Mile voye obtained permission of the police to march before the club crying, "Vive PArmee."
 By midnight those who had been ar rested were released and quiet had been restored in the Palace de fOpera. There were only trif1ing manifestations elsewhere.

That Never Ending Army Scandal Threatens to Cause Social
 Revolution.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PARIS, Jan. IA great anti-Drey- fus and anti-S Semitic meeting at the Tivoli Vauxhall produced extraordinary scenes. The neighborhood was pa trolIed by police, mounted and on foot, and the rapidly growing crowd in- creased the excitement. At o'clock, on the opening of the meeting, the hall was a seething sea of humanity, crowd ing every part, gesticulating, shouting, "A bas Zola,' ''Vive fArmee," and "Vive revolution sociale." The members of the anti-Semitic committee display ed banners bearing the words, Death to the Jews" and wore inscripti S. It was soon seen that the 5000 present consisted largely of anarchists and others bent on opposing the students.
 On NJ. Guerin. the president, propos- ing that the honorary presidency be conferred upon NJ. Rochefort and M. Drumont, a great uproar ensued, the anarchists trying to wrench the ban ners from the anti-Semitics. Scuffles took place, in which two of the officials were injured.
 Nj. Thiebaud delivered an address de- nouncing the Jews and urging the meeting to support the Government.
 Tumults and fights for the banners contiued. with shouting. whistling and singing of the Marseffafs1 e. gf the Car magnole, while NJ Thiebaud proceeded in a violent speech declaring that the Dreyfus scandal was the commence ment of a social revolution by "a band of scoundrels desiring to overthrow everything in order to raise a traitor"
 The scene now became a saturnalia The anarchists removed the iron stair case giving access to the tribune, so that the committee was unable to de- scend. Free fights began around the flags. Finally the students chased the anarchists out of the hall. The organ izers of the meeting then seized the flags decorating the hall and arranged a rendezvous at the military club, cry ing "Vice PArmee."
 The hall partially emptied, but soon the anarchists returned and, breaking open the great doors, began further ! fighting It is alleged that several were l injured. Finally the students were van quished and the anarchists were mas | ters of the situation. The meeting broke up and the anarchists replaced i the ladder and invaded the tribune, led | by NJ. Curtois, f1ourishing a red flag and all shouting, "Conspuez Rochefort'' (spit upon RocheforO and Long live Zola."

the direction of the bridges. Several attempts to cross the river were rus trated, but eventually a large number reached the Place de la Republique. In one case the crowd stopped in front or a shop that bore the name Lew, shouting, Death to the Jews Let us pillage, let us pillage." The students at the rear, ignorant of the cause Of the delay, pushed on, and the mass continued its onward course, after at tempts in various directions to reach the principal boulevards. always frus- trated by the police. Many were ar rested. The students were now joined by the riff-raff of the city, but finally desisted until evening.
 The students. having the sympathy Of the authorities. were treated with sig nal forbearance by the police, who only kept them within necessary bounds. According to some accounts. twenty people were wounded in the cavalry charge outside the Tivoli Hall, which the police eventually cleared. The irn- prisoned committee in the tribune was unable to make itself heard and hung out a placard announcing that the pro- ceedings were closed.
 There Is no doubt that the policy of the Government is beginning to be strongly assailed. General Billet. Min ister of War. is especially the object of attack and the smallness of the major ity in the Chamber of Deputies to-day indicates the waning of M. Meline's in fuence.
 The Cabinet was only saved from de- feat bv the votes of MonarchiStS and BouIangists. The Libre Parole accuses General Elliot of illegally spending 150.- l 900 francs of the war office funds in bribing the press during the present | crisis.

I am just as confident now that the water company has no more intention of entering into negotiations in good faith with the city than it has of deeding its property to charity, as I was a year ago.
 We have been striving ever since went into office to get the company down to business. But 1t has delayed and procrastinated and put matters off. It has muzzied the daily press and pre- vented the people gaining any accurate information as to what the situation as to municipal ownership was. Every ef- fort we have made to do something for the people in this matter the Times, Herald and Express have ridiculed and made light of. In the Council the wa ter company's forces are strongly or ganized and held well in hand.
 "The corporation Is playing for stake of a million and a half, and 1t can afford to effect many combinations to carry its point. Everything is being carefully looked after by the manipu- lators.
 Now that The Call has determined to give the people of Los Angeles hearing in the settlement of this great and important question, which means so much for the municipality. we have renewed hope of our ability to protect the peoples interests. The communi- cation that was put in to-day by Sec retary Mott is a tumble of words ab- solutely without meaning.

