REVOLUTION IMMINENT.
The Dreyfus Case Has Reached An Acute
Stage in Paris That Excites the Live
lest Anprebensi0ns,

Paris. Sept 22.--Thc situation here is
generally admitted to be grave by both
the press and people. The conflict be-
tween the civil and military authorities
is becoming acute. The sudden action
of General Zurlnden, military governor
of Paris, in prosecuting Colonel Picquart
on the charge Of forgery and Of using
forged documents assumes grave aspect
on account of the circumstances attend
ing this intervention of the military au-
thorties in a civil court. At the present
moment. when the political atmosphere
is surcharged with dangerous elec-
tricity, generated by Dreyfus, tho gen
eral, who has just quilted the cabinet,
in defiance OF the civil authorities,
takes, without consulting his successor
or premier, an important step. In or
dinary circumstances, the military gov
ernor is empowered to act independent
ly: but, now the Dreyfns question has
become great national matter, and
every proceeding in the affair has a
state Importance. General Zurlinden's
ignoring this obvious iacS is very sig
nlficant. He comes forward as de-
fender of the army the prosecutor OF
its supposed calumniators and resolute
opponent of the revision case. From
this to appeal to the public in the line
of the establishment of IL dictatorship
there is no wide step. The Frondc as
serts that Premier Brisson disavows the
measures taken against Picquart, which
he says were instituted without the
knowledge of the cabinet.

NEWS FROM MANILA
Steamer China Has Arrived at San
Francisco with Major General
Greene and staff.
INSURGENT AGENTS ABOARD
Aguinaldo Expects Ultimate Independence
Greene Does Not Expect Further
Trouble with Filipinos Health
Conditions Improving.

San Francisco, Sept. 2s--The steamer
China, from Hongkong, and the Naga-
sakl, are in the harbor. The China
showed q clean bill of health, SO was
not put in qarantne. General Merritt
did not come on the China, as was eX-
pectcd but Brlgadier General Greene
and staff are on board with $50 soldiers
returned from Manila on account 1y3f
sickness.
Among the passengers on the China
were seven prlvates who came back be-
cause of the expiration of their terms OF
service.
Among the passengers were Filipino
Agoncillo and Jose Lopez, who are go
ing to Washington as representatives of
General Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader
Agoncillo declines to make public what
Aguinaldo wants or expects, but states
that the insurgents generally look for
ultimate Independence.
General Greene says he received his
orders to return to San Francisco the
same day General Merritt received or
ders to proceed to Paris by the way of
the Suez. With reference to the re-
port that he was recalled owing to his
action in conducting an illegal court
martial at sea, General Greene says
Major General L. S. Otis gave him the
cases to try, and showed him para
graph in the articles of war, giving him
authority to try them. The cases were
tried according to General Otis orders
and the findings of the court were later
reversed by the Washington authori-
ties.
General Greene says there is no truth
in the story that he had trouble with
General Merritt On the contrary, he
says, they are the best of friends. Gen
eral Greene expressed the opinion there
would not be any trouble with Aguinal-
do, but declined to 60 into details.

COLONEL BRYAN IN WASHINGTON.
Desires That the Sick in His Regiment
Should Be Mustered 0ut-Made No
Reference to Resigning.

Washington, Sept. 22.--Coloncl Wm.
j. Bryan, of the 3rd Nebraska volun-
teers, was at the War department today,
and accustomed as much interest among
the employees as returned Santiago
hero. Colonel Bryan was accompanied by
Governor Holcomb and Representative
Stark of Nebraska. Neither to the
acting secretary of war nor to the
adiutant general did Colonel Bryan or
Governor Holcomb make any request
regarding the mastering out of the 3rd
Nebraska regiment or alludc to the
desires of Colonel Bryan in reference to
the subject.
After leaving the War department
Colonel Bryan and party went to the
White house, where they were cordially
received by President Mckinley and re-
manned in conference with him for more
than an hour. They did not prefer IL
request for mastering out the regiment
as whole, but for the discharge Of
such members as are disabled by disease
or have peculiar calls upon them. They
represented that about 20 per cent Of
the members of the regiment are i'll, and
urged that these should be relieved. The
president made no positive promise.
Colonel Bryan said, as he left the White
house, that he would return to his regi-
ment tonight.

Emperor of China Has Abdicated.

Pekin, Sept. ss.-An imperial edict
has just issued definitely announc-
ing that the Emperor of China has
resigned his power to the empress
(the dowager emprcss) who has ordered
the ministers to deliver to her in the fu-
ture their official reports.
1t is difficult to obtain reliable infor.
nation at the palace in regard to the
proceedings, but recent reformatory
odicts probably caused the change.
While the emperor was subservient and
a mere figure head, the dowager en-
press permitted him to remain in peace,
but as soon as he attempted to act OH
his own initiative, his practical deposi.
ton was the result. His principal ad.
wiser, Kang Yumoi, Cantonese re-
former, fled in spite OF vigorous at.
tempts made to arrest him, and it is
said he is now on his way to Shanghai
The effect of the change must bt
great. In all probability Ii Hung Chang
will be reinstated in power and Russian
influence will increase.
