Epecial Dispatch to The Call, NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—Since Rev. Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst voiced his bellef in telepathy he has received many letters from persons who agree with his views and some of the Instances of ‘“‘thought transference”” which they recite are in the realm of the wonderful. ““One of these is most peculiar,” said he to The Call correspondent to-night. “A gentleman told me that one night he had a very vivid dream in which he thought he had broken off one of his teeth. So much did it impress him that he remem- bered it in the morning and the first thing he wid was to feel in his mouth to see it the tooth was gone. It was in its | place, however, but before the day had passed he received word from his son, who was In Washington, saying he had broken a tooth while he was at dinner and he in- closed the part which had been broken off. It was the same identical tooth which the father in his dream believed he had lost.” Dr. Parkhurst sald In a sermon re- cently: “When we had a thought years ago which we wanted to convey to a friend in Europe we put it aboard a steamer in the form of a letter. Then, thanks to Cyrus Fleld, who was & member of my church, a fine electric line was substi- tuted for the steamer and now Marconi WEDNESDAY, | charges to-day, | ment. is thinking across the ocean by aid of a mediunt a million times finer than even | wire. By and by, probably, we shall be able to think across the water without going to the trouble and expense of set- ting up apparatus at even short -ends of the route. For telepathy is already a demonstrable fact when exercised by cer- | tain individuals. o { “There can be no doubt that two per- | sons or even a greater number may com- | municatet thought to one another without | any material medium. From all we know | now such communication is limited to short distances, but that i§ no reason vhy the distance should not be increased. | 'he fact that thought may be commu- nicated from one brain to another with- out material connection is a vital fact to consider. Two men in the same room may communicate their thoughts to each other by telepathy, or whatever you may call it. This is well known, as is the fact that longer distances have been covered in the same way. How long it yill be be- fore we will be able to think across great distances is a mere matter of specula- tion at present and great minds are giv- ing much attention to the question.” | MOURNERS MEET WITH AGCIDENT Driver Joseph Christen Swerves His Horses Into Fence. | | | | | Four women and a driver had a narrow | escape from death while returning home | from the funeral of Miss Rose Early, | which was held yesterday morning at Holy Cross Cemetery. ! | On returning from the cemetery the | cortege had reached the hill this side of | the seven-mile post on the old county | of La Guaira and Puerto Cabello as a | suarantee for the payment of foreign | | In the blockade some doubt is expressed road and was proceeding down the steep | grade, when suddenly a rein broke at-| tached to one of the horses driven by | Joseph Christen.

