NELLY AVERAGED
 $17,OOO A MONTH Amount of Postal Funds Taken
 in May is S31,352. SOME STARTLING EVIDENCE Rathbone Says Special Agents Found Shortage Last Year But it Was
 Thought Nothing Had Gore
 Wrong Some Surprise
SOME STARTLING EVIDENCE

Havana, June 4.-Acting Director of Posts Bristow today inquired as to the amount of postal funds taken by c. F. W. Nicely in May, 1899, and ascertained that it was $31, ,352. Neelys monthly average was about $17,O0O. His system of book keeping was simplicity itself. Apparently he merely divided the amounts received, taking one-half for himself and account ing for the other.
 This morning the examination of Estes G. Rathbone, former director Of posts, was continued. It lasted more than four hours. The most startling fact developed was that on May 26 of last year Mir. Rath- bone ordered Special Agents Leatherer and Sullivan to examine the accounts. They found a shortage, but it was not thought that anything had gone wrong They re- ported, however that there was no check upon the bureau of finance and they re- commended that certain blank forms be made, which would answer the purpose, such as all postma sters use when making their reports to the department monthly. MT. Maynard, then chief agent indorsed the recommendation and forwarded it to MT. Rathbone. The latter approved it and
 
 and forwarded it to Nicely. After he had initiated it, instead of putting the scheme into operation he quietly pigeonholed it, and it did not see the light of day until May 15 of this year, when the plan was put into effect.
 MT Bristow says he is almost sure that the extent of the steal will amount to something between $S0,00O and $100,0O0, but that this will not touch the item of sur charge statements, which Is $411 ,00O As to how many of these burned and how many were sold it is impossible to obtain definite information As many have been traced, it is known positively that all were not destroyed, but if Nicely sold, say $50,0O0 or s100,000 worth, it would not be surpris- ing, MT. Bristow thinks, to find them scattered all over the world.
 The postal inspectors say it is astonish- ing that a system so rotten could have been concealed beyond the first month. Every day only adds to the surprises.

CURE GUARANTEED

Patients will be received and treated promptly, and not one cent VIII be required for treatment until the patients say that all desire and craving for theeir former habit Is destroyed. The patients should remain though very few do) under the observation and direction of the doctor for week or more. The treatment can be given in secrecy, and is so mild that the most delicate have taken it with little or no suffering. In fact, the patient hardly realizes that he is under treatment until he finds himself cured and full of joy at his liberation from the most exacting and cruel masters that ever dominated slave.
 Dr. Westmoreland has never failed to relieve all of the great number that have taken his remedy for these enslaving hab- its or diseases. Why would any one con- tinue in bondage when he is guaranteed cure? How could any physician devote his entire time to this one speciality and make this proposition, unless he knows he can cure you?
 No one that is addicted to any of these dreadful diseases or habits should fail to avail himself of this great opportunity of being cured at once of these, the greatest affictions that mortal ever had. For fur ther information call on or address

DELEGATES ARRIVING
Will Attend Dissenting Democratic Con-
 vention Held in Jackson, Miss.

Jackson, Miss, June 4.-Dclegates are ar irving in the city on every train to attend the dissenting state convention, which will assemble in Representatives hall to- morrow morning to select delegates to the Kansas City convention and nominate a presidential electoria ticket.
 The dissenting movement is the out growth of the meeting of the state eXecu- tive committee on the 30th of April, at which an order was issued for plurality primary on the Fist of June to select the national delegates and electorial ticket The order did not meet with general aD- proval, up to the present time twenty six of the seventy-five counties have re- fused to make provisions for the primary. Two weeks ago an independent call was issued for the convention which assemblies tomorrow. The prospects tonight are that about one-half of the counties will be rep resented.
 The delegates resent the imputation that they are bolters from the party, claiming they have the unquestioned right by party precedent to meet and nominate a ticket to be submitted to the people on the Fist of June at the plurality primary. It is ex- pected that the convention will result in closing the breach in the party and pre- vent the expected factonal division.

GEN. OTIS IS AGAIN
 ON AMERICAN SOIL He Was Quarantined for Five
 Daye at Angel Island. WAR Is PRACTICALLY OVER Would Make No Statement as to the Situation in Philippines, as it
 Would be Inconsistent With
 His Duty as an Officer
WAR Is PRACTICALLY OVER

San Francisco, June 4.-After five days in quarantine at Angel Island, Major Gen
 eral D. S. Otis, who arrived last Wednes-
 day from Manila, was allowed to land to-
 day. Several cases of smallpox on board
 the transport Meade were the cause of the quarantine, and General Otis and all on
 board had to submit to vacination. It had
 been decided to receive General Otis here
 with full military honors, but for some reason this ceremony was omitted.
 When seen by reporter of the Associa- ted Press, General Otis, in response to a request that he make statement of the situation in the Philippines, said that while it would give him great pleasure to comply with the request, he was constrained to re- frain, for such action in his judgment would be inconsistent with his duty as an officer of the army. Asked what would be the effect on the war if the resort of Aguinaldos death was true, General Otis said that the war was practically ended, that Agunaldo's followers were deserting him fast and those who now remain with him are generally of the lower class. Most of his officers have left him, though some still remain in touch with him.
 Some of those who have left him are now engaged in business in Manila and others are hiding in the mountains. Many of his closest followers very friendly toward l.-e United States, and as as the na- tives in general gain confidence in the friendly offices of the Americans there could be little difficulty in bringing them tC terms. Asked as to the commercial value of the islands, the general said that they were vastly rich, especially in hemp, sugar
 a,,1f fN1No @l.. tion became more quiet business of all kinds would increase tremendously, as it is now doing.
 General Otis would not state whether or not he favored the retention of the islands by this country, and in response to such a query he merely said:
 We have got them now. What are we to do about it?
 Regarding the number of troops and the condition of the soldiers General Otis said: There are 55,000 effective troops scattered among the islands now, engaged in protect ing the people from guerilla warfare, which is rampant in sections The general health of the troops is exceedingly good. The Americans can stand the climate better than the Filipnos and especially during the rainy season did their health impress me. The men are becoming acclimated and though it may become necessary to send out relief troops at times, it will hardly be necessary to send soldiers very frequently" General Otis said that his own health was excellent. He will leave for Washington
 tonight and will report to the president at once.
