DREYFUS
The Due D'Orleans Issues a Manifesto
Indited In Extreme Bitterness To-
ward the Condemned.

Paris, Sept. 20.-The Due D'Orleans
has issued a manifesto denouncing the
D~reyfusites. The manifesto begins
thus:
AT last the promoters Of the odious
plot against the honor and security of
the fatherland have thrown off their
mask. inundated by them, the min
listers have lowered themselves so far
as to become their accomplices."
The Due D'Orleans accuses the min
istry of seeking n revision of the Drey-
fus proceedings, while convinced that
Dreyfus was guilty, under preteXt of
calming the public, for their own prof
it. He declares hat the prospect
makes his heart culver, and he con-
cludes his manifesto in these words:
"Frenchmen, we are masters in
our country. Your servants,
subject to occult and pernicious pow
er, presume to impose upon you the
will to which they submit under pre-
text of proving the innocence of a man
whom the military tribunals have con-
demned as a traitor. 1t is the army
they are trying to destroy, and
France they are striving to ruin.
"~Frenchmen, we will not allow it."

PHILIPPINES FOR AMERICA.
Archbishop OF the Archipelago
Prefer to Become Americans.

Manila, Sept. lin an interview
here Archbishop Dozal, of the Philip.
pine Islands, said:
Il earnestly hope the islands will
not remain Spanish, because they are
now SO strong that such a course
would inevitably cause appalling
bloodshed. The reconquest of the ma
tives is impossible until after years OF
the most cruel warfare"
Hopes the Islands will Not Become Inde-
dependent.
He also expressed the hope hat the
islands would not become absolutely
independent, because it is certain that
d~lssensions would occur which would
result in incessant strife and lapse
into barbarism and the natural indo-
lence of the tropical race. The only
hope, the archbishop said, was that
a strong western power would now
intervene. The danger was that the
people were intoxicated, vainglorious
and restless.
The Religious Orders Must Go.
1t is undeniable that the religious
orders must go, because the whole
people had determined to abolish them
now that they were able to render
their retention impossible. He lays the
chief blame upon the Dominicans,
Augustinians and Franciscans, the
richest organizations, and next upon
the Benedictines and Capuchins. which
are of less Importance. The Jesuits,
Archbishop Dozal says, are compare
lively blameless. He added that the
rival organizations quarrel among
themselves, intrigue, act unworthily
and slander their opponents, thus in
creasing the general disfavor.
The p~rovincials, who are approxi-
mately equivalent to a~rchdeacons, are
mainly responsible. They are utterly
beyond the control of the archbishop,
who denies possessing much power.
Few Spanish Priests Remain.
The total number of Spanish priests
III the Philippines before the war was
about 11,OOO, but lately every depart
ing steamer has taken so or 100 Of
them away and now barely 500 of
them remain.
1t was stated to the correspondent
thai the reason that the archbishop
hopes for the expulsion of the friarly
orders, is that they have grown too
powerful for him and that he wishes to
strengthen himself. Several espon-
sible Spaniards assured the correspon-
dent that they would refuse to remain
here if Spain was reinstated in the
control of the stations.
Spanish Soldiers Refuse to Serve Again
AnneIationist Majority.
The Spanish soldiers refuse to serve
again, and the Spanish officers are ut
terly Disguised with the rottennesss
of SPANS government and prefer to
become Americans.
The anneXationists have u majority
of II in the national assembly, but the
discussion of the subject has not been
finished.

They May Not be Afixed-Wu

Washington, Sept. 2O.-Upon official
information received at the treasury
department that certain railroad COM
panies are not affiXing the required
two-cent revenue stamps to rebate
checks given to passengers when fares
are paid to the conductors, the COM
m~issionerof internal revenue has given
instructions that evidence be produced
with a view to instituting proceedings
against these companies for violation
of the law.
The commissioner has held that pol
icies of life insurance issued since july
1 are taxable, without regard to the
fact that the premiums may have been
paid, and the business acquired prior
to that date.
He has also held that all checks
drawn by officers of states, counties
and municipalities, for the discharge
of the obligations of the states, coun-
ties and municipalities are exempt
from stamp tax.

are spreading in every direction. The
most threatening of these flows
through the Vedrino valley, which is
almost filled. The observatory, which
originally stood at a height of 61O me-
tiers, is now only 81 meters above the
sen level, owing to the sinking of the
ground. Seven new rraters have
formed around the central one.

HOW TO SECURE A DISCHARGE.
Soldiers Who Want to Terminate Their
Military Service should Observe the
War Department Rules.

