He was among the fourteen soldiers who captured nearly 200 Spaniards near Ponce, and was especially commended by ‘apt. William H. Gamar of the Signal Corps to Gen. Greely for his bravery. “There was not a singie opportunity that this young man lost in responding to the call for a volunteer to different dangerous points In the enemy's lines,” said Capt. Lamar to a Star reporter. HOW REVISION WAS SECURED M. Brisson Agreed to Take All Responsibility on Himself: Young De Lauder is a son of E. C. De Lauder, deputy ‘collector of internal rev- enue, Washington, D. C. > MAINE INCIDED His Offer Led M. Sarrien to Withdraw His Objections to Reopen- ing the Case. THE Friends Bet on the Affair and Row Renults. George Toyer, a young colored man whose home Is at 428 14th street southeast, had some friends call on him last night, and later Policemen Auguste and Morgan were summoned to the house. There were in- dications that a murder would be commit- ted unless prevented by prompt action. Toyer had a loaded revolver pointed at John H. Jackson and was threatening to blow his brains out, while Roy Snowden was adding to the confusion by using pro- fanity. Toyer was disarmed and taken to the station for disorderly conduct and as- sault, while his friends were charged with disorderly conduct only. This morning the officers told Judge Kimball about the trou- ble and said they thought it was the result of gambling. What kind of a game was it?” Judge Kimball asked Jackson. “It wasn’t exactly a game,” Jackson re- plisd. “We made a bet on the blowing up of the Maine and the Spanish war.” “Rather late to bet on the Maine disas- ter,” remarked the court. It was stated that a bet of $2 was made and Toyer held the stakes for Jackson and Snowden. “Jackson matched:the money and then the trouble commenced,” said Toyer. Toyer said he got the weapon from an- other member of the party and declared he didn’t know it wag loaded. “Why were you using profanity?” Jack- son was asked. EO “I was too scared to use any bad lan- guage,” he answered: ‘All I wanted was to find a hole to crawl in.’? The penalty for each was $5 or fifteen days, and Toyer was given three months additional for aul Boy Sentenced, to Workhouse. “I'm guilty,” wasrthe plea of a boy named Lorenzo Balf\’ when arraigned be- fore Judge Kimball,;thisy morning on a charge of vagrancy. PARIS, September 27.—The discussion at yesterday's cabinet meeting was practical- ly confined to the premier and the minister of justice, MM. Brisson and Sarrien. Re- plying to the latter's objection to a revi- sion of the Dreyfus case, based on the negative character of the commission's re- port and the vote of the chamber of depu- ties affirming respect for a chose jugee (a case already passed upon by the courts), M. Brisson pointed out that the late Lieuten- ant Colonel Henry’s confession of forgery changed the whole aspect of the case. He concluded: “If your scruples arise from personal con- siderations, if you do not deem yourself sufficiently armed to undertake without hesitation all your responsibility, you need not leave us. You can reméin without hav- ing to sign the letter referring the case to the court of cessation. ‘fake the port- folio of the interior. 1 will take that of justice, and thus all the responsibility will devolve upon me. M. Sarrien yielded to this appeal. At a cabinet council held today, at which M. Faure, the president of France, presid- ed, the minister of justice communicated to those present the letter he had addressed to the court of cessation, in which he sub- mitted a request for a revision of the Drey- fus case. The minister also read a circu- lar, which he had caused to be sent to the public prosecutors throughout the country, instructing them to energetically repress any attacks upon the army. Se SCHOOL RALLY SUNDAY Day. Observance at Boyd's—Volunteer Sol- dier Welcomed Home. Special Correspondence of ‘The Fvening Star. BOYD'S, Md., September 26, 1898. “Rallying day” was observed at the Pres- byterian Church at Boyd's by the Sunday school last night and a large congregation enjoyed the exercises. This day was set aside by the Presbyterian Church board for the purpose of inaugurating a new era and to increase the interest and attendance of Sunday school pupils. eit was planned also to increase the contributions to foreign missions and to renew interest in every branch of Sunday school work. Addresses were made by Rev. Robt. L. MeNair of Rockville, pastor of the church, and Mr. Geo. F. Pollock of Boyd's. There was also a recitation by Miss Nora Sibley of this place. The musical part of the pro- gram was well rendered. Mrs. Pollock and Mr. Jason Hoyle sang a duet and Misses Edith and Vinnie Watkins a duet. Roscoe C. De Lauder of Boyd's, a private in the District Volunteer Signal Corps, ar- rived at his home here from Porto Rico Friday last, and was most enthusiastically received by his many friends. He tells of some hairbreadth escapes in his adventures from door to doo wasPoliceman Mz!