The reunion of the United Confed-
erate Veterans at Dallas, Tex. now in
progress. gives every Indication of go
ing into the history OF the organization
as one Of the most successful annual
meetings ever held by that body. It
I vas characterized by enthusiasm and
large crowds even before the official
opening occurred. Indeed. there was
| something like an ante-oficial opening
/ OF the reunion. at which congratula-
| tons and greetings were exchanged by
the delegates. This premature launch
ing Of the meeting was unofficial and
viii neither detract from the time Of
the actual session nor appear in the
official report. But il will be remem-
bered by those who were present as an
inspiring evidence of the enthusiasm
and loyalty of the ex-Confederate SOL
der.
Dallas deserves the thanks Of the
South for the generous manner in
which she prepared for the entertain
ment Of her visitors. OF the great
number of visitors in the city for the
reunion, probably $4,000 are Confed-
crate veterans. Not one of these, be
he ever so humble or poor, win be
permitted to want for the comforts of
life during his stay in the city. Not
only have barracks with dining rooms
been erected for the soldiers. but all
over the city the doors of private
houses have been thrown open to the
veterans. The hospitality dispensed by
the people of Dallas is an earnest of
how close to their hearts they hold the
fast thinning ranks of the grizzled vet
Grams.
In all human probability it will not
be possible to hold more than one or
two more reunions with as large at
tendance as that at Dallas. On the
first day of the meeting intelligence
was received that two veterans had
died on the way to the reunion. Prob
ably many others who had their minds
set on attending the meeting never
lived to see the day of the assembling.
AS body the veterans are accumulat-
ing years and infirmities. The sickle
of time is moving among them relent-
lessly. At each reunion there is a long
list Of dead since the last meeting to
be mourned. The gallant Hampton's
name is on the list this year. The
time is not far distant when there will
be no veteran alive to tell the story
of the great contest as an eyewitness
saw it. 1t is meet and proper. there
fore, that the Southern cities should
make the most of their few remaining
opportunities to testify at reunions to
their love and respect for the patri-
otism. devotion and self-sacrifice of the
men who wore the grey on hundreds
of the most heroic battlefields the
world has seen.

That is a curious statement which
has found its way into the public prints
to the effect that Gen. Wood was in
strumentaI in having Estes G. Rath-
bone convicted of postal frauds in Ha-
vana. 1t is made on the authority of
Senator Hanna.
Senator Hanna secured Rathbones
release on bail. He is a great friend
! of Rathbone, who was one of his lieu
tenants when he was making a fight
for seat in the United States Sem
ate.
In Washington. dispatch published
in one of the leading New York pa
pers, the Senator is reported as saying
that he will be able to produce writ
ten proof that Rathbone is the victim
of Gen. Woods persecution, due to
Jealousy and malicious gossip. Ac-
cording to the dispatch in question
Gen. Wood instructed the court in ad-
vance to convict Rathbone. Senator
Hanna says that he has documentary
evidence of that fact Rathbone's con-
viction, 1t seems, was secured mainly
by the evidence of Reeves, who, says
the Senator, expected to be pardoned
for giving such evidence.
1t does not seem reasonable that
Gen. Wood would be guilty of sending
man to prison because he was Jealous
of him, or because he had heard that
the man had spread abroad malicious
gossip about him. He could not af-
ford to jeopardize his position in Ha-
vana and his standing in the army by
doing such a thing, even if he were
bad enough to do it.
1t is a fact of course that Reeves
turned states evidence and that it
was mainly on his evidence that Rath-
bone was convicted; and Reeves has
been pardoned; but 1t is probable that
ne was given to understand that he
would be pardoned IL he went on the
stand and told all the facts in his pos
session bearing on the case. Besides,
it Is hardly probable that Rathbone
would have been convicted IL there
had not been some corroborating evil
dehce.
We do not of course undertake to
say that Rathbone is guilty, but what
we do say is that the statement at
tribute1 to Senator Hanna ought to be
thoroughly investigated-that is if he
made the statement. If Gen. Wood is
the kind of man Senator Hanna is
reported as making him out to be he
ought to be lifted out of the army with
out delay. a man who would deliber-
ately set about having an innocent man
convicted of an infamous crime and
imprisoned for a series of years is not
fit to associate with honorable men.
But is Gen. Wood such man? The
public will not believe it unless the
proof is forthcoming and convincing.
Senator Hanna presents a case for
courtmartial.

