REWARDS FOR BRAVE WOMEN.
Two of Them Served Without Pay as Nurses
in Porto Rico.

in Porto Rico.
Washington, d. C, Jan. IL
Margaret Livingston Chanler and A.
BouligDy, heroic women who served
without pay IS nurses IN Porto Rico
during the war, have been recon-
mended for that rare honor, the
thanks Of congress.
They landed in Ponce July 81
and the same day commenced nurs
ing American and Spanish sick Miss
Chaoler, from her own purse, hired
house and established a hospital
for American officers, and, as the
number Of sick grew, hired another
and another. until she had three
hospitals in operation at her own
expense. Ia September she turrei
these hospitals over to the govern
ment trained nurses, having first
provided for their rental and running
expenses
These two brave women then went
to Coamc, nursing the sick there,
and later TO San Juan, and as soon
as San Juan was under the American
flag, started hospital there. Gen.
Miles says their conduct was most
commendable and praiseworthy.
'Such noble and generous acts
performed under circumstances of
great embarrassment and in danger
of contracting fatal diseases preva-
eat at that time" he says, "Our
government should recognize. and I
recommend that appropriate medals
be presented these two women; and
in the case of Miss Chanler, Oh
account of her contributing so
largely and generously from her
own private funds, without the least
hope of ever being remunereted,
further recommend that the matter
be brought to the attention of con-
gress for such action as it may deem
advisable "
The suggestion Is indorsed by
Secretary Alger. who recommended
suitable action by congress 1t is
probable the two women will be
given medals and the thanks of

LIES WITH A BLACK HEART.
Eagan's Abuse of the General Is Couched in
Bitter Words.

btttef WofoS.
Washington, D. c., Jan. II -
General Eagan referred to the pub
lished interviews of General Miles
and the correspondence between
them as TO taeir authenticity, Gen.
Miles having made 4 non.commital
reply, and then witness then said:
When man refuses to deny a
libel or falsehood or a statement
attributed 20 lin, it is well known
that he assumes the matter. When
he avoids the question the suppose
ton is that he can not deny it. MY
question is not answered yet. He
has not denied the interview pub
lished in the New York Journal
dated December %, 1898, and having
refused to distinctly deny it, he
should be held to the strictest
accountability for it. IF he made
these statements as set forth there,
then he lied again, aud if he made
the statement that 'pretense is the
precise term to be used as he said
then, referring to the experime nt),
then he lies with as black heart as
the man who blew up the Maine
possessed, and he deserves to be
characterized and known to America
and Europe where his statements
have gone, as being colossal, prodi-
gious liar of the nineteenth century.
/ submit to this committee and to
the whole country that this account
of an interview with himsin the New
York Journal going uncontradicted,
undenied, and when the opportunity
was given him a refusal to deny it
in terms, places upon him the re.
sponsibility for the statements in
that interview, which statements I |
here aud now denouuce as unmiti-
gated falsehoods, vile. and slanderous,
so slanderous that it can only be |
called filth. I submit to this COM
mittee and to the country at large |
whether it is the characteristic of an |
honorable man to permit such state
ments as are made in this alleged |
interview with General Niles in the |
New York Journal, dated December |
%, 1895, to 60 uncontradicted, if
untrue, and whether or not it ia not
