THE SILVER BILL.
Its Place in the House Not Yet
Decided,
Another Day Consumed in Parliamentary
Debate.
4b Effort to Be Made to Consider the Senate
Amendments To-Day— A Night
Session.
Bpecial Dispatches to The Morninm Call.
Washington-, June 20.— 1n the House
this morning yesterday's contest was re
newed. The Speaker announced the pend
ing question to be ordering the previous
gue:-ti.'!i on the motion made by Mills to
approve the journal of Wednesday as
amended by the resolution yesterday.
The previous question was ordered—
ayes l^'i. noes 122. ' L Great applanse on the
Democratic side.] Morrow and the wholn
Pacific Coast delegation, except MeKenna
and Yamlever, voted with the Democrats.
McKinley voted "aye" nnd changed bis
vote to "no," and then moved to reconsider
the vote.
McHUlin moved to lay McKlnley's mo
tion en the table. The motion was carried
—ayes 131, noes n't I—so1 — so tbe previous ques
tion was ordered on the approval of tho
journal as amended, which was agreed to—
ayes 132, noes 130. The clerk then pro
ceeded to rend the journal of yesterday's
proceedings, which was nperoved.
Stewart of Vermont presented a confer
ence report on the Anti-Trust Bill.
Bland raised a question of consideration
and offered a resolution that the IJouse bill
directing the purchase of silver bullion nud
the is.-uance of treasury notes, with the
Senate amendments, be taken from the
Speaker's table and the Senate amendments
concurred in. The IJouse determined by a
vote of 144 noes to 102 ayes to consider the
conference report. The entire Republican
Pacific Coast delegation deserted tbe silver
men. Tne Trust bill was then taken up.
Alter a short debate the report was aaopt
ed—ayes 243, noes 0.
Bland then offered a resolution to take up
the Silver Bill.
McKiulev made a point of order that the
motion was not privileged.
Conger of lowa added the further point,
an.id sarcastic Democratic laughter, that
the bill was net en the Speaker's table, but
in the hands of the Coinage Committee.
Bland held that the bill was on the Speak
er's table.
A long discussion followed as to whether
the Senate amendments to the bill were new
matter, such as would require consideration
in committee of the whole.
Conger &\\d, notwithstanding the action
of the House in correcting the journal, the
bill had been referred to the Committee on
Coinage, and the Chairman of that commit
tee had actual possession of it.
Crisp said there was no evidence of the
reference. The journal did not show it. .
Morrow said the action of the House yes
terday was exceedingly sigiiifk-ant in its
disposition. The fact is there was no refer
ence at all. The Speaker had no authority
to refer the bill. Jiis action was not void
able, but void. The fact was the bill was
upon the Speaker's table. The mere phys
ical fact that the gentleman from lowa
(Conger) or his clerk had actual possession
of the bill made no difference in its parlia
mentary I ositiou.
Butterwortn denied that the House, by
adopting Mills' resolution, declared the bill
had nut been referred. -
Henderson of lowa asked If Morrow
would contend if the House, being under
Democratic management fur the time being,
should burn up the record of the passage of
the Senate bill the bill would fail?
Jiorrow insisted there was a material
difference between the fact and this suppo
sition.
Buttorworth declared there were not
twent\-Gve men under the dome of the
Capital who believed the bill incorrectly
referred upon their oath. [Republican ap
plause.]
Morrow leplied that the majority of the
House had declared otherwise.
Williams of Illinois said that yesterday
while the motion to reconsider was pend
ing and the resolution had been adopted,
the Chairman of the Committee on Coinage
walked uu to the Speaker's desk, took up
a bill that he (Williams) believed was the
Silver BUI and handed it over to the clerK
of the Committee on Coinage. This looked
like a conspiracy to obtain physical posses
sion of the bill.
Conger, the Chairman of the Committee
on Coinage, said the bill was delivered to
bis clerk before 11 o'clock yesterday morn-
Ing. During the afternoon, upon the re
quest of the journal clerk, it had been put
in his possession for a short time, in order
to make some clerical indorsements, but
be (Conger) had again taken it back to the
committee clerk.
Mil rearv maintained that under the
Constitution the bill had never been prop
erly in charge of the Committee on Coinage.
'1 he Constitution required the House to
keep a journal, and until that journal was
approved it was not proper to send a bill
anywhere. The entry in the journal was
void. He held that the bill was on the
Speaker's table, and should be placed be
fore the House for action.
Alter a further discussion by Bland, the
Speaker and others Bland modified the lan
guage of his resolution so as to direct that
the Speaker, under Rule 24, should lay all
matters on his table, including the Silver
Bill, before the House for action.
The Speaker said that perhaps he could
Simplify the matter and suggested to Blind
that he understood his wish to be simply to
get at tnis matter when it would naturally
come up, supposing it was upon the Speak
er's table, bo! passing upon the matter it
-t/rfsTliuie. What the Chair proposed to do
was that when the bill was reached it should
be brought before the House, but the gentle
man did not seem to consider that this was
Friday, private bill day, and that private
bills al.,nb were in order.
Bland asked whether the bill would be
laid before the House to-morrow morning.
The Speaker declined to answer that
question until the proper time.
llcComas demanded the regular order.
The Speaker said that the regular order
was a private bill which he passed to the
reading clerk.
Springer wished to know when the Chair
might be expected to decide where the bill
was.
The Speaker— Whenever the bill would
be in order, providing the views of the
other side were correct, about which the
Chair presents no opinion because he does
not think it is the proper time.
As Bland and Springer finally insi-tefl
on a specific ruling the Speaker linally
ruled that Wand's resolution to proceed to
the consideration of the Silver Bill was not
In order under the rules.
liland appealed.
McKinley moved to lay tha appeal on the
table.
The ayes and noes were ordered, pend
ing which Crisp moved that the House ad
journ.
The motion was defeated, but tbe hour of
6 o'clock hail arrived, and the House under
the rules took a recess, the eveniDg session
to be for pension business.
No business was transacted at the even
ing session, however.
THE SILVKII MARKET.
Ihe Government Comphtes Its Purchase for
This Mor.'h.
Nkw Yokk, June 20.— Since the Ist of
June the silver bullion on baud, as reported
by the New York Stock Exchange has in
creased 1,155,<)83 ounces and outstanding
certificates 123 L Bar silver in London h
47#d per ounce. New York selling price,
as reported by the bullion-dealers, is Si M%.

