chief of the intelligence department of the

WHY GERMANY WON'T SPEAK.
II Is Not TO Her Interest TO Have
the Dreyfus Affair
Cleared In.

LONDON, Sept. 3-M. De Blowitz, the
Paris correspondent of the Times. tele-
graphs that he has obtained the views OF
distinguished German" on the Dreyfus
situation. This individual admitted that
Germany, by speaking out, could, per-
haps clear up the Dreyfus affair."" but he
added that the interests of the nation are
superior to those of any man, and, II Ger
many were listened to. General De Bois-
deffre could not remain an hour at the
head of the staff, whereas, Germans ought

possible"
NJ. De Blowifz says:
General De Boisdeffre's shortcomings are
Just as fully understood here in France.
There was even an idea of sending him as
French ambassador to st. Petersburg a
post he desired. but the incident of the
Zola trial made his retention as chief of
staf imperative. Now. however the Ger
mans no longer have motive 10 keep 81

Times correspondent says the work was
so cleverly done as to deceive Colonel
Schwartzkoppen himself. who, even when
he became aware OF It, was unable to de-
nounce it, owing TO the Introduction of
certain names.
NJ. De Blowitz arrives at this conclusion:
'1t is absolutely impossible that Leuten-
ant Colonel Henry should have attained
the necessary professional dexierity. The
actual forger, therefore, must be sought
elsewhere, though 1t is likely enough that
Henry concocted the phrases. Discovery
would not be difficult and would elicit the
whole truth"

FOR RoBBlNe OCEAN MAILS.
Officers of the Atlantic Liner BrItnn-
mic ON Trial in "a Lon

LONDON. Sept. 2.-J. w. Jago. chief Of
annie, who was arrested on board the Cum
ard line steamer Lucania On her arrival at
Queenstown on August T. charged with
being concerned in the robbery of trans

officer of the Britannia who is charged
with the theft from the mails of bonds,
coupons, diamonds etc, who arrived in
custody at Queenstown on board the Ger
manic from New York on Wednesday last,
were brought up for examination at The
Bow street police court to-day.
Among the letters stolen, IL was said in
court, was one containing forty United
states bond coupons and another contain
ing $500 In greenbacks.
Counsel for the British postoffice made
a statement saying Jago was undoubtedly
planned that 1t was arranged that Kynaston
should receive the maibags at Queens
town and place certain of the sacks, from
London, so that they might be easily
reached. The same night kynaston visit
ed the mailroom and brought the maiibags
he repeated this performance, but both
the bags were found TO contain matter
which was useless to the prisoners. On the
third night. registered letter bag was
secured. Two days before the arrival of
the Britannia at New York, Jago gave
but Kynaston was arrested as a result of
the suspicious of the cashier of the bank
at which he presented them, and Jago fled
after endeavOring to dispose of quantity
of stolen property by posting it to rela-
tives and friends.
Counsel added that most of the above
facts were derived from confession made
by KynaSton.

MYSTERY is CLEARING.
Police Have Found Where the Hand
kerchief Sent to Mrs. Dunning
Was Bought,

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 2.-The mystery
of the cheap little handkerchief which was
inclosed in the box of poisoned candy sent
to Mrs. John p. Dunning at Dover Del,
and intended for Baby DuDning, has been
partially cleared. Chief of Police Lees and
his detectives have been working on the
mystery of the handkerchief ever since
they took hold of the case; they have
been trying to ascertain why it was sent,
unless 1t was sent as blind. and they
have been trying to locate the purchasing
place. They have solved the latter prob
lem to their own satisfaction, but whether
the fancy bordered piece of linen was pur-
chased by Mrs. Botkin they will not state
They have traced the purchasing place of
the handkerchief to the City of Paris dry
goods store, where there are dozens more
Just like It. all marked exactly like the one
sent for Mrs. Dunning's little daughter.
The clerks in the store know Mrs. Botkin,
as she was a frequent buyer at the estab-
lishment, but whether the handkerchief
salesman will prove a good witness for the
prosecution Chief Lees will not state.
The police have positively ascertafned
that the box in which the poisoned candy
was mailed was purchased from George
Haas, of this city. The box was made by
Jones &, Co., of Philadelphia. and Haas Is
the only man on the coast using their
boxes. Mr.. Haas has fully Identified the
box placed in evidence, but neither ne nor
his clerks can say to whom 1t was sold.

WISCONSIN POPS ARE SORE.
VIII Fight the Democrats Just a
They VIII the Republicans
This Year.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, Sept. 2.-The fall
ure of the Democratic state convention to
fuse with the Populists on a state ticket
will result in the Populist state ticket, as
nominated, being placed on the official
ticket with the other state tickets. All
hopes for united action between these two
parties are now shattered.
In an Interview to-day, Robert Schilling.
chairman of the Populist state central
committee. announced that no agreement
by which the Populist ticket would be
withdrawn could or would be made, and
that the Populists will fight the Democrats
Just as they will fight the Republicans.
He also stated that the action of the DEM
ocratic convention would prevent all pos
sibility of fusion on the county ticket
as was the case in the spring when the
Democrats. with fusion, carried the city
by a large majority.
The language of the Democratic plat
form in reference to the Chicago platform
is looked upon as being mild, and made to
suit a number of gold Democrats who
were in the convention. By this action and
the fact that a number of the delegates
leaned toward the gold standard, the party
expects to gather in a large number of
the deserters Of two years ago, whom
they would fail to capture had the con-
vention fused with the Peoples party. 1t
IL looked upon as long step toward the
bringing about of harmony in the Demo-
cratic party, at least as far as the state IL
concerned,

mails which are known 10 be in close touch
with the army now declare that the feel
Ing of military men is hot for a revision
Of the court-martial, and that many prom
inent officers insist that IT is the honor of
The army Itself which necessitates such re-
vision.
General de Boisdeffre, who threatened TO
resign with the whole general staff of the
army IL Zola was acquitted. has now, by
his resignation, admitted that he was the
blind dupe of a forger. This inspires grave
anxiety as to whether or not the present
general staff has been duped in other mat
ters-that Of rational defense for instance.
Henry Rochefort, who still champions the
validity of Dreyfus' condemnation, is au-
thority for the statement that all the Of
fees of tho French general staff employed
in Paris have applied to be relieved of
their present duties, and Gent back to their
respective regiments.

STORM DAMAGE IMMENSE.
News just Coming In of the Hurri-
cane Which Swept the Geor-
gin COnsf.

SAVANNAH. GA, Sept. while sa-
vannah suffered heavily from the storm
which swept over this section of the coast
Wednesday morning, the damage on the
| coast islands and interior as far as the
storm reached is probably greater.
The flooded condition of the country rem
ders communication difficult. In many sec
tions 1t is entirely cut off and no news
has been received to indicate what the
conditions are.
The first news from the Carolina sea ISL
ands. which were the scene of the great
tidal storm of 1888, in which thousands of
persons perished, was received to-day.
While the storm was nothing like that Of
five years ago, the loss Is heavy. The
beaches north OF Tybee are lined with
wrecks of small craft, and at Bluffton and
the other settlements, nearly all the houses
were unroofed and many were destroyed.
The Norwegian bark Ragna. which went
ashore on Gaskin bank, is a total wreck
to-day. The captain and crew were saved.
The bark Noe. in attempting to rescue the
crew OF which Lieutenant Morgan and one
of his companions lost their lives, has
about disappeared. Small steamers have
patrolled Catalogue sound all day search
ing for the bodies of the heroic rescuers,
but they have not been recovered.
The loss TO the rice crop on the Savan-
nah river alone Is estimated at S200,tJ0 to
