LONDON, June 27. "It's the best yet,"
was the popular comment with -which the
bulletin posted at Buckingham Palace at
U o'clock tonight -was greeted. A small
crowd waited before the palace until the
bulletin -wis brought out, and when the
good news became known, there were
cries of "Hear, hear," and cheers. Lord
Churchill, the acting Chamberlain, drove
up to the palace just as the bulletin was
Issued, and expressed his keen pleasure
at the doctors' report of the King's con
dition. After learning the contents of the
bulletin, the crowd at the pilace quickly
diSDersod. and the rejoicing, which was
apparent In the crowded streets, increased
in keeping with the terms of the latest
report.
The Prince and Princess of "Wales dined
at Buckingham Palace tonight, in com
pany with visiting royalties. All the din
ers returned early to their homes.
The unanimity among prominent physi
cians In expressing their opinions as to
the case of the King Is quite remark
able. All the professional opinions gath
ered are distinctly favorable and hopefuL
The doctors regard the danger of peri
tonitis as now almost passed and believe
His Majesty's recover' to be entirely
probable.
Liverpool was illuminated tonight In
recognition of the good news.
Relaxation of the tension and anxiety
concerning the King Is everywhere no
ticeable. The Cunard Line steamer Cam
pania, which left New York June 21. and
which arrived at Queenstown today, re
ports that the news of King Edward's ill
ness, which was transmitted to her by
the Marconi system of wireless telegraphy
from the Cunard liner Saxonla, Thurs
day evening, had such a gloomy effect on
the passengers that the concert, which
was In progress when the news was re
ceived, was abandoned. The satisfactory
news received at Queenstown this even
ing, however, caused the greatest satisfac
tion. The people arc taking the greatest
pride In the King's fortitude. It has been
learned that His Majesty facilitated the
preparations for the operation and when
the surgeons were ready, he stretched
himself upon the operating table, declin
ing assistance.
Lord Warwick, in proposing a vote of
sympathy for the King "before the War
wick Town Council today, said that he
was authoritatively Informed that His
Majesty's first words after the operation
were: "Will my people ever forgive me?"
King Edward's calmness, cheerfulness
and pluck are considered most favorable
auguries for a speedy recovery, and the
messages from Queen Alexandra and Sir
Francis Knollys, the King's private secre
tary, in reply to expressions of solicitude
and the statements of persons most fa
miliar with the situation, all bear out the
confident hopefulness which prevails to
day. The Day's Bulletins.
LONDON, June 27. A bulletin, issued
from Buckingham Palace at 10:15 o'clock
this morning1 says:
"His Majesty had a fair night and has
had some natural sleep. His appetite is
Improving and his wound is much more
comfortable. On the whole, the King's
condition is attended with less anxiety.
"LISTER, TREVES, SMITH, LAKING,
BARLOW."
It is said after the issue of this morn
ing's bulletin Lord Marcus Beresford
asked Lord Lister how the King was pro
gressing, and that Lord Lister replied:
"His Majesty is practically out of dan
ger." .
The following bulletin was posted at
Buckingham Palace at 2 P. M.:
"His Majesty passed -a comfortable
morning. AH his symptoms today are so
far satisfactory. His temperature is nor
mal. No other than important fluctua
tions in His Majesty's temperature will
be recorded In the bulletins Issued.
"TREVES, LAKING, BARLOW."
The following bulletin was posted at the
palace at 6:15 P. M.:
"The King has maintained the satis
factory condition described In the last
bulletin. His Majesty shows no disquiet
Ins svmDtoms.
"LISTER, TREVES, SMITH, LAKING, 'j
BARLOW."
LONDON WAS DESERTED.
On tbe Day When the Greatest Crash
Was Expected.
LONDON, June 27. What was to have
gone down to history as procession day,
when it was expected there would be the
greatest crush ever witnessed In the
streets of London, finds the city practical
ly deserted. The bank holiday proclaimed
for today paralyzed business. The mass
es, apparently surfeited with their event
less wanderings In the streets yesterday,
either cleared out to the cDuntry, tempted
by the perfect -weather, or else stayed
at .home. Certainly the main thorough
fares could not have been more deserted
on any Sunday In the year.
