A rumor Is afloat In governmental circles
that ln > view of the fact that high court
trials seem to degenerate Into a farce and
are not taken seriously by the country , the
premier will introduce a bill of amnesty before -
fore the Chamber of Deputies , requesting nn
immediate vote. If the bill passes all suits
related to tbo Dreyfus affair and plot would
bo dropped , the proceedings now before the
Senate stopping abruptly. The cabinet Is
now back of the best opinion and desires
political pcaco at any price.
The Churchill hospital ship fund Is not
meetingtho same enthusiasm on tbla side
of the channel as In England. Most Ameri

however , pointing to Mrs. Delmont's answer
to the Red Cross society , composed of the
best French women , to head a olmllar col

Boers.

The Riviera oeason opens this year much

notables from the states. Most of them re

Is already lively. Cairo Is also becoming a
great winter resort. Many of the French
and American fashionable set who have

Jane Hading , after her failure In "More
Than n Queen" on this side , looked high
and low for a suitable piece , and finally , In
sheer despair , attempted to write ono her
self. Finding the task too difficult she suc
cessively engaged three of the most suc
cessful playwrights to wrlto her a subject.
The final result is that eho acknowledges a
dismal failure. Hading has just received
the American manuscript of "Moro Than a
Queen" as arranged by Nlnlllngcr and Melt-
rer. Herself nnd her advisers consider the
adaptation a vast Improvement on the orig
inal , containing more life. She will open
negotiations Immediately to rn-translato it
Into French nnd produce It here. News
papers scorn the Idea of American writers
improving a French play , but Bergeast , the
author , Is siding with Hading.
Donl Costcllune , who was a witness In the
Royalist trial today , attempted a boyish

GRAVE OF JOHN PAUL JONES
lleHcnrclien In 1'iirln SupiioHCil tu Ilnvc
I/oented Ilentlng 1'lnee of Amer-
ienn Commodore.
( Copyright , 1S09 , by Press Publishing Co. )
LONDON. Nov. 11. ( New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) Some time
ago the State department at Washington
sent to the Paris embassy a request to ascer
tain the location of the grave of John Paul
Jones , failing , however , to inform Ambas
sador Porter of the purpose in view. The
ambassador's and attaches' efforts resulted
only In the discovery that the obituary reg
isters of 1792 were burnt during the com
mune nnd that therefore there was seem
ingly no trace left. Nevertheless Henry
VIgnaud , first attache , asked a learned com
mission which has charge of preserving his
torical Paris a'cainst vandalism lo assist In
the research. After several months , the com-
mlrslon ] deqlajedit Impossible- discover
' ' "
whero'JonVu' remains haaf"b'eeii"iriterred.
Lieutenant Sims , the naval attache then
suggested calling In Albert De Ricaudy , a
very learned archaeologist who Is recognized
as possessing more historical knowledge
about Paris altos than anybody. It was
Ricaudy who finally unearthed Turgot's re
mains when all French authorities failed.
Now the old archaeologist has written an
open letter to Ambassador Porter giving the
exact location of Jones' grave and n complete
history of the researches in which the dis
covery resulted.
The document Is too lengthy and too dry
except to specialists for correspondents to
send ; sufficient to say Ricaudy gives full
proof that Commodore Jonea , who died July
IS , 1792 , was buried July 20 nt 8 p. m. , In the
prtracnco of a brilliant assemblage. The
original register wherein a descriptive entry
of the ceremony waa made was destroyed. It
Is feared , but Rlc.iudy found a copy of It
made In 1893 by Charlea Reade , who had
been Interested In reading It.
The Interment was made In a small
cemetery for Protcstanta , this being
filled in nnd closed within fix
months after Jones' burial. As the- French
always bury their dead accordlns to a cer
tain traditional order of position , Ricaudy
thinks ho can almost put his finger an thu
precise spot.
Incidentally tbo letter shows that all
biographers are wrong when they state that
Jones was burled In the famous Pcro
La Chaise yard.
The little Protestant cemetery where the
American commodore was Interred was In n
cheap part of the city near the station of
the Northern railroad between St. Louis hos
pital and St. Martin's canal. The lot was
sold nt the end of 1792 to a man named
Phtllpeau and later served as a pasture depot
for cartage material. Finally It was built
over and now several streets cross the former
cemetery. Jones' grave Is In nn angle of the
Rue dcs Ecluscs St. iMartln and Rue Grange
aux Belles. The spot Is covered with cheap ,
ruinous structures , mostly ono-story ; also n
garden , and the whole could be bought tolerably -
orably cheap.
Porter has Just sent the Ricaudy report
to Washington. Nobody In the embassy can
say what the State department Intends doing.
Ricaudy claims that If Jones was burled In
a wooden coffin no Identification is possible. '
If , as Is more than probable , bo was hurled
In n lend coffin with his uniform , award ,
etc. , ho proposes the demolition of
the structure , and the creation of
a little square named after the American
hero with u bronze statute over the exact
spot. Our ambassador also favors the plan
In preference to a solemn'transfer to the
United Statcu.

