you paid me some money when you left,

ance soon after. The people here have
been kind to me, but nobody with 800

Coart.Msftial sits on HE Case ~ -.
Brooklyn Navy Y8rd.

Brooklyn. N. T.. May 13.-The court
martial which was called together last
Monday night to investigate the charges
against Medical Inspector Edward Ker-
sinner, feet surgeon Of the North At
lantic squadron. reconvened at the nevy
yeard today. Rear Admiral John G.
Walker presided. At the conclusion
of the reading of the history of the case
DIR. Kershner stood up and pleaded not
guilty to all the charges and specifica-
tons. Lieutenant Lancheimer next
read the report Of Admiral Meade in
reference to the refusal Of DR.. Kersh.
ner to send medical assistance to the
bark Nova Scotia and announced his
intention Of submitting as evidence
report of the inquiry held on board the
United States cruiser New York or
April 6. but Mr.. Choate objected to this
being submitted. The objection was
sustained. This was regarded as a big
advantage to Kershner's lawyers
The first witness was Lieutenant H
the court of inquiry on board the New
York. He testified to the order OF the
admiral and read the newspaper re-
ports Of the refusal Of n. Kershner tc
sen assistance to the bark and and the
correspondence which the doctor is
accused Of making public.
d. kershner was sworn as witness
OcAOIC AAdI Gull. nc Soui0 AoS AC'
member the exact language DR.. kersh-
ner used, but he remembered the sub
stance. He looked at the record which
he had written at that time. Lieuten-
ant Lancheimer asked him If it was
true record Of the proceedings, but
Mr.. Choate jumped to his feet and pro-
tested. Mr.. Hunsdale insisted that the
record was not a true and correct re-
port Of the full proceedings and until
the witness had exhausted his rec0llec-
lions of the facts. he should not be per-
mitted to refresh his memory from his
reports.
Lieutenant Lancheimer got very an
cry and exclaimed: This is my witness
and I object to the defense laying or.
the line of the prosecution"
The objection was overruled and
Lieutenant Huse then read several ques
tons put to DR.. kershner at the court
of inquiry and his answers as to how
the correspondence came into possess
ion of the press. DR.. kershner denied
having any knowledge Of the manner
in which the facts leaked out.
The witness said that he could not
recollect any questions which he asked
the doctor but everything that was on
the record was correct. He said that
DR.. Kershner admitted that he had writ
ten home saying that he was in some
kind of trouble.
The court then adjourned until Mon
day.

NOT A WORD OF TRUTH IN II.
So do Treasurer AthertOn's Friends De-
nounce the Enrolling Clerk Story.

So do Treasurer AthefcO0'0 Ff10n00 Do
nounce the Enrolling Clerk Story.
Topeka. Kan. May 13.@The story that
State Treasurer Anterior had made in
: decente proposals to a young girl dur.
ing the session of the last legislature
turns out to be the work Of his enc
mics. Governor Morrill, said today:
1T is true that I heard this story
about Mr.. Atherton, and it is also true
that repeated it to ex-Lieutenant Gov
shortly after I had first heard what
purported to be the details Of the case.
I talked with him about as friend,
whose advice I valued, not for publi
cation, for I was shocked beyond ex.
preston and felt that something ought
to be done in the premises. This was
along in the early part of the session
Of the legislature 1 set on foot an in
veStigation of the matter, and very
shortly afterward Lieutenant Cover.
nor Troutman and others reported to
me that there was absolutely no truth
in the charge against Mr.. Anterior:
that it had been set af1oat by his enc
mics, without even the shadow of q
basis. and that there was no such girl
dropped 1t right there as canard and
have since heard nothing of the story
until it appeared in the Hiawatha
World and the Atchison Champion"
The following statement was prepar-
ed by Attorney General Dawes for pub
LEGATION: I'm January last there was
a rumor about the senate house to the
effect that some girl had been insulted
and that State Treasurer Atherton was
the guilty man. Governor Morrill, and
I talked the rumor over and it was
agreed that the truth or falsity Of the
charge should be hunted down, and that
If found to be true, action should be
taken against Atherton. I made dill
gent search and inquiry into the mat
ter and could find no one who knew
anything about it. After investigating
the matter thoroughly I came to the
conclusion that it was simply rumor
without one shadow of foundation to
rest upon.
Later developments have convinced
me that it was wicked, malicious lie,
manufactured out Of whole cloth by
some enemy Of the present administra-
ton. Judge Atherton's friends need
feel no uneasiness. He is all right. He
is conducting his office in first-class
manner. He is always at his post of
duty and is at all times a gentleman
in the full sense Of the word. When
the people learn that these damaging
stories have been manufactured by po-
litical scandal mongers, they will re-
sent it as they should.
mot many men would have borne
this abuse as patiently as Judge Ather-
ton. Amidst it all he has gone on at
tending to the duties of his Office, when
many man would have been out with
forbearance proves him to be a man
among men. It is time to stop throw
ing mud at Judge Atherton.

