THE DREYFUS CASE.
Court of Cessation Will Decide in Fa-
 vor of Revision.

Paris, October 19.-It is believed that the court of cessation will take up the -Dreyfus case next week and the general impression is that the decision will be in favor of re- vision The court has obtained documents concerning Comte Esterhazy, late Lieuten- t-Colonel Henry, and Mime. Pais and their mutual relations. It will demand all the documents bearing upon the case and call witnesses, including Leutenant-Colonel Picquarte.
 M. Cavaignac, the former minister of war, is credited with the intention when parlla- ment reassembles of calling on the govern- ment to take the question of Dreyfus re- vision out of the hands of cessation, but it is believed that no precedent exists for such interference.
 The Soir says: 'M. Faure will send a message to the chamber of deputies regard- ing the Dreyfus case when parliament re- assemblies, and it is predicted by some that he will appeal for a reconciliation of the factions now disturbing the country's tran- Quility,o

three millions of the colonial period were long affected, though unconscious of it, by that stream of tendencies which found It's final result in the separation of the colo nies from the mother land.
 "An Englishman is quoted as saying: In 1850 the United States of America will have a population of 25O,OOO,O00 and will be able to crush any people of the earth, except, perhaps the Slavs.' In his estimate of our future power he misconceived the use or it. It is not our mission to crush any peo- pie. It is our mission to enlarge, to l1b- crate, to set free. The foundation stone upon which this great social and political structure rests is The right of the indvid- ual man. No king, no potentate, can rob him of this fundamental distin- gushing principle of American citizenship.
 Surely the future is big with destiny for us. Having learned the value of freedom, we can wisely preserve it to ourselves and spread its blessings abroad over other lands beyond the seas. In patience, courage and with the highest sense of responsibility to God and man, the sublime task must be assumed. Win we succeed2 Yes. If over the word liberty we write the word law. If over the word country we write the word justice"

NO NEWS RECEIVED
By Authorities Regarding Naval En-

Washington October 19.-As far as could be learned no informat ton regarding the re- ported naval engagement has been received at the navy department, nor has General Otis, commanding the United States troops at Manila, made any reference to it in any communication he may have made to the war department. The dispatches created considerable interest in Washington. Re- gently the newspapers stated that Admiral Dewey had dispatched one or two of his ships to another portion of the Philippine group on a mission of some importance, and the suggestion is made unoficially that it may have bee nthese vessels which en- gagged in combat with the insurgents.

 And yet there were still those among us who believed your course was polite but insincere, and those among you who as- stunned that our professed attitude was sen- timental and unreal.
 Some Doubters Left ,s ,
 If from out the caldron of conflict there arose this doubt, only from the crucible of war could come the answer. And, thank God, that answer has been made in the record of the war, the peaceful termination of which we celebrate tonight. Read it in every page of its history; read it in the ob- ligation of party and sectional lines in the congressional action which called the na- tion to arms in the defense of prostrate liberty, and for the extension of the sphere of human freedom; read it in the conduct of the distinguished federal soldier who, as the chief executive of this great republic, and whose appointments in the first com missions issued after war had been declared made manifest the sincerity of his oft re- peated utterances of complete sectional re- conciliation and the elimination of section al lines in the affairs of government. Diff fering with him, as I do, on party issues, utterly at variance with the views of his party O neconomic problems, I sanction with all my heart the obligation that rests on every patriotic citizen to make party second to country, and in the measure that he has been actuated by this broad and patriotic policy he will receive the plaudits of the whole people.
