Now York, March 20. Anton Soldi,
the celebrated musical director, died
suddenly In this city last night of
poisoning, probably resulting from
eating fish. Mr. Seldl left his home
shortly after dinner last evening and
went to the home of his business agent,
P. Bernstein. Ho had no sooner ar
rived there thnn he was taken violently
III. The family physician of Mr. Bern
stein was called. About 10 o'clock two
other physicians were summoned, but
the patient died at 10:15.
Anton Soldi was born In Pesthe, Hun
gary, about 1850. When a young man
he was secretary to nlchard Wagner,
the composer. After leaving the studio
of Wagner he began the study of
music under Hans Klchter, of Lelpslc.
Mr. Seldl came to America about 12
years ago, and at once became promi
nent In musical work. He was recog
nized as the ablest director of Wag
nerian music. At the time of his death
he was conducting tho concerts given
at tho Waldorf-Astoria, and was re
cently selected aB the director of tho
permanent orchestra of New York city,
which has been recently organized,
and for which $100,000 Is being raised
by subscription for maintenance. He
was also leader of tho Philharmonic
society, of this city, and was to have
been one of the musical directors of
the Maurice Qrau Opera company next
season. A short time ago he refused
a call to the royal opera at Berlin.

THIS MASS OK TKSTIMON.
No Tcolmlciil Dntntl Is Omitted In tho
JOO, OOO Words.
Washington, March 29. The Im
mense mass of testimony taken by the
Maine court of Inquiry was sent to the
senate yesterday, and with the presi
dent's message and the finding of the
court referred to the commltttee on
foreign relations. The testimony was
taken on IS different days, the 14th
day, however, being devoted to view
ing the wreck. Every witness who
was known to have any Information
that could throw light upon the great
disaster was called to give testimony.
Tho story of the destruction of the ves
sel Is told not graphically, but In a
manner which gives all the obtainable
facts. No technical detail Is omitted.
Every movement and Incident connect
ed with tho Mnlno from tho time she
left Key West until the day divers ex
amined the wreck slowly sinking In the
mud of Havana harbor is given.
Those wha read could have but lit
tle doubt as to whether there was an
Internal or external explosion. Per
haps the most significant testimony Is
that showing' the bottom plates on
the port side of the III fated Maine to
be bent Inward and upward, a result
that hardly could have followed any
thing save an explosion from the out
side. A mass of testimony Is submit
ted showing the care exercised on
board the ship by Captain Slgsbee and
his ofllcers, and tho apparent Impossi
bility of the accident occurring by any
Internal cause, such as the heating
of the bunkers, spontaneous combus
tion, or from other causes upon which
so many theories were based.
The testimony of Captain Slgsbee Is
of the greatest Importance, anu his Is
of more general Interest than that of
any man called before the board. With
great care and minuteness he gives an
account of the management of the
ship, how she was handled, what was
done from day to day on board, how
"she sailed Into Havana, her anchorage
and what he knew about It, and In
fact every point upon which the gov
ernment and the country desires to ba
Informed. Nothing In Captain Slgs-
bee's testimony shows that the an
ihorage was changed or that It was
considered dangerous by any one.
Second to the Importance of the tes
timony of Captain Slgsbee Is that of
Ensign Powelson, who had charge of
the divers, and knew from day to day
what these divers found. This officer
was minutely Informed as to the con
struction of the Maine and everything
about her. His testimony was to a
certain extent technical, bearing upon
the construction of tho ship, her plates,
etc., but It w'as from these plates and
this technical knowledge that he was
able to declare that the explosion took
pluco from the outside.
The divers, Morgan, Olsen and
Smith, all contributed Important evi
dence. They testified that the plates
were bent Inward on the bottom port
side and outward on the starboard
side.
The story of the explosion Is told by
different witnesses, and adds little to
what Captain SlgBbeo and Commander
Walnwrlght related.
Nothing In the testimony fixes re
sponsibility, no conspiracy Is apparent
and no knowledge of the planting of a
mine is shown. Captain Slgsbee states
that a somewhat bitter feeling existed
against tho American ship and Amer
icans generally, and a witness whose
name Is suppressed told of overhearing
a conversation among Spanish officers
nnd a citizen Indicating a foreknowl
edge of tho destruction of the Maine
by blowing her up. An official of the
American consulate tells of Informa
tion received anonymously tending to
show that a conspiracy existed. But
nothing Is definitely stated which
fixes any responsibility upon Spain or
her subjects.
The testimony makes 100,000 words of
strictest detail.