DENIED BY SENIOR DE LONE.
Not Enough Cuban Rebels in One Place to
Bring on n Battle.

Bring u Battle.
Washington, May 13.-Minister Du-
puy de LONE of Spain says the Tampa
story as to a bloody battle in which
900 or more Spanish troops were
slaughtered is absurd. He does not re-
gard a denial necessary, but he ex-
presses surprise that the public should
be mis1ed into accrediting a tragedy.
which, if true. would be Of such magni-
tude as to be known by the whole
world. The minister points out that
such a great engagement would not
have escaped the attention Of the Amer
lean correspondents on the ground. He
says the reports of the telegraph wires
being cut are untrue. The wires are in
full use and there is no restriction on
communicating full information to the
outside world.
The Spanish government konws of
no such battle, nor has word of 1t
reached the minister, as he says would
be the case il such a great engage
ment had occurred. Senior Dupuy de
LONE says that there can be no battles.
as there Is no enemy other than small
scattered bands who are carrying on
guerrilla or swamp warfare.

ton showed that it's circular applied
not to the regular summer tourist bus

were taken into consideration the COM
mission was not excessive at al. It
agreed moreover to make certain small
concessions to the other roads in the
manner of handling it's excursions to
Colorado, which effectually settled the
trouble and there will now be no sit
ting of western roads on the summer
tourist rates.

TO TREAT OF CLAIMS.
COMMISSION WILL CONSIDER
GRIEVANCES OF SEALERS,
Arms Sometimes Concealed instead Of
"Sealed."--At Other Times Innocent
Apparatus is Seized and Confsticated-
Misrepresentation Due to Confusion.

Washington, May 13.-An agreement
has been effected between the United
states and Great Britain in which Oc-
tober is set as the time or the assembl-
ng at Washington Of a commission to
negotiate treaty as to claims of seal
ers on account of Boring sea seizures,
Delegates will come from Canada to
meet the authorities here.
The reports coming from Victoria
that the British government had vacat-
ed the sealing regulations because Of
the non-payment by the United States
Of the $425, 900 claimed for seizures, is
said to be due to Misrepresentation. In
view Of the fact that the commission
will meet in October to consider these
seizures, there would be, it is stated,
no present ground Of complaint for non
payment. However, it is learned that
the report from Victoria. B. c.. is bas-
ed on a misunderstanding Of the word
sealing" which does not apply to the
seal animals but to the locks or seals
by which implements used in sealing
are locked UP during the closed season.
From authoritive sources the SUBJ
stantial features Of the text Of the
new British regulations have been Sc
cured. Last year rule was made that
sealers could 60 to Japan or other pro-
ximate territory where British con-
sui or other officer would seal up the
ammunition, guns, etc., used in sealing.
Vessels having arms thus sealed up
could remain in Boring sea during the
closed season.
NO SEARCH OR SEIZURE.
They were not subject o search or
seizure, as the seal on their arms was
guarantee that they were not cap
turing fur-bearing animals. But the
British admiralty has found that this
rule is impracticable. In one case
ship master concealed arms and used
them in closed season, although he had
another set of arms sealed up as
guarantee against inspection. In anther
case, apparatus used for life saving
was seized under the impression that 1t
was for killing seals. Owing to these
objections the British authorities have
determined to abolish this one rule but
not all of them and notice to that effect
has been given The effect has been to
make it unnecessary for vessels to go
to Japan or elsewhere and have their
arms sealed up during the closed sea-
son. It is said, however, that this will
not permit British ships to poach dur
ing the closed season. The law against
this is in the British statute books in
the same words as adopted by the
Paris court Of arbitration. The abOli-
ton Of the rule will not, it is said, per-
int the violation of the law against
the use of arms, ETC., in the closed sea-
son. British naval vessels will patrol
the sea as usual, and the list of these
patrol ships is daily expected.
