three months ago, when departures or
troops were of almost weekly occurrence.
The official intelligence had already been
given out that no more soldiers would go
to the Philippines and the work Of dis
banding the regiments is even now pro
crossing, but will be brought to a halt as
soon as ofYicial instructions are received.
The Associated Press bulletins announc

the transportation Of the troops were in

the day. Their bands played joyous airs
and there was general feeling of mirth IN
evidence all day. The other regiments
were almost as badly affected. The en-
thusiasm spread even to the officers. and
official dignity was relaxed during the
first outbreaks, but later in the day quiet
was restored, sbut still there Is buzE of
excitement in the lucky camps. Gen. Mil

= WASHINGTON. Sept. 1s.-Th@ War De-
partment this afternoon amended the Or
ders relative to the dispatch of reinforce
ments to the Philippines so as to increase
the number by 1851 privates and 30 officers.
These are made up Of four companies OF
the Twenty-third infantry and recruits for

and First Colorado. These troops made up
the expedition under General King, which

ais department that the returning trans
ports, which have been to Manila on one
trip. will be used to take the troops now

pected to arrive In day or two. Other
steamers are on their way and will be sent

steamers will be sufficient for the trans
pprtation Of troops and supplies. 1t Is be-
lieved that less time will be consumed by

Associated Press Special Wire.

Associated Press Special Wire.
PARIS, Sept. 19.-The Due d'Orleans las
issued manifesto denouncing the Drey
fusites. The manifesto begins thus:
"At last the promoters of the odious plot
against the honor and security of the
fatheriand have thrown off their mask.
Intimidated by them, the ministers have
lowered themselves so far as to become
their accomplices."
The due d'Orleans accuses the m. nis+vy
of seeking a revision of the Dreyfuc pro.
ceedings while convinced that Dreyfus wcs
guilty, under a pretext of calming the
public, for their own profit. He declares
that the prospect makes his heart quiz
er," and he concludes his manifesto in
these words:
"Frenchmen, we are the masters Of our
own country. Your servants, subject TO
pernicious power, presume upon the will
| to which they submit under pret .xt Of
proving the innocence Of a man whom the
military tribunals have condemned as
traitor. 1t Is the army they are trying to
destroy, and France they are striving to
ruin.
"Frenchmen, we will not allow III"
An ominous Quiet
NEW YORK. Sept. ia dispatch to the
World from Paris says:
Jules Perier, leading member Of the
French bar, explains the present legal
status of the Dreyfus case as follows:
"Judicially. the Ministerial decision to
refer the case to an examining commission
Of three decides nothing except the Drey-
fus status in the light Of recent events.
The commissions finding will determine
whether there shall be a revision or not.
"The decision is important politically
only in that 1t reveals and approves TIE
sentiment of the country in favor Of re-
vision"
Paris Is quiet outwardly. There seems
to be a sense of relief because revision
has virtually been determined on. But
there Is a great commotion among the
chiefs Of the army. They undoubtedly
have the disposition, II not the courage.
to try to prevent a revision at the eleventh
hour by a military coup d'etat.
NJ Cavaignac, who resigned lately as
Minister of War, and who has cast his lot
unre.ervedly with the army, Is pointed to
as a possible dictator, but public senti-
ment will be most effective bar against
such designs. 1t has veered around COM
pletely in favor of revision and justice.
which everywhere is recognized now ex-
cept by a couple Of anti-Dreyfus organs.
Esterhazy's promised confession Is
awaited with the keenest curiosity. though
no one will believe a word he says unless
