mittee Leave Havana with Much
Valuable Information.

Havana, March 2S.-The Dolphin
has left for the United States, carry
ing the members of the senate Cuban
committee. The senators all say that
they will not talk for publication un-
til after they have presented their re-
ports, which they will do shortly.
They assert, however, that they came
with certain well defined plans for
gathering information and have car
ried these out wherever they have
gone. They have seen in private most
of the representative Cubans, and
have secured their views and opin-
ions, very few of which have been
published, as in most instances the
consultations have been regarded as
confidential.
One interview has been given out,
that with Gen. Monteagudo and Col
Villuondas, who assured the members
of the commission that the country
was entirely free of bandits, and cited
the safety with which peddling Turks
trayersed all districts selling trinkets,
and also the fact that the owner of
a sugar estate would no longer hest
tate to drive alone with a large sum
of money to pay his employees. They
assured the committee that there was
no agitation in the eastern provinces
and that desire for annexation to
the United States did not exist in
Cuba.

Sufferers from this horrible inaiady

through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant IN the blood for

pearance- a swollen gland in the

Of it driven out. This S. S. S. does. and
