If the people gouornlly know the trno cause of Rheumatism ,
there would bo no Biicli thing its linimontfl and lotions for this
painful and disabling disease. The fact is , Rheumatism is a dis
ordered state of the blood it can bo reached , therefore , only
through the blood. But all blood remedies cannot cure Rheu
matism , for it is an obstinate disease , ono which requires a real
blood remedy something more than a mere tonic. Swift's
Specific is the only real blood remedy , and it promptly goes to
the very bottom of oven the most obstinate caso.
Mrs. JmnosKoll , OllNliUh St.N. E. Washington , D. 0. , writes :
"I hml nn nttnuk of Sciatic liliGinnntism in
its worst form. The rmlnvns so intense ) that
my nurvons system was prostrated , and I
was for n long time perfectly helpless.
"I wns attended by ono of the most nblo
doctors of Washington Oity , and after hav
ing his prescription re lil I ml twelve times
and receiving not the leust benellt , I declined
to take it longer.
" heard S. S. . '
, "Having S. ( Swift's Specific )
recommended for Khtummtism , ! decided , almost in despair , to
give it n trial. After taking a few bottles I was ublo to liobbio
ur nnil on crutches , and very soon had no need ut all for them ,
for H. S. S. cured ma spund and well. All the distressing
pains hnvo left mo , my nppotitohas returned and 1 am happy to
uo again restored to perfect health , "
Like all other blood diseases , the doctors are totally unable
to cure Rheumatism. lnfaot , , the only remedies which they
proscribe are potash and mercury , and though temporary relief
may result , these remedies produce a stiffness of joints and only
intensify the disease. Those who have htid experience with
Rheumatism know that it becomes more severe each year.
S. S. S. never disappoints , for it is made to cure these deep-
rooted diseases which are beyond the reach of all other remedies.
It cures permanently , Rheumatism , Catarrh , Cancer , Scrofula ,
Kiizomu , and all other blood diseases. It is the only blood
remedy guaranteed PURELY VEGETABLE.

COLUMnus , 0. , Nov. 6. ThemBht for the
control of the Ohio legislature Is considered
ended today. The counting In some counties
will continue next week , but there has been
such close watching that no material changes
arc expected. The Indications arc that the
senate will stand nineteen democrats and
seventeen republicans , and the house fitly-
one dcmociats and fifty-eight republicans ,
with a majority of flvo republicans on Joint
ballot. There may be several contested scats ,
but these carnet > be considered till the legls.
laturo meets the first Monday In January
next. Since It seems to be settled that the
republicans have a small majority on Joint
ballot , the rumors are revived about a com
bine of certain rohubllcan members with the
seventy democratic members for the election
of some ono other than Senator Hanna on
the Joint ballot.
. When Senator Forakcr was endowed by
the republican state convention two years
ago for tits present position In the senate
thcro was no legislative caucus , It Is an
nounced now that there will be a republican
senatorial caucus when the legislature con
vencs next January. Senator Hanna was endowed
dewed at the last state convention for the
senate , but the old factional fight that for
merly existed between Sherman and Fora-
kcr's following and later betncen the friends
of McKlnley and Foraker has been revived
this year with more Intense feeling that
heretofore. It Is said that thcro are about
a dozen of the republican members who had
Mine factional opposition In their counties
especially for their nominations , who do not
feel kindly toward the Junior Ohio senator.
There has been so much talk about com
bines that It Is certain that repuollcins wll
hold a Joint caucus for the nomination of a
candidate for senator , and Senator Hanna
will no doubt be the caucus nominee. It Is
thought that as the regular nominee there
will be no trouble about his election , as none
of the republican members would refuse
under the circumstances either to enter the
caucus or abide by Its result. There are
some republicans who are said to be working
for the antl-Hanna combine , but ncae of the
members are known to favor such a move
ment. Governor Iliuhnell will have a demo
cratic senate on which to depend for the
conllrmatlo.n of his appointments and no
paittsan legislation can be passed.
The Dispatch today prints an Interview
with Allen 0. Myers of the democratic state
headquarters. In which Mr. Myers says : "I
stand today where I stood the day aftei
the election , with Judge Nash , chairman of
the republican state committee , who cays the
senate will be seventeen republicans and
nineteen democrats , and the house fifty-
eight republicans and fifty-one democrats ,
giving the republicans five majority on Joint
bailer for United States Eonitorl" Mr. Myers
In the report does not say fllrecHy , but Inti
mates that nothing will coma of the efforts
to get up contests In the Joglplature.

