PORTO RICANS IN COUNCIL.
Considering Recommendations for the
Use of Special Commissioners to
Visit Washington.

San Juan de Porto Rico, Oct. 31.-
The principal theater of the city was
taxed to its utmost capacity yesterday
afternoon on the occasion of public
meeting of delegates from the chief
towns of the island to consider and
draft recommendation regarding the
necessities of the island for the use of
the special commissioners, who will be
selected later to represent Porto Rico
at Washington when the time comes
for settling the administration sys-
TEN.
The assembly was fairly representa-
tive, and although the proceedings
gave undue prominence to unimpor-
tant details. there was abundant evil
dence of intelligent reflection on the
part of the delegates and of determi-
nation not to tolerate partisan politics
at this crisis in the islands affairs.
Carefully prepared reportswere sub
mitted by the political, social and eco
nomical committees,
The meeting received with enthusi-
asm the resolutions demanding terri
toral rights, tee cessation of the pres
ent military rule and the installation
of regular civil government.
Other resolutions were adopted ask
ing an eight-hour day for the laboring
man, and severely denouncing the
present corrupt system of registering
deeds of lands.

PARIS is QUIET.


Paris, Oct. 30-Nowhere is there
any sign of agitation to-day. The city
is quiet. The anti-Semite papers vain
ly endeavor, by abusing the judges of
the court of cessation, to lash the pub
lie into hostile demonstration, but
the people seem rather inclined to re-
sent the cuIpability or imbecility of
the officers of the general staff who al
lowed themselves to become the prey
of INSCRIPTIONS iorgers. This refers
especially to the officers deputed TO
investigate the Dreyfus affair. 1t is
believed even now that important
facts are being concealed in order to
shield the headquarters staff.
Most of the Paris papers approve
the decision of the court of cessation,
although the GauIois and the Eclair
declare that even now revision is by
no means certain.
The Liberte bows TO the decision,
but does not think it will end the agi-
tation.
The Figaro announces that Cont,
Esterhazy has been deprived OF his
membership in the Legion of Honor.
F. The Dreyfus decision seems to have
delayed IA solution of the cabinet
crisis.
NJ. De Freycinet is again hesitating
to accept the portfolio of minister of
war on the ground that, in view of the
role the l'rotestants have played in
the Dreyfus case, it would be mad
yisabe for two Protostants, himself
and NJ Ribot, to hold the portfolios of
war and justice.

IN The CITY OF DAVID.
Their German Imperial Ma jesties Royalty
Received by Church and People OF
Historic Jerusalem.

Jerusalem, Oct. 3l.-The approach
of their German imperial majesties to
the city was made through trumphal
arches and banners, garlands and ever
growing crowds, displaying in every
way their enthusiasm and delight.
The formal entry through the Jaifa
gate was heralded by the roar of guns
at the citadel, where the Turkish band
played the German anthem.
From the Tower of David, Emperor
William and Empress Augusta Vic

cheering, to the church of the Holy
Sepulchre, where they were received
by the Catholic, Greek and Armenian
clergy. whose patriarchs presented adj
dresses euogizing the devotion OF EN-
peror William, who has since conferred
decorations on the patriarchs.
Their maiesties then proceeded to
the German Evangelical church, where
the pastor presented an address,

If his condition becomes more serious,

THE CASE OF CAPT. DREYFUS.
The Court Of Cessation Obtains the Most
Absolute Control Over the Cele-
brated Case.

Paris, Oct. 31.-By Saturdays deci-
sion the court of cessation obtains
the most absolute control over the
Dreyius case. 1t can demand and eX-
anime any documents whatever, in
Guiding the dosSier, of any case bear
ing upon the Dreyfus matter, and can
examine under oath any witness, how
ever high his position.
In short, if the court makes a sin
cere use of its powers, the truth will
have much better chance of being
discovered than would have been the
case had it merely ordered revision be-
fore another court-martial, whose
members might have been actuated by
a desire to shield the general staff.
Having concluded It's inquiry. it can
present Il new dossier to either civil
or military court for the final dcci-
sion. Its proceedings will not be pub
lie, and there can, therefore, be no OBJ
Jectlon to Il communication to it of
the alleged secret dossier, if this is
still in existence, while the numerous
generals who have expressed their be-
lief i'll the guilt of Dreyfus will now
be called upon to explain the grounds
of their convictions.
Although the liberation Cf Dreyfus
has not been ordered the court can or
der him brought back to France at
any moment, and will probably do 50

court refrained from ordering his re-
lease on Saturday because it would

Especial Camp Meade (Pa.) letter.
The war is over. Spanish bullets
have spent their force; but the
patriot dead of this war have
not yet been numbered The enormous
volunteer army is still in the service,
and though many have been fur
loughed over 100000 men are still in

together without these invaluable in
struments. AT this hospital almost all
the patients were typhoids. Think of
treating that disease, which perhaps
more than any other demands a con-
slant gauging of the temperature of
the blood, without the aid of ther-
mOmeter
When was at this same camp one OF
the surgeons admitted to the that hos

animation. These men were then sup
posed to attend to the wants of the
sick. The surgeon also admitted that

his immediate command five were so
ignorant that they had to be taught
how to read thermometer.
For that matter the surgeons in
charge are frequently none too COM
petent. 1t is claimed that veterinary
surgeons have been assigned to take
charge OF hundreds Of typhoid pa
tients, and just now great outcry has
arisen over the appointment of a head
physician at one of the large camps,

geon some one is said to have discoy-
cred. In fact, a brief conversation with
many OF the physicians now at the hos
pitfalls will convince anyone of their
limited qualifications, although, on
the other hand, some of the best men
in the profession have accepted minor
| positions and ure hard at work in de-
tached branch hospitals.
A source Of criticism at the present
time is the fact that by the movements
of troops from camp TO camp it was
found necessary to leave many who
became tco sick TO move at branch
hospitals hastily constructed along
the road. There are such tents scat
tered all through the country from
Tampa to New York. While the pa
tents at regmental hospitals were
generaIIy able to move with their
regiments some of those at the division
hospitals had to remain behind. Thus
at Camp Alger, where 10000 troops
went away to various places, 30 pa
tients, in charge Of few surgeons and
attendants, had to be left way out in
the woods between Falls Church and
Wedderhurn Va. At Bristoe and
other places few sick men remained
behind IN desolate country.
1t has been suggested that all these
hospitals be consolidated at the gem
eral hospitals, such as those at For.

The Disease Didn't Develop Until His Re-
turn Home.
Col. Waring was apparently well
| when he left Havana, and he felt only
| slightly i'll during the latter part OF

was suffering from yellow fever.
Col. Waring was Immediately iso-
