BY LONG EXPERIENCE

Man Who Will Take Bryan's Place Temporarily Figured In Many Intemational Matters.

WASHINGTON, D. June 9.— Robert Lansing, of New York, who will it&ke up temporarily the portfolio of the department of state, has the distinction of having represented the

United States in more international arbitrations than any other living American. More than that, he has had

longer and broader experience in international tribunals than any other living lawyer.

With his appointment in 1892 as associate counsel for the United StateB in the fur seal arbitration, he entered upon what has been practically a continuous international service. He attended the sessions of the international tribunal in Paris in 1893 in 1894-'5 he served as counsel for the Mexican and Chinese legations at Washington in 1896 he was appointed by Richard Olney, then secretary of state under. President Cleveland, counsel for the government before the Bering sea claims commission, the sessions of which were held at Victoria, Montreal, and Halifax in 1896-'7.

During the next two years he represented private parties before the Canadian joint high commission, and in 1900-'l again served as counselor for the Mexican and Chinese legations. In 1903 he was appointed solicitor and counsel for the government before the Alaiskan boundary tribunal, acted as counsel for private clients in the Veneauelan asphalt disputes in 1905 and as counsel for the United States in the Atlantic fisheries arbitration at The Hague in 1908.

He was technical delegate of the government in the fur seal conference at Washington in 1911 and special counsel for the department of state on various diplomatic questions and for the negotiation with Great Britain of the claims to be arbitrated under the special agreement of 1910. In 1911 he was counsel for the United States in the American and British claims arbitration, and served as agent of the United States before this commission until from 1913 until his appointment as counselor of the state department in March, 1914,

TROTS, HUGS, ETC., VULGAR, DANCING MASTERS' DECREE.

International Association Members Combine to Devise New Step.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., June 9.— The International Association of Dancing Masters, who began a six day convention today, with demonstrations of new steps, has decided that the grizzly bear, turkey trot, bunny hug, the Argentine tango, glides and all such things are vulgar and barbarous and must be abolished.

To assure this a new dance will be evolved by the sixty-five leading masters of the United States and Canada. The name of it will be announced next Thursday.

The new step Is to be a "happy mefiium" between tjje fox trot, the canter waltz, the one-step and the good oldfashioned waltz and two-step.

URGES UNION OF NATIONS.

Lodge Says It Would Bo Futile to Abolish Armament. SCHENECTADY, N. Y., June 9.—

Joday

lenator Henry Cabot Lodge, speaking at the commencement exercises at Union college, asserted that world peace would never be maintained without strong force, and advocated a union of nations with international police afloat and ashore, strong enough to overcome the strongest individual state.

It would be as futile, Senator Lodge said, to abolish armaments as it would be to abolish fire because fire sometimes caused great conflagrations, or knives because knives inflicted wounds. A general reduction of armaments, he said, should be sought with earnestness, "but for one nation to disarm and leave itself defenseless in an armed world is a direct incentive and Invitation to war."

STOLEN AUTOS RECOVERED.

George J. Nattkemper, 1225 South Center street, reported his Ford automobile stolen from on Eighth street, between Wabash avenue and Ohio street, Tuesday night but the police located the machine northeast of the city Wednesday morning.

James P. Harkness reported that his Ford Jitney bus was stolen but it also was later recovered at the 7-mile post on the Brazil line by Blcycleman Gary Thompson and Mr. Harkness.

DO YOU FEEL DEPRESSED?

The form of influenza commonly called "the grip" is no respcctoi of persons. Rich and poor alike suffer from it.

The duration of the acute stago of the grip is shprt, a few days at most. Without complications it is never fatal. What makes the grip so dreaded is the miserable condition in which it leaves its victims after the cold and fever have run their course. Some medical writers refer to this "aftereffect" of the grip as a form of neurasthenia.

Depression of spirits, headache, thin blood, deranged digestion, over-sensi-tive nerves—these are the usual aftereffects of the grip, and they will,continue even-for months and year3 until the blood is built up and made rich and red.

After an attack of the grip ail the vital powers of the body are at a low ebb. Building up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is the surest way to restore the weakened body. They have a special action on the nerves -'ind every sufferer from the lingering effects of the grip should give them a trial. Your own druggist sells tliem.

tronized our store during this day lias made us all feel that our efforts have not been in vain. The suburban shop per awakened to the fact that Terre Haute is still on the map when they came to the city and saw that we are really sincere in the offers we make. There is not a single thing tnac is in the show windows which is not of first class quality. There was not a bargain which has been made just to clear out our stock. All the best spring and summer stock which we have in our stores suffered the same reductions that gave to things that were in the stores for a longer time. I think that satisfaction has been guaranteed and I know that in my own store that my clerks and I had more than enough work taking care of the shoppers."

