One Man Engaged His Attention
While the Other Struck Him,
FIRED UPON THE PROWLER.
Capt Riddle Thinks IL Was Intended
TO Blow Up Vault Containing
Presidenrs Body.

Canton, O., Sept. SO.-private De
prend who was doing guard duty be-
aide the vault in which the body Of
president Mckinley rests was mys-
terlously attacked last night by two
men. Capt Bidde, in command OF the
company of regulars, thinks an at
tempt was made to blow the vault 10
pieces as one of the men carried a
white package. While one Of the
strangers engaged the attention OF the
sentinel the other struck him over the
head and also attempted to stab him.
II was nearly o'clock when Guard
De Prend saw a prowler in the rear OF
the vault behind tree and In shad-
ow. Upon being challenged by the SOL
dier the man remained motionless be-
hind tree. He was then about forty
feet from the soldier. DE Prend ad-
vanced, made second challenge and
brought his gun ready to iire. The
man In the meantime had lodged away
~ a second tree about ten feet distant
from the first. The soldier renewed his
challenge and fired, but as he did so
a hard blow was given the gun and
his aim missed. A second man had
stealthily come up TO the soldier and
dealt the blow At the same time man
number two struck the soldier with a
heavy instrument In the back and at
tempted to stab him. a cash IL
shaped and about two inches long each
way was cut through the clothing. in
Guiding the overcots and small
scratch was made on DePredend's
body The blow was 80 hard that De
Predend was knocked down a small
hill and was unable TO regain his feet
before the men disappeared In the
darkness. Lieut.. Ashbridge who was
officer of the day, as soon as he heard
the challenge and shot rushed TO the
assistance of the guard. He was fol-
lowed by other soldiers.
The sentinel attacked, however, was
In the rear Of the vault, on hill, and
before the relief force could climb the
hill the men had escaped A hunt was
made for the providers. but no trace
could be found Of them. The vault Is
but a short distance from the west
edge OF the cemetery and the men EVIL
IDENTIFY escaped from there into the
fields and woods near by.
The man who lodged about the trees,
De Predend says, carried a shining
weapon in one hand and package
done up In white in the other. He says
he could recognize the man ever
seen again. The man who at.c"ked
him was masked.
That Capt. Biddle believes an attempt
was made to blow the vault to pieces
Is shown by the fact that he put on an
extra guard around the vault and in
various portions of the cemetery the
balance OF the night. All the men of
tine company. seyenty-flve in number,
were ordered TO be ready TO turn out
on the first alarm sounded.

MISS ELLEN H. STONE.

what extent mistakes In the conduct
OF the war had been caused by the
cabinet now and again taking direct
control of the army operations has. he
says, moi yet been ascertained, but II Is
known that political questions have in
some instances oyerruled military ex-
pediency. well organized army
should be capable OF adapting its oper-
atlons to the ever changing views OF
the cabinet although these changes may
lead to lavish expenditure and greatly
deferred success The increased num-
Der of troops required was due to i'm
perfect training of the British soldiers
and the absence of regulations defining
the duties and functions Of the gen
eral officers In their several grades.
Sir Chas. Warren, probably speaking
from personal experience points out
that the keeping of an officer second in
command OF a battalion on tenterhooks
for four years may so sap his charac-
ter of the most essential qualities for
command that he may when his turn
comes be of less value when selected
for command than he would have been
under a system Of seniority.
IRISH ARE FOR BoERS.
London, Sept 3O.-Discussng the
Irish question and the South African
situation, the Times In an editorial to-
day says the nation will never again
trust the government of the British
empire TO a party which can be made
and unmade by the british nationalists
The South African war and the atti-
tude OF the Irish during the war have
brought home the danger OF such a
step more forclbly than ever TO the
whole people. Throughout the war the
irish party have spared no pains to
show that they are persistent and de-
termined enemies Of the empire. The
demonstration has not been lost on
the nation.
NO INITIATIVE IN INTERVENTION
London, Sept Boa dispatch TO the
Times from Brussels says that the
council OF The Hague permanent court
Of arbitration has unanimously decided
that the question OF assuming the in
ltlative In arbitration or Intervention
In any form in regard TO the South
African war must be definitely aban-
doned.
This decision. It Is stated, probably
accounts for the fact that the date Of
the meeting OF the council TO consider
the appeal Of the Boer representatives
in Europe had not been fixed. and IL Is
not likely that such a meeting will
take place for considerable time.

The re-enllstment OF the imperial

few sound men are forthcoming and 1t
is doubtful whether the order will have
any real effect, Numbers OF unfit men
have offered to rejoin, but as Lord
Kitchener does not want them the war
office has had TO refuse their services.
During the last fourteen days only 100
men have been re-enlisted. The men
Of the old yeomanry do not think the

as there is no separate allowance for
families. Medically unit yeomanry

South Africa, every transport bringing
some home. Out of 10000 men over
1900 have been sent back as useless.
No doubt when the parties responsible
for passing these men are found CEN
sure will be very severe.
There seems TO be no doubt that Lord
Kitchener has requested $4,000 more
mounted men and larger powers for
dealing with the Beers In the field. All
sorts OF rumors are in circulation and
it is even said that the king summoned
a meeting OF the cabinet TO consider
