Later he made a verbal report to the
President on the inspection of the army

During the interview Secretary Long
came over from the Navy Department
and joined the party In the Cabinet
room.
On leaving the White House Secre-
tary Alger said he was much gratified
with the conditions of the camps gen
orally. In general way the camps
were kept satisfactorily, but there
were, he conceded, points which might
have been improved upon, citing par
ticularly the unsatisfactory condition
of the sinks at some places
The main trouble found said Sec
rotary Alger, was, perhaps, the lack
of care the troops took of themselves"
Secretary Alger says the report of a
scene in General Breckinridge's head
quarters at Lexington when he was
inspecting that camp was absolutely
without foundation. There was no
scene, no high words and no excited
language. The Secretary says the story
was made out of whole CLOTH Secre-

Career Of Thomas Francis Bayard In
Which He Gained Distinction.

Thomas Francis Bayard was a distin-
ruished member of an eminent family.
Since long before the revolutionary war
times the Bayards have been conspicuous
in the country's history as patriots and
statesmen, and many. acquired national
fame as jurists. -Four members of the
Bayard family have had Senatorial hon.
ors bestowed upon them by the little
State of Delaware-Thomas Francis Bay
ard his father, James Asheton Bayard;
his grandfather, of the same name. the
negottator of the treaty of Client, and his
,ncle. Richard Henry Bayard. Hn grand

THOMAS Francis Bayard was born in
Wilmington, Del, October %. 1923. and was
a younger son. In his thirteenth year he
entered school at Flushing, l.. /. Here
he remained two years. AT the expira-
ton of that period, being intended by his
father for mercantile pursuits. a clerkship
was obtained for him in the establishment
of Mr. Bayard's brother-in-law, August
Van Cortlandt Schermerhorn. Here he re-
ceived an excellent business training. In
1s4S his elder brother died. whereupon, at
the request of his parents, he returned to
Wilmington. Having, a liking for his
fathers profession, that of law, he be-
came q student with that end in view.

HAVANA, Sept. % (via Key West,
Fla; Sept. 2S.)-Mystery and secrecy
surround all the official acts of the
Spanish Government Especially was
this the case in exhuming the remains
of Columbus, and this fact has caused
much unfavorable. comment and given
rise to grave rumors, which, though un-
confirmed, appc IT to have some found
alton, as there has been no attempt at
denial from any source. The removal
of the remains, which should have
been a nublic ceremony, was yelled Ia
the deepest mystery and was effected
behind closed doors of the: cathedral.
which was guarded by an armed force.
Few Of the authorities were present
the names of those who were to attend
being handed to the Chief of Police the
night before in General Blanco.s own
handwriting. The Chief of Policessug-
gested that comments would be made
by the press upon the secrecy of the
proceedings and asked whether 1t would
not be advisable to allow representa-.
tives of the newspapers to be present.
To this General Blanco positively re-
fused to accede, telling the Chief Of Po-
lice to limit himself exclusively to the
list of guests which had been handed
to him.
NO OIIlCldl ACCOUNT OI Tie ceremony
or statement regarding the condition
of the remains has been made public,
but Ii has leaked out from an almost
authoritative source that they are not
in exactly the same condition as when
they were placed in the niche. When
the remains were placed in the mauso-
leum a small casket was enclosed. con-
tanning coins, gold and silver medals,
precious stones and rolls of parchment,
as was then the custom upon the occa-
sion of a burial. 1t appears that this
casket had been tempered with and
rified of it's contents. and further ru-
mors say that only portions of the re-
mains are left.
Gossip of scandal and speculation are
rife. the truth of which the authori-
ties make no effort to affirm or contra
dict. A Quasi-official explanation,
however, is to the effect that secrecy
was given to the ceremony because
cable dispatch received here reported
that General Toral had been murdered
in Madrid the day before, and fears
were entertained that disorders might
occur if the public and military came
together in great numbers.
Some of the more radical Spaniards
go to the length of saying that the
whole ceremony was farce. the Gov
eminent at Washington having object
ed to the removal of the remains and
this Government going through panto-
mime in order to make the public be-
!ieve the remains. which are really left
here. were shipped to Spain

meeting of citizens was held at Dover,
and Lieutenant Bayard was one of the
principal speakers. He denounced the

have been quoted in later years as an
argument against his availability as
Presidential candidate.
Meanwhile Mr.. Bayard's popularity in
his native State kept growing rapidly;
