BRET HARTE DEAD IN LONDON
American Aathor Die Sndilenly of
Hemorrhage Canard by Affec
tion of Throat.
LONDON, May . F. Bret Harte, the
American author, died here last night. H
was born at Albany, N. Y., August 25, 1839.
Mr. Harte died suddenly at the Red
House, Camberly, near Aldershot, from
hemorrhage, caused by an affection of the
throat.
Mr. Harte had been living quietly In
England for years. Moet of his time was
spent In the country and when he was tn
London he was almost equally secluded,
having few visitors to his rooms at Lan
caster gate, and only going to the houses
ot a limited number of very intimate
friend.
Several months ago, when a falee report
of his health was circulated in America, a
representative of the Associated Press
called at his rooms. Mr. Harte then ap
peared to be perfectly well. He laughed
heartily and quoted Mark Twain's old say
ing about thi report being greatly exag
gerated. "Except for a little cold," aaid
Mr. Harte, "I have no ailments or com
plaints. While I am getting to be a pretty
old man," pointing to bia snow-white hair,
"there is life In the old dog yet," and
thereupon he lit a cigar so large that it
would hav done credit to any ot his Poker
Flat friend.
He wa hoping, be said, to do more
work, but he confessed he was growing
laay.
, Mr. Harte had been suffering from
welled tonsils sine December last, but hs
did not consider the attack to be serious.
A week ago he went to visit friends at
Camberly, and waa present at lunch, as
usual, yesterday. He suddenly became ill
In the afternoon, went to bed and died in a
few hours. His end was peaceful.
The afternoon newspaper made very
sympathetic comments on the death of Bret
Harte. HI work, says the Pall Mall Qa
sette, was the common property of Anglo
Saxons on both sides of the Atlantic.
The Westminster Oaxette remarks: The
world has lost one of the most beloved of
Its writer.