T0 DENY T ALL Lawyer Roberts Tells of Interview With the Congressman. bt s sl ol Says He Was Eager to Re- tract His Accusation of Bribery. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—When the House Committee on Naval Affairs re- sumed the investigation of the bribery Representative Lessler | took the stand and denied the statements made yesterday by Philip Doblin. I desire to deny,” he said at the out- set of his detajled statement, “‘absolutely and unequivocally as false the statement made by the witness Doblin here yes- ! terday as to any collusive scheme or any | of the substantial details sworn to by him here, and desire to reiterate that the facts as originally told by me are true.” Attorney Roberts made the following statement to the committee: Mr. Chairman, I have learned during the re- o that a wrong impression has gone out, arlsing from the incident alluded to by Lessler in his examination of a meeting he had with me (in Statuary Hall). 1 € fully my recollection of the entire tri mot with any Intent or purpose of Lessler or prejudicing him in the minds committee, but merely that it should be in the record. On the forenoon of January 21, while I was golng through Statuary Hall on the way to my committes room I met Lessler going in \hed opposite direction, He spoke to me and My God, I can- ‘an't we stop this thing? not stand it; it is killing me."" AGREES TO A RETRACTION. The thing he referred to was the proposed investigation which we had authorized to be made by the sub-committee. I sald to him that the investigation was not of my seeking and I had no benefit to gain by pressing it. So far as I personally wag concerned, I did not care whether it went on or stopped; that there were other parties besides myseif in this mat- ter. The statement having gone out to the country that the Holland Submarine Company had attempted to influence his action by the offer of money—and I did not know whether the Holland people would be willing to have the thing smothered—that phase of the ques- tion would have to be considered. Mr, Lessler thereupon volunteered, wi!huu( any suggestion from me—it came from him— that he would make any statement regarding the matter that was thought to be fair and reasonable. He said that when he made his first statement In the committee he did not intend to injure the Holland people and I re- marked to him that If he did not Intend to | injure those people the only thing he could | do, as an honest and upright gentleman, was to make some such statement. He sald if I had one prepared he would sign it. He said | further that he would not sign such a state- ment to be published, I sald to him that I did not suppose the Holland people would cars | to publish any such statement: that I did not think they would make any use of it what- ever, unless thelr Interests were to be jeop- ardized by the use of his original statement | and then in self-defense they would be enabled to use any statement that he might make. On that understanding he had me make the state- LESSLER REFUSES, TO SIGN. The statement I had prepared 1 submitted to Lessler in this room the next Monday. It was the morning when the sub-committee was to report to the full committee and I handed Lessler the paper. At this point Roberts produced the let- ter, which was to the effect that it was not Lessler's intention to connect the Holland Company directly or indirectly with an offer of a bribe. “'Mr. Lessler,"” he said, “‘declined to sign it because it was addressed to the Hol- land Company.” Wheeler interrogated Roberts as to his connection with the Holland Company, finally asking: “Have you not been a very ardent, | avowed and aggressive adherent of the Holland submarine boat proposition?". “Yes, 1 have been and so I have avowed.” | Lessler was recalled and corroborated | what Roberts had stated. “It is substantially true,’ he sald. “I | do not remember all the details. I did | not read the letter as I stated. I did not | refer to the question to Mr. Nicholl, who | seemed to know all about it. I did meet | Mr. Roberts in Statuary Hall. Whether | I sald: ‘Oh, my God,’ and the rest of it I do not remember. 1 did say to Mr. | Roberts that I would like to have the thing stopped, and, just as he stated, voluntarily made him the proposition that if, in his judgment as the advocate here | of the Holland torpedo-boat, I should | sign the statement showing I had made no accusations of anything between them | I would do so.” The committee then went into executive session. Patterson’s Anti-Trust Bill. WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.—Representa- tive Patterson of Tennessee to-day intro- duced an anti-trust bill. It seeks to ac-| ccmplish the regulation of trusts through the agency of the bureau of corporations in the proposed Department of Com- merce. e o Herran Files Credentials.

TOO GREAT EXPENSE Not the Reason. It :s not because Pyramid Pile Cure is | . so cxpensive that many people decline to give it a trial, but because they find it too great a tax on their credulity te believe that the published letters bearing testi- | mony to the merit of this remedy are genuine and bona fide; especially to those | who have realized the suffering incident to piles is it incredible that any one who has been afllicted twenty-five and thirty years with the worst forms of protrud- ing and bleeding piles should be cured by the application of a simple remedy, when their physiclan has assured them that the only rellef is in a surgical opera- tion. This is rightfully viewed with dread by all those afllicted, as it means at the least a great shock to the nervous sys- tem, with more than a possibility of utter collapse and death; in the majority . of cases, too, there is a return of the com- plaint, owing to the fact that the cause is not removed. The 'proprietors of the Pyramid Pile Cure agree to forfeit one thousand dol- lars to any one who will show a single published testimonfal to be not genuine and unsolicited; this latter feature is most gratifying, inasmuch as these let- ters are written solely out of gratitude, afflicted as the writers have been may learn that relief is at hand, at a compar- atively trifling expense.

I have been in bed for two weeks at a time. I have not suffered in the least for over a year, and I used only three fifty-cent boxes of Pyramid Pile Cure. ; “I advise every person suffering with this distressing and painful complaint to give this remedy a trial.
