LONDON. Jan. 5.-About 1000 persons assem-
bled tonight in Albert Hall to bid farewell to
Gen. Booth, the head Of the Salvation Army.

scenes Of prayer and praise. Gen. Booth made

send a cordial message to their brethren across
the ocean, adding:
1T am sure they deserve all cheer and inspira-
ton 1t is possible to give them. We have had
storms and sorrows In the United States. as you
all know too well. One of my sons separated
himself from us and is working in his
own way. I do not bear him Ill will,
for. though I think he 10 very, very
wrong, he is still my son. AS to controversy
and disputation / will have none of 1t. 1 am the
friend Of all men. and whether they use me well
or i'll. better or worse than my Master. I will
live and die the enemy of none"
This declaration called forth enthusiastic
cheers.
A nincident of the gathering was the arrange
ment of hundreds Of drilled Salvationists on
tiers of seats. with colored Graperies. which. at
q given signal. were 80 disposed as to represent

Prussio Acid.

New ORLEANS. Jan. 5.-simon Hornsheim,
ono OF tho woalthiest and most public spirited
citizens OF New Orleans, committed suicide in
his tobacco factory yesterday by taking prussia
acid. The body was not found until this morn.
ing. Mr.. Hernsheim was missing from his
home last night, ana his family began n search
for him to-day. The factory was searched care.
fully, and the body was found in an out-of.the-
way corner. Mr.. Hcrnshcim had poured out q
glass OF whiBkoy and cmptiod n small vial of
prussic ncid in It, walked to the corner, and
there taken the poison. He left ten letters to
relatives and friends explaining his suicide.
His sister and another member Of the family
had committed suicide.
The suicide Is attributed to dependency over
the death of his wife two years ago. He was
much worried nlso over the Cuban war and tho
order OF Gen. Wcylcr prohibiting tho export OF
HAVANA tobacco. A large amount of tobacco
belonging to him WAS seized BY Weyler on the
ground that II was purchased after the order
prohibiting exports was made. Only recently
was II released. Tho quarantine regulations
which shut his cigars out OF Texas and other
parts OF the South also caused him dependency.
Mr.. Hcrnsheinl was n native ofNew Orleans and
wns 90 years old. He served in the Confederate
IN the tobacco trade shipping leaf tobacco to
Europe. After tho war ho went into tho manu-.
facture Of cigars, tobacco. and cigarettes. His
factory, La Belle Creole, employed 5000 hands,
and was the largest in the South and one OF the
three largest in tho United States. He acquired
a large fortune and his residence was probably
the finest In New Orleans.