There were several embarrassing cir cumstances connected with the arrival of President Sanford B. Dole of Hawaii yesterday morning, but they did not seem to ruffle his usual good temper or | inconvenience him in any manner, ex- cept that he did not know just how to act. The Presidents wife accompanies him.
 Heretofore the arrival of potentates from the distant islands of the sea has been the occasion of burning a great deal of Government powder by firing a salute. In the case of the President of Hawaii there was nothing whatever to indicate that person of rank had ar rived.
 The few people who got aboard the l Peru told MT. Dole Market street was ! decorated; that General Shafter had 1 been instructed to meet him with an escort, and that his reception was to be brilliant one. Accordingly, news was sent to the Mail dock that the President of Hawaii was going to leave l the steamer in tug and land at the | Clay-street float, whence he was | to drive uptown under the waving flags l that had been strung across Market street in his honor.
 A long hour was the Peru detained in the stream awaiting the salute that never came from the guns on Black Point; then when the news reached the steamer that the flags were flying in honor of the Golden Jubilee the anchor of the Peru was raised, and a start was made for the Mail dock.
 When the steamer got alongside the wharf Lieutenant Noble, aid-de-camp to General Shafter, went aboard and proffered his services, and that was the nearest approach to military escort the President of Hawaii got. The only carriage to met him was one sent down by the proprietor of the Occidental Ho- tel, and into it Mir Dole got hurriedly and was driven away. Once at the ho tel the President was as accessible as the humblest citizen. Though weary | from the journey and crowded with work which he had laid out for the day. he granted representatives of the press an interview. To every question he | gave a clear and courteous answer, saying that there was nothing to hide. and that there was no secret mean ing to his visit.
 Tt was the sense of the officers of the Government" said the Chief Executive of Hawaii, that I make a visit to the Chief Executive of this country for the purpose of discussing with him va rious phases of the proposed treaty with Hawaii. I do not come here as a special pleader for annexation, nor shall I appear before any Congressional committees. It would not be very proper thing for me to do. The pro- posed treaty has been ratified by my Government. If it is finally ratified by the United States Senate In the pres ent shape, or with immaterial amend ments, there are a great many little questions that will have to be settled. Something will have to be arranged as regards the form of government that
 will be maintained during the period
 between the ratification of the treaty
 by this Government and the period
 when Hawaii will finally be turned over
 to the United States. For example. all
 suits would have to run in the name
 of the United States. It would have to
 be arranged in detail what would be

BIG COTTON CROP.

There IS no denying the fact that the
biggest cotton crop ever raised in this
section has been raised this year.
Whether it will all be picked and mar
keteG, We cannot say. Not only in
Cobb county, but in counties adjoining,
people tell us that the fields are white
as snow with the feecy staple We
met Well-knoWn and reliable drum
mer in Marietta Monday, and he told
us that while in Gainesville last week
y banker there told him that Mr.. John
Trotter, who lives on Mr.. Charley Par
rott's land, had already gathered and
sold seventy bales from seventy five
acres, and the prospect is he will get
ninety bales As Il sample of how it is
in Carroll county the same drummer
told us that Mr.. Kenney, at Temple,
Ga, had gathered eight bales from four
acres. Mr. John Rusk, who lives near
Woodstock, in Cherokee county, will
get ten bales off of seven acres. In
Cobb county Mr.. Jack Reeves has gath
cred nine bales from eight acres, and
Mr. W. F. Clay four bales from three
acres, and so on all over the county.
The cotton fields look now as if they
had never been picked over.

ATTEMPT TO WRECK A TRAIN.

Some two weeks ago, near AcWorth
heavy telegraph poles were placed on
the track of the w. q. A. Il. r., at
night, and freight train came along
and pushed them off without wrecking
the train Investigation as to the par
ties who did this felonious act was be-
gun, and eliminated in the arrest of
three men in the vicinity Of the
crime-Thomson Nann, Luke Nann
Sexton Cantrell, all white. Deputy
Sheriffs Davenport and Brewer and
Constabes Morris and Barrett made
the arrests. A preliminary trial was
had here on last Saturday Col. ID. w.
Blair was attorney for the prosecution,
and Motley q Griffin for the defend
ants. The case was held before Judge
Alexander Mr. II. 5. House, of near
Acworth, was very impor tant witness,
and testified to a confession made to
him by Thomson Nann as to the guilt
Of the three men arrested. He also
learned from Thomson Nann that
second attempt to wreck passenger
train was in contemplation and prepa-
ration Il crow bar had been made and
hid in hollow tree by which, Oh GER

rail removed, and the passenger train
with all its precious lives were to be
sent in one mass of ruin, wreckage and
death down an embankment The
crowbar was found after the arrest by
Mr.. House in the hollow tree. The
men tried to set up an alibi, but Judge
Alexander bound them over in bond
of 500 each, and they went back to
Jail
