ST. LOUIS, Feb. !0. Th war on the
Msdlson (111.) pool room haa not ended. A
meeting was held today by the Busineea
Men's Improvement league of Madison and
It was decided to continue the fight vigor-
oualy. Resolutions condemning tho action
f the pallre In defending and assisting the
pool room gambler and "provoking hos
tilities" were adopted. A decision waa
reached to lay the entire matter before the
grand Jury and to also take It up directly
with the attorney general of Illinois with
the purpose of putting a atop, in a legal
way, to the official connivance under which
the pool room has been run.
The four member of the cltlsena' posse
who were arrtatt-d on oharge of breach of
the peace hav been released on bond. It

The police began today to dtarm all
members of tho porss whom they could
find. It was stated by members of the
poaae that the police were even entering
the houses of the posse members and con
ducting their search for arms there.
It I declared If necessary the cltlsena
would find the mean to arm themselves
again.
Victor Schuler and eleven men associated
with him In the Madison pool room arrived
In Madlaon this afternoon and went at
once to the offloe of Polloe Magistrate C.

Koly, Joseph Garner, Eugene Wall and E.

After giving bond the men atarted for
the pool room, but Schuler declined to
utate whether or not they would open for
business this afternoon. The faot that the
warrants were issued ten day ago by Me
Cambridge and that no apparent effort
had been made to serve them caused con
aldrable comment In Madlaon. when It be
came known. Graham exhibited a bullet
hole In hla hat. which he aald waa made
by a ahot fired by a posseman.
It was half an hour later than the usual
opening hour when the party reached th

Station, ttah, Only Sin
Escape Death or
Injory.
OGDKN. Utah, Feb. . -Twenty-five per
sona hav been killed, fifteen Injured, sev
eral, it Is believed, fatally, and a great
amount of railroad property destroyed by
an explosion of a carload of dynamite at
Jackaon, a telegraph atatlon on the west
ern end of the great Ogden-Lucln cut
off of the Southern Pacific railroad.
The explosion waa caused by a collision
between two freight trains, due, it Is aald,
to the failure of the air brake apparatus
to work. Eight of the dead and five of the
Injured are Americana; the othera are
Greek laborers,
The dead:
T. W. Dt'RKEE. section foreman.
MRS. W. T. PTHKEE.
THREE DT'RKEE CHILDREN.
J. W. Bl'RKE, a former general fore
man. W. T. HOLLER, messenger, formerly of
Andrew, Ind. 1
OWEN DERMODT, conductor, formerly
of Beaver Dam, Wis.
SEVENTEEN GREEK I.ARORER9.
The Injured:
Engineer Ielna, slight.
Conductor Courtney, slight.
Engineer 8tanton, slight.
Operator Taylor and wife, injured about
face nnd body.
Ten Greek laborers, all seriously injured.
The explosion following the collision be
tween the two trains, which met head-on
almost In front of the telegraph station,
was terrific. Everything within a radius
of half a mile was wrecked.
Effect of Explosion Widely Felt.
The town of Terrace, fifteen miles north,
was shaken as though by an earthquake.
Window pane at Colon, fifteen mile away,
were ahattered, and the noise waa heard
In this city, eighty-one miles away.
The ground on which the trains were
standing was torn up for over 1,000 feet,
leaving a great excavation thirty feet In
depth. Fragments of a doaen freight cars
and two engines were thrown for incredi
ble distances over the surrounding country,
the atatlon building waa blown to splinters
and the dead and Injured were scattered
for hundreds of feet In all directions, most
of them having their clothing torn off.
Telegraph wires and poles were torn down
for 1,000 feet, and tho first knowledge of
tho disaster came from Terrace, fifteen
mile away, tho operator at that point re
porting to headquarters that he saw an Im
mense cloud of white smoke nscend from
Jackson and spread out at a great height.
A relief train with doctnra and atretchers
Waa quickly dispatched from this city.
The train returned with the injured, who
were placed In tho company's general hos
pital.
The great loss of, life among the Greeks
is accounted for by the fact that they oc
cupied outfitting cars which were standing
near the spot where the explosion occurred.
Of the forty-six person at Jackson at
th time of the explosion, only nine es
caped dooth or injury.
The great railroad trestle over th lake
waa not damaged, tha explosion occurring
a short distance beyond the wetiern end
of that structure.