The big hotels, .however, were each an
oasis of activity amid the otherwise gen
eral stagnation. Many Americans are
preparing to start for the Continent, and
others have already gone there or to the
country, while numbers took advantage of
the fine day to visit the great fleet as
Eembled off Splthead. Sir Thomas Up
ton is entertaining a distinguished party
on board his steam yacht Erin.
The fashionable cafes and restaurants
were the scenes of numerous smart lunch
eons, while extensive but quiet prepara
tions were made for week's-end house par
ties at the surrounding country places,
whose owners seem to think that the sit
uation warrants at least some subdued
gaiety in honor of the many prominent
visitors.
A party of 1100 orphans from the vari
ous institutions were entertained by the
Prince and Princess of Wales today at a
dinner given in the grounds of Marlbor
ough House. The Prince and Princess
again visited their little guests.
Throughout the afternoon only small
crowds gathered about Buckingham Pal
ace. The 2 o'clock bulletin created the
greatest satisfaction.
Subsequently a member of the Govern
ment said to a representative of the As
sociated Press:
"Really, everything Is going on won
derfully well and we all now think the
King will recover, though, of course, we
are afraid of being premature or unusu
ally optimistic The King is proving him
self a gallant chap.
"A good deal of 111 feeing and misdi
rected criticism seems to have been
caused by tho omission of the tempera
ture from the bulletins. I understood the
doctors avoided mention of it for the pur
pose of preventing what they believed
would be an avalanche of faulty deduc
tions from the press and alleged experts.
It is only natural that the King's tem
perature slightly rises at night, and It Is
expected to do so for some time. Wednes
day evening, when perhaps the King
might have been expected to have been
at his most critical period, his tempera
ture was normal, yet the doctors pur
posely refrained from mentioning it."
The latest bulletins created the most
favorable impression in Parliamentary cir
cles. Many of the medical experts now
believe that all danger of any septic pro
cess has passed and that so far as can be
seen the crisis may be regarded as at an
end. The operating table, bandages and
other appliances connected with surgi
cal operations were removed from the
palace this afternoon.
At the adjournment of the House of
Commons at 5:30 P. M. today, A. J. Bal
four, the Government leader, announced
that the progress of the King was quite
satisfactory.
From an authoritative source, the As
sociated Press learns that the King reads
and converses continually with the Queen
and the Prince and Princess of Wales.
All that the doctors Insist is that he shall
not discuss matters requiring careful
weighing.
The Government officials -expect pos
sibly within a week to fix the approxi
mate date of the coronation, which will
probably occur early in the Autumn.
An authoritative statement contained
in dispatches to the Associated Press
that the check In King Edward's progress
toward recovery, which was recorded In
the last official bulletin of yesterday even
ing, was merely temporary In Its char
acter, receives gratifying confirmation in
this morning's announcement by the at
tending physicians.
The announcement of a more comfort
able state of the King's wound and his
having secured natural sleep Is followed
by an Indication of Increasing assurance
in the minds of those responsible for the
official report. As the time approaches
for the posting of the morning bulletin
tho crowd about the Palace of the King
increased appreciably. When the better
tenor of the news contained by the slip
of paper attached to the baize-covered
board became known, something like a
cheer broke forth from the assembled
people.
Prince Henry of Prussia and other for
eign representatives were among the
earlier Inquiries at Buckingham Palace.
The Prince of Wales and the Duke of
Connaught called early. Lord Lister and
his colleagues were In consultation for a
quarter of an hour prior to issuing the
bulletin posted at 10:15.
Electric fans are being utilized to keep
the IClng's apartment at a suitable tem
perature, the heat in London at present
being oppressive.
The American special Ambassador,
Whltelaw Reld, and Mrs. Reld called by
appointment on the Prince and Princess
of Wales this afternoon, to take official
leave of their Royal Highnesses. Mr.
Reld will now close up the special em
bassy and go to Portsmouth to visit Rear
Admiral Crownlnshleld. Commander-in-Chief
of the European station, on the
United States flagship Illinois. Rear
Admlral John C. Watson, who was to
have represented the United States Navy
at the coronation, went to Paris yester
day, and General J. H. Wilson, the rep
resentative of the United States Army
In the special embassy. Is to follow him.