ficient to make up its purchases for the
mouth. It will therefore not figure in the
market again until July.
The outllowof gold is apparently checked,
for 5250.000 at least. Speyer & Co.. who
yesterday engaged $2. r io,ooo for shipment,
have countermanded their order. Tho rea
son assigned is that exchange at Berlin on
London has advanced, while sight bills at
New Y»rk and London are lower, which
about wipes out the slight profit which re
cently existed on shipments made in con
nection with exchange operations at these
centers. On the other hand. HeiUenbaeh,
Ikeltiielmer ft Co. ordered S-J50,0u0 gold for
Paris, at which point exchange on London
has recently declined from £"> francs 18
centimes to J5 francs 14)4 centimes. This,
with tlie Xcw York rale in Loudon, en
ubles the shipment to he made.
A new story is started this afternoon to
explain the gold movement, to the effect
that the Bulk of Germany had offered a
premium of oue-tentli of one per cent od
all gold received*
The limes say?: U. O. Mills is ouoted
in Wall street as pooh-poohing the stock
market scaie resulting from the recent gold
exports.
Mnnton Marble, in a letter to the World
from Jans on tlic Free Coinage Hill, says:
"Any Mlver-purcliase bill complicates the
silver problem without solving it. Any
free-coinage bill should bo made as perfect
as possible, so the i'lesident can morn easily
abstain from a veto, which it would be ab
surd to anticipate, in order the more surely
to defeat his party at the coming elections.
Our silver and gold certificates are a paper
currency so admirable that there need be no
change in thfl present provisions of the
law. The [egat-tendei quality is obviously
unnecessary. The existing gold monumen
tal monometallic coinage can proceed on
changed, the silver monometallic coinages
can proceed unchanged. Any reforming
of their lost link by free bimetallic coin
age, at whatever ratio, will suffice
them. Any silver legislation should adopt
a coinage ratio of 10 tv 15%, mid way be
tween our earliest error of 1792 of 1 to 15,
and our latest error ol 1834 ol 1 to 10, thus
conforming to the ratio of all other great
bimetallic coinages, 'i hat ratio retains the
present gold dollar and required a silver
dollar of 400 grains. I remain of the opin
ion that the concurrent withdrawal of
greenbacks iv some li\<-d proportion to tho
greater Increase of silver certificates would
guarantee safety to free bimetallic coinage
at the right ratio by the United Mates, and
Congress would be secure against hostility
and distrust arising from unfulfilled
pledges. The slow and steady withdrawal
of greenbacks would uot only fulfill the
nation's pledge, but also transform all our
paper currency into one of the best kind in
due time, and release to private ownership
ail our immense Treasury reserves, save an
ample workiug balance."

