KITCHENER'S SUCCESSOR IN INDIA.
General sir O*Moore i reach's appointment to suc-\u25a0aal Lord Kitchener as comraaiKicr in chief ofGreat Britain'B military forces in India i? meeting
with a considerable amount of disapproval In mili-tary, a<j:nmb;trative and political circles, and ishardly likely to be rr-liFhed by Lord Kitchener hirn-saaT.li fact. It is an appointment that is ascribed\u25a0•\u25a0\u25a0.•-\u25a0 but to the Influence»nd pr«s<ure of Lord Morley. whose principal mili-tary adviser Pir O'Moore has been. .is military
**eeretary at the India Office at Whitehall, evereir;ce Lord Morley assumed charge of that depart-
ment.True. Sir O'Moore. like I>ord Kitchener, is an
Irishman, hailing from County Clare, and is a gal-
laat \u25a0.\u25a0«\u25a0•»-»:; »ho won his Victoria Cross under liOTdiio>^- during the last Afghan war. Hut he is•boui sixty-two years old. and, aside from avery .'.. at the \u25a0\u25a0 of one of the first•la** military districts in India, has never heldlag important command in India or anywhere else;
\u25a0at*:- . does he possess the administrative .ex-perience necessary to complete the wonderful andfar-reaching work of organization which LordKitchener has inaugurated and brought well under*»:\u25a0'\u25a0
Tlttie is reason, indeed, to fear that General<"reagh. who has most of the qualities of Indianveterans, possesses likewise some of their mostnotable defects, that is to say. a disapproval ofevery reform and innovation of a military charac-ter. And while some cf the elderly and retiredprowlers at the various Srrvice clubs in London•*\u25a0» satisfied with l;is appointment, hoping that it
means a reversal «o old-fashioned ways, it Is sig-
nificant that most otlic»-rs on th«» active list, espe-
cially thobe of the up-to-date Kitchener school, de-I'lore the nomination, which they ascribe to Lordllorlcy and to his refusal to listen to any adviceor to consider any argument excepting his own.

MUSICAL NOTES.
FROM AN EX-BARTENDER'S WIFE
To the Ivlitorof The Tribune.Sir: There Is much condemnation for granting
privileges to the saloons to keep open on Sunday
and closing the Raines law hotels. Let me giveyou one side of th- open door. My husband was ibartender, and while he worked in a saloon he wasfair enough. As soon as he went to work In aRaines law hotel his every effort was to get from
under all responsibility. To provide for wife, homeand children he Dccame a finished graduate in the
vices of the place. The saloonkeeper tried to runhis business on respectable lines, and so the op-portunity was not given which "the hotel" af-
forded. He said that in order to meet expenses
they had to cater to the immorality of the masses,
ana he has never been the same. Life in "the
hotel" appealed to him. I raised some slight objec-tions nine years ago which did not meet with his
approval, and it has been a battle ever since withthe Prime of Darkness, and I have known people
to support the "graduate of the Raines law hotel"in his vlciousness against his home and children,
who protest against the very existence of all drink-ing places in this city and every other city. Is thatconsistent? I trust the clergymen who are work-ing for the closing of the Raines law hotel may
find support to help the good work along.EX-BARTENDER'S WIFE.

East Side Resident Believes Police and Magis-
trates Could Stop Sunday Selling.To tbe Kdltor of The Tribune.
