raised in this colony of Cayenne and out

TO the Incarceration OF former Captain
Dreyfus that IL Is now almost treason

The trouble was started by Mr. Novak
who wanted recognition from the Speak
er to make a motion to the call of the
revenue bill to second reading for the
purpose of amendment. This bill was
sent to third reading at the morning ses-

him, as the special order was the Senate

FLOOD OF 1897 OVER AT LAST.
Relief Work Practically Abandoned
Loss Estimated at S14,52O,OOO.

The rapid fall of the Mississippi at all
points from Memphis to the gulf gives
notice that the flood of 1897 is over. 1t
is now conceded by all the engineers,
State as well as national, that there is no
longer need for any fear from high water.
Not even from the rise which comes down
the Mississippi in June. The Mississippi
will have fallen so by June that it can
take care of any rise that may come down
from the Ohio or upper Mississippi. 1t
has been decided also to abandon all re-
lief work, except in few localities. The
colored relief committee at Vicksburg has
dsbanded because it's services are no
longer needed. The refugee camps at
Natchez and Vicksburg have been broken
up and the refugees sent home.
The total area, including wild lands,
overhowed was: Arkansas. 1900 square
miles; Mississippi, $3.50 square miles;
Louisiana, 975 square miles. Much of
the land was swamp.
An estimate of the actual damage done
in the loss of stock and crops, houses de-
stroyed and swept away, and railroad
track injured is: Louisiana, $1,975,O 900:
Arkansas, $4,325y 900; Mississippi, $S,-

the principal of an auger. In guiding the
airship the operator moves the screw from

was cut in Meaney's face, from which the
blood flowed freely. Ii was the stormiest
scene witnessed in the Legislature for
many years.
The trouble started Immediately after
Speaker Curtis called the House to order
at o'clock and lasted for an hour and a
quarter. SO great was the disturbance
that it was heard plainly at the Leland
Hotel six blocks away. During the tur-
mol bill files were smashed by pounding
the desks. waste baskets were hurled in
discriminatory across the hall. members
shouted themselves hoarse, and n free-for-
all fight was prevented only by the action
of cool-headed Democratic members.
The excitement was at fever heat dur
ing all the session, but reached n culmi-
nation point when Mr. Novak. who had
been shouting for recognition for an hour,
left his seat and proceeded up the aisle
to the Speakers desk. The Republicans,
thinking il was his purpose to drag Speak
er Curtis from his chair. made a rush to
defend the Speaker. Mr.. Novak reached
the Speakers platform, and, in the midst
Of war of words with the presiding Off
Ger, he was seized by the coat collar by
Mr.. Needles and dragged from the plat
orm. This was the signal for a rush from
the Democratic side to defend Mr.. Novak,
and In the scramble that cnsued there
was a general "mix-up."
Mr.. Galligan attempted to use a wooden
maIlet which he had procured. Galligan,
with mallet in hand. made leap for the
Speaker. He was angry at being inter-
cepted, and tried to use his mallet on the
heads of those about him, but was pre-
vented. He was dragged down, with a

MAY LEAD TO A WAR.
SENATE PASSES THE MORGAN
BELLiGERENCY RESOLUTION.
Forty.one Members Vote Yea and but
Fourteen Say Nay-Success of Meas-
ure Brings Cheers from the Galleries
-President's Policy Defined.
Decisive Senate Vote.


The long and exciting debate on the
Joint resolution recognizing the existence
of state of war in Cuba and declaring
that strict neutrality shall be maintained
by the United States passed the Senate
by a decisive vote of Al to IA at late
hour Thursday afternoon. The announce
ment of the vote was received with tu-
multuous applause. The resolution as
passed is as follows:
Resolved, etc, That a condition OF
public war exists between the Govern
ment of Spain and the government pro-
claimed and for some time maintained by
force of arms by the people of Cuba, and
that the United States of America shall
maintain a strict neutrality between the
contending parties according to each all
the rights of belligerents in the ports
and territory of the United States.
Analysis of the Vote.
An analysis of the vote shows that the
affirmative was cast by eighteen Repub-
licans, nineteen Democrats and four Pop-
uists, and the negative by twelve Repub-
lcans and two Democrats.
Prior to the final vote the motion of
Senator Hale to refer the resolution to
the Committee on Foreign Relations was
tabled-yeas, "a; nays, 10. Mr.. Fair
banks of Indiana proposed substitute
providing that the President extend the
good Offices of the United States to Spain
toward securing an end to the conflict and
the ultimate independence Of the island.
This. too, was tabled-yeas, 30: nays, 10.
Then followed the adoption of the original
resolution.
The voting occurred after an exciting
debate participated in by Senator'S Thurs
ton of Nebraska, Elkins of West Virginia,
White of California, Fairbanks of In
diana, Hale of Maine, Spooner of Wiscon-
sin and German of Maryland. Mr..
Thurston spoke of the bloody contest
which had ragged during the last two
years. There was ample information as
TO its extent from American correspond
ents who had written their dispatches on
the field of battle, from the reports which
filled the records of the Senate and in the
archives of the State Department. Every
man in the United States ought to be
ready for action on this question at this
time, and if any Senator was not suffi-
ciently informed Mr.. Thurston commend
ed him TO the consideration of his con-
stituents
