penetrated only through the rubber.
and then turned back as if struck with
hammer, simply clinched. No other
tire that we have ever sold would have
stood this test. The only reason we

addresses by Gov. Smith and Ex-Governor
Toole Some comment is expresserd over
the following proclamat ton or announce
ment that Bishop Brondel issued yester-
day from the Cathedral of the Sacred
Heart:
"A grand patriotic celebration will take
place on July when the corner stone Of
the capitol building will be laid. We feel
it most keenly that the management has
thought proper to invite the Freemasons
to perform the ceremony and SO exclude
Catholics from taking part in it. The
Freemasons society is condemned by the
Catholic church as a society opposed to
church and state. Loving chuch and
state we Catholics cannot reasonably join
with them. Against the individual Ma
sons we have nothing to say. Against
the Masonic order we declare with the
Universal church that it is the greatest
enemy of the religion of Christ and of hui
manity."

No Call Issued.

Washington, July SIT was positively
stated al the war department that no call
had been issued for $1,000 additional VOL
unteers, and there is no immediate pros
pect of such action. An interesting state
ment was made, however, that there are
now practically $1,000 men at General
Otis command, whenever he wants them.
The troops necessary to bring his COM
mand in the Philippines up to this figure
can be shipped to him as soon as trans
ports can take them away from San
Francisco. Recruiting for the regular
army has brought that establishment up
to within 200 of its maximum strength.
The force that will be at Otis disposal
when the new troops now in this country
reach him. at the beginning of the fall
campaign, may be summarized as fol-
lows: Seventeen regiments of regular
infantry, 25,S40; three new volunteer regi-
ments, Aba; four batteries of Third ar
tillery, 4S9; ten batteries of the Sixth,
1880; Fourth cavalry, 1880: an engineer
battalion, 200; signal corps, $50; total

military prison this morning. This was
the first time Demange, the defender of
Dreyfus at the court martial of 1894, and
Dreyfus had seen each other since the
sentence. On entering the room, De-
mango and Dreyfus threw themselves
into each others arms. The scene was
most touching. Neither were able to
utter word, but warmly embraced.
Dreyfus clasped Laborie's hand and.
in a voice chol<ed with emotion. eX-
pressed the deepest gratitude for the
splendid manner in which Laborie had
championed his cause. Demange and
Laborie then gave the prisoner a general
review of all that has happened since
Dreyfus was sent to DEVILS island. De-
mango and Labore then left. They were
both greatly impressed with the appear
ance Of Dreyfus. They declared Dreyfus
was both physically and mentally in
much better health than they anticipated

Jamaican Delegates.

New York. June 3.--A. II. Miles is one
OF party Of four Jamaicans who are
Saying at the Fifth avenue MOTEL. They
snent of Kingston and have just returned
from Washington. Dispatches from
Washington state that the delegation was
sent to confer with the authorities there
With a view to obtaining reduction in
the tariff on sugar Washington dis
patches furnish additional information to
the effect that they have been ordered to
Canada to carry on negotiations with the
government at Ottawa. Mr.. Miles says
the sugar trading industry in Jamaica
is almost a a standstill.
In the latter part of the last century,"
he said, Jamaica turned out 900 hogs
heads Of sugar annually. That was when
we had cattle mills and the old ranger
process, putting the hogsheads in tiers
and letting the molasses drain in Now
we have steam machinery and centrifugal
machines for drying the sugar. not quite
mp to date, to be sure, but infinitely su-
perior to the old method, and yet we turn
out only $4,000 hogsheads of sugar annual
ly. The United States is, of course our
principal market and the tariff is so high
that the small plantations will not pay
Cuban planters manage to make it pay
because they carry on business on a lars-
er scale. We cannot dispose of our sugar
IN England because the English consum-
ers are supplied at less than cost with the
continental beet sugar on which France
and Germany give a big bounty. The
United States will be supplied with the
same kind of sugar some day but it will
be a long time. The present industry in
Jamaica now is fruit growing. Bananas
are being grown there in large quantities
and citrus fruits, which are Indigenous
10 the country are being carefully cult
waited Since the seventies the fruit trade
has been increasing rapidly. We now
have five steamers plying between ia
ma:ca and Philadelphia, Boston and Bal
,imore for the sole accommodation of this
branch Of commerce.

Many Lives Lost.

