GENERAL ROGET'.S TESTIMONY.
Declares Esterhazy is Paid to Constantly
Chnnge His Attitude.

Paris, April THE Figaro this morn
ing publishes the dispositions Of General
Roget before the Court of Cessation in
reply to the evidence given by M. Ber-
tulus, the examining magistrate, Col
onel Picquart, and M. Develle, who was
foreign minister in 1893. General Roget
declares that the account given by M.
Bertulus of his interview with Lieuten-
ant Colonel Henry is false. He says
that Henry recounted the interview to
General Gonse, saying that M. Bertulus
embraced him (Henry) and with tears
protested that he (Bertulus) was forced
by Colonel Picquart and others, but
that really he sided with the general
staff. General Roget, it appears, at
tackled M. Bertulus violently, asserting
that he had long suspected him. He
told the Court of Cessation that Count
Esterhazy constantly changed his atti-
tude and was paid to do so. He re-
counted the efforts certain newspapers
had made to get Esterhazy to talk and
to admit the authorship of the Bor-
dereau.

marched snto the ranks of the dead.
Flankng the open space at the head of
the graves were the red-eoated artillery
men, who were to fire the last salute,
and on the left vas stationed the Fourth
| artillery band.
The president accompanied by Secre-
taries Hay Gage, Long, Hitchcock
! Wilson, Postmaster General Smith, As
I sistant Secretary Taylor, General Cor
( bin, General John NJ. Wilson and Colo
mel Bingham, came forward with un-
! covered head and took his place in the
| open space facing the graves He was
/ followed by General Miles and his staff
in full uniform and by other distin-
guished guests including some Of the
representatives of foreign countries.
Just as the president arrived pathetic
incident occurred, when aged Mr.. and
Mrs. ODowd pressed through the lines
and placed a bunch of roses on the cas-
ket of their son, John ODowd, OF the
Seventh infantry. The parents of Lieu
tenant Wood also came forward and de-
posted a beautiful wreath of flowers,
The sword of that gallant officer was
upon his casket. Immediately the band
broke out in the sweet strains of Near
er My God to Thee" and the post chap
lain, w. Freeland of Fort Monroe, in
the ecclesiastical robes of his office, with
Rev. Father MCGEE of ST. Patrck's
church, followed by three purple-goWn-
ed acolytes, advanced to the graves and
the funeral services began. They were
very simple, but very impressive.
The Rev. Mr.. Freeland read the mill
tary committal service of the Episcopal
church, beginning with MAN that is
born of woman" and concluding with
the promise of Heaven contained In the
words: II am the resurrection and the
life" As he pronounced the words
dust to dust, earth to earth" the SOL
d'ers at the side of each grave crumbled
a clod of earth upon each casket. The
vast concourse barred their heads to the
solemn words and thousands joined in
the Lords prayer. The Rev. Father
MCGEE then consecrated, with the
churchlv power vested in him, the
earth into which the bodies OF the Cath
olic soldiers were placed. Meantime
from Fort Myer booming down the
wind came the dull roar of gun every
half hour and the national ensiens on
the staff there and on the Lee mansion
were run down to halfmast. AS coon as
the services were completed fanking
detachments of the Fourth and Fifth
artillery fired three volleys, and in the
solemn hush that followed the salute
the bugle sounded taps" The last re-
ligious and military rights to the dead
heroes were over and the presidential
party and the military departed, leav-
ing the work of actual interment to
follow. AS each of the caskets weighs /!
almost 800 pounds, and REQUIRES eight
men to handle 1t, it will be two or three
days before all the bodies are in their
graves. In order to permit all govern
ment employees to attend the services .
this afternoon all the departments and +
the federal courts Were closed by an ex-
ecutive order of the president. and all
the flags in the city were l1alf-masted. |

TO PROTECT AMERICAN INTERESTS
The Quick Dispatch of the Cruiser De-
trOit to Blue1iclds, Nicaragua.

Washington, April 6-The cruiser
Detroit, which is now lying off La
| Guayra, Venezuela, has been ordered
post haste to Bluefelds, Nicaragua, for
/ the protection of American interests. On
the way she will touch at Port Limon,
where her commander will put himself
/ in communication with the United
States consul at that point and where
he also may receive further instruc-
tions. She is also likely to make brief
stop at Greytown. Her despatch under
hurry orders is at the urgent request of
! the state department, to which Ameri-
can residents, both at Bluefelds and in
/ Costa Rica have applied for protection
of their interests. An arbitrary and extor-
tionate policy adopted by General Tor
res at Bluefields, who on more than
one occasion has made himself persona
non grata to this government and
whose restoration to power at this time
has been followed by acts which Ameri-
can residents resent and protest
against, is the main cause of the ves-
sells despatch. The state department at
the same time has cablad instructions to
the United States diplomatic represent
tative at Bluefields to lodge an energetic
protest with the Nicaraguan govern
ment against the action of General Tor
res and disregard of this protest will
be followed up by a most positive step
on the part of this government. In
Costa Rica, the American business in
terests and residents are in trouble as
result of an insurrectionary move
ment. 1t is understood that the insur-
gents are levying forced loans on them,
besides collecting exorbitant and re-
doubled duties on innorts

