Grand Rapids, Mich, Dec@2s.-In the local morsue are the charred and dis membered remains of the twentieth victim of Saturday nights head on col lision on the Pere Marquette railroad near East Paris. So terribly ,iisfigurod is this last victim found at the scene of the wreck late today that in all probability its identity will never be positively effected.
 The coroner'S jury was inclined to believe that this body is that of l wo- man. but the railroad authorities say it must be that Of tramp riding on the blind baggage" as no woman pass enger could, in their opinion, have been thrown where this hody was found.
 The odor of burned flesh informed the Hrecking crew that another hody lay under the wrecked engines. When they had uncovered the remains of this ;rd- ditional victim they found only frag- ments of a human form. There were nG arms or legs and only fragments of the skull and large bones, some teeth and most of the internal organs intact. 'ut literally roasted.

EVERYTHING IN READINESS
Young Corbeft or Hanlon Will be the
 Better Man Tonight.

San Franl cisco, Lee. 23.-E. ery thias of a preliminary natu has been set u. d for the fight tomorI ow. night be- tween Young Corbett and Eddie Han pa, the California aspirs nt for cham pionship honors.
 It was announced at Corbett's train ing quarters today that the Denverite is down to weight and that there is no possibility of him tipping over 129 pounds at weighing time tomorrow. He is pronounced to be perfectly fit and will not have an excuse to offer this time of a lack of condition, preventing him from squelching Hanlon's ambi- ton as it did at their previous meeting. At that time the champion put low estimate on the ability of the little westerner, and slighted his training to such an extent that he barely pulled out of the encounter with draw de- cision.
 Hanlon is a lad of strict habits and consequently is always :n fair trim and he does his training conscientious,y. there being always good reports from his camp. The selection of Grancy as referee today brought out some defer red betting and most of the money was placed at 10 to with Corbett the ia vorite. Both the men were on the read this morning doing light work and the afternoon was devoted to some gym nasium exercises. Tonight practically finished the trainieg Record breahrg g attendanc is looked for by the manag- CTS of the fight.

grand ury that convenes next week.
 Tonight a mob of five hundred men and boys gathered about the jail where they were confined and demand ed that they be turned over by the officers. The demand was refused. Until midnight the mob increased in numbers until there were at least 1000 men yelling and battering at the jail doors with clubs. Several times tho police charged the mob but they were unable to break it up. Just after mid night, armed with bars of railroad iron, a dozen men commenced battering at the jail door. A dozen blows shattered it and yell went up from the crowd.
 Congressman Smith who arrived just at this time, managed to secure the attention of George Sanders, the husband of one of the women assault ed and urged him to go home and let the law take it's course. Sanders list= ended and then started for home. Con- gressman Smith mounted the court house steps and urged the members of the mob to disperse telling them that Sanders had already gone This had the desired effect and inside of half an hour the court house grounds were deserted.

Why the Eastern War Will Not be Immediate 1,
RUSSIA IS NOT READY
Too Cold for One Thing, and it Will Take Time to Collect Her Naval Strength Another Russian Pretext for Remaining in nanchuria.

Rome, Dec. 2S.-Following the re- ceipt of reports from the far east d rather optimistic view concerning the difficulties between Japan and Russia is entertained in official quarters here.
 It is not believed that the conflict will take place in the near future not only for climatic reasons. but because Russia is unprepared for war. 1t is believed that Russia will first consolt- date her warships in the far east with the volunteer feet in the Mediterra- mean which latter now numbers nine vessels. The vessels of the Mediterra- mean fleet have been purposely kept apart so that no idea might be given of the character or strength of the squadron.
 In political circles the opinion pre- vails that the attitude of the United States government will have definite influence in solving the situation as to whether Italy sides with Japan and Great Britain or remains neutral.

Proof That Damaging TeI6-
 gram Was Fraudulent
A CHANCE OF THE DATE
Col. Henry Forgot That There Were not Thirty-one Days in April-Other Evidences of Manipulation by Con- spirators Against Dreyfus.

