General Sam uel Pearson, formerly of the Boer army, has returned to Washington from New Orleana, where he went to gather proof to sustain his charge that the British authorities In Louisiana had. In violation of the laws of neutrality, set up a regular military establishment from which their army in South Africa was be ing furnished with men, horses, mules and supplies. General Pearson tonight declared that America had contributed at least 42,000 men to aid the British In their fight against the Boers and had furnished the British government with 201,149 horses and mules. The men consist of muleteers shipped from New Orleans, some of whom have been compelled to enlist against the burghers and paid agents and men who are sent throughout the country to buy up horses and mules. He said there are one British general, two colonels and sixty captains and lleutenasts in this country now, with headquarters at New Orleans. The general alleged that although men are engaged with the understanding that when they reach Capetown they may re turn on the first ship leaving for the United States, their passage la refused or long delayed and every Influence brought on them to enlist In the British army. With every shipload of mules sent to South Af rica the disguised British officers in charge of the transport and cargo, be said, employ a small army of men to take care of these animals, securing enough men to assign one to every two or three mules. WASHINGTON, April 3. Secretary Hay has received from Governor Heard of Louisiana, the statement referred to In this morning's publications, alleging the exist ence of a British camp at Chalmette, Just below New Orleans, on the Mississippi river. The governor's communlcstion Is volumin ous, comprising statements and affidavits Intended to disclose the character of the alleged camp. By direction of the presi dent, it has been referred to the attorney general with a view to securing an opinion on certain legal points Involved, and mean while It will not be given out for publica tion. While the State department will not hesi tate a moment to make Inquiry Into the correctness of any such charges preferred by any responsible person, such as the governor of Louisiana, It Is believed that even now the department Is not without Its own Ideas as to what Is going on at Chalmette and . this knowledge has not shaken the department's original view that these operations are entirely lawful, and that there is no power in the national or state governments to prevent them. So long as the shipments from Chalmette are confined to horses, live stock, fodder and provisions and the port is not made the departure of a naval or military . expe dition, it is beld that there is no warrant for Interference even it the supplies are bought directly by the British government. TRIBUTE TO JOHN P. ALTGELD Ex-Governor Is Pronounced a Hero Who Fought Valiantly and Died Glorloaoly. NEW YORK. April 4. A worklngmen's memorial service in honor of the late John P. Altgeld, former governor of Illinois, was held tonight at Copper Union. A. J. Boul ton called the meeting to order and Henry George, jr., was Introduced as the chair man for the evening. Mr. George said there never was a greater hero than Altgeld and declared he had the courage to carry out his convic tions no matter what anyone said or thought or did. John N. Parsons said it was to be regretted that ths trlbuts to Altgeld could not have been paid him be fore his death. "Although dead," he said, "his works live after blm." "What I say here tonight," said Clar ence S. Darrow of Chicago, "will not make those, who hated Altgeld feel any more kindly toward the dead hero. He never cringed nor fawned to friend or foe. He never sought the press to speak kindly of him or cared what the people said. Hs did his work and was content to let the future regard his memory. He is dead now and can afford to wait and his namo shall shine ef the work that he did for the poor. He knew no creed, no nation ality. He believed In equal rlghta for all men." Resolutions were passed expressing re spect for the memory of Governor Altgeld ss one who "fought valiantly and died gloriously tn the greatest of all causes that of humanity." The resolutions mentioned the pardoning of the anarchists and set forth that Gov ernor Altgeld took the ground that the men had not been convicted fairly and by due process ef law. WOULD RELIEVE CUBA MORE Ways and Means Reciprocity Plan Criticised la First Mi nority Substitute. WASHINGTON, April 4. The first of the miaorlty reports on the Cuban reciprocity bills was Bled by Representative McClellan of New York of the ways and means com mittee, who argues that the bill gives Cuba much less In the way of relief than It Is justly entitled to. He cites the Teller resolution and the Piatt amendment as es tablishing our assurances to Cuba and the world. Mr. McClellan then saya: First, the bill doea not afford aufflclent relief to Cuba, but It minimises the loss of the present crop of sugar. Second, It Is possible, nut not certain, that a 20 per cent reduction of ths Cuban tariff will result In giving us a monopoly of the Cuban market. Third, the bill la an enunciation of the democratic doctrine of reciprocity. It is a breach In the wall of protection and lowera In part the preposterous Dlngley rates. If I am afforded the opportunity when the bill comes before ths committee of the w hole I shall try to amend It by Increasing the rats of reduction ao as to make certain not only the control of the Cuban market by us, but also the prosperity of Cuba. 1 shall alao try to amend by striking out the time limit. Falling to amend for the reaaons hers stated. I ahall vote for tha bill.

Sentence as pronounced aa a result of the aUrl Lint Ilealth will come with all Its blrssinjra to thoso who know the way, and it Is mainly a qnps tlon of riljht-liviujr, with all the term implies, but the efforts which strengthen the system, tho panics which refresh and the foods which nourish are Important, each in a way, while it is also advantageous to have knowledge of the best methods of promoting; freedom from unsani tary conditions. To assist nature, when nature needs assistance. It is all important that the medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of known value, and the one remedy which acts most beneflcially and pleasantly, as a laxative, la Syrup of Fis manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical Ills are of a transient char" acter and yield promptly to the frentlc action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and comfort come to the heart, and if one would remove the torpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a con stipated condition of the system, take Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and the depression due to inactivity of the bowels. In case of any organic trouble it is well to consult a competent physician, but when a laxative is required remember that the most permanently gratifying results will follow personal cooperation with the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs. It Is for sale by all reliable druggists. Trice fifty cents per bottle. The excellence of Syrnp of Figs comes from the beneficial effects of the plants used in the combination and also from tho method of manufacture which ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product essential in a perfect family laxative. All the members of the family from the youngest to the most advanced in years may use it whenever a laxative is needed and share alike in its beneficial effects. We do not claim that Syrup of Figs is the only remedy of known value, but it possesses this great advantage over all other laxatives that It acts gently and pleasantly without disturbing natural functions, in any way, as it is free from every ob jectionable quality or substance.

WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS I BaLTiwoaa, Md., March jo, lost. Ctnllenun : Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of ray case, to be um-d at your discretion. About five years ago my right ear began to aing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost ' my hearing in Otis ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num. berof physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then ceae, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it onlvafew days according to your directions, the noiws cessed. end to-day. after five weeks, my bearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours. P. A. WERMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation.
