Count sternbsrg Says Gold Fields

 New York, Feb. 5.-count Adelbert Sternberg, who took part in the Boer campaign and who declares that the treatment he has received from the Brit. ish press and official and non-omcial Englishmer leaves him no cause to De an angiophile. has written letter to The London Times, says the London cores pondent for The New York Times: m which he says that while England IS hated the Englishman Is respected and loved. The continent does not under stand the Boer war. and attacks Eng lands political morality because 1t mis- understands the political principle which made England's greatness political ego tsm.
 The economical advantage to be de- rived from the gold fields, says Count sternberg, was merely a contributary cause of the South African war. The real cause making action imperative was the English principle, tho essence of which Is free trade and straightforward competition
 Count Sternberg says he always thought England was the enemy of the continent unti, he visited the United States and studied the economic conditions there. He now believes that the continental hatred of England Is ungrateful and that the continent ought to awake and rec ognize that its true enemy fs arising in the west like e great sun of gold whose first rays already have been projected across the Atlantic.

An Ideal
 Medicine.
A New Discovery Which Cures All
 Forms of Catarrh.

The tablet is the ideal form in which to administer medicine. but until recently no successful catarrh tablet had ever been attempted. There is now, however ar, excellent and palatable remedy Tor catarrh in tablet form, known as Stuarts Catarrh Tablets and sold by druggists composed of the most recent discoveries in medicine for cure of catarrh and re- suits from their use have been highly gratifying.
 The old time treatment of catarrh was in the form of inhalers, washes, touches. surays, etc Later on internal remedies were used with greater success, but being in Iiduid or powder form were inconven- lent to use and like all medicines in Iiquid and powder form, lose their medi- cinal properties when opened or exposed to the air.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain highly concentrated antiseptios. Red Gum. Blood Root, etc, which kill the catarrh germs in the blood and mucous membrane, and in this respect all authorities are now agreed that catarrh Is constitutional blood disease. and local applications can have only transitory effect.
 The use of inhalers. douches and sprays is a nuisance and inconvenience and can in no wise compare favorably with the same antiseptics given in tablet form i'm ternally, where they can reach the stom- aeh and blood and kill catarrh germs right where they are produced.

TRIAL OF RATHBONE.
Objection to Reading of Deposi-
 tions.

Havana, Feb. 5-The introduction by the eIrernment of dispositions as evidence Tn the trial of the postal fraud cases today brought out . protest by Lawyer Lanuzt, counsel for Estes c. Rathbone. on the ground that communication from the Military Governor to the Cuban Sec retary of Justice dated November IA. forbade the use of such dispositions in the trial. The court produced another communication to the Secretary of Jus tice dated December 6 in which the Mill ttary Governor directed the Secretary of Justice to inform the court that the use of evidence resulting from interrogations be allowed in the trial Senor Lanuza gate an act of Congress, by which, he claimed, the use of interrogatories were forbidden. sn
 Many dispositions have already been read. including one from Postmaster General Smith. which sets forth that he had not authorized Rathbope to purchase . carriage from the postal funds.
 Mir. Carroll the clerk of 8 New York hotel, testified ! that on one hotel bill paid from the postal funds there was an item of thirteen days board for Mrs. Rathbone. The defense produced an afn- davit which Carroll had signed before an attorney in New York in which nc said that none of Mrs. Rathbone's bills had been included with those of MT. Rath- bone while they were at the hotel in question. Several of Rathbone's bills were offered in evidence but some of these did not correspond in amounts to the bills paid from the postal funds. Car roll said he had not read the New fork afSdavft and that he did not know what he had signed.

BOERS TALK BACK.
Say England's Only Aim is Extermi-

 The Hague, Feb. 6.-As an outcome ot conferences held here the Boer delegates have Issued a communicate thanking the Dutch Government for its efforts toward bringing about peace in South Africa, and denying the British statement that they have no instructions from South Africa since March. 1900.
 The delegates affirm they possess plenary powers still in force and declare that the reply of Great Britain to the Dutch note proves that the only object of the former country is the extermination of the Boer nation and Is a further ob- gtacIe to any idea on the part of the dele gation of applying to the British Gov ernment for safe conducts or anything else. It Is understood that the Boer delegates, with Dr. Leyds, the European representative of the Transvaal will have another conference with Mir. Kruger to- day.
 It is rumored here that pr. Kuyper the Dutch premier. will request the use of the cables in order to sound MT. Steyn. former president of the Orange Free State respecting the waiving of indepen- dence and to MT Steyn and MT. Schalk- Burger a proclamation recognizing the right of the delegates in Europe to rep resent the republics in any negotiations. MT. Vessels, in an interview insisted there could be no valid negotiations without the concurrence of the Boer dele gates in Europe and like the other Boer leaders here, he seemed convinced that neither Steyn, Schalk-Bulger nor the Boer generals would approach Lord Kitchener with peace overtures.
