New York, April 19.-Robert Fitz- simmons today received the following telegram from Jeffries in reply to his message of Thursday last:
 Los Angeles. Cal, April 19, 1902. ITO Robert Fitzsimmons, care the New
 York Evening Journal. New York:
 Your telegram received and l sin cerely trust that you are in earnest and that you mean business. Without wasting words, you made big mis- take in not accepting the Los Angeles offer, as everything was fair and just to you. Your acknowledgement that contest is impossible in the east is only 9 repetition of my action toward their bid. Your actions toward the California bids led me to believe you Were trying to avoid meeting
 We pledged mutually to agree on the best bid on certain date, and at that time the east had not been heard from and you refused to accept anything here. l don't want to dictate anything but We want mutual financial interests and therefore will communicate with clubs in California which will doubtless insist on deciding which is the best date and we must agree on something You deposit g. soc now with the Exam iner. l will do likewise. I am sincere in all | have done and sorry you have not realized the same.

 Asked about the famous water cure.' he said it was employed by the Macabebes, friendly, but so far as he knows no white soldiers were al lowed to be present. They would cap ture the suspects in village. take them to a mud puddle and treat them until they were "cured" or would talk. While it seemed cruel it was nothing compared to the Filipino method Of warfare. The great fear the white soldiers had was of running into their covered trenches and pitfalls in the bottom of which were bamboo poles sharpened and prepared for the impal- ing of white men who were supposed to fall into them. But the whites were wary and seldom got caught. This and 8 dozen other barbarous things done by the Filipinos made the whites feel as though they were justified in doing almost anything. The only thing Walter ever took part in that he says seemed cruel. but which was necessary under the circumstances, was lhe stringing up of natives by the arms after they had betrayed them. in order to make them confess to the truth Cf what they knew.

HAS SYMPATHY
 FOR MR. HOhR 4 Warm Address by General Funston Last Night
His Contempt for the Peanut Pcliti- clans Who Wanted to Absorb Spain, and Are New Gambling in the Blood of Their Countrymen.

Denver. Colo, April 19.-Major Gen eral Frederick Funston was the princi- pal speaker at the banquet Of the Colorado Society Of the Sons of the American Revolution in celebration of the anniversary of :the battle of Lex ington. General Funston spoke largely on the lines of his previous speeches, SO far as the Philippines war was con cerned. He declared that the pr0longa- ton of the war was due more to the influence of outsiders than to the desire of the Filpinos for independence.
 The condition Of the FiIipinos under Aguinaldo's so called republic, he de- cared was worse than during the n.ost oppressive days of Spanish rule. Said General Funston: 1T have only sym pathy for the senior senator from Massachusetts. who is suffering from an over heated conscience"
 The general, however, expresses the greatest contempt for the men who he declared at the outbreak of the Spjanish war wanted us to take every thing Spain had but are now playing at peanut politics and gambling in the blood of their cOuntryfGen.'
 General Irving Hale of Denver was tCastmaster and made one of the most notable speeches of the evening.

Washington, April 19.-The executive Labor adjourned sine die this after neon after adopting an address to the wage workers of America, signed by all members of the council, which says:
 "There are few contests in which the toilers are engaged for the improve ment or for the prevention Of a deter ioration of their condition, unless the iniunctions issued by the courts are of the most far reaching character. in volving the legal and moral rights of workers to perform perfectly legal and legitimate acts to carry on their effort to a successful termination. Injunc- ti0ns of a fragrant, unjustinable and outrageous character are continuously issued. and honost, law abiding and faithful citizen workmen are thrust in- to prison.
 Thus farwe have been unable to per suade the congress Of the United States to enact laws that shall protect the rights and liberty of the people en- gagged in industrial disputes and many courts have interpreted this failure on the part Of congress as a warrant and authority to extend the use, or more properly speaking, the abuse of the writ of injunction, so that the scope of each writ still further invades our con- additionally guaranteed rights.
 This impending and growing danger. | therefore. impels us to appeal to the workers and to all the people of our country so that the true feeling of all may be expressed and the registered

\ STUDY OF SUGAR.

