Washington, Sept. 10. A copy of a
German note demanding the punish
ment of the leaders of the rebellion
la Ohina was presented to Acting Sec
retary Ad at the state department
yesterday from the German embassy.
The German charge. Baron Sternberg,
helng temporarily absent from the city
there could lie no attempt at discussion
of this most important communication.
The baron Is expected to return today,
when the subject may be taken up
with him. Meanwhile the note Itself
will receive the earnest attention of
the president and such members of
the cabinet as are in Washington to
day, the president at this writing being
en route from Canton. O.. to the Capl
toL The German note was 9ent to the
German embassies here, at London,
Paris. St. Petersburg, Koine, Vienna
and Tokio.
States m Condition Precedent.
The text of the note Is as follows:
The government of the emperor holds
as preliminary to entering upon diplo
matic relations with the Chinese gov
ernment that those persons must be
delivered up who have bt-en proved to
be the original and real instigators of
the outrages against international law
which have occurred at Peking. The
number of those, who were merely in
struments in carrying out the outrages
Is too great. Wholesale executions
would "be contrary to the civilized con
science, and the circumstances of uch
a group of leaders cannot be complete
ly ascertained. But a few whose guilt
Is notorious should be delivered up and
punished.
Kaiser la Fishing- for Whales.
"The representatives of the powers
at Peking are In a position to give or
bring forward convincing evidence.
Less importance attaches to the num
ber punished than to tbelr character
as chief Instigators as leaders. The
government believes It can count on
the unanimity of all the cabinets iu
regard to this point, insomuch as In
difference to the idea of Just atone
ment would be equivalent to indiffer
ence to a repetition of the crime. The
government proposes, therefore, that
the cabinets concerned should Instruct
their representatives at Peking to In
dicate those leading Chinese person
ages from whose guilt in Instigating
or perpetrating outrages all doubt Is
excluded.
Signed "VON BUELOW."
It la Mow Up to Tour I'ncle Sana.
The state department has been all
along directing its efforts to the speedy
opening of negotiations for a final set
tlement with the Chinese government,
and has so far not been heard from
relative to the matter of punishments
beyond the indirect reference con
tained In the notes that have defined
the government's purposes. The ques
tion Is now presented plainly whether
or not the negotiations shall be pre
ceded with a decision on this point.

Patau! Medicine Tax.
Chicago, Sept. 19. The twenty
sixth annual convention of the Na

America opened its convention to act
In conjunction with the druggists. The
two associations represent 800 of the
leading wholesale druggists of the
country. Between 400 and 500 dele
gates are present.
The enactment of a national pure
drug law to -be urged by the conven
tion will be an attempt to regulate
the inspection snd sale of drugs by a
federal statute Instead of, as at pres
sent. by the laws of the various states.
Modification of the war stamp tax
also will be urged. Before the ad
journment on Friday the associations
expect to have a committee on its
way to Washington to present their
project before the congressional com
mittees. Insurance Company Accused.

"Naturally the sympathies of our men

"Our order has an agreement with the

agreements made In good faith and
demand their strict observance by the
railway companies is oue of our prln

Nebraska State Itar Association Diprnssca
Needed Legislation.
Fifty or seventy-five members of tho
9tato bar association met in this city
yesterday and considered tho legisla
tion of Interest to the profession and
to the people, says the State Journal.
The meeting was held at the etate
capital in representative hall, but as

torneys were unable to attend the
meeting of the association. Judge E.
Wakeley of Omaha, president, and
Iloseoa Pound of Lincoln, secretary,
wero at their posts when tho hour for
the meeting arrived.
The special businces to be considered
was the formulation of a plan to re
lieve the overcrowdoJ condition of the
supreme court docket, which now con
tains over l,G0O cases. Tho committee
on legislation recommended the enact
ment of a law creating a commission
not to comprise less than six attorneys
to aid the court. As an expedient for
temporary relief the commissioner sys
tem was favored by nearly every law
yer present, but some contended that
it was unconstitutional and that lhe
better way was to go before the people
with a constitutional amendment pro
viding for the election of an increased
number of supreme judges. As a re
sult of the meeting some interesting
discussions were brought out, but- no
action was tatten further than to in
struct all standing cGmmittea to bring
bills embodying their ideas before the

