Carl Valentine. II years old, OF $50 Elton
street, East New York, is dying in his home
az a result OF eating number Of laxative
pills which had been left at the doors Of
houses in that section by a patent medicine
firm.
Young Valentine and a number Of boys
Of his age on Friday afternoon saw an
agent Of the medicine firm distributing the
pills done up in little packages. The boys
followed him and gathered UP the pack
ages, eating the pills under the impression
that they were candy
After reaching home at night Valentine
became delirious from the effects Of BELLA
donna and etrychnine. DIR. Frank 8. Senior,
the family physician. says the boy will
probably die.
sThe boys mind Ia completely deranged
and his eyesight Is almost gone, said the
doctor. SThis practice Of sending out

Andrew Valentine. the father Of the boy,

laques Agents Invade the Home Of the
widow Of the Treasury's ExsComptroiier.

CHARLESTON, 8. c., April ii-There was
much indignation here to-day when it
became known that dispensary constable
had invaded the Trenholm home on q
hunt for blind tiger liquor. Mrs. Tren-
holm IL the widow Of William L. Trenholm,
who was Comptroller Of the Currency under
President Cleveland. She has fine house
at the head Of the Battery. and she was
astounded when five rough countrymen
called and said they had orders to search
the place. Protests and entreaties were
unavailing.
The officers pushed their way in, fright
ened women who were calling and went
through every room.
They opened wardrobes, scattered cloth
ing and left without finding a trace Of
whiskey. Friends OF the family kept the
wires hot to-day and Gov. Hayward was
informed OF the outrage. The only ex-
PLANTATION the constables could offer was
that some grievous mistake had been made
in the street number. and to-day the chief
of the dispensary In this city called on
Mrs. Trenholm with an apology. 1t was
not accepted.
Feeling ran high for time and the cti-
zens recalled the fact that it was dispen-
sary work OF this kind that precipitated the
Darlington war when Tillman was Cover
nor.
1t was said tonight that a committee
would be sent to Columbia to file protests
with Gov. Hayward with the hope Of pre-
venting similar outrages in the future.

KNEW BELLAIRs As CAMERON
II. ID. b. Edwards Tells OF His Career In
Jamaica-Bank nj Kingston Defrauded.
Special Cable Despatch 10 THE Sun.


Special Cable Despatch 10 THE Sun.
HAVANA, April ii.-H. d. B. Edwards,
at present the representative here Of the
Standard Life Assurance Society of Eng
land. stated to-day that he recognized In the
likeness Of Capt Bellairs. printed In
The SUN, man he knew well In Kingston,
Jamaica. In 1891, as E. A. Cameron. THE
Sun correspondent knew Bellairs very well
In Havana, and he and other persons
agree that the photograph taken from
Inspector Byrnes's book on criminals.
which was recognized by Mr.. Edwards
as that Of the man he knew as Cameron.
Ia an excellent likeness Of the Bellairs who
was newspaper correspondent and Gen.
Woosi's friend here.
In 1891 Mr.. Edwards was employed in the
Colonial Bank Of Kingston. Jamaica. Ac-
cording to the story he tells. Cameron
came to Jamaica during the exhibition Of
that year and introduced himself as young
Engiishman. who was travelling for pleas
ure and had come there to see the show.
He became an honorary member of the
club there and mixed in the best society,
After he had been there q month or 80
Cameron's money gave out, and he applied
to the Colonial Bank for a loan. He said
he wanted only couple OF hundred pounds.
He showed a letter purporting to come
from firm OF solicitors in England to back
up his request Mr. Edwards does not
remember the exact wording Of the letter.
but II said the writer had just seen Cam
eron's father, who was glad to hear that
his son would soon be home. The letter
was so plausible that the bank gave CAM
eron the money he asked for.
The bank sent Cameron's draft TO Eng
land with the solicitors letter attached.
A few days after Cameron had left for New
York the English mail brought the draft
back with the statement from the London
agents that it was forgery. The Kings
ton police Immediately cabled to New York
and Cameron was arrested in the latter
place on landing.
As soon as Cameron was arrested in
New York other charges were preferred
against him, one being charge Of forgery
in Florida. The Colonial Bank of Kingston
did not press it's case as 1t was thought the
other charges would he proved against him.
Mr.. Edwards, who makes this statement,
was well known to THE Sun correspondent
in Jamaica as an employee Of the Colonial
Bank Of Kingston in 1894. He was regarded
as a man Of good standing in the commun-
ity. He came to Havana just after Bellairs
left In July. 1900. or, he says. he would have
denounced him here
E. A. Cameron is one of the aliases Of
Charles Bellenden, according TO Inspector
Byrness book. which records the arrest Of
the man on his arrival here from Jamaica
In 1891. but adds only that he was taken
to Florida, where he was convicted and
served seven years for forgery.