MORE ARMY BEEF SCANDAL
THE DESTR UCTION OF4, 400 CANS AT
HAT4N1.
War Department to Request General
Brooke to Make u Thorough Invesit-
gatiou-TO Fix the Responsibility
The Beef Was Tainted and 1t Was De-
stroycd by the Commissary Officials.

Washington, April 6.-The arragn-
ment of large amount of the canned
beef supplies at Havana, of which, it is
charged, 4,400 cans Of tainted beef have
just been destroyed by commissary Off
cials, will be followed tomorrow by an
order from the war department which
may result in an investigation. Acting
Secretary Meiklejohn when shown the
Associated Press despatch about the
complaints and the destruction of spoil
ed meat on two occasions, stated that
General Brooke will be requested by
cable tomorrow to make a full and
thorough investigation Of all the charges
and complaints and to report the facts
to the department.
1t was explained tonight that If these
cans are the remnant of the supplies
sent into the tropics since the Spanish
war opened, it is not strange that less
than 8 per cent. of the whole lot, that
is 4400 out of $4,000 cans, should prove
worthless. instructions will be issued
Immediately" Acting Secretary Meikle-
john said tonight. ito ascertain the
conditions reported to exist and if the
conditions are as reported on whom the
responsibility should be placed and
whether they are due to the failure of
the contractors to furnish the canned
meat in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the contract or whether
due to carelessness in handling the sup
plies after they were received from the
contractors"
The rules of the war department re-
quire action by board of survey to
sanction the condemnation of beef sup
plies, but this report of the board may
be condition subsequent, the official
destroying of the supplies, it is said, be-
ing allowed in certain contingencies to
file sufficient testimony of the charac-
ter of the condemned supplies to war
rant report of beard of survey with
out actual inspection where the supplies
were badly affected. Without this for
mality of board of survey to report, a
official would have hardly
had beef destroyed without the boards
report, as the destroyed stuff would re-
main on his property rolls and he would
be held accountable therefore.

THE COLLEGE ATHLETIC TRAINER.
Students Subjected to Danger Through
Emp1 yment of Ignorant Men.

Boston, April 6--The last session Of
the national convention of the Ameri-
can Association for the Advancement
of Physical Education was held to-day.
DR.. Seaver Of Yale read paper describ-
ing the genesis of the college athletic
trainer, and showed the great danger
to which students were subjected
through the employment Of ignorant
and often immoral men in that capac-
ity. He urged that the present trainer
should be replaced by a man who, while
possessing technical knowledge Of the
different sports, would have medical
training, character and cultivation.
President Eliot said that he would
set aside college athletics from his dis
cussion of the topic, inasmuch as they
were IAN enormous exaggeration of
anything desirable in physical train
ing" He wished to be rid of the word
physical" the use of which he consd-
cred a relic of the Puritanic separation
of the body from the mind and soul.
The education Of the whole being should
be sought after. He considered that
physical exercise was the most profita-
BILE which was invariably associated
with employment. For this reason he
recommended out-of door sports, espe-
cially those which, like bicycling and
golf, could be continued all through life.
Professor Hollis, chairman of the Har-
ward athletic committee, deprecated
compulsory gymnasium work and urged
that any changes made in physical
training should be in the direction of
making it more attractive. Much more,
he thought could be accomplished by
promoting regular habits of eating and
sleeping than byprescrbing few hours
a week in the gymnasium.

ALL TRIMS DELAYED,
Freight Wreck at Canton Junction on
Providence Division o. ocConsolidnted


Canton, Mass, April 6.-All trains on
the Providence division of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford road
were stalled at Canton Junction from l
o'clock this afternoon until a late hour
this evening by reason of a freight
wreck near the bridge that completely
blocked both tracks. The freight train
was approaching the junction at mod
crate rate of speed on the north h-bound
track, when just after crossing the
switch the engine left the rails and
plunged off the side of the track into
the stone abutments at the side. Both
the engineer and fireman jumped before
the engine struck the bridge and escap
ed with but a few scratches, and the
train crew were only slightly shaken
up. The engine was almost completely
demolished, while three freight cars
were well smashed up and a number of
others left the rails and plunged over
on to the south-bound track. The dam
age to the rolling stock will be several
thousand dollars. At late hour to-
night the south-bound track had been
cleared and trains We're running.

