the foundry department. 10 of the un-
fortunate horses are dead. OF the six

to Kill four The poor animals were so
badly burned that 1t would have beer
inhuman to have let them live and suf-
fer. The six horses which were still in
the barn when the firemen succeeded In
forcing their way through the flames,
were all found to be dead. The animals
bore no marks of having been burned,
but had evidently been suffocated. One
OF the horses that was left in the barn
was Superintendent Hickey's private
buggy horse n was highly priced by
him.
The fire was the most difficult to han

There were a great many tons of hay
in the loft and the volumes of smoke
that poured out of the doors and win
dows were sufocating. and the iremen
could not get near the place. Besides
the smoke, the hay burned fercely, and
when a stream of water was turned
onto 1t and stirred IL up, IL blazed up
all the more furiously. Had 1t not been

the box was pulled. The whistle OF the

upper works responded TO the alarm

services were not required. however,

1t is still the opinion Of Mr.. Hickey
that the fire was OF incendiary origin.
He states that 1t would not be possible
for the fire to have been caused by
electric wires, as there were no wires
less than 40 feet from the point where
the fire started.

the interests of sick soldiers of the
Second Nebraska. He had received a
telegram from Omaha saying that
these soldiers were arriving there
without provision having been made
for their care. Secretary Alger at
once directed that the adjutant gen.

WIFE PLEADS FOR JUSTICE.
Nine. Dreyfus' Plea for Husband to 3s
Heard by France.


Heard by France.
PARIS, Sept. 5.-Owing to the resig-
nation of NJ. Godefrcy Cavaignac, min
lister of war, President Faure returned
to Paris and conferred with NJ. Del
Case, minister of foreign affairs; NJ.
Bourgeois, minister of public educa-
ton, and General Zurlinden.
The cabinet will meet to-day ex-
pressly to deal with request from
Nine. Dreyfus for revision of the
proceedings of the court martial that
condemned her husband.
AS the cabinet is now practically
unanimous in favor of revision-partiy
because the ministers are aware that
there is no other method of satisfying
public feeling-the outcome of the
meeting is almost foregone conclu-
sion.
In her letter to NJ. Sarrien, the min
lister of jus tice, Nine. Dreyfus says she
addresses him again, since he alone
has the right to demand revision on
the ground of new fact" She ar
CUES that Lieutenant Colonel Henry's
admission of forgery deprives his dep
ositions and acts of all weight. and
concludes her appeal by calling upon
NJ. Sarrien to ''listen to the voice of
public opinion and put an end to the
punishment of loyal and innocent
man."

tiago ut Montank.
CAMP WKoFF, Sept. 5.-President
Mckinley spent five hours in the camp
Saturday. bareheaded most of the time,
visiting the sick in the hospitals and
inspecting the well in their canton
ments. He made a speech to the as
sembled infantrymen, reviewed the
cavalrymen, expressed his opinion of
the camp to the reporters and issued
an order directing the regulars to re-
turn to their stations east of the Mis-.
sissippi.
With the President. besides the Sec
rotary of War, were: Vice-President
Hobart, Attorney-Gcneral Griggs, SEN
ator Proctor, of Vermont, Brigadier-
General Egan. Brigadier-General Lud-
ington. Major Webb c. Hayes. son of
the late President Hayes Colonel NJ.

NICK. Barber, of Canton H. Fl. Her
rick, of Cleveland Secretary Porte,
and Assistant Secretary Cortelyou.
The women of the party were: Mrs.
Alger and Miss Hecker.
Major-General Wheeler was sur
rounded by number of his staff. The
carriages, preceded by the cavalry,
wound up the hill to General Wheeler's
headquarters.
There the President took a long
view of the wide, treeless expanse.
checlsered with regimental camps and
hospitals, cases of canvas amid
stretches of grass.
This is beautiful" Mr.. Mckinley
said, and then later: 81 think I never
saw haudsomer camp"
After two minutes wait, the Pres
ident drove through the detention
camp to Major General Skaters tent.
The general was in full uniform, but
his face was flushed with fever. He
endeavored to rise from the chair in
which he sat as the President entered
the tent.
Don't get up, general" said Mr..
Mckinley, as they shook hands. You
are entitled to rest. How are you?"
"a little achy," replied the general,
'but otherwise all right
