ONUS BILL
GOES BACK TO CONGRESS Anti-Bonus Senators Accuse President of Breaking Campaign Pledges
(BULLLETIN) By CEORGE R. HOLMES [STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE] WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 Undeterred by President Harding's vig. orous disapiroval, expressed in his veto message, the House of Representatives this afternoon passed the soldiers' bonus bill over his veto. By GEORGE R. HOLMES [STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE] WASHINGTON. Sept. 20. The battle-scarred soldiers' bonus bill went back to congress today apparently to die. The house is expected to prolong its life a little while by passing it over President Harding's vigorous veto. Then it will go to the senate, where a close check up revealed today that it will be given the death thrust. The bonus, however, cannot be considered as permanently interred, even after the senate sustains the white house veto. Friends of the bonus and they number a majority in both branches of congress and officers of the American Legion made this plain today. "This fight is only starting," Hanford MacNider. national commander of the American Legion told the International News Service today. "We are just taking off our coats. There is no thought of dropping it. "We won against seemingly great odds in France on occasion, and we are not discouraged now." Other friends of the bonus, in congress, asserted without qualification today that new bonus legislation will be introduced in the short session of congress, starting in December. "Whether the new legislation will duplicate the Fordney-Mc-Cumber bill, now doomed to death, has not been determined, but that there will be a new bonus bill there can be little doubt. Friend and foe of the present bill were hurrying alike to Washington today to be registered on the veto vote. The house, it appeared, will override the veto by a good majority, but the senate lineup made' its defeat certain, of the 32 or 33 senators known to be opposed to the bill, 31 were in the capital today or enroute here. Of the sixty-odd friends of the bonus, slightly less than 60 were known to be in Washington today. Unofficial figures set the senate vote at 47 or 48 against the president and against the bonus, Two-thirds are required to override a veto. President Harding's message did not cause any material change In the line up. It was disclosed today by senatorial comment... Speaking for the republican probonus forces, Senator James E. Watson, republican, of Indiana, said:
"While the president wrote a strong message, after all we are familiar with the argument stated and I do not, think it resulted in any change of votes. The republicans of the senate admire the president and desire to follow him politically, but I do not regard the bonus veto as a proposition on which they follow him after having made individual commitments to their constituents." Voicing the sentiment of the republican anti-bonus forces. Senator Edge, republican, of New Jersey, said: "The message should be convincing to the entire country that the president's heart is with the veterans, but that this bill cannot be enacted at this time when the general welfare is contemplated. It will be with great pleasure that I shall vote to sustain his veto. On behalf of the democratic probonus fo ,es. Senator Pat Harrison, crat, of Alabama, said: "The message sounded, very Mel-lon-esque. Those who believed the president would follow his usual course of breaking campaign pledges are not surprised. The same day the president denied a small recognition to the heroes of the late war, his party voted additional favors to the special interests that needed no help. For the democratic anti-bonus forces. Senator Underwood, demotcra. of Alabama, said: "The president's message was very clear, very strong and to the point. I shall vote to sustain him. The statements of the four seators are fairly indicative of the senatorial lines of division. Party lines will be disregarded in the vote as indicated by Senator Watson, recognized as a strong administration senator and on accasion a spokesman for the president, will be against him. while Underwood, the democratic minority leader, will vote to sustain him.

Stabbed by Neuritis!
Many people suffer attacks by this arch-fiend, commonly called "nerve inflammation.'' The first warning is usually a sharp, stabbing pain. which may "come and go" or hurt constant ly. You may feel it in the shoulder, neck, forearm, small of the back, or down the thigh and leg to the heel. It is sometimes mistaken for sciatica rheumatism, or neuralgia, which often end in neuritis. No matter where you have nerve pains or what caused them, you can get quick relief without using narcotics or poison. Just apply Tysmol over the part that hurts and in few minutes the pain will be gone. Tysmol is absorbed through the pores of the skin. It has a soothing, healing effect upon the diseased nerves, gradually helping to restore them to healthy condition. Don't suffer any longer. Price $1 at Weis Drug and Stationery Co. 98 State street.

ARGONAUT
MINE
GIVING UP DEAD Nine Bodies are Brought to Surface Last Night By Miners. JACKSON, CAL.. Sept. 20 Slowly, one by one, the Argonaut mine is giving up its forty-seven dead, who were trapped in its lower depths more than three -weeks ago by fire. The bringing to the surface of the decomposed corpses was to be resumed early today. Nine bodies had been returned to the surface last night, seven of which were identified. It is believed that when all of the forty-seven are brought to the surface, identification of the entire company will be eventually established by a process of elimination. The last of the bodies however, are not expected to be brought up until tomorrow night. Careful handling, tedious hauling and climbing are obstacles to this task. A coroner's jury of twelve of Jackson's business men has been impan-
elled and will visit the gold mine morgue today, preliminary to the inquest, which is scheduled for to-morrow. A group of legislators and legislators-elect has petitioned Governor Stephens to make an immediate inquiry into the mine disaster with a view to fixing the responsibility for the tragedy.

