Paris correspondent says that Captain
Albert Dreyfus, who was charged with
high treason in having sold French mill
tary plans to Italian agents, had con-
fessed his guilt. He betrayed for money
the names of the French spies abroad,
and also sold plans describing the posi-
tions Of the artillery of the Fourteenth
Army Corps in the event of war with
Italy. His treachery was prompted by
q desire to recoup gambling losses.

1t 10 "a Question whether This VIII bs
Germany Has Modified ITS Order and
Assumed a Liberal Attitude.
WASHINGTON, November 9.--The an.
nouncement that the German authori-
ties may conclude to determine the pos
sibilities Of the introduction OF Texas
fever into the Empire from expert opin'
ions OF American veterinarians was re-
ceived with great interest by Secretary
Morton, whose advocacy of retaliation
by requiring strict inspection OF Ger
man wines and liquors has been told in
these dispatches. The Secretary has in
vestigated the question, and finds thai
authority to entirely exclude German
products in retaliation for discrimina.
ton Of our goods is vested in the Presi.
dent by existing laws, all Of which has
been heretofore overlooked in the dis
cussion Of the question. Secretary Nor.
ton had conference with the President
and laid the law before him. 1t is in
the United States Statutes at large, vol
ume 70, Fifty-frst Congress, page Ala,
chapter $3.50: IAN act providing for an
inspection Of meats for expectation and
prohibiting the importation OF adulter-
ated articles OF food or drink, and au-
thorizing the President to make proc
lamation in certain cases and for other
purposes" Section 4, TO which the Sec
retary called the attention OF both the
United States authorities and the Ger
man Empire, reads:
"That whenever the President is sat
isfied there is good reason to believe any
importation is being made, or is about
to be made, into the United States from
any foreign country OF any article used
for human food or drink that is adulter-
ated, he tthe President) may issue his
proclamation suspending the importa-
tion Of such articles from such country
for such period of time as he may think
necessary"
The Secretary believes this law is the
key to the situation furnishing this gov
ernment with full power to retaliate
upon Germany for the exclusion OF our
cattle either by the policy which he sug-
gested, Of requiring strict inspection oi
their wines, or by stronger measures. AT
the State Department the attitude OF the
German government respecting our cat
tie is regarded as the natural and proper
outcome of the strong representations
made by Minister Runyon. The negoti-
ations had reached point where each
government was content TO rest its case
upon the questions OF fact; first, wheth-
er or not there were genuine cases ol
Texas fever among the cattle imported
into Germany from the United States,
and second, whether or not the disease
can be communicated to German cattle,
If, as stated in the dispatch, the Ger
mans have SO far receded from their first
position, justiiying the absolute exclu-
sion OF American cattle without reason.
able proof upon these important points,
then the State Department officials feel
that our cattle shippers have little tc
fear, and that the German government
has assumed very liberal attitude, and
one which is likely to speedily result in
the removal of the embargo.

THE ASTORIA RAILROAD.

ASTORIA, November al. G. Stanton
and his associates will tomorrow sub
init proposition to the railway subsidy
committee asking for thirty-day option
on the subsidy in order to place them in
a position to close a deal with Eastern
capitalists for the construction OF the
proposed railroad between this city and
transcontinental connection. Among
the property owners who form the COM
mittee of twenty-one there is diversity
of opinion as to the advisability of Civ
ing any one an option on the subsidy,
for the reason that the property will
under the e,terms of the deeds return to
subscribers January /, 1895, il in the
meantime the trustees fail to execute q
contract with reliable persons for the
construction of the road. 1t was de-
cided some months ago that no option
should be given, but that the first per-
son who showed the ability to build the
road should have the contract. Some OF
the friends of Campbell, the Chicago
contractor, profess the utmost faith in
his ultimate success, and assert that his
arrangements to sign contract are
practically settled. There are others
still who favor waiting until the arrival
of Judge Brown of New York, who is
understood to be on his way here. All
things considered, it is difficult to de-
termine what action will be taken, but,
| il Mr.. Stanton can thoroughly convince
the committee OF his ability to close a
deal, he may succeed in his endeayors to
secure the desired option.

Stockholders Asked to Prevent a
Foreclosure.
An Important Appeal Made by the
Santa Re Protective Reor-
ganiZers.

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 25.-The protective
reorgan cation committee of the Santa Fe
Railroad has issued a circular TO every
stakeholder of the road. in which the
Reinhart management is handled with ex-
IRENE candOr. The circular invites all the
stockholders to join the protective re-
organization committee, and asks them to
deposit their holdings. in return for which
they will get negotiable certificates of de-
posit in return.
The circular states plainly that its aim is
to prevent the foreclosure of the Santa Fe
property, and ''inaugurate a new and clean
administration. thoroughly representative
in character and in no wise identified with
its present unfortunate endorsements -
The circular states forcibly that the in
dividual holders of stock are helpless, and
these results can be accomplished only
by a cooperation of all OF them. The cir
cular has been kept as much secret as
possible, with its large circulation, and
was to-day first made public. After ex-
planning the purposes of the reorganiza-
ton committee. and the difficulty in get
ting reliable data, the committee promises
to submit definite plan for reorganiza.
ton. The circular says:
"The committee has prepared trust
agreement, under which the stockholders
are requested to deposit their shares with
the trust companies named below, for
which negotiable receipts will be issued.
and by the terms of which the stockhold-
ers are permitted to withdraw their stock
il they so desire.
Applications will be made In due time
to have the negotiable certificates of the
deposit listed on sthe New York, Boston
and London stock exchanges. There will
be no defense to the bill Of foreclosure
now pending in the court. The company
has defaulted on its interest obligation
and acknowledges its inability to meet its
fixed charges.
Under these conditions. unless there is
uniform action on the part of stock
holders, decree OF foreclosure Is sure to
follow at an early date, and to wait until
that takes place is virtually to suffer the
forfeiture of our interests. To escape such
a result immediate and concentrated &C.

FLORIDA LEMON CROP.
1t Is Exercising a Marked Influence
or Imports.


New YORK, Aug. 23-The increase of
the lemon crop of Florida is exerting
marked influence upon the imports of that
fruit. This year 1t is expected Florida's
crop of lemons will aggregate 20O. 600 boxes,
which is nearly fourlold the production
last year.
The stock now in market is sufficient to
meet all demands meanwhile. This
ample supply on hand. together with the
large quantities vet to arrive from Sicilian
and other ports of Italy ESTIMATED at
10000 boxes will compel the Florida
growers to leave their fruit unpicked I'M
til considerably later than usual.
The Florida crop, however, will begin to
arrive freely in the course of about three
weeks, and will alone be sufficient to sup
ply the Eastern markets till the next Ital-
Ian crop begins to arrive in the latter part
of October. The present abundant crop
of Florida will virtually exclude Spanish
lemons, about 10000 boxes of which have
generally beer received here annually.
California crop of lemons and other
fruitss has also rapidly increased. Cali
fornia lemons are almost wholly consumed
in the markets west of Chicago, but with
lu6 CUu liuu6u VI CIOpS lU6y are
expected to find their way still farther
eastward, and with the increasing crops
of Florida lemons, importers will soon en-
counter serious competition from domestic
growers.
The present wholesale prices for fancy
lemons are from IS IS to 81 %. Some fancy
lemons of extra superior quality are selling
at IS box. Fancy lemons of regular
grade are so cents a box less than at the
corresponding date of last year, while
other grades are holding at about the same
prices quoted al this time last season.
