Colonel Scott; Colonel Thomas Holland,
colonisation secretary of New York, who
has been out of service for a year as the
result of Injuries sustained in the . wreck
In which Miss Emma Booth, sister of the
commander, lost her life; Colonel J. Adel
of St. Louis, In charge of the southwest
province.
Major J. G. Galley of Omaha, In charge
of the work of Nebraska and Iowa, and
his assistant. Captain Ernest F. Oman,
were the only ones at the train to wel
come the distinguished guests, this having
been arranged by request, as Miss Booth
has only recently recovered from an Ill
ness and la still physically unable to bear
any tax In addition to her speaking ap
pointments and the other necessarily heavy
duties of her office.
Miss Booth came to the United States last
December and this is tier first visit to
Omaha, although her second trip west, she
having been unable to stop before. The
present tour is being made to extend ber
acquaintance with her field with a view to
strengthening anJ extending the work of
the army. Her delicate health, however,
will not permit her to attend all of the
sessions of the council of Nebraska, Kan
sas, Iowa a ud South Dakota, in session
today, but she hopes to be present this
morning.
When seen at the hotel at noon Mis
Booth wore the scarlet Jacket and navy
blue skirt uniform. A scattering of papers
over her table Indicated that sue had al
ready U-gun work. Regarding her work
she said:
"My trip at this time is Just to get ac
quainted and suggest. Advancement .'s our
watchword, and that Is the secret of our
success."
Her face beamed when aha referred to
the new Salvation Army settlement In the
Cherry Hill neighborhood, New York.
"It la a wonderful work," she said. "Our
mission will cost fTO.OuO, and It will be head
quarters for the people of that moat
wi etched district. Our nursery will ac
commodate I'M babies, and we will have
departments for all the rest. 1
"The presa of thla country litis leen a
wonderful help to our work, and I have
been especially gratified at the conscien
tious way in which the reporters have pre
rented it. I often tell them that I believe
there Is a big. happy surprise in store for
them on te last great morning." e
When it waa suggested that everybody
did not share her good opinion of the press,
sliv said:
"Well, if 1 am anywhere around that
morning 1 will do all 1 ran to li.'lp you
through."
Regarding her family, she said: "Tis,
wa hsve all married 8aIvationlta. The
army expects that of Its officers; that by
their marriage they will be strengthened
rather than drawn out of the great battle.
"Yes, I am the only unmarried on of
my family, but, mind you. I do not make
any promises for th future. I hav seen
accounts of some of my romance In tha
papers. I liav had several, that Is a fact,
but thy have not all gotten Into print."
And th llttl woman smiled a roguish
little smile.

ST. LOCIS. Mo., Nov. 21. The introduc
tion of letters and telegrams exchanged

Harlan, an attorney for the Rialto tiraln
and Securities company, this afternoon was
the Important feature of the soind day
of the trial of United States Senator

United States circuit court on mi Indict
ment charging that he agreed to accept
and accepted compensation from the Rialto
company for' using his Influence, while a
member of the t'nlted States senate for the
benefit of the Rialto company In matters
pending before the Fostoffice department,
and In which the government was inter
ested. The effort to Introduce this evi
dence by the government brought frequent
objections from the counsel for the defense,
which In only one Instance were sustained
by Judge Vandevanter. The court ruled
that one telegram which was said by ths
government to be a reply to one ent to
Senator Burton by Harlan was not rele
vant. In no case did the defense question
the authenticity of the letters or telegrams,
baaing their objectiqns upon the ground
that the contracts were pertinent to the
allegations made tn the indictment.
Mr. Harlan, who at Senator Burton's
former trial was called as a witness by the,
defense, mas
placed, on the stand by the j
day and called upon to Iden-I

him to Senator Burton and originals of

ton. Letters In the Case.
The first letter submitted was daU'd No

ton and signed by Harlan. Following is

alto company) accepts your terms to art
an counH-i ai a salary 01 .ip a monin,

of this date, November IS. 1902.
In reply Senator Burton wrote Harlan
In part as follows:
I called at the department this morning
and find that there are two complaints
lodged against your company. One by
Bella fc,vans and the other by Mrs. K. C.
. iv. w. i
Hont. both of Albnnv. N. Y. Without :

same. I would advise that all complaints
receive special attention by your oniDanv.
No action of any kind will he taken

remittance for my first month's pay.
The following Is taken from a letter dated
December 2, 1902, sent to Senator Burton by

In reply to a letter from Hai l in stating
that an alleged postoffice Inspector had
tried to extract 'money from the Rialto
company by virtue of his official ixisltion.
Senator Burton' wrote the following:
There Is no man W the name of J. H.
Bowman who hi ' a 'powtofllce Inspector.
The man oper;ulag.in Colorado is also a
fraud. There has . gone from this office

Fainting Bertha will not talk of her
strange actions. She says she returned tu

' l'p tu two years ago" a woman writes,
"1 was In tne habit of using both tea and
coffee regularly.
"I found that my healtth was b- ginning
to fail, strange nervous attacks would
come suddenly upon me, making me trem
ble ho excessively that I could not do my

and 1 pao&ed long inputs In restless dis

as to the future. .
"A friend suggested that possibly tea
and coffee were to hlame, and I decided
to give them up, and in casting about for
a hot table U-verage, which I Celt waa
an absolute necessity, I waa led by good
furtune to try Poetura Food Coffee. For
more than a year I have usd It three

