SHOT AT A DANCE.
Private Pancoast, of Fort Myer, Wound
ed Three Times in the Back.

While returning to Fort Myer from q
dance at Rosslyn. Va, last night about
midnight, Harry C. Pancoast. a aopriyate
of the Fourth Battery. Field ARTILLERY.
was shot three tines in the back. The
wounds were not fatal. The assailant
is unknown and escaped.
It appears that Pancoast.. in company
with four or five of his soldier COM
panions, went to a dance at Rosslyn.
Va. and were after a few dances re-
quested to leave the hall. AS they were
leaving and had gotten across the road
OF their way to the post. shots were
fired at them from the direction of the
hall.
All of the shots took effect. One bull
let struck Pancoast Just below the neck
and the other two penetrated his back
lust below the shoulder. He was taken
to Fort Myer in a private conveyance.
where he WAS Immediately attended by
the surgeons at the hospital.
The doctors say that the wounds need
rot prove fatal. The bullets were easily
located and extracted.
No reason can be assigned for the as
sault upon the soldier. All who wit
messed the tragedy say that some one
fired the shots from a crowd of oy-
ISLANDERS around the entrance to the hall.
The soldiers. it is said. had no trouble
with the attendants at the dance more
than that they had been requested to
leave. with which they complied without
quarreling.
1t is stated that none of them was in
toxicated. nor had they been drinking.
Among his officers and companions Pan.
coast is considered enc Of the best SOL
diers at the pest, and has always borne
. good reputation.
All efforts possible are being made to
capture the assailant by the civil au-
thorities. though 1t said no efforts will
be made by the Fort Myer authorities.

CONFERS
WITH Mr.. HANNA

pointed associate magistrates OF the
au1iencia of Cuba under General
Brooke s regime, DR.. Lanuza, my at
torney, being then secretary of Justice.
AzcaTate and Ortiz were appointed un-
der the General Brooke regime as as
sistant fiscals OF the audiencia, which
positions correspond practically 10 the
assisting prosecuting attorneys in this
courtry-not. therefore. very important
Offices. La Tore was president OF the
audiencIa OF Pinar del Rio and was re-
moved By General Brooke. Later he
was appointed to his present position Gs
associate magistrate Of tae audiencia OF
Havana by General Wood
Thus, instead Of my attorney. DR..
Lanuza, having appointed four OF the
FIVE judges to their present positions. he
really appointed but two.
Questions Fair Trial.
"As to the statement. which / be-
lieve came from General Wood, that I
received a fair trial, and that my sem
tence was lawful and just. have this
to say: I did not have a fair trial, be-
cause Of conditions created by General
Wood. such as his numerous orders to
the trial court; the admission of ex-
parte evidence; my attorneys were not
given proper time to prepare my de-
Tense; the deciilatioH to summon wit
resses il my behalf. and the withholding
and suppressing CT evidence material to
me, all OF which is a matter of record
in Cuba.
Under TIE circumstances. the claim
that l had a fair trial is a startling
departure from ordinary legal pro-
cedure.''
Course of Procedure.
Just how Major Rath5one expects to
bring his case to the attention OF any
tribunal in this country, or what par
ticuIar reasons he will name for de-
manding rehearing, has not yet been
disclosed.
The customary recourse OF Govern
ment officials to a Congressional in
quiry might furnish relief. but as Mr..
Rathbone is free man. and as he is
not in the Government service. there
seems to be no excuse for such an in
luiry by Congress. The courts are clos
cd against him in this country. and ne
can hardly insist on being tried again
in Cuba against the wishes of the Cuban
government.
Mr.. Rathbone attributes his prosecu-
tion to Ex-Governor General Wood and
holds the iattI tar his con-
viction. a Congressional inquiry would
open up this subject as well as the entirs
Of General Wood in Cuba.
Major Rathbone is in good health and
spirits and shows no trace of worry nor
any sign of impaired strength in con-
of his Imprisonment in Cuba.
His STAY in Washington will be an in
definite one.

Volunteer Teachers En-
gagged in Doing Good
Work.
NO FUNDS FOR PURPOSE
White Pupils at Greenleaf Building
Under Mr.. R;oTdon-Mr. Cardoza Has
Charge of Scholars at Lincoln and
Stevens Buildings.

