ment Is “Dodd’s Kidney Pills are the

And Mr Peterson gives his reason
for thin Judgment- He says: "Last
winter I bad An aching pain in my
back which troubled me very -much
In the morning I could hardly straight-
en my back -1 did not know whatlt
wan but an advertisement Md me to
try Dodd’s Kidney Pills" After taking
one box I cep only aay tbey have done
more for me then expected Vs I feel as
well now an ever I did before"
Pain In the back la one of the first
symptoms of Kidney disease- If not
curqd by Dodd’s Kidney Pills 11 may
develop into Bright’s Dtseaee Dia-
betes Rheumatism' or some of the
other deadly forms of KfAney Disease

ST PETERSBURG: Hostllltlee In
Mnchurl apparently have not yet
reached the tge of a general engage-
ment ' Dispatches from commanders
Indicate that there Is steady iklrm-
Ishlng along the main front where
minor detachments are fighting back
And forth Aver practically the same
ground with no decided advantage to
either - r
These tactics seem designed chiefly
to maintain contact and to worry the
vanguards while sparring for position
before the development of the main
battle
The usual Chinese reports have
been received that a turning move-
ment has begun but the war office
discredits them and declares that no
considerable Japanese force has yet
appeared on General Linevitch’s
flank:
The Russian cavalry has lately been
acquitting itself with better effect
than ever Before since the beginning
of the present war and the members
of the general staff are confident of
ita ability to prevent a repetition of
General Nogl’a march on Mukden and
to uncover In aetaon any attempt of
the Japanese to circle the Russian
wings '
NEW8 HELD UP
Rqselan Censors Are Suppressing

ST PETERSBURG: Beyond the
bare announcement that firing was
again heard Saturday night In the
Jewish quarter at Lodz and that the
Jews are leaving the city in great
numbers there la almost nothing
known about the situation at Lodz
and the developments of Saturday and
Sunday
Even an adequate estimate of the
magnitude of Friday’s fierce struggle
In the streets and the extent' of the
hasualtles can not he obtained here
a s’ practically all telegrams except
brief and unsatisfactory messages to
the news agencies are held up by the
censorship
The newspapers are without informa-
tlon and -General Trepoff’s adjutant
informed the Associated Press that
the’ chiricfllorle of police had nothing
to cOmrSiflcate Ambassador Meyer
Is stack without news though Ameri-
can consuls are under orders to tele-
graph Immediate happenings of Im-
portance to their districts
' - This lack of Information prevented
any1 manifestation of feeling on the
part of theVorkmen of 8t Petersburg
many of whom are In sympathy with
social revolutionary -- doctrines and
for the same reason there U little dis-
cussion In the clubs nnd cafes most
of the people not being aware that
Anything unusual is happening In
Poland ’ ' t
When the details become known It
may be expected that the news will
create the deepest Impression In all
industrial s sections of Russia and be
the result of disorders which will be

SORE ON HITCHCOCK
Indicted Chickasaw Officials Call law
veatlgatlen Drag-Net Affair '
- SOUTH McALESTER: As a result
ef the Indictments returned by the
grand Jury at Ardmore against promi-
nent Chickasaw tribal officers It Is
very probable that damage suite will-
be filed against Secretary of the In-
terior Hitchcock and several metro-
politan newspapers who published the
premature and erroneous reports sent
out from Washington' It was an-
nounced at Washington that Indict-
ments bad been returned against
Mansfield Murray and Cornish tri-
bal attorneys Gov D H Johnston
nnd ex-Gov Palmer 8 Moseley charg-
ing them with being connected with
the fraudulent reissue of school war-
rants three days before the warrants
were Issued The lndlctmentr of the
governor ex-governor nnd tribal at-
torneys wee made Jointly '
The bill recites that certain salary
and expense warrants were Issued to
the attorneys and cashed without the
approval of the federal government
The tribal authorities contend that
they have a written opinion by Sec-
retary Hitchcock Issued in 1900 in
which he declares that 'the federal
government has no supervision ot
salary and expense accounts of the
tribes and at the time of this opinion
the warranto named In the Indictment
were upon the secretary’s desk hav-
ing been called In by reason of a house
resolution by Congressman Stephens
of Texas asking for a report on them
Identical accounts
The bad blood existing betweei
Secretary Hitchcock and the tribal
authorities indicted Is considered
responsible for the dragnet being
plied by a special inspector detailed
by Mr Hitchcock
AU of the other parties Indicted
are charged with offenses separate
from the attorneys and governors
