ANDY" Welsh, the we'll known
book maker, who was doing business
in this city at the last race meeting
is having trouble at Columbus.
A special from that place says:
Warren w. Stoner backed the
trotters at the Driving park and now
he seeks to recover s3,625 claimed to
have been lost on the 2:14 race the
other day when Surpol was with
drawn on account of a bad foot.
Stoner is Kentuckian and is one of
the best known of turfmen. He
claims that he bought pools on Sur
pol in the 2:l4 trot to the amount of
s3,625 and was ''jobbed out" of his
money hands down.
Stoner claims that the horse was
':doctored' so that he could hardly
stand and was unable to trOt out the
last heats of the race, having won
one heat, and the two going to an
other horse. This afternoon the
rain having prevented further rae
ing, this event being unfinished, was
awarded to the horse having won the
most heats. Accordingly Stoner's
tickets were hardly worth tearing
up. An attachment was gotten out
this afternoon by Mr.. Stoner against
Ira E. Bride, William Fitch and An
drew Welsh, the ''Bookies," and the
Driving association which is sup
posed to have funds belonging to the
defendants. Service was secured by
the sheriff at the Neil house,

NO HOPE FOR DREYFUS
SUPERIOR COUNCIL OF WAR DECIDES
AGAINST HIS RELEASE.
Under No Circumstance VIII He BE
Britain and the TransvaaI.

LONDON, April S.-David Christie Muir
ray publishes. this morning, the statement
that he has learned from trustworthy
sources in Paris that the superior council Of
war, including General De Negrier, General
Zurlinden, General Giovanninelli, General
Duchesno and General lamont. its vice
president. none of whom, except. perhaps,
General Zurlinden, has heretofore been i'm
plicated in the Dreyfus affair. has decided
that, under no circumstances whatever,
shall Dreyfus be liberated. He understands
also, from the same sources. that negotia-
tons are now proceeding between the In
telligence Bureau and the judges of the
Court of Cessation to secure a rejection OF
the request for revision, and that the judges
who favor revision are being subjected to
terrible intimidation. More than this he
learns that everything has been arranged
for a sham trial of Colonel Picquart, who
is to be degraded and sentenced to impris-
onment for ten years.
PARIS, April 24-The Figaro continues its
publication of the testimony offered before
the Court of Cessation in the Dreyfus re-
vision inquiry. Captain Cuignet, h de-
scribed the discovery of the forgery of
Lieutenant Colonel Henry, told the court
that. in his opinion. Henry was only an ac-
complete of Col. Du Patty de Clam, the prin-
cipal author of the forgery. inasmuch as
Henry was never before accused of wrong
doing, while Du Patty de Clam was known
to be guilty OF shady practices. According
TO Colonel Cuignet, Colonel Du Patty Clam
had the dossier at the prefecture of police.

stands and Sits on Her Casket tn Pro-
tect Them.

Nine. Sembrich, the famous singer who is
TO appear here next week. has a collection
of jewels which are said To be valued at more
than s2OO,00 They are c~ustomarily carried
in a casket built to contain the different ar
ticles. and this is always carefully guarded.
ON the day that she arrived in New York,
Nine. Sembrich. who is not d tall woman,
seemed a foot or two taller than her Gus
tomaTy height. The members of the COM
pany who crossed on the steamer with her
were unable TO account for the change as
they stood among the trunks awaiting the
inspection of the luggage. One of them was
finally unable To endure the uncertainty any
longer. and went over to find out the rea-
son for her increased stature. Then it was
discovered that Nine. Sembrich was stand
ing on her jewel casket. There was no other
way of securing the customary protection
while the trunks Were opened, so she mount
ed the box IN order TO protect 1t from any
possible danger.
A somewhat similar incident happened
once in Russia. Nine. Sembrich was travel
ing from St. Petersburg to Warsaw. She,
her husband and the jewel box were in one
compartment. while her maid and the cour-
Ter with whom she usually travels were in
another car. The other passengers in the
car were an officer whom they had met in
81. petersburg. and two strange men. After
the train eft Moscow. the officer told Nine.
Sembrich that he had recognized the two
men as notorious thieves who had lately
been released from prison and were doubt
less on the train for the purpose of getting
al her jewels. which were famous in Russia.
lie promised TO keep guard from the outside.
Mime. Sembrich and her husband locked the
door and alternated in sitting on the jewel
casket until Warsaw was reached in the
early morning hours. NThen a policeman
was brought TO the car and under his su-
peTvision the singer and her jewels were
safely carried to the hotel. Many of them
were given to the singer by admirers in Rus
Sia-some of whom were not even known to
her by name. The most valuable part of the
collection is a set of sapphires that she
wears at all the concerts at which she an
pears, believing that they are good luck
for her.