Pir Your editorial entitled "Sui Ing" into-dsy'a Tribune raises a serii is question In th»
minds af your readers which is well worth il.'ig by those who favor the MM of the Commit't^e \u0084f Fourteen. Are the saloonkeepers of NewYork City law-abiding < itiz'-ns 0 Commissionernitipham fays if I-* Impossible with his army ofrw.di<-emen to enforce the excise law. »md In your
editorial you stat*- that probably M pei \u25a0\u25a0
'<>t the
satoons are open on Sundays, which, In otherwords, means that M pei cent of the aaloonkeep-r.,<; ,;f New fork disregard the i;t«, and •and persistently violate the laws, thus putting
«# elves in the f-»;m.- category with all otl \u25a0
\u25a0 \u25a0ittz'-i:^ who have no regard for i;n>. or order. TheRaines liquor las law has its defei ts, ;<* all otherpreceding lawn h»\e i;>d. but In the history of our
i-v y has there ni-r been an excise law on the i-t.i r
ute hooks that the saloonkeepers have not tno,i toevade ;m<i violate, nnd with police assistance oi
Indifference have evaded or violated? is it th.i a
fact that they are opposed to any and alframed for the regulation of th.' liquor traffic? Hv
their own unlawful action- they have made theirbusiness a disreputable one la it right to concedemore privileges to such a class of citizens who
liav.- taken an unfair and a dishonest advantagi ofthose which they have already had? Have we anyguarantee thai tbe Committee of Pourteena bill
shall receive any bettei observance on the part of
:he saloonkeepers or any better enforcement on thepart of the police should IIever become a law? Aaa resident on the lower East Side for nearly thirty
years, my observation has been that when the j>o-
ii.-.. honestly try to enforce a law and the magia
trates punish the offenders there is a quick step-
ping Into line on the pan of those who violate
tin !;<w. but when police are indifferent and magis-
trates sympathetic the law is sur< to be a failure,
a dead lettet. We might give many other reasonswhy the law Is not enforced us it should 1--. butenough has been written. The revoking of the li-censes of persistent offenders would certainly he astep In ihe right direction. In justice to the em-ployes of the saloonkeeper lei them have a daj off„Sunday. MALCOLM R.

SALOONKEEPERS LAWBREAKERS
EHlJah R. Kennedy, an intimate friend of Mr.MacMonnles— their two families also being very in-timate—was unwilling to talk yesterday nbout th<»separation betweer Mr. MacMonnies and hia wifefurther than t > say that the reason assigned for
the separation. Mr. MacMoanies's alleged Jealousy
of his wife.= popularity is an artist, was pre-posterous and entiiely unfounded.
Mr Kennedy also sßiri tiiat the statement in th«first dispatch reporting thia separation, that Mr.IfaclConniea "haf: recent'y ueen in America for th.-
first time since his name became a great word Inthe realm of European sculpture," Is entirely in-
correct. Since Mr. MacMonnles received the K^ldmedal of the Salon for his statue of j. g. T Strana-han, standltig In Prospect Park, which award ram,>
to him nearly twei.ty years ago, Mr. MacM< nnlesmust have been In the United States nt least tentimes, and on pome of his visits he baa spent asl-nc a tim^ as tive months ii»' ww here only thlalast winter, and be visits his native country a^
often as hi* finny engagements on his artisticwork will permit him to. The statement in th<?
dispatch that Mi. MacMonnlea 'pot his first
chance" in Brooklyn and then "deserted to Fiis also entirely inaccurate. The Nathan Halestatue, which stands In the City Hall Park i"Man-hattan, was ordered and made before t!.-s stiana-
lian statue, which wad Mr MacMonnies? first
chance in Brooklyn, but :<* he bad never workedat hia art in this country the statement that he
first worked here and then deserted to France laIncorrect
Mr. MacMonnles showed talent for sculpture fromhis very earliest years. His first teacher was Au-
gustus Baint-Gaudens. Finally Mr. Saint-Gaudenssaid: "Now Ihave aught you all I.-an. you mustgo to Paris," and IIwas this, and In no sense a
desertion, that too), him to the French capital. Hisorders for work have been so many and so pressingthat he has never had time to study his own com-fort and convenience, but he has always been in-
tending to return to America to work, ami willdoubtless ii \u25a0 so hefor.= many years.
Th.-> suggestion that -'sine- the death of these twomasters"— Saint-Gaudena and Whistler- "he has not
done such brilliant work as before" is entirelyerroneous, Mr. Kennedy said: "Iam well awareof the very affectionate relations that *>xi.sterl be-tween Satnt-Gaudens and BtacMonniea until deal iseparated them, and [ an also perfectly aware ofthe relations which existed between Whistler an iMacMonnles. Ihave visited Whistler and spenthours at his study with MacMonnles, but th» •\u25a0 ...Eestk>n that either one of the two named had any
Influence upon his art, except as Mr. Salnt-Gaudenswas his first teacher, and that theil death has hadthe least eff< whatever, is absolutely foundedOne effect of the death of Mr. Salnt-Gaudens lathat some extremely desirable turtle commissionswhich would naturally have gone to Batoi Gaudenshave, since his death, been given to Mr. MacMon-
to. who la now at work upon them, one of thembeing for the Players. The statue of Gen< M^-Clellan In Washington wns t!i«> last Importantwork of Mr. MacMonnlea unveiled in this country,
and it shows very much ;he r»ver«e of any de-terioration In his art.