Washington. April 19.-Mr. Teller of Colorado today introduced in the sen ate the following:
 Whereas, it has been currently re ported that nearly the entire crop of Cuban sugar has been purchased and is now held by what is generally known as the sugar trust" which is. the principal consumer Of r9w sugar in the United States. and that any concas- siOns given to the raiscrs of cane sugar in the island of Cuba, or any measure intended for their relief by admitting their sugar at q reduced rate of duty into the United States, will only benefit the sugar trust, and that the Cubans will receive no real benefit from such concession, and
 Whereas, it is alleged that number of citizens of the United States have acquired large holdings of cane pro- ducing lands in Cuba and are now es- pecially urging the reduction of the duty on sugar. under the claim that such reduction will benefit the people Of Cuba, therefore, be it,

The Guards of Legations Again Put

Pel1in, April 19.-The populace is be- coming Increasingly excited over ru- nors Of trouble imminent between the Imperial and foreign troops, but the demanor of the Chinese continues friendly toward foreigners, the best in formed of whom discredit the rumors of the existence of an anti-foreign feel ing.
 Commanders Of the guard at the for eign legations met today and arranged plans for defense should trouble arise.
 The intention of the empress dowager to review the imperial troops on her return to court from a journey to the eastern tombs of the dynasty has been abandoned, presumably because the Chinese officials considered that the holding of the review might be con- strued as a demonstration against the foreign troops.

Rathbone Before the Supreme Court
 At Havana Yesterday.

Havana, April 19.-Estes G. Rath- bone was brought before the supreme court this afternoon on a writ of habeas corpus. His counsel said the audiercia court had accepted the bond offered by the Fidelity company for Rathbone's appearance, but it imposed the unusual condition that the bond be made a public deed drawn before a notary, causing unnecessary delay and expense.
 Senor Nuno, a notary, testified that it would require a week to get the deed through and arrange the amount of state tax upon it. The court re- mained in session until 1O3O tonight, adjCurning at that time until tomorrow. Rathbone says he will resist move ment for his pardon, either on the part of the United States or the Cuban government. He says all he wants is the supreme court to grant his appeal for new trial and the trial to be held before an uninf1uenced court.

Washington. April 19.-After the tur- bulent scene Of yesterday marking the passage of the revised Cuban recipro- city bill, the house settled down to rou- tine business today. An opportunity was found, however, for two elements in the recent struggle to give expres- sion to their feelings.
 This occurred while the Notifications appropria tion bill was under considera- tion. Mir. Grosvenor Of Ohio, one of the waXs and means committee lead CTS, said the amendment which the op- ponents of the ways and means com mittee had engrafted upon the Payne bill rot only wiped out the differential on sugar. but also did away with the oountervailing duty of the Dingley law.
 Mir. Weeks of Michigan made a spir- ited rejoinder on behalf of those who opposed the ways and means commit tee. He frankly conceded that the mo tive Of the opposition had been to kill the reciprocity bill. The Notifications appropriation bill was passed and the conference report upon the legislative appropriation bill was agreed to.

public opinion of the people of our com mon country may more definitely im- press itself upon the minds of our na- tional congress and state legislatures
 With this object in view we recom- mend to all organized workers in na- tional. state, central or local unions,, l, July f. and September l, Gabor Day) 1902, they concentrate their atten- ton to a discussion of the abolition of iniunctions in labor disputes and the passage Of resolutions demanding at the hands of congress and the legis- latures of their respective states the enactment of laws conforming to that purpose.
 Tt is urged too, that at conventions of national unions, state federations, as well as stated meetings of central labor unions and local trade and fed eral unions, this subject matter be fully discussed and emphatic action taken thereon and that the result of that ac- ton be promptly communicated to the United States senators and members of congress from their respective districts.
 'The American Workmen are law abiding, faithful and loyal citizens, they have no desire for immunity from the law governing other citizens, but they most emphaticaly resent and pro test against the action of the courts in convicting them and sentencing them to prison for acts which they have a legal right to perform, and are condemned too. without proper oppor- tunity of defense and trial before q jury of their peers.''

 I was a steady meat eater three times a day for several years. Some body told me that if I would change my diet and take Grape-Nuts Break fast Food at two meals in the day I would improve. I made the experi- ment and in less than two weeks be- gan to improve very rapidly. My ap- petite came back. and I slept better than l had for months.
 I used Grape-Nuts both at breakfast and lunch and ate a little meat for dinner, but rot much. I discovered that few teaspoonfuls of Grape Nuts would furnish more nourishment than quantities of meat.