Autos Bring Many.

During the day the traction company carried many of out-of-town residents to the city. The railroads also carried many, but what was most probably the most popular method of travel was by automobile. Many parties of suburbanites In their cars arrived in the city bent upon Investigating for themselves the merits of the sales day which the merchants of this city have been for the past three weeks pushing to the front.

From many stores flags were hung out over the street. The windows presented especially attractive appearance, decorated as they were with every art and skill of the experienced dresser.

On a whole, the concensus of opinion among the shoppers who patronized the day was, it was a success in every detail. They said the results of their trip to Terre Haute had been quite beyond their expectations.

With the success of the day comes the assurances of the merchants of the city Chaf Suburban day will be a permanent thing. They say that due to the hearty support of the out-of-town resident they can do but little else but continue the day. jg

RUMOR DENIED THAT DANIELSISTO RESIGN

Continued From Page One.

Bryan today went back to private life. The resignation of the secretary of state of the United States over the difference of a vital Question of for eign policy-r-itself unusual in the annals of American history—was most dramatically touched by numerous manifestations of personal regard Kir Mr. Bryan and his own emotion at leaving the office.

President Stands Firm.

The story of his effort to sway tho president's Judgment on the method of dealing with the situation with Germany ls„ as yet, untold. He made no effort to align other members of the cabinet with him and when he came to the parting of the ways on an irreconcilible question of principle he did not tell his colleagues generally, hoping that his action to the last would not produce any complications in the cabinet.

For three days—from Saturday until Monday—the president had Mr. Bryan's resignation under consideration and the secretary did not go to yesterday's cabinet meeting until the president's letter of acceptance reached him. The president had invited him to attend after letting the cabinet know of the situation. Quietly the consideration of the note continued and at the end of the meeting the president and remaining members of tho cabinet expressed to Mr. Bryan their sense of personal regret.

The close personal relationship of Mr. Bryan and the president will be reflected in the former secretary's future course, it was learned today authoritatively. Mr. Bryan intends to continue a staunch political supporter of Mr. Wilson on domestic affairs and believes he can even assist him in the sentiment he hopes to build up for the principle of investigation of disputes before hostilities are begun.

Effect May be Great.

The outstanding feature, however, of the situation was the effect of Mr. Bryan's resignation on the situation between the United States and Germany. Heretofore there have been many intimations from official sources in Berlin that the viewpoint of the United States as expressed in the notes sent could not be taken seriously because of the knowledge that Secretary Bryan was committed against drastic measures. In one of his speeches Mr Bryan had said that while he wa*j secretary 6f state there never would be war. His withdrawal at a critical moment over the very question of adopting a firm and Vigorous policy was regarded In official and diplomatic quarters here as likely to produce a profound impression on the German government.

In the present crisis Mr. Bryan is understood to have insisted upon and convinced the president that to remain In the .cabinet would be very embarrassing to him because of hi£"'known advocacy of the cause of peace, particularly his negotiation of nearly thirty peace treaties with the principal nations of the world.

The principle of these treaties is that all disputes be submitted to an international commission for a year's investigation, during which hostilities are forbidden. Treaties of this kind have been negotiated with practically all nations except Japan, Germany and Turkey. Germany has accepted the principle of the treaties. The president heartily endorsed the idea of the treaties.

The situation with Germany, however, constitutes a case which high officials here believed could not be submitted to a tribunal for Investigation unless some definite guarantee was given in advance that the acts complained of would not be repeated while the discussion or Investigation was in progress.

Closes Up Affairs.

Mr. Bryan was up earljt today to begin closing up his affairs at the state department. Before breakfast he took a long horseback ride alone through Rock Creek park and then, returning to his home, Calumet Place, formerly the mansion of General John A. Logan, received one caller, Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of labor, who stopped on1 his way to his office to speak a word of regret at the secretary's departure.

Mr. Bryan said he would issue his promised statement, giving in detail his reasons for resigning,' some time today after the note to Germany has been started on Its way to Berlin. "I will make it public as soon as I learn that I am no longer secretary of state," he said. "That will be when the note is dispatched."

So far as department records show Mr. Bryan is the first secretary to resign as the direct result of a clear issue with the president on roretgn policy. Some of his predecessors have had differences with their chiefs, but usually those have arisen from divergent views on details of negotiations, but never have they developed to a point Involving the surrender of a portfolio.

The nearest approach to Secretary Bryan's action recalled here was the resignation in' 1898 of James' A. Gary, of Maryland, postmaster-general In President McKlnley's cabinet. His resignation was based upon repugnance to the approaching war with Spain.

