rested charged with having betrayed
important secrets of the ministry Of war
20 a foreign government The actual
charges were shrouded in secrecy, but
French newspapers declared that Drey-
fus had betrayed or sold important mil
itary information to the German en-
bassy in Paris. This allegation connect
ing the German government officially
with such a reasonable and dishonest
transaction rekindled the fame of hatred
that smolders in French hearts and
created great excitement in Germany.
Fuel was added to the blaze by the
statement that the principal evidence
against Dreyfus was a letter in his
handwriting stolen from the German
embassy.
The Be=Iin press Indignantly denied
that the German embassy was implicit
ed in any such dishonorable transaction,
and Count Won MuensteT, the German
ambassador 20 France, lodged diplomat
&c protest with the French government.
The French minister Of war guardedly
disparaged the idea that the German
embassy was involved officially in the
affair, but She press of Paris continued
20 reiterate the charge
Meanwhile Captain DTeyfus was kept
close prisoner, and his friends were
prevented from communicating with
him The minister Of war ordered a
court martial 10 try Dreyfus, and when
it met its sessions were conducted with
closed doors. The alleged DTeyfus letter
found at the German embassy was
unsigned, but the court martial decided
that it was in Dreyfus' handwriting.
After trial of two days he was CON
victed, and the council If revision con
fruned his sentence. which Is the severest
penalty applicable in time of peace.
Dreyfus' appeal for new trial was re
fused, and dishonor and life innprison-
nnent now stare him in the face The
incident but emphasizes the popular be
lief that France and German are two
armed camps awaiting the signal that
any day may plunge the Two nations in
another Franco Prussian war.

Heavy Cincinnati Failure.

CINCINNATI, O., June 24-John B.
Specker, doing business as Specker
Bros. & Co., wholesale dry goods, Elm
street, assigned today to Adam Kram-
er. The assignment is direct result
of injury to his credit because of his
relations with the recently suspended
Commercial National bank. Suits have
been brought against him on that ac-
count, and they have precipitated this
course. His assets are said to be $780,
600, with liabilities less, though not
definitely ascertained.
Preferences amounting to 100000 were
given. The largest is to the First Ma
tional bank, $500; the next to the
Little Sisters of the Poor, $1,000, and
another of $4,000 to Conrad Ober-
schmidt. Mr.. Specker was a director
of the Commercial National bank and
was indorser for Hellebush, a heavy
borrower from the Commercial Ma
tional. He was sued on this account
for $45,00G Other suits were filed, one
of which was to assess stockholders,
which would have made heavy draft
on Mr.. Specker. Mr.. Specker proposes
to meet his creditors and make an er-
fort to continue his business.

To Improve the Service.

WASHINGTON, June 24.-The post
office department has entered upon a
policy of detailing inspectors to watch
letter carriers on their rounds, and re-
port inattention to duties delays, and
any irregular conduct on their routes.
The operation of the system was be-.
gan about six months ago, but the
plan was not given any publicity, and
it was conducted on a small scale,
only one or two officers being watched.
This was finally broadened, and now
involves offices in number of i'm
portant cities. Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago and Columbus are known to
be among these. Special reports were
made to the department by the in
spectors. Delays in delivering mail at
the houses, unnecessary conversation,
stops on meeting aequaintances, and
waste of time, were generally report
ed, and complaints entered against
the postoffice in the department files.
The system is not yet general, but the
inspection has resulted during the past
five or six months in a reduction of
letter carrier forces of about 100 carri-
ers. Postmasters at a number of these
places have made requests for an ad-
ditional force of carriers, but in many
instances the requests have been fruit
less, and the postmasters have been
told that special reports showed their
force to be sufficient. In some in
stances, notably at Philadelphia, a
material cut in the force has been or
dered. Officials decline to discuss the
matter, but they regard the system
as beneficial, and satisfactory check
on waste of expenditure for the service.

Colorado coal mine operators are ju-
bilant over the new combination they
have formed. which will commence
operations July /. The combination
will be known as the Northern Colo
rado Coal company, and it has al
ready signed contracts with all of the

put at a, stated price per ton, and it
will have a complete monopoly of all
the coal produced in Northern Colo
rado. All mine operators of the Ignite
field are interested in the new COM
pany, either as officers or stockholders,
and contracts have also been made
with the wholesale dealers, who will.
after the first of the month, buy their
coal through the Northern Colorado
company instead Of the mine direct,
as at present. This plan, it Is expect
ed, will insure uniform price for all
ignite coal coming into Denver, or

Strange MaIady That Puzzles the
Naval Doctors.

NEW YORK, June A.-The surgeons
at the navy hospital in Brooklyn are
puzzled by a peculiar malady preva-
lent among the sailors who arrived on
the Chicago during her last cruise.
There are at present about twenty
laid up at the hospital, and half-a-
dozen more are at the Norfolk hos
pital, where they were taken from the
Amphitrite, to which many of the
Chicago's crew were transferred after
the latter vessel went out of commits
sion Although some of the men in
Brooklyn have been under treatment
for six or seven weeks, their condition
has been but little changed. DR.. Bo-
CERT said that the disease from which
the sailors are suffering is well known
in the countries bordering on the
Mediterranean sea, and that there is
no mystery about it. He admitted,
however, that they had not as yet made
a satisfactory diagnosis of the dis
ease, and the patients did not seem to
improve The sailors take different
view of the case. They say the doc

Kerngood May Not he Dead After
All.
BALTIMORE, June A.-The body Of
Jacob S. Kerngood, which was found
floating, in the Niagara river at Lewis
ton last week, and which was buried
here Friday, has been disinterred and
sent to the morgue, where an autopsy
will probably be made. 1t is said that
this action is taken at the instance of
an insurance company's adjuster, who
is not satisfied that the badly decom-
posed corpse is that of Kerngood, not
withstanding the evidence to that eff
feet. Relatives here claim that Kern
good was insured for only $4,000, and
that the last policy was taken out
seven years ago.
