room were spread on the table the
presents. consisting Of a beautiful
China dinner set of 112 pieces, a glass

ton of NJ. Godefrey Cavaignac. of the

turned to Paris. this morning, and con-
ferred with M. Delcasse. minister for

den.
The cabinet will meet, tomorrow, ex-
pressly to deal with a request from
NINE. Dreyfus for revision Of the
proceedings of the court martial that
condemned her husband.
AS the cabinet is now practically
unanimous in favor of revision, the
outcome of the meeting is almost a
foregone conclusion.
1t is not thought that NJ. Cavaignac's
retirement will involve the resignation
of other members.
According to the lie Soire NJ. Faure
who received M. Cavaignas, today.
strongly urged him to withdraw his
resignation.
The paper also asserts that at the

CAMP wIkoFF
Continued from page ~

THAT campaign of Santiago will be
memorable in the military history OF
the world. 1t was a tremendous un-
dertaking to begin campaign in a
tropical country during the rainy sea-
son against position SO strong and 81
we'll defended as was Santiago.
That success was achieved so soon
and with loss comparatively small is
due to the energy and ability of Gen.
Shafter and his commanding officers
and to the dash. bravery and splendid
fighting quality of the men of Gen
Skaters corps.
II talked yesterday with Gen. Shat
ter and he discussed some of the OBJ
stacles which had to be overcome in
the Santiago campaign. He is suffer-
ing from the effects of the campaign
himself and is really.a sick man. He
said that when he arrived in Cuba and
realized the conditions that confronted
him and his men, he knew that the
campaign must be one of days rather
than weeks and months.
1T is evident that had Gen. Shafter
waited until his army supplies could
have been sent forward with ordinary
elaboration, the expedition against
Santiago would have failed utterly. In
a measure, it was his disregard of mill
tary cunventionalities that enabled
him to carry the campaign to a bril-
liantly successful issue.
During all the time troops were ly-
ing in the trenches before Santiago,
despite The immediate difficulties ex-
perienced in getting supplies to the
front, the men suffered very little from
a lack of provisions. 1t is particularly
noticeable that the men who were ac-
tually engaged in the Santiago cam
paign are not complaining of their
treatment"

RIVER IMPROVEMENT.

perhaps, not been given the attention
and treatment their commercial impor-
tance demands. Their use as CONNER
cial highways, as a result, has become
greatly impaired The improvement
of these navigable streams, in the inter-
est of cheapened transportation, be-
comes more urgent as the price of farm
products diminish in value. Legisla-
tive enactment, or constitutional
amendment, VIII not so certainly reg

mercial highways forever will, if kept
available for transportation. Not
alone TO the people residing in proxi-
nifty, or owning the lands adjacent
thereto, but to the people of our whole
State, does the problem of river i'm
provement appeal for wisdom in treat
ment and solution.
Experience has demonstrated, beyond
question, that improved alignment and
trained currents may be made to dis

the bottom Of channels that relief from

nearly even depth of water throughout
