1t Is said to Have Been Hande to sir
Alfred MfIner.

CAPE TOWN, Aug. N.-The Transvaal
government, 1T is reported here, has handed
its reply to the British agent at Pretoria, to
be forwarded to Sir Alfred Miner. British
high commissioner for South Africa n
Governor OF Cape Colony. Conflicting ac-
counts are given as to it's contents and IL
is possible that the report is premature and
that the reply will be delayed, owing to the
trouble with Portugal about the Transports
tion of ammunition, consigned to the
Transvaal, now in Delagoa bay.
Strong feeling has been aroused here by
the fact that the Transvaal is sending large
quantities of war material for distribution
among its supporters in Cape Colony and
the Orange Free State. Over seven tons
have been landed at Port Elizabeth. on
Algoa bay, and sent over Cape railways TO
Allwal for distribution.
The Cape Colony government complains
that 1t could not prevent their transport to
a friendly state and that II permission had
been refused the supplies would nave been
sent to Delagoa bay.
1t is probable that the matter will now be
referred to the imperial government.

Lost His Leg Of Mutton and Threatens
the Public.
PARIS, Aug. @.--There is no change in
the situation at the building in the Rue
de Chabrol. where NJ. Jules Guerin and
his anti-Semite companions are intrenched
in a state of siege against police who have
orders for their arrest.
1 a m.-Shortly after midnight noisy
rowds began demonstrating In the Rue de
Chabrol. but they were soon dispersed by
the police.
A leg of mutton and other provisions hav-
ing been thrown from a house opposite and
having fallen into the street they were
seized by the police. NJ. Guerin, enraged
at the loss of his Sunday dinner, flung the
window open and shook his fist, exclaimins:
IF a single one of my men should COM
plain of hunger 1 will blow LIE Pines's (pre-
feet of police) head of the first time he
passes through the streets. You policemen,
who have the misfortune to serve a band
Of scoundrels, ought to let things go. You
can't allow US to die of hunger. All, bon
dieu, but we shall resist. Send us up what
our friends have thrown us, or fire on us
at once. sayaees."

French people, woul be useless. The best
reply to Dreyfusard statements abroad will
be the condemnation of Dreyfus.
This condemnation is only a matter of
ten days or a fortnight, for condemned
Dreyfus certainly will be. Foreigners will
then see that their journals have deceived
them. for they will recognize that the mass
of the French nation, who will receive the
news of the conviction of Dreyfus as joyful
tidings. is not composed of officials, and
that If the majority of the French applaud
the condemnation Ii will be because 1t is
Just and merited."

How Secretary Root Is Keeping Truck
of Movements in the Philippines.

of Movements In the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, Aug. @.-The maps Of
the Philippines and especially of that por-
ton of the Island of Luzon north and south
Of Manila, which has been prepared for
the use of Secretary Root, may assume a
more important part in the coming am
paign than has been given IL heretofore.
Secretary Root has not only ascertained
where the United States troops are located,
and has them nicely marked off on the
map, but he has also taken into considera-
ton such Information as can be obtained
relative to the population of the adjacent
country, the kind Of people and their dis
position toward the United States.
The secretary has also been studying the
lines OF transportation and learning what
he can of the geography Of the country.
1t Is believed that more than one army
can operate to advantage in the Philip
pines and the suggestion has been made
by some army officers that an army should
start from different points and operate in
such a manner as to distract and destroy
the Filipino forces. AT present the United
States forces do not occupy the line of rail-
way half way to Lingayen. on the gulf Of
the same name. 1t has been suggested that
If one force were to start from Lingayen
and move south at the same time that an
other were moving north. there would be
a very great probability of soon securing
the entire railway for the use of the army
and the insurgents would be separated into
divisions east and west by the railroad, as
they are now divided into northern and
southern bands. Between Angeles and Lin
gayen is Tarlac, a town Of considerable size
and situated in a province where the ma
tives are said not to be unfriendly to the
United States. If this province could be
occupied it might be Of great advantage
to the government.
While these are merely suggestions 1t may
be that when the army in the Philippines
consists of $4,000 men instead of about 1900
or 2,0O0. it will be possible to have four
or more armies operating instead OF two,
as during the last campaign. The locations
or troops as marked by pins or the NAB
prepared for Secretary Root show the
places occupied as follows: North of Ma
Mia, under General Macarthur, a point
above Angeles, General wheaton,; An
geles. Porac. Calucut, Sta Rita. San Fer
nando. (MacArthur): Bats, Canadiba, San
Luis, Calumpit, Malolos. Quinga. Beluig,
Bustos. Guinguinto and Bigaa.

