Just a thought: at the beginning of GoF, in Harry's dream, Voldemort 
is talking to Wormtail about his "faithful servant in Hogwarts" 
(don't have the exact quote). But (correct me if I'm wrong), at THIS  
MOMENT, Barty Jr is not at Hogwarts yet... He took Moody's place just 
before the beginning of the school year,right? So do you believe he 
was talking about Barty Jr in anticipation, or about someone else?

I say:
No, he doesn't say his "faithful servant" is at Hogwarts.  It's Barty 
Jr.
 
> And about the presence/absence of Snape in the graveyard...All the 
Deatheaters APPARATED in the graveyard. These events take place 
during the tournament,and all the teachers are at Hogwarts. What if 
Snape had been called by Voldy but COULDN'T join them because YOU 
CANNOT APPARATE in Hogwarts (this is repeated in almost in every 
book,must be important,no?)

I think there may be a chance that Snape was at the graveyard.  
There's nothing against him leaving the Hogwarts grounds and 
apparating from there.  In addition, it's possible for him to have 
used a portkey.  If you're looking on from a distance, then there's 
no way to tell someone who comes in by apparation vs. someone who 
arrives via portkey.  So the no-apparition rule doesn't really pose 
much of a barrier to his (possible) presence in the graveyard.