The essential part of Judge Park's decision
Is as follows : , '
My views and conclusion , * * do not make It
necessary to consider the question whether
the polling place was located ag , required by
law or the question of tlio effect upon the
vote If It wan not no loca\il , , J .am of the
opinion that you arc not authorized by law
to pass upon these questions , Uwt actlns as
a county canvassing bofird-nunder section
2.CS2 , Ilpvlsexl ' Statutes , your'duties are. purely
ministerial. N- y.
That the duties of tlie canvassing board
under section 29S2 are purely , ministerial is
nxpressly decided by the- supreme court of
Ohio In the case of Dnlton , clerU , against the
State ex rel Itlchardson , 43 Ohio Statutes ,
C"i2. Tne section iwas at that time tilmost
the s.imo as It now stands , the sllsht
changes made not affecting the question
under consideration here , but It was then
numbered section 29S1. The law Is stated In
the syllabus as follows :
"Under the presence of section 20S1 of the
Revised Statutes defining the duties of can
vassers of election returns , which require
that in making' the abstracts of votes they
shall not decide upon the validity of the
returns , but shall bo governed by the num
ber of votes stated In the poll books. " The
duties of such canvassers are merely min
isterial and they have no power to decide
such returns or any part of them Invalid
by reason of fraud at the election or In the
rntlirn Ihnmnf ri mmli * tn thr * olorlr nnil
have no power to exclude such returns or
nny p.irt thereof from the. count for such
reasons.
Judge Park holds that the functions of
the board of elections are simply ministerial ;
that they must certify to the vote as they
find it without going behind the returns ; tint
the question as to whether the provisions
of the law were not compiled with In having
the booth outside the boundaries of Center
township precinct and whether If so It In
validates ( lie ballots there cast must be de
cided by the courts or by the legislature It
self.
Context In Mu
BALTIMORE , Md. , Nov. C. The Board of
Supervisors of Election bf Somerset county
met today ani found that 495 ballots lacked
the signature of the Judges as required by
law. The board adjourned until Monday ,
when Attorney General Clabaugh Is expected
to bo present. There U a conflict In the law.
ono section declaring that no ballot shall
bo counted which lacks the signature of a
Judge while another section states that such
ballots shall be counted. H will probably betaken
taken to the courts by the democrats. If the
courts declare these ballots illegal It may
affect the result In several counties.

