the Worshipers.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-Louis De-
wees, a son of Assistant Attorney f. P. De-
wees is a prisoner at the First precinct
station. His offense is somewhat SINH
lar to that which landed Har-
ry Martin, Senator Vance's stepson,
behind the bars. 1t was a church, how
ever, and not at the White House. into
which Devices had intruded. The congre-
CATION of st. Matthews was shocked at its
services by Devices springing up the altar
steps, throwing mis- umbrella and overcoat
on the table, and shouting:
81 am a man and a disciple of Jesus
Christ The way to love God"
AT this point several men surrounded the
young man, and after all exceedingly des-
perate struggle forced him into the sacrIsty.
Meantime, however, many of the wor-
shippers, the majority OF them women,
alarmed by the invasion of what
they took to be lunatic, rushed
madly for the street door, while the thor
oughly frightened altar boys blew out the
lighted candles they carried and hurried pell
nell to the street. Father Kerbisck finally
succeeded in Quelling the panic, however.
The offender was handed over TO a police
man and the services proceeded. Mr..
Devices friends say that his mind has grown
unbalanced because of severe attack of
malarial fever. His condition was some
what improved to-day, and when he comes
to his senses he will no doubt regret his es-
capade as sincerely as did Martin his.

B0ETTICHER TO RETIRE.
THE GUELPH FUND SCANDAL TOO MUCH
FOR THE MINISTER.

He Is Still Honored by the Emperor, How
ever, Who Holds Him in Estecm-Bis.
marck Said to Have Been Outwitted-
Future Use of the Fund.
rBY DUNLAP's CABLE coMPANYl
berlin, March 29-Mlnister Won Boet-
ticher is about to take leave of absence and
will be away till autumn, for the sake of his
health. He will then resign, owing to the
recent unpleasantness arising from the
supposed borrowings from the Guelph fund.
Nobody in Germany, except few extreme
radicals like Herr Richter. believes he ever
received $4,000 marks out of the Guelph
fund, but the situation is SO painful that it
can hardly fail to lead to his resignation.
That the Emperor and Caprivi did not ac-
cept Boetticher's offer 10 retire a fortnight
ago is due, partly to their wish to show the
world that the esteem in which they hold
the Minister remains unaltered, and partly
to their aversion to even the appearance OF
lending any assistance to private intrlgues
against him.
The affair has stirred up such deep irrita-
tion all over Germany that the application
of the interest, as well as the administration
OF the Guelph fund, will hereafter be changed
The Government is already preparing bill on
the subject for the Prussian Landtag There
is, however no foundation for the assertion
that the fund is to be handed over TO the Duke
of Cumberland The latter's father, King
George, of Hanover, himself determined, in
accord with Prussia, that the fund should be
entailed and kept in public place of deposit
in Prussia that is under the care of Prus-
sian law court, and that the interest only
should be paid to his heirs
Owing to The subsequent sequestration of the
fund this way of disposing OF the interest has
not yet been carried out. 1t is not even now
publicly known where the fund is kept and the
conjectures on this point are too vague to be
worth reproduction. There are curious ru-
mors current as to the past application OF one
interest of the fund. According to one story,
eX-chlef of the secret political police, on the
occasion. received a douceur of $1,000 marks
(f25O0) from this source, but this would ac-
count for mere trifie of the amount which
Prussia has used from the fund for the past
quarter of a century. The annual interest
alone must be upward of fl00, 000
DIR. Won Boetticher and his wife have again
been entertained at dinner by the Emperor,
who bestowed upon them special marks of dis
tinction, and it now generally understood
that the dethroned Chancellor's latest attempt
10 reinstate himself by revenging himself upon
those who had abandoned his cause has proved
the worst failure of all the coups he has at
tempted.
