(Prom Our Kegular Correspondent. 1 Washington D. C. June 2, 190 C. Temporarily at least the IJeveridga amendment to the agricultural appro priation bill has been up in the house. Everyone who eats meat and agoud many who do not know by this time that the Beveridge amendment is the proposed legislation which let loose sucb a storm when it was sug gested to place government inspectors in all ot the packing and interstate slaughter honses owing to the dis graceful filth and unsanitary con ditions recently discovered in Chic ago. The most deplorable state of affairs was discovered through a per sonal commission sent out by the president. The Beveridge amendment in consequence was put as a rider on the agricultural appropriation bill. The president threatened to publish the whole report that had been made to him if there was any attempt to block the legislation, but the story got out and the papers of the country commenced to print columns about the matter so that the packers, feeling that almost the worst had been done already, have tried their best to block the bill in tho house. The excuses for holding up this nationally important piece of legisla tion are manifold. It is hard to say how many of them come from the friends of the measure and how many from the enemies in disguise. Tho packers have not had the nerve to fight the legislation openly, but have tried to make the cattle producers fight their battle,- by assuring them that if tbe cost of the inspection is saddled on tbe packers, they will take it out of the price of cattle. Al though the aggregate cost of the in spection would be something like ?2, 000,000 it would amount to only about five cents pei bead of cattle slaughter ed so that it is plain to see that tbe desire to shift the cost of the in spection is only a cloak to the killing of the bill altogether. If this in spection were paid for by an annual appropriation, the inspecting force would be a fixed quantity. After just so many inspectors had been assigned to duty, ' there would be no more available. This is what the meat trusts wants. A certain number of inspectors are necessary for their in terests, as they cannot sell meat abroad unless it bears tbe official stamp of this government. But if anyone could have the government inspection who was willing to pay for it, the force of inspectors would be a flexible quantity. All of the inde pendents who are now kept out of the export meat business by the trusts, would be able to break in and there would be enough inspectors to thor oughly safeguard the interests ot the public in all sections ot tbe packing houses and prevent the lqwbreaking that according to all accuunts, the trust has engaged in for years. The legislation iv question is in a very perilous state, and it is doubtful if the bill will finally get through con gress without material modifications likly to impair its usefulness and leave just the loophole that the meat trust wants thruugh which to escape any inconvenience or diminution of its profits. One of the most surprising and shocking events that has happened in public life recently was the suicide this week ot representative "Bertie" Adams of Philadelphia. Mr Adams was best known throughout the country as the famous author of the whipping post bill so crushiugly de feated some weeks ago. Now what ever may be one's personal convic tions on the subject of the whipping po3t as a punishment for crime of any sort, uo one can deny that wife beat ing, tor which it was to be the punish ment is worthy of almost any penalty that can be devised tor it. The bill bad the serious endorsement ot a great many serious minded people, aud the president in his impulsive fashion, bad given it bis hearty sup port and said that it was a good thing and ought to be shoved along. But for some reason or other, the house did not take kindly to it, possibly because more men vote than women, and the bill was laughed out of court. Mr Adams felt tbis very keenly, though it is not supposed that it had much bearing on t: is suicide. But so sensitive was he about it that one risked the loss of his friendship ever after wbo mentioned the whipping post in his presence. The real cause of bis death was ex plained by him in a note to speaker Cannon, lie had become involved financially, and while he was generally regarded as a rich man, be was in reality on the rocks in money matters. He was a great society man, a well known club man, a regent of the Smithsonian Institution, and his death was not only a great surprise to everyone, but will be a cause of genuine rerget. There were plenty of people abundantly able to help him aud who would have helped him if they had kuown he needed it. It has been reported that the house nud senate conferees were on the verge of au agreement as to tbe rate bill But this is not true. Two of the members of the conference com mittee are going out of town and wif i~ ~i ,~i ~i {-i i~i in a ~i_i~i n~i_r> jr> i/i.i|j*)m^ "iii^irw^> i _^_ii~»ii«.i~i in.,~>. ■_»"!_ i_» « »r. 1 1 ,-» i, i i-, ' !

