LIBRARIANS REPORT.
johnson Brigham Files Annual Re-
port With the Governor.


Des Moines, Oct. 4.-State Librarian
Johnson Brigham in his biennial report
filed with the governor on Tuesday,
discusses the question and recommends
the creation of a library commission for
the state, relative to which the general
assembly has made investigations from
time to time. Two years ago a bill was
prepared, but was considered inoppor-
tune by the library committees. Since
this measure was presented the legis-
latures of Maine, Indiana, Minnesota
and Kansas have each passed library
commission law with view, primarily,
with supplying reading matter to COM
munities that stand in need OF It and.
secondarily, to beautifully stimulate
the library spirit in community life.
Stimulated by reports from other
states and by the zeal OF officers and
members Of the leading women's clubs
and societies in our own state, the
State Library Association OF Iowa re-
Gently invited the corporation Of the

London Was Excited.

London, Oct. 4.-The only consolation
for the ndeclsive ending of the first
yacht race is furnished by the splendid
showing of Shamrock in light wind
1t is now for the first time really be-
lieved here that Shamrock Will bring
back the cup Expressions of confidence
in its powers previously INDUCED in
We're merely manifestations of self
confidence.
No sporting contest has ever aroused
so much interest in London. 1t com
pletely overshadowed the Transyaai
crisis. Nothing else was spoken of dur
ing the afternoon, and while the race
was in progress extraordinary excite
ment prevailed at all the leading clubs.
The chief center of popular interest
was the transparency displayed by the
Daily Mail on the Thames embankment
showing the respective positions of the
yachts. Owing to the prolongation OF
the race the result was not known here
until after $50, and interest gained as
the minutes sped and the mass of peo-
Pile on the embankment grew to enor-
nous proportions Ultimately, with
Shamrock leading, it was signaled thai
the time limit had been exceeded and
the race had lapsed.
The popular excitement over the mex
race promises TO be still greater. and II
is quite evident that if Upton returns
with the cup he will get reception be
fore which that of Lord Kitchener after
Omdurlnan must pale into insignifi.
lsrappe.

NO WILLETT CONFERENCE E

Atlanta, Ga, August 2I-The Constitu- ticn will tomorrow publish from its staff correspondent in New York an interview with Hon. Fleming Dubignon, of Savannah, chairman of the state democratic execu- tive committee, in which he denies that he was present at any anti-Bryan conference held at Saratoga, as has been published. as much rest as he has had time for and could not have attended any conference of the kind if he had wished to do so. He said:
 q have not been in any political confer ence of any character whatsoever, nor do l know of any such conference being held; l have not discussed politics with any body; and as for myself being in com munication with MT. Wilett and Senator German, as some of the papers had 1t, l have not set my eyes upon either Of these gentlemen since l came north, nor have l communicated with either Of them by tee- graph or letteC on any subject in my life"
 Mr. Dubignon said regarding the next democratic platform: T take it that the Chicago platform in all of It's essential fea- lures will be reaffirmed with the strongest possible declaration against the domination of the government by trusts and against the policy of imperialism and militarsm' '

i i.. SUFFERERS FROM THE RECENT STORM Thought That 100 Persons Lost
 Their Lives. MANY ARE NOW DESTITUTE Many Wrecks Strew the Shore in the Vicinity of Albemarle and Pon- lico Sounds. Impossible to
 Get Complete Record
MANY ARE NOW DESTITUTE

Norfolk Va, August 24.-It is now thought that the number of people who lost their lives by shipwreck and disaster at tending the West Indian hurricane which passed up the coast about ten days ago will reach one hundred Accounts in many respects conflicting, continue to come in from the Albemarle and Pemlico Sound region, and the coast from Hatteras to Body's island, in which section the greater number of casualties occurred. As this section of broad waters is the artery for small craft from the region tributary to Chesapeake Bay and as far north as Philadelphia and south to Georgia. the number of vessels traversing these inland seas is always great
 Masters of craft in from that region state that small schooners, pungies, sloops and fishing craft wrecked ashore broken up sunk or turned over. are to be seen almost hourly in a trip through the sounds, and it is thought that the total drowned will run close to hundred, if it does not even exceed'it.
 On Swan, Hog and other islands in the vicinity at Portsmouth, Big and Little Kinnaket, Ocracoke and smaller points. fully sixty to seventy house, four or five churches and numerous stores barns and warehouses were either washed away or damaged beyond repair As result num- bers are homeless and destitute and many others have lost crops and 1ocks.
 Stock and implements and the fishing in- terests have suffered greatly. In a few days fairly complete report can be made but at present rumors outweigh statements and an accurate footing of the damage cannot be reached

secret dossier. General Chamoin admitted that he did wrong in accepting the report, but pleaded ignorance in judicial matters The report consisted of three pages of which the second and third Chamoin de- clared, contained fantastic, and in fact, false representations.
 M. Labori brought General Mercier to the bar in reference to this Mercier admitted that the reports emanated from Du Paty de Clam, but claimed that he himself did not understand it's contents, though he thought it would be interesting and per haps useful to Chamoin. This explanation was regarded as very lame and combined with other shady actions, would damn Mercier as a witness in the eyes of any impartial tribunal
 The remainder of the sitting was taken up with the deposition of minor witnesses, mostly M. Beurepaires puppets, whose evidence, when it did not bore the audi ence produced merriment.
 Two Interesting Scenes
 Two interesting scenes however. took place, the first when NJ Labori asked Gen. eral Roget to give his opinion of Ester- hazy's role and his visit to the German eHlDdSSys octODeF G3, loJf. ftOSet replleu in the tone of studied disdain which he habitually adopts toward counsel for the defense: 1T absolutely refuse to tell you"
 M. Labori warmly insisted, but the pres ident of the court crushed him with curt refusal even to allow General Roget to re- spond.
 The second scene was between M. Labori and Colonel Jouaust after the deposition of the royalist deputy. De Grandemaison, which consisted of a clap-trap tirade against foreigners intervening in the af- fairs, titlo-tittle-tattle quite outside of the case, delivered in grandiloquent style and edited with the preposterous words ad- dressed to the judges:
 If you think Dreyfus innocent, acquit him; but if you decide he is guilty, you must pronounce his condemnation"
 The deputy accompanied this instruction to the court with sweeping gestures, and turned to the stage amid roars of laugh ter from the audience, which De Grande-

 SHOWS HIS HAND

Rennes, August A.-At the opening of the session of the Dreyfus courtmartial this morning a medical certificate signed by doctors unknown, here was read declaring that it was impossible for Colonel Du Paty de Clam to leave his bed and come to Rennes to testify. M. Lapori asked that two well-known medical men should be in- structed to examine him, but Colonel Jouaust refused.
 Rowland Strong, the English newspaper man, then deposed as to the circumstances in which Esterhazy confessed to him that he wrote the bordereau.

"In addition to this the Cape ministry, while absolutely declining to arm the vol unteers of the colony, continues to afford other facilities to the Orange Free State, to arm it's burghers, just across the water, freely granting the use of the colonial rail- ways for the distribution of cartridges from the Bloemfontein arsenal of the border towns.
