a Young Cuban Girl

CLINTON, Ind, Sept. 1.-The funeral
of ex-Gov. Matthews occurred We'd

My Soul" after which came prayer by
Rev. DR.. SOuders. Then came another
song, after which DR.. Souders, in a
NO1CS WIFI OcCp 1cCA-
ing, delivered a sermon. His theme
was suggested by the Biblical thought,
found in Samuel: How are the mighty
fallen" The state officers, through a
committee composed of Gov. Mount
and other state officers have adopted a
memorial in tribute to eX-Goy. Mat

STEAMER OLIVETTE SINKS.
A Mysterious Accident Near Fernandina,
Fla.-The Vessel Lies in Thirty Feet
of Water-NO Lives Lost

FERNANDINA, Fla, Sept l. The
hospital ship Olivette, which has been
lying near the quarantine station,
through some mysterious agency, sank
Wednesday morning about 7:3O o'clock.
Aboard of her was hospital corps of
So and a crew of As persons, all of
whom escaped without injury, but in
scanty attire.
The rOustabouts sleeping in the
lower hold had narrow escape, being
driven from their hunks like SO many
rats. Fortunately for those aboard
there was a schooner near by
and some of them took shelter on her,
while others sought refuge at the
quarantine station. The Olivette
went down in about so feet OF water,
her main deck being submerged. No
one apparently knows how the calam-
ity could have occurred, and as no in
vestigation has yet been made the
matter remains mystery. Vessels in
the harbor will probably pump her
out, if such a thing is possible.

CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 1.-Postmaster
Gordon, of Chicago. called on Presi-

and extended an invitation to him to
be present at the Chicago peace jubilee
in October. No definite promise was
given. He said he was planning to
visit the Omaha exposition some time
in October and that he would see if

trip so as to be able to stop at Chicago
during the peace jubilee

The exclamation is much comment
ed upon as going to show that he may
possibly have forged the letter under
orders from his superiors.
Nothing can describe the stupefac-
ton of Paris Wednesday morning. So
much ink has been used; so much pas
sion let loose over the Dreyfus affair
that even the warmest partisans on
each side seemed about tired of the
whole matter. And just when things
reached this stage a bombsheu has
burst. This is the arrest of Col Henry
who acknowledges he is the author of
the letter that virtually convicted
DreyfuS.

MILES VS.. ALGER
It is Believed the Issue Will Be
Fought to a Stand-Still.
It 10 the Opinion That Miles is Determined
to Make an Issue of the Conduct OF
the War and to Fix His Own
Status in the Matter.

WASHINGTON, Aug 31.-The opinion
is becoming general that a court-mar-
tial will be ordered by the president
for Gen. Miles, provided the latter adj
mits that he made the statements
credited to him in a recent interview
published in the Kansas City Star.
The matter has simply been aggra-
waited by the additional dispatch sent
to his paper by the same correspond
ent Monday night 1t is certain that
Gen. Miles will be asked to tell the
war department whether or not he
authorized the statements credited tc
him.
1t is inevitable that a court-martial
or court of inquiry should follow i'm
mediately the possible admission Of
Gen. Miles that he gave the interview
as twas published.
If Gen. Corbin and Secretary Alger,
against whom the charges are made,
should ask for an investigation, the
result would be a court of inquiry to
determine the truth of Gen. Miles
statements. If they should not dc
this, a court-martia1 would be or
dered to try Gen. Miles on the charge
of conduct I'm becoming an-offcer and
a gentleman. There is a feeling in
and about the war department that
Gen. COrbin can not afford to chal.
lenge the statements said to have
been made by Gen. Miles, and it is just
as certain that he can not allow them
to remain unchallenged and still pre-
serve his good standing as an officer
The charge was almost openly made
Tuesday by one officer in the war de-
partment that an order of the assist
ant secretary of war was recently
suppressed by the adjutant generals
Office.
On the following day, according to
this authority, an order was promul-
gated by the adjutant general directly
opposite in meaning to that of the Or
der sent to the assistant secretary fer
PRONUNCIATION.
When Gen. Corbin was called to &C.
count in the matter he declared that he
had not seen the assistant secretary's
order.
No doubt is entertained in official
circles that the interview attributed
to Gen. Miles and the publication
Tuesday morning of various orders to
substau tiate the statements made in
the alleged interview foreshadow an
open controversy between the general
commanding the army on one hand
and the secretary OF war and Gen.
COrbin on the other. The prevailing
opinion is that Gen. Miles has come to
| a deliberate determination to make an
| issue of the conduct of the war, to fix
his own status and to locate the re-
sponsibility for bad management and
plumbers which may have occurred,
involving unnecessary suffering and
loss of life

There been considerable unfavora-
BILE comment in regard to pr emotions
already made on the ground that they
have really acted as a form of degrade
ton in the case of several deserving
officers who have been actually re-

vancement of others 1t is hoped that
the work of the special board just APP

QUEEN VIC. DESIRES PEACE.
Her Influence the Moving Force in the
Cars nciamento-Skepti-
cism However is Expressed.

LONDON, Aug. 31.-Queen Victoria'a
influence is really at the bottom of tho
extraordinary movement for universal
peace, begun by the car of Russia.
The queen has insisted that there must
be no war in Europe during her life
tom of the British foreign policy for
years. European diplomats have
known that England would not fight.
To some observers the czar's call for
this disarmament is a curious example
of personal feeling and the workings
of the inner family polite of Europe.
Queen Victoria is Emperor William;
grandm other, and she is connected
with the car through the marriage Of
the duke of Edinburgh to the Grand
Duchess Marie of Russia, sister of AL
eXander III. The sister of the car anG
emperor having secured about all they
wanted by aggression, and finding
a vast military blishment bur
den, were willing to heed the desire
for peace, as their royal relative En-.
peror William considered the idea OF
proclaiming peace when he visited
q, Jerusalem, but it was Nicholas WING
first gave form to the idea 1t is be.
lieved that the influence of England's
queen felt, as it were, in the family
circle of European royalty, was the
MOVING force with both.
LONDON, Aug. S1.-A dispatch from
Vienna says that no doubt exists there
that the car himself conceived the
plan he proposed of universal disarma
ment, and that he was guided in doing
so by purely humanitarian sentiments
