AT GRANTS TOMB.
An Address by Gov. Roosevelt. to Ten
Thousand People.

AhouedHu coP'C.
New York, May 30.-The Sarcopha-
gus of Gen. Grant in the tomb at Clare
mont was covered with flowers this af-
ternoon after impressive ceremonies by
U. S. Grant Post, G. A. r., of Brooklyn,
an address by Governor Roosevelt, and
presidential salute of twenty-one
guns, fired from the United States
cruiser Brooklyn, which lay in the Hud-
son Just below the hill with all her
battle flags flying.
More than 10000 persons witnessed
the ceremony and crowded Claremont
in the vicinity of the tomb. A large
stand had been erected on the east side
of the tomb, covered with red, white
and blue bunting and flag draped over
the railing. Above the stand on the
columns of the side of the tomb were
festoons of large flags. Here the GER
emory was conducted.
After Commander B. f. Parsons had
made short addressA Governor Roos-
evelt was introduced, and received an
ovation when ne arose TO speak.
He delivered a eulogy on Gen. Grant
OF him he said:
Mercy and peace go hand in hand.
If Gen. Grant had shown mercy at
Fort Donaldson it would have meant
years of destruction and desolation,
and if he had not shown mercy at APP
pomattox a breach of peace would nave
widened between us and our brethren
which never could have closed"
Continuing Governor Roosevelt said:
Here / stand in this beautiful spring
weather, in our own beloved country
and State, with quiet peace prevailing,
while in the tropical whitening heat
of the Philippines. fighting for the glo-
rious flag with the same motive you
Grand Army men fought with in 1864
are your sons and their hero COM
rades.
Those men have right to demand
that you think of them not with maud
lin sympathy or regret, but as soldiers
and men, Small indeed be my respect
for an American, unless bound by ties
of family and dependence, if he did not
welcome the chance to serve under Otis
and Macarthur and follow gallant
Funston as they follow the flag that
you and their fathers followed TO vic
tory in the civil war. Let us make our
voices felt in the Philippines that we
stand behind the men who are doing
all the can to honor the flag as you did
and remember when victory comes, as
it will. that a heavier task by far is
UPON us-the task OF peace"

Herald from Washington says:

New York, May so.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
The situation in the Philippines as
described in recent dispatches, is such
as to make it almost necessary TO raise
at least part of the provisional army
authorized by the last Congress if the
United St@tes expects to secure COM
plete control of the archipelago. The
administration has been brought to
realize that IL is no longer war and
diplomacy in dealing with the insur-
gents, but plain war. Diplomacy and
the Peace Commission must take back
seats until the enemy has been whip
ped and forced to surrender. Gen.
Otis has not sufficient number of men
to accomplish this end 1t is believed
that he has so informed the War De-
partment, but the officials will not adj
NIT it. They do admit, however, that
the outlook for an early peace is very
gloomy, and that more troops are bad
ly needed in the Philippines. Just
how to meet this situation is a ques-
ton which confronts them and requires
decision.
1t is expected that the President will
discuss all phases of the situation with
the cabinet Tuesday and reach an early
decision.

OF Virginia; on the march; at the hos

little hillocks to show the last rest

Shall we estimate the numbers of the
unknown dead on the field of battle?
Oh, what history would be written
If we could publish the names of those
unknown heroes! But they have all
gone. They now sleep that sleep that
knows no Weakening till that great day
when they shall be resurrected to their
reward. Sacred be the spot where
they lie. and hallowed be their mem

shall survive, let patriots gather at
these sacred shrines and strew their
graves with flowers. and dedicate
themselves anew to patriotism and
love of country.
And now let me say that finally as
result of the heroic devotion Of these

earth bursts forth in song; the hills

all periodically do our duty, never for

Numbering that we are men; that we

Let us never, never neglect the duties
which this day enjoins upon us"

AT MANILA.
Elaborate Ceremonies Fl cid at the Capital
ofthe Philippines.