The summer vacation schools are now
in full swing.' Yesterday marked the
opening of the two colored schools for
the heated term OF six weeks, and the
Greenleaf summer school has been in
operation since Thursday last, when the
regular school year came to close.
About six hundred white children at
tend the Greenlcaf school, near Four
and-a-Half and y Streets Southwest,
while nearly five hundred colored child
ren have taken advantage OF the vaca-
tion schools, the sessions OF which are
held in the Stevens and Lincoln build
ings.
The teachers of the summer schools
receive no salary for their services, as
Congress has so far failed to appropriate
$4,000 asked for by the Commissioners
for this purpose. There has been no
lack of volunteer workers, and many of
the regular teachers have come forward
to help in the task of instructing the
children who take advantage of the va
cation schools.
Last ~ year, Congress appropriated
1000. and this sum was used to cover
the expense of the vacation school.
Those in Charge of Work.
Mr.. Raymond Riordon is superinten-
dent OF the Greenleaf summer school,
while the interests of the colored va
cation schools are looked after by Mr.
s. l.. CORDOBA. The Stevens School Is
at Twentyfirst and L Streets, and the
Second and Streets southeast
1t has been found that three hours
day, from o'clock until noon, is enough
to instruct the children in the lessons
imposed upon them during the heated
term. So the afternoon session. a reg
ulaT institution OF the winter term
schools, has been done away with in
the vacation schools.
Manual Training a Feature.
Because of the hot weather expert
enced at this time of the year. the gen.
eral plan OF studies followed in the va
cation schools is somewhat different
from that of the regular term institu-
tions. ManCal training is a feature of
the summer school, even more so than
during the winter months. The cook
ing school, for girls. - found to be IN
favor, and the hand is given marked
attention.; so that mental training,
while in no wise neglected, is not
pressed upon the student in wearying
fashion.
The making of baskets and like arti-
cles. requiring skill and perseverance.
is taught to the boys. while the girls
learn to cook and sew. Lessons. also.
are assigned in regular form. but not
such as will tend to tax the student In
hot weather.

FUNERAL OF Mr.. MAREAN.
Remains Inferred Yesterday at Oak Hill
Cemetery.

The last rites over the remains OF
the late Morrell Marean. who was the
local manager Of the Western Union
Telegraph Company at the time of his
death, were performed yesterday after
noon at the family residence, 1888 Twen-
ty-ninth Street northwest. The hand
some casket was covered with magnifi-
cent floral tributes from the many
friends.
The pallbearers were MessTs. Young.
Collins, King, and Noyes. of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company. Man
ager Callan, OF the District Messenger
Company, and Mr.. Graham, of the Ma
tiCnal Electric Company.
The services, which were simple, but
most impressive. were conducted by
Rev Stephen NJ. Newman, pastor of
the First Congregational Church. Ev-
cry effort was made to avoid ostenta-
tion. and cnly the immediate friends and
relatives were provided for at the fun
eral service.
The body was conveyed to Oak Hill
Cemetery, where it was inferred as the
sun was sinking in the western horizon.

HOPES TO BE Ex0NERATED
Insists That He Was Fully Justified in
All His Expenditures-Blames Gen.
eral Wood for His Troubles-His
Hopes.

Major Estes G. Rathbone, ex-director
general of posts in Cuba, who arrived in
this city from Havana. via New York,
yesterday was in conference with Sena-
tor Hanna, at the latter's residence,
for some time last evening.
Major Rathbone registered at the Raj
eigh on his arrival in Washington yes
terday morning, and then Immediately
repaired to Senator HanLa's residence.
Mr. Hanna was about departing for the
Capitol, and so could merely greet his
old friend and arrange for the con-
ference of last evening. Mr. Rathbone
then had conference with Postmaster
General Payne.
For several hours last night Iajor
Rathbone and Mr.. Hanna went over
documentary evidence. official reports.
vouchers, and memoranda covering in
detail the transactions In which the
former postal official was concerned dur
ing his term OF office in the island.
and also similar data in the cases OF
other officials where a comparison could
be made as to expenes. allowances, etc.
Major RathDone expects to prove that
his actions were always on lines sim
liar to the actions OF other officials,
and that the charges against him of
extravaganza and Illegal expenditures
were exaggerated, and that attention
was attracted to them for some Interior
purpose.
Until Senator Hanna has had ample
opportunity to look into the case in de-
tail. no statement Of the matter will be
made.