BAXTER'S SIDE0F THE CASE
District Attorney fCanlalna Details of
Hla f'onaeetlna with Prost
ration of iMmd Fencers.
District Attorney Baxter today declared
himself further on the Bartlclt Richards
case a follows:
"I notice a press dispatch from Washing
ton In this morning's Uee headed '8nre
Over Richaids Ca-e.' In said Item appears '
the following statement:. 'According to
an Item In the New York Sun, District At
torney Baxter some time ago advised the
Department of Justice to nolle prosequi
the case against Richards, but tha reply
was a rebuke from the attorney general.'
This statement is absolutely false, I never
at any time recommended or advised a
nolle prosequi to be entered In tha Bart
lett Richards case, nor even suggested
same to the attorney general, nor have I
ever received from the attorney general a
rebuke as to said matter.
"As to the further Item as follows: 'Sub
sequently the district attorney proponed a
compromise with the law breakers, but he
was Instructed to go ahead and prosecute
the case vigorously.' As to this I will say
that counsel for Richards and Comstock
made a proposition to at once remove all
of their fences, provided after such re
moval the indictments against them be
dismissed. I refused to entertain this prop
osition and referred the matter to the
attorney general for action, stating that
I saw no objection to auch course. He
declined the proposition and did Instruct
a vigorous prosecution.
"As to the statement in said article,
'Now the department officers understand
that the district attorney himself repre

moral turpitude' as to this I wish to state
that I made no such representation to the
court, and the court did not act In passing
sentence upon any representation whatever
made by me. The only statement In that con-
i nectlon which 1 made at all was that ths
I special agents hud Informed me that Ricli-
ards had removed some fences, but not all.
,. . ...... . ' , .
Th,t thlr counsel now stated that thty
would remove all their fences I would not

NEW YORK. Nov. 21-After an ex
haustive Interchange of views by the moct
distinguished divines representing thirty
seven denominations from all sections of
the country, the Inter-church conference on
federation, which has been In session for
the psst week, adjourned today. After
the adjournment the delegates to the con
ference were entertained tonight at a re
ception at the Waldorf-Astoria by the de
nominational eAclal unions and church clubs
of th city.
Rev. 8. Tarke Cadman. Rev. J. Ross
Stevenson, New Tork City, and Bishop K.
R. Hendrlx of Kansas City were among
the speakers today. Rlshop Hendrlx spoke
on "The Idenl State."
Some of the irsolutlons on social, re
ligious, political and business problems
which the business committee presented to
the convention were as follows:
Resolved. Thnt we urge upon law makers
the need of uniform divorce laws and that
these laws shall conform to a high stand
ard. That we believe that the manifold and
often distinguished forms of popular gam
bling now In vogue, especially belling n
elections and on college games, and tin
use of prizes In social guinea, should
prompt the church"9 to Inrrease warnings
and Instruction on the subject that all may
know that whenever It is determined by
chance, what or how much one gets for
his money, It Is a lottery, and also thnt the
essence of the sin of gambling consists In
trifling with the sai red trust of propel t,
and In getting something of value In a
business transaction without fair exchHngo.
Urging an Investigation of the Congo
river basin In Africa by an Impartial
tribunal and urging the I'nited States gov
ernment to further this International In
quiry. ,
Another resolution Inserted the words "to
the utmost limit righteously enforceable"
in a declaration favoring laws restricting
the liquor traffic. The word "graft" In an
other resolution provoked a long discussion.
It was finally decided that this word should
remain. This resolution was Introduced
yesterday and condemned the "widespread
commercialism which Jesus called covetous
nesa and condemned more severely than
any other vice."
t'nlvln's I) renin Henllseil.
Rev. Dr. Roberts, the permanent chair
man of the conference, delivered an ad
dress. He said:
This Is one of the most notable assem
blies of believers In Jesus Christ thnt tins
ver been seen. For four centuries federa
tion has been In the hearts of Christians.
John Calvin wrote to Cramer, arctihlstiop
of Canterbury, and declared he would cross
any sea to make sucn a union effective.
The dream of the great reformer and
the great archbishop tins met Willi realisa
tion in these latter days. It remained for
the twentieth century to give It realiza
tion. Here are thirty-seven denominations,
who represent by their affiliations the
whole of Europe and America and tnrough
their emissaries the whole of the world.
Three things I wish to say. Let it be
cleany understood mat we are not an
tagonistic to anynoay claiming me v nris
tlan name, rather let us cherish for them
the charity lllusttated In the life of our
Lord and Savior. Let it be clearly under
atood we are ready to co-operate with all
good men of all creeds and races for the
moral uplifting of mankind, both at home
and abroad.
Bishop Jofin H.' Vincent, the founder of
the Chautauqua movement, made the clos
ing address. In which ho declared . there
was room- In the federation for everybody'
individual, beliefs' and that the most seri
ous reverses of the church today are caused
by pastors' failures to visit, educate and
train Individuals.

Mrs. PlnLham'a Standing Invitation
Women Buffering- from any form of
female weaknessare iuvited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. I'inkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
ouly. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has todraw from,
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. - She asks nothing in
return except your pood-will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, ricli or poor, iavery foolish
if she docs not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are ill. don't hesitate to get a
hottlaof Lydia E. I'inkham's Vegetable

When a medicine ha rxen succesful