"Mr. MacMonnlea ha« «i this time commissionswhich would keep him at work several years Ifduring that time he did not Ret another order.Among the chiff these commissions are \u25a0 foun-tain for the City Hal) Park In Sew York, a Kreatfountain for the city \u25a0\u25a0' Denver, which willbe one ofth* most splendid works be has ever made: severalmausoleums to be ri'*l •\u25a0 decorated with sculpture
and at least two bronze statues of American states-
men. Besides these ho Is carrying \u25a0*'.\u25a0•:;* for his refreshment purely artistic works of gre.-it interest."
French Courts Separated Sculptor
and Wife in November.Paris. April 15.-H v.as learned here to-day that
the French courts, in November of last year.
R.-anted a divorce between Frederick MacMonnies.the American sculptor, anji his wife, who was aMSI Mary FalTChUd. of New Haven. The two were
married In this city September SB, 1888It Is understood that the divorce was arra-.ne.i
amicably and t-iat It was kept quiet in order toavoid gossip. Not even the two children of the
couple are aware tlat their parents have legallyseparated.
Mrs. MacMonnies was questioned on the matterthis afternoon and said. "There was do scandal
and there ha* been no recrimination on either sideThe partnership simply ceased Under tbe terms
of the decree the children will spend half theirtime with me and half with their father.
"
Mrs. sfacMoanies, who is living with her mother,
has taken a studio In Paris and is working in the
Ix>uvre. making copies of paintings for the BostonMuseum of Arts M. MacMonnies retains hi? Jiomeand his studio at Glverny-Vernon, near Paris,
where he l« engaged on a monumental fountain, or-dered by the City of Denver. Hi« mother is resid-ing with him.
FREDERIC P. OLCOTT.Frederic P. Olcott died yesterday at Bernards-
vtiie, N. J. He was sixty-nine years old. His
father was Thomas W. Olcott. who was the presi-
dent of the Mechanics and Farmers' Bank, ofAlbany, for many years. In 1865 Mr. Olcott cameto this dty. where he went into the hanking busi-
ness at No. 40 Broad street, with a cousin, forming
tbe firm of F. P. &H. L. Olcott. In ISTS he foundedthe banking bouse of F. P. Olcott & Co.. at No. 45
Wail street, and remained there as a partner until
ear i>~ He then withdrew from his busi-
aess duties to assume the office of Controller, to
which he had been appointed by Governor Lucius
Robinson. Mr. Olcott retired permanently from
business in 1905. owing to failing health. At the
time of his retirement he was president of theCentral Trust Company and a director In many
railroads.
What signifleth the praise spoken by royal lips
or written by royal hands, and that stirred by
grateful remembrance of royal stomachs well con-tent, If one is able md willingto work, but cant
get a Job? That is the question which EduardWerner, chef, inventor and painter of landscapes,
is asking himself after being out of work for al-
most a year, and not through failure to hunt for ameans of making a living.
Back in the early 90's Werner, who is a native ofCopenhagen, came very close to royalty when hev.as employed as a chef for Prince Valdemar. theyoungest son of the late King Christian IX,and inthat capacity accompanied the prince when the lat-ter, as commander of a Danish cruiser, made a trip
from the Baltic to the Black Sea. His cooking
pleased the prince bo much that on the return to
Copenhagen Werner was recommended for a place
fn the royal household, and for two years and ahalf was one of the chosen eleven whom the King
was fond of visiting and watching at their work.Very naturally, owing to his place in the palace
at Copenhagen. Werner cooked soups, entrees and
desserts for members of almost every royal family
In Europe, and on one occasion his recipe for flap-
jacks was responsible for making the Czar Alexan-der of Russia throw discretion to the winds andforget that the monarch had In his suite a cook
who was specially engaged to see that no Nihilisticsubstances, sucn as bombs and prussic acid, wereused to give hi^h seasoning to ragouts or caviar.That was one day in the Grlpskow. one of the larg-
est forests in Denmark, -about thirty miles from
Copenhagen, where members of the royal familiesof Denmark, Russia. England and Germany wereout hunting. The Ciar, who had paired off with
the King of England, then Prince of Wales, In thepursuit, drew away from the others in the chase,
and was half famished when he and his companion
came upon the Inspector's lodge, which had been
set aside as a kitchen for the day. Werner wasdeftly turning the batter into the steaming cakeswhen the pair of hunters entered, and without fur-ther ado set to sampling them. When the Czar hadfinished a plateful he suddenly forgot that it wasnot bis own cook's concoctions he was devouring.
and then with a laugn asked for another helping.