Colonel John Blddle, General Wilson's
aid will return to America.
The presence of the Princess of Wales,
and the inclusion df Mrs. Reld In the
audience today, was simply a continua
tion of that specially friendly attitude
which the British royal family and gov
ernment have throughout shown towards
the American mission. King Edward has
expressed himself as greatly pleased with
the receipt of President Roosevelt's mes
sage of greeting, and the members of the
government have missed no opportunity
throughout the mission's visit of indicat
ing its appreciation of the friendly feel
ing shown by them.
Prince Henry of Prussia leaves London
tomorrow for Germany. When Prince
Henry was leaving Buckingham Palace,
after his visit this afternoon, the marked
warmth of the cheering of the people evi
dently pleased him greatly.
Coming- Colonial Conference.
NEW YORK. June 27. The Colonial
Premiers and Ministers, while sorely dis
appointed over the postponement of the
coronation, are consoling themselves, ca
bles the London correspondent of the
Tribune, and receiving cues from Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain respecting the Im
perial conference next week. There Is
reason to believe that the conference will
gain advantageous importance from Abe
collapse of the general festivities, since
public attention will be centered upon It,
Premiers Laurier, Barton and Seddon will
be chief figures, but there are 6trong men
behind them. There Is a hopeful feeling
among the Canadian Ministers and the
Premiers that with the help of Mr. Cham
berlain something may be done In the di
rection of preferential trade.
Astute men like Premier Ross, from To
ronto, and Ministers Fielding, Mullock
and Patterson do not wish to commit
themselves prematurely to any statement
of policy, but they are convinced that the
self-governing colonies have In Mr. Cham
berlain a resourceful leader who com
mands support.
How Morgan Heard the News.
NEW YORK, June 27. A story Is going
the rounds of how Plerpont Morgan first
heard of the postponement of the corona
tion and its cause, cables the London cor
respondent of the Herald. The capitalist
was traveling at the time on the under
ground railway, seated In one corner of a
flrst-clas3 carriage, while a stranger 6it
opposite. Nobody else was in the com
partment. Not disclosing the fact that he
had Identified the American, the other
handed him a sheet of paper upon which
the single word "perityphlitis" was writ
ten, quietly Intimating at the time that
the King had contracted the disease and
that the coronation preparations had been
suspended. Mr. Morgan said not a word
until two stations had been passed, then
merely handing the paper back he laconi
cally muttered. "You don't Bay so."
Reld Announces Ills Departure.
WASHINGTON. June 27. Assistant Sec
retary of State Hill received the follow
ing cablegram today from "Whltelaw Reld,
head of the special embassy of the United
States to the coronation:
"LONDON, June 27. Took leave of Lord
Lansdowne today, and, after taking for
mal leave of Prince of Wales; shall close
embassy, unless otherwise Instructed, and
quit London to pay promised visit to Ad
miral Crownlnshleld. Lord Lansdowne
expresses -warm appreciation of Presi
dent's speech at Harvard, and general
American sympathy shown in this time
of trouble. The feeling about the King
today is distinctly hopeful."
The State Department will send Mr.
Reld no Instructions In this matter, so
he -will proceed as Indicated.
They Celebrated the Coronation.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 27. The passen

the serious illness of King Edward, cele
brated his coronation on board the steam

fired from the eteamers signal gun, and

HE TOOK ALL IN SIGHT
DEWEY'S CHARACTERIZATION
AGTJINALDO.
OF
Went to Manila for Loot, Not to Sc-
cure
Independence for
His People.
WASHINGTON. June 27. Admiral
Dewey continued his testimony before the
Senate commltee on the Philippines today.
Replying to questions put by Senator Pat
terson, he said that ho had begun nego
tiations with the Governor-General of the
Philippines, General Jaudens, for the sur
render of the city, and the negotiations
were conducted through the Belgian Con
sul, who, after the death of the British
Consul, had been vers' courteous In act
ing as a go-between. It was a diplomatic
negotiation, no letters being written.
