The fall of the mlnlntry Is regarded as

1) ) Sargeant of Jackson's Like , died here
Sunday under circumstances which might
well bo termed tragical Sargeant gained
notoriety several years ago by accompanying
Hobert Hay Hamilton the New York club
man , Into the Jackson Hole wilderness , and
U was at his ranch on the bordeis of Jack
son's Lake that Hamilton shortly afterward
met bis death by drowning The mystery
of the affair hn never boon satlnfactorlly
cleared up , although It Is gt-norilly accepted
that Hamilton met his death accidentally.
Sirgcant again bccanunotoilons by sending
oil' fake reports of the maM-acre of srattlers
In , the Jackson s Hole icginn by Indians , and
It vvos duo largely to thcso reports that
tlooM | wore- sent Into the region on a ccfltly
nnd frultlcm errand In 1S33 to suppress it
raid vvhhh ev. ' ud mainly In the Imagina
tion of s.atfcoant
About a month ago rumors reached the fct-
tlcmunts In the lower part of the Jackson's
Hole legion that inrgcant was systematic
ally torturing his wife , a talented young
woman formerly of a cultured and well-
to-do family of Maclilas Me The settlero
tl'tcd out an expedition to go to Sarge nil's
ranch to Investigate The party consisted of
sK stalwart ram I men nnd two women. The
men traveled on snowfhoe" and pulled the
women and the supplleb on toboggans The
journey , llfly mlle In distance , was accom
plished only after great hardship \\lien the
parly reached the Sargeant ranch , Sargeant
lefused to admit them to his house. Tlio
men , however , stood him off at the point of
! their rllles and made a thorough Investlga
i lion.
' Mrs Sargeant was found sick , nnd In a
, ncglec'cd condition. She had received no
I medical attention and Sargeunt had refund
' to allow her chlliltcn to wait upon her.
i What attei.tlon she hail received was given
her by i-tealtli by hci little gill when the
fath'-r was temporarily ab'unt Sargeant
was almost constantly under the Influence of
morphine , to which he In n olave Mrs.
Sargiant begged the settlers to remove her
and her five children and they were brought
to the settlement Here medical attention
was secured and enetything posalbli' tint
good mir.slng and kind attention could do
was done , but v.lthout avail It was found
that Mrs Sargeant was suffering from a
fractuie of the thigh bone and two broken
rlbf. Other bititalltles bad been prat ticcd
upon her which served to make her recovery
hopeless To the last Mis S.aigeant refuncd
to say anything to Incriminate her husband ,
only asking that her children might ncvit
bo placed under his chaigc and that they
bo sent to hei pare Us In Maine.
\fter the extent and chatacter of Mi"
Sergeant's , InjmicD were learned at the set
tlements , notice was sent to Sargeant telling
him to leave the country If he lias not
compiled it l.s likely the men of the region
will take the matter of administering jubtlce
to him foi the abuse of his wife Into their
own handb and that he will be lynched.

Is now the question agitating men's minds
here. News of the hemming In and capitu
lation of the Greek army , followed by a
i evolution at Athens , Is hourly expected.
Plgnlflcant of the effect created by the
Larlsso. stampeded Is the silence of llio
Hellenists lu the House of Commons. They
are acused of having egged on Greeceto
Us destruction in. pure lightness of heart ,
while the mlnlstcis lus'ead of cowering

Dalfoui Las made it plain that there wilt

Improbable , hut It Is thought that the sultan

.cvci.al battalions and thrco Held batteries ,
including that commanded by Prince Nlclt-

mircb'ng across the great plain from Tyr-

This decision created consternation among
tbo Greek troops , who were utterly bewlld-

M. Halll has been Interviewed on the sit
uation , as having more rerl Influence upon
the people than any other man or body of
men In Greece at present. M. Halll said
"Wo are the \lctlma of * a scries of lament
able blunders , which have demoralized our
magnificent army. Prom the very beginning
we had no plan of campaign. As the war
went on the line of action obviously Im
posed i by circumstances was to avoid engage
ments i In consequence otHl e r.tlcr Incanac-
Ity of the commanders an'd positive Instruc
tions from Athens , which were -not based