BERLIN , Nov. 11. The long-expected
agreement on the Snmonn question nnd the
visit of the czar were two events which
brought Joy to the hearts of the Germans ,
for they were both construed as favorable
to the empire nnd government , and the press
did everything to assure the czar a hearty
welcome.
The correspondent of the Associated Press
learns from eye-witnesses that the emperor
and empress accorded a most hearty wel
come to their visitors , which was heartily
reciprocated.
The press dwelt on the fact that the czar
and the emperor were always exerting them
selves for peace , and that the presence of
the czar at Potsdam , on the eve of the em
peror's departure for Egypt , at a moment
when Germany had entered Into a friendly
understanding with England regarding her
colonial policy , was tantamount to nn addi
tional guarantee of peace.
After the czar's departure the press In
dulged In the wildest guesses as to what
the monarchs might have agreed upon ,
especially during the ten minutes' talk while
In the mausoleum of Emperor Frederick.
The solemn stillness was only lit by two
tall altar tapers In the neighboring chapel.
Some papers went to the length of reporting
the exact words of the monarchs during
these ten minutes. The correspondent of
the Associated Press learns from an ex
cellent source that after a silent prayer
at the tomb of Emperor Frederick , they as
silently shook hands and left the mau
soleum.
At dinner , where Count Muravleff and
Prince Hohenlohe were present , an exchange
of views on the political situation was ex
changed. No specified agreement was en
tered Into , but Identity of opinion was found
to exist regarding the present and future
policy In South Africa , the Balkans , Greece
nnd elsewhere.
The correspondent also learns that the
czar and Emperor William formally dis
coursed during the day on a number of
subjects likely to occupy Germany and.Ilus . -
sla " In' "tho near" futurcT"ifcludihg- ! re"- "
newal of the commercial treaty. The mon
archs separated sure of each other's pacific
and friendly Intention. The correspondent
Is informed on good authority the visit or
the czar mokes for good. He left with the
conviction that Germany and Russia may
remain good friends , oven if Germany Is
Improving her relations with Great Britain.
United State * liecclven Attention.
One subject of conversation between the
monarchs nnd the statesmen accompanying
them , the correspondent Is credibly In
formed , was the pronounced growth of the
United States In influence everywhere on
the globe. This is said to have created a
lively discussion.
From a personal observation the corre
spondent is able to say the czar presents
the appearance of a man In fair health.
Of course precautions for the safety of the
visitor were of the most minute and com
prehensive description. The train traveled
twelve miles on hour and stopped frequently
while a pilot engine away ahead was exam
ining' the ground. Detectives shadowed
ovcry stop of the czar while nt Potsdam ,
even when alone with the German emperor
In a dog cart , which the latter drove through
the park of Sans Soucl.
Tht nowspapoii ! . wltli few exceptions , ex
press lively satisfaction at the Samoa set
tlement. There Is no doubt that Count von
Buelow has gained tremendously In favor ,
net only with the emperor but with people' .
o ! most all shadei n' opinion. Even tbo I
hostllii Kreuz Zeltung admits ho has' '
thereby deserved well of the country.
Tin prlca paid for Samoa IB not deemed
too high. All the papers except n few of
tin paGcrmat ) variety express confidence
tha ; thu United States , as owner of Tutulla
Island , will prove nn accommodating nelgh-
I > . .
In tha Joint Scenoa settlement the war In
South Africa Imc been nearly lost sight o ! .
Tin dispatcher from there have been but
llttli commented on.
Thn relchstuE will meet November 14 and
It li understood tba session will bo very
live ! ; . There are three 'measures over
which great diversity of opinion exists ,
They are the antl-etrlko bill , the naval bill
and the renewal of the commercial treaties.
The first Is not likely to pass unless the *
government accepts radical changes. The
naval billi \ morn likely to succeed , lie-
gardln ; ! tin treaties , everybody , including
the government , Is at sea , 'the preparatory
work being still behind hand. Amotig those
o ! special Interest to America Is the meat-
Inspection bill , which will como up for secom -
om | ruadlni ; ut an early day. The shape in
which It was left by the committee is not
acceptable to either govcrnmenl.
AnierlciiiiH Would Itetnllnte.
The correspondent of the Associated Press
Itarr. from r , reliable American authority I
hero that If the hill passes UB expected , with
the clause amounting to a prohibition of tbo
importation of sausaBcs nnd canned meats ,
tin United Stuten will not bo satisfied and
will retaliate ) with prohibitory measuren on
German wines. The result will be a regular
tr.v } win.
80011 after .tha Rclchstuc mcetn an Inter