How ceciI Rhode. Went to orieI.

How Cecil Rhodes Went TO OrieI.
An oxford correspondent gives il
Mr.. Rhodes own words the story OF
how he became a commOner of Oriel
says the London Mail. Mr. Rhodes
related the incident in Oriel common
room on the occasion of his last visit
/ to oxford.
The morning / arrived here first
/ from South Africa 1 turned my steps
] not to Oriel but to University College.
1 had a letter OF introduction to the
master of university. l was shown
into his study. and heard my letter.
Then he looked at me and said: Well
Mr.. Rhodes, you have come a long
way
Yes. sir. said I.
And you want to become q men,
Der of this university
Well, sir, I shouldn't have come
all the way from South Africa if
hadn't.
The masters answer to that was:
We are very particular about the men
we take. We only take men who seem
capable Of getting honors in the
schools
The uDshot was that Rhodes was set
down in a corner of the masters study
and told to do a piece of Latin prose
and an English essay, and then return
in the afternoon for the verdict He
returned and the master informed him
that his Latin prose was not up TO the
required standard.
To continue in Mr.. Rhodes own
words:
Well sir I said. your Latin prose
would be shaky if you hal spent the
last few years as I have done The
master continued; Your essay is not
without merits. I regret we cannot
take you ourselves. but l will give
you an invitation to the Provost of
Oriel.'
$50 found myself out in the High
street. Suddenly 1 remembered the
one Oxford name. Jowett.
so l stopped a Dasserby and said:
Who is this Jowett one hears of out
side Oxford so mueh?'
oh, you mean the Balliol man.
said he. Yes, that's the man. Well.
he put me on the way to Balliol, and
as I went along 1 looked up and saw
'Oriol lane And 1 said to myself,
Now, which is it to be. I'll toss up
And toss up l did. A man who was
watching me grinned, but it came down
for Oriel, and I turned down Oriel
lane.
when I got before the provost, he
read my letter. then he said: 'Pf,'
twice, very contemptuously. So the
master of university sends me his leav-
ings.' l broke out at this. 1 don't
know anything about that, I said.
All know is that 1 have come all
this way to become a member of OK
ford University. And in the first day
l am told that my Latin prose is bad
and that / am 'leavings.
He looked at me hard for a few
minutes; then he said more gently:
We'll, MIR. Rhodes, 1 think you will
do. The master says that your Eng
fish essay is not without points. And
that settled it,"

Senator Hawley has served notice
upon the White House and the War
Department that Gen Miles has in
fiuential friends In Congress who do
not propose TO see him ridden over
rough-shod- Senator Hawley is chair
man Of the Committee on Military Az
fairs. He has introduced a bill. as re-
ported In our dispatches yesterday. in
which it is. provided that the lieuten-
ant general shall have enlarged pow
ers; that he shall be the actual head
of the army. and not the hgurehead
that he is now. The bill is in direct
opposition to that prepared by Secre-
tary Root and introduced some days
ago, providing for a general stan and
a chief of STAFF to be appointed by the
President. The Hawley bill is said to
be in the interest Of Gen Miles. Its
passage would certainly be in the ma
ture of a vindication of the position
taken by Gen. Miles in his recent testi-
mony before the Senate Committee on
Military Affairs. Meanwhile. the pros
pective enforced retirement by Gen.
Miles by the President has dropped en-
tirely out Of sight.
