OF Mr.. kruger's encourage deny the
report cabled to the United States that
Mr. Kruger has sent wreath in memory
OF former United States Consul at Pre-
toria Adelbert 8. Hay
Secretary Hay VIII Go to New Hamp-
shire.
Mr.. E. j. Babcock, private secretary to
Secretary Hay, arrived in Washington this
morning. He was with the Secretary in
New Haven and left the burial party at
New York last night to come direct to
Washington. He informed Chief Clerk
Michael and other anxious inquirers at the
state Department that the remains of
young Mr.. Hay were expected to arrive at
Cleveland at 1890 clock today, and would
De removed to the chapel at the cemetery
where the funeral services will be held at 4
clock this afternoon. Mr.. Samuel Mather
OF Cleveland, a brother-in-laW of Secretary
Hay, has been intrusted with the arrange
ment OF the funeral details. He has been
authorized by telegraph to purchase suit
able floral tribute for the officers and en-
ployes of the State Department and have IT
placed on the caSket.
Mr.. Babcock said today that Secretary
HAY had rallied from the prostrat ting eff
1ects upon him of the death of his SON and
that he, as well as the other members of
the family, are bearing up wonderfully well
under their afflction.
In the cabinet meeting today some time
was spent In talking over the deep aft1ic-
ton that has come to Secretary Hay The
President had letter from Secretary Hay
saying that after the funeral at Cleveland
thls afternoon he would return to New
bury, N. H., with Mrs. Hay and his chill
dren. How long he would remain there
was not indicated. The tone of the letter
showed that the Secretary was bearing mn
bravely. The cabinet did not seriously dis
cuss the gossip of Mr.. Hays possible re-
tirement. If the Secretary himself should
indicate his desire to take such a step the
President and other cabinet members would
advise against it. The President has writ
pathy In the great sorrow that has come
to him. Acting Secretary Hill has the
business Of the State Department thorough
ly In hand and with excellent wire commu-
there Is said to be no good reason why Sec
retary Hay should not remain at Newbury
for some time.
Expressions of Coincidence.
Expressions of coincidence and sympathy
continue to flow in from all quarters In
addition to the large number already re-
ceived at the State Department almost as
many more were directed to Secretary Hay
at New Haven. Among these were mes
sages from President Mckinley and Secre-
tary Hays colleagues in the cabinet Lord
Lansdowne communicated through Mr.
Lowther. the British charge of embassy
here and other messages came from Am
bassador Choate, Ambassador Cambon the
Spanish, Japanese. Danish and Corean min
isters the Belgian charge d'affaires and a
great number of senators and many other
persons. 1t Is now learned that a number
of governments of foreign nations had ar
ranged to pay an extraordinary tribute to
Adelbert Hay by causing their representa-
tives in this country to attend the funeral
ceremonies in their full official capacity,
but this purpose has been defeated through
| the decision of the family of the deceased
to have private funeral.