DOING GOOD EVERYWHERE.
A Medical Dlicovory that Effectually Cures
Plies in Every Form.
For many years physicians have experi
mented in vain, seeking a remedy which
would effectually cure piles nnd other rectal
troubles, without reporting to n surgical oper
ation. Many remedies were found to give
temporary relief, but none could be depended
upon to make a lasting, satisfactory cure.
Within a recent period, however, anew
remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure, has been re
peatedly tested in hundreds of cases and with
highly satisfactory results.
The first effect of the Pyramid Pile Cure is
to instantly remove the pain nnd irritation
generally present and from that time on the
cure rapidly progresses and before the patient
is hardly aware of it he is entirely cured.
The remedy seems to act directly on the
nerves and blood vesslcs of the parts affected
as it comes into direct contact with them and
sets up a healthy action, which in a perfectly
natural way brings the parts to their normal
condition.
The remedy decs its work without any
pain or inconvenience to the sufferer and is
justly considered one of the most meritorious
discoveries of modern medicine.
Piles is one of the most annoyingand often
times dangerous diseases with which humanity
is afflicted. If neglected it frequently develops
into fistula or some equally fatal or incurable
trouble, whereas by the timely use of this
simple but effective remedy no one need sutler
a single day from any form of piles unless
they want to.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is peifectly harm
less, containing uo mineral poisons and is also
very reasonable in price, costing but 50 cents
a package. It is so'd in drug stores every
where. The manufacturers of the remedy
arc the Pyramid Drug Co., of Marshall, Mich.,
who have placed this excellent preparation
before the public only after giving it thorough
and repeated tests' in the hands of reputable
physicians. The results in hundreds of cases
have convinced us that it will not disappoint
you.

SPAIN'S UN'KltaKTIC ll'UI'IT.
8I10 Nottlior Doslros Nor Font's Wnr
With tho United Stntos.
London, March 20. Tho Madrid cor
respondent of The Daily Mall elves
a version of the negotiations between
United States Minister Woodford and
the Spanish cabinet last week which
sounds rather warlike. He says:
"The note which General Woodford
presented on Wednesday was of a com
mlnatory nature. It demanded that
Spain put an end to the war In Cuba
Immediately, tviapltulatlng the dam
age done to American Interests, and
further hinting that the war was a
danger to the public health of the
United States, the continual smuggling
between the coast of Cuba and Florida
being tho means of conveying yellow
fever.
"Spain's reply was energetic. It de
clared that the war would have been
ended long ago but for the material
and moral help and support the rebels
were continually receiving from the
United States. The Spanish note com
plained of tho policy followed by the
United States In demanding from Spain
the termination of a war which the
United States Is virtually maintaining
by the presence of a squadron In the
neighborhood of Cuba, and by organiza
tion succor for the reconcentrados In
a manner that would be offensive to
any nation, as well as by keeping In
Havana a consul who is publicly tho
agent and representative of the rebels.
"Public opinion rejects all Idea of
yielding, and apparently neither de
sires nor fears war with the United
States. Yet Spain knows that she Is
confronted with the most serious con
flict she has had to face since the
Napoleonic wars. There Is an ominous
absence of excitement among the peo
ple, whose one topic Is the possibility
of war. It is the calm before a storm,
which will break when tho American
ultimatum comes."

Cincinnati, March 29. Until the
weather become settled there can be
no reliable prediction In regard to the
flood In the Ohio, llut for the rain
which began about 2 o'clock yesterday
morning In tho Ohio valley the river
here would not have reached 00 feet.
Last nlcht rain was reported from
Portsmouth to Pnrkersburi;. Never
theless the Ohio Is falling at all point
above here.
The swell that brought the Ohio to CI
feet here came from the big Miami
below, the little Miami above nnd from
the hillside torrents on both banks of
the river further up stream. From 5
to 8 o'clock lust evening the river was
stntlonnry. Since then It has risen
one-tenth of a foot hourly nnjl nt mid
night was CI 3-10 feet. What It will
run up to depends wholly on whether
or not there will be additional rainfall
In tho Ohio valley.
The condition of the people exiled
from homes by water Is the same as
yesterday. The only difference In the
Hooded districts from that reoorted
yesterday is that the water is nearly
two feet deeper. It has reached the
foot of the hill nearly everywhere, so
that to extend Its Invasion it will have
to rise relatively much higher. Steam
boat navigation down the river con-1
tlnues without Interruption. If there
is no more rainfall a rapid decline in
the river will folow.
Itlvcr pirates are reaping a harvest.