LABoRPs FORMER SECRETARY.
interviewed at seattle and Says Drey-
fus VIII BE Acquitted.

fus Will Be Acquitted.
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 20.-M. Leon Bu-
reau, of Paris, formerly private secretary to
M. Labori. is in the city, a guest Of DIR.
Adriene Monad, French vice consul. He
said to-day that the present trial of Drey-
fus will result in his acquittal. If a verdict
OF guilty be returned the Court of Cassa-
ton, the higher French authority, will at
once set it aside and order another court
martial, and so on until he is acquitted.
The Court of Cessation knows that French
law is being juggled by this military court,
and there are two grounds on which 1t could
set aside such a sentence-frst, a violation
Of the law; second, abuses of power.
when the Court of Cessation sent Drey-
fus back for a second trial." said NJ. Bu-
reau, "he was remanded on the charge OF
having been the author of the bordereau.
Now, this is the only thing he could be
tried for. Instead of sticking to this, the
court has permitted witnesses to talk of
his relations with women and other outside
matters, which is directly a violation OF
French law. II some matter not connected
with the bordereau should come up in the
testimony proving Dreyfus's guilt. this
could not try him. and the
Court of Cessation would have to order a
new trial for the specific purpose"
NJ. Bureau said it was within. the power Of
the Court Of Cessation to have decreed
Dreyfus innocent. In fact. there were but
two things for the tribunal to do-either
adjudge him not guilty or send him back for
retrial. This latter proceeding was deemed
best. as through a retrial a medium would
be furnished and so give the military party
a chance 10 redeem itself. 1t would look
so much better in the eyes of the world, and
help TO take away the odium an acquittal
by the Court of Cessation would make.
NJ. Bureau is a lawyer and an intimate
friend Of the Dreyfus family. He left
France four months ago and has been trav-
cling in the United States and Canada.

present. His doctors considered that it
would be inadvisable for him to attempt to
take part in to-day's proceedings. in view
of the danger of a relapse.
The first witness was Colonel Faibre, who
deposed that he had discovered a similarity
between the handwritings of the accused
and that OF the bordereau. He reiterated

ing, IT am sure he wrote the bordereau."

man. Any one who has had an at
tack of sciatic or inflamatory rheuma-

demoniac enough to warrant the be-
lief. 1t has never been claimed that
Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast
out demons, but it will cure rheuma-

THE WHITE MANS BURDEN.

THE WHITE MANS BURDEN.
"We are not likely in the future
to hear so much about the right
of men, who have not yet learned
to govern themselves, to govern
Others by their votes. The doc
trine of the declaration of inde-
pendence, that governments de-
rive their just powers from the
consent Of the governed, had
something of a shock In the war
bet ween the states, and the island
subjects of the United States will
find little comfort in reading that
celebrated instrument by the light
of subsequent history. The diff
culties of the race problem abroad
ought to bring charitable judg-
ment of the same thing here at
home. and we may personally ex-
pect our northern brethren to
meet us hereafter more in a spirit
of inquiry than rebuke."
The committee recommends
that an effort be made to Danish
from the schools any books which
teach false lessons, either of fact
or sentiment, and to this end sug-
gests the appointment of COM
mlttee of three members in each
state whose duty it shall be to ex-
anime school histories therein In

In discussing the report, DR.. J.
l.. M. Curry,of Virginia, discussed
the right of secession and defend