- airs. Koehler'a Strang Actions Dr.
Miller of Omaha Becomes Insane.
From Wednesday's Daily.
Deputy Sheriff McBride returned
from Greenwood last evening with an
insane man named Smith. The author
ities at Greenwood reportthat the man
came to that place Monday evening,
and that his queer actions at once at
tracted attention. He imagines that
be is being followed by people who in
tend to kill him. The unfortunate
man is very despondent, and nothing
has been learned as to where he came
from or the cause of his condition.
There is a mystery connected with
this unfortunate case, and those famil
iar with the circumstances are in
clined to believe that Smith was doped
by a companion who was seen with
him Monday evening, but" who has
since mysteriously disappeared. The
suspicion is strengthened by the fact
that Smith, in the course of his mutter
ings, froquently speaks of some green
backs which he had at the time he ar
rived in Greenwood and which are now
missing.
Hopes are entertained that the man
will soon recover sufficiently to give an
intelligent account of himself.
Made Eaormoni Purchase.
From Wednesday's Daily.
Mrs. Lena Koehler, who resides on
Wintersteen hill with her husband,
was taken in charge today by the offi
cers, as sho displayed unmistakable
signs of insanity. Mrs. Koehler came
down town this morning, and.entering
Egenberger & Troop's store, asked
that a hundred sacks of Hour be taken
to her home. She also visited several
other stores, and at each place she
made enormous purchases.
The unfortunate woman was confined
in the asylum at Lincoln several years
ago, but was aiscnargea as curea. sne
is tho mother of a young child. It is
probable that tho board of insanity
will take some action in regard to her
case tomorrow.
A Sad Misfortune.
Dr. George L. Miller, the veteran
physician, editor and political writer
of Omaha, is at present confined at St.
Bernard's hospital in Council Bluffs.
Dr. Miller has been suffering for some
timo from a mental ailment, and his
disease took a, violent form Monday
evening. It is said he spent a portion
of the evening in the lobby of the Pax
ton hotel, where ho attracted some at
tention by speaking disjointedly about
a fortune of $4,000,000 that had just
been left him. He insisted on hiring
twenty carriages to celebrate the
event. Ho afterwards became so vio
lent that it was found necessary to take
him to the police station for safe keep
ing. It is thought this outbreak was the
culmination of a mental breakdown
that has been noticed by Dr. Miller's
friends for some timo. Until recently
his mental derangement has usually
taken the form of despondency, and he
has frequently complained that since
his misfortunes he has not had a friend
upon whom he can rely. His physician
believes that his ailments are directly
traceable to the misfortunes that have
befallen him recently the loss of a
magnificent residence and many val
uable relics and curiosities at Seymour
park, and the, death of his wife and
the dwindling away of his means.
Owing to the unfortunate man's ad
vanced age seventy-three years it is
feared that his mind is permanently
affected.

SUi:S THE AKGO COMlANY
Attorney General Smyth Declares It Is In
the Starch Trust.
Attorney General Smyth is now after
J. Sterling Morton's starch company
of Nebraska City, and yesterday filed
an information in the supreme court to
enjoin that company from doing busi
ness in the state under the present
management. The allegation is made
that the Argo company sold out to the
United Starch company, which is op
erated as a trust. Speaking of the
matter the State Journal says:
"This action of the attorney general
was not un looked for as the report was
published several weeks ago that he
would soon attack the octopus in its
lair at the home of the Sage of Arbor
lodge. The petition is an information
in the nature of a quo warranto. The
attorney general in the name of the
state asks that the agreement by which
the Argo Manufacturing company sold
its property and rights to the United
Starch company be adjudged void and
that it be decreed that the United
Starch company is an unlawful trust
and that it be excluded from this state
and be enjoined from doing business in
this state.
"The petition alleges that the Argo
Starch company was incorporated June
2, 1894, and in violation of law sold out
to the United Starch company on Aug
ust 28, 1899, the consideration being
$125,000 "and other valuable consider
ation," and has since refused to do any
of the business for which it was organ
ized." A Powder Mill Explosion.

SORES ACJB
Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor condition is
sluggish, weak, and unable to throw off
the poisons that accumulate in it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from the sys
tem. S.S.S. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from

effete matter. UPON THE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. It is the tendency of these old
indolent seres to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. It supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
Mr. J. B. Talbert. Lock Box Z4V Winona. Miss.,
says: "Six yesrs sko iny leg from tbekneeto
the foot was one solid sore. Several physicians
treated me and I made two trips to Hot Springs,
but found no relief. I was induced to try b S. S.,
and it made a complete cure. I have been a per
fectly well man ever since."

when scratched, bruised or cw t, your blood
is in bad condition, and any ordinary sore
is apt to become chronic.