Twenty Thousand Acres Submorced.
Hundreds of Fninlllos Ilestltute.
Sullivan, Ind., March 20. The levee
on the Wabash river went out last
night with a break of 100 feet, entail
ing a loss of $100,000. Twenty thou
sand acres of land are overflowed and
hundreds of families are rendered
homeless and destitute. Citizens are
responding for miles around In their
efforts to remove families and stock.
Hundreds of cattle and horses are
hemmed In. The levee Is 11 miles long,
and was built at a cost of $80,000. Every
effort Is being made to rescue the fam
ilies from their submerged homes. It
Is feared that many people who were
probably slow to take warning will
meet death In the flood. A dispatch
from Emerson says that 12,000 bushels
of corn and C3 hogs were swept away.
An Osgood special says: The Wa
bash reached 22.7 feet yesterday, this
being the highest ever known, and Is
still rising. The levees below the city,
which have hitherto stood the pressure,
gave way yesterday afternoon and the
lowlands of Lawrence county, already
Inundated by tho overflow, will soon
be a sea. The suffering and loss of
property will bo great. The lowlands
of Upper Vlncennes and Decker town
ships are submerged by the White
river. The steamer Owensboro left for
Beal with a relief party last evening.
Three hundred people are waterbound
and destitute.

It Is admitted that the British policy

the concessions made to Russia and
Germany. It Is added: "The only

suit, obtain equal advantages with the

New York. M.neli 29. Tho familiar
spectacle was ptesented on the Stork
Exchange yesterday of a violent reac
tion upon the culmination of an event
which has been long anticipated and
discounted. The facts were that the
findings of the Maine board of lnqulr
wore ptesented lo congress and were
proved to be exactly as foreshadowed
In the public newB for many days past.
That Is to say, the Maine Is found to
have been blown up by a submarine
mine. Ever since the morning after the
explosion the stock market has been
depressed by the constant dread that
this report wnuld be formulated by
constituted officials of the United
States. The speoutative public as
sumed that such an allegation would
necessitate a rupture between the
United States and Spain, and a conse
quent damage lo values of all securi
ties, which It was attempted to meas
ure by a constant decline In prices
since the date of the explosion, al
most up to the present time.
Yet the actual publication of the re
port resulted In a rebound. In prices,
which, at the high point m the day,
had wiped out a large proportion of
the Ioshps which have occurred since
the explosion In the Havana harbor.
This was brought about by the move
ment of the bear traders to take their
profits. Having been Industriously
selling stocks for Weeks In anticipation
of the harm to values to be done by the
Maine report, they were warned by the
Imminence of the actual publication
that the lowest prices to be looked for
on that account had been readied, and
they therefore set about to buy rAcka
to fill their contracts. The resultnBs
a scramble by the shorts which rea&
ed the proportionsof a bear panlCN
during the day, and sent prices sky
ward. Closing prices, however, were
by no means the highest.
Unlesi the

suffer from headaches, loss of appetite, loss
of sleep, lassitude in the morning, drowsi
ness during the day and a general "out-of-sorts"
feeling. If these conditions ate
neglected, almost any serious malady may
be the result, frequently It is some nerv
ous disorder or dread consumption. Dr.
Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best medicine for hard-working men. It
gives edge to the appetite, makes digestion
and assimilation perfect, invigorates the
liver and purifies and enriches the blood.
It is the great blood -maker and flesh
builder. It cures gS per cent, of all cases
of chronic or lingering, bronchial, throat
and lung affection'!.
All too frequentH death dogs the foot

for disorders of this nature. It is Dr.
I'ierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts di

nakitig them strong, healthy and vigorous.
It fits for wifehood and motherhood.
They are sold at all medicine stores.
During early childhood death lurks in
every corner for these fragile innocents.
The mother can only protect her babes by
acquiring some practical medical knowl

Adviser imparts this knowledge. For a
