Tue People Themselves to Blame.
From the Buffalo Enquirer.
We have no sympathy with persons
who complain and beg sympathy
when they have the remedy for their
troubles in their own hands. The
remedy for trusts is in the hands of
the Masses of the people whom men
like Mr.. Havemeyer plumber. As
long as the people are too lazy,
ignorant, and weak to use their rem-
edy, it IS best for them to be
plundered, and you may depend
upon 1t they will be plundered.

HARvARD's GOOD FORTUNE.

Cambridge. Mass. Feb. lit was an
nounced, today. that through the gener-
osity of a friend of Harvard whose name
is withheld, prOfessorship of hygiene is
to be established, with a liberal endow-
ment which in time will yield an annual
income larger than any salary now given
to a professor in the university.
The new professor is to be not only a
teacher but general practitioner OF high
attainments, whose services will be at
the disposal of all the students. For some
time there has been at the university Il
young doctor known as a medical visitor.
whose business it has been to look up all
reported cases of illness and see that they
had proper medical care. His function
has, however been one of a health Off
Ger, rather than that of an attending
physician.
The new professorship will hereafter
ensure TO the poorest student the best
medical advice and treatment. The gift
of the endowment has apparently come
a a response to a statement of the need
contained in President Eliot's report,
which appeared only last week.

EAGAN's SENTENCE Y
The Courtmartia| Says Dis
missaI From the Army.
President Commutes It to Six Years
Suspension From Rank and Duty.
!. accordance With Recommend Of
couttmartial for Clemeney.

washington, Feb. THE President.
,oday. caused to be promulgated the
ssntence in the case of Charles p. Ea-
gan. The court martial sentence was
dismissal from the army and the Presi-
dent has committed this to six years
susnension from duty which covers the
remainder of the time prior to General
Eagan's retirement in January, 1905.
The following is the text Of the order
of the President:
"The accused after trial by a court
martial, composed of officers of high
rank and distinguished services. has
been found guilty of conduct unworthy
an officer holding a commission of the
United States and obnoxious, in the
highest degree, to the discipline and
good order of the military establish
ment. Such behavior is especially de-
serving of condemnation in an officer
holding high rank in the army and
charged with the performance of diff
cult and important administrative
duties in time of great public emer-
gency and from whom, when subjected
to adverse criticism, an unusual de-
gree of restraint and constant and I'M
failing self-control are confidently ex-
pected.
"The proceedings, findings and SEN
tcnce in the case of Brig Gen
Charles F. Eagan. commissary general
of subsistence. United States army, are
therefore approved. In view, however.
Of his gallant conduct in battle, on
more than one occasion, which merited
and has received the warm commenda-
ton Of his superiors. and of his long
and honorable record of service. eX-
tending over period SURPRISING in du-
ration that usually allotted to gen
Grafton, having regard. also, to the
mitigating circumstances which were
developed during the trial of the case.
and in Difference to the recommends
ton to clemency submitted in his be-
half, the sentence imposed by the court
is committed to suspension from rank
and duty for six years. Feb. :. 1899.
,SigneO VIM. Mckinley"
1t was stated by Adjutant General
Corbin that Gen. Eagan's suspension
carries him TO within a few days of his
retirement under the age limit. He
will be reinstated in time to retire with
the regular rank and pay provided in
such cases.
The sentence of suspension according
to the legal officers of the department
does not deprive Gen. Eagan of any
part of his pay. but. as the sentence
read without rank and duty" he loses
his allowances, which include commu-
tation of quarters, rations and fuel and
his horse allowance. This is quite 4
large financial item.
