is Causing Serious Trouble for the British

London, April 9-In view Of the
cabled reports that many of the Ameri-
can soldiers from Cuba have been at
tackled by cerebro spinal meningitis, a
representative of The Associated Press
saw the medical authorities of me var
Office with reference to the dispatch
from Cairo to the Daily Telegraph, say
ing that all the Anglo-Egyptian troops
have been removed from Omdurman
owing to the persistence of cerebro
spinal meningitis, due to the former
unsanitary condition Of the town. Sur
geon Major Muir, who has just re
turned from the Soudan, says:
''The position there is extremely
serious. We had this trouble from the
first with the Egyptian troops. out the
British soldiers did not suffer because
they were surrounded by the utmost
precautions. The disease is due to IN
sanitary conditions, such as probably
prevail in the case of the hastily or
ganized Cuban campaign. Our cam
paign ON the Upper Nile was planned
with time on our favor, and thus the
best sanitary arrangements could be

THE SERVICES
Over the Remains Of the Andrews
and ST. John Families, Held Yes
terday Afternoon-An Immense
Crowd Present.

New York, April 9.-The funeral SER
vices over the remains of the six men,
berS of the family of Wallace G. An
drews and Gamhliel G.. ST. John, who
persisted in Friday mornings terrible
fire, were held at the Fifth avenue
home of the Andrews family this after
noon. The funeral services were SIM
pie, and none but the very intimate
friends and relatives of the family were
in attendance. The funeral grafton
was delivered by Prof. Felix Adler, of
the Ethical Culture Society. From one
O'Clock until after the funeral cortege
had started ON it's way to the Grand
Central Station two hours later, Fifth
avenue in the vicinity of the Andrews
home was choked with a surging,
curious crowd. Fifty policemen kept
the immense crowd in order
The baskets containing the remains
of the dead, six in all were placed in
the back parlor Of the palatial resi-
dence and arranged in the shape of a
crescent. In the center was the caSket
containing the remains of Mrs st.
John and on either side of her and a
little to the rear were those Of her
two baby SONS, Wallace and Orson. On
the outside to the right of Mrs. st.
Johns casket was that of Mr. Andrews,
while ON the other side was that of his
wife. At the foot of his mothers cof-
fin was that of Frederick ST. John.
All of the caskets were almost hidden
by flowers. In front of the coffin IF
Frederick SIT. John was a bank of roses
and lilies four feet high. Covering the
collins and strewn about among them
were innumerable floral tributes that
had been sent to the house.
There were no ceremonies save the
grafton delivered by Prof. Adler; nor
was there any music All was plain
and simple, in accordance with the
wishes of Mr.. SIT. John. At the con-
clusion of the services the crowd slow
ly filed out of the house and the cas-.
kets were placed in hearses and driven
to the Grand Central Station, whence
they were taken to Woodlawn ceme-
terry by a special train. The caskets
were taken to the station in SIX
hearses, driven two abreast.
The pall-bearers were: Russell Sage,
Gen. Burnett, Col. Robert G. Ingersoll
James w. Halves, w. ]. Hitchcock, g.
E. Orvis, Mr.. Williams, Senator T. c.

Admiral Dewey again gave evidence
that the brave are always modest, by
declaring that he is in no way fitted
by education, training or environment
for the Presidency. Admiral Dewey
is mistaken. A President needs no
special line of training. Men of many
different sorts of occupation have been
President. We have had soldier Presi-
dents, why not sailor President?
The chief requisites the people demand
in a President is firrnness, responsible
ity, integrity and patriotism, and the
gallant Admiral is not lacking in any
of these qualities.

The greatest factors in the advance
ment of state socialism, which is now
finding expression in movements for
municipal ownership, are the trusts,
which just now have full sway through
out the land, having been guaranteed
immunity from the law by the national
administration highest law officer.
The people are being rapidly educated
these days, and where state socialism
used to be tabooed as something for
eign and dangerous, it is now welcom-
ed as any sort of public ownership or
government control would be welcomed
in preference to continued control by
the trusts.

A great deal of interest is manifested
in the proposed experiment by the
government in the cure of conSump-
ton. Certainly no harm can follow it.,
and much good may result to suffering
humanity.
The official plans as published con-
template the establishment at Fort
Stanton, N. NJ, of sanitarium, the
reservation of ten thousand acres be-
ing set apart for that purpose. There
will be erected suitable buildings and
army physicians, nurses and attend
ants regularly detailed for the work
there.
The first patients admitted will be
soldiers, sailors and marines suffering
from consumption. Later government
clerks and other employees will be adj
mitted. And finally, if the experiment
proves a success, cases of private citi-
zens will be taken for treatment.
In the event of the success of the
experiment, it is safe to say that the
ten thousand acre reservation will be
none too large TO accommodate the hos
pital buildings that will have to De
erected if the government shall under
take to handle all the cases that will
flock to it for relief, since, not being a
money-making scheme, it will be with
in the reach of all classes and rich and
poor alike.
There is great promise in the under
taking. Even if not successful in the
positive cure of consumption, it will
furnish much definite and authoritative
data, which will be of great value to
medical science.
Surgeon General Wyman is confident
that consumption can be cured BY
proper treatment and under favorable
climatic conditions, and the whole
scientific world, as we'll as very large
portion of suffering humanity, will
watch the results of the governments
experiments with keenest interest.