Paris, Dec. 2S.-The ground uIon which Dreyfus depends for 'vindicatipn and restoration to the army has been communicated to the Associated Press. Dreyfus charges that the telegram from Colonel Schwart zkoppen, late military attache here, to Colonel Pan~ nizzardi, formerly Italian military at tache at Paris, as presented to the court martial at Rennes, bcre the date of April, 1894, when he was occupied with the details of the n,obiliza tioa of the troops of which the telegram treat cd, whereas the actual dars of the tele- gram was the last of March. 1895, after he Oreyfus) had been tried. The copy which has been found established the correctness of Dreyfus claim in the opinion of the commission which rec commended revision of his case.
 The statement of the case against Dreyfus. containing the telegram when it arrived at the ministry for var. was dated April 1, 1895. which Dreyfus claims shows that the telegram was written in the latter part of March of that year. With pair of scissors Colonel Henry clipped off the corner of the telegram and thus the actual date disappeared. Then Cc'- y. the telegram, April, 1891. The colonel. however, neglected to remember thst the month of April has only thirty days for in the document there IS mention of "the 31st of the current month"
 The authenticity of the telegram could have been established had the court at Repnes appreciated the i'm portance of the error. Finally it devel- oSed that in the telegram where the words "Ce camille de deux" appear. the initial "D'' had been substituted fer the letter "P.'' The original copy witt ten by M. Oriblio, keeper of the ar chives of the war office, testified 10 the letter "P" The scratching upon the paper was apparent, but M. Ber:illon. the handwriting expert. testified that the letter ID" was correct It is nat urally claimed he was in error.

TOO COLD TO MOVE.
Russia's Latest Reason for Remaining
 in Manchuria.

Pekin, Dec. 2S.-Lien Fang, first sec retary of the board of foreign affairs, visited Russian Minister Lessar today and requested information concerning the intentions of the Russian govern ment, regarding the evacuation of Manchuria. Minister Lessar in reply said that nothing could be done at present with view to evacuation for two reasons. In the first place, the minister pointed out that the cold weather made it impossible to remove the troops from their present posi- tions. beside which there were no bar rack accommodations to be had else where and in the second place, he said. it would endanger Russian interests to undertake evacuation during the pro- gross of negotiations between Russia and Japan for the reason that Japan might seize an opportunity to invade Manchuria. The Chinese government is so alarmed at the prospects of be- coming involved in the seemingly pro- spective war that it would prefer that Russia should remain in control of Manchuria.
 As an alternative the foreign office has indicated to the ministers that a Fettlement satisfactory to China would be that Russia and Japan should retain their respective treaty rights in Korea and Manchuria if they agree not to attempt to obtain further advantages in either country.
 The Russian commander imperative ly requested the Tartar general to dis band his militia men and to disarn them.
 The Tartar general made an order in accordance with his request, but it is understood that the men are con- cealing their arms, supposedly with the Tartar generals connivance.

MIR, eEAuPRg BROUGHT BACK.

Colon, Dec. 2@-Admiral Coghlan's flagship. Olympia arrived here this afternoon from Cartagena bringing Mir. Beauprc, United States minister to Colombia and Mrs. Beaupre.
 Minister and Mrs. Beaupre arrived at Cartagena from Bogota last Satur- day and boarded the Olympia on her arrival yesterday afternoon. The Olym- pi immediately sailed for Colon. Minis ter Beaupre will sail for New York on the steamer Yucatan tomorrow.
 The reception of the Olympia at Cartagena was friendly.
 The naval authorities here received instructions from Washington on Fri- day not to send the cruiser Atlanta, the converted cruiser Mayfower and the gunboat CGstine to Cartagena with the Olympia as previously projected. The Olympia therefore sailed for Cartagena alonesat day-break last Saturday and arrived off Boca Chicha the entrance to the big lagoon OF which Cartagena is situated early yes tcrday morning. As the Olympia ran in toward the entrance she descried the Colombia cruiser Cartagena four miles distant making every effort 10 reach the entrance and to pass into the lagoon ahead of the Olympia which she succeeded in doing.
 The Olympia steamed slowly through the tortuous entrance between the two old Spanish forts, which apparently were deserted. and found that the Col ombian cruiser had taken up a position a short distance inside, but comman1- ing the entrance. It was learned sub sequently that the Cartagena had sounded there and later that she was towned into port. The Olympia pass ed the Cclomtian warships and pro- ceeded to Cartagena. which Is eight miles from the entrance. About mile from the town the Olympia hoisted the Colombian flag at her main mast and fired a salute of twenty-one guns. Shortly thereafter the Colombian bat tery at the edge of the town returned the salute.
 Admiral Coghlan then sent toat ashore to communicate with United States Consul Orr but it was learned that Orr had left 'Cartagena about fortnight ago for Barranquilla. The British vice consul at Cartagena. who is very sick man and is hardly ex Uected to live, h3d undertaken to look after the United States interests pend ing the arrival of MT. Orr's successor. Admiral Coghlan then. arranged to pay an official visit to Dr. Jose Ynsignar:es, governor of Bolivar which he did in the afternoon, accompanied by Cape Harrison and G. O. Colby.
