Godspeed and prayers of the international
headquarters.
For days and nights these three mediators
employed every possible argument, appeal
and entreaty to beseech the commanders to
visit England Their efforts were ably sup
ported by long cablegrams from the general,
and correspondence from international head
quarters. But, to our great and irreparable
sorrow. they failed, and the commanders re-
tired last Friday morning from the direction
of affairs.
AS neither the commandment nor the field
commander nor myself possess the power to
accept your commanders resignation, we at
once disowned responsibility for the COM
manders step, communicating the facts to
international headquarters, and threw our
selves, with the overwhelming burden Great
ed by the sad event, upon the never-failing
stronghold of glorious army-the pres
and the promise of help of Jehovah.
1t is needless for me to tell YOU dear COM
rades, that the whole circumstances will at
once become the subject of investigation on
the part of the international headquarters.
The action of the commanders, well as
our own, will be brought before the general
and / am authorized to state that his verdict
upon the circumstances will be commune

Albius Falkenburg. The star witness
in this, as in all the preliminary hear
ings, was Fireman Carl Olsen, whose
testimony varied slightly from previous
statements made before the United
States commissioner Olsen testified:
THE Horsa left Philadelphia on Sat
urday evening, Nov. 8, at half past 6
o'clock presumably to go to Port San
Antonio. She carried two small boats
more than her complement The Horsa
was anchored fully two hours off Bar
negat. There were number of boxes
and thirty-eight men transferred from
the lighter to the Horsa. The boxes
were of different sizes. The large ones
were broken on the trip and small ones
taken out of them. These contained
guns and swords, which were given to
the strange men," Olsen then narrated
how the name of the vessel had been
painted off the side of the steamer and
a new coat OF paint put on the smoke
stack.
On cross-examination he admitted
that it was usual for ships tunnels to
be painted quite frequently. In fur
thef answering Capt. Ker, Olsen said:
There was small cannon on board
with which the men practiced. l am
now living up in Richmond. My board
is being paid by the Spanish govern
ment, believe. When / was a fireman

Oscar Swinsen, corroborated the
other witnesses about taking on board
men and arms The court then
adjourned until tomorrow.