BUT HOW ABoUrtTHE BIG FELLOWS?

BUT HOW About THE BIG FELLOWS?
The country is Just now being treated
to an interesting and instructive, if
rather spectacular bluff at enforce
ment of the federal antitrust statute.
Solicitor Gen. Richards, with the ap-
prevail of Attorney General Griggs, has
ordered Federal District Attorney
Bundy to bring suit against the Ches-
apeake and Ohio and seventeen other
coal companies comprising what is
known as the coal trust-not the big
anthracite concern, bear in mind. Suit
has been filed for an injunction against
all theimembefs to prevent them carry
ing outthe agreement, which is declar-
ed to be trust in restraint of trade and
unlawful. It is also asked that the
trust or combination be declared dis
solved as void and illegal. Proceed
ings will be by bill of equity in the
United States Circuit Court of South
ern Ohio.
The combination issaccused of being
a conspiracy to regulate the wages of
labor, to fix the rate of freight to limit
the output and raise the price of coal in
Ohio and other States. 1t is alleged,
also, that the trust is destroying COM
petition. The injunction asked is to
prevent the combine from selling coal
outside the State in (which it's compon-
ent corporations have charters.
Good, Mr.. President and Mr.. Attorney
General, very good-so far as it goes.
But what is the difference between this
little seven by nine combination, a
veritable minnow among trust whales,
and Pierpont Morgan's $500. 100000 An
thracite Trust recently organized or
the Sugar trust, or the big steel trusts,
or scores of other mighty and long
standing combinations in bold restraint
Of trade which have never thrived so
steadily nor been SO free from inter-
ference, nor been able to boost their
watered stock to such fabulous prices as
they have since the election of Will
liam Mckinley?
What of these?
How comes it that riggs-erstwhile
trust attorney of New Jersey-has sud-
denly pitched on the very least of the
trusts after SO long ignoring that there
were such things as trusts and on top
of a proclamation promising them inn
munity from prosecution by federal
authorities?
Why go whaling in a puddle when
the great sea is full of whales?
The truth is the administration, see
ing the signs of popular unrest under
the grinding trust system, and fearing
the peoples indignation at its apathy
toward the trusts, has seen the neces-
sity of doing something" to stop the
rising tide Of criticism-for it is get
ting dangerously near campaign time.
Hence the order from headquarters to
make an example" of the comparative
~ small and insignificant G. & o. coal

a SENSATION
Caused in Paris by FiRaro's Publ
cation of the Evidence in the
Dreyfus Case.

London, April 9.-The Paris Figaro's
revelations in the publication of the
evidence presented to the court of cas-
sation in the Dreyfus case is the sensa-
ton of Paris, and has revived the keen
est interest in the Dreyfus affair. The
Dreyfusites are highly pleased with the
publication of the dispositions, which in
fact, are apparently approved by the
whole mass of sober opinion in France.
The Figaro's bold step is particularly
interesting, as last year its editor un-
expectedly championed Dreyfus, with
the result that the paper lost a great
number of subscribers and the proprie-
tors removed the editor from his post.
The Figaro has now taken a step
which has drawn upon it the formid-
able hostility of the general staff of the
war Office, which desired secrecy and
whose reputation is grievously damag-
ed by the publication Of the dispositions
in which there are evidences that the
war department engineered different
trials, influenced witnesses and had the
intention Of preventing the exculpation
of Dreyfus. but the motive of the war
department in SO doing still remains
obscure.
The dispositions show that both NJ
Cavaigmac, the former minister of war,
and Gen. Roget, who reinstated the
whole OF the general staff. failed to
produce any direct evidence against
Dreyfus.
The testimony of Examining Magis-
trate Bertulus was very damaging. He
declared plainly his opinion that Lieut.
Col. Patty de Clam and Major Count
Esterhazy are the guilty men.
NO NEW FACTS.
Paris, April 9.-The testimony of
Gen. Billot, Foreign Minister for War,
before the court of cessation in the
Dreyfus case, as published in The FL
caro-, was mainly of negative char
acter, and did not contain any new
facts except the assertion that the
brothers of Dreyfus told Gen. Sandherr
on December IS, 1894, that they were
ready to offer their whole fortune for
the discovery of the real culprit This
was the beginning of the Dreyfus cam
paign taken up by Col. Picquart.