Abuses bj American 8oldira.
NOT IMPELLED BY BEST OF MOTIVES
With Senator Hoar He Defends the
Work of (he Philippine tnminli-
lon ( armark of Trnnra
are Seeks Cover.
WASHINGTON, May . For almost four
hour today the discussion on the Philip
pine question raged In the senate. It wss
started by Mr. Beverldge of Indiana, who
made some sharp strictures on the mem
bers of the opposition because, aa he said,
they persisted In telling In their speeches
only one side of the story. While he ad
mitted that some outrsges had been com
mitted by American aoldler in the Philip
pine, It was true, too, that unparalleled
kindness had been shown by the American
troops to Filipino prisoner and Filipino
wounded. Food and medicine, be said, had
been ahared with them, and they had been
succored on the battlefield and cared for
tenderly in the hospitals. While saying
that the omission to tell this side of the
story by the democrats was Unintentional
he suggested that it was unfair to make an
arraignment of the American soldier and
not tell both sides.
Democrats Resent Imputation.
Mr. Carmack and Mr. Rawlins warmly
resented any imputation of onfalrnesa. Mr.
Rawllna declared that no partisan motives
had actuated the opponents of the present
1'muppine policy, but that they were moved
only by patriotism and love of country.
Mr. Turner of Washington delivered a
scathing criticism of tha methods practiced
by the military authorities in the Philip
pines, dwelling particularly on the alleged
order of General Smith, whom he de
nounced as a moeter In hitman form. He
urged the Philippine commission to turn
all the light possible on the Philippine
question to the end that the people might
be fully informed on the situation.
Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts briefly de
fended th action of the Philippine commit
tee, saying that already it had furnished
much valuable Information. He urged that
the committee. In all Justice, should call
some prominent Filipinos to testify In thetr
own behalf.
Reminders of Mortality.
In his Invocation In the senate today
Rev. Dr. Mllburn. the blind chaplain, re
ferred feelingly to the unparalleled fact of
the death of three member of the house of
representative In four days. His allusion
was : -
Let those solemn end frentient r.mlnHQ,a
of our mortality come home to us all with
impressive weignt, and so may we walk
in the world that when we depart hence
It may be well with us.
On motion of Mr. Allison a house Joint
resolution making an additional appropria
tion of 110.000 for the dedication of the
statue of Marshall de Rochembeau, to be
unveiled in the city of Washington, waa
passed.
A bill to apportion the term of office of
senators elected at the first general elec
tion held in the territory of Hawaii waa
passed.
Mr. Beverldge, a member of the Philip
pine committee, then addressed the senate
to correct, a h said, an unintentional mis
statement made by Mr. Rawllna of Utah
concerning the application of the water
cure to Filipino who had burned Sergeant
O'Herne to death. He read from the testi
mony to show that Mr. Rawlins' statement
was not accurate.
Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts Inquired It it
was a fact proved by testimony that Amer
ican soldiers had tortured Filipinos until
they had confessed to tha commission of
crime T
Water Core In O'Herne Case.
Mr. Beverldge said it had been proved
that the water cure bad been administered
in tha dreadful O'Herne case. By the con
fession of the Filipinos to whom the water
cure had been given it had been learned
that O'Herne had been burned to death
over a alow Are and his body subsequently
had been hacked to pieces. The confession
of the Filipinos Included the location ot
O'Herne' remains. Investigation disclosed
those remains, which were Identified.
Mr. Beverldge and Mr. Patterson became
Involved in a spirited colloquy over the
treatment of the Filipino by the Ameri
can soldiers, which was Interrupted by Mr.
Carmack of Tennessee, saying:
"Th conduct if American soldiers in the
Philippines wa uniformly kind wherever
it was permitted to ba so. In cases where
it was otherwise they were driven to the
cruelties by their superior officer."
Glad to Hear aa Apology.
Mr. Beverldge aald he was glad at this
late date to bear an apology for attacks
made upon th American soldier and In
quired If Mr. Carmack could mention more
than a single instance where an officer
had ordered th administration of torture to
a Filipino.
Mr. earmark replied that he had not re
ferred to any special order, but that the
general order of Generate Bell and Chat
fee indicated that In th opinion of those
officer th American troop wer treating
th Filipinos too kindly.
Mr. Beverldge ridiculed this answer of
Mr. Carmack, declaring that when he asked
him a direct question he replied in a dla
phanoua way of th order of Bell and
Chaff. The -minority senators, he said,
hould confine themselves to the record a
mad and in connection with the Instances
of cruelty, which all bitterly regretted
tbey should in Justice show that the Fll
Iplno prisoners had received the same food,
the sams medicine and had been attended
in th same hospitals by the same nurses
as the American aoldier.
Rawllna Say Ha Wa Accurate,
Mr. Rawlins of Utah contended that every
statement he had mad in his discussion ot
this question waa essentially accurate. II
discussed th O'Hern case and said tha
opinion he had gotten from the teatimony
had been that th Filipino had been In
duced to make th confession suggested to
them by the administration of the water
cure. He resented Mr. Beverldge' impu
tatton that th minority waa arraigning the
American soldiers. Mr. Rawllna aald out
ragsa in the Philippine wer due, not to
th soldier themselves, but to th highest
military authorities tn the islands. The
responsibility tor them. Indeed, was to be
placed properly at tha door ot th admlni
tratloo official her in Washington.
"Until recently." said he, "I had thought
that those thing war sporadic and iso
lated, but I hav bean forced to th belief
that they ar but a part of th geaeral plan
of campaign."
Turner Open I' p.
Mr. Turner of Washington spoke upon th
bill. He declared It unwise, unpatriotic
cruel and Inhuman to attempt to make
the Philippines a permanent part et th
territory ot th United State. He then
criticised th refusal of th senate com
mlttee on th Philippine to summon Ag
ulattldo, Mablnl, Major Gardener and others.
H would feel constrained, he aald, if the
present methods of th Philippine com
mitts ar continued, to declare that it
doe not want th truth, but it la deter
mined to strangle th truth, our armies
under th compulsion of superior authority
ar strangling liberty In th Philippine
If any senator, - asked Mr. Turner, had
conceived at th time th treaty with Spain
wa pending that it would lead us lata u
with the Filipino, would that treaty hav
received a single vote.
Mr. Turner referred to the order of Gen
eral Jacob II. Smith, and said that it re
mained for the American soldier, the high
en type of civilisation, in a quarrel not
having ths sliigie element of religious
differences, prosecuted upon professedly
humanitarian grounds, to raise his name
to the helahth of bloody Infamy.
"Lust of dominion," said Mr. Turner,
"greed of conquest overruled the sober
Judgment of the American officials and
drove ua Into tbl war."
He etrongly urged the Philippine com
mittee to summon every witness who could
possibly throw any light on It.
The resolution of the house announcing
the death of Hon. Joshua S. Salmon of
New Jersey was then laid before the sen
ate and Messrs. Kean, Dryden, Burnham,
Beverldge, Heltfeld, Foster of Louisiana add
Bacon were appointed a committee to at
tend the funeral.
Aa an additional mark of respect the
senate then, al 6:40 p. in., adjourned.

