Digby Bell I'm ''The Midnight Bell"

D1gDy BeI HI II ne oiuDiGDJ BELL.
Few believe that Mr.. Digby Bell has
made an unfortunate choice in leaving
comic opera to go into Hoyt farce As the
comedy man OF a light opera he was, on the
several occasions that we all remember
quite an excellent success. He was gay anu
frivolous and full of facial oddities. and
vocal oddities. such as all good funny men
in comic uperf. must have, and often times
brought down the house.
As Deacon Tidd, In "A Midnight Bell"
which repeated at the National last night
Digby Bell is funny, OF course. His voice
is still with him, as is also his expressive
face. II mild criticism were ventured,
however, he is perhaps a little light weight
for the heavy man OF II Hoyt farce. That
is all.
They give a very good evenings enter
tainment, he and the others OF the company,
which includes Laura Joyce Bell The
plav is so well known from its many
visits here since Seabrooke first played
Deacon Tidd,' that comment on its very
HoyteSque humor is hardly necessary.

COMTES ALLEGED LETTERS
THEY CONTAIN BITTER WORDS
 AGAINST THE FRENCH.

Ono of Them Says "Frenchmcn Are Not
 Worthy of the Cartridges Intended to
 Kill Them"-The Comte Declares the
 Letters Are Forgerles by the Friends of
 Captain Dreyfus.
 Paris Nov. 2S.-The Figaro has caus- ed a sensation to-day in connection with the Dreyfus affair by publishing several letters purporting to be written by Comte Ferdinand Walsh Esterhazy, who has been accused by M. Scheurer- Kastner, one of the vice presidents or the senate, of being the author or the unsigned letter which led to the con- demnation of Dreyfus. In one of them, after expressing his intention to enter the Turkish service, Conte Esterhazy Is represented as saying, T shall not leave without having placed trick or my own on those amiable Frenchmen.'
 Other passages frustrating the charac- ter of the letters, follow: our coward ly and ignorant great chiefs will go once more to people German prisons. I should be perfectly happy if l were told I was to be killed tomorrow as a captain of Uhlans, sabering French men. I am capable of great things or crimes if that could avenge me. would not harm little dog,but l would have a hundred thousand Frenchmen killed with pleasure"
 Comte Esterhazy proceeds to say that "F'renchmen are not worthy of the cartridges intended to kill them," and he conjures up dream of festivity'' in the shape of the pillage of Paris by hundred thousand drunken soldiers.
 Interviewed by reporters to-day, as to the publications in the Figaro. or letters purporting to be of his author ship, Comte Esterhazy displayed great indignation and declared that they were forged by the friends of Dreytus, who, he said, had taken words and sentences from his letters and pieced them together by process with which he was acquainted He said also that he had been warned some days back that such publication would be made
 Leiour doubts the authenticity of the letters Shortly after the Figaro ap- peared Comte Esterhazy visited Gen. eral PellieuX. who was appointed by General Saussier, the military governor of Paris, to conduct the investigation of the charges which have been brought against him, and protested against what he alleges is fresh calumny." A semi official note tonight says that General PellieuX's investigation was almost fin- ished; but that he will not examine in- z @I1 1o++ f hot he will act with absolute impartiality and see to it that satisfaction is given to the honor of the army, to justice and truth.
 General Pellieux this afternoon inter rogated Colonel Piquart, who was sum- moned from Tunis in connection with the Dreyfus affair and whose state ments were reported to be the basis of operations originally brought against Comte Esterhazy.

VESSELS COLLIDE AND SINK
THE SCHOONER LOTTIE AND THE
 B.iRGE J. R. STILLMAN,

Captain PendIeton, Who Has Brother in New Haven, and Nicholas Craylick, Who Made His Home in This City, Were Drowned-The Tragedy Occurred or Point Judith.
 Providence, Nov. 2S.-Saturday night about ten miles west by south of Point Judith an ocean tragedy occurred which resulted in the loss of two vessels and two lives. The vessels were the schoon- CTS Lottie, Captain Brown, or Thomas ton, Me, and the barge J. R. Stillman, belonging to the Thames Towing com- pany of New London. The vessels collided at 10 o'clock on Saturday night and before the crew of the Stillman could leave the vessel she plunged bow foremost and disappeared beneath the waves.
 The Lottie remained afloat only a very few minutes longer, barely long enough to allow the crew to jump into their boat and get clear of the hull. The Stillman was in charge of Captain A. D. Pendleton and man whose name is unknown. Both were drowned. Cap tain Pendleton hailed from Maine and was about forty-five years of age. The Lottie was bound for New York with a cargo of lime. Her crew included, be- sides Captain Brown of Thomaston George Johnson of Rockland, Me, l.. D. Fitch of Portland, Me-, John Williams of Baltimore, James Smith of North ampton and Louis Landland of Nor way.
 As the Lottie was running oub of Vineyard Haven Saturday the green lights of the two barges, which the tug boat Gertrude had in tow, were seen. They were the Stillman and the Busy, the former bound for Fall River and the latter for Providence, laden with coal. The lights of the Lottie were plainly visible and from the lights of the towboat it was expected that she would pass to windward of the schoon- CT, which was running free.
 The course of the towboat was chang ed in an attempt to cross the bow of the schooner and the latter, unable to get clear struck the Stillman on the bow and both went down within five minutes. The schooner was laden with lime and after the collision the cargo immediately caught fire. The captain and the crew of the schooner jumped into boat, pulled for their barge which the Gertrude had in tow and climbed on board. Later they were transferred to the towboat and were brought to this city, which was the destination of the barge.
 Later.
 It was learned later that the man drowned with Captain Pendleton was Nicholas Craylick, who made his home in New Haven, Conn. Captain Pendle- ton has a brother, George Pendleton, in charge of the barge Fuller of the Empire and New England Transporta- ton company, New Haven.

