To ABOLISH THE CAvALRY.-Accord-
ing to the Frcmdenblatt, Hamburg,
Germany is to do away with the caval-
ry branch of the service altogether.
1t is argued that the cavalry is him
drance rather than help to the army
Even as far back as 1870" says the
Femdenblatt, "lhe French cavalry
charges at Reichshofen, Sedan and
Mars la Tour were useless exhibitions
of heroism, as they did not prevent the
forward march of the Germans, whose
iufantry and artillery surmounted all
obstacles. 1t is also certain that with
the new rifles and artillery, the caval-
ry is really nothing but the raw mate,
rial for holocausts. Every saddle could
be emptied in two minutes, or within
the rush of a mile. 1t is, therefore,
probable that 10 per cent. OF the caval-
~ will be converted into infantrymen
or artillerists. The remainder, or the
majority of them, will become bicy-
clists. "-Translated for the Literary d.

Of Joseph Lechman, OF sol West one

over by cable car in Amsterdam
avenue, at One Hundred and Fifty
fourth street, at s35 O'Clock this morn
ing, and will probably die. Both his legs
ware almost entirely cut on, and his
body horribly mangled.
Oscar was on his way to school As
a wagon loaded with empty flour barrels
was going North. The lad waited for
the wagon to pass. The barrels, packed
up high on the wagon, prevented him
from seeing cable car l. approaching
from the north.
AS soon as the wagon passed. Oscar
sta rted behind It across the avenue. The
Cable car was running at rapid speed,
and the dash boad struck him. He was
rolled over several times by the car. He

DENVER. Col, March 16.-It is now
said to be Gov. Waite's idea to call
all the troops of the State to Denver
to-day. and on Saturday to renew his
attempt to install the new Police COM
m!ssioners and Fire Board in office.
The Governor at l1.45 last night, issued
the following proclamation:
All companies of the National Guard of Colorado
are hereby notified to be In readiness at the In
spection armory to respond to call to come to
Denver. which will be issued Friday of this
week. DAVID p. WAITE. Governor.
At 9 O'Clock this morning Gen. Nc
Cook, in command Of the United States
troops whose arrival effected last nights
truce, was in conference with the
Governor.
Gov. Waite's residence Is still sur
rounded by strong guard. as he is in
mortal fear of assassination.
Mean time the Federal troops continue
in camp at the Union Depot, and 1t is
possible that before the difficulty Is
settled, martial law will be declared.
The Governors pale face. last night.
told more eloquent!y than words Of the
strain through which he was passing.
He has received a dozen or more letters
threatening his life, and there is consid-
erable public feeling against him. Judge
Graham, whose order of injunction Gov.
Waite disregarded. says he will take no
move in the matter.
Judge Graham had enjoined the re-
Gently appointed members of the Fire
and Police Boards from taking their
seats, although they had been sworn in.
This action the Governor regarded as
an infringement upon his prerogatives.
and he accordingly ignored the injunc-
tion.
Counsel for the old Fire and Police
Boards claim they are in full sympathy
with the Supreme Court as to removals.
and that II a writ OF custer was served
on the old boards through the Court
they would vacate instanter. The ques-
tion, they say, is merely one Of process
by the Court or by the military.
The Governor ordered out the militia
contrary to advice of his counsel, and
prominent members OF the Chamber OF
Commerce. The militia officers were
asked to resign their commissions In
the interest OF peace, but they refused
and said they would obey orders.

FOUND DEAD IN HIS BED.
Gas Turned on In Herons Room
But Suicide Not suspected.

David Heron, thirty four years old, q
carpet-worker for Shepard Knapp, al
Thirteenth street and Sixth avenue, was
found dead In his room at 5Ot
West One Hundred and Sixty-first street
at l o'clock this morning.
Mrs. Farrell, from whom Heron hired
a room two weeks ago, was awakened
by strong odor of gas at 12.45. She
called her husband, who opened the door
of Heron's room and found him lying In
bed and the room filled with gas.
Attached to the gas Jet was a rubber
tube. which had been disconnected al
the other end from a small gas heater
the gas being turned on.
The theory OF suicide is discredited
by the Farells and by Thomas Angel
cousin OF Herons, who lives in a cot.
tage In the rear of the Farells. Mr.
Angel said that Heron was in the
Last night, he thinks, Heron heated
water as usual, and after disconnectine
the tube from the stove forgot to turr
off the gas. Heron, 1t is said, had losi
the sense Of smell some time ago, and
therefore did not discover that the gas
An old coat had been thrown in from
of the door to keep out the cold, as Mr.
Angel thinks. The door was not locked

PEDDLER'S QUEER SUICIDE.
Was stranRiinE Himself While in
an indianapolis Hospital.


INDIANAPOLIS, March 16-Clinton
Cooper, a peddler. died at the hospital
last night, and his death developed a
strange method OF self-destruction. He
was found III in his room and sent to
the hospital, where he was found TO be
In low state of vitality, but no APP
parent cause existed for II. He was con-
scious, but refused to talk, and he swal-
lowed medicine with great difficulty.
He got no relief from the treatment
and It soon became apparent that he
could live only a few hours. When taken
to the hospital he had IA handkerchief
tied loosely around his neck, and this
was removed by an attendant just be-
fore he died.
Underneath the handkerchief, and al.
most buried In his neck. was small
cord, and II dawned upon, the authorities
that he had been slowly dying from
strangulation ever since he was found
at his boarding-house. There Is nc
doubt that he tied the cord himself and
that he chose this method TO kill him
self.
