G. A. R. MEN INDIGNANT.
CONSIDER THE ACTION TOWARD
SUMNER POST AN AFFRONT.

The Refusal OF the Columbus Committee
to Invite the Coiorcd Post TO Parade
Leads TO the Withdrawal OF DUPONT
What Prominent Veterans Say.
The refusal of an invitation to Charles
Sumner Post. Nod. G. A. r., colored, 20
takepart in the Columbus Day parade bids
fair TO result In much trouble TO the
committee. Much dissatisfaction is man
ifested by the g. A. II. men throughout
the city.
On Thursday night Du Pont Post, No.

tional Junior Vice Commander Peter B.
Ayars thus explains the action:
Sumner Post is a part of the Grand
Army The Grand Army was invited
to participate In the parade. We received
information that the influence brought
TO bear on the committee having the
celebration In charge was from organiza-
tions objecting TO Sumner Post solely be.
cause the post consisted Of colored
people. Colored posts have been held in
as high esteem In the Grand Army as
any other posts and we considered this
objection to part Of the organization as
an aifront on all
''rhe Catholic societies applauded tn,
motion to extend an invitation 60 tn,
colored post and the rumor that they In
huenced the committees action we havi
found TO be untrue. There is stronl
probability, / think, that other post
will also withdraw"
Mr. Ayars added while he disclaime,
any personal part in the action of Du
Pont post, that the Grand Army men Eel
very keenly over the matter as they ha,
made arrangements for pretentious dis
play. They had heard that Sumner pos
had been assigned to attend the flag rails
ing ceremonies at the various coloreI
schools on Columbus day and that the,
considered a glaring Inconsistency be
cause, II the colored post was not goo,
enough to parade il was not good enougl
to take part in any of the exercises.
Professor NJ. We'll. past commander o
U. S. Grand post, stated this mornin
that 10 was very doubtful that his DOS

to show cause why peremptory writ Of
mandamus should not be issued was
granted by Justice Edwards and was re-

Justice Mayham on Tuesday last. He de-
clined to hear it on the ground that Jus

order and should hear~the case.
Mr.. Chase presented the same papers
as were presented to Judge Furman at
Kingston, reciting that Mr.. Peck had
refused to allow public papers on file in
his Office and obtained under the seal Of
labor commissioner to be examined,
although the law strictly provided that
the papers on file in his Office were public
property. He therefore asked for a
peremptory writ Of mandamus to compel
the production of such documents.
Mr.. Meegan for Mr.. Peck presented
The affidavit as printed on Tuesday, in
which he states that the communicate ion
and letters upon which his report j:
based were never filed nor made a recor d

Not Commit Suicide.
[By Telegraph to the Evening Journal.l
WASHINGTON. Oct. 1.-Colonel w. H.
Canaday, ex-sergeant-at-arms of the
United States senate whose death oc
Cured last Tuesday, was buried yester-
day afternoon. The case has taken on
some mysterious features and the theory
S advanced that the colonel did not
commit suicide. An expert glazier says
the window in the room where the de-
ceased was first found bound to the door
was broken from the outside, and the
gentleman who cut him loose says he
had no idea that Canaday had tied the
cords himself. Other occupants of the
house state that they heard voices in the
room some time in the night.
These facts together with the personal
property the colonel was known to have
in his possession, notably two gold
watches, cannot be found and the other
fact deemed to be pertinent, that the
charred papers found on the floor of the
room. prove to be the remnants
of notes for money loaned by
him warrant his friends in asserting that
there was genuine burglary, and that
if the colonel did kill himself he was
driven to it by the consciousness that he
was uniustly suspected. J. c. Callahan
has been appointed collector by the court
to take possession of Colonel Canaday''
effects pending the appointment of al
administrator of the estate.
