WA8HIN0T0N, Dee. 27. The- seventeenth
annual meeting of the American Historical ,
association and tho anual meeting ot me
American Economic association bsgan litre
tonight and will continue for several days,
For their Initial gathering tho two organl
latlcns held a Joint session at the Columbian
university, at which General Adolphui W'
Orcclcy, chairman of tho local reception
committee, presided. The features of tho
session wcro the addresses of tho presidents
ot tho respective usjc.atlons, Charles Fran
cis Adams of tho Historical association
speaking on tho topic, "An Undeveloped
Function," and l'rof. Itlchord T. Ely of tho
Economic association bavins for his sub
ject "Industrial Liberty."
Thero was a largo attendance of members
of both associations. Air. Adams advocated
a freer discussion of political questions by
scholars, citing In this connection bis own
Interest In tho past twclvu presidential
ccmpnlgns. In all these there had tice-n dis
cussed only six great questions slavery,
reconstruction, currency, the tariff, the
trusts, nnl Imperialism. Hut three ot tbeso
hail been definitely decided. He believed
that those of slavery, reconstruction nnd
tho currency wero definitely disposed of,
but tho tariff always would be a great ques
tion and tho trusts and Imperialism were
lssuca of today. As to trusts, ho said that
the. ntudy of history throughout would show
that tho tariff was tho bastllo ot tho trusts.
In an academic discussion ot the question
of Industrial liberty, l'rof. Illy, declared
that liberty cannot be an absoluta Ideal ho
causo authority la noeded In society. On
the other hand, socialism furnished us with
no sufficient Ideal of Industrial liberty. Tho
true Ideal, hu said, lies midway between
anarchy and socialism.
ARBITRATES AN OLD CLAIM

of "Pious I'ihhI" In the
MM.
W'ASHINOTON, Dec. 27. Tho Slate de
partment has Just added nnothcr to tho long
list of arbitrations which It has arranged
within tho last few -yearn for tho settlement
of American claims. This arbitration will
provide for tho settlement of the "pious
fund," which has been n subject of diplo
matic cxahange between tho United States
nnd Mexico slnco tho Mexican war.
Tho claim arose through tho failure of
tho Mexican government to pay to the nrch
bishop of California Interest on lands be
longing to tho Jesuits, for which the Mex
ican government acted ns trusted.
Tho claim was 'submitted to the Mexican
claims commission In 1877 nnd Judgment
given In favor of tho church for about
$1,000,000. Tho Mexican government claimed
that that payment extinguished tho claim,
but tho Stato department held that the In
terest began again from tho dato of the
award and has run until at present It
amounts to another million dollars. Per
sonal representations by tho archbishop ot
California, who recently was In Washington,
nnd other dignitaries of tho Catholic church
caused the department to press tho matter
with the result stated.
Tho namo of the arbitrator and other do
talls remain to be announced. '

In 1S99 I was compollcd to abandon my profissltin. because of nervous prostration
consentient upon exposure, hard study nnd overwork.
A number of physicians declared I would never recover, but I tried Palne's celery
compound and In less than a year Increased In weight from 1111, to 215 pounds.
During tho recent strike of the steel workers, finding myself ready to collapse nnd
fcurlug n rrctirrcnco of my former trouble, I returned to my former friend, Palne's
celery compound, and already nm feeling more vigorous und nble to meet nnd dis
charge the duties of my office.
Yours truly, T. J. SHAFFER, President.

ous debility, mental depression, sleeplessness, or dyspepsia find Palne's Celery Com
pound a powerful restorative. It regulates tho liver nnd kidneys, demises the blood

the liver, kidneys and stomach by tho uld of Pnlnc's celery compound Is lasting. H Is
the greatest ot nil modern restorative agents.
Pnlnc's celery compound is prescribed by phyaiclnns who differ 'n many other
things, but agree In estimating highly this greatest of remedies for curing diseases of
the kidneys, rheumatism, gout, dyspepsia, Ilrlgbt's dlrease and stomach disorders duo
to n deranged nervous rystcni.
