaska Steamship company, Canadian Pacific. Railroad company and others were indicted un der both the Sherman anti-trust and the interstate commerce laws for al leged combination and discrimination against "independents." Solicitor General Bullitt, in a brief to the supreme court, made public to night, says that action by the commis sion is not by any means a necessary precedent for criminal prosecution by the government under either statute. f'lHnkins; Ik Taken —Fourteen 30 foot planks were taken from a cottage un der construction at Sunnyside avenue near Forester street. CELEBRATION OF THE B'NAI B'RITH JUBILEE BEGUN More Than 300 Delegates From Lodges of Western States and British Co lumbia Present Marking: the completion of a half century of activity along lines of pro gressive charity and philanthropic work by Jewish people of the Pacific coast and western states, the golden jubilee celebration of district grand lodge No. 4, Independent order B'nai B'rith. was bearun yeeter«Jay morning in its Son Francisco headquarters, 149 Eddy street.

The first important work accom plished was the framing of a resolu tion which was adopted immediately, indorsing the veto by President Taft of the immigration bill. Copies will be sent to the president of the United Stiftes senate and speaker of the house of representatives. YOUTH'S AI'XILIARt' FKOI'OSKI) A resolution was introduced for the organization of a. yoiAh's auxiliary of the B'nai B'rith, proposing that such a body should be formed and recognized by the grand lodge.

The nucleus of a fund for the en tertainment of delegates to the general convention of the order in San Fran cisco in 1915 will be derived from a per capita tax which will be levied on all members of the B'nai B'rith in the Pacific coast district.

Doctor Hertz received 29S votes to 39 TURKISH TROOPS FAIL TO LAND ON MARMORA COAST Forces of Enver Bey Hud dled at Gallipoli, Where They Are Unable to Obtain Supplies IjONDOX, Feb. IT.—Uncensored spe cial dispatches reaching London from Constantinople confirm the utter fail ure of Enver Bey, the Turkish chief of staff, to land troops on the coast of the sea of Marmora. His forces, the dis patch says, now are huddled at Gal lipoli, where they are unable to obtain supplies. The Daily Chronicle's correspondent reports the landing of 40,000 Greeks at Bosika bay. on the coast of Asia Minor near the entrance to the Dardanelles. This report, however, is regarded as doubtful. It la given denial by the of ficers of the British warship Zehindia, which has arrived at Constantinople. The situation between Roumania and Bulgaria again has become serious. JTl>.' negotiations at Sofia did not re isult in an agreement on the points at Imtte. Hakki Pasha, former grand vizier, has arrived in London. Secrecy is ob served as to his mission, but there seems little reason to doubt that Tur key's military position is hopeless and that when the expected decisive battle is fought for the possession of Kurn dagh, in the Bulair district, a fresh at tempt will be made to negotiate for peace. Czar's Reply Decisive ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 16.—The Russian emperor's reply to the letter recently sent him by the Austrian em peror is short and decisive.

THE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH COMPANY BRITISH CANAL NOTE TO BE MORE DEMANDS Sir Edward Grey's Reply to Knox Expected in Wash ington This Week WASHINGTON. Feb. Iβ.—Sir Edward Grey's rejoinder to Secretary Knoxs last note regarding the Panama canal tolls question virtually has been com pleted and its substance at least is ex pected to reach Washington this week. It is understood that this last note by no means settles the controversy, nor does it contain assurance of an ac ceptance of the American proposition to exchange ratifications of the pend ing general arbitration treaty, under the terms of which the issue might be referred to. the special commission of six members proposed to be created by that convention. The opinion prevails in the state de partment that the treaty of 1908 will be extended for ;inoth*>r t«"-m of five years. This was done last week in the case of the Franco-American limited arbitration treaty, which otherwise would have expired by limitation Feb ruary 27. HEALTH OFFICE TREATS BRIGHTS We have a letter from a patient who writes from an adjoining Stntc on the letterhead of the local Health Of fice. On July Sth, 1912, he had the Physi cian in the local Hospital report on his case of Bright's disease. It showed "albumen abundant," with casts. He got the consent of the Ho.«pit ;l Physician to take Fulton's Renal Com pound. On Dec. Bth, 1912, the same Physician reported the disappearance of the albu men and casts. Wo have both of the reports. signed by the Hospital Physician. Physicians may see them who care to call. The new approach In kidney disease through an agent that counteracts Renal degeneration is getting , results In thousands of cases in which failure has been the rule. It does not conflict with the heart and tonic treatment often given in this disease, but it ■tarts the reaction necessary to recovery, viz., it reduces the escape of albumen. There may be a question as t<. the percentage of cases on the orthodox treatment that recover by adding Ful ton's Renal Compound, but if the books are true no chronic cases recover with out it. If you have Bright's disease you owe it to yourself and family to try Ful ton's Renal Compound before giving up. 3
