LONDON', July 13. Tho VlakfontcH In
cident haa como near to spelling Watrloo
for tho government. I
An apparently unimportant Incident, the
cencorshln of one of ilin ncweiiancridls-
patches, has had the effect of cryxtallllng
all the widely differing sorts of public llls-
satlsfactlon concerning tho conduct ofuho
war In South Africa. This dissatisfaction
haa lone been nent nn and now llnds too
xent, not, strangely enough, through iho
columns of tho opposition newspapers, tut
In tho government Journals.
Tor months past the public belief In ted
admiration for Lord Kitchener havo hjen
waning and now he Is openly and sevetply
criticised. A rumor, which cannot bo slb
stantlated, Is current that ho will thorily
ho succeeded In tho command of tho Brit
ish forces In South Africa by General Sir
Ulndon Mood, who has been operating In
eastern Transvaal. Should this chauga oc
cur It would probably bo due to tho differ
ences of opinion existing between Lord Mil
nor of Capetown and Lord Kitchener, and
It would bo announced In the form of pro
motion, accompanied by tho statement that
tho operations In South Africa no longer
Justified tho presence there of an ofTlcor of
tho seniority of Lord Kitchener.
There Is llttlo doubt but what Lords Mil
ncr and Kitchener havo had several dls
agreements nnd tho high commissioner does
not wont to return to South Africa as long
as tho hard, hlgh-handcd General Kitchener
remains In control there.
Amid the storm of disapproval resulting
from the Vlakfontcln affair nnd which tho
government's supporters nro pouring out on
tho War office on account of tho suppression
of news and flagrant vagaries of tho cen
sorehlp, tho liberal party, through Its hopo
less difference of opinion, Is obliged to sit
stupidly and seo tho best opportunity over
offered pass out of Its hands.
Tho extraordinary spectacle has been
presented of an advanced radical newspa
per, tho Dally News, patting tho War office
and Lord Kitchener on tho back for sup
pressing tho story of nllcged Doer outrages
to British wounded, whllo tho Times and
other government, though less radical, or
gans llko them say tho feeling aroused In
tho general public who havo up to this time
blindly nnd enthusiastically supported tho
government's war policy can scarcely he
estimated.
Tho officials of tho War office aro more
worried now than at any previous time dur
ing tho war nnd they nro working strenu
ously to explain tho mistake Tho Incident
has awakened In tho public mind an eager
ness, most unfortunato for tho government
to know tho detail) of operations, nnd an
ever Increasing dissatisfaction with the
progress of British arms In South Africa.
Prominent members of tho conservative
party believe that If their party had to go

provided a semblanco of opposition could he

TRIAL ABSORBS ALL BERLIN
Prosecution of Polish Students Is Ger

DKIILIN, July 13. Tho great trial nt
Posen of the thirteen Polish students
charged with belonging to secrot political
soclatics at various German universities,
organize! to promote tho political aspira
tions of Poland, rccelvos much attention.
Tho examination of tho accused students
haa not up to the present time developed
any sensational features. Thoy all deny
tho charges of participating knowingly In
Illegal societies. Tho most sensational
feature of tho trial so far bos been tho
throwing up of their briefs by the leading
lawyers for tho dofonse, protesting against
tho rigid limitations prescribed for them
by tho court.
In connection with tho Posen trial, tho
German nowspnpers print Information con
cerning tho Polish national fund nt Itap
persschqyl, Switzerland, which was col
lected chlofly among American Polos. This
fund now amounts to $16,000 and continues
to grow rapidly. Tho nowspapers, referring
to tho mattor, say: "The purposo of this
fund as stated by the Polish managing
committee. Is that it Is to be used at n given
moment In support of a dcclslvo political
action."
Tho official publication of those who have
In band tho collection of this fund says
tho only institution openly working for tho
Independence ot Poland Is tho National
Fund.

constitutes typical American humor.
"It Is tno faculty," ho says, -ot not stop
ping at the first aspect of things, but ot
discovering In them an unlookcd for ele
ment of ludlcrousncss."
Comuarlng French and Americans as
after-dinner sneakers Mr. Dopew Inclines
to concede superiority to tho trencn, tncir
discourses showing more finish nnd spring
ing more naturally from tho circumstances,
"whereas American after-dinner speeches
are generally composed of a lot of stories,
funny but perfectly extraneous, profaccu
and threaded together by other remarks,
whereof It Is easy to acquire tho knacK.
"Everything In life la moro or loss ludlc
rous, viewed from a certain angle. Certain
American humorists would extract fun
from a funeral. All Americans nro not hit
morous. but nil havo tho senso of humor,
which is tho faculty ot recognizing what
Is funny at flrsslght. Tho English and
Oormans lack the faculty woefully, but the
French share It equally with tho Amcr
leans. Hut whllo with us It proceeds from
optimistic buoyancy, with tho French It
comes from nvcrlnformcd cynicism."
Finally Mr Dcpcw snld ho himself had
been rather annoyed throughout life by tho
prominence given to his faculty to reclto
anecdotes. Ho had never heard nor made
nn after-dinner speech which would resist
analysis ns n piece of oratory.
"Hut," ho added, "Europeans nover will
realize how Indulgent the American public
Is to Its orators, fiction writers and play