crt'crcn ' : will lu discussed. Nearly every
party represented will express confidence In

The correspondent of the Associated Press1
leaniii that Prlnco Hohcnloho has not yu' :
mada pcuco with the emperor about the pub
licity given to his majesty's naval projects
and It In believed ha will have to resign ,
though there Is a chance that another truce
will bo patched up. It seems certain that
Count von Buelow will ba Prlnco Holien-
loha'n successor. The emperor la deeply
Iwprctsed with the skillful manner In
wtlcU Von Buelow conducted the Samoan
matter and managed Russia without giving

WASHINGTON , Nov , 11 , Three Important
dispatches from General Otis were received
at the War department' today showing the
hardships and difficulties encountered by our
troops In their advance and giving a cap
tured Insurgent dispatch showing the line of
argument put forth to sustain the insurrec
tion. The dispatches are as follows :

llanco Is on cavalry , few Infantry and uattvo

" .MANILA , Nov. 11. A number of official
dispatches were captured yesterday by General -
oral Young's troops In the north and for
warded by Lawton.last night. They Indi
cate directed abandonment by enemy of
country In vicinity of Cabanatuan and San
Jceo and hurried movements by way of Tay-
Ing over mountains to Bayonbonay , thence
on to Aplrra. Among the dispatches the
following appears :
"TAItLAC , Nov. _ G. Otis did not accept
propcfi-Itlon today ; enemy attacked our ouU
posts because Otis promised McKlnlcy to
take Tarlao today ; think they cannot break
through. Take care of prisoners , as therein
Ho our great hopes , especially ( for ) our
wives. There Is no such mlscrult ( ? ) cither
by the government or by MIong. Spanish
commissioners tried to deceive us , dealing
with us as Insurgents ; our government sent
them away and they withdrew displeased.
Quadruple alliance between Germany ,
France , Russia and Spain Is a fact. Before
December we will know our fate. Through
out Europe there Is sympathy for our cause
American democrats clearly In our favor ;
they are sure of Bryan's triumph next elec
tion. Pay attention to your alfairs nnd never
mind the rest. ' "
The dispatches are given verbatim as re-
delved , with several 'unintelligible words , In
cluding "mlscrult. " Inquiry Is being made
to learn whether this is a cable error or a
word used In the Insurgent dispatch.

LONDON , Nov. 11. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) With a full
sense of the gravity of the statement I
assert upon trustworthy Information that
Conyngham Greene , the British agent at
Pretoria , had Informally como to n com
plete agreement with the Boer government
shortly before the Issue of the Boer ulti
matum on all subjects In dispute and had
BO advised British High Commissioner Mll-
ner. Milner instantly repudiated Greene's
action and rebuked him for continuing In
formal negotiations , which , he said , could
only lead to compromising entanglements.
Evidence of this Is In the hands of Presi
dent Kruger , who oven under tremendous
provocation to publish It has withheld it
because bo and his colleagues are satisfied
that Greene acted honestly throughout the
negotiations and that it ho had been a free
agent the war would have been prevented.
Besides , the agreement of course was con
ditional upon the acceptance by the high
commissioner and in such cases it Is cus
tomary where a stipulation o * mutual se
crecy Is made , to keep the communications
strictly .confidential. Mr. Grecno's dispatches ,
as published oven In mutilated form , afford
evidence that ho was actuated throughout by
a desire to eccure peace.
Greene's Statement.
His only statement to the press since his
arrival here , which was treated as a mere
perfunctory declaration , assumes a very
serious Import In view of the unimpeach
able Information now given. He said :
I worked for peace up to the hour I left

