WO.OOO TO FIGHT THE aoiuffliL Southern Members of Congress Have Resolved To Push. Bill Appro priating That Sum—Delega tion Named To Ask Aid of President. By Jos: OhJ. Washington, November 20.—(Special.)— Th* southern members of congress will *sk the government to appropriate half a f million dollars for the extermination of (the boll weevil pest which is destroying It he cotton of Texas and is such a menace to the crop of all the southern states. A number of conferences have been held «.t which the best method to secure gov ernment aid has been discussed. Today the representatives from all the cotton- Xrowfng states held a meeting in the minority room of tho house of repre sentatives, presided over by Hon. Sam iiobertson, of Louisiana. At this meeting formal indorsement was given to the plan (formulated by Hon. George Burgess, of (Texas, which provides for the creation of '« cotton commission to inquire into the li>;ects which destroy cotton, this to con sist of three expert heads of divisions in the agricultural department with two practical cotton planters from Texas and one from Louisiana. For the purposes of the work of this commission an appro priation of half a million dollars is to be asked. An appropriation of this size vss made to stamp out the foot and mouth diseases In New England, and it is believed that the efforts to get a slm |:ir appropriation for the protection of tho great cotton crop will be successful. A delegation of three members from eaqh of the cotton growing stat, s will call tipo n President Roosevelt tomorrow morning ■ urge that he Insert In his message a rei ommendation that this appropriation be made. The delegation consists of the fol lowing: Georgia, Griggs, Maddox and Bartle’t; Arkansas, Little, Brundidge, and Robin run; Texas. Burgess, Kandell, and Field; Louisiana, Pujo.

November 21.- < Special.)— J’reslder.t Roosevelt has given assurances •ili-it he will do e’. erything In his power to xid the plans for Investigation and ex termination <>f the cotton boil weevil. Th? delegation representing the cotton t owing states called upon him this morning and urged government aid. -dr. Iturgess. of Texas, was spokesman. He presented the proposition for a spec.al commission to have headquarters in the heart of the Infested district, and to have t-ngress appropriate half a million dol lars to meet the expense attached to the work. President Roosevelt said ho would .... suit more fully with Secretary Wil son and would take such, stops as may be of value. The fear Is express’d by col ton planters that unless radical m asur-'-s are adopt ed for the extermination of the pest, tne loss to the cotton growing states will ■aggregate ens of millions of dollars. Wilson's Remedy. Secretary Wilson has said that the only remedy which suggests Itself to him is that the planters put in their crops earlier, thus escaping the ravages of the weevil. Planters of cotton hold, however, that early’ plating will not meet the emergency. Some plan, they’ eon :<nd. for the absolute extermination or l ie pest must bo devised. It Is under stood that Secretary Wilson will make the recommendation In h's next report, which It Is hoped by the cotton growers will be carried Into execution. It Is ex pected that the president will approve or any practicable suggestions that may be made by Secretary Wilson. In any event, he will do. it Is said, all in his power, to second these efforts of the cotton grow- Another important step In the boll There are two kinds of emulsions of cod liver oil— Scott’s and all the others. Not one of the latter is as valuable as Scott’s Emulsion and there’s a reason for it. Only the purest ingredients enter our Emulsion and its quality never varies. That is why it helps when all others fall. There’s not much oil in the market now; it's scarce and high in price. But seal oil and other inferior oils are cheap and plentiful. That’s why you can buy so many substitutes for Scott’s Emul sion at a lower price. We guarantee our Emul sion to be the best remedy for weak lungs, low vitality and wasting conditions. Who guarantees the others ? We’ll send yoo • sample free, npon reqnest. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl Street, New York. LIVER ILLS DR. RADWAY & CO..

Superintendent of Poli.- 1 : Bradley, who is in charge of the force ’ employed to guard the lines of the Penn sylvania railroad west of Pittsburg, was ’ one of the principal speakers. He said > there were 150 000 tramps in the co.m --l try, of whom jhere are three classes: i The local riders, who live on the line j and when they get out of work try their 'luck In the next town; the professional i tramp who won't work, but has no harm in him, and the “yeggemL-n,” or eseap- i ed and discharged convicts, who would 1 not stop at murder to accomplish their ■ ends.

The fire originated from the furnace on the basement lloor, and ate its way al most to the top of the building before it was discovered. The tire department was called out in a hurry and made a quick run, but the fire had gained a terrific ; headway and it was impossible to cheek I it. It burned on with great fury for more than an hour, as the firemen fought to ! k< r-p ft from setting fire to the other buildings. Several times the Phi Kappa hall, built by Alexander H.

A cubic foot of colnag e gold is worth $290,977.92. Pension Commissioner AA’ara has computed that the outlay for pension.; since the foundation ot the government, if met In gold, would make an obelisk 10 feet square and 106 feet high. This Illustration perhaps gives an idea of what $3,000,000,000 means; a billion ord'nariiy expriessee something of which the human mind has little comprehension. It is an extraordinary’ fact that the total cost of the pension system from the >un uatlon of the government to June 30, 1865. or until the civil war. was itself over, a period of three-quarters of a cen tury. amounted to but $96,000,000, or the present disbursement for eight months and nine days. This Is an example of t'ne magnitude of modern operations. Pen sions for the revolutionary war have coat up to date but $70,000,000. and as there are but five revolutionary pen sioners now on the roll, the chapter is nearly closed. This revolutionary total represents about six months’ exp* miitinc today. The war of 1812. which has con tinued ns an active charge ua'il the present day, has cost but $45,000,000.
