ABOUT LARORERS.

S. 7. Wellman, head of a large Anne
rican engineering concern, in an inter
view for the London Daily Chronicle,
declared that the growing supremacy
of America in the iron trade is due to
the fact that American workmen do
not object to labor saving machinery.
ct the American workman does not,
in Mr.. Wellman's opinion, profit by his
progressive ideas. He says: Il be-
lieve the Welsh coal striker today is
better paid, better housed and better
fed than the average Pennsylvania or
Ohio miner is. ! believe the conditions
surrounding the steel and iron work
ers of both England and Germany are
better than those of America. There
is no such system of pensions i'm vogue
in America, for instance, as prevails
at Essen in Germany, and in many
other large European establishments"

Hoods Sarsaparilla is not merely sim
pie preparation of Sarsaparilla, Dock,
i5tillingia and little Iodide of Potassium.
Besides these excellent Alternatives, IL
also contains those great anti-bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
1t also contains those great kidney RENEE

Nor are these ali. Other very valuable
curative agents are tremendously COM
bined in Hoods Sarsapsrilla, and it is
carefully prepared under the personal
supervision Of a regularly educated phar-

Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith
the people have in Hoods Sarsaparills
matter Of surprise? You can see why
Hoods Sarsaparilla cures, when other
medicines totally, absolutely fail.

SAW THE MINES
LAID IN HARB0R.
An Ex-NavaI Officer Tells What He
Witnessed at Havana.
EXPERIENCE OF THREE YEARSAG0
IL Is His Opinion That a Wire iusted
and Allowed Mine TO Drift Under
the Maine - Several Ways in
Which II Could Have Happened.

NEWPORT NEWS. VA, March r.
special-Captail Gronmeyer. master OF
the German-AmeFican steamer Castillo,
which arrived here to-day from New
Orleans to replenish her bunkers before
continuing her voyage to Hamburg with
cargo Of cotton, confirms the state
mcnt that the Havana harbor is full OF
mines.
Captain Gronmeycr IS a German. and
served his time in the navy of that coun-
tryIo has had experience in planting
mines and talked intelllgently on the
subject when seen by The Times cor
respondent tonight. Said he:
STOPPED At HAVANA.
"When I first heard that the Maine
had been blown up il called 10 my mind
an experience / had there three years
ago. / was master OF another ship then
that made frequent trips 10 Havana. l
was about to steam into tho harbOr when
i was signalled from MORO Castle 10
drop anchor. A pilot came aboard my
vessel and told me that marine engineers
were planting mines in the channel, and
It would be several hours before l could
pass in.
L Waltntu lNe WoIk from the deck.
The mines were put down in blocks ana
wires were run from shore 10 shore.
Spectrums or looking-glasses We're ar
ranged so that an officer ashore could tell
when vessel was over q mine.
EXPLANATIONS.
"Spaniards are lazy people. and It is
my opinion that q wire rusted and al
lowed a mine TO be carried further into
the harbOr by a swift undercuTrent. or
the wire may have been cut by some de-
signing person. This mine lodged under
the Maine 1t might have exploded in
various ways.
THE harbor Is shallow. and NJ low
water the bottom OF the ship may have
struck IT, but the fact that this occurred
at o'clock at night makes this improba-
bic. Some one could have touched the
button ashore and blown up the ship.
AT any rate 1 know there are mines
in the bottom OF the Havana harbor.'
