PORTLAND, Me-, Nov. l, 1890.

PORTLAND, Me-, Nov. l, 1890.
Messrs.-For some six years have been afflicted
with spells of numbness, seizing me in my limbs,
and at times affecting my power of articulation so
1 could not speak. This would be followed
by hOt-hushes, leaving me very weak and
nervous.
Neuralgia also claimed me for it's victim, and
beset me for toeeks at time toith its naddening
pain. / grew very irritable. MY BRAIN FELT
TIRED. Spells of despOndency became more
frequent, and it seemed to me sometimes that
REASON WOULD BE DETHRONED.
Last March your advertising team passed our
house, and as boy came running up the steps, 1
met him at the door, and took the paper he handed
me. In the quiet of my chamber, i read it through
and through lsent boy to II H Ricker's for bot.
tie of DANA'S SARSAPARILLA. It helped me
from the first lam now taking my seventh bottle,
and have not had NUMB SPELL FOR OVER THREE
MONTHS. MY LAST ATTACK OF NEURALGIA WAS
OVER FOUR MONTHS AGO. My nerves feel strong,
and am WELL, or at least very 1t. i have
good appetite, and have gained nineteen and
one-haf pounds in weight. / never expected to
feel as do now. Ny gratitude is unbounded. l
hope that all afflicted as was will try the reno
waiting powers of DANA'S sARSAPARILLA.

toms Resignation Not Yet Accepted. r
WASHINGTON, March 23-The pro-
posed proclamation for the protection Of
seals in Behring Sea is expected to DO
promulgated within few days.
The President, in issuing it, simply
complies with the statute enacted by the
Goth Congress, which requires him to do
this once a year, just before the approach
of the fishing season. 1t is limited that
the coming pronunciamento will be even
more vigorous than that of $780,
The proposal to dispatch at least two
war vessels to Alaskan waters means that
the President intends that the pirates
shall be punished if they resume the
depredations of former years.
The Sayward libel case comes before
the United States Supreme Court early
next month. The President will find no
necessity, therefore, for defining the geo.
graphical limits within which marauders
may be seized. That question remains
for the court to determine. Whether it's
decision will be accepted by the Salisbury
government as final remains for the fu-
ture to develop.

Secretary ProctOr's Friends Say He Has
No Intention of Resigning.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-No confirma-
ton of the report that Secretary Proctor
contemplates resigning his office can be
obtained in Washington.
Those who would be apt to know if the
Secretary had any such intention are of
the opinion that there is no foundation
for the report A gentleman who trav-
eled South with the Secretary last week
says that Mr.. Proctor then spoke enthusi-
astically of War Department work that
he had laid out to do during the next two
years, and that, judging from that con-
versation. he thinks the Secretary could
not possibly be contemplating a resigna-
ton.
Mr.. Proctor's present tour is far from
being "junket." This tour. will extend
over a month, and is planned to produce
results bearing on the course of affairs in
military circles for the coming two years.
Then, too, he has just brought from the
West ap officer whom he intends to make
his military aide. He would hardly do
this, it is argued, were he soon to resign.
Assistant Secretary Grant said that the
rumor is without foundation.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March Radioactive
O'Malley of New Orleans, whose presence
in this city was only learned by chance,
does not appear to be at all worried over
the state of affairs in the Crescent city
nor for his own personal safety.
He is accompanied by his wife and
child. He is registered under an assumed
name. To d reporter he said at minight:
81 was present at the Clay Statue
meeting and hid in New Orleans for two
days after the lynching. went first to
Houston, Tex, and then to Corsicana.
Then turning about came northward to
Brinkly, Ark, and from that place to
Memphis. 1t is my intention to return to
New Orleans next Wednesday or Thurs

of the Matrange faction of the Malta for
six years, and in my capacity as detective

O'Malley declined to say anything in
connection with the bribing of the jury,
except that he thinks they were bribed
He said, in conclusion, that six of the
Italians killed were guilty of completely

Important Evidence.
NEW ORLEANS, March 23.-The prom
ised expose of the Malta plot, which ended
in the assassination of Chief of Police Hem
messy by Sunzeri and Natal, two of the
Italian prisoners now in Jail, has caused
a great deal of excitement in the Italian
quarters.
Last evening secret meeting was held
in an old building near Congo square,
which was attended by 100 Italians, who
discussed the report for nearly an hour.
The police have information that the sub
ject of the recent lynching was taken up
and certain phases of it debated, but they
have not been able to learn whether or
not any threats were made.
1t is claimed that both Sunzeri and Ma
tall have already told the most of their
story to Attorney General Rogers and to
members of the committee of safety, and
that they have consented to repeat it to
the grand jury whenever that body gets
ready to hear them.

either a great deal of satisfaction or a
great deal of news.

DAMAGE AT LONG BRANCH.
Gaps Torn In the Blur by Angry Seas and
Property Destroyed. =

LONG BRANCH, N. j., March 23.-The
destructive storm along the Jersey coast,
which set in with a bowling gale from
the northeast Friday, steadily increased
in velocity last night, and the indications
are that it will eclipse the damaging storm
of September three years ago. Last night
the wind was blowing a gale from the
northeast and the rain fell in torrents all
day.
Saturday and Sunday the sea ran high
and was fully as rough as it
was on Friday. Its damaging attacks
upon the much torn Long Branch bluff
at high tide last night renders it only a
question of hours when Ocean avenue will
have been engulfed to such an extent
that 1T will be impossible at points and
entirely beyond repair at the Rowland
House property, where Fridays high seas
washed tons of bluff away. The gap ex-
tended within a few feet of the sidewalk
on the west side of the drive last night.
The rainfall widened the cut opposite the
Ocean Hotel several feet, and any number
of minor washouts have been made be-
tween North Long Branch and Elberon.
The fences around the gaps on the East
End property, between Long Branch and
North Long Branch, were nearly all car
ried out to sea yesterday, together with
great blocks of the bluff.
The washout near the United States
Hotel has been enlarged some ten feet
since Fridays storm set in, while public
travel over the famous drive is extremely
dangerous near the De Peyster cottages,
opposite North Bath avenue and to the
north of the Scarboro Hotel. Thousands
of dollars worth of damage has been
done to the Monmouth Beach and Sea-
bright bulkheads.
The storm at Seabright created no end
of havoc, and the big bulkhead east of
the Octagon House there was torn in two
by the big seas.