The "Hold I p" Man, Coffee.
Few people know how many person are
mad sick and kept sick by coffee drinking.
A trained nurse relates her experience with
a number of different persons. She says:
"Quit a long time ago I discovered that
code was th cause of tba violent palpita
tion of my heart and frequent sick head
aches, and attacks of Indigestion, so I quit
coffee and went onto hot water, not know
ing then of Postum Food Coffee.
"Quite a while after I quit coffe my
husband began to complain of coffe coming
up in hi mouth mor or leas during th
forenoon, and it made It very disagreeable
for him. One day I said, 'Suppose w try
that Postum Food Coffe which I adver
tised so much.' So we did aand I prepared
it according to direction. Th beverage
proved delicious and w liked it so much
and It agreed with us so well w hav used
it for over two year now.
"My palpitation of th heart, headaches
and Indigestion have gone altogether. It
I very easy to make by boiling 16 or 20
minutes with a small piece of butter put
In the pot to prevent its boiling over.
"My cousin, who is a telegraph operator.
had nervous dyspepsia, having to stay from
work every few days. He gav up th use
ot coffe and commenced using Postum, and
sine that time h ha not been troubled
with dyspepsia.

nearly blew mv head away with a power

It did abKolutelv nothing In my case. I
threw everything away medicine, air

Pure Malt Whiskey. I fell better from the
start. I take one ounce with water be

and now, after using four bottlen. I can eat

ODEEN REMAINS VERY WEAR
Has a Quiet Night and Physicians Saj
Condition is Fairly Satisfactory.
THOSE NEAR QUEEN ARE NOT REASSURED
Bulletin Seem to Indicate that the
Physicians Themselves Are In
certain What Course the
Illness May Take.
THE HAGUE, May 6. Queen Wilhel
mlna's physicians, in their morning bulle
tin, issued at Castle Loo, say:
After a slight rise in her temperature
yesterday evening the queen had a quiet
night, and slept most of the time.
Her temperature this morning Is normal
and her condition at tho present moment is
fairly satisfactory, although the patient
still requires great care and attention.
Those who are in. attendance on the
queen are by no means fully reassured by
the medical bulletins which seem to indi
cate that the physicians themselves ar
uncertain as to the course which her illness
may take.
Her majesty remains extremely weak.
Two doctors were at her bedside almost all
night long.
Telegrams of Inquiry and sympathy con
tinue to arrive in large numbers at Castle
Loo.
A bulletin posted at Castle Loo at 2
p. m. today announced that Queen Wilhel
mlna'a temperature had "continued normal
up to the present," and said that her
majesty's "other symptoms do not call for
special remark."
BERLIN, May 5. The illness of Queen
Wllhelmlna is watched with especial In
terest In Germany, because both the heir
apparent and the heir presumptive to the
Dutch throne are Germans. Under the law
of succession in Holland, which was adopted
in 1884, the ruliag grand duke ot the grand
duchy of Saxe Weimar, William Ernest,
inherits the crown in the event of Queen
Wllhelmlna dying without issue. It Is re
garded a certain that he would renounce
it, however, preferring to remain the reign
ing grand duke of the grand duchy.
The next heir to the Dutch throne Is
Prince Henry XXXII of the younger branch
of the Reuss family. He is 24 years of
age and a lieutenant in the German navy.