It's What The People Say About it That Causes Orders for Nearly a Million Bottles in O n e Month Big Indianapolis Druggists Elated. The greatest test any medicine can undergo is the "repeat" sales it enjoys. Tanlac's phenomenal record has been possible hecause of the fact that men and women who buy one bottle invariably return for the second and recommend it to others because it helped them. To say that Tanlac now has the largest sale of any medicine of its kind does not begin to tell the story. No other preparation has ever approached the marvelous success of Tanlac, and in the eight years it has been on the market 30,000,000 bottle have been sold. Between June 15 and July 15 of this year orders were received for nearly one million bottles, and it is evident that dealers are still enthusiastic over the ever-increasing demand, by the tone of letters with orders. The Kiefer-Stewart Co.. wholesale druggists of Indianapolis, Ind., under date of March 22nd, write: "In a year we hove sold 161,652 bottles of Tanlac. It is tremendously popular throughout our territory, and we consider it a most valuable agency." W. A. Hover & Co.. large wholesale druggists of Denver, Colo., writing under date of July 17, state: "We are submitting today our order for the fourth carload of you goods since April 1. Taking into consideration local conditions this demand is not only exceptional but alone in the record .sales for proprietary articles in this section." The tremendous popularity of Tanlac is the unquestioned and cutstanding proof of its merit. No medicine of less superlative quality and effectiveness could possibly at-
tain such a huge sales record nor sain, as Tanlac Bias, the unqualified endorsements of thousands of well. known men and women in all parts of the continent who stand or the best in their communities. Like all great successes. Tanlac has its imitators, and although
there are over a hundred preparations on the market claiming similar therapeutical value, many copying the original Tanlac advertising, the popularity of this preparation continues to grow, and it Is unquestionably the most talked of medicine in the world today. Tanlas is sold by all good druggists. Adv.
No signal was needed from Stegnalch, however. The shades and windows of the office were open. In the brightly lighted room, they saw Stegnaich pull the roil of bias out of his pocket and count them out on the window sill. Ukman was apparently hungry for cash. He watched over Stegnaich's shoulder aa he counted the $300 in denominations of tens and twenties. As soon as the reporters saw Stegnaich hand the bride over to Ukman they signaled the officers to start upstairs. This the party did in the short space of a few seconds
-in time to see the last bits of paper flutter to the floor from Ukman's hands. The evidence was strewn all over the floor in the inner office. UKMAN DUMFOUNDED Ukman appeared dumfounded. He was pallid in color and literally frozen to the floor, his hands hangin glimp. He was informed that he was under arrest and made no attempt to resist. The $100 personal check of Stegnaich's was still clutched in the owner's hand. Stegnaich told those present that Ukman did not want to take it, stating that "you cash it and give it to me. You are a good fellow and I will trust you until tomorrow." Ukman did not recover his wits until he reached the station. En route the officers thought they would have to carry him, he was so nervous. "I haven't done anything and Mr. Morgan will fix this up for me," was his reply to a question directed at him at the station. He was booked on an open charge, giving his age as 30 years and his birthplace as California. He was searched and besides the $300 bribe money found on his person, Ukman had $177 in bills in his pockets, which he claimed he had received that day for his work with the government officers. He told a reporter that Mr. Morgan employed him and for his work he received $10 a day and expenses. At the same time the money used as a bribe was checked over by the police and reporters and found to be the same as verified at the meeting place in the morning. WANTED TO SEE MORGAN Ukman, who was locked up in a cell, asked that he might call Mr. Morgan. "Sure you can call him and I will pay the charges," remarked Mayor R. O. Johnson, who hardened to be present. "I want
Mr. Morgan to know just what kind of cattle he has working for him."
It was later in the evening that Mr. Morgan and Mayor Johnson clashed at the station concerning certain alleged statements made byMr. Morgan that "he could neater get any co-operation from the Gary police department." "You have never once asked me for co-operation," Mayor. Johnson told him. "This is the first time I have ever met you. You have been in Gary dozens of time, but have you ever come to my office to ask me for any help? No, not once. You come to Gary and make your office with this dirty skunk (referring to Ukman)." "If you want co-operation and assistance. Mr. Morgan." continued the mayor. "I will be only too glad to help you and your men. All you have to do is to say so and we will give you good and efficient assistance. But I do not like to hear stories that you say we refuse to give vour department co-operation.
It is here for you whenever you want." Mr. Morgan thanked him but had little to say. It develops that the alleged warrants being used to extort money from the South Side foreigners by Ukman are not legal documents. Besides the one found torn into bits on the floor of Ukman's office, the police dug up another from the inside of Ukman's sock. PAPER A FORGERY According to Stegnaich, Ukman told him he was going to use it today to collect $500 from Obren Bogdanovich, pool room owner at 26 W. Thirteenth ave. Both papers bear the signature of U. S. Commissioner Charles Surprise of Hammond, but Mr. Morgan and his men stated last night that it was a forgery. That Ukman intended operating his shake-down game quite extensively in the near future is shown by Stegnalch's statement that he would have forty other affidavits of which he would be able to get $500 apiece. It wa also only a
week ago that Ukman made an aufo trip into the southern part of the state and part of Illinois with the intention of looking over the field. According to Stegnalch's story, Ukman told him it looked like a good spot to work and if he helped they could make a lot of money. Ukman intimated they could pick up a hundred thousand dollars .in a month or so. Stegnaich, who gave $1,000 bond before Charles Surprise Monday for violating tho state liquor law, states that Ukman told him he could get him off if he would help him. At 9 o'clock this morning Ukman was still in jail.