the t sole thought of rwpon H > ! c commanders
was not to attack or withstand the Turks ,
but to effect a safe retreat If necessary.
All orders emanated from Hie palace , and
these which were Issued by any onn clso
weio ' Ignored. When dispatches were sent
to t Mavromlchaelld he wax not wlicre he
was suppose ! to bo , having moved on by
1F
superior orders Instead of protecting his
line 1t 1 of troops , In Cplrus with regulars ,
this t Important dutv was confided to insur
gents , who slmplv w.alket oT At Drrell
such was the demoralization that when the
j Turkish troops approached to attack tlry
were mistaken for friends nd when they
had killed some of our soldlo-s with knives
and sonu < Greek soldiers h.'vd fireJ rovohcro
our ofllccrs cried out : 'Don't fire , they
are friends.1 "
"Do you still pappose , " asked Iho corre
spondent , "that the war can ho carried on
with hope of success ? "
WAH CAN UE PUSHED.
"Decidedly , " he replied , "for I have great
confidence In Smolensky Mavromlchnells ,
Dimopoulos and sroino others Smolcrsky'a
retreat was a magnificent achievement from
a military point of view. "
"It s-ecnis to me , " said the correspondent ,
"that the entire army cannot yet be In Plnr-
salla My Information Is that numerous de
tachments. ' are still aimlessly wandering about
the plain of Thcssaly , Ignorant of roads , not
knowing what to do nnd liable to bo cut to
p'eces ' by the Turks. "
"I am eorry to say there ID truth In that
statement , for a considerable portion of our
troops was cut up Into small bodies If the
morale of cur troops can bo revived then we
may reasonably hope to repair the disaster ,
but I tell you , as I have told the prime mln-
Ibter , unlew the court kecpa well within Ita
peculiar province , the results vvlll be lamenta
ble. 1 Not for any ono person only , but for
the dynasty Itself" "
It would be useless to deny , says the same
correspondent , that the dj nasty vvlll suffer
In populailty owing to tjie failure of the
war. The merest trifle ino.y precipitate a
catastrophe Although his .majesty has done
bl heist for Greece , the monarchy's services

NiW ; YOUK , April 17. Never but once
In the history of the world , and never before
In the hlttory of the' United Statis , has such
a tribute been paid to the noble dead c.j
when , today , with wondious pageant by
land and sea , the nation iledlcatcd the tomb
that now hoUKi the bo ly of the hero ,
Ulysses S Grant.
It was an occasion moiu of tiluniphant
eulogy and national pilde than of a funcial
rite- , for In these twelve year.i since first the
nation mounted for Giant the kooinu'W of
grit t has worn off and tluio lives In the
liearttt of men the hero \ orshlp which found
such tumultuous vent today. The gieatcit
of our citizens , our soldlem and our sailors ,
toilay stepped side by aide- with men of fnnm
of almobt every nation nt the earth and
paid , without regaid to laeo or creed , or
parly picjudlcc , the lr.tt and long delayed
honor of the living to the dead while the
groitcht tlnong that cvei filled tlio city of
Now York added Itu sjrglng paem to the
roai of belching guns. ! and the tramp of
marching M > ldlci ? > . And In that Huong thcio
was no north nnd no bouth , foi slnco the
eoldlcr-presldent had said' "Let ll have
peace , " the gray had blended with the blue.
Ilefore the preslilcnll.il party left the city
to take pirt In the dedication ceremonies the
llagdccked streets were black with people
who cheotcd vociferously as the great men
drove by When the tomb was loiclicd a
strange bU'lit met the eje All around tlio
oval In the e nler of which stood the gray
monument to Grant wcio what srcined to bo
black hlllec-lii ? This sombre background was
formed by the lliuiuands of spectutois who
filled the eland built up fiom the ground on
both Eiilcs of the tomb to the level of the
oics that led to lib ma&sivo doors.
To the south , where tlio loop around the
oval met the Hivcrsldo drive theie two bolld
lines of humanity. On all foui sides of tlio
monument the stands were pac < cd to over
flowing , while facing thcMj crowds was tlio
real iiia s of eager alglitsecrs who had not

to the occaclon And when It was all over ,
when Major Stiong had foinmlly accepted
from the nation the tnibt of the tomb and
when the president and his party dlsap-

llcf went up fiom the crowd for at last
he heio lay In the tomb befitting his ro-

nation
The land paiado wan waited for after the
conclusion of the ceremonies The hky became

The watois of the Hudson reflected the
ashen hue of the skv , ami the great whltu
