IS the absorbing question of the hour in

The question as to the guilt or limo
cence of the officer is similar to the sill
yer question in America some years ago, -
said Mr.. How; evidence and arguments
avail nothing. Politics take the place
Of evidence and sentiment of arguments.
The status of the case in Paris is very
different from what is learned from the
reports Of the trial which reach the
United States.
THE great majority of the people of
Paris say Dreyfus has been found guilty
by seven of the best men in France. and
they are satisfied by the decision of
these men. The feeling against the Off
Ger is intense, and of the Paris newspa-
pers but three are Favorable to him, and
the statement is openly made that these
have been subsidized. The Dreyfus case
has never been properly reported in any
paper, 80 that we are at a disadvantage
in attempting to comprehend it. The
people are weary of the present regime.

ownership of railroads as the sole solu-
tion of one of the greatest problems
which now yeX the public mind.
Your conventions have, believe, with
one exception, been held in the city
of Washington. Appropriate. as for
many reasons that city is for your gath
ering and pleasant as it is for any as.
semblage, YOU are to be congratulated
that for this occasion you have selected
the capital of the Centennial State, the
centre of the wild and breezy west.
Here the air is purer. You are at a
higher elevation and can take a broader
and more comprehensive view of men
and affairs. 1t would look as if you were
at the very centre and hub of the uni
verse, for as Proctor Knott said of the
zenith city of the unsalted seas the
sky fits down at the same distance all
around us. At any rate you are at the
centre of the great country which
stretches from the Mississippi to the
pacific--a section which embraces two
thirds of this Union, though many men
east of the Mississippi have never sus-
pected it. Political parties are so little
alive to it that all our Presidents save
one have come from the one-third OF
the Union that lies east of the Mississip.
, nj. and that one lived on the very bank
of the river at Baton Rouge. Two OF
the three great parties in 1896 combined
in the nomination of candidate from
west of the great river. and the proba
bilites are that he will be nominated
again next year.
The mountain barriers which once di
vided this immediate section from the
Golden Slope of the Pacific are like

A LESSON FROM ROME.

the Empires commerce: over then

Washington, Jan. 26.-The fight for
the post of librarian of congress ac-
lively began yesterday, two candidates
being pressed on the presidents at
tention. Senator-elect McComas of
Maryland presented George Alfred
Townsend, while Senator Plat of New
York spoke in behalf of Thomas G..
Alyord, another newspaper man and
Librarian Youngs chief assistant. The
other candidates are H. B. F. McF'ar-
land of this city and Representative
Barrows of Massachusetts.
A superintendent of the next census
is also to be chosen shortly and the
president has had a number of aspir-
ants called to his attention in connec-
ton with the position. The census
bill is now pending in congress and no
appointment can be made until it be-
comes a law, but in view Of the urgent
need for an early organization of the
force for the taking of the next census,
it is believed a superintendent will be
appointed very shortly after the bill
is signed by the president. John Hyde,
statistican of the department Of agri-
culture, by reason Of his fine record in
special work in previous censuses and
his equipment for the office as the re-
suit Of years of work in statistical
fields, is a strong candidate for this
Office and o. p Austin, former news
paper writer and now chief Of the
bureau of statistics, is also being urged
for the place. 1t is the general i'm
preston, however, that eX-Secretary
of State Henry Casson Of Wisconsin
stands the best show OF receiving the
appointment.

NEW BOTKIN TRIAL.
Attorneys of Convicted Woman Argue
California Lacks Jurisdiction.

San Francisco, Jan. 26.-Attorneys
for Mrs. Cordelia Botkin, convicted of
the murder of Mrs. John P. Dunning of
Dover, Del, by sending her poisoned
candy through the mails, and recon-
mended for life Imprisonment, ap-
peared before Judge Cook and secured
a continuation until Saturday on the
ground that Mrs. Botkin had been con-
yicted of the crime in state which
lacked jurisdiction in the matter.
When the extradition proceedings
were in progress, with the possibility
Of Mrs. Botkin being sent to Delaware
for trial, her attorneys fought strenu-
ously for the trial to be held here, ar
guing with success that the state Of
Delaware lacked jurisdiction. Satur-
day the motion for a new trial will be
argued.

