FOUND GUILTY OF CONARDICE
AGAINST NEW
YORK VOLUNTEERS.
Conduct of the officers of the Sew
enty-frst Regiment at Santiago
Investigated By the Governor.

Albany, N. Y. April 20.-A hearing on
the report of the court which invesu-
gated the conduct at Santiago Of the
Seventy-frst regiment of New York
City was given by Governor Roosevelt
today.
The hearing developed the fact that
the court of inquiry found that Major
Smith. who was lieutenant colonel OF
the volunteer regiment; Colonel Whit
tie. who was major in that command,
and Major Austin of the staff of BriSa-
der General Smith. and who command
ed company in that regiment were
guilty of lack of bravery and couraSe,
and of incom potency.
The hearing. which was in the form
of a general discussion continued for
nearly three hours. and at its cOnclu-
sion the governor announced that,
while he had not made up his mind
definitely what he should do, still it
was most likely that he would submit
the case of Major Whittle to a military
court, to determine his competency and
fitness 10 remain as an officer of the
national guard of the state; that ne
was undecided what should be done in
the case of Major Smith, because his
duties as lieutenant colonel are mat
ter of pure direction. and that he would
severely reprimand Captain Austin in
a general national guard order.

INTENSE SUFFERING
FROM DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLE
Instantly Relieved and Permanently
Cured By Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
A New Discovery, But Not Patent
Medicine.

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
able cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use of the new
discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was a man
who had suffered to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything be
ate seemed to sour and create gases in
the stomach; he had pains like rheu-
matism in the back, shoulder blades
and limbs, fullnesss and distress after
eating, poor appetite and loss of flesh;
the heart became affected, causing pal
pitatiOn and sleeplessness at night.
Il gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. As
an experiment I finally bought a fifty
cent package of Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets at a drug store and gave them
to him. Almost immediate relief was
given, and after he had used four boxes
he was, to all appearances, fully cured.
''There was no more acidity or sour,
wateTy risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between ten and twelve pounds
in weight of solid, healthy flesh.
although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores,
yet [ consider them most valuable adj
dition to any physicians line of rene
dies, as they are perfectly harmless and
can be given to children or invalids or
in any condition of the stomach, with
perfect safety, being harmless and con-
tanning nothing but fruit and vegetable
ensences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton. biliousness, constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach, however
slight or severe"
StUart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made
by the f. A. Stuart Co. of Marshall,
Mich, and are sold by druggists every
where at fifty cents per package.

that Hepburn, in an interview has
stated that he will support Henderson,

he will have the full Iowa delegation
AS he is chairman of the rules and next

it is claimed that he has the solid sup
port of Iowa. Captain Hull of Des
Moines, chairman of the military com
mittee says he will not be candidate
Politicians here say no Iowa congress-
man is entitled to claim a solid delega-
ton. No conference has been held by
the delegation on the subject and until
it is held, nothing can be known.
Hepburn and Henderson will both
make Strong efforts for the delegation
and it is expected the unit rule will
prevail, giving solid delegation to
the man with a majority.

AMUSING WHISKY CASE.
Difficulty of Conviction Shown at
Mt. Pleasant.
(Snecial Correspondent

Especial Correspondence.)
Mt. Pleasant. April 2O.-This city has
come out second best in another illegal
liquor-selling case. that wherein John w.
Nicholson was on trial on a charge OF
selling liquor on Sunday. Oct. 2, 1888.
The case was UP before City Justice
Nelson last week, but he responded to u
request of the defendant and allowed the
mayor to appoint Precinct Justice Chris
Jensen to preside in his stead. This was
on account of possible bias on the part of
Nelson. The prosecution introduced evil
dence showing that, by means of a back
window two men had seen defendant sell
what appeared to be liquor to number
of persons on the day specified, receiving
in payment what the witnesses took to be
money. The witnesses, under cross-eXam-
nation, could not swear positively that
the liquid handed over the bar was in
toXicating liquor nor could they swear
that the pay received was money.
Those who We're alleged to have been in
the saloon at the time and purchased the
liquor were stricken with a sudden lapse
of memory when asked as to their YER
sion of the affair. They could say nothing
positive in regard to the matter. either of
being in the building or of drinking.
The attorney for the defense asked that
the jury be instructed to render a verdict
of dismissal, the city attorney concurred,
the justice so instructed the jury, and
they gave a verdict in accordance. Pro-
hibitionists are disguised.

Springville, April 2O.-A sad accident
occurred here this afternoon. by which
Bernard Bartlett aged 10. lost his life IN
the seething waters of Hobble creek Inc
affair is shrouded in mystery, but the
facts as known are as follows:
Young Bartlett and small brother,
about. years of age. had been down at
the creek near their home in the First
ward, and had returned to the house;
The older boy was last seen alive about D
O'clock, and it is supposed that he imme-
diately returned to the creek after leaV-
ing his brother. He was next seen, a
corpse floating in the stream, by Devere
Child about an hour later. The latter ran
for assistance, and got ALI Weight, VINO
pulled the body out of the water nearly a
mile below the place where he evidently
fell in.
Bartlett's face was badly bruised. and
it was evident that some kind of a strug-
gle had taken place. The theory is that
the boy. who was an epileptic, had taken
a fit and fallen on mis- face on the rocks
at the bottom of the creek. On a previ-
Gus occasion the young man had tallen
in the creek in d fit, but had escaped IN
