Prof. Jean Roemer, author, soldier and scholar, vice president of the College of the City of New York, half brother of the late William I, King of Holland, and st one time talked of as @ successor to the throne, was found dead yesterday morning in’ his room at tbe Curtis House, Lenox, Mase. He was eighty-cight years old. Heart dic- ease was the cause of “death. Prof. Roemer, who was the illegitimate relative of Alexander Pan} Frederick Louis William II, King of the Netherlands, Prince of Orange-Naseat, Grand Duke of Luxembourg and Duke of Limburg who died at The e, November 23, 1890; was born in England. Before the death of his father, William I, which occurred in 1849, the Dutch people were desirous of calling Jean Roemer back to Holland with a view of his suc- cession to the throne. . In infancy Jean Rocmer was taken to Hano- ver andafterward to Holland. His early edu- cation was conducted by private tutors. ‘The boy was destined for the army. He served on the Dutch side throughout the war of secession between Holland and Belgium and was a brilliant soldier. At the con- ciusion of the war he completed his studies in Lombardy, under the guidance of Field Mar- shal Count Radeteky. “Some time after the death of his father “Mr. Roemer set forth claims to titles and estates, the right. to which was denied’ him.

Bemty | ‘the applications for free quarters are in excess of the supply, large snd ample though that is, Never before on any similar occasion has such | demand been made for accomodations in the | age ent. Already has the committee st a = ae of money E capa @ sleeping for a large army. quarters provided Pitive barmeks and in the ‘schools ‘will ac- | commodate by actual count 45,000 men. ap} plications from additional posts are coming each day and now there aré quarters needed for 5,050men more than has been for. ‘This morning ap) were received from king quarters for 660 men. The com- mittee bad never received any intimation from these posts that they intended to visit this city. Tomorrow, perbaps, there will be ap] eations from as more, and perhaps it will goonthat way from day today until by the time the encampment opens there will be 10,000 mem to provide for. CALLING & MALT. However, Chairman Edsun is not going to undertake the impossible. There isa limit to time and also to money. Every post was noti- fied by cireular dated August § that all applica tions for free quarters must be sent to the com- mittee by September 1. He proposes to adhere to the terms of the circular and no free quar- ters will be granted to whove applications have not been received. It is estimated that there will be 75,000 Grand Arms men here forthe encampment, or, rather, these are the actual figures. For instance, the committee have con- tracted for und there bas adtually been made 20,000 mattresses for use in the school buildings and halle, and the list of men on the books of the committee assigned to these quarters correspond to this number. To- day Chairman Edson gave an additional order for 3,000 mattresses. There are 20,000 men ac- counted for. In addition the committee has established two camps, composed of buildings two and threehundred feet long, where there are separate beds for the enormous number of 26,000 men. That is 45,000 meu. Applications in additign have been received from over 5,000 men, and these will be provided with accommodations. It will be seen that the citizens’ committee is going to entertain free of cost to the recipients over 50,000 men, an army about as large as the one tbat accompanied Gen. Sherman to the sea; equal to the entire population of a great many flourishing cities, and. constituting one-fifth of the population of the District. No city has ever been called upon to provide free accommodations for sch a great number. In Di not half that number occupied the free quarters, In addition to the 50,000 men in quarters provided by the committeo, there ha: nearly 20,000 nen who hay nd balls cod their have secured q) it the aid of the committee. ‘his latter estimate, may be too small, but it will be seen that the estimate of 75,000 Grand Army men is based on solid facts | and is not a mere estimate. WILL HAVE TO Pay HEREAFTER, Posts hereafter applying for quarters will | have to pay for them, as the committee at this nnot new buildings. termination and he intends to call the commitiee together tomorrow, when this matter will be presented to 0 doubt the de- cision of the chai: dorsed. BATTLEFIELD EXCURS: Excursi: to battlefields is one of the topics now being considered by Chairman ie has not had up to date much information to give, but yesterday he received two reports. One was from the special committee on tour excur- sions, consisting of Messrs. Dudley, Parsons and Tyler, The commities states that as no assurance can be given the railroads of the number of people who are likely to go on these exeursidns they have nothing on which to base their calculation: The committee thinks little difficulty will be found in getting good rates to points that ean be reached in such time as-will enable the tourists to return to the | city the sazne day, but to Appomattox and other | points where the trip will consume more than | one day it will be diticuit to arrange for. There is no way of providing for the excursionists ex- cept by taking provisions along: and the rail- roads are unwilling to undertake the task unless they can receive some assurance of the num- ber of people to be accommodated. Notwith- standing this the committee recommends | that the railroads be asked to seud free special excursion trains to ; other distant points, in as iy may be necessary, with provisions for the pas- | sengers, in charge of som: of the railroad offi- cials. To secure the railroads against loss the committee suggests that some one at each corps headquarters organize the excursion parties and send in a list of those who will go not later than September 20. This would allow the railroad companies one or two days to make | their arrangements. The committec's recom- mendation is made without consultation with the companies, but it is confident that the rail- | roads will agree to the proposition made. The committee has also prepared a schedule of ex- cursions to the battlefields within reaching dis- tance, which the railroads will be asked to adopt. ‘The principal difficulty in the arrangement of such trips ax have been contemplated, the com- | mittee says, lies in the fact thet all the facilities | of the roads entering Washington will be taxed | to their utmost capacity during the encatnp- | ment by trains bringing people to Washington | and getting them away again. THE TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE. A report was alto received from Mr. Hege, the chairman of the committee on transporta- tion to battieflelds and the agent in this city of the B.and ©. railroad. Mr. Hege states that | while his cominittee has not been very active | they have secured terms and schedules trom all transportation companies whose lines enter Washington except the Pennsylvania Kailroud Company. That company has xo far ignored all communications sent it by the committee and bas refrained from informing the com- mittee what it will be willing to doin the matter of excursions during encampment week. Mr. Hege further states his committee will in a few days istue a circular showing what has been done in the way of arranging for special excursions. ‘THE WOMAN'S COMMITTEE. . ‘The ladies’ citizens’ committee held a meet- ing this afternoon, when all the subcommittees made their reports, showing that all details of ‘the work are in good shape.
