William H. Dougall, Esq, was an
invalid guest at DR. Abbott's, here last

concerning the cause of his troubles
It Is needless for us to reiterate or

that Mr. Dougall denies the alteration

week Mrs Dougall may insert a full

we have supposed that mud was COM

We breathe is composed of hydrogen

can scarcely believe that we see, but
we consider ourselves truthful in stat

Sherman Cogswell, I'd, has been one
OF the lucky few to deliver his crop
of tobacco to New Milford sorters.
and receive a check for more than
he anticipated the tobacco would
amount to. The weight deceived
him on the right side, and the price
the same as he was guaranteed be-
fore he started. This tobacco was
sold by him in the lot, last August,
to T. Soule, for @. Schoverling s. Co.,
and the manner of Mr. Cogswell's
handling after the tobacco was
raised, insured for him the above
result.

PRISONERS TO BE FREED.

st. Louis. Feb. 11.-Established prcc-
cdents of the United States army were
overthrOwn and the freedom of nearly
200 men now confined in federal peni,
tcntiaries were assured by n decision
rendered by the United States Court
of Appeals to-day in the case of Peter
c. Deming. a former captain of United
States volunteers. against Robert NJ.
McClaughrey, warden of the federal
penitcntiary at Fort Leavenworth.
Deming was imprisoned on the sen
tence of a court-martial composed of
nine regular officers. conveyed by Gen
eral Shafter March -. 1900. The opin-
ion of the Circuit Court. written by
Judge Walter :. Sanborn is that the
court-mar,ial which sentenced Deming
acted in violation of article - of the
articles of war. which provides that
officers of the regular army shall
not be competent to sit on court t-mar-
tial for the trial of officers and soldiers
of other forces.
The essential question. as stated in
Judge Sanborn's opinion is whether
the volunteer army is the same as the
regular army. or whether it is one of
the "other forces" mentioned in article
u. The opinion establishes the fact
that the volunteer army is at all times
distinct from the regular army
Deming will he released within sixty
days. and all other former members OF
the volunteer army who are confined
in federal prisons on sentences in,
tlicted by courtS-martial of regular of
ficers will also Ike liberated as the re.
suit of tO-day's decision, it is stated
In his opinion Judge Sanborn says
that General Shaftcr was prohibited
by the law, of the United States from
constituting the Dcming court-martla

PRESIDENTS SON QUITE SICK.
Both Lungs Affected and an Eminent
New York Physician Called In.

Groton. Mass, Feb. 11.-President
and Mrs. Roosevelt spent long. anx-
ious day yesterday in the intirmary.
awaiting the crisis of the disease
which yesterday morning appeared to
have taken such a strong hold on their
son. The change for the worse in the
boys condition occurred during the
night and showed itself when the reg
ular morning examination was made
by DIR. Shattuck and DR.. Warren. Sec.
retary Cortelyou. who is the only
means of communication with the sick
room, made the announcement of the
patients serious condition, although he
said then it was not alarming
His temperature is higher said
Mr. Col1elyou. and his respiration is
weaker than yesterday but his pulse
is better
He also said there was no immediate
danger: only the natural progress of
the disease had spread and involved
both lungs.
This sudden and unfavorable turn
warned the President that the most
skillful medical treatment was neces-
sary, and last night he called to the
aid of Doctors Shattuck and Warren
his family physician, DR.. Alexander
Lamber of New York, an eminent prac
ttioncr and man well acquainted
with the boys physique. The decision
to call DR.. Lambert was made after
consultation of the physicians and the
president.
During the day frequent word was
received from the sick room from Mr.
COrtelyou that everything showed th: t
the boys condition was unchanged. al
though at night Mr.. Cortelyou said he
had had Il hard day.
The condition of Theodore RooSe-
welt, Jr., Mt $50 this morning is appar-
emily very serious, for lights can be
seen in the in1irmary and nurses and
doctors are moving around. For the
last half hour the voice of the boy
calling for water could be heard on the
street.
Nothing could be obtained from the
house, but 1t is believed the patient is
delirious. He has double pneumonia.
3:3O a. m.-The excitement in the in
firmary has subsidized and it is under
stood that the patient is now resting
easily. An hour ago he complained of
difficulty in breathing and the paiu
caused some delirium.
At this hour it is stated that the pa
tient is no worse than earlier in the