J. T. Higby's Safe Blown Open-Probably
 the Work of Professionals.
 Milford, Nov. 28-Burglars entered the drug store of J. T. Higby at an early hour this morning and blew open the safe, but failed to secure any money. Some papers and books which MT. Higby says would be of no value to anybody but himself were taken and they also helped themselves to cutlery and other articles in stock, but how great the thefts in this line were is not yet fully known.
 The safe was located in the office and entrance was gained by forcing the office window. The safe blowing ap- peared to be the work of professionals. The hole was bored in one end and the charge inserted The bolts on the outer door were shattered while the inside of the safe was badly wrecked. No alarm was occasioned and the burglars made their escape without any clue being thus far obtained. The postoff1ce was adjacent but 1t was not visited.

DIXON ON spANIsH-oUBAN WAR.
Says Nobody Can Understand Why United
 States Stands Idle,

States StalluS Idle.
 New York, Nov. 2S.-The Rev. Thom- as Dixon to-day at the Academy of Mu- sic delivered an address on Cuban mar tyrdom. The service was in memory of the eight Cuban medical students who death on an alleged defilement of q grave near a cemetery. The Academy of Music was tastefully decorated with the Cuban and American colors. Be- fore preaching MT. Dixon introduced Dr. Agramonte, one of the Cuban patri- ots who has just returned to this coun- try after being incarcerated in Moro castle for eighteen months. Dr. Agra monte was too weak to speak and con- tented himself with lowing.
 MT. Dixon in his opening remarks thanked Tammany Hall for donating $20,000 to the Cubans. He eulogized Richard Croker and said that it was a pity that those who claim to be better than MT. Crolher do not do something similar to MT. Croker. Continuing, he stigmatized the Spanish rule in Cuba as infamous, barbarous and uncivilized.
 
 He eulogized the Cuban patriots, and said:
 Nobody can understand why this country stands idle. MT. Hannis Tay- lors testimony Is most convincing, yet nothing is done. Will the administra- ton dare to trifle with the hearts of the Cuban sympathizers? Will it dare to enter into a conspiracy with the Sa- gasta ministry? If the president does, 1t will be at the peril of the administra- ton and the peril of his party. We do not elect presidents to enter into con spiracies with foreign powers and ty- rants to crush out the struggle for lib- erty. War is feared-there are things worse than war-peace with dishonor and shame. The time has come to rec ognize Cuba and receive her representa- tives in Washington"

THE NEEDS OF ALASKA.
Gov. John G. Brady Says United States
 Should Appoint n Commission.

Should Appoint a Commission.
 Seattle, Wash, Nov. 2S.-In an inter- view Governor John G. Brady of Alaska said: "Tbe business men and officials of Alaska are concerned in effecting some change of exemplication of the laws as they are at present in force They will combine to submit to con- gress a proposition to authorize the ap- pointment of commission which will consider the needs of Alaska on the ground. My idea is that the commits sion should consist of a senator, rep resentative and three bona fide resi- dents of Alasaka.
 If we are able to get commission, something may be accomplished for the practical good of Alaska. Otherwise time devoted to Alaska will be frittered away in the consideration of individual bills of no benefit to the country as whole. Many think Alaska should have territorial form of government The objections to this are manifold Chief among them is the sparse population of the country. A territory means tax ation and the people are not there to be taxed. It would be of little avail to submit to congress resolutions for a change in the code now in existence.
 These things must be investigated by commission which can ascertain the needs of the people by personal ob- servation. We want an extension of the land laws, the status of the natives declared, the regulation of the fish in dustry; the right of appeal and laws for the preservation of game. The smuggling evils must also be dealt with by the commission. Last year 21,OO0 gallons of Canadian whiskey were smuggled into Alaska