NEW YORK , Nov. 6. Senator E. 0. Wol-
eott of Colorado , who has just returned
from a vlalt to the capitals of Europe as a
member of the United States monetary com-
mlesslon , still refuses to talk regarding the
lesults of his mission. On the Cuban ques
tion , however , [ Senator Wolcot't ' said today :
"So far s the threatened imbroglio with
Spain Is concerned , I cannot speak , for J do
not know what has 'happened ' In the last ten
dfoa. In Europe the opinion Is divided as to
the rights of the countries. In France this
Is made apparent and there the papers go
to extremes. The Journals which support the
government and are strongly republican In
their views regard the United States as the
Ideal nation , and they speak of our dlincul-
tles with Spain in a way which gives the
opinion that one shot from an American
man-of-war would end everything. <
"The monarchical papers aio as rabid In
the other direction. They regard the United
Statra as an example of the Inability of the
people to rule themselves and hold that
should the rapacity of the Americans lead
this country to a war with Spain the powers
of Europe would Interfere and the United
States would IIml themselves In serious dif
ficulties.
"How far these opinions prevail among the
people at large I cannot say , 'though ' In
France , I think that sympathy generally Is
with Cuba and the United States. In. Great
Britain there seems to be less popular In
terest 'In ' the question , 'though ' some of the
papers now and then give utterance to
rabidly anti-American views , while others
are in our favor.
"I am not certain how the people of Ger
many and eastern Europe feel in the matter ,
but I do not believe mere Is a sentiment
which would support their government
should it wish to interfere. As a consequence
quence I do not fear that buch a complica
tion will result. "
The Evening World says former Vice
President titcvenson'B failure to return with
Senator Wolcott and General Paine was due
to a new turn of affairs Ini England , which
may result In some change In the attitude of
the llrltlsh government on the bimetallic
question. AH a consequence the Evening
World eays the report of the United States
commissioners will not bci made public until
Mr. Stevenson Is heard from.

CHICAGO , Nov. C. The range of wheat
In the Chicago market In the past week has
been wide , especially so for the December
option , In which there was a difference of
5 % cents between the high and low polntn.
The spread between May and December ,
which WES 3 centa a week ago , was at onetime
time during the week less than a cent , but
at the close last night had widened again to
2402 ! % cents.
There las : been a decided Improvement In
the prospects Tor the earning season's winter
wheat crop during the past week , The
drouth fast of the MlsBlEslppI , which was re
markable for Its severity , was thoroughly
broken Monday and Tuesday by soaking rains ,
This was equally true of Argentina , where
similar conditions had prevailed , The ten
dency of the market as 'a consequence ban
bccti toward lower prices , Not onlV wag
what was regarded as the principal sustaining
factor of the market , the drouth , removed , but
thcro was a very perceptible Increase In
fitocka and this , too , In spite of the heavy
European demand for our wheat. The In
crease of nearly 2,600,000 bushels In the
world's visible supply camp as a stunner to
the bulls and caused liquidation by many of
the smaller holders and local professionals ,
The ticuilstent strength ofthe Paris market
and tiurchiuice of wheat hero for shipment
to France attracted attention and helped the
general situation somewhat.
During the latter part of the week there
were many Indications that the December
option was being manipulated and the belief
was expressed that a repetition of the recent
July deal would soon eventuate. The sky
rocket tactics of the market on Thursday
showed a tcuik'ucx to scare away outsldi ;
support and the market as a consequence
suffered ye.terday. The clcee of the week
finds December selling at a point 3 % cents
lower than a week ago. May suffered a de
cline of about 3 cents.

CHICAGO , Nov. 6. A special to the Trib
une from Pltlsbtirg , Pa. , says : The Car
negie and Uetlilehem Steel companies have
no Idea of abandoning their armor pinto
plants , erected at a great expense , and liuvc.
In pursuance of this Idea , acquired tl.o now
Krupp process for the hardening of armor
plate. The use of the 'harvoylzlng ovens at
Homestead will be abandoned unless pur
chasers of armor plate spcclfly that process.
European military establishments have boon
Interested for several months In a neA' pro
cess of finishing armor plates perfected ut
the Krupp works at Euson , Prussia. The
process Is a secret thus far to the public ,
but Its use. It Is asserted , hardens the sur-
fuco of a plate to a greater depth than the
liarvcylzlng method.
It U said the Carnegie and Hnthlchcm
companies have acquired the exclusive right
to use the Krupp process. In that event
theco companies would bo able to monopolize
the armor plate business In Am-rlca , pro
vided the now process attains the superiority
claimed for It. It congress should decide
upon the erection of an armor plate plant ,
the government will not b : able to obtain
armor made In accordance with the new
process Invented by Krupp. The price paid
for the Krupp process Is being and -Aill bo
kept a secret , '
