Strikers Forcibly Demanded the surrcn-
der Of Negro Miners.
A dispatch from Pana, ILL.,, states
that on Thursday afternoon six hun
dred striking miners seized David j..
Oyerholt and Lewis Overholt, presi-
dent and superintendent, respectively,
Of the Springside mines.
The two officials were taken out Of
their buggy by the mob and carried in
the direction Of the mines.
Rev. DIR. Willard, minister OF
Pana, made plea to the miners to re-.
lease the Overholts and was knocked
on the head with revolver for his
pains. The two officers were dragged
from their buggy in front Of the Balti'
more and Ohio Southwestern depot
The seizure was made for the purpose
Of demanding the surrender OF negro
miners who had been working In the
union mems places.
The miners were ovsrtaken by the
state officials and committee OF the
miners union and halted. d. j. and
Lewis Overholt gave the committee ON

SENSATION IN DREYFUS CASE
FORGER OF CONNECTING EVIDENCE
COMMITS SUICIDE WITH RAZOR.
COL. HENRY MADE CONFESSION.
All France IL Wrought Up Over the Affair
Drsyfas Case VIII De
Reopened.

A Paris cable dispatch says: Lien.
tenant Colonel Henry, who had been
arrested on the discovery that he was
the author OF an important letter
which figured In the Dreyfus case, has
committed suicide. He cut his throat
with razor which he had concealed
in his valise.
It appears that 80 soon as NJ. Cav.
aignac assumed the Office OF minister
for war he charged the official bureau
to make O thorough research Of the
Dreyfus case, and it was this inquiry
which resulted In the discovery Of
documents lately read in the chamber
Of deputies by NJ. Cavaignac, showing
that proof Of guilt Of Dreyfus was
forged.
When Colonel Henry was summoned
TO the ministry Of war and questioned
by NJ. Cavaignac In the presence Of
General Boisedeffere and others, he ct
first affirmed the authenticity Of the
discriminating document. But when
discrepancies were pointed out he at
first admitted adding sentences and
finally confessed to fabricating tho
whole letter. 1t is affirmed. however,
that while the discovery has not
changed M. Cavaignac's belief In Gull
pability Of Dreyfus, the minister is
determined to punish all the guilty
parties, no matter what their rank or
position may be.
Colonel Henry confessed to having
committed forgery, owing to the abso-
Lutte necessity for finding proofs against
Dreyfus. 1t Is understood that the doc
ument in question is the letter which
hitherto has been alleged to have been
written by the German military attache
to the italian military attaehe in o.
tober, 1896.
1t is reported that at Wednesdays
cabinet meeting the ministers admitted
that revision of the Dreyfas trial
was absolutely unavoidable and pub
lie announcement that the ministry
has decided to initiate such revision
is expected soon.
During the recent lola trial Henry
accused Colonel Picquart Of fal,ifying
kilograms. A duel followed, In which
Henry was wounded. The next scene
occurred in the chamber Of deputies,
where Colonel Picquart proclaimed the
latter a fogero, and as result was ar
rested, while Henry's villainy was re-
warded by his being appointed Colonel
Picquart's successor in the intelligence
department.

drowned of Tybee island during the

trying to reach the italian bark Noe

The Noe went aground and the crew

A special from Paris states that the
suicide Of Colonel Henry has aroused

that the rest OF the general staff Of the
French army will follow the example
Of General Boisdeffre, the chief Of
staff, and OF General Gonse, the under
chief, and tender their designations.
1t appears that the minister Of war,
M. Cavaignac, Is convinced that Col
onel Henry had accomplices In the
forgery Of the discriminating docu.
ment. Colonel Henry left letters ad

tested that he had not realized the

ION this day, so important to you

q word OF warm gratitude. From my
tenderest years you have surrounded
me with your love. From ell parts OF
the kingdom, from all classeso OF society,
young and old, / have always received
striking proofs Of attachment. After
the death Of my venerated father, all
your attachment to the dynasty was
transferred to me. On this day 7 am
ready to accept the splendid though
weighty task whereto ] have been called
and feel myself supported by your
fidelity. Receive my thanks. My exper.
once hitherto has left ineffaceable i'm.
press.ons, aud 1t is an earnest OF the
future. My dearly loved mother, to
whom / am immensely indebted, set
me an example by her noble and ex-
allied conception OF the duties which
henceforth devolve upon me. The aim
OF my life will be to follow her exam
pie, and to govern in the manner ex-
pected OF princess OF the house Of
Orange True TO the constitution, I
desire to strengthen the respect for
the name and flag OF The Netherlands.
AS soveign Of possessions and colonies

tice and to contribute so far as In me
lies in the Increasing intellectual and
material welfare of my whole people.

A special from Columbia says: The
primaries throughout South Carolina
developed the strength Of the prohibit
tionists in the state far beyond the
calculations OF tho dispensary advo-
Gates. As result the prohibition
candidate for governor will make the
rocco against Ellerbe, and the indica-
tions are the fight will be warm one.
OF the 27,943 votes accounted for,
Governor Ellerbe has received 5000,

Featherstone is the out.and-out pro.
hibition candidate and indications are
that he will enter the race against tho
governor, who defends the dispensary.

Crew and Hospital Corps Have Narrow
Escape--The Affair a Mystery.
The hospital ship Olivette, which
has been lying near the quarantine
station at Fernandina, Fla, through
some mysterious agency sank Tuesday
morning about $3.50 o'clock.
Aboard Of her was hospital corps
of thirty.five and a crew of forty-f
persons, all Of whom escaped, but in
scanty attire.
The roustabouts sleeping in the
lower hold had a narrow escape, being
driven from their hunks like so many
rats. Fortunately for those aboard,
there was q schooner near by and
some of them took shelter on her,
while others sought refuge at the
quarantine station.
The Olivette went down in about
thirty feet Of water, her main deck
being submerged at high tide.
No one apparently knows how the
calamity could have occurred, and as
no investigation has yet been made,
the matter remains mystery.

What is the use of making better ar
ticle than your competitor if you cannot

Ans-As there is no difference in the

How can you get the public TO know

If both articles are brought prominently
before the public both are certain TO be
tried and the public will very quickly pass
