Statements Made by Gen. Miles.
Washington, Dec 24.-Gen. Egan, COM
missary Of subsistence, gave out the fol-
lowing statement to-day in reference to his
contemplated action on statements made
by Gen. Miles concerning commissary sup
plies furnished the army:
Gen Fsau has referred to Gen. Miles,
the published article purporting to be an
interview with Gen. Miles in regard to the
military supplies, asking whether the
statements attributed to him Gen. Miles,
were made by him, or any Of them, or
which of them or to what extent the
statements or any parts of the statements
are true.
Gen Egan does not purpose to discuss
this very serious matter in the public
press, but has asked, first, if Gen. Miles
avows or disavows this interview, and has
also asked the investigating commission
for true copy of the statements Chat
we're not sworn TO, however, made by Gen.
Miles before it.
Gen. Egan has also asked the invesu-
eating commission to be called before It
for the purpose of rebutting and refuting
the statements alleged to have been made
by Gen. Miles, and published in the press,
to answer these or any statement made
by Gen. Miles under oath, and especially
and particularly to meet the alleged
charges of furnishing anything whatever
under pretense of experiment.

ESCAPE or MORGAN RAIDERS.
Finding of Knives shows They Got
Out by the Tunnel Rnmfe.

Out by the Tunnel Route.
Columbus, O., Dec. 4.-omclals OF the
penitentary to-day succeeded in finding
a knife that was probably secreted by
Thomas w, Bullet Of Louisville, KY, who
was one Of the Morgan raiders, who was
imprisoned with the famous Confederate
In the prison during the clvil war, and
who was one of the number Of the men
to escape from the prison
Mr.. Bullet recently told how and where
he had secreted the knife, and expressed
the belief that 1t was still In the place
whore he put it years ago. II was said
that the knife was one of fourteen which
the prisoners of war had made, which was
hidden when the fact OF their possession
was exposed.
The place of concealment was said to
have been In an airshaft used as a ven
tilator, and after persistent search II was
found at the bottom, where ii had drop
ped at some time since the raiders left
the prison. IL was rust-eaten, and the
handle OF wood had nearly rotted away
second knife was also found in the tun-
mel
The discovery is Of especial interest since
ii settled a much mooted point-the means
OF escape or the prisoners. The most of
the prison officials believe that the first
knife is the one described by Mr.. Bullet
and II that be true it proves beyond ques-
tion that the Morgan raiders made their
escape as has always been claimed, by
the tunnel route, and not by the aid or
connivance of any OF the prison officials
This point Is given emphasis, too, by
the fact. as stated by Mr. Bullet, that the
raiders took no stock in Warden Marion.
Ia fact, disliked him, but he was anxious
that the truth should be known for the
truth of history, and In order TO relieve
the warden's memory Of any odium that
might have attached to IL by reason OF the
escape Of Gen. Morgan and his six COM

FIRE IN A TENEMENT.
Three burned TO Death and others
BADLY Injured.

New York, Dec. 25.-Fire broke out in the
five-story tenement at 175 Greenwich
street about o'clock this morning and re-
suited in the Toss of several lives.
Owing to the fact there was another fire
down town, it was about fifteen minutes
before tie first engine reached the blazing
tenement The fire burned very tiercely, and
there was panic amongst The tenants.
About five families lived in the house
and the first body found, which was short
~ before o'clock. was that Of woman
supposed to be Mrs. Mannon, who lived
with her two sons on the fourth floor.
A boy named Richard HicksOn, probably
four or five years of age, who lived with
his father and mother, and five other chill
dren, the fifth floor is believed to be
burned 10 death Four other children have
not been accounted for, and probably were
also burned to death. When the tiremen
reached the house the stairway and halls
from the street to the roof were blocked
with flames, and flames were pouring forth
from every window in front. Dense vol
umes of smoke rolled high above the
building.
The firemen made their way up to the
top of the building by means of the fire
escapes and rescued a number of people.
Two men who lived in the vicinity of the
tenement aided greatly in the rescue of
the people, one going up the fire escape to
the top floor. where Mrs Hickson and
four of her children were screaming for
help. He carried down two Of the chill
dren. The firemen battered down doors
and rushed through the smoke and flames.
Fire Chief IIreuger ordered them right
through the building to the top and they
succeeded in making their way, They
found several Of the tenants almost suf-
located and brought them to the street.
Two fremen were overcome by smoke,
but their places were quickly taken by
others Assistant Foreman of Engine No,
6 Peter Andrews fell from the first
story fire escape, and received serious in
juries in the back.
1t is believed that the dead will not num-
Der more than three, but it is impossible
to tell at this hour definitely.
The fire was out at 2:40 a. m. At that
hour the firemen were stil searching for
bodies. Fire Chief Kreuger said that
Frederick Hickson, 3 years old, had been
burned to death and that his brother,
Richard Hickson, a little younger. and an
other child, were missing as well as one
woman. Mrs. Bannon, who was carried
down the fire escape and supposed by the
firemen to be dead, was unconscious only.
She regained consciousness, but her condi-
ton is serious.
The damage to the property will not
amount to much.

AUSTRIA WOULD RETALrATE.
Wants Greater Consideration shown
to Austrians in Germany.

TO Austrlans in Germany.
Vienna, Dec. @.-The Abendopost pub
fishes to-day long communication re-
garding the German Interpretation of the
answer of Count Thun- Hohenstein, the
Austrian premier, to an Interpolation in
the Reichstrath, made on Nov. 90, on the
subject of the expulsion Of the Austrans
from Prussia.
In his answer the premier said that
should the expectation, warranted by as
surances of the Berlin cabinet, that great
er consideration win be shown to Aus
TRANS, not be fulfilled the government
would not hesitate theoretically to protect
the rights of Austrians and, if necessary,
adopt retaiiatory measures.
The writer of the communication says
the premier's remarks are entirely misun-
derstood in Germany; and, after dwelling
upon the closeness of the relations between
Germany and Austria, states;
Count Thun- Hohensteir is, officially and
personally, as loyal a supporter not only of
the treaty connection. but also of the init
mate relations of the two empires as any
other influential parsonage in the mon
archy."