IS IT A JOB?
Sensational Charges Made by
Warren Leland.
A Daring Scheme to Appropriate Lake
Front Park, Chicago.
Intimation That the City Council and Illinois
Central Road Are Interested
In the Plot.
•Special Ulspatclies to The Morning Call.
Chicago, June 20.— A sensational charge
is attributed to Warren Leland, the propri
etor of the Leland Hotel, iv an interview
published in an evening p:iper. The own
ership ol Lake Front Park, which is 1000
feet wide and nearly one mile long, between
Michigan avenue aud the lake short 1 , has
long been in dispute. The riparian tight is
the bone of contention and claim is laid to
it by the State of Illinois, the city ot Chi
cago and the Illinois Central Railroad Com
pany. Lclaud, as owner of property abut
ting on the park, has been fighting all en
croach menu thereon and has declared his
intention to fight the location of the World's
Fair upou it, negotiations to which cud
have been in progress between the Direc
tors and the Illinois Central Railroad.
In the interview to-day Leland is quoted
as saying that a year ago a bribe of $1,000,
--000 was offered him to cease his warfare In
behalf of the preservation of Lake Front
Park. "And yet," he added, "there are
those who believe that 1 am lighting a
phantom, and who ridicule the idea of there
beine a steal on font. Why, there has been
a steal on foot beside which the operations
of the Tweed ring pale into insignificance."
"If the steal were of such gigantic pro
portions a year age, before the proposition
to extend the park 1(XO feet more into the
lake was made, ol what size do you think it
now P It is over §-200,000,000."
"Who is back of the steal? Is it the 111
inoi3 Central Railroad or the City Council;"'
"1 don't know; perhaps it is one, perhaps
the other — perhaps both. A stretch of
lmaeination may enable one to Delieve it is
neither; but a? such a steal could not beac
compllaned without the consent of thb City
Council, and as the Illinois Cential Ball
road is commercially more greatly inter
ested in the aisposition of the property
than any one else, the belief that neither is
interested can be of but short life."
Leland Is quoted in detail as to his ef
forts to maintain the lake front free from
buildings, including the present Exposition
Building, and the opposition he has met
from successive city governments for nine
years past, intimating there wus mone
tary influences bark of their opposition.
Leland refused to cive the name of the
man who came to him. He said it was a
well-known citizen who came as the repre
sentative of the other parties, and said:
'• I.uland, if you will simply bother your
self no more about Lake Front Park, but
remain passive to what is done, I can let
you in on a deal so you will get a million
dollars."
The matter bids fair to create a tremen
dous sensation.
The Directors of the World's Fair form
ally declared a preft rence fur the lake
front site this afternoon, there being only
one dissenting voice. A resolution was
then adopted instructiniHiie Committee on
Grounds to enter into negotiations with tho
city of Chicago, the Illinois Central Rail
road and all other interested parties, to se
cure an area of the lake front of not less
than 250 acres, to be bounded on the north
by Monroe street. The Directors are to
hold another meeting on June which is
just brior to the gathering of the National
Commissioners.