Washington, Sept. 20.-The follow
ing statement is given out at the wal
department:
The wal department is Just at pres
ent undergoing an experience which
illustrates the alacrity with which the
average American citizen hastens to
his senator or representative n con-
gress for aid in emergencies.
THE cessation of hostilities and the
improbabiIity of their renewal, with
the dullness of camp life, has appar-
emily created Il feeling OF Iestlessness
among the men of the volunteer army,
who, in the majority OF cases, have
given up positions of larger comPensa-
ton, and many of them are i%mploring
their political representatives to OBJ
tain their discharges, and the latter in
turn are flooding the department with
requests for prompt and immediate
action.
A Privilege Abused.
$40 such an abuse of privilege has
this grown that the war department
has been obliged to call attention to
that paragraph of the army regula-
tons which requires that all communi-
cations from subordinates to superiors
must pass through military channels,
and to decline, as a rule, TO entertain
applications for discharges of enlisted
men, unless they come to it in the
proper manner.
How to secure a Discharge.
"a soldier who is DESTROYS of secur-
ing his discharge and has good and
sufficient reasons upon which to base
it, will save himself a great amount of
time and trouble if he will set forth
the reasons for his discharge in a let
ter addressed to the Acknowledgement
of the army and hand it to the captain
of his company, who, in turn, is re-
quired to forward it to the colonel of
the regiment, and the latter to pass it
along through brigade, division and
corps headquarters, with their recon-
mendation. Unless this is done, the
department will send the papers back
TO the company commander.
Public Policy Will Not Admit of 1t.
The department has also promul-
gated another ruling in this connec-
ton which is to the effect that public
policy will not permit at this time the
consideration of applications for dis
charges of men serving in the Philip
pine islands, Honolulu, Cuba, or Por-
to Rico.
The reasons for this are obvious.
Aside from the question of ~transporta-
ton involved and the necessity of
supplying the places of men who are
so be discharged with others from
the states, it is to be remembered
that the war is not over and that much
depends upon the results and delibera-
tons of the peace commissioners, who
have sailed for Paris"

Annual Statement of the Commissioners
Interesting Facts About 1.-THE PaIa.
dunn of Our ties"

Washington, Sept. 20.-The annual
statement Of the commissioner of edu.
cation has been submitted to Secre-
tary Bliss. The report shows satisfac-
tory results for the work of the year
ending June 80, 1898.
"One cause of congratulation on the
part of those who hold the doctrine
hat popular education is the safe
guard of our Institutions says the
report, lis the continued prosperity Of
the elementary schools. The increase
during the year 1S96-97 amounted to
1880 pupils over the previous year
The total enrolled in the elementary
schools amounted to 15,452,426 pupils.
Adding to it those in colleges, univer.
sites, high schools and academies, the
total number reached 16,255,093."
Five Years the Average of school Attend
ance.
The total amount of schooling re.
ceived per individual on an average for
the whole United States at the rate of
school attendance for 1897, is nearly
five years of 200 days each. and reaches
quite seven years in a few of the
states that are the most lavish in their
expenditures for education. A little
more than one-fifth of the entire pop.
ulation attended school at some time
during the year.
The Increase In Colleges and Universities
\ still greater occasion for con-
pr1fn1nfiOn ~ &c ctofa1 &c fhn Snoranca
of students in colleges and universe
ties. This increase has gone on stead
lily for 25 years. In 1872 only 500 per-
sons in the million were enrolled in
those institutions. In 1897 the unm-
Der had risen to 1916 in the million,
being more than double the number.
Important Changes in Regard to Admis.
siOns to Colleges.
During the same period there has
been an important change in regard
to conditions of admission to college.
The standard has been raised to such
an extent as to require an average of
a years work more in preparation for
the freshman class. Considering the
elevated standard, it is safe to estimate
the number in higher education, meas
ured by the standard of 1872, as three
times as large as in 1897, or IS years
before. This increase was most re-
markable in those students taking
what are called postgraduate studies
and engaged in the work of original
Investigations. The professional stu
dents in the schools of law, medicine
and theology increased during the
same period, and during the same Pc
iod scientific and technical schools
multiplied.
Continually Increasing Demand for Higher
Education.
In view of the continually increas-
ing demand for higher education, says
the statement, the increase of profess
sional education, and especially the
rapid growth of that class of students
that make special expert studies in
postgraduate work, is in the highest
degree assuring.
Statistics of Education.
\ large portion of the report is de-
voted to statistics of education in the
United States. During the year there