CHICAGO, July 13. John A. tllnscy, Im
perial prince of tho Dramatic Order Knights
of Khorassan, resigned his position lato
this afternoon. Ho stated that ho be
lieved It to bo best to relieve the order
of any embarrassment from the publicity
given tho attacks mndo an him In connec
tion with tho endowment rnnk matter.
Officers of tho Knights of Khorassan
held a secret session, at which it was de
cided to ask him to resign. It was nlso
decided to call for nn examination ot the
books.
Although Illnscy was a prime mover In
founding this branch he was not allowed
to attend tho meeting today.
Kxplnlns to the P tliliins.
Today Hlnscy nlso mado a statement of
his conduct as president of tho board of
control ot the endowment rank, Knights
of Pythias. Tho statement is in answer to
tho report of Supremo Chancellor Ogden H.
Fathers nnd tho board of control to the
special convention of the supremo lodge
Just held In this city. Mr. Hlusey says:
"For thu benefit of those of my friends
who do not know tho altuntlon 1 wnnt to
say that there Is n great deal of animus on
the part of Fathers and his followers back
of nil this proceeding. Tho causo for this
bitter feeling on his part consists of my
refusal to support him in 1S9G and again In
189S for supremo vlco chancellor. Ho sua
cceded In being elected In tho 1S9S convoti
tlon, held at Indianapolis, and after the con
test was over threatened to drive mo out nf
tho order. I again refused to support him
for supremo chancellor nt tho supremo
lodge session held at Detroit In 1900. This
net ot ml no seemingly ndded to his enmity
of me. Being supremo chancellor he was
ex-offlclo member of tho board of control
and I was president of tho board, re-elected
at tho Detroit convention. Thoy claim that
I voluntarily resigned that Is not truo
they mado It lmposslblo for me to contlnuo
as president, having long previously con
tended that the president of tho board ought
to dovoto his cntlro tlmo to tho business
of the rnnk nnd bo paid a salary common
surato with tho service. Taking advantage
ot this expression ot mine a resolution was
offcrid to that effect nnd to bo consistent
I had to voto for It. Tho resolution passed
and of course. I resigned, becauso the cu
dowmnt rank could not pay a salary
which I could afford to accept. These arc
tho exact circumstances under which I rc
signed nnd no other. When I resigned as
president I also desired to resign as a
momber of tho board, but my request wa3
vigorously opposed by tho wholo board nnd
I concluded to continue as a member of the
board." ,
Answer Supreme Lodge ClinrRCS,
Taking up tho charges mado In tho ro
port to the supreme lodgo Mr. Hlnsey
says:
"As to that portion of tho report ro
fcrrlng to overdrafts amounting to $75,000:
This overdraft became necessary becauso
of the falluro of the City National bank
ot Jort Worth, the depository of tho rank,
.designated In compllanco with supremo
lodgo laws, Jxt tho time of "the faiiurti
of fehat bank 'tho rank had about $141,0)0
on uepofllt with It, There was from $70,000
to $75,000 of warrants afloat that had been
sont out to beneficiaries a day or two pre
vious to the closing ot the bank In pay
ment of death claims. To prevent protest
ot thoso warrants on tho part of tho re
ceiver of tho bank It was necessary that
wo at onco provldo for that amount ot
money. Tho arrangement was made with
tho First National bank of Chicago by
depositing with It collaterals. At the next
meeting of tho board of control It was
dotermincd to treat tho $35,000 of collat
erals deposited as cash and deduct them
from our nssets, in preference to advertis
ing an overdraft. This action was con
firmed by the then board ot control. Tho
overdraft was reduced from tlmo to tlmo
and tho collaterals redeemed.
"Tho method adopted by the board of
having tho secretary of the board doblt
all warrants down, whtlo tho bank was
not permitted to doblt our deposits, except
as It paid tho warrants, resulted In n
difference botwocn tho record of tho board
of control nnd the bank, nmountlng fre
quently to fiom $50,000 to $70,000, thus our
hooks might show (nn overdraft of from
$50,000 to $70,000 and tho bank's books
show a balance In our favor.
"This report claims that tho financial
condition at tho tlmo certain investments
were mado would not warrant tho Invest
ments being made, becauso thero was nn
overdraft. As to any other overdrafts
noted In the report of tho board, other than
tho $75,000 abovo reforred to, I assume tho
bonrd on tho dates of thoso Investments
finds that our books show nn overdraft, but
the bank at the samo tlmo would show a
credit In our favor.