New Yokk, June -'o.— Powderly tnis af
ternoon scut Gompers a letter, iv which he
agrees to iue«t Gompers at the Coopers'

Gooipers says Powderly's answer does
not comply with the proposed terms for dis

be will not attend, i'ownerly added that
Gouipers was in error in his letter of yester
day, in saying: "Hie Knights had been

BIG INDUCEMENTS.
Large Earns Offered for the Continuance of a
Littery Charter.
Baton Roues, June 20.— The Newgass
bill, offering Si,2SO,uuo yearly for lottery
privileges, has been introduced in the
House. It is said that Newman of New Or
leans Is ready to bid $r».OUO,000 annually. It
is believed the Governor will veto the meas
ure if passed, and that it cannot be passed
over tint veto.
In a discussion this aftornoon Represent
ative Slialtuck created a sensation by stat
ing that 1 .mil. if Newman, the largest
holder of Mexican lottery stuck in New Or
leans, came to a friend of the Louisi
ana Lottery people several days ISO
and said that they were determined to "get
In" on tin 1 Louisiana proposition. If they
were refused that they would go to tlie
Legislature and make i.n offer of a
million and a quarter a year. If the
Louisiana people meet it they will raise it
to a million and 11 half, and if that is raised
they will co as high us 85,000,000, because
they ore determined to be in on the proposi
tion. Tin- Louisiana bill was read for a
third time.
This afternoon the district Attorney
filed an information chargiug Kepreseuta

various times bribes from the Louisiana
Lottery people for his influence, btamant

