WASHINGTON , Nov. 21. The sec
retary of state has addressed an Iden
tical note to the powers In regard to
dho Chinese oltuatton , setting out
tersely nntl freely the attitude of the
United States government as to China ,
and pointing out how such objects as
are common to the powers can beat be
secured. The note marks the Initia
tion of fresh negotiations on our part
on the arrangement of new bases to
tldo over the Impossible situation
rroated at the last meeting of the min
isters in Pekln , Some responses al
ready are at hand , and ft" is stated
that generally our advances have boon
well received and the state department
expresses satisfaction with the prog
ress so far achieved.
H Is believed that the note Is an ap
peal from the extreme course sttg-
gostod by some of the powers ns to
the treatment of China , especially In
the matter of punishments and Indem
nities to which the ministers nt Pekin
seem Inclined. The Intent is to push
the negotiations on u more rational
and business-like basis.
LONDON , Nov. 2 . The Times this
morning comments edltoilally in a
snmewhat Incredulous tone upon Sec
retary Hay's fresh note to the powers ,
saying that it cannot Imagine Secre
tary Hay as objecting to the execu
tion of the guilty officials after , as was
understood , assenting > to tne French
proposals. It admits that , so far as
outsiders can form an opinion , "tho
United States appear to bo the leading
obstacle to the working of the concert
of powers In China. "
With reference to Mr. Wu Ting
Fang's speech In Cincinnati , promising
tie ) United States better commercial
chances when peace Is restored , the
Times says : "Wo would not advise
Chinese ministers In Europe to enter
upon such a line of argument , as there
are countries where so gross a pro
posal would be resented as an Injury. "
The Daily News , evidently despond
ent as to the outcome of the negotia
tions In Pekln , says : "The concert
mush either dissolve or compromise.
We hope Mr. Hay may be able to sug
gest a compromise1 which all the pow
ers will agree to adopt firmly and in
union "
The Daily Chronicle remarks : > ' 'Even
if the powers are won over to the
views of the United States wo do not
see how matters would be advanced ,
unless the Chinese court can be In
duced to return to Pekin. "

AN INVALID STATUTE.
Judge * Urcldo Arjalnut Stitto Trniupor-
tntlon llonrd ,
LINCOLN , Neb. , Nov. 26. Chief Jus-
tlco Norvnl has held that the bo.ird
of transportation'la null .and volrt and
the other two judges of the Nebraska
supreme court concur. iTJio ilaw IB de
clared unconstitutional because It was
not properly passed by the two houses
of the legislature. This decision wipes
from the statutes n law that has been
in force since 1887 and leaves prac
tically no railroad regulation in forcf.
The old maximum rate law Is dormant
or inoperative , and upon the next leg
islature will devolve the duty of en
acting a new' law or of submitting to
the people a constitutional amendment
providing for the election of railroad
commissioners by the pooplc. These
or other remedies may bo proposed.
Following is the syllabus of the
opinion :
The provlslbns ot section 11 , article
3 of the constitution , relative to the
mode of enacting laws are mandatory.
The title to a legislative act is a
part thereof and must clearly express
the subject of legislation.
An enrolled bjll in the office of the
ee6r'ctnry of state is only prliua facie
evidence of its passage :
Whore the legislative journals un'e-
qulvocally contradict the evidence fur
nished by the enrolled bill the f6r-
mcr will control. Webster vs. City of
Hastings , 81 N. W. 510.
A statute Is invalid which the legis
lative Journals show was never passed
in the mode prescribed by the consti
tution.
A statute is invalid which Is not
read in each house of the legislature
on three different days.
Chapter GO , 1887 , is void us the act
ns enrolled was not passed by the leg
islature in the mode prescribed by sec
tion 11 , article 3 of the constitution.
Judge Holcomb occurred In the opin
ion and added the following :
"Although not entirely agreeing with
the course of reasoning pursued by the
chief justice In the foregoing opinion.
I concur In all the propositions stated
In the syllabus and regard as irresistIble -
Iblo the conclusion that the act under
consideration failed to pass both
branches of the legislature , In com
pliance with the commands of the con
stitution. "
The principal fault In the passage
of the bill was the change in the title.
The same title did not pass both
houses and the house journal .does not
show that the title was amended m
that body.

tarrh I can cheerfully recommend Pe
runa. I have been troubled with
: hronlc catarrh for over six years. I
iad tried several remedies without re-
lef. A lodge friend advised mo to try
Penma , and I began to use it falth-
lully before each meal. Since then I
have always kept It in the house. I
am now in better health than I have
been in over twenty years , and I feel
sure my catarrh is permanently
cured. "
Peruna cures catarrh wherever lo
cated. As soon as Peruna removes
Eystemlc catarrh the digestion becomes
? oed , nerves strong , and trouble van
ishes. Peruna strengthens weak
nerves , not by temporarily stimu
lating them , but by removing the
: ause of weak nerves systemic ca
tarrh. This is the only cure that
lasts. Remove the cause ; nature will
J.o the rest Peruna removes the cause.

pany , Columbus , Ohio , for a book
