CHANCE. FOR DREYFUS.

He Will he Given an Opportunity to Pre-
pare q Defense.
PARIS, Nov. 16.-The court of cassa-
ton has informed the minister Of COL
onies, M. Guillain, that it has decided
that Dreyfus be informed by telegraph
that the revision proceedings have COM
menced, and that he prepare his de-
Tense.
The decision of the court of cessation
to inform the prisoner that the revision
proceedings have commenced and mott.
flying him to prepare his defense is very
significant, as it has hitherto been gen
orally admitted that no innovation
should be introduced in the Dreyfus
proceedings. Questions will now be
drafted and posted to Dreyfus, who will
formulate his replies.
The ministry Of the colonies has re.
ceived a cable dispatch saying Dreyfus
is in good health.

THE TERESA IN BAD SHAPE
CAPTAIN MCCalla Visits Cat
Island and Inspects the
Lost Cruiser.
Expresses the Opinion That
the Vessel Cannot Be
Recovered.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Nov. 16.-An in
cident has occurred at San Luis, about
IS miles north of Santiago, which
caused a great deal of ill feeling among
the Cubans and considerable annoyance
amongst the United States military Off
GERS here. All the United States colored
regiments are encamped in the neigh
borhood Of San Luis. They were sent
there virtually to get them out of the
way because of the difficulty experienced
in managing them, as the colored Off
GERS seem to have little or no control
over their men. The trouble at San
Luis began in an attempt to arrest two
soldiers for abusing a Cuban working
man and stealing his hog. Lieutenant
Jose Ferrera, chief of General Woods
gendarmarie in that section, Spaniard,
but Cuban sympathizer and man
whom General Wood knew to be able
and courageous,
Attempted to Make the Arrests.
The soldiers, who belonged to the Ninth
immunes, escaped. Soon after 80 armed
colored men, wearing the uniform of the
United States, attacked the house where
Lieutenant Ferrera was and kept up q
regular fusilade, killing Lieutenant Fer
rera, Antonio Roman, IN old man.
Emilio Betteran, boy of IL, and baby
and wounding several others. Two SOL
diers were killed in the affray. When
the news reached Santiago General
Wood left on special train for Sar
Luis. The American officers here all
passed the day with no little anxiety
At 8 o'clock General Wood returned, re-
porting that after long investigation
he had come to the conclusion that al
the colored regiments were more or less
mixed up i'll the affray. He has offered
$1,000 reward for the names of the mel
who did the shooting. ~

NOT REPUBLICAN, VICTORY

Colonel Bryan Discusses tho Results Of the
Recent Election.
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 16.--Colonel w.
} Bryan has given to the Associated
E>:ess the following interview relative
t. the late election:
Compared with the election of 1896
the Republicans have gained in some
places and lost in others. It was not a
sweeping Republican victory. On the
contrary. the result is not surprising
when it is remembered that the admin
istration is just concluding successful
war.
While a majority of the soldiers are
probably anti-Republican the manage
ment of the war has been entirely in
Republican hands, and the strongest
argument used during the campaign
was that Republican defeat
Would Discredit tho President
in the eyes of foreign nations. while his
commissioners were engaged in making
treaty.
1T was not a trial upon the issues
now before the people, but successful
plea for continuance of the case. The
people have not accepted the gold
standard. They have not fallen in love
with the plan to give the banks mo-
nopoly of the issue of paper money.
They have not decided to retire the
greenbacks. They have not surrendered
to the trusts.
Neither can the election he regarded
as an endorsement of any definite for
eign policy. Until treaty Of peace has
has been entered into and the terms
made known, the people cannot pass
judgment upon it. Whether the war
will raise any question of sufficient i'm
portance to turn public attention away
from domestic problems remains to be
aeen"

ALWAYS CAUSING TROUBLE
France Rebuked by the Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain.
SHE MUST CHANGE HER TACTICS
Fashoda Incident but "One Of Series
of Unfriendly Acts Perpetrated
in Recent Years."

MANCHESTER, Eng, Nov. 16-At the
national Liberal Unionists' conference
held here Joseph Chamberlain, secre-
tary of state for the colonies, made his
first public appearance since his return
from the United States. Mr.. Chamber
lain, who was much more explicit ON
the subject of foreign relations than
any of his colleagues in the cabinet has
been, said:
"It was the hope of every friend of
peace that French withdrawal from
Fashoda is Indicative Of their accept
ance of the principle of British control
of the whole valley of the 'Nile,i regard
ing which there cannot be any discus
sion whatever.
Going on to recite "series of un-
friendly acts perpetrated by France in
various quarters of the globe during the
last 10 or Is years." he said:
French Must Change Their Tactics.
IF better relations are to be estab-
lished it will be necessary for French
politicians to abandon tactics whose OBJ.
ject has been to embarrass British pol
icy in quarters where the French have
no interests to protect. I refer espe-
cially to Newfoundland, where, despite
the fact that the French fisheries have
been confined to a comparatively insig-
nificant point, the demands of the
French have increased and their inter-
ference with the development Of the col.
ony has increased.
''At the present moment Newfound-
land is seriously suffering from an in.
tervention which is of no interest to
France although serious detriment to
the British colony. The Fashoda Incl
dent only serves to disabuse foreign
statesmen Of the erroneous conception
that the British will yield anything to
preserve a blessing in disguise"
His Reference to America.
After referring to the colonies Mr..
Chamberlain continued as follows:
"What is of equal importance our
American kinsmen loud cheers] have
began to know us BETTER If we have
had differences in the past I hope they
will not stand in the way of proper
understanding, but know that in the
late trouble our hearts went out to them
[cheers] and they heartily reciprocate
our kindly feelings. shall not attempt
to predict what may follow this better
feeling, but may at least hope that in
the future tho understanding of which
have spoken may be perfected and in
the fact of that understanding we two
may be able to guarantee peace and
civilization to the world" Prolonged
Cheers1.

ST. PAUL. Nov. 16:-Another victory

majority the national delegates to the

clared that the w. G. T. y. was under
no moral obligation to redeem the Will

operate with the Temple trustees in
their efforts to raise money with which
to retire them. It was what the Tenn
pleites called triumph over financial
honor and q distinct rebuke to those
who think religious organization is
bound to pay the debts contracted in its
name. The debate was a long and bit
ter one, and just before the vote was
taken Mrs. Carse got the floor and de-
clared she never again would speak be-
fore a national convention Of the w.
