DuPUYS DISCRIMINATE N.


Paris, Nov. 4.-The chamber of depu-
ties reopened toeay with crowded as
sembly after its adjournment Of Oct.
20, the day of the fall of the cabinet
presided over by M. Brisson. Amid
great animation the new premier, M.
Dupuy, read the ministerial declaration.
He began by declaring the cabinet fully
recognized the difficulties and RESPONSE
bilities of the task undertaken and
affirmed the supremacy of civil powev
as the fundamental principle Of a re-
publican state, and expressed conf
dence in the army, which, he added,
would faithfully respect the laws of the
republic.
Continuing NJ. Dupuy said: 1--WE do
not leave the national army a butt TO
the campaign of insult waged against
it If we place it above the blind polem-
les which futilely seek to throw uniust
responsibilities upon it. The army Is
still more entitled to the solicitude and
protection of the public powers since If
can only work usefully for the security
1t is equally necessary that calmness
attend the work of justice, and our
duty is to insure the execution of its
decisions, whatever they may be.
M. Dupuy then emphasized the ina
perative necessity of fulfilling the OBJ
legations of the exposition of 1900. and
continued: France must neglect moth
ing to maintain the position she has
won by her loyalty, strength and love
of peace. She must devote herself to
Strengthening this position, which was
consecrated before the whole world Nv
a precious alliance"

VAN WICK AT ALBANY.
The Democratic Candidate Continues to
Speak on Canal Issue.

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 4.-Judge Angus
tus Van Wyck, the democratic nominee
for governor addressed an audience of
5000 persons at IIalmanus Blocker
Hall here tonight.
Judge Van Wyck was escorted from
the Kenmore Hotel to the hall by the
famous democratic phalanx of this city,
and the entire route Of march was
lined with cheering people. When
Judge Van Wyck appeared on the
stage, the audience rose and cheered
until it was hoarse. Mayor Van AL
styne acted as presiding officer and in
troduced Judge Van Wyck. He said in
part;
Il find that in Syracuse my opponent
propounded at least one question which
is unnistakeable in order in a cam
paign of the governorship. He desired
to be informed under which admins
tration, his or mine, a. canal ring has
grown up and flourished, and is at this
moment very much in evidence, al
though he does not seem to have learn
ell the fact. Since / have plainly la
ken more interest in the canal than my
opponent, my administration would be
likely to be better Informed than his
concerning that subject
If he is elected, he will. it is evil
dent, be under many obligations to the
members of the canal ring. If they
feared hostility at his hands, they
would not ke exerting themselves day
and night to place him in the executive
chamber at Albany. The good, old
American rule is to punish the party
which has done wrong by turning it
out of office. This was done with the
party which fostered the canal ring
which Mr. Tilden broke up. The main
issue now, as in 1874, admits of no eva
sion-the issue of plain integrity
against systematic swindling cloaked
with the colors Of national patriotism"

Santiago de Cuba, Nov. 4.-Dr
Woodson, medical inspector of the mil

cruiser Cincinnati, after visiting Hol-
gum, Gibara, Baracoa, lSagua de Tana-

1'he whole country between the two

needed there. as we'll as delicacies for

Gen. Wood will soon leave to make a

vice of his friends not to do so.
Col Ray OF the Third immune regi-
ment reports a recent ARRAY on the
Santa Isabel plantation between two
of his men, who were guarding cattle,
and some 10 insurgents. Three of the
Cuhans are believed to have been
wounded but their comrades carried
them off.
Col. Ray sent for the Cuban general,
Perez, and questioned him regarding
the matter declaring that he was pos
tive the men were of Perez's com
mand. He insisted that If Perez kept
his men under arms he should also
keep them in camp.
II cannot understand your object"
said. Col. Ray to Perez, I'm keeping
your men armed in American terrific
ry. Are they armed against the Am
orleans? There are no Spaniards in
arms within a hundred miles. What is
the necessity Of doing what can only
lead to further trouble?'
Gen. Perez said he would issue or
ders restraining his men from similar
predatory attempts.
Col. Ray replied: IT shall treat all
armed Cubans caught stealing or try
ing to steal cattle. as bandits. There
is no reason why these men should not
go to work"

IMPERIALISM.
Ex-Secr'y Boutwells Vigor-
GUS Speech on This Subject.

Cambridge Nov. 4,-George S. Bout
well, ex-secretary of the treasury Of
the United States, addressed the Can
tabriga Club this afternoon upon the
subject of Imperialism.
Mr.. Boutwell's sentiments were loud
ly applauded. In the course Of his re-
marks he said: IF American institu-
tons of government are to be set up
and established firmly in other coun-
tries, the ideas on which our institu-
tons rest, must, in anticipation, have
been accepted by the people. Hence, l
condemn the attempt to extend Ameri-
can institutions by the sword. Let the
institutions wait until the world is con-
quered by ideas.
1t has been our boast that within
this republic we had founded states
freed from the dominion of church,
that we had founded a republic in
which it was said it was possible to
establish a church freed from the dom
ination of the state. This is the leg
acy which has come down to us from
the Pilgrims of Plymouth and the
Catholics OF Maryland Let not the
army the navy, and the young men
of the republic be employed in setting
up state which must in the end fall
under the domination of a church.
Instructed by Senator Hears speech,
| qualify the propositions before me in
this form:
'1-Give to Hawaii a territorial gov
eminent and upon liberal basis
Insist upon an independent gov
eminent for Cuba and give no encour-
agement to the project for annexation.
''3-Abandon Porto Rico and the
Spanish islands of the Pacific ocean
without controversy, debate or nego-
tiations with any one"

Congressman Lawrence and Mccall
Speak Against the Annexation.

Greenfield, Nov. 4.-Consressmen
Lawrence and Mccall and Herbert
Parsons, candidate for state senator,
were the speakers at an enthusiastic
republican rally tonight. e. A. Hall
presided. and introduced Mr.. Law
renee as "our present and next con-
gresham" On the question Of the an
neXation Of the Philippine islands, Mr..
Lawrence reiterated his former state
ment of his position, opposition to the
United States attempting to govern
alien and subject provinces.
IF we now attempt to exercise sover-
eighty over the Philippines we not
only subject ourselves to charges of
Inconsistency, but we depart from the
teachings of our history and invite Sc
rious trouble, possibly disaster, upon
a republic which has been made safe
and strong by keeping out Of foreign
iIhbroglios."
Congressman Mccall also declared
against annexation Of the Philippines
on the ground that it would not pay
us to do so, and that we cannot take
them with a clear conscience or for our
own good"

goats for official thieves, have been

third prisoner convicted Of the same
crime, for he died eight days before
the American army entered the city.
When Capt. Moffatt, superintendent
Of the prisons, began his Investigations
Of the cases of the prisoners confined
in Bilibid, Rosales and Reyes declared
that they were unjustly suffering for
the crimes of others, and begged that
their case be reopened~
They averred that Weyler and his
associates had looted the treasury of
$1,300,O00 in Mexican silver, and that
they had been accused of the crime
and sent to Jail.

Null started from the caboose for the

his gold watch and 49, all the valuables
on his person. The men then ordered
him to proceed to the engine, and
