DRIVING OUT AMERICANS.
Gen. Gomez Has No Use For Them In His
Army.

Santiago de Cuba November 13.-Capt
Warren, an American who has been with
General Maxine Gomez for nearly two
years, has arrived here.
According to his statement, General
Gomez will no longer have Americans
about him and is getting rid of them as
fast as possible. He takes the same course
10 the case of Cubans suspected of favor
ing annexation to the United States. The
result is that some of the best men who
were long attached to his Immediate staff
are not now with him. :
1t will be difficult Captain Warren be-
lieves, to get the majority of the insur-
gents to disband. His idea is that when
the American authorities get control OF
the other portions of the island. they
should give out no ra ions and punish
severely all thefts OF cattle and produce.
He thinks, too, that there may be some
trouble with the insurgents because OF
thsir insisting on the right of court
martialing delinquents among themselves.
There is very little serious sickness
among the troops here. Everybody is i'm
proving with the cooler weather.

PUTS A BURGLAR TO FLIGHT.

Bath. NoYem ber 12-Two of the bold
est attempts at burglary that have been
committed in this city for years occurred
this morning when the residences of
Hon. Arthur Sewall and his son Will
liam D. Sewail, on Washington street.
were entered. The house of Hon. Arthur
Sewau was ransacked, but the burglars
took nothing and did not awaken the
inmates. At William Sewall's, Mrs.
Sewall was aroused. She went into tne
hall there she saw a man croucnlng.
Mrs Sewall turned on the electric llghts.
The man ran down stairs and escaped.
Entrance was effected at both houses by
forcing windows. 1t is thought the thief
was looking for money, as the silver was
not disturbed.

WANT THEIR PAY.
Spanish onicers and Men Refuse to Go
Home Unless They Get 1t.

Washington, November 13.-In connec-
tion with the department. of the eighth
cavalry for Cuba an interesting bit OF in
formation has reached tho war depart
ment. Arrangements have been made by
the Spanish authorities to send back to
Spain the Spanish troops numbering $500
men upon the arrival of the American
garrison. 1t was expected that they
would sail next Tuesday or Wednesday,
out an unexpected obstacle has arisen
among the men themselves. They are on
the verge OF mutiny, openly declaring
that they will not return to Spain until
they have received their pay, now far In
arrears, for service in Cuba. The anutiny
extends not alone to the enlisted men,
out to their officers and is directed against
the executive officials of the Madrid gov
srnment on the island. Some OF the men
have not been paid for nearly year ana
90 ali of them several months pay is due.
The Spanish authorities express no fear
of their ability to solve the problem pre-
ssnted, but how they will solve it. If ths
men. backed by their officers. absolutely
refuse to return home without their pay
is not clear.

DREYRUS MAY BE DEAD.
Startling Reports To That Effect
From Paris.
NO OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION OF
THE STORY,

Dark Rumors Wont Down Despite Officia
Assurances-Madame Dreyfus Refused
Permission to Communicate With Hel
Husband or to Send Him Any Comforts
Paris. November 13.-It is reported her,
tonight that Dreyfus is dead. The rumol
is understood to be based nIon d
mysterious telegram received from Col.
mar, capital of Upper Alsace. signed BY
an unknown correspondent.
So far as can be ascertained tElers is NJ
official confirmation Of the report.
The father in law of Dreyfus discredit.
1t He says he has excellent accounts
which he received from the colonial Office
quite recently as TO the prisoners health,
Despite these assurances there are darl
rumors afioat. In view of the curious
manner In which the letter from Dreyfus
declaring that he had abandoned al. hope
was conveyed to Mime. Dreyfus on Friday
many people think he is dead.
A despatch from Paris on Friday said
that Nine. Dreyfus had applied that day
at the office of the Minister of colonies fol
permission to send her husband some
warm clothing for his return home. The
request was refused, on the ground thai
the government would do whatever was
necessary.
At the same time, according to tie
despatch, the authorities read her letter
from her husband to the effect that.
naying for five months addressed appeals
for revision to General De Boisefer ire
cently chief of staff of the French army),
without getting any reply. and being
weary and exhausted by his useless ap'
peals, be would write no more to his
fnpaiiy or to anybody. He described him
self as ill and dying ana bsqueathed &c
the Generosity OF my country the care OF
re-habilitating my memory.
It appears that Mime. Dreyflls then
asked permission to telegraph her hus-
Dand the decision of the court OF cessation.
This request also was refused. Then,
through friend, she appealed to PTesi-
dent Faure, but with no better result;
he despatch said her counsel would
bring the whole matter Before the court
of assation.
Paris, November 13.-CaFeful inquiries
made at Colmar this evening, show that
nothing is known there as to the death OF
Dreyfus. 1t is now believed that the tele-
gram was hoax.

PIPE DREAM OF PARIS PAPER.


Tells of ar Inte, national Syndicate Formed
to Buy Philippines.
Paris, November 14.-The Gaulois this
morning says:
"The acquisition of the Philippines for
25 years by an international Syndicate
rom whichever power may eventually
acquire is a rumor based on facts ol
which the Gaulois will tomorrow (Mon-
day. give details"
Following this lead the Gaulois and
other Paris papers will tomorrow an
nounce the scheme somewhat on these
lines:
A syndicate representing $400, 900, 600
capital proposes to take over the COM
mercial resources and advantages of the
Philippines for term of 20 years, paying
to the dominant power therein $i25.0 :
900 for this privilege. Under the alleged
terms of this scheme, the dominant
power would administer the political and
military government of the islands at its
own expense, under the apportionment
named, while the syndicate would colleut
all customs and other revenues for the
term specified.
The scheme involves giving Spain
$l75, 600. 900 to satisfy any real or imagi-
nary claim she may make as to the terri
tory. This feature is said to be based on
the assumption that the United States
will be the dominant power

Madrid, November IL. .-El impartial
says the government has forwarded in

dent of the Spanish peace co mmission at
Paris and that Mondays conference may
be the last or the last but one 'unless the

much.

AN AGREEMENT IMPOSSIBLE.
snanish Peace Commissioners win Never
Agree To Treaty Americans Would
sign.
Paris, November 13. Among on lockers
here the impression exists, though it is
not the result of any official statement.
that the Spanish peace commissioners
will not consent to treaty which the
American commissioners could sign.
1t seems almost possible also that in the
pitiable pressure to which they are sub
Jected between their large creditors, who
ara ON the spot watching them and the
stern attitude of the United States, the
Spaniards may abandon their struggle
and leave the two forces to confront each
other. 1t will not be decloed until to-
morrow morning wheathe the next joint
session is to occur tomorrow or on Tues
lay. The Spaniards, it has been arranged,
will inform the Americans tomorrow
morning whether they need the day to
prepare their next memorandum. If they
want Monday, the meeting will take
place on Tuesday.
Under the rules of procedure adopted by
gne conference, 1t Is understood that the
deliberations may not be unexpectedly
concluded by either side.
Ihs statement is printed here this eve
ming that the last memorandum from
The Americans is regarded by the Span
iards as virtual ultimatum, but, as
matter Of fact, the Americans have not
presen ted an ultimatum, save as their
treatment of the SUBJECTS in hand may be
unanSWerable.
If treaty Is to result here. it may fair
ly be expected within three weeks, al
though it is not true-as reported from
The United States touay-that the Ameri-
cans have instructions embodying time
limit for the conclusion of the conference.
