OF THE NEW 3,9! 1
MILLINERY
Grand Opening Saturday
This Opening is the Most Important Style Event of 1903.
To attempt a description of the bewitching scene that will meet your gaze in the big second floor mil
linery section today would be futile. Three thousand hats everyone a dream of loveliness, the concep
tions of a thousand artists, and so artistically wrought that each one is becoming to some particular style of
beauty. Paris hats, London hats and New York hats are here in magnificent profusion, but no more in
teresting than are those produced right here by our own skilled force of designers and trimmers.
"Brandeis" models are the acknowledged leaders
of fashion for the western millinery world.
The value-giving power of our store will again be demonstrated by a display of figures for the
worhFs choicest millinery merchandise, such as must convince the most skeptical that they are practically
throicing their money away if they do. not buy thir millinery wants from us, and in order to signalize this
opening we have prepared a most inviting feast of seasonable bargains. ' '
PATTERN HATS AT $7.50 AND $10
A gorgeous showing of pattern hat's at these, prices has been prepared for

goods until you have personally taken a peep at them. We have cauti
ously selected the best ideas of the Paris' artists and reproduced them
with materials equally as good. And as" to style Ave repeat as on several

y CUBAN TREATY IN DANGER
Ben.aU Pixel Two Dates for Frttoctl to Go
Into Effect.
DOUBT AS TO 'BINDING RATIFICATION

lulled States.
WASHINGTON, March 20. From such
foperfoct readings of the treaty as can
be had at this stage Ibe State department
officials have some doubt as to thotr ability
to do anything whatever with the conven
tion;. The amendiuenls made by the senate, par
ticularly that added to the ratifying
article, may result In the complete loss of
the treaty.
There are conflicting clauses which It
nay not be possible to reconcile. This Is
especially true pt the amendment suspend
ing the treaty till after Its approval by
the house.
This led to complications which are now
vexing the. deurtnios1here, as. two. dif
ferent dates- aro Itxed Iq the same article
for the . taking Stct. ot the treaty.' The
weight " of opinion tiiilinea to the belief
that following i h' common law principle
the laat.jRtiuulatloa should govern, which
would dftur the . H'Ci'Hn of the treaty

Violation of precedent to- exchange ratifi
cations of a document which is not a treaty,
s this Tubrn convention will not be. In
the opinion of some of the State depart
ment people; until "the congress" has set
Its approval upon it.
f thi view la correct, then the ex
change of ratifications will have to be
deferred until next winter at the earliest
and this delay. It Is thought, would cause
the failure of the treaty In its present
form, because of the Inability of the ne
gotiators to meet the requirement of arti
cle xl, which demands that the exchange
take place before March 31.
It Is possible that a way will be found
out of this web of contrarieties, and to that
end the State department is working. The
Cuban minister here evidently is dismayed
at the situation and although he made
every effort In his power to keep the facts
from attracting attention, they developed
fully today, even to the knowledge of his
immediate compliance with the State de
partment's suggestion that he cable Presi
dent Palma suggesting an Immediate call
ing together of the Cuban congTess, which
is now in recess.
Ke'tiueat Special t'ohan Sesaloa.
Acting Secretary of State Loomls and
Mr Queenan. the Cuban minister, after
discussing the ir aspect a of the ratification!
of the Cuban treaty withiu the time limit
today, decided to cable President Palma,
requesting hlra to call the Cuban congress
Into extraordinary session i-nmediately for
this purpose, as that body otherwise would
not meet until April 7, seven days after
the expiration of the legal time limit for
the exchange of ratifications.

The president today reappointed Dr. W.

Charleston, 8. C, and William Byrnes,
I'nlted States district attorney for Dela

A cable received at the State depart
ment today from United States Consul Mc
Wade at Canton, says: s "Viceroy Teson
today dispatched troops to suppress an In
cipient rebellion at Yam Cbow, in the
province of Kwan Tung."
The foreign statistical agent of the De
partment of Agriculture, In his report on
the condition of growing crops in the prin
cipal European countries, says under date
of March S:
In Ruxsla severe frosts latn In February
are supposed to have done . considerable
damage. German crops have been be'ie
liteii. largely by recent heavy, precipitation.
Tho uutlx.k In Auclrla-Hunnury Is un

is nuite favorable. A eojmulur report from

crops In Syrlw as good. ' .
SpuuiPh reports-continue favorable. Win
ter gr!u in France has been considerably

Late accounts from Sweden show that
farmerx are feeling considerable anxiety
as to Impending danger from a return of
severe weather. In Great Mritaln Febru
uiy was an exceptionally dry month and
such frosts as have occurred have checked
the somewhat too rapid growth of vegeta
tion and mellowed the ground.

Mr. Cornish condemned the Gilbert pri

the secrecy of the ballot and removed the

rule adopted by the republican city central
committee, making candidates for all offices