ofthe Philippines.
Manila, May 30.-7:50 p. m.-Memo-
rial Day was celebrated at Battery
Knoll, where Scott's guns were plant
ed against the Filipino trenches in the
first days fighting at Manila. Nearly
three hundred soldiers lie buried there
in a bleak mound surrounded by the
rice fields, rough boards marking the
graves, which were ranged in five I'M
broken rows. Beyond these are Span
ish block houses and bamboo hedges,
which were mown by shells from the
American guns.
The soldiers who could be spared
went to Battery Knoll, bearing bronzed
flowers with which to strew their
comrades graves. A silk flag was
placed above each mound. The day
was as mild as New England spring
day when, just before sunset, a few
hundred Americans gathered in cir
Gle around Battery Knoll in blue and
brown uniforms. Among the soldiers
were groups of American ladies and
brown-faeed natives peering/ curiously
at the unwonted spectacle from points
near by. The guns of the monitor
Monodonack bombarding Paranaque,
doomed significant reminder of the
nearnesS of war. Just as the Eighth
artillery band began dirge the thun-
der of the Monadnock's guns ceased,
while taps sounded from the bugle.
Col. Charles DENLY, of the United
States Philippine Commission, presided
at the exercises. He spoke briefly of
the peculiar solemnty of the day to
Manila. The chaplain of the British
cruiser Powerful made an invocation
Chaplain Pierce, of the Twenty-third
infantry, and Chaplain Cressey, of the
Minnesota volunteers, delivered ora
tons and the soldiers sung appropriate
hymns.
After taps had been sounded soldiers
took the flags from the graves to send
| to relatives of the dead.
Similar services were held over the
dead in the Paco cemetery this after
noon. Col. DENLY was the orator on
this occasion. The graves were
decorated with vast quantity of mag
nificent flowers.
High mass for the dead of the Ro-
man Catholic communion was cele-
brated at the Pace cemetery in the
morning. Orations were delivered by
Fathers McKinnon and McQuade. and
Chaplain Stevenson, of the Idaho regi-
ment.

THE TRIAL.

Paris, May 30.-There were few in
dicationS of excitement in the vicinity
of the Palace of Justice to-day before
the Court of Cessation resumed its sit
tings for the hearing of arguments in
the Dreyfus case and for the examina-
ton of Mn. Deroulede and Marcel Ha-
bert. The same precautions were OBJ
served as on yesterday for the preser-
walton of order. The arrival of the
judges and others connected with the
two celebrated cases was marked by no
unusual incident. The interior of the
Court of Cessation presented the same
aspect as On yesterday, the same ladies
occupying seats in the galleries. Be-
hind President Mazeau there were seat
ed many judges and other court ofIic-
ials, public men, and distinguished
men of letters. The same impressive
silence was observed when the sitting
opened at noon.
NJ. Ballot de Baupre resumed the
reading of his report on the Dreyfus
case.
NJ De Beaupre said that if, in 1894,
the officers of the courtmartial lad
thought it was not their duty TO show
Dreyfus the documents concerning nim
the judges, not being lawyers, had
erred thereby
ACTING IN GOOD FAITH.
NJ De Beaupre then entered at length
into a consideration of the arguments
of the anti-revisionists who, he said.
contend that even il the document
zee canaille de d." should be shown
not to refer to Dreyfus it would be
no reason for revision because the doc
ument was not responsible for the con-
viction of DreyfuS. The Vaccinations
of Count De Clam and Col. Henry, ii
had also been argued, gave no ground
for revision because they had been dis
avowed by Gen. Gonse, assistant chief
of the general staff, and his superior,
Gen. Boisdeffre.
Nj. De Beaupre created a deep SEN
sation by solemnly declaring that ne
had become convinced that the border
eau was written by Major Count Ferdi-
nand Walsin Esterhazy.
NJ Ballot De Beaupre concluded his
report upon the Dreyfus case by asking
for a revision of the verdict of condem-
nation and retrial of Captain Dreyfus
by a courtmartial.
NJ. De Beaupre read fresh repor s
drawn up by NJ. Manau. the procurator
general. on Saturday last in view OF
the recent developments, enumerating
TEN FRESH FACTS
in favor of Dreyfus. viz:
1.-The Henry forgery
2-The changing Of the date Of the
bordereau TO August instead of April

The Day General Holiday in the Metro

New York, May 30-With the holt
day parades, the flying of flags, sports
of all kinds, the usual decorations of
graves and speech-making, Memorial
Day was we'll celebrated in New York
and vicinity.
The sun shone brightly and a light
breeze kept the heat from becoming op-
pressive. EARLY in the day thousands
of excursionists were thronging at the
exits of Manhattan Island, pouring over
in ferry boats from Long Island and
New Jersey, some bound for the sea-
shore, some for the farms and some for
the cemeteries, where now in addition
to the dead of the civil war there lay
in a few instances. the dead of the war
with Spain. The graves of these re-
ceived the same tender care that for
years has marked the soldier dead.
But during the exodus both from
Manhattan and Brooklyn was of more
than usual proportions there remained
an urban contingent that did full JUS
tice to the parades that filed through
the city streets. There were several
professions in honor of the day, but
the more important were the military
