BENTHEIM'S STATEMENT.
State Department. Officials Inclined to
Dfscredit II.


WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-The officials Of
the State Department have been much in
terested in the remarkable story of the art
list, Bentheim, of Atlanta, Ga, of his con-
nection with the German secret service.
The point i'm his narrative that particularly
attracts the attention of the State Depart
ment' is the allegation that the United
States deputy and vice consul at Sonneberg
has been serving as German agent to con-
vey secrets relative to war material stolen
from the French government, and that the
official has used the United States consul
ate and the official letter heads and envel-
opes of the consulate to further his ends.
The records of the department show that
Alvin F1orschultz was appointed vice and
deputy United States consul at Sonneberg
in 1885, He has been connected with the
banking business in that town, and resigned
banks to accept the position in the consul
ate. His record is exceptionally, good.
When. the consulate was removed from
Sonneberg to Coblenz. Florschultz went
along. He has given satisfaction at every
point, and has frequently discharged the
official. He still holds his place.
Inquiry made into the accuracy of the de-
tailed statements made by Bentheim ap-
pears to confir most of them. His claim
that he was a soldier in the Two-hundred-
and-second regiment of New York and dis
charged in Washington is borne out by the
War Department records. Notwithstanding
this. the officials of the State Department
discredit Bentheim's statements, though
now that they have been given such pub
Lefty, IL may be found expedient TO quietly
investigate the matter.
The German embassy treats the Bentheim
story lightly. and while the officials say
there are a number of circumstances re-
ferring TO his alleged employment in the
military service at Berlin which are con-
sistent with the established system there
yet they will not dignity the story by going
into details. Sculptor Trentanove. who is
mentioned as the one who will be visited by
Bentheim in Washington, has gone abroad.

was the next witness. He looked straight
at the judges while testifying. He pre-
coded his evidence by saying that he wished
to throw full light his conduct in this
case. When Dreyfus was convicted, the
witness said, he was convinced, like every
body else, of the prisoners guilt, but vio-
lent diatribes on the fact that Dreyfus was
a Jew awakened his suspicious. He there
fore consulted NJ. Hanotaux, late prime min
lister OF France, and the latter informed the
witness OF the existence OF the "Cette
canaille de D." document, though NJ
Hanotaux failed to inform him that it had
been impaired to the judges OF the first
court-martial unknown to the prisoner. This
fact the witness learned later.
Senator Trarieux, whose statement was
practically an impassioned speech for the
defense, proceeded TO denounce the secret
communication of the document as a mon
strous illegality and violation Of the most
sacred rights of the defense; The witness
described as impossible the hypothesis adj
vanced by NJ. Teyssonieres to convince the
witness that Dreyfus was guilty. The wit
nesss doubts were confirmed when he heard
that Nj. Scheurer- Kestner had secured
proofs or the innocence OF Dreyfus and the
guilt of another.
NJ. Trarieux dwelt on the noble ideal of
Nj. Scheurer-Kestner, who. although unac-
quainted with Dreyfus, passed seepless
nights tormented with the thought that
blood. When NJ. Scheurer-Kestner revealed
what he knew the witness was greatly sur
prised. especially when he learned that
Lieutenant Colonel Picquart had not sue
ceeded in obtaining the support OF the chiefs
of the army. The witness said he was
amazed that the latter had not eagerly
grasped the opportunity TO work together
for the rehabilitation of an innocent man.
NJ TrarieuX said he could not agree to a
single conclusion reached by General Gonse
in his correspondence with Lieutenant
Colonel Picquart, and said the latters re-
moval from the secret intelligence depart
ment was the result of underhand plotting
by some one opposed TO revision. The wit
ness enumerated in support of this state
ment various forged documents which he
asserted had emanated from the secret in

TO Seize a Thousand Islands.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE Admin
istration has determined to rapidly eN-
tend the jurisdiction Of the United
States over the whole OF the Philippine
group, acting on the theory that delay
in this ease is dangerous, and that an
archy and general paralysis OF such
interests as the island support will be
brought about through failure to
promptly replace the Spanish sover-
eighty over the islands by that OF the
United States. This decision involves
the necessity OF a naval campaign, and
this will be instituted IS soon us Adj
miral Dewey receives the reinforce
ments in the shape of gunboats OF the
way to Manila.
1t was not anticipated that there will
be necessity for any formidable de-
monstrations, but the fact that the
United States Government is able to
exhibit a sufficient force to accomplish
the purpose of occupation is expected
to deter the natives from profitlcss re-
sistance. Owing to the vast number Of
the Philippine Islands large number
OF gunboats would be required to visit
them simultaneously, so the programme
will be to have tic vessels visit IN
order the principal towns outsidc=ot
Manila.
The naval vessels probably will be
accompanied by some troop transports,
and tile soldiers Willie landed where
necessary to hoist the United States
flag and take possession formally OF
the ports. 1t is understood that there
will be no attempt made at this time to
displacc any Of the existing municipal
governments, except where they prove
refractory and offer resistance. In
fact, Il policy of conciliation will be
followed at all points in the treatment
rf thc natives.

Washington's Personal Bravery.

Paul Leicester Ford, in his book on
the true George Washington, gives
many facts not known before. His
personal courage was Of a remarkably
high order. Jefferson, indeed, said
that '1he was incapable of fear, meet
ing personal danger with the calmest
unconcern." ;" In his first battle, he
described the scene himself as follows:
"The right wing, where | Stood was
exposed to and received all the enemy S
fire. heard the bullets whistle, and,
believe me, there is something charm
ing in the sound.' In the engagement
with Braddock he exposed himself so
that IT had four bullets through my
coat and two horses shot under ME,
yet escaped unhurt, although death
was leveling my companions on every
side Of me. Yet this experience only
made him eager for the fighting at
Fort Duquesne.

sault, the British kept up an incessant
firing. His excellency General Wash

So, too, that more imposing and costly
monument, standing in the Capitol
grounds at Columbia, most fttingly
crowned with the statue Of a private
soldier, was the work Of the noble
women of the State, and in passing l
may be permitted to say that on the

Chesterfield, though one Of the poor

These few remarks cannot be better
concluded than by quoting the follow

tion engraved upon that monument:
Let the stranger, who may in future
times read this inscription, recognize
that these were men whom power
could not corrupt; whom death could
not terrify; whom defeat could not
dishonor, and let their virtues plead
for just judgment Of the cause in
which they perished. Let the South
Carolinian of another generation re-
member that the State taught them
how to die; and that from her broken
fortunes she has preserved for her
children the priceless treasure of their
memories, teaching all who may claim
the same birthright that truth, cour-
age and patriotism endure forever.
