THE SOLDIER DEAD.
Remains of Sixty-Six Buried in Ar
ingtOn Today,

The remains of sixty-six Of the victims of
the Spanish-American war were inferred
today in the plot set apart for the purpose
at the Arlington national cemetery The
ceremonies attending were extremely sim
pie Very few people were present to wit
ness the exercises, and those who brayed
the rain and discomforts of walking in the
mud were for the most part officials or
relatives of some of the deceased soldiers.
The services proceeded despite the inclem-
ency Of the weather, and were conducted
on the same general plan as on the pre-
ceding similar occasions. The full garrt-
son from Fort Myer was not ordered out,
and the post band kept indoors. As a con-
sequence the ceremonies were void of many
customary features A firing detail from
Fort Myer. composed of about fifty men,
was stationed in front of the graves the
soldiers having pianks upon which to stand
to prevent them from sinking ankle deep
in the mud.
The exercises were under the direction of
Col True of the quartermaster's depart
ment, L. S. A, assisted by Mr. c. L. Nil
Ter. Promptly at 1 o'clock the services be-
gan. Rev. D. ]. Stafford, D. D., and Rev.
Father Dolan of St Patricks Church read
the ritual of the dead for the Catholic
Church. while Rev Mr. Patton, assistant
minister at St Johns Church. corner of
10th and H streets. read the Impressive
service Of the Episcopal faith. The firing
party discharged three VolieyS over the
rows of boxes and taps were sounded by
bugler from the Fort Myer garrison.
After the performance Of their duties the
soldiers were marched back to the fort
with their guns beneath their capes to pro-
tect the weapons from the rain.
Among the bodies inferred was that of
Louis Wagner, former Georgetown boy,
whose father and uncle attended the serv-
ices this morning. Young Wagner enlisted
as a private in Company A, 18th United
States Infantry. and died June II. 1899, at
Puerto Principe. He was a son of Mr. H
August Wagner of 1921 NJ street.
The body of another young soldier named
Coleman was also in the same lot, and
relatives Of the young man were at the
cemetery to witness the burial. Coleman
was in the regiment with Wagner. and
when the latter died Coleman was one of
the pallbearers. The survivor succumbed
shortly after the burial and his body and
that of Wagner were exhumed at the same
time. both being shipped to New York on
the same transport for burial In their ma
tive country. The relatives of both SOL
diers mutually extended each other SYM

BUTLER HAS WON
Continued from First Page.)

/ few months. but the tidings of Tuesday and
| today have made 1t all seem like a gloomy
nightmare, the shadow of a night that is
passed.
| THE credit for our success rests with Lord
Roberts. as fully as If he himself had rid
den into Ladysmith. The sufferngs and
prfva tons are over. and the empire tenders
| a tribute OF gratitude and admiration to
Gen. White and his immortal garrison
The Pail Mall Gazette says it believes it
| Is impossible to forecast the result of the
relief of Ladysmith on the duration of the
war. which may yet cuIminate in a pro-
tracted struggle before Pretoria"
The Westminster Gazette says:
Tine news this morning obliterates for
costly and we fear we must add wasts1ul
operations that has gone before in ten
days. Thanks to the admirable strategy Of
Roberts and Kitchener, the whole situation
| is revolutionized."
Queen Sends Congratulations.
The queen has telegraphed her congrat-
ulations to Gen. Butler and Gen. White, and
the Prince Of Wales has telegraphed his
congratulations to General Butler.
At Portsmouth the naval comnander-in-
chief announces the relief of Ladysmith by
a general signal. the great dockyards and
war vessels greeting it with cheers.
what the next move will be remains as
or Gen. Buffers dispatch.
Lord Dundonald is assumed to have made
wide turning movement eastward, skirt
Ing Bulwaua Hill. and Gen. Butler may
reasonably be expected to be in Ladysmith
with the bulk Of his forces by tonight.
Whether. like Roberts, at Kimberley, he
VIII be able to turn the tables on the re-
treating Beers. remains to be seen. But
opinion here tnclines to the belief that no
aggressive movement can be Immediately
undertaken by Gen. Buffers and Gen.
Whites forces, hence Lord Roberts Is
likely to soon have to face the enemy
heightened by large reinforcements from
ali sides,
While 1t is generally realized that Lord
Roberts strategy is mainly responsible for
the relief Of Ladysmith, there is feeling
of anxiety lest his plans suffer from the
hordes Gen. Butler might let slip into the
Free State. Evidently Lord Roberts Is
awake to the situation.
1t ts reported in London, but the news is
not confirmed. that Gen. French has al
ready reached Bloemfontein, which is not
improbable. as the Beers are scarcely ex-
pected to make a stand there.
Kitchener at Arundel.
The significance Of Gen. Kitchener's pres
snce at Arundel is not yet explained: but
wherever he goes something is likely to
happen. and developments may shortly
show strategic plans as interesting as those
which eliminated in the defeat Of Gen.
Cronje.
Lady White. in a message in reply to
congratulations, says:
All the world is. in sympathy with me
today and I am in sympathy with all the
world. am delighted at the Joyful news
OF the relief and am happy at the tntelli-
gence that my husband is we'll and safe at
last. As wife can say no more. What
happy wife could say more?''