PRICES OF WHEAT GO HIGHER
May Option Sell at f 1Vf on Chi
cago Board of Trad
Today.
CHICAGO, Feb. 20. Wheat for May de
livery today sold at 11.07 a buthel, a gain
of 4 cent over last night's rlo.-.e. The mar
ket wo extremely active and th volume
of trading waa of enormous proportions.
The significant advance was due largely to
the anxiety of shorts, who were afraid to
maintain open trades over a two days' re
cess of the board.
Th pit was the center of upror- and
clamor, which never ceased or abated from
the opening of the seaslon until the gong
announced its c'ose. In one respect .today
was unlike any previous day since the ex
citement over the Ruaso-Japancse war be
gan. There were no varying degrees of In
tensity in the excitement which reigned,
and the nerves of every trader were at the
highest tnslon every minute of the session.
The advance was Irresistible. Armour, who
for months has been the almost undisputed
monarch of the wheat pit, sold million of
hushels of the grain, but for every bushel
ofTt-red there were two demanded by the
traders or outside bidders. Imbued with a
desire to buy, that was little If anything
less than frantic. The market hoslloleil
somewhat at the outset and a moment of
calm prevailed, but suddenly a buying wave
struck tho pit. It fairly swept brokers off
their faet. By leaps and bound the May
price, which slipped from $1.04 at the open
ing to J1.U2S, went soaring to fl.07, or over
4 cents above the close last night.
Pandemonium accompanied the advance.
Brokers rushed madly back and forth be
tween the pit and te'egraph counters, with
their hands full of orders. These, because
of the excited state of the markt," It was
almost lroposKlble to fill. The crowds which
packed the visitors' gallery were daaed by
the wild scenes that were being enacted on
the floor below, not only In the wheat pit,
where hundreda of trailers, with arms wav
ing above their heads, straggled and fought
to buy or sell, but over in the corn and
provUtlon pita all waa excitement. wl;h
price cllmnlng.
ST. I.OUI8. Feb. The May option of
wheat sold Monday In the St. Loula grain
pit on 'change to $1 OP. and loud waa the
cheering of th aasembled traders and
lookers on when that price was bid. Con
alderable waa aold at that price. The
option closed at fl.Ov asked.
Thla Is the first time on the present ad
vance In which a speculative option haa
sold In the St. Louis market at II. Cash
wheat reached that price two weeks ago
and la now 11.11 for track.

We Give
To Lei a. Million of the Sick Try Liquozone.
We are spending half a million dollars upending it at the rate of $4,000 per day to buy the first bottle of Liquozone
for each sick one who gays "I want it." Don't you realize that Liquozone must be a wonderful product, when we
can pay such a suto Just to show the nick what it does? Won't you for your own sake let us prove its value to you?
We Will Buy
A 50c bottle of Liquozone and irlve It to
you to 1ry. Simply send us the coupon
iolow. Tell us tlittt you linve never uaed
It. Tell us for wlmt you want tt By re
turn mnll wo will send you an order on
your locnl druggist for n full size bottle,
and will puy your druggist ourselves
for it.
Our reason is this: Thousands of peo
ple whom Lltjuoeone could save are dy
ing today without It. Hundreds of thou
sands are helpless and sick, simply for
the lack of Liquozone. We cannot, under
conditions like those, wait to convinco
the sick ones by argument.
Any slow method ft Introducing Liquo
zone would seem almost a crime, know
ing what we do of this product. And,
knowing, as wo do, that nothing else In
the world can accomplish what Liquo
zone does. So we publish no tcHtlmonlals,
no evidence of cureH. Hut we buy a rOc
Imttle and give It free to every sick one
we learn of, suffering from a germ dis
ease. Thus we get Liquozone. into Im
mediate use, and let the jiroduct itself
prove its power. And we publish this
offer In l.Stsl newspapers and magazluee,
reaching practically every home in
America.
Not Medicine
Liquozone is the result of a process
which, for more than -t years, has been
the constant subject of scientific and
chemical research. The process consists
In generating gases, made in lare purt
from the best oxygen producers. These
gnxes are confined under pressure and.
by a secret process by the employment
of immense appunitus and 14 days' time
are made part of the liquid product.