DISPATCH from Austin, Tex, says: Re
ports from Central and Southern Texas at

Calvert is still isolated, except by long
distance telephone. Estimates of the
number of lives lost place it at 80. 1t

alton can be learned. No estimate of the
loss of property places the total loss at
less than $5,GOO,0O0. This includes the
damage to railroads which exceeds any
thing ever before known in the state.
Only two white persons are known to
have drowned, T. S. Dawson, a merchant
of Port Sullivan, and an unknown man

Were Shot Down BY a Rob-
ber Last Night
WERE GIVEN NO CHANCE
Were Ordered to Throw up Their
Hands But Before They Could do
so They Were Murdered--NO Booty
Was Secured.

Prescott, Ariz., July Sword has just
reached here Of the murder last night of
two young storekeepers--J. M. Rogers
and Clinton d. Wingfield-at Camp
Verde, 40 miles east of this town. Two
masked men rode up to the store, one re-
naming on guard while the other dis
mounted and entered the store, which
was still open.
The robber who entered the store de-
manded that Rogers and Wingfield throw
mp their hands, but before an opportunity
was given them to comply he opened fire,
killing both storekeepers and seriously
wounding Captain John Boyd who was in
fhe store at the time.
The shooting attracted the attention of
neighbors and the robbers We're fright
ened off before they succeeded in getting
any money.
OWING to the remOteness of Camp Verde
from Prescott the owners of the store
were compelled to have large amount
of money on hand at all times.
A posse of citizens was organized at
Camp Verde for pursuit of the robbers,
and on receipt of the news here this
morning the sheriff and deputy left
for the scene of the tragedy. Should the
murderers be caught it is doubtful if they
ever reach Prescott alive.

EnliSting More Men.

New York, July 3-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Hav-
ing heard flom Gen. Otis that he needs
6,33S men to fill up the regular regiments
and about 1000 men for the two volunteer
regiments he was authorized to enlist, or
ders will be issued tomorrow for the en-
listment Of $4,000 men. This will actually
give Otis about $4,000. Allowing a loss
of II per cent for disease, wounds. etc,
which he stated as the present percent
age Of ineffectives, he will have, instead
of an effective force of 80, 600 men, one OF
nearly $4,000. The war department has
anticipated the need of men for the regu-
lar army and has sent 1000 unassigned re-
cruits to Manila within two weeks. Four
thousand recruits are now being drilled
at the Preside and will sail the middle
of the month, leaving only 33S more men
to be supplied to the regular regiments.
1t is confidently predicted that by Aug
ust the eight regiments to be organized
in this country and the 1000 men requlr-
ed for the two volunteer regiments at Ma
nila will be ready to proceed to Otis
aid. In order to put the volunteers in an
effective condition as rapidly as possible
eight military posts, one for each regi-
ment, will be selected to which recruits
will be sent, as follows: Plattsburg bar
racks, New York; Fort Thomas, Ken
lucky; Columbus barracks, Ohio; Fort
! Sheridan, Illinois; Leavenworth, Kansas,
and the Presido, California and probably
Fort Crook, Nebraska, and Vancouver
barracks, Washington.
/ The vacancies existing in the regular
regiments under Gen. Otis command
represent men whose terms of enlist
ments have expired and not casuals.
Most of the vacancies exist in the regi-
ments which sailed for Manila with Mer-
ritt Of the volunteers 1880 still remain
in Manila and they will be returned as
quickly as possible. The fact that Otis
has reduced to two regiments the num-
Der to be organized at Manila and has
| asked for 1000 to fill them up. shows that
| he has had much difficulty to obtain re-
enlistments of volunteers. 1t is esti-
mated that he has obtained only 800 men,
not enough to form one regiment.
Under the instructions to recruiting Of
ficers, enlistments for three year recruits,
| intended for regular regiments and en-
| llStmentS or volunteers Iof TWO years VIII
be made. In the case OF the volunteers
there will be no restrictions as to citizen
ship or educational qualifications. Re-
cruiting officers have previously been
compelled to reject men who were not
citizens of the United States or uneducat-
ed and have gone SO far as to throw out
men who were flat-footed. While it is in
tended to obtain as high class OF men
| for the volunteer service as possible, it
is pointed out that the law will allow the
enlistment Of recruits showing sufflclent
intelligence to perform duty as American
soldiers.

A Filipino Attack.

Manila, July 3.-6:05 p. m.-Reports
have been received here of an outbreak
in the island of Negros, incident upon the
departure of the California regiment for

posts preparing to depart, thought the
Americans We're evacuating the island,
and party of 250 rebels, mostly Bolo-
men, attacked the troops and killed one
man and wounded another belonging ia

driven off.

poles. The damage cannot at present be
ascertained. The town of Garthby has
been entirely destroyed, and 400 people
We're rendered homeless. The loss there
is $50, 600; little insurance. The village OF
Mitchell, on the Intercolonial railway, is
burning, but will probably be partly