A VETO MESSAGE.
An Arizona Railroad Project
Checked.
The President Disapproves the Maricopa
County Bond Bill.
Explicit Reasons for His Course — The
Measure a Direct Violation of
an Existing Law.
Special Dispatches to The Mobxi.vo Call.
Washington, June President Har
rison to-day returned to the House, without
his appioval. the bill to authorize the Board
of Supervisors of Maricopa County, Ariz.,
to issue county bonds at the rate of 54000
per mile in aid of the construction of a cer
toin railroad.
lie says: This bill seems to have passed
the House under a misapprehension of its
true scope and effect. In the report of the
Committee on Territories it is said, "By the
terms of the bill the county receives bonds
in payment of the money proposed to be
advanced." In fact, the bill did uot provide
for a loan to be secured by bonds, but for a
subscription of stock. How far this mis
take may liave effected the passage of the
bill, of course cannot be known.
A PECTJLIAB ELECTION.
The bill dees not eubinit the question cf
granting aid to a vote of the people of the
county or to confer direct authority upon
the Supervisors to issue bonds. It is said,
however, that in April, 1889, an election
was held to obtain the views of tbe people
upon the question. It does not appear from
any paper submitted to n;e, who were the
managers of this so-called election; what
notice, if any, was given ; what qualltica
tioin on tho tart of the voters were insisted
upon, if any, or in what form the question
was presented.
There was no law providing for such an
election, it being wholly voluntary. The
election wa9, of course, under the manage
ment of those who favored the subsidy and
Was conducted without any legal restraints
as to voting or certification. I have asked
for a statement of the vote by precincts
and have been given what purports to be
the vote at 11! points. The total nftirmative
vote given wn<- 17ii"> and the negative I'M,
but of the affirmative vote 1543 were at
Phoenix and 188 at a town very near
Phoenix.
.-! 1 I ICIKXT OltorXDS FOR A TETO.
If there were no other objections to the
bill, I should deem this one sufficient, that
no provision is mado for submitting to a
vote of the people at an flection after due
notice and under the sanction of law the
question whether this subscription shall be
made.
But again tho bill proposes to suspend for
this case the provisions of tho act of
July SO, IStiO, forbidding municipal cor
porations to subscribe to the slock, or
loaning credit to other corporations; also
tvirbnlding corporations from creating a
•iobt in excess of 4 i>er cent of their t»xnblu
property at I tie last assessment. This law
was intended to give the people of the Ter
ritories that protection against oppressive
municipal debt?, which wore secured to the
people of most of the States by constitu
tional Jimitalious.
IMFFEKKNCE OF OPINION.
Th" wisdom of this legislation is not con
tested by the friends of the bill, but they
claim the circumstances are so peculiar as
to justify the exception. Ido m>t think so.
Only a belief that the limit Is inflexible will
promote care and economy in an adminis
tration.
Maricopa County Is one of great extent
and this great area is to be taxed to con
struct a road which can in the nature of
things be of advantage to but a fraction of
it. There is no unity of interest or
equality of advantage. It ni.iy very
well be that a section of these
lauds along the lino of tho
road, especially town lots In Phoenix, would
have an added value much greater than the
Increased burden imposed, but it is equally
clear that much of the properly iv the
county will receive no appreciable benefits.
MAIUCOI'A COUNTY'S DKBT.
The existing bonded indebtedness ot
Maricopa County is 5272,000, the tax as
sessment about 53,G00,000, and the popula
tion estimated lit about 12,000. It will
be seen that the bonded debt, to
say nothing of the floating debt,
which is reported to be small, is
already largely in excess of the legal limit,
and it is proposed to increase it by a sub
scription that will certainly involve $200,
--000, aud probably 5250.000. If, the bill be
comes a law the bonded indebtedness will
very closely approximate 10 per cent of the
assessed valuation of the property of the
county.
The condition of things in the county of
Yavapai. lying immediately south of Mari
copa, and through which this road is also
to run, while not directly affected by this
legislation, is very instructive in this con
nection. By an act of the Legislature of
Arizona, passed a year before the last act
of Congress to which I have referred, Yava
pai County was authorized to subscribe
S-1000 per mile to this line, of road.
AN ENORMOUS BUHDE.V.
The total length of the road in this
county was 147 miles, and 74 miles to Pres
cott had been constructed. The Secretary
of the Territory states that the debt of
Yavapai Comity U 1763,000 and the assess
ment "between $f>,000,000 and $7,000,000."
There are seventy-three miles of road yet
to be built, from its present terminus, Pros
cott, to the south line of the county, for
which Yavapai County must make a further
Issue of bonds amounting to $2<J2,000, mak
ing a county debt of SSM.OOOor about 13 per
cent upon its taxable assessment (taking
that at gu,500,000) and a per capita county
debt of nearly $85, taking the population
at about lO.tiOO as stated in the report
of the Senate Committee. Surely no one
will insist that the true and permanent
prosperity of these communities will bo
promoted by loading their energies and
their industries with this great debt.
orrr.KSSiVE hates.
I feel the force of the suggestion that the
freight charges now Imposed upon the farm
and orchard products of Maricopa County
by the railroad now in operation are ex
cessive, but this bill does not afford much
relief even in that direction. There would
be but one competing point, viz.: Phoenix.
At all other points on the proposed road
the people would be subject to the exacting
of just such rates as are demanded by the
other lines. If this bill contained some ef
fective provision to secure reasonable
freight rates to those people who are to be
taxed to build the road it would go far
to secure my favorable consideration.
1 h»vo carefully examined the reports of
the committees and every argument that
has been submitted to me by the friends of
the bill, but I cannot brine myself to be
lievo the permanent welfare of the com
munities affected by it will be promoted by
its passage. .
IHsCI ssi.U BY IHE CABINET.
Special Ag at Fcitet's Bepsrt on th: Fi'.i
hu-t■■riiu: Plot.
Washington, June 20.— Tlie report of
Special Agent 0. E. Foster on tlio attempt
to seize L'.wer California was taken to the
White House to-d:iy by Attorney-General
Miller and laid belore the Cabinet, where
its contents were considered fur over an
hour. All the members of the Cabinet were
present except Bask. Al the conclusion ot
the meeting, k repiesentative of the Cali
fornia Associated Tress met the Attorney-
Geueral nod asked him if tlie report would
now !>■■ made public. Ho replied in the
negative mid stated that he could not say
when he would make its contents public, if
at all. After a moment's thought, he con
tinued as follows: "There is really no
news in the report that baa not heretofore
appeared in the press of the Tai-ilk Coast
und bren telegraphed eastward. The re
port is largely made up of the testimony of
witnesses as to who were implicated."
"lheu, Mr. Mil.er, as 1 understand it, the
report confirms thn statement that there
was a plot to seize Lower California, and
that an English corporation was implicated
in it?"
"Yes, sir." he replied ; "that is no secret,
as I sail before. The report of Mr. Foster
fully confirms the newspaper accounts of
the plot. Of course we cannot make public
at present the names of our witnesses or
whai they testified to, as that would be giv
ing our case away in advance.
"No decision was reached by the Cabinet,
as more time was desired in order to look
up certain laws or authorities on the sub
ject. I cannot say when the report will be
made public, but it will probably not be for
some time yet."
THB SENATE.
Legislative, Executive and Judicial Appropri
ation BUI Passed.
Washington, June — In the Senate
this morning Stewart," rising to a question
of personal privilege, denied the truth of

