ALGER'S ILLNESS SERIOUS.
Doctors Now Think He Has Ty-
phOid Fever.

CHICAGO, Jan. O. A special to the
Chronicle from Washington says:
The members of the family and imme-
date friends of Secretary Alger are
seriously disturbed about his illness.
his physicians now fear that he has
typhoid fever.
Gen. Alger has been confined to his
bed for more than three weeks. At first
it was thought he was suffering from
la grippe and he was treated accord
ingly. Ten days ago his physician con-
cluded the trouble was due to malarial
fever and since that time has treated
him for that disease.
Today the dreaded symptoms of ty-
phoid made their appearance, and while
the doctors will not say it is a pro-
nounced case of typhoid fever they are
very aDprehensive that it will turn out
that way. They said tonight that the
disease would be fully developed to-
morrow if it is typhoid fever. Gen.
Alger has lost flesh rapidly since he
was first attacked.

NO REST FOR DURRANT.
Cremation and Burial Refused for
His Remains

CHICAGO. Jan. "a special to the
Chronicle from San Francisco, Cal.
says: There seems to be no place for
the body of Theodore Durrant. Both
crematories here have absolutely re-
fused to handle the remains, and no
cemetery has yet consented to receive
them. They are still at the Durrant
house, and it looks as though they
would stay there for some time. The
elder Durrant said today: my efforts
to carry out the last wishes of the dead
boy have been unavailing. The crema-
tories refuse to take the body, and
cemeteries are likewise reluctant. We
may ship the remains to Los Angeles
and have them cremated there, or we
may take the body and bury it at. sea.
We don't know yet what we can do"

l. One of the most successful and liberal merchants of New York once said: "Wise advertising is contin- uous performace. It begins with the proper pricing of stocks; it goes on to attract public attention to the stocks, and when it has sold them it cannot rest-its work is never done. I has made friends, and it must
 hold them; and the way to do this is to appeal continually to their inter- est by appealing as often as possi- ble to their self interest. Few stores are so uninteresting that they can not make appeals of this character J

It would seem that if any further proof had been needed of the myth ical character of the evidence against Captain Dreyfus, whose secret trial and sentence on the charge of hay ing furnished plans of French forti- fcations to the German authorities has provoked such widespread ex- citement throughout France, it would have been supplied by the declaration in the reiehstag of Bar on Von Bulow, German Minister of Foreign Affairs, that the story of the finding of compromising docu- ments affecting the condemned man in the waste-paper basket of the German Embassy was sheer inven- tion." The German Foreign Minis ter, moreover, emphatically denied that any relations had ever existed between Dreyfus and representa- tives or agents of Germany. Since the wretched captain was convicted solely on the evidence of a scrap of letter alleged to have been found in the receptacle above alluded to, the case against him must be re- garded as having been completely demolished by Yon Bulow's declara- tion. And yet there are some over shrewed people who intimate that the information was sold, not to Germany but to Russia.-New Or leans iStates.

Representatives from the Union veter- ans Patriotic League of California, Ger field League, Harrison Camp, Army and Navy Republican Veterans League &C., cepted the invitation issued by the Anti- Civil Service League to attend a confer ence at 405 Montgomery street last night and a spirited session resulted. James J. Moore of the Union Veterans Patriotic League was elected chairman, and J. s. Ramsay, a representative of the Anti Civil Service League, secretary
 In opening the meeting the chairman stated it was the purpose of the confer ence to solidify the organization and dis seminate the principles of the league throughout the State.
 A lively discussion then ensued, after which a committee of two from each organ ization represented was appointed to con- stitute campaign committee, the mem bers to be selected by the chairman by the next meeting.