XJAaJ.rJf te.13 * " - . '
Colonial Secretary , Chamberlain' London
have avowed that they regarded war as in-
evltablo for weeks before , but Conyngham
Greene , the British agent at Pretoria , the
man on the spot and knowing all the cir
cumstances and the real disposition of the
Boer government , did not abandon hope of
peace up to the hour ho was forced to leave
Pretoria by the imperative instructions of
High Commissioner Milner. The truth is
that Mr. Greene would have been removed
from Pretoria long before , for the Rhodes
party early pronounced him wanting In
firmness and ho was an obstacle to the war
policy of Chamberlain and Milner , had not
Mr. Chamberlain been afraid to make a
change at so critical a Juncture , while Mr.
Greene , though offered every Inducement ,
would not desert his post.
Greene Dlxernced.
Evidence that Mllncr nnd Chamberlain
regarded Greene's conduct with displeasure
during tbo negotiations arc abundant. When
ho went down from Pretoria ho was hustled
out of Capetown by Milner by the first
homeward steamer. When ho arrived hero
ho found that Mr. Chamberlain had left
London for hla country seat , nnd this Im
portant British envoy , coming direct from
the capital of a country with which Great
Britain Is now at war , has not yet been
received by the head of his department , so
that ho might convey his vlows verbally on
the momentous situation. Finding that Mr.
Chamberlain , though within two hours of
London , did not condescend to como up to
see him , or oven ask him down to Highbury.
Mr. Greene called at the foreign office ,
where he saw Lord Salisbury , to whom bo
complained bitterly of the open discourtesy
shown him by both Chamberlain and Milner.
Ho also went , as In duty bound , to the
colonial office , where he was received by
officials of no account. Ho has been treated
as a diplomatist In disgrace. Ills off en so
is that he honestly worked to prevent war.

upon our native land. Even In our own
House of Commons we have heard from the
lips of Irish Fenians words of treasonable
virulence. Just as ovcry good and every
great man Is sure to bo at all times the
very butt of slander and malice , so our
England , who In Its relations with all classes
of men desires only to bo just and generous ,
stands today amid the jealousy of nations
and the hubbub of lies.
"Wo have need for righteous determina
tion and for ardent watchfulness. The
greater part of Europe Is watching us with

only England bo resolutely faithful to the
righteousness of God It will bo able to say

disastrous whatever may be Its result In the

IRISH SYMPATHY FOR BOERS
Circular In Sent Out Con lie mil Inn the
Tyranny nnd OiitrcNMlon of the
IlrltoiiH In Africa ,
( Copyright , ISO ! ) , by Press Publishing Co. )
LONDON , Nov. 11. ( New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) The follow
ing Ironical resolution was adopted by ac
clamation nt a recent meeting In East Mayo ,
Ireland , presided over by Michael Davltt :
"Resolved , that we cannot refrain from
expressing our approval of the conduct of
some thousand British mules in the neigh
borhood of Ladysmlth nor expressing lh < i
sincere hope that ttome testimonial bo made
to the common sense of these Intelligent
animals In following the example of the
British soldiers In running Into the camp of
the victorious Boers. "
Notices have been sent throughout North
Cork calling upon the people to "remember
1708 and prevent enlisting in the English
army , which Is treason to Ireland , " The
document , sets forth that Irishmen In the
English service who have been sent to
South Africa will have to flro against the
Irish nationalists who have raised Ireland's
flag In the Transvaal and are lighting for
the Boers against the oppressor of Ireland ,
"Tbo Boers are making n brave fight
against thu tyranny and oppression of Eng
land , Let no Irishman dare raise a hand
acalnst them. In all the Irish towns and
villages recruiting Bcrgcanls are trying to
entrap thoughtless Irish boys Into joining
the Invadlnc army. "
This document emanates from the Irish
Transvaal committee and the government
Is urged by the ministerial press to prose
cute Its author. 'The ' manifestation of sym
pathy with the Boers through public meet
ings and the press In Ireland Is bitterly re-
nentcil here. English home rulers declare
that such action absolves them from ml-
bc3lon to Gladstone's policy.