TO INSPECT COTTON FIELDS.
John E. Searles to Make an Extended
Trip In South

New York, Jan. 26.-John E. Searles,
who recently resigned the presidency
of the Western National bank and also
the secretaryship of the American
Sugar company, with a view to con-
centrating his attention upon southern
interests, and especially upon the de-
velopment Of cotton handling methods,
proposes to take a months trip
through the south to stu1y the advan-
ly into every phase of cotton handling.
The American Cotton company, Of
which Mr.. Searles is president and
which is introducing the cylindrical or
rOund-bale system of packing cotton,
which is the invention of a graduate Of
the Wisconsin university, Mr.. Sven
son, has already handled about 200, 600
bales this year. With the new plants
that are under contract the company
expects to handle next season from
100000 to 100000 bales Of cotton. The
success of this system in reducing the
cost of insurance and ocean transport
tation, has been SO completely demon
strated that Mr.. Searles has deemed it's
development one Of the greatest bust
ness opportunities Of the age. Hence
his determination to concentrate his
energies in that direction. William c..
Lowering, one of the leading cotton
manufacturers Of New England, is vice
president of the company, and among
others largely interested are Mr. Stuy-
veSant Fish, president of the Illinois
Central railroad Senator Jones of Ar
kansas; ex-Secretary of the Interior
David r. Francis of ST. Louis: D. c..
Ball, formerly president of the St.
Louis exchange; and Messrs Walburn
and SWensOn of Chicago.
In his southern trip Mr.. Searles will
go through the Indian territory, where
cotton growing is becoming a leading
industry, thence through Texas, from
there to Louisiana and Mississippi, and
then into the central south, making a
careful study Of the business condi-
tons OF the whole south. He has re-
quested Richard H. Edmonds, editor of
the Manufacturers Record of Balti-
more, to accompany him on the trip,
and they will leave New York in a few
days on Mr.. Searles' private car for a
months journey. It is probable that
they will go Is far as Denver, as Mr..
Searles has some large business inter-
ests in Colorado.

lived with Snure. She showed letters
written on the letterheads of Mandel,

Snure obtained $4,000, and signed by
Snure. Most of them are dated De-

FORTUNES MADE'IN CHICAGO.
Brokers Who Failed Few Years Ago
Retrieve Their Losses.

Chicago, Jan. 26.-The speculation
here for weeks past has been frenzied,
both on the local Stock Exchange and
through brokers On the New York
Stock Exchange, Chicago operations
on the latter aggregating 10000 or
more shares a day, where they were
formerly one-tenth of this amount.
Marshall Field is credited with having
made more money on the present boom
than any other Chicagoan, with P. D.
Armour and Norman B. Ream, both
associated with Mr.. Field in the pur-
chase of the B. & o. railroad, w. T.
Baker, formerly president Of the Board
Of Trade, and the Moore Brothers, pro-
motors of the late National Biscuit
deal, not far behind. The Moore
Brothers failed in 1896 for 100000 Or
more in an attempt to corner Biscuit
and Diamond Match stock, the consa-
Quence being that the local Stock Elk
change was closed for several weeks,
The present boom has put them On
their feet again, they having practical
ly paiQ all their debts and are $4,000

Washington, Jan. 24.-The peace
treaty was not taken up in the senate
yesterday. 1he status of the treaty as
outlined by member of the committee
on foreign relations, who faVors ratifi
rcation is: The opponents claim to
have 33 or "a sure votes against the
treaty. II there is to be an extra ses-
sion the friends of the treaty say that
they may as well. take it over unreject-
ed by this session. They do not pro-
pose to. bring it to vote until they
are sure OF ratification. An extra ses-
sion, they say, will mean an extra ses-
sion of the whole congress, unless a
conditional appropriation is made to
pay Spain $20,000,000, or unless some
arrangement is made with Spain to ex-
tend the time Of the payment three
months. The United States, it is said,
would not like to make this request It
is believed that in view of the posi-
bilities OF an extra session unless the
treaty is ratified at this session the OPP
ponents will yield before adjournment
as very general desire is expressed
to avoid an extra session.
Ratification of the treaty of peace
+ now depends almost entirely on the
personal ambition of democratic lead
ers. This fact is admitted on both
sides Of the senate. The republican
managers have been forced to fold
their arms ana wait for the settlement
Of, the row among the democrats
They'are anxious to secure ratification,
but are powerless to act in the face of
Germans schemes, and the counter
plots of Bryan's followers. The SEN
ator from Maryland has undertaken to
form combination to hold up the
treaty for the express purpose of an
tagonizing Bryan's advice to ratify it..
In the meantime Dick Croker is also
directing an attack on Bryan by en-
couraging the expansion theory out
right in spite Of Bryan's opposition to
it. Croker and German have com
bined to beat Bryan-one Of them by
showing he has no influence in the
senate and the other by putting him on
record against expansion. At the
present time German unquestionably
has the treaty by the throat.
