FRIENDSHIP FOR AMERICANS People Disposed to Receive Yon Kindly Ev erywhere Dispatches to Etgllsu Pipen Exaiterated -Cur Not In Dtnier. NEW YOKK, June 1. A dispatch to the Herald from London gays: General B. O. Williams, who has been stopping at the Hotel Cecil, emphatically denies the report that have been circu lated to the effect that Kussia Is on the venre of revolution. In an Interview he say: "To Judge by the reports la the Eng lish papers one would Imagine that Rus sia wa a hot bed of sedition, Just quiv ering on the brink of revolution. Now I have visited that country periodically for many years and have had an oppor tunity to see perhaps more than the av erage visitor could see and to study the conditions of the country In a way that one can only do by Intimate acquaint ance. The country is as peaceable as ny In the world. "People go about their business as freely as In England or In America and appear to be Just as little In awe of the authorities. Furthermore, as regards foreigners or I should say Americans, there seems to b only the friendliest feeling. Tou are everywhere received kindly. There Is an evident disposition to do business with you on straightfor ward business lines. With regard to some stories sent over the wire to the English papers, then? are two which I can contradict from my own personal observation. The story about unusual police precaution at the review was a mvth. Dure and simple. I was at the re view wl:h my wire and came within 150 feet of the spot where the Ctar was standing. "Bevond the ordinary guard of honor there was absolutely no appearance of Drecaution to safeguard the Emperor's person. Certainly there was nothing like wholesale exclusion of the Public. The ctar moved around quite fre4y and did not appear to have the least distrust of any one who came near him. I have seen other royalties at similar functions, and certainly the ciar did not appear any more in danger or in fear than they did. "Another instance of gross exaggera tion was the Incident of the students at the cathedral when, according to the re ports in London, a small siztfd revolu tion was the result. Now, I happened to be sitting In the balcony .f th.- Ne vsky Prosoect hotel at the time and wit nessed the whole incident. There was a handful of students who were cXoMM from the cathedral because they .could insist on fmokin in the church. Th, y Wtre excelled with as little fuss as so many younj? fellows would who tried m Jirroke inside St. Paul's. There was nut the slightest disturbance. Yet ;ha: trifling thing evidently was iiiusaffi-j as an event which most threaten -d :h Hussin thri.ie. R was al :-r in a few niinut: s." i "ANA DA'S TP ril A LI.ECE it.

POISON OAK, POISON IVY, Poisoned by BARHER' ITfU un(ier the skin are innumerable hair-like blood vessels, and conm-ctini tl,e with the filcin LEAD and BRASS POISONING, ETC. open, we are much more liable to be affected by Poison Oak and Ivy and other dangerous plants. Workers in brass, copper, lead and zinc have their health im paired and the blood supply poisoned through the absorption of fine particles of these metals and the acids used in polishing and cleaning them. Inhaling the fumes of lead give painters that pallid, waxy appearance of the skin. Barber's Itch is another disease that reaches the blood through the skin, and is a most obstinate one when it becomes firmly fixed in the system. After the poison has reached the blood and been disseminated throughout the system it is too late to resort to local applications. In many cases the blood is affected simultaneously with the appear ance of the rash or eruption on the skin, and all efforts should be directed to the purification and building up of the blood. Ugly eruptions and sores will continue to break out in spite of salves, washes, soaps or other external treatment. S. S. S. is especially recommended for poisons of this character. So com pletely does it destroy the effects of the Oak and Ivy that there is no possibility of its reappearance, and it is equally as efficacious in brass or lead poisoning or Bar ber's Itch ; building up and purifying the blood and driving out of the circulation impurities of every kind, and removing every blemish, sore or eruption from the akin. There is no substitute for S. S. S. ; it is the only purely vegetable blood piuifier known, and the 6afest and best in all constitutional or blood diseases. Our Medical Consultation Department.

OIAXTS AGAIN AT WAR. Sugar Trust and Arbuckles Cut Coffee Prices. N'Ew YORK. June l.-The Journal of Commerce says: The Wilson Spice Company, which is the coffee end of the American Sugar Refining Company, has Issued a circu lar granting grocers an extra allowance of half a cent a pound on all purchases of Lion brand coffees between May 2S and July 1. It Is supposed that this ex tra allowance has something to do with the Arbuckle circular Issued last Julv In which it was decided to allow an extra allowance of half a cent a Pound on all Increased orders for Ariosa coffee over the amount taken the previous season. It Is understood the Woolson people believe the Arbuckles have been alowlng the extra rebate Increase or no Increase. It is uderstood that the Arbuckles will Immediately follow the Woolson circular with one of similar purport, but they have taken their most direct action In the form of a reduction of 15 points In their sugar rrlces. The National Com pany immediately followed with a Sim- liar cut restored prices within a few minutes. Interesting developments tre expected within the next few days. Rea-arling the situation the Tribune says: Arbuckle Bros, fcave made a 13 point reduction in refined sugar, bringing the price down to 5.40 cents a pound. The report that the Woolson Spice Company had reduced the price of its package coffee a half cnt a pound was officially denied. The Woolson pple and the Arbuckles recently agreed upon a uni form rate anl both companies are still quoting their products at ten cents a pound net WILL CONFER IX LOXDOX. XEW TOP.K.

Most of the deleg.it s who voted for acceptance stiy that the .ml'Jtvt is con cluded an I the vily thing left for the convention now- is to frame an electoral law or else to V dissolved by military authority and the statu quo rentiiii un changed. They do not :n,V;p.i;e the latter alternative. Some of them ctit icixe the reports that the convention was not expected to !ncor;vrate the subMatuv of the interviews with Sec retary Boot and say this criticism should have been formulated earlier since uch a punose has been manifest ed by the convention since the return from Washington. Gualberto Comcx and other Radicals raised the sume point that sevms to have been raise 1 by Vnited State senators. This was thai while the present national adnilnls. ra tlin might feel bound by the terms of the interview, as embodied In the ap pendix, fuiutv administrations or con gresses would not be bound. The reply of the Conservatives was that accept ance was only a mems of preparing the wav for the negotiation of a treaty with the United States w hlch would en sure defining the relations of Cuba on a permanent basis. This argument se cured the majority. The prospective withdrawal of the American troops 's not looked on here is likely to become a serious question. Radical Cubans are quite temperate on that subject. The prevailing opinion Is that the presence f the troops will not be questioned unti .he final steps in the formation of a Cuban government are completed. TheConservative political elementsan J commercial InfluMces, which were pre Daring to participite in the formation of a government, deprecate the bad effects of a hitch now. but. while un easy at the prospec', th'y have full con fidence In the Washington authorities and are not alarmel ThJ municipal campaign has cl,(sed and today the mayors and aldermen will be elected throughout the island.
