British loops Occupy Khartoum, Egypt,
After Strengthening Thousands of the
Dervishes-France Greatly Stirred Up
Over Revelations In the Drey fus Case
Killed $4,000 Dervishes.

| London: The khalifas forces have
been utterly routed in the Upper Nile
region of Egypt and Khartoum is in
possession of the British Egyptian
forces under Gen. Kitchener. The
town is complete ruin. Khalifa Alb
dullah and Osman Digna, his principal
general, managed to escape, but Alb
! dullah's banner and thousands of pris-
oners were taken. 1t is estimated that
$4,000 of the enemy we're slain. Brit
lsh total casualties were about 500.
The entire British force was engaged
from $3.50 in the morning until sunset.
The dervishes resorted TO their usual
rushing tactics, and were simply
moved down. The khalifa's cavalry
rode pell-mell at the British infantry
column; but the footmen never wav-
cred. The deadly fire poured into the
enemy's rushing ranks caused the death
OF nearly every rider. The heroic
bravery of the dervishes evoked univer-
sal admiration. Time after time their
dispersed and broken forces reformed
and hurled themselves upon the Anglo
Egyptians, their emirs conspicuously
leading and spurning death. Even when
wounded and in death agonies they
raised themselves to fire last shot.
The sirdir, Gen. Sir Herbert Kitche-
ner, with the l1halifa's black standard
captured during the battle. entered
Omdurman. the capital of Mahdiam, at
the head of the Anglo-Egyptian col
umn. Only two British officers were
killed Gen. Kitchener telegraphs:
The remnant OF the khalifa's force
has surrendered and have now a very
large number of prisoners on my hands,
Our cavalry and gunboats are still pur-
suing the khalifa and his chiefs, who
with only about l4p fighting men are
apparently making for Kordofan.''

Died From Lack of Food and Medicines.


Col. Petermann, commanding the
a4th Michigan volunteers, in relating
the deeds of his boys before Santiago
and reciting their sufferings from hum
ger and lack of medical care says; 1.-The
conditions under which the campaign
was carried on were awful. During
the first few weeks the men were only
half fed. My regiment Jared particu-
larly hard, owing to the fact that in
our forced march our baggage had to
be left behind, and what little the men
had was lost or thrown away. We
slept on the bare ground, without shell
ter tents or any protection from the
weather. The want of proper food and
protection has undoubtedly been the
cause of so much sickness. There
seems to have been something wrong
in the management of affairs. The
medical department seems to have
been unable to cope with the condi-
tions; in fact, il seemed to be the poor
est equipped department on the
ground. Medicines could not be got
ten for love nor money. In spite of
the fact that our regimental surgeons
were doing all that could be done, my
men died for the want of proper medi-
cine and food"

Dreyfus May Yet he Free.

Lieut.-Col. Henry, of the French
army, upon being closely questioned
by the war department, was forced TO
confess that evidence which he had
presented in the famous trial of Capt.
Dreyfus and NJ. lola was forged by
himself After being arrested Col.
Henry committed suicide in his prison
cell by cutting his throat.
Capt. Dreyfus was convicted of sell
ing French army secrets to the Ger
man government and was sentenced to
life Imprisonment in big cage on
Devils island off the coast of French
Guiana. Capt. Dreyfus' friends fought
so hard that when NJ. Cavaignac, the
present minister for war. assumed office
he charged the official bureau to make
thorough research of the Drevfus
case, and it was this inquiry which re-
suited in the discovery that the docu-
ment lately read in the chamber of
deputies by NJ. Cavaignac. showing that
proof of the guilt of Dreyfus, was
forged
When Col. Henry was summoned to
the ministry for war and questioned
by NJ. Cavaignac, in the presence OF
Gen. Boisdeffre and others. he first
affirmed the authenticity OF the incrim-
mating document. But when discrep-
ancies were pointed out, he at first
admitted adding sentences and finally
confessed To fabricating the whole
letter. owing to the absolute necessity
for finding proofs against Dreyfus.'
NJ. lola. the famous author. was re-
Gently convicted, after most stormy

officers when he published statements
in behalf of Dreyfus and charging Mai.

ing Dreyfus in order to shield them
selves. The cabinet ministers now adj
NIT that a revision Of the Dreyfus and
lola cases are absolutely Unavoidable
Col Henry's confession threatens to
rekindle the Dreyfus agitation more
heatedly than ever, and il seems likely
to shake public confidence in the army.
Even the Liberte, a strong anti-Drey-
fus organ, says: 1T must cause the
deepest pain to all honorable men that
officers of such standing show such a
lack of moral sense.
Gen. lie Mouton de Boisdeffre, chief
of the general staff of the French army,
has rendered his resignation TO the gov
ernment, owing to his misplaced con-
fidence in Lieut.. Col. Henry, which led
him to present as genuine what was
forged evidence. The disclosures have
also resulted in Count Esterhazy being
retired from the army on a small
pension.

One of the pleasant things about
this war is the utter obscurity into
which it has plunged such artists as
James Corbett and Robert Fitzsim-
mons and Kid Mccoy and Pete
Maher.
A few months ago James and
Robert kept the country on the rag
ged edge of anxiety to know whether
they would get together again. The
papers were full of James hoarse
notes of defiance and challenge to
combat and Roberts contemptuous
refusals. Now they have actually
arranged for a fight, and nobody
outside of the seconds and stake
holders either knows or cares two
cents about it.
SO far as the general public is
concerned it is a matter of the most
supreme indifference just now
whether Bob jams Jim's Solar pick
us back against his vertebra or
lanes knocks Roberts lower jaw
astraddle of his neck.

scrapper, Stevens we balieve his