- len’s complaint, ‘‘and when I arrested him he told me he had no home.” “That's true," femarked the judge. know he has no home.” Judge Kimball doubted the boy when he said he had not been in the workhouse for a year. © i ae . Lorenzo was sent down for three months in default of bond. —_.—__ ~ “Brick Fight” Confessed. Mary Hunt pleaded guilty in the Poliee Court today to a charge of throwing mis- siles. * “What did this woman throw?” Police- man Jack was asked. “She participated in a brick fight in Queen's alley Sunday evening,” the officer answered.. “Five dollars,” concluded the court. “y “He was of C street last night begging | : WELCOME THEM HOME Wesley Chapel Greets Its Returaed Soldier Boys. MEMBERS OF FIRST D. C. REGIMENT Addresses Made by District Com- missioner Ross and Others. MUSIC AND BUGLE a a ea aS CALLS A reception was given in the lecture room of Wesley Chapel, 5th and F streets north- west, to the young men members of the church and Sunday school who went to Cuba as members of the Ist District Regi- ment. Among those who went out from Wesley are Sergt. Ernest Barbour, Cor- porals Ross and Wise and Privates Clar- ence Pitman, Charles Poole, Harry Swear- ingen, David Kohr, John King and Robert Potts. Many of the members of the Dis- trict regiment in the city were in attend- ance, The affair was under the direction of the Epworth League and the Sunday school of the church and was highly successful. A large number availed themselves of the opportunity to greet the soldier boys. In honor of the occasion the lecture room was handsomely and appropriately dec- orated with flags and flowers, some of the choicest of the latter having been sent by President McKinley. The pastor of the church, Rev. J. Heisse, presided, and after the bugle call by Bugler David Kohr the entire audience joined in singing “My Country, "Tis of Thee.” Rey. J. D. Blood- good, a member of the 141st Pennsylvania Regiment during the civil war, led in pray- © er, which was followed by an address of welcome from the pastor of the church. A solo was sung by Mrs. Olin Leech and District Commissioner John W. Ross made one of his happy little spee , Which was listened to with many evidences of ap- proval by the audience. Pays a Compliment. Commissioner Ross safd: “The pastor of your church invited me to be present this evening, and I said I wo’ come, but I was so much exhausted work that I thought at first | would my r Upon reflection, when | considered the cause which would bring you together in the interest of these boys of the District regiment I resolved to com “I know of nothing in the history of the District which arou: more enthusiasm than the coming home of these young men. I have been Commissioner a long time and have grown gray in the service, but 1 have never known of any movement that met with such general enthusiasm and co-op- eration as the proposed welcome to these boys on their recent return. “Why, when we called a meeting at the National Theater we thought that would hold ali the people, but a policeman who stood at the door told me 6,000 1 ple were turned away that evening, unabie to gain admission. We appointed a committee, but before any one was authorized to receive money the checks began coming in, and the citizens responded in a very liberal manner. Then came the reception, which was witnessed by a vast assemblage of people, standing on the streets from S o'clock in the morning until late at night without food, because they wanted to see these boys and give them a hearty wel- come. The avenue, the White House grounds and every available space was oc- cupied by the eager throng of people. An increa i police force was detailed for duty on the line of march, but there was not a se to report at headquarters by the of- ficers on duty. Everybody seemed to be on their good behavior on account