At 12:30 o'clock Mr. Bryan left the state department and went to th© while house, where President Wilson received him.

For 'fifteen minutes the president and Mr. Bryan talked, exchanging words of farewell. The secretary was making his last official call on the president, but nevertheless the personal element was present.

Cordially and without any trace of feeling the two men talked of the situation which resulted in Mr. Bryan's resignation. Those who saw them were touched with the regard the two men displayed for each other.

Finally Mr. Bryan remarked that he knew the president was a very busy man and that he would not detain him longer. The two men who had stood together during the last two years in one crisis after another rose to their feet simultaneously and clasped hands. "God bless you," said each as their hand* touched.

lURRE HAUTE TRIBUNE

"UNUSUAL" SAYS TRAINED NURSE

Mrs. Coffman, After Long Experience With Medicines, Is, Herself, Benefited.

UNGRATEFUL IF SHE DID NOT HIGHLY RECOMMEND TANLAC

Declares That the Remarkable New Preparation Has Helped Her More Than Everything Else

Combined.

Mrs. Emma Coffman, the efficient trained nurse who Is known in so many of the best homes of the city, has made a remarkable statement regarding Tanlac, the new medicine that Is being so widely discussed in Terre Haute and vicinity. Mrs. Coffman said: "I have had such an extensive experience with medicine that I feel that I should be considered a fairly good Judge of such preparations. When this Tanlac was placed on the market I watched its introduction with considerable interest, as I was ramiliar with its success in other cities. "I determined to give it a trial In my own case. I had suffered with stomach trouble for several years and while 1 used a number of preparations in the hope of bettering my condition, I had no faith in anything I took or that was prescribed for me and tjie results were never satisfactory. I had scarcely used a bottle of Tanlac, however, before I appreciated its beneficial effects. "My digestion had been very poor, gas forming on my stomach immediately after eating. I had been extremely nervous and any sudden noise or excitement would cause a palpatation of my heart that alarmed me. I frequently and periodically had headaches and was completely worn out most of tho time. 'There certainly is something to this Tanlac. It has done me more good than everything else combined. It is the first time I ever recommended a proprietary medicine publicly, but I feol that I would be ungrateful if I did not consent to tell the public about the relief which Tanlac produced. Tanlac is really a very unusual preparation, and .will do any woman or man good."

Such statements as Mrs. Ooffman's should prove of peculiar interest to those who suffer from stomach, liver, kidney and intestinal aliments, or catarrh, and such people are innumerable In all cities like Terre Haute. Women and men who ,are so affected have imperfect digestion, suffer from constipation, lack of energy and ambition, feel melancholy and discouraged, have gastritis, backache, headaches, poor memory, pains in the pit of the stomach, side and kidney region, develop some catarrhal affection and aro very susceptible to coughs and colds.

Tanlac, the celebrated combatant, tonic, appetizer and invlgorant, overcomes that very trouble and brings back color to the cheeks and the sparkle of health to the eyes. Thousands here and elsewhere testify that Tanlac is superior to all other medicines.

Tanlac Is now sold in Terre Haute at the Buntln Drug company, Sixth and Wabash, where W. R. Cooper is on hand dally to meet the public and courteously explain Tanlac.—Advt.

KRIETENSTEIN'S CONTEST OVER ANOTHER WEEK

gaged In a heated argument concerning the mode of questioning. Attorney Slinkard brought out by the witness that he had filled in the body of the application and sought to show by comparison that he had also signed the name at the bottom. Finally Surratt admitted that he had signed that application.

William Hughes, also one of the 22 who came from Marion county and who is serving a sixty day sentence, was examined at length on the applications he admitted making out during the registration. He said he loafed a good deal at the saloon of Sylvester Jordan, Third and Eagle streets, which is In precinct of the Sixth ward. Jordan was committeeman of that precinct. Hughes appeared to take considerable Interest in the tilts between Attorneys Slinkard and Cooper during the first part of his evidence when It was sought to bring out the number of applications he had made himself. He testified that more than three hundred of the applications used during the registration In that precinct were fictitious and that the greater part of them were made by him alone. Hughes said prior to the registration, he, with Jordap, made a trip through the precinct to look at the houses and see in their judgment how many registrations could be made with impunity. He said on registration day he had help from Joseph Kelley, James Gillespie, Peter Feller, Ad Rogers and Sylvester Jordan In making out the applications. He was not cross-examined at any length, Slinkard merely asking if he were positive that he had made out the applications testified to in trie direct examination.

