Probable Punishment of Capt. Cogh.
Ian for His Recent Utterances.
New York, April Pa special from
Washington says:
AS u result of his allusion to the con-
duct of the German fleet at Manila
during the war with Spain, Captain
Joseph B. Coghlan will in ali probabil-
ity be relieved of the command of the
Raleigh. Secretary Long will not dis
cnss Captain %Coghlan's conduct, but he
consented to say that no action would
be taken until he had heard from that
officer. 1t is presumed that Captain
Coghlan received the letter sent by
Secretary Long Saturday, and it is eX-
pected that a reply will be in the hands
of the secretary today. Until action is
taken in the matter it is hoped by de-
partment officials that Captain Cogh-
Ian will not make any further public
utterances of u character rejecting up
on the conduct of Germany during the

Washington, April 26.-The cabinet
discussed the Coghlan case today. Sec
rotary Long said he had received Il let
ter from Coghlan. The latter said his
remarks were made most informally.
without any thought that they would
be published. The published accounts
attributed to him things that he did
not say. Under the circumstances he
thought the u%tterances should be con
sidered privileged. 1t is understood
the captain will soon retire and it is
believed the authorities will show him
as much consideration as is consistent
with disciDline.

who is the proprietor of a large sani-

very slight. Since his illness forced
him to take to his bed the physician
has reiterated time and again in the
hearing of his brother doctors that his

ments. Late last night the Invalid
asked that the prosecutor and coroner
be summoned, and this was done. A
sworn statement was made by the dy-
ing man and taken down by both the
coroner and prosecutor. In addition
DIR. Patton requested that a postrmor-
tenn examination of his body be made
in order that the true cause of his
death might be ascertained.
A representative of the Associated
Press:was present when the ante-moro
tenn statements were made and the
doctor said:
81 know that I have been poisoned,
and / also realize that I have but o
short time to live. I made my will last
Monday, and have also asked that q
post-mortem examination be held. lf
l should chance to recover / intend to
prosecute my wife, but if l should die
l have so arranged that the law may
take its course"
Mrs. Julia Patton, the accused
woman, has filed proceedings for a di-
vorce and is now at one of her farms
near New Market, Ind. She has been
married four times and is worth some
thing over $780, 900 in her own right.
No steps have yet been taken to appre-

WITNESSES ARE WARNED
Mazet Committee Declares Refusal
to Answer Questions Means
Imprisonment.

New York, April 25.-When the Ma
yet committee met this morning Proc.
tor Clarke, Of counsel for the commit
tee, called attention 10 the fact that
the penal code prescribes u years
imprisonment and $500 fine for a re-
fusal to answer the committees ques-
tons and said, with the approval Of the
committee, that it was the purpose Of
counsel to present contmacious wit
nesses to the criminal authorities of
the county. If they were too busy to
attend to the cases they would ask the
governor to appoint q judge to hold an
extra term of court and impanel an
extra grand jury for the purpose.
DR.. O'Sullivan, representing the city
departments, declared this statement
was an intimidation, and asserted the
committee could not judge as to the
%propriety or materiality Of its ques-
lions. .
After q number of unimportant Wit
nesses were examined President Feitl
ner, of the department of taxes, swore
Croker was not assessed for personal
taxes since 1896. In 1895 Croker made
an affidavit he had no personal proper
ty subject to taxation, aside from bank
shares. Feitner said the record shows
he has no personal property, but has
real estate, mortgaged to the AMOUNT
of $%125,000.

Washington, April 25.-Colonel John!
Miller StDtsenberg, OF tine First Ne
Sbraska infantry, who held the rank OF
captain Of the regular army, killed In
the reconnaissance at Qulngua, vas
born In Indiana, November n, 1898;
and was appointed q cadet at the mill
tary academy, July, 1877, and gradu-
ated No. Al in his class. He was up
pointed second lieutenant of the Sixth
cavalry in 1881, and became a captain
December IA, 1898. He served with his
regiment in Arizona and New Mex
leo from 1857 to 1890, IT the close OF
the latter year participating III the
Sioux campaign in the action at
Wounded Knee, S. d. He was at Fotr
Niobrara from 1891 to 1894, and then
served for a few months at Fort
Meyer, near Washington, going thence
to the infantry and cavalry school at
Fort Leayenworth, Kan, where he was
graduated with distinguished honors.
Colonel ~Stotsenberg then served with
his regiment ut Fort L~eavenworth,
Kan, until December, 1897, and from
that time until the following April was
professor of military science and tac-
tics at the University of Nebraska.
He was mustered in as major of the
First Nebraska infantry May 9 last,
and as colonel OF the same regiment
November 10, 1898, He sailed with his
regiment for Manila June is.
He was a strict disciplinarian, and
the raw recruits he had to break in
during the early months of his com.
mand of the First Nebraska resented
his methods so bitterly that they pro-
cured the passage of q resolution OF
censure against him through the Ne.
braska legislature. Once they became
engaged in actual warfare, however,
the merits of his course became so ap.-
parent that in response to q very
strong demand from the people of the
state and the soldiers themselves, the
resolution of censure by a formal vote
was expunged from the legislative
records.
The First Nebraska went to Manila
in charge of Colonel Bratt, and under
his command took part in the oper-
atoms south of Manila against Malate
fort and the attack and capture of
Manila on Angst 10. In the selection
of officers for civic positions in the or
g%anization ofagovernment for the city
Lieutenant Colonel Cotton, of the First
Nebraska. was made deputy collector
of the port. Later Colonel Bratt be-
came i'll and was condemned by a
medical board. General Otis ordered
him home, and then, as he did not care
to take Cotton out of the custom
house, where he was doing excellent
work, it was decided to select some
other officer for the command of the
regiment. The choice fell upon Stots-
enberg, of the Sixth cavalry, and he
was named.
At first there was strong opposition
from within the command, many of
the other officers believing that those
in the regular line should be pro-
NOTED. but that was soon overcome.
Colonel stotsenberg endeared himself
to every officer and man in the regi-
ment, and brought the command to q
high state of efficiency.
