WENT ASLEEP IN CLOSET.
Man Believed to Have Escaped from
 Middletoyyn.

Middletown, May 3O.-- William Car- penter, a patient at the state insane hospital, was though to have escaped from that institution yesterday, but to- day he was found in a dark corner of a closet under a pile of blankets. He was missed from the dorrnitory yester- day and search failed to show any trace os him. The officers were nnys- tified, but as a precaution an alarm was sent out. as carpenter had been rather dangerous. He shot and nearly killed Miss Margaret Nevilles of South
 Norwalk late in the winter, because of supposed unrequitted love. The court committed him to the asylum, as it was shown that he was insane through use of drugs. To-day Carpenter pulled himself out from under the pile of blankets in closet near the dornlitory. This closet had been searched, but the pile of blankets had not been touched, as it was not thought anyone could have stayed under them. Carpenter was asleep in his warm berth for about 24 hours.

Gettysburg, Pa, May SO.-On historic Cemetery Hill, overlooking ground hal lowed by the blood of half hundred thousand brave men, and in the pres ence of thousands who had assembled to pay tribute to the memory of the nations dead, President Roosevelt to- day delivered a notable address. On nearly the same spot, on November 19, 1863, President Lincoln delivered the immortal address enuneiating princi- ples which have rung around the world for more than a third of a century.
 President Roosevelt was escorted to the cemetery on the battlefield by a body of several hundred veterans of the civil war. The president and his special escort were preceded by several organizations, including a squadron of United States cavalry, the Third Unit ed States artillery and the Marine band of Washington. which had been ordered here for the occasion. Mrs. Roosevelt and other members of the presidents party followed in carriages. Governor Pennypacker presided at the ceremo- nies. which were held in the rostrum in the cemetery.

 the Other in Manchuria.
 London, May 31.-The reports pub lished in Paris of discord in the in terview between General Kuropatkin and Viceroy Alexieff at Mukden and of the southern movement of the Rus- |sian vanguard below Wafengtien have given rise to runnors that General Ku- ropatkin has yielded to the wishes of the Alexieff party and is attempting to relief Port Arthur. Among sober pa pers here, however, the idea that Gen eral Kuropatkin would venture on such a dangerous movement is not taken se- riously.
 According to correspondents at Jap- anese headquarters up to May 29 noth- ing important had developed beyond out post encounters. Japanese troops are largely engaged in building roads and bridges. The Standards corres- pondent says that General Kuroki gave a luncheon to the foreign military att taches to celebrate the victory on the Yalu river, while almost simultaneous-

ly the Japanese first army was inform ed of the Kin Chou victory. The same correspondent indicates the reason for delay in the operations He says that the force that landed at Takushan ap- pears to have struck the fringe of the rainy season. The downpour has been very heavy.
 General Kuropatkin, the Telegraph S St. Petersburg correspondent says, is fighting two enemies, one at home, the other in Manchuria While his military reputation is undergoing a terrible or deal he is also accused of failure as minister Of WET to make proper prep arations for war The emperor is alieg- ed to be so dissatisfied that he would dis miss both Aleseff and Kuropatkin were it not that he fears the effect on public opinion. The general oimpression among the highest classes is that the fall of Port Arthur ought to connote the end of the war, and that if the Japanese succeed in this aim Russia's best interest would be to make peace, but nobody, the correspondent ayers, possesses the moral courage to make such a suggestion to the emperor
 The correspondent also asserts that the agreement is drafted whereby Ger many promises armed support to Rus sfa, if necessary, to prevent England and the United States from attempting to submit the far eastern question to an international congress and declares that the recent relaxation of arlti-Jew- ish laws is the outcome of the desire of the minister of the interior to concil- fate American opinion.
