REMEY WILL Be RECALLED.
Needed as Witness Before the
Schley Court of Enquiry.
The Rear Admiral to BE Relieved of
Command of the Asiatic Squadron
Larger Quarters in Which TO Con
duct the Investigation Desired.

Orders will shortly be issued by the
Navy Department directing the return to
this country of Rear Admiral Remey
now commanding the Asiatic Station.
Rear Admiral Remey is now on the
Brooklyn, his flagship. and will be direct
ed to take a commercial steamer back to
the United States. He will probably be
succeeded in command of the station by
Rear Admiral Rodgers, at present senior
squadron commander.
The reason for Rear Admiral Remey's
recall to this country is that he will be
needed as witness before the Court of
Enquiry appointed to investigate the con-
duct OF Admiral Schley in the Cuban cam
paign Admiral Remey was stationed at
Key West during the campaign and win
be able 10 tell of orders given Rear Ad-
mi-al Schley when the latter called there
with his vessels.
The feeling is general that Secretary
Longs reception room, designated in the
precept as the place of meeting for the
Schley Court of Enquiry. will prove too
small to accommodate all who not un-
reasonably desire to attend. 1t is con-
venient to the records and other official
papers which the court might have occa-
sion to consult, but that is practically its
only advantage; and in anticipation that
the court after its first meeting, may
wish more commodious quarters. search
is already in progress for other availa-

but that is nearly three miles from the
department, and would necessitate a long
trip every day for the witnesses and
everyone else from the hotel end of the
city. The department library has been
suggested; but here the gallery in which
II is proposed to perch the press Is too
far from the floor to admit of easily
hearing what is going on in the court
proper. The old Corcoran Art Gallery
was used by the International Postal
Congress; but this is the headquarters
of the Court of Claims. and it is feared
that the sessions of the Schley tribunal
may overlap the date of the return of the
court after recess, and thus impede other
public business

A DEsPoNDENT woMAN's DEED.
Takes n Dose of Laudan um and Says
She Wants to Die.

Dependency led Mrs. Lulu Neurath to
attempt to end her life last night by TAX
ing dose of landanum- She was removed
from her home, SOC Fourth Street north
east. TO the Emergency Hospital and is
now reported out of danger. At late
hour Mrs. Neurath insisted on returning
home, and left the hospital in a cab.
Since the death of Charles Neurath, her
husband. late in October of last year, Mrs
Nenrath says she has had a hard time TO
make ends meet She keeps a small con-
fectionery store on the first floor of her
home, and lives in rooms above the es-
tablishmens- For weeks she has been ILL.,
and her health has apparently grown
worse as time wore on. The death OF her
husband. caused by consumption. also
came as a severe shock to her nerves.
which appear to have been on the verge
of collapse. Mrs. Neurath has no chill
dren Her only relative in this city is a
brother, Walter kiens. employed as a
clerk at the Crescent Steam Laundry.
Mrs. Neurath was very despondent yes
terday. and said last night that she was
tired of life. At her home she was alone
with a servant girl, and her mental agony
was 50 great that she determined to end
IL all in death. Accordingly she went out
and bought vial containing an ounce
of laudanum and swallowed the cont ents
long before she suffered terrible agony. AS
the drug began TO take effect, Mrs. Neu-
rath called loudly for the servant, who
became frightened out of her wits when
she learned what had happened. The girl
ran out of the house and summoned as
sistance, while neighbor sent in call
for the ambulance. Mrs. Neurath was in
serious condition when she reached
the hospital The physicians applied the
usual remedies, and she rallied somewhat,
and became conscious. Mr. Kiens. her
brother, arrived in response to a summons
at a late hour and the patient insisted on
going home. A cab was summoned and
Mr. kiens accompanied his sister on the
trip home.
Mr.. kiens told reporter that he did
not understand the unfortunate affair at
all He said his sister had been i'll. and
II was possible she had taken the drug
by mistake. On the other hand Mrs. Neu-
rath Informed a reporter that she want
ed to die. No reason other than that al
ready indicated was suggested for the
deed, and Mrs Neurath said that she was
uncertain whether she would ever renew
her attempt at self-destruction.

CLUBBED A DOG TO DEATH.
Policemen Refuse to shoot Becnuse
of n Nearby Sick Person.

Mounted Policeman Yetton, together
with several other bluecoats of the Eighth
precinct. had a lively experience with a
supposed mad dog shortly after o'clock
last night before they succeeded in des-
patching the animal. The canine ran into
the front yard of a house at 800 Florida
Avenue northwest and made several at
tempts to bite one of the inmates. a
member of the household informed the
police and in few moments several
bluecoats, armed with their night sticks.
were engaged in lively fight with the
brute.
Despite the limited amount of space af-
forded by the yard, both bluecoats and
dog galloped madly around in the en-
closure for several minutes before the
battle was ended. Owing to a resident
in the neighborhood being i'll. the police
did not desire to shoot the animal because
of the noise and decided to despatch II
with their clubs. Yetton procured rope,
which he placed about the CANNES neck,
and gave ii to the other two policemen to
manage. While one OF them grasped the
rope from each side in an attempt to
strangle the brute. Yetton struck the dog
on the head with his club. and succeeded
finally in breaking its neck. Thereupon
the three guardians OF the law dumped
the animal carcass iii the gutter and
marched off triUmphantly TO the police
station. none the less proud of their en-
counter.