CHRISTIANS IN CHINA,
Copy of Recent Edict Regarding Their
Treatment Received In yyashington.

lNefelVeu IN htSaan1n2tOns
Washington, April 6.-United States
Minister Conger, at Pekin. has supplied
the state department with copy of a
proclamation posted at Tien Tsin rela-
tive to the treatment of missionaries in
China. In this edict, issued on the
''27th of the tenth moon,'' the Empress
Dowager recites the fact that anti
Christian movements had taken place in
many provinces and declares that these
have all been based on false sentiment
She wishes the people to understand
that the teaching Of Christianity is per-
mitted in China and that the prea chers
are to be treated as good citizens. The
Empress declares that a good man,
whether Christian or not will obey the
principles of being honest and true to
others, wherefore she desires her people
to treat foreigners as their own coun-
trymen and avoid all misunderstanding
with them. She commands the viceroys
and officials in the provinces to empha-
size her sincerity by exerting themselves
to suppress all agitation among the peo-
pie before any anti-Christian prejudice

Evening Session of the Investigating 8
Committee Two witnesses Called.

! Harrisburg, a, April 6.-Thomas A.
Hendricks, and M. S. Collins Of Jerymn
We're called at the evening session of
the legislative committee which is in
vestigating the charges of bribery in
the legislature, in response to an anony-
nous letter received by a member of
the committee that they saw ex-Sena-

ESTERHAZY MADE THREATS
TEXT OF THREE LETTERS SENT TO
PRESIDENT FAURE.

ofn Letter in His Possession Stolen by
Picquart WouId Force France 10 HUI
initiate HerscIfor Declare War.
London, April THE Daily Chronicle
this morning prints the text of three
letters alluded to by Examining Magis-
trate Bertulus before the court of cas-
sation, which Major Count Esterhazy
addressed to President Faure (now de-
ceased), under dates of october 20 and
October 81, 1897, and November s. 1887
dictated to him by Colonel DuPaty de
Clam. The first letter complains that
he has been victimized by the Drey-
fusites and that the minister of war
has ignored his appeal for protection.
He goes on to beg M. Faure to put an
end to the scandal, and says:
IF I should have the sorrow not to
be listened to by the supreme head of
my country, my precautions are taken
for my appeal to reach the ears of my
heraldic chief, the sovereign of the Es-
terhazy family the Emperor OF Ger
many. He is soldier and will know
how to set right the honor Of a soldier,
even an enemy, above the mean ana
equivocal intrigues of polotics. He Will
dare to speak out loud and strong, and
to defend the honor of ten generations
of soldiers 1t is for you, nj. LePresl-
dent to judge if you should force me to
carry the question into that region An
Esterhazy fears not anything or any
body if not good. Nothing and nobody
will prevent my acting as | say, II | am
sacrificed to, | know not what miserable
political combinations"
The second letter, couched in more Vi
olont terms, complains that M. Faure
has ignored his appeal and threatens to
publish photograph of "a paper stolen
by Picquart in foreign legation, which
would be most compromising for certain
diplomatic personalities, if his appeals
are disregarded
The third, which is similar in tone, al
ludes again to this document as pro-
lection for himself, "since it proves the
scoundreism of Dreyfus' and as dam
ger for France, because its publication
with fac-simile writing Will force
France to humiliate herself or to declare
war" do not leave to me-" he says,
"the obligation of choosing between al
ternatives equally horrible" After fur"
ther violent protestations the third let"
ter concludes as follows: Il raise the
old French cry, Help me, my prince, to
NV succori' LET me be defended and /
will send back the document to the min
lister. of war without anybody in the
world having seen it, but let me be de-
Tended quickly, for I cannot wait longer
and shall stop at nothing to defend or
avenge my honor, infamously sacri-
fieed.''

FOR CUBAN IND EPEND ENCE.
Efforts Making to Effect a COnsOIida
ton of Two Movements.


ton of Two Movements.
Havana, April 6.-The National Gu
ban party and the Liga Patr;otica con-
tinue the campaigns for the formation
of the party of Cuban independence.
Efforts are now being made to effect a
consolidation of the two movements.
The principal difference between them
seems to be that one wishes ward repre-
sentatives in a national convention to
be chosen according to the number of
voters In ward, while the other in
sists upon three delegates for each ward
without regard to the number of voters
in it. The committee of the national
party had the question of consolidation
under consideration last night, but de-
cided that it had no authority to act
independently. The probability is that
q union will soon be effected and that
both organizations will then proceed
upon the same lines throughout.
