cabinet this morning, all the ministers be-
ing present, a decision was taken In favor
of the revision of the trial OF former Cap
tain Dreyfus ard the documents in the
cause will be sent to the court of casa

The cabinet ordered the minister of JUS
tice, NJ Sar-ien. to lay before the court Of
cessation the petition of Madame DrcyfuS.

a revision OF her husbands case. The

martial and who confessed having forced
a document in the case.
The minister OF justice has announced
that he has given instructions that pro-

Pine strset crossing in Bangor 1t was

plaintiff and other passengers to allght,

car to the ground, the motorman negli-
gently and carelessly started car forward

STRANGE DolNos IN HEAVEN.
Queer Story of Superstition Related in q
Criminal Court in Bavaria.

A curious story of credulity and susper-
stition has been brought to light in a
recent trial for fraud before a Bavarian
court. About a year ago farm manager
named Kotterich, living in the little
town of Kaufbeuren, lost by death q
daughter who was cripple. Soon after,
one Of his neighbors, a Frau Wohlfarther,
the wife of a mechanic, began to commu-
nicate TO the family letters from heaven
dictated to her or left at her bedside by
or objects of value The koGterich family
had received forty eight such letters and
had complied with the requests con-
tanned in them before the police got wind
Of the swindle and interfered.
An early letter contained the news that
the little girl was married in heaven,
that she liked it there, and that she
wished the Virgin would ask for dowry
for her. The Kotterichs gladly gave1Vrau
Wohlfarther the money and asked her to
send it for them. Then they were in
formed THAT their daughter had three
children, who must be christened and
clad according to their rank. After that
the children received the gift of chapel.
but were in need OF an altar. Then
strange things happened in heaven
the twelve apostles needed new clothes. q
famine broke out and all the angels
would die of hunger unless the Kot.
terichs sent pig, the Angel Gabriel lost
his golden sword in driving back the
devils, the daughter committed a deadly
sin and it would take 1000 marks to save
her from purgatory.
The Virgin, however, made presents
from time to time. She sent a ohurn
later sofa, tor which, however, an m,
holsterer later sent bill; then She
thought Frau Kotterich needed a naov
bonnet, but as this came accompanied nv
the milliner's bill, the good woman
thought it unkind. The family had de-
livered 5000 marks ($sl ,oool in cash.
besides many objects that cost much
money, to Frau Wohlfarther for the Vir-
gin. when their medium of communities
tlon with heaven was arrested. New York

There is reason to fear that when Gen.
Merritt arrives at the Philippines he will
find Manila in possession of the rebels.
We say to fear, because there is danger
that with Manila in the hands of the reb-
els problems more difficult of solution
will confront the American commander
than if he found 1t occupied by the Span
iards. The Spaniards could be easily
driven out by American troops, and then
Gen. Merritts hands would be free to set
up such an administration as he should
deem the best. But the rebels are In a
sense our allies, and if General Merritt
finds them in possession of the city he
will have to defer to a certain extent to
their wishes, inasmuch as he could not
after they had captured the city drive
them out or entirely eliminate them from
the administration Of affairs. Much de-
ponds of course. upon the extent Of their
demands. but if, as is rumored, they in
sist on setting up government of their
own, we simply to become their protec-
tors against the Spanish, there may be
serious trouble. The great majority of
the rebels are, undoubtedly, utterly unfit
for self government, and if we should
turn the Philippines over to them to gov
ern we should practically abandon them
to anarchy. This we could not justify
ourselves to the world in doing. Having
destroyed the existing government we
shall be under obligation to see that one
no worse at least succeeds 1t. But bad
cs the Spanish government has been, a
government by the natives would in all
probability be much worse. While we hold
the Philippines we shall be under obliga.
ton to the foreign residents at least to see
that the peace is preserved, and that prop
erty and life are protected. This obligation
we can only certainly discharge by admin
isterirg the government ourselves. But
this may meet with opposition from the
natives, and as we shall be under obliga-
ton to them If they have taken Manila
before Merritt arrives, it may be very
difficult to ignore their opposition without
affrontiug them and arousing their hostili-
ty. In any event the Governor of Manila is
likely to have a very difficult task before
him, but its difficulty will be enhanced
by the capture of Manila by the rebels
before he arrives.

The Louisville Post wants the Demo-
cratic party to put Its past behind 1t and
declare for the freedom of Cuba, the 40
QUESTION of Porto Rico, ths annexation
Of Hawaii the acquisition of the Philip
pine islands, the building of the Nicara-
qua canal, navy twice the size it Is to-
day, regular army of 100, 900 men, and
the militia under the drill and discipline
OF the regular army. The reason, and the
sole reason, the Post recommends this is
that it believes the Democrats can win on
this platform, in other words that the
majority of the people are in favor of
those things. We are inclined to think
that 1t may be right. Such a programme
dazzles the imagination and appeals to
the pride. There is little comprehension
at the present time of the burdens
and responsibilities that it will place
upon the people-espeoially the masses
who will have to pay the cost and
furnish the men to carry it out.
When 1t is discussed and the people begin
to ses what this career OF glory means to
them, how much sacrifice 1t will demand
and how slight the recompense, when in
short reason and Judgment begin to assert
themselves the POSTS programme will be
looked upon, we believe, with much less.

It is to be regretted that the House con-
ferees have agreed to Mr.. Wolcott' s
amendment to the revenue bill for coin
ing the seignorage, even in modified form
The assumption underlying this amend
ment, that the silver in the treasury is
worth more than it cost, is false 1t is
worth less, many millions less. But not
only does the House give sanction to lie
by adopting this amendment, but it gives
sanction also to the claim of the silver
theorists that the free and unlimited coin
age of the white metal at the Is to 1 ratio
will raise value of the whole mass to its
coming value of 1929 an ounce. The urgent
need of money by the treasury will justi-
fy many concessions by the House, but
1t will not justify this one.
