OCHILTREE,S RAIMENT.
lie Appears In the Police Court Like Solo,
mon In All Ills Glory.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. March 3L-Col.
Tom Ochiltree was a witness in the Po-
lice Court yesterday morning against his
erstwhile valet, Charles j. Roberts who
departed suddenly with most Of the Col
oners wearing apparel and jewclry.
Col Ochiliree told Judge Miller how he
was informed by Mr. Philip Lydic. Of
New York. who was at that time stop
ping az the Shoreham. Of the loss Of 4
valuable diamond and his return trip
ticket TO New York.
Mr. Lydic suspected Roberts and adj
vised the Colonel 20 make an inyestiea-
ton and see II he had not also been VIC
tmized. He did so and found that his
room had been ransacked.
What were the articles taken. and
their yaiue?" asked Judge Miller.
WHY. your Honor. he took nearly ev-
erything / had. except the clothes on my
back. All my iewelry. among them four
sets Of stud buttons. several scarf-pins
and-well. you can see what I have left. -
and the Texas Colonel put his raimenis
and ornaments on exhibition by stepping
back and disclosing his portly figure to
the gaze OF the Judge.
He wore a spring suit OF black. with
pin stripe OF white running through in
longitudinal lines. or rather with the
Colonies figure they were rounded out
into artistic curves OF the Aubrey Boards
ley type. His trousers were cut full and
draped his neither limbs In graceful folds.
lie carried a light topcoat upon his arm
and laid his cane. with the handle turn
ed into a genuine shepherds crook. upon
the top Of the witness-stand, as he talk
cd 10 the Judge.
The makeup was artistic, and the
CLINT OF gold was caught from many parts
Of the COlonels attire. II was altogeth-
or not impressive OF a great scarcity or
necessary clothing for any other man be-
side the Colonel. but he seemed 10 regard
IL as a desert waste as he ruefully glanc-
cd down his expansive front.
The loss Of the Coloners raiment is
harder upon him than IL would be 70 the
average citizen, because only one tailor.
and that one located in London, has the
honor Of rounding out bolts OF cloth TO
fit the Colonels figure.
Detective McDevitt was then called and
testified on behalf OF Mr. Lydic that
Roberts had stolen diamond pin valued
at So and a railroad ticket worth s..
Roberts was bound over 10 the Grand
Jury in $500 bonds, which he was not able
20 furnish. and consequently went back
70 Jail.

He SAYS There Are Plenty Of Leaders To
Take Rivera's Place.


Take Rivera's Place.
BALTIMORE. MD, March 3i.-Dr. j.
]. Luis, who is in Jail under sentence
on the charge OF attempting TO send an
armed expedition TO Cuba to aid the
insurgents did not seem disheartened by
the reported capture and wounding OF
Gen. Rus Rivera. the insurgent COM
mander and successor TO Maceo.
General Rivera" he said, lis a good
man, and. therefore, there IS just one
good man less to help fight for the Gu
ban cause. He was what you would call
a division general. commanding in the
Pinar del Rio province. lie was an act
i've general, and was feared by the Span
iards. There are plenty Of good men 10
take his place and carry on the Tight.
General Rodriguez may be his successor,
but other patriots are rapidly rising In
the Cuban ranks.
You will find that Rivera's capture
will not harm the cause. The Insurgents
still hold the province and will continue
fighting just the same The campaign
will be very active during the next month
because the rainy and fever season start
ed In about May !. and the more ener-
getic lighting will then be over for some
time.
This season harms both the Spaniards
and the insurgents. but our people suffer
less do not think that the war will
last more than one year longer, and
l feel that the insurgents will win.
"Oh, no. concluded Dr. Luis, "the
cause OF the insurgents is not lost be-
cause OF the capture OF General Rivera
I good man though he IS. The cause lost
Maceo but it still lives"

TREASURY ST.fIEMINT.
A Decrease In the National Deficiency for
the First Time in Year.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. March 3l.-The
statments of receipts and expenditures
FOR the month of March TO be issued by
the Treasury Department tomorrow will
show a decrease in the national deficiency
for the first time with the exception OF
one month, in year.
Up to to-day the excess OF receipts
over expenditures for March amounted TO
S87i3.72S and as there were no large pay
ments 10 offset the revenue received to-
day. a million dollars will probably be
added TO this favorable showing. This
large increase in revenue IS due 10
charges for the withdrawal OF goods IN
bond and the duties of articles received
from abroad naturally resulting from the
Dngley bill. Importers and others who
deal i'm articles on which the duty Is in
creased by the Dingley bill are getting
their stores out of bonded warehouses and
receiving large consignments from abroad
10 secure the advantage Of the present
rates.
