NEW YORK. March ia special
to the Times from Newport, R. l.,
says:
The following is the reply sent by
Rear Admiral Sampson to Secretary
Long in regard to the matter of the
letter sent by Gunner Morgan to the
former:
United States Navy Yard,
BOSTON. February 20.
"Sir:-In reply to the departments
letter of February 26, / have to state
that / did not give Gunner Morgan
or any one else a copy Of my endorse
ment, nor did l permit n person to
see it except those persons employed
in the preparation Of official corre-
spondence in this Office.
AFTER having received my instruc
tions In regard to the contents OF the
endorsement, my aide, Lieut.. E. L.
Bennett, dictated the endorsement to
the second clerk, p. F. Walsh. The
endorsement was then submitted to
me for signature and was then sent
with the original letter through the
mail clerk, Arthur F. Mackey, to be
press copied. The latter then mailed
the correspondence. This is the usual
routine with the official correspond
ence, of which the endorsement under
discussion was considered to be a
part.
Both the letter and the endorse
ment were copied in the official press
copyboOk, and in this shape were ac-
cessible to the above persons and Mes
senger Chas. ]. Thornton. The only
other inmates of this Office are Ser
geant e. w. Thomas, U. S. M. c., and
John Johnson, fireman, second class.
1t would be impossible for either OF
these two to consult the copy book be-
fore any of the clerical. force arrived
in the morning. 1t is unlikely, how
ever, that either Of these two knew
that the letter of endorsement was in
existence.
sAll the above mentioned people
have been questioned and all deny m
phatically that they were responsible
in any way for the publication OF the
endorsement. / have to add that | I'M
in no way responsible for its publica-
ton.

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Secre-
tary Wilson, of the Agriculture De-
partment is pushing the wireless teleg-
raphy experiments along the Virginia
and Month Carolina coasts. The work
is being done by Secretary Wilson's
direction under the immediate super
vision of Prof. Willis L. Moore, chief
of the weather bureau. Prof. Moore
made this statement to the Associated
Press to-day regarding the results of
the experiments so far conducted:
THE most efficient method of long
distance transmission has been found
to be from wire cylinders. The new
coast stations are being equipped with
cylinders Of 16 wires each and 140
feet in length. From these cylinders
it is expected to cover a magnetic field
of not less than 500 miles. The sta
tions no win operation are at Hatteras,
and at Roanoke Island, in the Pamlico
Sound, North Carolina. Workmen are
beginning the construction of a sta
ton at Cape Henry which will be the
third station. When this is finished
the two remote stations will be 127
miles apart. The three points now are
connected by a government telegraph
line, but this line will be abandoned
on the completion of the Cape Henry
station. This incidentally will save
the expense of maintenance of a half
dozen repair stations"

Middle aged men that have been under
that cloud remember it still with a
shiver. But the important fact is that
there are men who were once in danger
from weak" lungs who have grown
strong again, married and brought up
healthy families.
HOW IT HAPPENED.
There is no chance about such cures.
If only a few persons had been benefited,
it might be said that they had exagger-
ated their danger or had only been s,f-
fering from some omr1on ailrlent. But
when the cured are numbered by thou
sands; when the DOCTORS diagnosis was
consumption when every symptom bore
but that diagnosis weakness, emacia-
ton, bleeding of the lungs-and these
sufferers were perfectly and permanently
cured by the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, it must be concluded
tina. these cures are not of chance, but
due to the healing power Of a great
remedy, for coughs, weak lungs, bron-
chitis, and like diseases, which If neg
lected or unskillfully treated, find a fatal
termination in consumption.