ment increasing the salary of the Commis
sioner-General of the Land Office from

sioner from $3000 to S:«oo was agreed to.
The motion to increase the salary of the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs from £4000
to $5000 was defeated.
(Stewart moved to strike out the item ap
propriating S;>000 for the executive officer

a long debate. Major Powell was harshly
criticized by Stewart and others and de
fended by lugalls.
At the close of the discussion the amend

bill then passed. Adjourned.

TWO CLOSE GAMES.
Stockton Gives the Home Team
a Hard Battle.
The Colonels Win a Twelve-Inning Contest
From the Senators.
Meegan Umpires at Sacramento and Falls to
Satisfy the Audience— National
and Players' Leagues.
After playing an uphill game for seven Innings
null a slim-out staring men) In the (ace the
s in cis made a gallant batting spurt, mid as
sisted by a bit; error ol the cautaln of the op
posing team wrested the lead from Finn's men.
Bui their hopes of victory were dampened In
the ninth when Frisco tied the score, and in tbe
tenth secured two runs.
It was a pretty contest and entirely different
from the one In which Stockton Dguied me pre
vious day. The fielding ol both teams was ex
cellent and there was Ju>t euougu batting to
make matters lively, ituth Young and lei rolt
were at their best, the former usiug much speed
and placing his curves over the plate 90 de
ceptively that up to Ihe eighth Inning only three
scattered nits were mads by the (las City play
ers. In the last three Innings, though, the coun
try gentlemen began to make matters warm for
Mr. Young and sized him up for seven safe shots.
Superb ball was put up by the Frlscos. Includ
ing Ebrigllt, who lias two errors against his
name in the score. Outside of the shortstop's
blunders me home team play an errorless
game and some hard chances were well handled.
Speer was back to his old farm again and seemed
livelier than ever. lie wound up the game by
making a difficult catch of a foul that went Back
to the grand stand. The Oakland crowd jeered,
hoping to rattle Chick while he was celling under
the ball, but the little fellow clung to the put
our.
Shea and Buchan performed line work In their
positions, the third baseman surpassing himself
111 taking caie of sum grounders and he did
well with the stick also. Sweeney was like a
stonewall at the Initial, and at the plate laced
out the Stockton twirlei's curves for a double
and a single. Levy's play was marked by a tine
eaten of a foul fly, after he had iun about thirty
yard!*. Stevens and ilauley had their eyes open
both in the Reid and when faclug feriolt.
Wilson went home sick yi-tei Jay morning and
Selna was detained to guard third base. The
big fellow wax a lirstcla'S substitute for Wilson,
and made quite a record in the new position.
He accepted nine chances out of ten and made a
number of eood stops. His throwing across the
diamond was swift and accurate.
I'cini'i pitched a good game and was finely
supported by Stanley, who played without a
passed ball ur an error. Smith, at first, Had
plenty ol work at lii stand hauled in some wide
throwing, but he en to 011 two easy plays, l'o
itiiny and fudiier coveied considerable territory
In their neighborhood, ftud blocked several
grounders that might nave passed as hits. The
second baseman accepted nine cuauces without
a break and scored two singles.
The pleasure of the audience was marred by
the high cold wind that prevailed aud swept the
smoke from an adjacent factory. The smoke
was so thick at limits that the outfielders were
hidden from view.
One of Ibe feature! of the game was that
neither pitcher sent a batter to lust base on
called ball*. Ihe score:

