OF Mr.. Stafford's address at the Burns
monument unveilng in Barre the Mont
pelier Watchman says:
"The oration was delivered by Wendell
P. Stafford OF st. Johnsbary. Soon after
his famous Memorial Day oration in
Barre this year, Mr.. Stafford was hon
ored with an invitation to deliver the
address today. He was unanimously
selected by the Burns Club as the best
man in the country Tor the occasion.
Mr.. Stafford's splendid oration today
justified the wisdom of the committee
having the affair in charge"
The Burlington News printed it in full
and said, I'VE trust that none of our
readers will skip word of the oration
by Wendell Phillips Stafford, which we
print in full today. 1t is an able, polished
and eloquent effort, and will give Mr..
Stafford an enhanced reputation as
thinker and orator"

of the man, as he is we'll known by the
Butte officers.
Lomax was arrested in Mainville and
he looked very much surprised when
Chief O'Brien touched him on the Shout
der and told him he was the man he
was looking for.
what do you want with me? Why
am l arrested?" asked Lomax.
O'Brien just answered by saying that
he was the man the police was looking
for and LomaX was marched off to jail
and placed in a cell. When searched
no money was found in his pockets. In
one of his pockets were found four ra-
zors, but the prisoner gave no eXplana-
ton for his carrying an improvised ar
Senal.
The robbery with which LomaN is
charged with being implicated is al
legged to have been committed on sun
day evening in Carson's saloon in Butte.
w. t McGonigal was in the saloon
sleeping when Sergeant McGrath and
Detective Murphy saw Carson going
through his pockets. Then entered the
saloon and placed Carson under arrest
They found s10.65 in the pocketbook.
McGonical, on reaching the jail, said
he had $50 when he entered the place.
He had a few drinks and paid for them
with a $40 bill which he took from his
pocketbook. A few minutes later he
fell asleep and does not remember any
thing which occurred after that.

GERMANY'S POSITION.
No Report Yet Received From the Com
mander of the Fake.

man0er OF Ine rake.
Berlin, April 10-Since his interview
with Emperor William, United States
Ambassador White has met the Ger
man minister of foreign affairs. Baron
Won Buelow, and the British ambassa-
dor here, Sir Frank Lascell, and has
cabled the result at considerable length
in cipher to Washington. 1t is under
stood on good authority that there is
nothing indicative of belligerency in
the dispatch, but that it related to the
desire of the German government to
stand by the Berlin treaty and return
to the provisional arrangements made
by the three consuls and hasten the APP
pointment and the work of the commits
sion as much as possible.
high foreign official. speaking Of
Baron Won Buelow to the associated
press correspondent said: We have
not received a dispatch from the COM
mander of the Fake and do not believe
the story told about the strained rela
tons between the German warship
commander and Admiral Kautz. We
would have heard of it officially if it had
been true.
I'VE have not received any advices
affirming the proclamation of Consul
Rose At any rate, the argument of
the American press that Herr Rose is
responsible for the trouble is wrong, as
such a proclamation, if issued, came
after Admiral kautzs action. which is
here considered to be violation of the
Samoan act.
IF Admiral Kautz stated in his pro-
clamaton that all the three consuls had
expressed willingness to annul the pro-
visional government, kautZ stated an
untruth, and Herr Rose could not be
blamed for issuing counter proclama-
ton. Z
However, the. German government
is thus far insufiiciently Informed as to
all of Herr Roses dCings and therefore
will not assume at the outset that Herr
Rose is right throughout. In any case
we must await further news. The Ger
man commissioner will be appointed
within a day or two. He will be thor
oughly unbiased. The appointment of
Mr.. Eliot of the British embassy at
Washington as the British representa-
tive on the Samoan commission is
deemed satisfactory"

life of ease, but for the life of strenu-
GUS endeavor. The Goth century looms
before us big with the fate of many
nations. If we stand idly by, if we
seek merely swollen, siothfu1 ease and
ignoble peace, if we shrink from the
hard contests where men must win at
hazard of their lives and at the risk of
all they hold dear, then the holder and
stronger peoples will pass US by and
will win for themselves the domination
of the world. Let us therefore boldly
face the life of strife, resolute to do
our duty well and manfully: resolute
to uphold righteousness by deed and by
word: resolute to be both honest and
brave. to serve high ideals, yet to use
practical methods. Above all, let us
shrink from no strife, moral or physi
cal, within or without the nation, pro-
vded we are certain that the strife is
justified: for it is only through strife,
through hard and dangerous endeavor,
that we shall ultimately win the goal

HIS BOOM IS LAUNCHED


the early sos the attention of the. ma
ton became directed to our naval
needs. Congress most wisely made a
series of appropriations to build up a
new navy, and under a succession of
abb and patriotic secretaries, of both
political parties, the navy was grad
ually built up, until it's material be-
came equal to its splendid personnel
with the result that last summer it
leaped to it's proper place as one of the
most brilliant and formidable fighting
navies in the entire world. We rightly
pay all honor to the men controlling
the navy at the time it won these great
deeds. honor to Secretary Long and
Admiral Dewey, to the captains who
handled the ships in action, to the dar-
ing lieutenants who braved death in
the smaller craft, and to the heads of
bureaus at Washington who saw that
the ships were so commanded. so
armed, so equipped, so well engined as
to insure the best results. But let US
| also keep ever in mind that all of this
would not have avaled if it had not
been for the wisdom of the men who
during the preceding 10 years had built
up the navy; keep In mind the secre-
| taries of the navy during these years:
| keep in mind the senators and con-
| gressmen who by their votes gave the
money necessary to build and to armor
the ships, to construct the great guns

those who actually did build the ships
the armor and the guns; and remember
the admirals and captains who handled

merry and the power of acting together,

HELD FOR THE COURTS.
Greene for Attempting FrauduIentIy
to Cash "a Money Order.


United States Commissioner Lewis in
vestigated yesterday the case against
Henry c. Greene, colored, charged with
the fraudulent appropriation of a money
order for $1.10, and though the evidence
against the prisoner was not perfectly
convincing he was held under $500 bail.
This he win probably furnish to-day.
The negro walked up to the money or
der department in the postoffice last Mon
day and asked the clerk 10 cash an order
It was drawn by Miss T. Iege to the or
Ger of the Cosmopolitan University, Irv-
ington, n. Y, and was for $.l0. II was
Endorsed PAY to Henry c. Greene. c.
Johnson" The fact that the order was
drawn here and on a postonice in dis
taut state attracted and held the atten-
ton of the clerk, and he proceeded to
make whatever investigation of the mat
ter was possible at the time. He came TO
the conclusion that the negro had not
come rightfully by the money order, which
he claimed TO have purchased from a man
on the street, and had him arrested He
was lodged in jail, and the case was in
vestigated by the commissioner yesterday.
Miss Lege testified that she had placed
the money order in a letter and the letter
in box at the postohice, and that this
was the last she had known about the
matter. Greene was positive in his state
ment that he had bought the letter from
another man. al Bull street ana Congress
lane, and this man he said he could identi-
fly positively. The man had tod him, &c.
cording to Greenes statement, that the
order was worth $40, but had finally sold
Il 10 him for $l.25, a greater amount ever
then than was called for by its face.
Postofiice Inspector Peer came to Sa,
vannah and Investigated the case, and viii

the negro is being held and should there
be other developments, viii be on hant