The Prince of Wales made a good pacemaker, andwhen the rest of the party came up Werner couldn'tproduce the flapjacks fast enough.
"Werner, on the death of his first wife sixteenyears ago. came to this country and has a portfoliofull of recmmendatlons from hotels, apartmenthouses and private families for which he has actedas chef. He holds a patent on an ice cream freezer,
which Is so constructed as to make Ice cream by
its own motion, but he is without means to manu-facture his Invention. His little apartment, at No.
14-' East 52<i street, is hung with landscapes In oilsby himself. He Is a dapper and cheerful little manand has a clean record, as Is attested by the letter
of recommendation from the chief marshal of
the royal household at Copenhagen, as well astestimonials to his fathful service from his Ameri-
can emp'oyers. What does the approval of eitheraristocratic or democratic stomachs matter, he isasking, if he cannot cook for others at a timewhen the dearth of good cooks is said to be atrying problem in domestic economy?
Despite his vain search for work. Werner has
been quietly helping others whose plight is wors-
than his own. Only recently he heard of a case of
an elderly couple, who were without food. One
of them was blind and both were sick and In
actual need of food, when Werner discovered them,
because they were tfo ill to leave the house. He
obtained a doctor's services and has sine* beensupplying the couple with food and looking: out
for all their wants, and It was through the grati-
tude of these recipients of his kindness that hi*
own unfortunate situation came to be known.

WHY BERESFORD WENT
Sir WlHiaii is regarded, not only at the Admir-alty at Whitehall, but also among naval experts
s.t>rnadL as the ablest commander and as the clev-t rr*-and m"c t resourceful strategist of the Britishnsvy; Infinitely superior in this respect to the moretriddy known Sir Charles. Itwas just because ofthis pre-eminence that it was considered in govern-
rrient circles in London of the moht vital importance
trat he rather than IVrvsford should have the pu-
»sreme direction of the impending manoeuvres, upon
which, as Ihave mentioned above, all the futureravaijvilicyof Great Britain will depend. That isth"
-- . reason of the supersession of I^ord Charles.of which so much capital has been made by his

Grand Manceuvrcs to Decide Eng-

Tpfn the verdict of Admiral Sir William May willCtyend the decision of the English government as
to whether It is necessary to increase the numbercf those terribly costly warship* known as Dread-
nouchts. There are a large number of naval ex-perts on both sides of the Atlantic who are by noxnear.s enthusiastic an the subject of this particu-
lar type of vessel, and who condemn the policy ofvirtually embarking all the money available forrr.srltime defences in the construction of these
aWsc. '-r' '\u25a0\u25a0" -"xdusion of others lew powerful. They
lafis: that Dreadnoughts are overrated, and arevery vulnerable to attack from torpedo boat de-stroyers, especially at night.
Sir William May, who has fast succeeded LordChtrles Beresftwd In command of the main fleetcf the rav>. a fleet which, In point of numbers. Is
the largest and most powerful ever assembled under
one command, will shortly engage In elaborate ma-noeuvres, in which the home squadrons, with TheirDreadnoughts, will represent the attacking force,
while the defenders willbe the various Channel andAtlantic squadrons, which have no Dreadnought?
as yet. but re particularly strong In fast and heav-Uy armored cruisers and in torpedo destroyers. it
is upon :he result of these manoeuvres, which will
t-o conducted \u25a0\u25a0' the utmost secrecy, that the
future policy of England in the matter of naval
construction will depend, and it Is because of thevast importance of the Issue at stake that LordCharles has been directed to haul down his flag
and to turn over bis command to Admiral Sir Will-iam May. whose forces will be almost twice aslarge as those under Beresford.