The CommoDs Consider tne Question of
TaxiDg United States Exports.
Losdov, June 20.— 1n the Commons to
night Vincent, the Conservative member
for Sheffield, asked whether the Govern
ment would request the United States to
modify the prohibitive duties ou British
products before it would make any inodiO
cations in the rules governing the importa
tion of American cattle.
Under-Secretary Ferguson said the re
strictions on cattle were solely on sanitary
conditions.
Vincent thereupon gave notice of a mo
tion declaring that the ilmise will consider
whether a free market cught longer to ba
given to the competitive products of a foreign
State which puts a prohibitory tariff on
British goods.
Smith, the Government leader, announced
that instead of moving a resolution con
tinuing bills from session to session ho had
adopted Gladstone's suggestion that a
select committee be appoiuted to inquire br
what means the passage of bills considered
at one session could be facilitated ia the
next.

A Minister's Story
A minister and his little boy eared of ob-
stinate Skin diseases by the Cuticura
Krinedie». Praise* them everywhere— in
the pulpit, liume, and in the street.
Cured by Cuticura
For about thirteen years I have been troubled wits
eczema or sonic other cutaneous disease which all
remedies failed to cure. Hearing of the Cuticura,
iikmm.iki I resolved to give them a trial. 1 (oh
lowed the directions carefully, and It affords vi«
much pleasure to say that before using two boxes o(
the uuticura, four cakes of Cuticdra Soap, and
one bottle of Cuticcka Kksulvknt, 1 was entirely
cured.
In addition to ray own case, mr baby boy, then
about five months old, was suffering with what 1
Supposed to be the same disease as mine to such an
extent that his head was coated over with a solid
scab, from which there was a constant flow of pus
which was sickening to look upon, besides two large
tumor-like kernels on the back of his head. Thames
to your wonderful Cuticuba Hemkdiks, his
scalp is perfectly well, and the kernels have been
scattered 90 that there Is only one little place by His
left ear, and that Is healing nicely. Instead of a
coating of scabs he has a One coat of hair, much bet-
ter than that which was destroyed by the disease.
X would that the whole world of sufferers from skin
and blood diseases knew the value of your Cuticura
Kkmedies .sl do. Cuticura Kksolvknt and Cut-
icuba Soap are worth ten times the price at
which they are sold. I have never used any other
toilet soap In my house since I bought the first caka
of your Cuticura Soap. I would be inhuman as
well as ungrateful should 1 fall to speak well of and
recommend them to every sufferer. I have spoken of
It, and shall continue to speak of It from the pulpit.
In the homes, and In the streets. Fraying that you
may live lung, and do others the same amount of good
you have done me and my child, I remain, yours
gratefully, (Rev.) C. M. MANNING,
Box 28, Acworth. Uv
