WILL ASK CONGRESS-
 TO INVESTIGATE
Delay of the Conspiracy Cases
 at Savannah.
HE LAWS ARE INADEQUATE
Court Wants Something Done So That Prisoners Gan be Removed to An other State Without So
 Much Delay

Savannah, Ga, April S.-As a conse- quence of the action taken today by the United States district court, Judge Speer presiding. the attention of congress will be at once called to the delay in the cases of the Greenes and Gaynors, ex-captains of MT. Carters and others, for alleged con spiracy to defraud the government In con- nection with the improvements in Savan- nah river and haIlbor and Cumbeland Sound. It was developed during the pro- ceedings that the attention of President Mckinley himself had been directed to the matter as long ago as last December, in letter written to him by Judge Speer.
 The grand jury made a special present. ment in which it asks that congress amend the laws of the United States so that something can be done to bring men in- dicted by the United States grand juries from one state to another without such lengthy delays. It also pointedly crdticises United States Commissioner Shields in holding up for so long a time the heardng before him, and Judge Addison Brown of New York for his -dilatoriness in arriving at a decision in the matter The grand jury requests that its presentment be sent to the president the attorneygeneral and the senators and representatives in con- gress.
 "When I was officially informed of the direction which this case was taking in New York before the commissioner on De- cember 26 last I promptly wrote the presi- dent referring to his constitutional power to take care that the laws be faithfully executed and calling his attention to what seemed to me in this case to be an inter ference with that faithful execution, and an instance of disregard of the lawful process of the United States district courts which if acquiesced in so that 1t would be- come established practice, would, in my judgment, entail most serious consequences ito the administration of justice and the enforcement of the criminal laws of the United States. The president promptly acted upon my letter and immediately re- ferred it to the personal attention of the attorney general and advised me of that fact, and the attorney general directly in- tervened, and through his subordinate law officers has done all in his power to cause the removal of the parties accused so they may be held to answer Tn the language of the constitution for the crime with which they are indicted
 Judge Brown Is widely known to be a learned and conscientious judge. I am quite sure, however if he appreciated <he serious embarrassment to this court which has resulted in the delay and the danger to the proper trial of the accused he would have found some means to expedite the de- termination of the matter pending before him. and would have reached decision In accordance with his conceptions of the law.
 "In your recommendation to congress I do not hesitate to give my hearty concur renee"

REICHMAN'S STORY DENIED.
Washington Officials Don't Believe the
 American Officer Was Concerned.

Washington, April 3.-War department officials do not believe the story that comes from South Africa to the effect that Cap- tain Carl Reichman, Seventeenth infantry, was one of the leaders of the Boers at the last fight between the Boers and the Eng fish at Bloemfontein water works.
 Reichmans brother officers, men who know him well, say that it is very probable that Reichman occupied some conspicuous point of vantage from which to view the fighting and his discovery in uniform by the British was the basis for the assump- ton that he was one of the Boer leaders. Reichman was selected by General Miles personally to accompany the Boer forces during the war as an observer for the United States army. Reichman ranks high as scientific soldier, having been detailed with success ito observe the grand maneuv- CTS of the German army, as representa- tive of the United States army His col- leagues in Washington declare that the off, cer has too much common sense to be led into violation of his orders in the man. ner described. .3

DEWEY WILLING
 TO BE PRESIDENT
His Former Decision Declining
 the Honor Rescinded. HE COULD NOT REFUSE IT
Down by Congress to the Best of His Ability If He
 Is Elected.

New York, April IA special to the World from Washington says:
 Admiral Dewey authorizes the World b announce to the American people that af- ter mature reflection and in response to earnest entre,a ties from all parts of the country his former decision mot under any circumstances to ruin for the presidency is rescinded.
 A World correspondent saw the admiral at his home at o'clock last evening.
 Admiral Dewey said: II realize that the time has arrived when 1 must definitely defne' my position.
 When I arrived in this country last September sad then that nothing would induce me to be a candidate for the presd- dency.
 Since phen, however, I have had the leisure and inclination to study the matter, and have reached different conclusion, in- asmuch as so many assurances have come to me from my countrymen that I would be acceptable as a candidate for this great t ofiiee.4 If the American people want me for this high office I shall be only too will ing to serve them.
 Tt is the highest honor in the gift of this nation; what citizen would refuse it? .Sfnce studying this subject, 1 am con- vineedi that the office of president is not . such q very difficult one to fill, his duties being mainly to execute the laws of con- gress.
 "Sheuld be chosen for this exalted posi- tion, T would execute the laws of congress as faithfully as I have always executed the orders -of- -my superiors.''

RECAPTURE OF
 GUNS IS DENIED. No Prospect of British Regain-
 ing Them POLITICAL EFFECT IS GREAT No News Received of Battle With
 General French. THE FREE STATERS ARE KICKING  British Have Been Unable to Give Them the Protection They Prom ised-Their Fate is Con- sidered Hard
THE FREE sTATERS ARE KICKING

London April 4.-(6 a. m.)-No news has been received of the expected battle be- tween General French and the Boerss There is now but remote prospect of tho recapture of the guns. This, however, Is regarded as quite trifing compared with the political effects of the disaster. As the Boemfountein correspondent of the Times remarks. Commandent Olivers stategy in re-occupying Ladysmith and Thatsa N'Cht was bold and even brilliant. Most of his force is composed of Free Staters and the advantage gained by them will have most disturbing effect on the mind of the Free State population. sN
 The mpossibility of effecting complete protection for the moment, to all farmers in the south and southwest sections of the Free State is recognized at Bloemfontein. Men who surrendered under the prolama- ton of Lord Roberts are now being pun- ished for the reliance they placed In the ability of the British to protect them. As the correspondent further remarked, this is a hard fate, and every possible effort will be made to help them, but considera- ton for the sufferings of repentant bellig- erents at the hands of their fellow country- | men cannot be suffered to prejudice the mil- | itary plans of Lord Roberts,"
 Protection Is Important The Daily Telegraph which takes a more humane view says: E 'Tt is just important to protect those burghers who have trusted in our power and surrender all means of defending therrl- selves as it is to win victories against those who are still in arms"
 The Daily Chronicle, whose Captetown correspondent joyfully predicted that the war would be over in three months, says:
 "In order to re-establish our position in the Free State we need a brilliant success won on the scene of our latest reverse"
 It is announced from Springfontein that the censorship has again curtailed the dis- patches Therefore important develop- ments must be impending.
 The Chronicle says: "Reichman may be, like some other Americans, in sympathy with the Boers. He may even have unoffi. cially advised the Boer commandant, al- though this would have been exceedingly
 improper, but we cannot think he would take the command without previously res signing his American commission" There Is little news from other points. Mafeking was still besieged on March 20, and there are rumors that General Butler Is preparing to advance =

Spencer Wilkinson's Views

London April 4-Spencer Wilkinson, discussing the attack on Colonel Broad- woods detachment in the Morning Post, says:
 The attack was well planned and we'll executed. Colonel Broadwood, however, slxilfully evaded the stroke aimed at him. Possibly Lord Roberts has retired his in- fanfry with a view of encouraging the Boers to advance and to continue their at- tack. Probably nothing would suit him better than that they should attempt to move toward the railroad or to attack ir the direction of Bloemfontein.
 'sHe Is collecting remounts and stores in order to be in readiness for a renewal for a general advance and he will not be drawn away If the Boers venture tod near they will receive punishment"
