LIEUT.. BUTTONS BODY NOT
 TO BE ExHUMED AT PRESENT.
War Department Postpones Action Upon Request of Mrs. Sutton.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The officials of the war department have decided after all to postpone action upon the request of Mrs. Sutton to exhume the body of Lieutenant Sutton, her son, now buried in Arlington National cem- etery The department officials re- ceiyed simple request from Mrs Sut- ton asking that this permission be given without stating reasons for her request, but in the absence of the sec- retary of war the question of granting the request is withheld for the pres ent.
 Although there seems to be no req sonable doubt that ultimately the mothers wishes will be compiled with, the officials are of the opinion that the secretary of war, the secretary of the navy and possibly the president should be communicated with before final ac- ton is taken. No instance is of record where the request of relatives for the disinterment of bodies of their relatives has been refused but the case of Lieu tenant Sutton is regarded as very exceptional one.

FINANCIER J. P. MORGAN
 NEARLY SHIPWRECkED
In Long Island sound-Yacht corsair
 Struck a Ledge.

New York, August 25.-The fact that J. Pierpont Morgan, the financier, was nearly shipwrecked on ledge in Long Island sound while returning from Newport to this city yesterday on his magnificent steam yacht Corsair, be- came known today when the yacht was hauled out in dry dock at Hobo ken for repairs. The accident occurred near City Island in the westerly end of Long Island sound. The Corsair was making fast time bringing Mir Morgan and party of friends to town when she struck a submerged ledge. Reversing her propellers quickly, the yacht sacked off the ledge but began to leak and it was evident that sor,e of her plates had been loosened by the blow. One of the boilers was also thrown out of position, but the ma chinery was not badly disarranged and after an investigation the Corsair proceeded to New York under reduced speed with her pumps going to keep her free of water. MT. Morgan was safely landed and the yacht sent to the dock for repairs.

interest in Massenet's opera, so Miss
Garden returned to public that enjoyed
it much more and never wearied OF re-
turning to hear her sing the role at the

1t will be observed In looking at these
pictures that there has never been an ugly
Mdnon. There has never been even a
commonplace looking Mdnon. All Of
them have possessed very exceptional
beauty and in addition the daintines'
essential to such a character.
And they have always been of English
speaking nations. The only French
element in any Of those who have appeared
in the part here is their residence in the
capital. The fact that a real French
woman had never sung Manon here might
have been urged as the reason for the
little success the work has had until
this time were it not that Paris has always
loved best the Americans who appeared
in the role. So the part Of Manon. whether
the opera will ever be liked here or not.
seems TO belong by right to the American
girls who sing it. whether it be here or