of the boys coming home. “It was the ending of the awful suspense. How many brothers and sisters have lain awake night after night anxious to hear from the boy they loved so well in far-off Santiago, whom they had not heard from for weeks and unable to get any definite word; when they knew he was exposed to the dangers of that fight, and knew, if il!, they were powerless to render aid. Such @ generous response as you saw it on that day from the people of the District! And these are the fellows here with us tonight! “When the boys were ordered to go to the front they were obliged to go through a process of seasoning to prepare them for the hard: Pp of army hfe. At Camp Alger they were exposed to the most severe trials in preparing for the future. These young men never knew what it was to sleep on the ground. Then they went, as you know, to Chickamauga Park, and here had more camp life. At this place they were sub- jected to diseases peculiar to that climate. Then still further south to Tampa, where they were inured to the heat of the tropical sun, and when they got to Santiago they had experienced the ha ip, I think, which no regiment in the United States had gone through. Under the directions they bregressed step by step until they reached Spanish soil, but what suffe ing they must have been exposed to. They landed at Si- boney the 10th and marched all that night in the rain, and were for two days de- prived of food. They took their places in the trenches the Spaniards had deserted, and remained there crowned like heroes. The Difference. “I was amused at one thing my son wrote me. He was a soldier in Company D. it seems after the surrender of Santiago these boys got on good terms with the enemy. My son fell in with a Spanish soldier and they conversed together as best they could, neither understanding the language of the other; but the Spaniard gave my son to understand there was one great difference between the Cuban and the American sol- dier. The ‘Cubans shot and jumped back’ and the ‘Americans shot and jumped for- ward.’ (Applause.) “We have an important part of the work yet to perform of this war with Spain. What benetit this war has been to the suf- fering people of Cuba the school children should read the story of it in 1900. We wiil hardly be able to complete in a few days or weeks the important events that have happened these last three months. Think of it, to what extent history has been made, how the map of the land has been changed Take the record of the soldiers who went to Cuba, the total destruction of the Maine, the declaration of war, and the sending of the Spanish minister home with his pass: ports, the marvelous victory of Dewey i the Philippines (applause), the destruction of Cervera’s fleet almost by .magic, hardly taking an hour. (Applause.) “Our duty consists in assisting the boys who have come home to us in a w condition, with disease through their sys- tems, who will need medicine to prevent the return of that malaria, and those who shail ask for employment. They shall not suffer in this community. I have beer. most ad- mirably surprised by the willingness with which our people take a part in that work, the women so kindly having provided a home on 9th street to shelter them. When the boys came home they were asked how many they could accommodate. They said as many as you please; we will make room for them. “So I congratulate these young men to- night. I congratulate them upon the ree- ord which they have made; I congratulate them that they have been soldiers in this war; I congratulate them upon being Amer- ican’ citizens.” Other Exercises. Solos were sung by Miss Ethel Bloodgood and Miss Grace Altschu, while the various bugle calls as they*were given by the bugler were explained by Sergeant D. J. Moore. Mrs. Rebecca Scrivener, who has a son in the army, made a speech, and remarks were made by several of the soldiers. After the soldiers had shaken hands with all the people a large display of war relics was explained by Mr. Fred McKee. The collection was loaned by Robert B. Camp- bell of Company F, District of Columbia Volunteers, who was too ill to be present. Ice im and cake were served. The committee in charge were Miss H. Z. Fowler, Miss Esther Woodward, Mrs. Tsabel Heimick, Mrs. J. F. Heisse, Mrs. by nd er, et Annie Woodward, Messrs. L. Y. Ellis, Fred “And then what happened?” asked the McKee, John O. Schuckers, W. T.
