THE SCANDAL OF A COURT.
Stories From Paris That Empress

paris Cable in Philadelphia North Amer
lean Review, Aug. 12)
Was the late Dowager Empress Fred
erick secretly married in 1896 to Count
Won SeckendOrf?
In a story in the affirmative the
French papers are now reveling- Tt is
the European sensation Of the day. It
is believed to be true, and it is quite
likely that other sensations will soon
follow these revelations.
Your correspondent is able to give
curious confirmation to the rUmors Of
a marriage. I have been shown letters
written by the Baroness Won ROsbach,
who was formerly one of the chief Ia
dies in waiting to the empress. The
baroness insists that the empress and
Seckendorf were secretly married in
1885, that they lived together as man
and wife; that they had the deepest
affection for each other. and that their
marital relations were as happy as
they could possibly be under the cir
cUmstances.
The marriage was known to the
kaiser and to all the empress royal rel
atives. but was never officially or even
privately acknowledged The kaiser
never allowed his children TO visit
Friedrichshof and only permitted
Count Won SeckendOrf to enter his pres
ence under protest, and only then IN
his mothers suite

been always intimately associated with

Count Won Seckendorf that he be given
the rights Of a husband to act as chief
r7ourner. He presented q piuable spec

that his wife was only an ex-emPress

ACCIDENT ON The SHORT LINE
PASSENGER TRAIN DERAILED
IN THE YARDS.
Rails Spread and the Locomotive
and Several Cars Were Derailed-
Little Damage Done.

The ball players and a large number
OF rOoters who waited TO go up TO Og-
den on the 1880 Oregon Short Line
train yesterday were treated TO a little
act not down on the bills yesterday.
The train had drawn out of the yard
and was running along slowly when
lust as il started to switch off on to the
main track about three blocks from
the station, there came sudden jar
followed by a series Of bumps, and then
the train came to a standstill. Every
body rushed for the outer air and once
outside IL was plain to see that they
could not get TO ogden over the Short
Line route that day. While all the
coa ches were on one track t7e engine
and tender we're slOughed over on the
other track with the wheels OF the
former sunk down in the sand nearly to
the aXles.
The accident was caused by a rail
completely oveTturning. letting the for
ward cars and engine down on the ties.
The only damage done was TO the
trucks of the locomotive. which were
pretty we'll smashed up. IT was the
Iuckiest chance in the world that the
engine was only just commencing to
get IN sDeed- otherwise ii might have
proved a serious accident
The number OF the engine was 403
manned by Engineer Bob Simpson and
Fireman Hurley.
A wrecking train was sent for and
also a relief engine which drew the cars
containing the crowd for ogden back
TO the station
After tedious delay a new train
was made up and shifted over on the
Rio Grande track. whence the run was
made to ogden.
At a late hour last night one Of the
tracks had been cleared and every

HAYS RESIGNATION.
San Francisco Paper Discusses the
Situation.


One of the strongest candidates for
the presidency is believed to be Horace
c. Burt, president of the Union Pa
cine. Mr.. Burt is a railroad man second
90 none in reputation and ability and
is high in the good graces of Harri-
nan and that genueman'S following.
in fact Hartman has such confidence
in the ability of Mr.. Burt that he
placed the reconstruction Of the Central
Pacific in Burts hands. which action
on the part of Hartman was CCe of
the several causes of complaint on the
part of Has. Samuel FELTON, of the
Chicago & Alton is also mentioned FOR
the place. Mr.. FeltOn's chances, how
ever, are considered but small by those
on the inside.
The reasons that have led up to the
resignation Of Mr.. HAYS have already
been printed in the Call. Briefly they
may be said 20 be his general dissat-
isfaCtiOn with q position which has
been shorn Of most of its power and
authority Owing TO the influence of
the Union Pacific element, which is en-
ufely subordmated to Hartman. HAYS
has, from time TO time. had his powers
cErtailed until now he is little more
than mere hgurehead. He has seen
both Stubs and Herrin supercede him
IL the confidence of Hartman and has
been mortified by having his appoint
ments questioned and opposed and his
suggestions OverTidden by the advice
of others.
Hays is not the sort of man 10
HJanI this sort of treatment and his
resignation is the climax of a series If
iEe-tectual protests against the treat

treatment that the Gail has 1ote5 a.

DEWEY FOR sCHLEY.
Cousin of Admiral Talks of Con.
tTOveTsU
kansas city JournaI1

tkanEaS City journal. ID
Henry s. Dewey bears a striking re-
semblance to his famous cousin, the
naval commander. The resemblance
was striking enough, as he crossed the
lobby at the Hotel Baltimore yester-
day to warrant the glances of mingled
surprise and inquiry that followed him
on all sides. The facial resemblance is
especially marked. There is the same
lurking smile in the expression and a
suggestion of the courage and fnvin-
chile determination that won the battle
of Manila. Several years in the army
has impaired also much of the military
bearing to this kinsman that has be-
come a familiar attribute to the count
less numbers to whom the picture of
Admiral Dewey standing on the bridge
of the flagship Olympia at the battle
of Manila is well known.
only a cousin" said Mr.. Dewey, re-
feTring to the relationship, only a
cousin, but the Deweys, you know, are
rather clannish. In fact, all Deweys
look alike to each other. with the ex-
ception, of course. of the naval repre-
sentative of the family"
Mr.. Dewey has just arrived from
New York and was asked If the ad-
miral had at any time expressed him
self in regard to the Sampson SchIev
controversy. He was inclined to speak
guardedly on the subject, but said:
Admiral Dewey is very warm per
sOnal friend of both AdmiraIs Schley
and Sampson and, of course, has not
and would not now give voice to any
public statement regarding the I'M
fortunate affair. But a few months
ago before the historian Maclay was
ever heard of, the admiral expressed
himself rather freely IN the matter to
few personal friends
Which side does he take in the con-
troversy?"
That is hardly a fair question to
ask. But the mastery manner in
which Schley won the battle of Santf-
ago has time and again called forth
the private if net the public expression
OF the admiration Of the admiral AS
far as any foolish trumped-up charge
of cOwardice being laid at the door of
Admiral Schley on the loop question
he has commented in emphatic terms
on its absurdity- Why? In the first
place, Dewey made no less than five
loops in Manila bay. Yet Schley is
branded by Maclay as q catiff. Ad-
miral Dewey found il advfsab BILE TO
make loop retreat from the Spanish
forts, three miles at one time. He
knows all about loops.
No Schley commands the esteem
and in many respects the admiration
OF Admiral Dewey despite the Jealous
utterances Of so many naval officials
in and around Washington. who cen
sure Schley for occasionally discard
ing his dignity and making personal
pleas for his sailors. In the east and
in New York City especially. the in
terest in this affair is at fever heal.
and il is no more remarkable than sig
nlf1cant that nine people out Of ten are
in sympathy with the naval hero who
won the engagement of Santiago
while his superior officer was twenty
miles away.
Mr.. Dewey is a merchant in New
York City, having been manager for
