Great Military Parade Precedes the

Of "The Lost Cause" Pulls Cord
Releasing Covering.

Richmond. Va, June A memorial
to Jefferson Davis, only president Of
the Confederacy, was unveiled Mon
day as the browning feature of the
annual reunion of the confederate vet
Grams. There was grand military
pageant" in which every veteran in
gray who was physically able, as we'll
as many who were not, participated
with energy and enthusiasm.
The unwilling was the fruition of is
years of patient and loving effort. and
every man who wore the southern uni
form had in his heart a desire to be
present. The thanks of the entire
south were offered by the orators of
the occasion to the United Daughters
of the Confederacy, whose work it was
that made the monument association
a success.
Thousands Cheer the Parade.
The streets were brilliantly decor
ated. There was scarcely a house or
business building in the city that was
not rrofusely draped with confederate
colors and bunting. This was espe-
cially true of Franklin street and Mon
ument avenue, the line of march for
the procession to the monument.
The parade started at 1880 o'clock
The military feature was similar to
the parade on the first day of the re-
union, when the statue of Maj. Gen.
j. E. B. Stuart was unveiled, but there
were far more veterans in gray in the
line. Veterans of every section of the
south marched in honor of their rever-
ed leader. Gen. Smith Boiling. Of
Petersburg, Va, was chief marshal.
The ceremonies at the Davis monu-
ment were opened with prayer by Rev.

was by Gov. Claude A. Swanson, of

SCORE FIRST POINT
Way Cleared for Pressing the Suits
for an Accounting from the Trus
tees for the Christian Science
Leader.

Concord. N. H., June 6.-The petit.
ton Of the three trustees to whom Mrs.
Mary Baker Eddy had transferred her
property, asking that they be substt
tuted as plaintiffs in place Of next
friends" in the suit to secure an &C.
counting of Mrs. Eddy's property, was
denied Wednesday by Judge Robert
N. Chamberlain of the Merrimac SUI
perior court. The trustees are Henry
M. Baker of Bow; Josiah E. Fernald
of Concord, and Archibald Mcclellan
of Boston. The next friends are
George w. Glover of Lead. s. D., son
of Mrs. Eddy; Mary Baker Glover. his
daughter; Fred w. Baker of Epson,
and DR.. j. Foster Eddy of Waterbury,
VT, an adopted son, and George
Baker Of Bangor, cousin. The suit
is for an accounting of Mrs. Eddy's
property. which, it is alleged, is I'M
der the control of Calvin A. Frye, Mrs.
Eddys secretary, and other Christian
Science leaders, who are named as
plaintiffs. The question of Mrs. Ed.
dy's physical and mental condition
figure in the action.
Wednesdays decision is in favor of
the next friends" A long hearing
was held on the question two weeks
ago at which Gen. Frank S. Streeter
Of Concord argued for the trustees
that they should be substituted because
the original plaintiffs were hostile to
Mrs Eddy and. as he alleged. wore
not acting in good faith. William E.
Chandler, senior counsel for the plain
tiffs, opposed the petition on the
ground that the trust deed was exc
cuted for the purpose of avoiding the
suit and that it was void owing to
Mrs. Eddy's alleged incompetency.
This is the first decision in connec.
ton with the case, which, by action OF
counsel in filing various motions, petit.
tions and affidavits, presents many
phases.

New York, June 5--Sawing their
way through the steel bars of their
cell in Castle William, three army
prisoners escaped from Governors
island Tuesday, and have not been
captured. A boat is missing from the
island. and the men carried the steel
window bars with them as weapons.
The escaped prisoners are Henry
G. Toner, R. G. Campbell and Frank
West. They we're serving two and
one-half year terms, respectively for
theft, sleeping on post and desertion,
and were confined in the same cell on
the top tier in Castle William. The
men used rope ladder with which to
escape. They sawed the bars Of their
cell. and the fact that they had saws
and used a rope ladder leads the au-
thorities at the island to believe that
the prisoners had outside help, and
Gen. Grant has ordered a rigid inves-
tigation.
Left Island in Boat.
A sentinel is on guard at the prison
every minute, night and day, and the
first knowledge of an escape was
when the sentinel spied the rope lad,
der dangling from the cell window
He called out the guard. who searched
the tier and found the cell empty
An immediate search was made of
the entire island in the hope that the
prisoners might have hidden on it,
but they were gone.
One Of the boats used by workmen
who are building an extension to the
island on it's western end was miss
ing.
Not Safe Prison.
Castle William is an old building
and there have been many escapes
from it. 1t is easily accessible to out
siders, and it is believed that the
three who got away had friends bring
them apparatus with which to make
their escape. A party of women Wis
tied the men on Sunday.
Toner belonged to the Thirtieth in
fantry, Campbell to the Twenty third
infantry and West to the New York
coast artillery.
They were to have been of a squad
of 80 prisoners who were transferred
to Fort Leavenworth Tuesday.