AFTERMATH OF The
COLLEGE REGATTA
Figuring on Georgetown's
Poor Showing.
Manager Thompson's Views-Work in
Practice Made Them Favorites
With Coaches.

The eight shell and equipment
used by the Georgetown University crew
in last Saturdays intercollegiate re-
Catta at Poughkeepsie did not reach
tie local boathouse until IL o'clock on
Mcnday night, having been on the way
from the scene OF the contest since
Sunday.
Janitor Pearson alone returned to the
boathouse with the boat, the members
OF the crew having gone to their re-
spective homes TO spend their vacation.
Coach Pat Dempsey went to his home
in Philadelphia. where he will look af-
ter the Vespers until the July regatta.
and then he will probably go 10
coach the crews of the New York Ath-
lctic Club for the national regatta in
August.
Graduate Manager NJ. ]. Thompson re-
turned to the city last night and was
still quite blue over the finish Of
the crew. He attributed its poor show
ing to the fact that it was demoralized
and that it's stroke became a mixture Of
several kinds, and that after the first
mile the men had forgotten all about
the instructions OF their coach. and went
to pieces He is of the opinion that
Dempsey will serve again, and that he
Will start IN in September.

Result Disappointing.

Gloom and disappointment enve;cped
the big boathouso when a call was
made there yesterday afternoon The
janitor was gloomy and blue, Ire big
shell, still covered with its travelling
canvas, was glad to be hidden from
view, so disappointed was it over hav-
ing carried losing crew, the oars were
still snugly slowed away in their trav-
cling case, sorry at not having been the
the means OF bringing in victory.
The result of the race upon which SO
many hopes had been built was certain
ly Disappointing, being SO unexpected.
The men were in prime condition, they
were on edge. not sharp nor fiat, but
just right, and in their prr.ctice pulls
here and on the Hudson showed up
splendidly, finished we'll, and returned
from their work strong and hearty.
While they and their coach hoped to
have secured at least a place, their ad-
nirers and the students OF rowing and
the betting fraternity put them down as
winners.
Four miles was almost too much Tor
an almost entirely green crew. Two
miles would have been far enough and
would have been a much greater test Of
skill and endurance. At two miles tfe
Blue and Gray would undoubtedly have
been a winner.
Coach Dempsey had only a little over
two months in which to teach the crew
his stroke land whip 1t into shape and
in that time nc simply accomplished
wonders

Will Try Again.

Georgetown will try again next year,
and 1t will begin its work at the begin
ming of the session and at that time the
management hopes to have more than a
bare dozen men to select from.
Last year the crew was beaten by the
Naval Academy. and came fourth at
Poughkeepsie. This year It beat the
Navy handily and came last on the Hud-
son. Such is the uncertainty OF boat
racing.
Just before the crew disbanded Joseph
Lynch. No. in the boat. was elected
captain for next year, succeeding Muir
ray Russell, who rowed at No. 6. Frank
Xerns will return next fall and will
again take up his work as stroke in the

Authentic Denial.

Regarding statements published yes
terday morning, respecting the judges
who tried me and the character OF my
trial, l have this to say: The story that
my attorney. DR.. Lanuza who previously
occupied the position of secretary of
justice for Cuba. had put into office four
of the five judges who subsequently
tried me is misleading and in effect
false, as it induces the belief that four
of the five judges were appointed to
their present positions as magistrates
of the audiencia of Cuba by my attor-
ney, DIR. Lanuza, when he was secretary
of justice.
81 am amazed. if this statement came
from General Wood. for it is simply
reiteration of a statement made by him
on March 90 last 10 a correspondent of
a New York newspaper, in Havana. The
following are the facts: The magis-
trates who composed the court which
tried the postal cases in Cuba were
Agulrre, Demestre. Azcarate. Ortiz. and
La Tore. The former two were ap-