The witness was excused, but after a short recess was called back to identify another bunch of applications. These applications, he said, were made out In the barrel house of Samuel Rosenbaum, on West Wabash avenue. When asked to explain, he said "Rosenbaum went back in the back room of his barrel house and rounded up some of those old timers and distributed them around with the applications in an automobile."

Lime-Loss In Tuberculosis

In tlie Jonrnnl of the American Medic*! Association (January 17, 1914) wm tle following: "It lias been many times stated that In tuberculosis or In the pietubcrculosls stage an Increased apnount of calcium (lime) ia loat both in the urine and feces. In fact, a demineralization haw been thought to be a fore-runner of the development of tuberculosis "Forced feeding of tuberculosis patients and the enormous amount of eggs and milk once given auch patients are not now considered advisable by a large number of physicians who are specializing in the treatment of pulmonary ••tuberculosis,"

If tuberculosis Is due to a loss of lime from the system, the success of Eckman's Alterative In the treatment of thlc disease may be due, In part, to the fact that it contains a lime salt so combined with other valuable Ingredients ar, to be easily assimilated.

Always we have urged users of Eckman's Alterative to attend strictly to matters of food.

In addition to rest and proper diet, some effective remedial agent seems to be needed, and in numerous cases of apparent recovery from tuberculosis and kindred throat and bronchial affections Eckman's Alterative has supplied this need.

It does not contain opiates, narcotics or habit-forming drugs, so it is safe to try. Your druggist has it or will order It, or you can get it from us direct.

tivlties on registration day in a colored saloon at Third and Mulberry street. He testified that he made out one hundred and twenty-one applications for eolored voters In precinct A of the Sixth ward. He was handed the applications alleged to have been made out by him and looked them over closely, examining them one at a time. Once or twice the semblance of a smile illuminated his face, but for the most part he looked with little emotion on the documents which started him on his three months sentence.

The -witness testified that all the names In the entire number were fictitious. He said that on election day he and Frank Hess, west end saloonkeeper, were at the Hines saloon the greater part of the day, while Hlnes and Jack Tierney, another saloonkeeper, were looking after the interests at the polls. He said he only voted once, but that some of the applications made out by him were used in precinct of the Sixth ward.

On cross-examination he testified that he had been a bartender for about a year and a half and that some years ago he was a switchman, having worked last for the Big Four Railroad company, where he gained the name "Footboard Pete." He denied that he operated a gambling room over what was the Hines saloon, where he and Maurice Chase slept, and denied that he conducted a "hop Joint" or a place frequented by users of opium. He said he polled the precinct in 1912, and at that time there were about 550 voters there, but when questioned further denied there were any more. He said he did not know whether the names appearing on the applications identified as made out by him were given to men of that name or not, but admitted that such men might have liived In the precinct, but said he did not know of them.

He said the registration applications were made out in various places in the saloon, the bar, table and back room, and said the ages were fixed to suit the men to whom they were given. On redirect examination he said he used the poll book used in the previous election to make out some of the names. During the re-direct examination the leading attorneys for the opposing sides had frequent clashes, Slinkard chargng Cooper with leading the witness by the line of his questioning.

Jack Hines, who was on the stand at the noon hour, caused almost continual laughter by his method of answering questions. He was asked by Slinkard on cross-examination if he was sure there might not have been changes in the west end that he did not know of. It had been brought out by the plaintiff attorney that Hines was familiar with the habitutes of that locality, and therefore knew what he was talking of when he testified as to the number of voters in the precinct. Hines replied answer to the question that there might have been many changes since the election and the grand jury probe recently, but in former years there had

Attorney Slinkard asked the witness if he was pretty busy on election day, and received the following: "I must halve been busy, for we got In •more than 700 votes, and were ready to close the polls before 4 o'clock." On a direct examination the witness told of the card system used by he, Buster Clark and Enno Harms to pay the voters who voted "right." He said, however, that some one was double-cross-ing them and giving them Ferguson cards when they had not voted, and it was necessary to use brass checks from his saloon.

Hess Favored Republicans, Frank Hess, who is now waiting judgment at the federal court, having pleaded guilty, said he sent four men in to vote a split ticket. He said the men were instructed to vote for Roy Shattuck, Warren Soules, Morton Holmes, William Fears and William Myers. Hess was the republican precinct committeeman. He said, however, that all the remainder oi the men sent in by him were Instructed to vote the straight democratic ticket and be sure to get a card from the Inspector with his O. K. upon It or they would not be paid.

All of the men who arrived from Indianapolis looked well with the exception of Sylvester Jordan, who appears to have lost considerable weight. The men laughed and joked with their acquaintances.
