MRIGLADSToNEI ILL.

London, January 19.-The Pail Mall
Gazette this afternoon makes the follow
ing announcement in big type:
with deep regrst we learn on most
excellent authority that Mr.. Gladstone s
health causes the gravest anxiety to those
about him. His sojourn at Cannes has
not had the effect of fortifying his
strength as anticipated"
The News piacards of the Pail Mall
Gazette read: "Critical condition of MIR.
Gladstone.
The announcement is causing much ex-
element. :.
London, January 19-An official medi-
cal statement issued tonight reasserts
that there is no cause for alarm as to
Mr.. Gladstones health, although it has
not benefited as much as had been
hoped at Cannes. The facial neuralgia
pains persist with daily fluctuations
owing to the cold winds and wet
weather, but the complaint is quite
local. His physical powers have not
suffered; his strength is good, he, joins
the family at meals and takes regular
drives, weather permitting. 1t is not
true that the family had been summoned.

WANTED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Man Arrested by Officer Haggett Said to
Have Burglarized Store in White field.

Last night the police received a tele-
phone message from the police of White
field, n H., stating that on Sunday
night last, jewellery store was broken
into in that place and fifteen gold chains,
half dozen ladies' fob chains of gold,
half dozen stick pins and two overcoats
with other articles had been stolen. The
Whiitefield officers heard of the arrest OF
the man who was captured here on Tues
day by Officer Haggett on Commercial
street and on whose person was found
some jewelry and two oyercoats corre-
spending with the description given by
the Whitefleld police as having been stolen
from that place. The man who gives his
name as William Robinson was held by
the police here until this morning In
order to find out if possible where he had
stolen the goods found upon him. Last
night he was told of the message received
from Whitefeld and he stated to Deputy
Marshal Hartnett that he should not go
to New Hampshire without a fight. An
officer from Whitefeld will come here in
the morning with q warraDt for Robinson
and will undoubtedly take out requisition
papers and force the man to go to New
Hampshire with him. The Portland
officers apparently made no mistake when
they landed this man as a crook.

MORGAN STILL TALKING.
Announces That He VIII want another
Day For His Speech.

Day For His Speech.
Washington, January 10. 9.-Senator Nor
gan continued his speech in advocacy OF
the ratification of the Hawaiian annexa-
tion treaty in the executive session OF the
Senate today. He announced at the con-
olusion Of today's session that he probably
would require one more day in which to
complete his argument. He dealt today
with the agricultural and commercial
possibilities of the island, with the char
aoter Of the present government and with
the position of the residents or the lsiano
on the subject of annexation. he re-
peated his assertion thct President Cleve-
land was favorable to the acquisition or
the island and again expressed the
opinion that it was his intention to nave
restored and Queen Liliuokalani / to have
negotiated with her a treaty of annexa-
tion. He believed that Mr.. Cleveland
would never have taken such a positive
position as he did take against the Dole
government and in opposition to annexa-
tion but for the sntagonistio and mis-
leading report of Commissioner Blount.
Mr.. Morgan had been convinced from
private interviews with Mr.. Cleveland
that he not only believes in the wisdom
of annexation but that he also would
have recommended the annexation OF
Cuba under right conditions n1r. Nor
gan took up the criticisms upon the
present government of Hawaii. defending
it in strong terms and eulogizing Mar.
Dole as one of the most competent rulers
of the time.

QUIET IN BIDDEFORD.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

Biddeford, January 19.-There was less
activity in the Biddeford and Saco
factories today than on either Of the two
preceding daye, the clearing up process
having been completed. The yard hands
are about the only workmen who have
have anything to do.
There was no disturbance in either city.
Many of the Idle operatives took advan-
tage of the delightful weather and visited
the river, where there is good skating,
and where horse races were in progress
this afternoon.
4 mass meeting of operatives of the
three corporations was held in Marble
hall late in the afternoon. Committees
were chosen to solicit and disburse funds
and provisions during the strike. 1t was
announced that the York committee had
decided not to interview Agent Page till
next week Tonight the work of organ
izing the local branch of the Textile
Workers union was continued.
THE BRUNSWICK STRIKE.
Brunswick. January 19.-The second
strike during the week in this town
took place today when about 225 oper-
atives at the Cabot mill refused to work.
The piecers went out Monday morning,
but have since returned to their former
positions. Today three-fourths of the
speeder tenders went out. Officers were
stationed at the mill during the after
noon to protect those remaining at their
usual stations of labor. But no violence
was threatened by the strikers. Super
intendent Eaton says The crew will be
increased, and he thinks the strikers
will return, although the company can
not change the rates and wages. Those
leaving the mill today seem to act un-
der compulsion, showing that the feel
ing against the company is controlled by
the leaders of the strike movement.
About 700 hands were still at work at
the closing hour tonight. The attitude
of the strikers remains unchanged.

our duty-I hope it will MOTTO sreserve
our right and independence to take
isolated action"

Looked for in the Near Future-Bruns-
wick Only Addition to Striking Com
munities.
Boston, January 19.-The third day of the
wage earners' strike in the New England
cotton and wooden industrial centres, has
been an uneventful one, and during the
past "a hours peace ard quietness have
prevailed. Those who were at first in
clined to believe that either the strikers
or mill owners would hold out only few
days, have now come to the conclusion
that the matter has settled down to q
contest of endurance. There are no signs
of concessions by either side and none is
looked for in the near future. In many
of these places the entire textile indus
tries are not stand still as in the case
of New Bedford, where upwards of 1000
are Mt present employed in the seven
mills and 3s1, 800 spindles are running
to their fullest capacity, while the com.
plete tie-up Of the cloth mills represent
the silence of S75, 900 spindles.
The only new acquisition to the strik-
ing communities today was the Cabot
mill at Brunswick Me-, when 225 opera
tives refused to work at the reduced
wages. Those who left the mill are speed
tenders and fully 700 operatives still re-
main. When the latter left their work to-
night there was no prospect of further
trouble, and the mill agents claims that
the crew will be increased. Strikes
are now in progress in the cotton mills
at New Bedford, siddeford, Saco. Bruins
wick, Lewiston and Burlington, and in
the King Philip, Laurel Lake and Har-
graves, No. /, at Fall River, and the
White Rock mills at Westerly. In the
wooden centres there are strikes in the
Wauskuck and Geneve mills at Providence
Central mill at Central Falls, Andover
and Laconia, n. H. the latter being a
| hosiery concern.

stitution is said to have been no ex-
 ception to this rule. Of the twenty
 two cases treated. seven or eight are
 said to have been very doubtful. In
 several, the physicians in charge could
 hold out scarcely any hope of recovery.
 Under any other treatment they say
 there would have been no hope. Out of this number two have died, one has
 been told after two weeks trial that nothing could be done for him and he has been sent home. All the others are making rapid progress towards recovery In both cases of death autopsies were held. One showed en- largements and fatty degeneration of several of the vital organs and proved that recovery from the first was abso- lutely impossible. The other case was to the five physicians present con- elusive proof of the efficacy and value even in advanced cases of the Pneumo- Chemic treatment. Notwithstanding the fact that it could not pull the pa tient through a season of low barom- eter during which he died, one lung was shown to have almost entirely cleared up and to be healing rapidly The physicians present who were not familiar with it, are free to express their surprise that any treat- ment could accomplish the results which the autopsy showed had been in that case by the Pneumo-C -Chemic treatment.