PEOPLE CHEER CHAMBERLAIN
Colonial Secretary Receives London's Con
gratulation! in Guild Hall
TALKS OF A UNITED SOUTH AFRICA
Nothing to Prevent Vast Domain In
the Dark Continent tnder the
Flag; of the British
Kutplre.
LONDON, March 20. Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain today received the city of Lon
don's congratulations on his mission to
South Africa In the Guild hall, where Lord
Mayor Samuel and the corporation pre
sented him with an address of welcome In
the presence of a large gathering of dis
tinguished representatives of politics, the
services, art science, the church, Vbo law
and the drama. . ,
Amorg those present were Premier Bal
four, most of the cabinet ministers, the
archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Roberta,
the duke of Fife, the duke of Argyll, Lord
Strathcona, Lord Lister, Slgnor Marconi,
Sir Thomas Llpton and Sir Henry Irving.
- Mr. and Mrs. Chamberlatu received a re
markable welcome from the expectant
crowds who in their enthusiasm here and
there broke through tne police lines and,
surrounded the carriage.
The. lord mayor, lady mayoress and the
corporation officers met Mr. abd Mrs. Cham
berlain In the library where a procession
was formed, headed by trumpeters, and pro
ceeding to the Guild hall, in which the ad
dress eulogizing the secretary's service In
South Africa was presented. .
iireeted with Great Kn t hualaaut.
Great enthusiasm greeted Mr. Chamber
lain on his arising to reply. The secretary's
speech was largely a reiteration of his re
cent speech at Southampton. He said tin
was convinced that everything was In train
for a united South Africa under the British
flag.
"In the words of my friend; General De
larey," said Mr. Chamberlain, "the Boer
leaders will be as loyal to their new gov
ernment as they were to the old."
The secretary added that he found no
trace in South Africa of vlndlctlveness. He
expressed his admiration of the dignified
way In which the burgher, accepted the
result of the appeal to arm. and continued:
"The only fruit which we desire from the
war Is the friendship of those who were so
recently fighting us."
The conciliatory spirit displayed in this
sentence pervaded the entire speech.
Subsequently Mr.- and Mr.. Chamberlain
were entertained by the lord mayor, at
luncheon In the mansion house..
Among the guest, at the Mansion house
were Ambassador Choate and Marquis de
Soveral, the Portuguese minister, besides
those already mentioned as present at the
Guild hall.
Mr. Chamberlain In his address declared
that the present was a critical period In
the history of tho empire and the course
taken now by the emplie and the colonies
would probably settle for all time the
question whether the empire was to be
consolidated and maintained.

of the digestive organs. Thinking

efits. TRY IT TO-DAY.

In conclusion he said:
When the Northern Securities company
Dad acquired a majority of the stock of
the io railroad companies it did not anv
i more certainly or nrmly control the pol.cy
, of the two railroads than did Mr. Hill and
bis associates under the former conditions.
It Is perfectly credible that no Idea of any
' p'ollna or merger In the sense thargen In
the bill of complaint ever entered the heat
! of any (u them.
Only Mataalitr of latereat.
Whatever Inrluenee fhey desired In both
companies they already possessed. There
existed mutuality of interest, and. so far
us control that depends upon moral and
not upon legal conditions was concerned,
they possessed that. The oojects, motives
and purposes of the parties were entirely
different trom the criminal ones charged
by thu government. Those motives and
purpose3 are reasonable, intelligent, credit
able to the hearts and conacirnces of the
actors and tn no wise Injurious tu the
public.
They did not change in any practical way
the situation, so far as competition be
tween the, two companies wa. concerned.
They did not change the legal status of
one company toward the other, nor in any
wise interfere with the internal organisa
tion, rights, privileges or duties of cither
company.
If It be said that the arrangement put It
In the power of the Northern Securities
company to control the policy and manage
ment of both companies, inn answer Is
that that U an liuldenta. result and not
the direct object of the transaction.
Neither of the railroad companies, as
such, participated In any way in the forma
tion of Uia securiUaa company, and nellaer
Of the railroad companies had amy mora
relation to the matter than has a corpora
tion to the dally purchases and .ales of Its
outstanding stock in the public market.
Stock Not In av root.
: In answer to the allegation of the gov
ernment in its bill of complaint, that this
Is a practical pooling of the stocks of the
two companies, we answer that the word
"pooling" as used by the complainant is
Intended to have an. offensive meaning and
an application which cannot be derived
from tne lawful acts which the defendants
have done
The stocks are not pooled under any
trust arrangement or agreement whatever
and that term Is no more applicable to the
arrangement than It would be If one
natural person had purchased in his own
right. Of course, It Is a natural conse
quence of the ownership of the stock that
the dividends declared and paid thereon
go to the owner, and this Is no more true
With reference to the Northern Securities
company ns owner than it would be as to
any other holder.
we ask the court to keep In sight the
fact that the co-operation of these two
railway companies, both before and after
the formation of the securities company,
was Intended, not for the purpose of
monopolising trade and commerce, but for
the purpose of strengthening, augmenting
and extending- the trade and business of
the two companies in both transcontinental
and world-wide competition with other pub
lic carriers The result is not pernicious,
but beneficial, and should be marked with
public approval, rather than by legislative
and governmental obstruction.
When Mr. Griggs concluded Mr. Watson
asserted that it was hi. purpose to dem
onstrate that the merging of railroad in
terest, by the Northern Securities com
pany was a most willful violation of the
anti-trust act.
"Isn't It the law of competition," be
said,' "that different roads traversing the
same territory will make different rates,
carry different kinds of commodities, run
different kinds of trains and in a hundred
different way. seek to, better their own
interests at the expense of their rivals?
Here the defendants have merged the In
terests of all the roads in a certain terri
tory and yet they try to show that It Is
not done to the disadvantage of competi
tion and that it will benefit interstate and
foreign commerce."
He declared that a man has not t
right to corner any commodity to such an
extent as to engross Ibe market nor monop
olize a certain line of business. He as
serted thai, therefore, a corporation has
no such right and that under the plain
language, of the second section of the act
any corporation who shall monopolise or
attempt to monopolize thereby violated the
law, which was supreme and must be up
held. Court then adjourned.
