Mr.. Newman certainly had a very
tough time with the grip, and it is no
wonder that he thinks that the remedy
that cured him can't be beat. His case
shows how profoundly grip poisons the
system and how obstinately it resists all
ordinary efforts to eradicate it.
Few cases can be worse than Mr., New

ach troubles combined with great weak

Protesting Against Rate Reduction.

Protesting Against Rate Reduction.
Atlanta, Ga.-The recent PROPOSE
ton of j. Pope Brown, Chairman of
the Georgia Railroad commission, to
reduce the passenger rate in Georgia
from three to two cents per mile was
protested against by the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, the Order
Of Railway Conductors, and unions OF
The blacksmiths, machinists ana teieg
raphers, boilermakers, railway train
men, carpenters and joiners, clerks
and car men. These organizations en-
ployed an attorney especially to rep
resent them, who urged that such a
reduction would work against the
prosperity of the state and lead to
reduction in the number of railroad
employees, as well as of their wages.
The Travellers Protective Association
also protested that a reduction. as
proposed, would result in fewer trains
and poorer service.

REGRETS MUKOEN'S RETREAT.
Believes That the Peril of the Army
at That Juncture Over.Estimated
and That the Day Was Far From
Lost When Retreat Was Ordered.

Gunshu Pass, May General Line
witch granted an interview to the
Associated Press at his headquarters
here in the course of which he eX-
pressed himself as highly satisfied
with the present condition of the Rus
sian army and its readiness to assume
the offensive. He manifested en-
phatic regret for the retreat from
NIukden. The new commander-in-chief
believes that the peril to the army at
that juncture was over-estimated, and
that the day was far from being lost
when the retreat was ordered With
his eyes cleaning with great energy
and emphasizing his words with
blow upon the camp table before him,
General Linevitch exclaimed:
would certainly not have re-
treated. | realize that it is easy now
TO pass judgment upon accomplished
facts, but nevertheless | repeat
would not have retreated. | persuad-
ed KuropatFin to stand at Tie Pass
and we halted there for time. We
could have remained, but on account
of the factors he considered it mex
pedient, and the retirement was con-
tinued. After assuming command
gave the men days rest. The
Japanese did not press us, and could
not do so, as their condition was
quite as bad as ours. AS for that
unfortunate retirement itself, any OBJ
server can convince himself that its
significance and especially its influ-
ence upon the army has been indus
triously and greatly exaggerated by
the Japanese and the foreign press.
The retreat was in no sense in the
nature of a complete rout proof OF
which is evident in the fact that in
less than a month after the retreat
the two armies were thrown into con-
fusion by the Japanese, had been col
Ilected and fully reorganized. The
first army did not require this, hay
ing retired in order.
General Linevitch attributes the
great success of the first army during
the retreat to the relatively more adj
vantageous position in which 1t was
located He admitted that there were
heavy losses in both men and ma
terial during the retirement, especi-
ally to the wagon train, but he de-
clared this was also exaggerated.
Touching the breaking through of the
Japanese at the Hun river on March
9. General Linevitch said he did not,
nor did he now attach real signifi-
canoe to it, believing that this force
was not greater than two companies
of scouts or small bodies of cavalry,
and he believes that the report that
Japanese artillery was in action east
of the Great Manchurian road on
March 10 was based on miscalcula-
ton.
General Linevitch also discussed
the Grippenburg incident, taking the
part of General Kuropatkin as against
his former subordinate, and finished
with an expression of good will to-
ward the press in the present war.
After lan expression of regret thai
so much harm had been done before
he was given command, a cloud of
sorrow darkened the rugged, ener-
getic face of the venerable general,
and he twice repeated; Yes, it is
a sad inheritance.

Washington, May l. - Brigadier
General Fitzhugh Lee, U. S. A., re-
tired died at Providence hospital here,
aged CO years, from an attack of
apoplexy. which he suffered on a
train while en- route from Boston to-
Washington. After General Lee had
been removed to the hospital it was
evident to the attending physicians
that his case was very serious one,
but they believed that his strong vi
tality and will power would assist
materially in a partial recovery, at
least. from the attack. His condition
remained fair, considering the sever
ity of the attack during the day, but
he began to grow weaker, his breath
ins became more rapid and his pulse
lower. terminating in less than two
hours in death. The end was peace
ful and without pain, the general re-
tanning consciousness until within
Ave minutes of the end. Half an hour
before death General Lee recognized