Is truo to tho extent of some loans being
made nnd In each Instnuce ample security
taken for the money loaned and In all
cases tho principal and Interest ot the loanj
were promptly paid to the endowment
rank, except tho two loans referred to,
mado to Georgo F. Baker nnd E. L. Parker
on real estate."
In the matter of these loans Mr. Hlnsey
maintains that tho property mortgaged is
ample security. Continuing, he says;
'Tho board reports that 1 made n loan
of $3,000 nnd $3,500 on the same real cstatn,
In tho names of different parties. Thu
statement Is not true. The two loans re
ferred to, those of Maloney nnd Kehor, wcro
on different pieces of properly, nine miles
apart. Theso loans were amply secured and
In both instnncos wcro paid before they
wcro duo.
"As to tho charge pf the board of control
that I embezzled $1,725 of money dua from
section No, 247, located nt Milwaukee, of
which I was secretary, It Is untrue and
false. 1 hnve thu record evidence to sub-
stant'.ato that tact."
Why Hunk Failure CniiKht Them.
"By the mode of presentment nf the
falluro of the City National bank of Fort
Worth nnd tho Texas coal lands It Is
mado to nppcar that I am entirely re
sponsible for this loss. This Is not truo.
Bids wcro Invited under tho law; the City
Nntlonnl bank of Fort Worth was the
highest bidder, nnd I was compelled, un
der tho constitutional provision, to make
tho deposit. The deposits began in 1SSS
and ran along until the failure of the bank
In 1S93, which falluro of course I could
not prevent, and In the .detail attending
tha adjustment of Its affairs the hoard
was compelled to Invest nnothcr sum
amounting to about $32,000 In some coal
Innds In Texas In order to save tho equity
for tho benefit of the endowment rank.
Thcso lands wcro a part of the assets of
the Fort Worth bank and tho endowment
rank stilt, owns them and In rciudvlng n
rental of nbout $600 n yenr for the same,
which nets the endowment rnnk between
$300 nnd $400, nftcr paying the taxes, tho
samo being rented for pasturage. It Is
snld by good Judges of values that this
tract of land, nmountlng to 2,459 acres, Is
worth In tho neighborhood of $100,000, Of
course this Is disputed. I contend that If
proper management la had nnd the lands
aro held they will eventually be sold
greatly to tho benefit of tho rnnk.
"Wo havo received a dividend of nhout
43 per cont from the receiver of the bank
upon the deposit wo hud In the bank when
It failed, which was about $111,000, nnd
tho present receiver says that there will
bo at lenst nn additional 5 per cent divi
dend, which will pay one-half of the prin
cipal of the deposit.
Ilt'lliery Charitc Is Htdleiilotls.
"As to tho Arkansas rnilrond matter
In which It is rlalmcf that I used $5,000
of tho endowment rank's money In my
own Interest, to brlbo the Arkansas legis
lature, this Is not only false, but ridicu
lous. I never made nny statement ns 10
bribing tho Arkansas legislature, neither
did I use $5,000 or nny other amount ot
tho endowment rank moneys In my Inter
est In tho railroad venturo referred to.
I did loan $3,000 of tho endowment rank's
money on a note .executed by one of the
men Interested In the railroad enterprise;
the principal and Interest to that note
havo been paid.
"As to tho claim mndo of a deposit ot
$3,000 with tho law firm of Goodhort &
Goodhart of New York, I havo no knowl
edge of nny such transaqtlon
"As to, tho investment 9: endowment
rank funds In Lexington hotel bonds, they
wcro purchased at various times. Before
purchasing any of them I conferred with
men In whoSo' Judgment nslto'tholr value
I(JUH,iUr1's-jV!T., Tbsy. wero bought
Tori. less thai4i'.4valucl cacn purchase
was reported at tho next . meeting of, jtlie
board' of control and approved, by- .tho
board, and 'for some tlmo. wo. received our
Interest regularly at tho rnte of 6 per cent.
"I am Tiot Indebted to tho endowmont
rank to tho extent of 1 cent nnd have not
used nny of Its funds for my personal
benefit, cither directly -or Indirectly."
