ESTtRHAZY MAKES A STATEMENT.
The Chief Says the Army Has Abandoned
HIM.


LONDON, June 5.-The Daily Chron-
icle says that Major Comte Ferdinand
Walsin EsterhaZy called at it's Office
last evening CFriday) with confiden-
tial friend, and, after declaring that
the time had arrived when the whole
truth should be told, although hitherto
both reason of constant orders and in
ducements he had kept silence on the
essential point, made the following
statement:
The chiefs of the army have dis
gracefully abandoned me. My cup is
full and l shall speak out.
Yes, (raising his voice and glaring)
it was | who wrote the bordereau.
wrote it upon orders received from
Sandherr."
Esterhazy, the Chronicle says, then
proceeded to explain that for months
before 1893 moral proofs had been OBJ
tanned of leakages which were only
possible through officers belonging to
the ministry of war; and it was neces-
sary to catch the guilty party by ma
terial evidence. Hence the bordereau.
When asked what the chiefs of the
French general staff would say to this
confession Esterhazy, struggling his
shoulders, disdainfully replied:
They will lie as they know how to
lie, but / have them right. / have
proofs that they know the whole thing
and share the responsibility with me
and l will produce the proofs" He
then denounced the chiefs as "a set of
scoundrels who have abandoned me
basely,' and added:
But at one time they used to come
to thank Madame Pays for her assist
ance."
Esterhazy asserted that, quite re-
Gently, the chiefs sent M. Laguesse, a
former deputy, to London with secduc-
tive offers to him to keep silence.
Now they are using threats" he
shouted, but l will not be deferred"
The Daily Chronicle got Esterhazy to
sign the notes Of the interview.

Sheen Denied GOyernment Reserve

WASHINGTON, June 6.-After con-
sultation with the secretary of the
interior, Commissioner Hermann of
the general land Office today decided
to refuse the request of the wool
growers of Utah and Wyoming for a
modification of his former order pro-
hibiting the grazing of sheep on the
Utah reservation in Utah. The reser-
walton contains $4,000 acres and
there were petitions from owners of
about 100000 sheep for the opening
of the reservation to them. The de-
partment's refusal was based upon
the claim of the park commissioners
that the sheep would destroy the
young forest trees and impair the wa
ter supply.

Mail Clerk Gives His version of the
Holdup of Union Pacific Train.

Mall Clerk Gives His Yer sion of the
Holcup of Union Pacific Train.
OGDEN, Utah, June 5.-W. G. Bruce,
one OF the mail clerks on the train that
was robbed in Wyoming, has arrived
at Ogden. He said that when the train
stopped the robbers came to his car
and ordered him to open the door. He
refused and the robbers began shooting
into the car from both sides. Bruce
turned out the lights. Then a stick OF
dynamite was placed under the door
and II was shattered. The clerks, fear
ing the car would be blown to pieces,
opened the door. One of the robbers
stuck his gun into the car and fred
but the bullet did no damage. The
lights were then turned on and the
clerks got out of the car.
The clerks in the Portland mail car
were also ordered out and the party Of
clerks and trainmen were stood up in
a line and guarded by one man. A de-
mand was then made Of Ernest Wood
cock, the express messenger, to open
his car, but he refused. A couple Of
shots were fired into the car and the
door blown Off. The express and mail
cars were run down the track a mile
or two to the camp Of the robbers.
There the trainmen were placed about
$50 feet from the track and about
twenty sticks of dynamite were explod-
ed on top of the safe in the express
car. The explosion wrecked the car
and split the safe wide open. Five OF
the robbers carried away two loads
each from the safe and must have Sc
cured large amount Of plumber.
When the robbery was complete the
robbers walked leisurely up the hill
north and disappeared in the darkness.
Two hours were consumed in the rob-

Suspects Are Released,

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.-Willard
r. Green and J. r. Porter, who were
taken to police headquarters and ques-
toned in connection with the myster,
ious disappearance Of $4,000 In gold
on the steamer Alameda on its trip
from Sydney to this port, were re-
leased by the police after a few hours
at headquarters. The police have con-
cluded that Green and Porter had no
connection with the disappearance OF
the money. 1t is said Green Is well
known mining man of Denver, and
Porter is his cousin, and they were
returning from a trip to Australia.
The police hold to the theory that the
money was taken at Sydney before the
vessel left that port.

COL. BRYAN AT LOUISVILLE.
What lie Said In His Talk Before the
Convention

Convention.
LOUISVILLE, Ky, June 5,-When
Col. Bryan arrived here great crowd
met him at the depot. He was escort
ed to the hotel by mounted police and
three bass bands and accompanied by
J. p. Altgeld, George Fred Williams
and bimetallic organizations, Colonel
Bryan held reception for half an hour
and shook hands with hundreds Of
Louisville's leading citizens. After
luncheon he was driven to the audi
forum, where he spoke to an audi
ence which was packed to the doors.
His talk was along the lines followed
by recent speeches made by him. He
said
The object of a party Is to give
force and effect to the political prin-
ciples entertained by the members Of
that party. The policy of the party is
determined by the majority of its
members. The democratic party adopt
ed at Chicago principles to the condi-
tions then existing. The conditions
existing today require the APPLICATION
of the same principles. No question
brought to the attention Of the people
by the last campaign has been settled
since the close of the campaign. The
republican party did not declare the
existing gold standard satisfactory,
but declared that it should be contin-
ued until foreign nations would join
in international bimetalllsm. The de-
maad for the restoration of bimetal-
lism does not mean that there are no
other issues before the people, but it
means that this issue can not be laid
aside or surrendered until the financial
policy of the American people is de-
termined by the American people
| themselves, without waiting for the
aid or consent of any other nation"
In reference to the gold democrats
Mr.. Bryan said: Il wish to say that
the men who withdrew from the party
in 1896 are mistaken, in a large meas
| ure, and If | can help them to see the
light and regain them as supporters of
the party, | feel that the time will
| come when they will thank me for it,
The remainder of Mr.. Bryan's re-
marks were confined to a condemna-
| ton of trusts, the gold standard and
the so-called imperialistic policy of
the same lines as laid down by him
in speeches in other sections of the
country.
Preceding the address of Mr.. Bryan
the Hon. Matt O'Doherty, of Kentucky,
| addressed the convention and directed
his remarks chiefly to the financial
question. He dealt briefly, however,
with the Filipino matter, and con-
tended that the congress of the United
States had not declared war against
the Filipinos, but that President Nc
Kinley has usurped the authority vest
ed in the congress of the United States
by the constitution, which provides for
such action in cases of exciting hos
tilities with any other nation. His
contention was that the Filipinos had,
| like the Americans, an aversion for
the tyrannical ruling of the Spanish
government, and that they have been
fighting to throw off the yoke of ty-
ranny.