The Admiral said he had Informed Gen
eral Merrltt of the proffer of General
Jaudens, but he did not believe that Mer
rltt had taken "much stock1' in it.
"I assured him that such was the case,"
said the Admiral, "but told him of the
arrangement that before the surrender
should take place I was to engage an out
lying fort and make the signal, according
to the International code, Do you sur
render?' after which the Spaniards were
to hoist the white flag on the southern
bastion. I may say that I was the first
to discover the flag, notwithstanding I had
stationed 50 men to look out for it. It was
a thick day. and I chanced to be the fir3t
to discover It."
He also said he had read the testimony
of General MacArtJhur saying that he knew
of no agreement of the kind mentioned,
but that It had not. been his (Dewey's)
business to communicate with any one ex
cept the commanding official.
Asked by Patterson to explain his state
ment that General Merrltt had not ac
cepted the report that' the Spaniards had
agreed to capitulate. Admiral Dewey said
that was only his belief.
"I don't believe," he said, "that the
General entirely trusted the Spaniards.
Still, he did not say so in so many words.
I may add that I have since learned that
some of the Spanish officers were tempted
to Are at us. Even my own flag lieutenant
did not accept their proffer as in the
best of faith. I knew, however, that they
would surrender. for I understood the
straits they were In."
Replying to a question as to whether
the agreement to surrender had been made
public at the time of the attack upon
Manila. Admiral Dewey said he thought
not. "There are," he said, "lots of things
which are not communicated to the pub
Patterson sought to secure from Admiral
Dewey an admission that Agulnaldo had
issued a proclamation of Independence to
the Filipinos about tho time of the sinking
of the Spanish squadron, but the Admiral
said" he did not remember it, although It
was possible that he might have done so.
Patterson then read the paper forwarded
K
y Consul-General Pratt, May 20, 1B9S,
which the Filipino leader said that
Providence had opened the way for inde
pendence to the Filipinos, and spoke of the
Americans ao their liberators. The Ad
miral said, however, that he did not re
member to have seen the paper. He had,
he said, given Agulnaldo a printing press
and probably he used this press for get
ting out his proclamation.
In reply to a question, the Admiral said
that Consul Williams, who bad been sta
tioned at Manila, was an honest man,
although, perhaps, quite enthusiastic. The
Admiral did not, however, remember to
have promised to Agulnaldo his "cordial
co-operation," as the Consul had reported.
For the purpose of making Inquiry con
cerning some of the representations- of
Consul-General Wildman, located at Hong
Kong, Patterson asked concerning that
gentleman's character. The Admiral ap
parently hesitated to reply, but then said:
"He's dead I'd rather not say. He was
the United States Consul-GeneraL" He
added that he would prefer not to reply
to further questions, but when Patterson
persisted, he added: "He was a very able
man an able Consul."
Patterson then read Mr. Wlldman's let
ter of July 18. 1S9S. saying that Agulnaldo
had conducted himself In a dignified man
ner, etc. and the Admiral assented to the
truth pf this statement. Speaking of
Agulnaldo's loyalty the Admiral said ho
had become suspicious of -that leader be
fore the receipt of his proclamation on
July 15. He said:
"I began to suspect that he was not
loyal to us when he demurred to moving
out of Cavlte when our troops arrived."
"You mean that they were thinking
more of their own Independence than of
us?"
"Yes."
Arnlral Dewey also testified concerning
the arms sent to Manila by Agulnaldo, and
Senator Dietrich asked the Admiral If "he
did not believe that the arms were pur
chased with money previously paid by
Spain to secure peace, and that It was
his Intention to use the money to foment
another Insurrection for the purpose of
gain."
The Admiral's reply was, "Exactly bo."
Patterson next called attention to a
number of proclamations forwarded by
him to Washington in May, but Admiral
Dewey said he did not remember having
read them, and in explanation of his fail
ure In this respect, he said:
"The days and nights were not long
enough for me to get through with my
work at that time. Evidently I did not
consider the proclamations as of Impor
tance, and if I did read them I made no
cctnment on them."
The Teadlng of these dispatches was fol
lowed by a number of questions.
