May 2--Charias Hiram Hyde, the city chamberlain, appeared in court thia afternoon and pleaded not guilty to an indictment charging bribery. The offense charged is punishable by im prisonment for not more than ten years or a fine of not more than $5,009. or both. Bail of $7,500 was given. Samuel Unter myer, Chamberlain's counsel, asked for an early trial, which District Attor ney Whitman promised. | Before his appointment. Chamberlain Hyde was the Law partner of Mayor Gay nor. During Hyde's absence In the south the Carnegie Trust company, in which .. the city was a heavy depositor, went down and a storm of criticism rose against him. It did not shake the may or's loyalty and Mr. Gaynor came to his , defend with a public statement. Investigation of the Carnegie Trust ■ company brought out a batch of indict ments against those controlling its as- h fairs, who also are said to have boasted * of their friendship with Hyde. Various city depositories were shown to have made loans to the Carnegie, directly be fore or after they received city depos its, and the prosecution will attempt to prove that the promise of these depos- t its was used to force loans to the totter- I tog Carnegie. K Chamberlain Hyde said today: “No official act of mine has been In- - fluenced by any improper motive. It has taken two months to indict me be fore a body that does not hear any de- I sense or even explanation I have no doubt of the outcome and my complete exoneration and I shall endeavor to await tt with patience." # Tennessee Insurgents Move to Pensacola, Fla. t PENSACOLA.

SAMUELS ORIGINATES j PECULIAR METHOD OF TREATMENT His Phenomenal Success Causes Enmity of Doctors ARRESTED MANY TIMES But Acquitted by Juries and Judges and Permitted to Continue in a Work That He Alone Can Do, As He Is the Only Man in the • World Using His System— Patients Make Startling Statements of His Successful Method of Treating Consumption, Bright’s Disease, Kidney Trouble, Blindness, Fits, Catarrh, Heart Dis ease, Cataracts, Nervous Prostration, Dropsy, Hay Fever and Many Other Diseases That Baffle the Skill of the Ordinary Physician. WICHITA, Kas.—The almost miracu lous cure of hopeless invalids made by Professor Samuels, of Wichita, Kas., have been of such a startling chart.cter that they have aroused widespread won der, admiration and curiosity. Time and again he has taken cases pronounced hopelessly incurable by the medical pro fession and restored the patients to health in a most phenomenal manner. There is considerable mystery attach ed to Professor Samuels’ method of ac complishing these marvels, and it is known that he does not use the drastic drugs and medicines that doctors depend upon. And it is a matter of proof that with the system this discovery gives him, he has made the blind see and the lame walk. He has revived the flicker ing spark of life in bodies on the very verge of the grave, and restored to health men and women given up to die by doctors and specialists. Professor Samuels came Into note several years ago by his almost miracu lous cure of “Blind Joe,” of Topeka, Kas., who was -’ell known In that city, having sold peanuts and popcorn on the streets there for years. He had been blind for ten years and had exhausted all the means in his power to be cured, but had given up In despair until he fell into the hands of Professor Samuels, who effected a cure. Professor Samuels has been arrested many times for practicing his system without having a diploma. On being in terviewed a few days ago, relative to his many arrests. Professor Samuels said: “Yes, I have been errested many times for practicing without a license, but in no case have I been convicted. Natu rally, the medical profession are jealous of my success, and are fighting me most of the time, but how are they going to convict me? Do you suppose any jury, when my patients come into court, as they did at Alva, Okla., Newkirk, Okla., Ponca City, Okla., and other towns, and tell how they have been cured of all manner of trouble, do you suppose for a minute that any jury hearing these peo ple and seeing with their own eyes what has been accomplished, is going to con vict me? My trial at Alva was before a very able judge, Jesse J, Dunn, who Is now chief justice of the state of Ok lahoma; after hearing the evidence for and against me I was acquitted. At Newkirk I was tried before Judge Haus ley, a very able judge. Judge Brown, a noted lawyer, was the prosecuting at torney, and fought the case very hard, but I was acquitted. These persecutions were brought because I have no license. Being the originator and only ‘practition er of my system of healing, how am I to have a diploma? I can’t issue it to myself, and the medical fraternity, trot ting along in the same harness for half a century, too blind to accept my dis covery, which accomplishes actual re sults, makes it impossible for me to pro cure a license as a representative of any of the recognized schools. So what am I to do but to proceed in my own way and accomplish results that astound hu manity?” The professor here showed a reprint from the court records showing the proof of his assertions that the court had not convicted him. Professor Samuels is a remarkable man. Bright, alert, progressive, and. al though 60, he is straight and active, and gives one the impression that he is much younger. He talks with such an earnest conviction and enthusiasm of his work that the listener must believe him and believe in his work. "What is the nature of your treat ment?” was the next question. "That is the secret that has taken many years of my life to accomplish. I can only say that my results are ob tained treating diseases by dropping a colorless liquid, which I prepare, into the eye. Strange as it may seem, so-called Incurable cases of consumption, Bright’s disease, dropsy, epileptic fits, nervous prostration, are treated in this appar ently miraculous way. My system is based absolutely on scientific principles. The eye is the wihdow of the soul. I have evolved a system of treating other bodily ills based on the relation of the eye to the system as a whole. This may seem strange, but here are the proofs.” Thereupon the professor placed be fore his Interviewer his "Message of Facts," affidavits and letters in great numbed, many of them from responsi ble and well known people, all bearing on his statements. The wife of P. F. Bradley, living at Remus, Mich., R. R- No. 4, had what was pronounced to be a bad case of Bright’s disease. Doctors were unable to give her any relief. She gradually grew worse until her friends considered there was little hope for her. In a recent let ter to Prof. Samuels, Mr. Bradley states as follows: "I consider her entirely cured of this dreadful malady, and can say to friends desiring to benefit themselves in any thing of this kind, they would do well to consult you, and we are ready and will ing at any time to testify to your ability to do what you claim to do, so with heartfelt thanks for the great good you have done for her, I will close by writ ing myself, your obedient servant.” L. H. Helms, living at Maryville, Mo., R. R. No. 3., had what was pronounced to be a bad case of tuberculosis and also teregium. Physicians were unable to do anything for him, and when almost ready to give up in despair, he began taking treatment of Prof. Samuels.