Some of th« features still in dispute and likely to cause a prolong ed wrangle are the provisions respect ing express companies, bringing them within the scope of the bill, tbe lodce amendment declaring pipe lines common carriers, and the provision referring to sidings and switch con nections. The house has aoceeded to 39 of the senate amendments while the senate has receded from only throe. But there is enough material in the remaining questions to keep the conferees in session several days more. CASTORIA , ;jS For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of Out^/xf^c&i MRS. LEDOUX ON TRIAL. For the Murder of McVicar. A jury was secured in the case of Mrs Kmma Ledoux, on trial in Stock ton for the murder of A. N. McVicar, early Friday morning. There was much less dilllculty iv securing tbe jury than has beeu anticipated. On Saturday the taking of testimony was commenced. The Sacramento Bee of Monday says: It has been developed in tbe Lie I 'mix murder case that each side will have a different kind of poison to advocate as the cause ot A. N. Mc- Vicar's death. The prosecution will contend that he died from the ad ministration of morphine at the hands of his ex-wife, and tbe defense that his death was caused by a dose ot cyanide ot potassium administered by himself witb suicidal intent. I'll o prosecution will attempt to show that morphine caused Mrs Le Doux's former husband's death by means ot tbe chemical analysis of his stomaob. The fact that he was taken ill some time previous in Sun Fran cisco, and that morphine was the cause of his illness, will also be introduced to bring out this conten tion. Tbe trunk in which the man's cramped body was found was brought into the court-room late Saturday afternoon. The defendant cast her eyes toward tbe table, and did not once ionk upon the piece of evidence and its bloody interior. Baggageman Thompson, of the Southern Pacific office, was called to the stand. He identified the trunk. Assistant bag gagemaster N. Vizelich testified that he put tbe trunk on the Jamestown train, but later, noticing that it bad no check on it, took it off. Had tbe trunk been checked it is doubtful whether any trace would have been found of if. Mr Fairall made strenuous objec tions against admitting the bloody clothing of the deceased, but Judge Nutter overruled them. The loose clothing was found "in tbe trunk, aud had evidently been placed around the body so as to keep it from rolling against the sides. Piece by piece Chief linker identified tbe garments, mo3t of which were red with blond. Ihe defendant was observed to wipe her eyes upon numerous occasions as tbe clothing was being exhibited. Women still continued to crowd in the oourt-room, many of them with children. The higbt of morbid curi osity on the part of the female wit nesses was reached Saturday after noon, whoti a short recess was taken. A dozen or mere ot them jumped from their seats aud rushed over to the other side of tbe room to see the inside of tbe trnnk. Sheriff Sibley was seated near by, and quickly closed the lid before the curious woman could peep at its interior. The expert testimony commenced by the swearing in as a witness of Dr. S. E. Latta, an experienced and eminent physician and surgeon, who has devoted twenty-one years iv the practice of his profession. He was one of tho physicians who conducted the autopsy upon the remains of Mc- Vicar immediately upon their being taken from the trunk and before the thorax and abdominal cavity had radiated their natural beat. Concisely did the doctor relate the condition of the body of McVicar as he first saw it upon the slab at th^ mortuary. The eyes were dull and sunken, the complexion of the lace darker than other portions of the body, while near the ears aud around the neck was perceptible a bluish color to tbe skin, the rest of the body maintaining an ashy white color, ordinarily accompanying death. The testimony showed the body was searched for fractures, dislocations and, bruises, none being found. A clot of blood tell from the nose as the body was being turned on the slab previous to an examination of the back, but there was no indication of hemorrhages. The organs were all in a normal healthy condition. There was a general presence in tbe body of what was termed venus-congestion, meaning accumulations in parts ot the body ot dark colored blood. No unusual odor was discovered in smelling the mouth or other organs of the deceased. The thorax and abdominal cavity was opened by the autopsy physician and every organ of the body, luciud Treating Wrong Disease. Many timos women call on their family physicians, suffering, as they imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from heart disease, another from liver or kidney disease, another from nervous exhaustion or prostration, another with pain here and there, and in this way they all present alike to themselves and their easy-going and indifferent, or over-busy doctor, sep- arate and distinct diseases, for which he, assuming them to be such, prescribes his pills and potions. In reality, they are all only tymatpnu caused by some uterine disease. The physician, ignorant of the cause of suffering, encourages this prac- tice until large bills are made. The suf- fering patient gets no better, but probably worse, by reason of the delay, wrong treatment and consequent complicate. 11s. A proper medicine like Dr. Pierces Pa- vorite Prescription, directed to the cause would have entirely removed the disease; thereby dispelling all those distressing symptoms, and instituting comfort in- stead of prolonged misery. It has been well said that "a disease known is halt cured." Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription is a scientific medicine, carefully devised by an experienced and skillful physician, and adapted to woman's delicate system. It is made of native medicinal roou and is perfectly harmless in its cficctsin, aw.i eonditian of the system. As a powerful invigorating tonic "Fa- vorite Prescription" imparts strength to the whole system and to the organs dis- tinctly feminine in particular. For over- worked, "worn-out.' "run-down," debili- tated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, "shop girls." house-keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women gen- erally, Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, being un- equaled as an appetizing cordial and re- storative tonic.