"Knowing Agulnaldo's expectations and
purpose to secure Independence," said Pat
terson, In beginning a question, but be
fore he had concluded he was Interrupted
by the witness, who said:
"No, I did not know that."
"Then you believed such to be his pur
pose?" "I did not believe It, and since you
have asked my opinion I will say that I
believe he was there for gain for loot
for money, and I further believe that inde
pendence never entered his head."
Replying to another question by Senator
Patterson, the Admiral sold that while
Agulnaldo was located at Cavlte and was
under his observation, he was always hu
mane, but that he did not see much of
him after the army came.
Senator Carmack then put a number of
questions to the witness. Replying to
these, the Admiral said It was true he
had assisted Agulnaldo in organizing his
army by supplying him with arms, etc;
that at that time there were no Amer
ican soldiers in the Philippines, and that
Agulnaldo had complete control of his own
forces and that he was under no re
straint. Having laid the foundation by securing
these statements, which were In reitera
tion of what the Admiral had said In his
testimony yesterday, Mr. Carmack asked
the witness why he had done so much to
aid a man whom he regarded as a "com
mon robber and plunderer.'.'
The Admiral did not reply Immediately.
His face reddened and he laughed. He
then said the Senator had not v quoted
him accurately but admitted that ho
had said Agulnaldo had gone to Manila
for pillage and plunder. He added:
"You know the old saying that 'all is
fair In war.' "
"Do you consider it fair in war to as
sist a known plunderer and robber In
an enemy's territory to pillage without
restraint?"
"I believe it is, as I read history."
"Then you admit that you assisted this
robber and plunderer to organise, etc?"
"I did not then call him a robber and
plunderer. I called him 'the Insurgent
leader.' I have said here that he was
there for money and loot. I think those
were my words, and I think that is what
he was there for. Do you," he asked,
turning Interlocutor himself, "do you
think he, was there for anything else?"
"I do." replied the Senator.
j "Wen, I don't," said the Aimiral, ana
A NEW DISCOVERY
MADE BY X MAN IN ALLEGHENY,
PENNSYLVANIA
George C. Eldridgc Finds Something
"Which 3Iany Consider to Be Better
Than Gold His Statement.
There- is much talk In the town of
Allegheny, Pa., over the discovery made
by Mr. George O. Eldrldge, of that
place. After a long search he has found
something better than gold. In a re
cent Interview he says: "
"Yes, I have mad? what I consider to
be an Important discovery To tell you
about I must start at the beginning.
"That was a number of years ago,"
he continued. "The nature of my work
forced me to be very Irregular with
my meals, and that, together with a
general misuse of my stomach, brought
on nervous dyspepsia. My trouble com
menced with bloating constipation, and
this was accompanied with pain In the
back and stomach. I suffered with
shortness of breath and palpitation of
the heart, sleeplessness and an abso
lutely miserable feeling at all times.
About three years ago I had an attack
which confined me to my bed for three
weeks, and times -without number after
that I was obliged to give up. My kid
neys also became affected, and caused
me considerable trouble.
"Four different doctors attempted to
cure me. but they trove me only tem
porary relief. I became utterly discour
aged. Then I tried Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. Relief came In
about a week, and at the end of four
months I was entirely well.
"I can only say that I believe I owe
my life to Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and
can find no words to express my thanks
for what they have done for me. Bet
ter than sold Is. but mild praise for
them. Everybody who knows me re
marks the wonderful change. I can eat
anything now, slee'p like a child, and do
my work with ease. I do not need med
icine any more, although I always keep
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
on hand."
Mr. Eldrldge lives at No. 235 Carroll
street, and is but one of thousands who
always speak of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills in the highest terms of praise.
They know what this remedy will do,
for they have used it It acts directly
on the blood and nerves.
At all druggists, ot direct from Dr.
Williams Medicine Company, Schenec
tady, N. Y., fifty cents per box; six
boxes for two dollars and fifty cents.
as if to express h'ls opinion still more
emphatically he repeated: "I don't," and
then added: "I swear I don't."
"Do you think you know Agulnaldo bet
ter than General Otis?" asked Senator
Carmack.
"In some things I think I do," the Ad
miral replied. "I think my Judgment Is
better In some matters than the Gen
eral's. I don't believe he ever saw Agul
naldo, and I saw him 50 times. More
over. I know hl3 history."