VETERANS NEVER AT WAR
Soldiers Who. Did 7fot Reach the
Front Who Are Drawing;
Pension.
The apotheeaia of the penalon business
wa reached recently in Wathlngton with
an award to a member of the Metropoli
tan rifles, who waa newr a it ember of the
army or navy of the United Statea, regular
or volunteer.
There haa never been a question aa to
the title of veteran of actual war, civil,
Mexican or Bpanlsh-Amcrlcan, who were
at the front and In actual battle, wounded
ond rendt-red holr'css and dependent, to
receive the bounty of tho eorrrnment.
These conditions have been broadened of
late years. Men who guarded prisoner In
the aafe seeluHion of Johrson'a Island, men
who served bravely In the home guards,
men who made the rallrcad trip to the
capital and loitered behind the ' fortifica
tions for thirty or sixty days to rollev
soldiers who were needed at the firing line,
all those have been granted pensions to a
Acts Like Oxygen
The virtue of Liquozone lies in the fact
that It does what oxygen does. Oxygen
is the vital part of air. It is Nature's
greatest tonic, the very source of vitality,
tha most essential element of life. It is
oxygen Uiat turns tho blue, blood to red
in the lungs. It is oxygen that elimi
nates the waste tissue and builds up the
new. Every function of life so depends
on it that we could not live three min
utes without it
But oxygen is a gas, and unstable. We
cannot get an excess into the blood to re
main there. Liquozone is a liquid, with
all Its virtues in permnispnt form and
concentrated. It does what an excess of
oxygen would do. One result Is that
Liquozone acts as a tonic with which
no other known product can compare.
Kills Inside Germs
But the most Important fact la that
oxygen is also a germicide. No germs
can eslst In the presence of an excess of
oxygen. The reason is that germs are
vegetables: ond an excess of oxygen
the very life of an animal Is deadly to
vegetal matter.
And so with Liquozone. It is so certain
that we publish on every bottle an offer
of $1.X) for a disease germ that It can
not kill. Yet it is not only harmless, but
of the utmost benefit, to the cells of the
human body.
This is the fact which gives to Llquo
tone its remarkable value. It solves the
great problem of killing germs in the
body without killing the tlntues, too. And
there is no other way to do it. Any drug
that kills germs is a poison, and it can
not be taken internally. For that rea
son, medicine Is practically helpless in
any germ dlsense.
Liquozone, taken Internally, goes wher
ever the blood goes; and as no germ can
escape It, and none can resist it, the re
sults are inevitable. A germ disease
must end when the germs are destroyed;

greater or less extent on the general ground
that they are now old men, muny of them
helpless, and that having shown their wil
lingness to do something In the business) of
the civil war they are entitled to some
gratitude in dollars and cents. Even young
men who spent their summer vacation in
th quiet seclusion of Chlckamnug:i park
at government expense In 189S and who
never saw anything more hoslllo than a
mosquito have been given money on one
pretext or another from the pension fund
aftor some principle not generally under
stood, but for which tho taxpayers are
apparently willing to stand.
But when all is said and done the Metro
politan rificB of Washington appear to con
stitute the limit In 1861 there was unrest
In Washington while the city was waiting
for the advent of real troops who had been
dolled out to defend it. There was nn In
dependent military company or so about,
oomposed of citizens who were, like most
of the people here, southern In sympathy.
But it was at last decided advisable) for
the lntornal quiet of the capital to put
one or two of these Independent companlea
under arms for the moral effect It might
have on the more unpleasant elements of
the population. Moreover, euch a step
would free the few regular present for
more Important outpost duty.
The. Metropolitan rifles were ordered un
der arms, aa the sheriff of any county In
Ohio might order an independont military
company under arms as a posse for a tem
porary emergency. It waa not expected
that any retell would stray across Long
bridge that early In the day. Had they
done so the police force would undoubtedly
have placed them under arreot for carry
ing concealed weapons or for disorderly
conduct.
But tho Metropolitan rifles paraded. They
were never mustered into the service of
the government that any record notes.
They did the work that Souso'a band did
00,000
We Paid $100,000
For the American rights to Liqnozone
before we made the first bottle. That is
the highest price ever paid for similar
rights on any scientific discovery. Before
paying this price we tested Liquozone
for two years, through, physicians and
hospitals, in this country and others. We
proved. In thousands of the most difficult
cases obtainable, what Liquozone
would do.
We cured with it hundreds of patients
who had been given up to die. We cured
almost every diseases which was known
as incurable. We continued these tests
until the physicians who made them
stated that Liquozone was of more value
to sick humanity than nil the drugs In
the world combined. Then we stnkod
on the product our fortunes and our
reputations.
We tell you these facts to Indicate the
value of Liquozone. It Is easy to mrfke
claims, and easy to question them. But
when men of our class pay such a price
for a product, no one can doubt that we
have great reason for our faith in it.
We use Liquozone daily in our fam
ilies. We serve it to every employe in
our laboratory 4O0 of them. We use it
in all the water we drink to prevent
germ rontaglop. We use it to keep well,
as you will do when you know it.
Germ Diseases
The diseases in this list are known to
be due to germs or their toxins. Every
modern physician known that medicine
docs not apply to them, for medicine can
not kill inside germs.
All that medicine can do for these dis
eases is to act as a tonic, aiding Nature
to overcome the germs. Huch results are.
Indirect nnd uncertain. They depend on
the patient's condition. A cure by drugs
is always doubtful and often impossible.
Liquozone goes direct to the cause of
the trouble and destroys it. It often ends