Easy to take as candy. ing tbe lungs, heart, stomach, kid neys, liver, gall, bladder, spleen, intestines and the air passages were carefully examined. Several tea spoonfulls of a thin watery substance present in the stomach were remeved and placed iv a vial for chemical analysis. The direct examination dealt gener ally upon all observations arising from the uost-moitem examination. The direct question was not asked Dr. Latta, whether or not be knew what caused tbe death of McVicar, and it probably would not have been consistent with the theory of the prosecution to put such an interroga tory. The results of the te3ls made by chemists will be relied upon to establish tbe direct cause of death. Several attempts were made by as sistant district attorney McNoble to restrict tbe searching and technical examination of Dr. Latta made by attorney Fairall, but the court seem eJ to believe the attorney was within bis province and allowed him full scope in covering the Meld of medical research, lully covering not only anatomy atmospheric and chemical conditions but also toxicology. Reference bad been made in direct examination to five contusions found upon the scalp of McVicar during the autopsy. Upon cross-e.xamination he was asked whether or not they were produced before or atter death, and tbe answer was "before death." Tbe question was then put, "Did the blood flow from the nose before or after death?" and the answer was again, "before death." (Continued on second page.) -Only Me." There may be a world of pathos and even of rebuke In a very few words, and so the rather thoughtless wife of a contributor of ours discovered recent ly. She has two sweet little children, both girls, and, almost without know ing it, she made a pet and favorite of the younger and prettier child. "Sweet," as she called her, had every care and attention lavished upon her, and good natured neglect was more or less tbe portion of the elder. The mother was sitting in her bed room quietly reading recently when the soft patter of tiny feet sounded on tbe stairs. "Is that you, Sweet?" she called. "No, mamma," was the sad reply; "It isn't Sweet — it's only me!" That pathetic little "Only me!" haunt ed the wife of our contributor for long er than she would have cared to admit, but a change has since marked her treatment of her eldest born.— London Tit-Bits. Mileage of the Blood. The mileage of the blood circulation reveals some astounding facts in our personal history. Thus it has been cal culated that, assuming the heart to beat 69 times a minute at ordinary heart pressure, the blood goes at the rate of 207 yards in the minute, or sev en miles per hour, 10S miles per day and G,S2O miles per year. If a man of eighty-four years of age could have one single blood corpuscle floating in his blood all his life it would have traveled in that same time 5,150,808 miles. Watch and See. A well known horseman describes a fact in natural history which may not be generally known. It is that all four footed beasts in making the first move ment In walking, running or any sort of forward motion always employ the left hind leg as -a starter. Even a child if put down on all fours and bid den to advance in that position will make the first move with its left leg, its hands at the time occupying the place of an animal's fore legs. An Accomplished Fact. "Grandma, may I take that piece of chocolate you left ou the table? I will be so good." "Yes, you may take it." The little girl does not move. "Why don't you go aud get it?" "Oh, grandma, dear, I ate it first!" Something He Had Forgotten. Small Boy— Mister, kiu you change a ten dollar bill? Mister — No, sonny. That belongs strictly to my wife's share of the domestic duties. I might have been able to change one long ago, but I'm clean out o' practice now. An Awful Stab. "And you call this chair unique? Why, It isn't any older than I am!" "Well, ma'am, that may be, but it's) antique, all right."— Houston Post. Exaggerated. A publisher advertises: " 'The Wives of Henry VIII.' Third thousand."