"Do you think you know him better
than General Bell?"
"I think I know him better than any
of our officers."
"Did Agulnaldo tell you that he was
there for money and loot?"
"1 saw' In his action that he was. He
had not been there 43 hours . before he
was taking everything in sight provi
sions, munitions, etc." . . r
"From the Spaniards?," .
"From everybody."
"For himself?"
"I expect he got the lion's share." .
"If General Otis and General Bell should
say they regarded Agulnaldo as personal
ly honest in money matters would their
statement Influence your opinion in re
gard to him?"
"Not in the slightest degree."
"You don't know of a single dishonest
acf on the part of the man you regard
as a thief?"
Just before this question was asked
Senator Lodge, as chairman of the com
mittee, bad announced that 2 o'clock, the
hour for adjournment had arrived. The
Admiral took advantage of this announce
ment to cut short a line of Inquiry that
was plainly annoying him. He rose as
the last question was being propounded
and when it was concluded said:
"I think I shan't answer that question."-
He then took his hat and left the room
with a polite word of adieu, but without,
being finally dismissed. The examination
of the Admiral will be concluded tomor
row. More Soft Conl Mined.

Intercut and Dividend Payments.
NEW YORlC. June 27. A compilation
of Interest and dividend, payments made
In June, published by the Journal of Com
merce, shows that the total disbursements
this season will run In exce?3 of 5123,000,-
000. This la considerably ahead of last

curities show an increase over the same
period last year of $2,137,000. while Indus
trial dividends show a shrinkage of $4,619,
000. The'latter Is attributed largely to the

LONDON, June 23. The Daily Mall says
this morning that all King Edward's
functions are working admirably. The
drainage pipe has not yet been removed,
but the King's progress Is sure and
steady. His diet already Includes coup,
fish, and baked apples. It is probable that
next week the number of dally bulletins
will be diminished. "It has been infor
mally settled," says the paper, "that as
soon as It Is safe to do so. His Majesty
will be moved to Cowes and placed on
board the royal yacht for his period of
convalescence."
The King of Denmark, who intended
coming to London today, has been dis
suaded from doing so by Queen Alexandra,
who telegraphed her father.that King Ed
ward is making good progress.
The prospect for the King's rapid re
covery has led to a revival of the projects
for festivities. It has practically been de
cided that the Indian and colonial troops
here shall be reviewed next Tuesday or
"Wednesday by the Prince and Princess of
Wales on the horse guards parade. Queen
Alexandra attending to take the salute on
behalf of the King, aa she did recently at
Aldershot. This Idea was warmly advo
cated by the Colonial Premiers In London,
and It has been approved by Joseph
Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary.
It Is also likely that as soon as His
Majesty fa pronounced to be out ot dan
ger, London will indulge In a general Illu
mination. Very fev of the illumination
devices have been disturbed, their own
ers awaiting the decision of the Princess
of Wales in the matter. Tho Prince has
not yet ordered the removal of the de
vices from Marlborough House.
It is now possible that the abandonment
of the naval review" set for June 2S will
be reconsidered In the interests of-theco-lonial
and Indian visitors, who are greatly
disappointed at missing the sight. The
other entertainments for the national
colonial and Indian guests are also being
arranged. Thus, if there is no setback in
His Majesty's progress, there will be a.
partial revival of the Interrupted 'festivi
ties. The Times says this morning: "The
King remains recumbent, he takes with
comfort the nourishment appropriate to
his condition, and keeps bright and cheer
ful in spite of the Irksomeness of his en-
forced inactivity. Some of his medical
advlsers are always In attendance. There
is happily good reason for hoping that
His Majesty will make a complete and
speedy recovery." In an editorial article
the Times euggests utilizing the return of
Lord Kitchener to England, about July 12,
as a suitable occasion to organize some
kind of ceremonial. In which Queen Alex
andra, and the Prince and Princess of
Wales" might participate, to express the
national feeling of thankfulness over the
King's recovery.

The microscopic crcatuVes In parts of

abundant food for the whale and other

teeming with food exactly suited to their
