At the Tacon theater Saturday night
there was produced play based upon
the Dreyfus trial, in which Dreyfus
was portrayed throughout as an inno-
cent victim Of conspiracy in the French
army From the start the sympathy
OF the audience for Dreyfus was plainly
manifested. Four Frenchmen, one OF
whom Is supposed to have been an Off.
Ger OF the French gunboat Fulton, now
lying in the harbor, occupied n box In
the first tier. All OF them carried
boatswains' whistles, and at tho first
insinuation against the honesty OF the
trial they began to blow the whistles
and to hiss the players, A scene of
indescribable tumult followed, tho en-
tire audience rising in defense OF
Dreyfus,
The Frenchmen were forcibly eject
ed and the performance was continued
without further interruption. One OF
the Frenchmen, he who was thought
to be IN officer OF tho Fulton, refused
to give his name at the station house,
to which the party was taken after be-
ing elected from the theatcr, and was
locked up over night.
OGeneral Blanco has prohibited the
future production Of the play in Ha-
vana.
A difference,o of opinion between Gu
bans and Spanish officers in promi-
nent cafe here resulted in an exchange
Of abusive language and free fight
The disturbance was promptly quelled
by the police and the ringleaders were
arrested. The disorder is said to have
been provoked by the Cubans.
