DREYFUS TRIAL OPENS TO-DAY.
Rennes Animated but no Disturbances
Occur-ReMderinso of Indictment


Rennes, Aug. 6.-The town is extreme
perfect tranquility prevails. Public in
terest is centered upon the arrival from
Paris of personages likely to figure in
the trial of Captain Dreyfus. Among
these are Generals De Boisdeffre. Gonse
and Roget, all in mufti; NJ. Godefrey
Cavaignac, former minister of war, and
M, Casimir-Perier, former president of
France. A large crowd which had gath
cred around the railway station greeted
the generals on alightng from the train
with cries of 'Vive larmee." The re-
visionst spectators responded with
"Vive la republlque," but there was no
disturbance Of order
NJ. Casimir-Perior, who was much ia
tigued by the long railway journey, de-
cided to walk to the hotel hoping that
he would not be recognized; but his
identity soon became known and large
crowd followed him, as, attired in light
summer suit, he walked slowly along
chatting with the prefect of police and
chief of the secret police, NJ Vaguier,
who met him at the railway station and
accompanied him to the hotel.
The crowd made no demonstration.
The authorities, however, deemed it
wise to maintain the most stringest pre-
cautions for the safety of the former
president and six gendarmes now patrol
the front OF the hotel where he has
apartments, while a number of detec-
tives watch the entrance hall closely
and scan all arrivals. 1t is now fixed
that the trial shall commence fo-mor-
row morning. After the indictment has
been read it is thought probable that
the president of the court marshal Gem
eral Iouaust will order the doors closed
for the consideration of the secret dos
sier, which will be presented by General
Chamion. The consideration of the dos
sier it is expected, will occupy two days,
so that the next public session will prob
ably be on Thursday, although perhaps
not until Friday. The general impress
sion is that the whole proceedings will
occupy at last three weeks.

vcreIy Censur"d.

Madrid, Aug. 6.-The supreme court
martial before which Generals Toral
and Pareia have been on trial charged
with surrendering Santiago de Cuba to
the American forces without having ex-
hausted all means of defense, has ac-
quilted both officers on the ground that
they acted upon the orders of their su-
periorS and only surrendered when it
was impossible to do otherwise. The
judgment severely censures those in
high command in the colonies and in
Spain, as well as the government for lack
of resources for the defence of the col
onies. 1t was rendered by a majority of
one vote only, and is not well received
by the press and public who wanted
clearer exposure of relative responsible
ity.

Star: l.. B. Hayes, who laid artih- cial stone walks for P. R. Brady, Jr., and A. F. Barker of Florence, has re- turned to the city. From all that Mr
 Hayes could gather he issatisded that Florence will pick up again and amount to something There are several reasons for this theory. The stages come in with full loads of pas sengers, the Mineral Creek copper mines are factor The Ray mine is one of the most promising, this on Mineral creek, while there is the Jes- sic Brown, owned by Prof. Blake and R. c. Brady of this city. Everybody, almost everybody, is interested in mining. The country around is sus- ceptible of great results from d farm CTS standpoint The merchants ap- pear to be contented, and the best equipped court house in the territory Is located at Florence.

It is believed a final effort will be made to overthrow the legality of the grant and permit the undlsputed pos session of the holding by the settlers.
 Herald: A very prominent capital ist of the east Is in our city today, the president Of the Aetna Assurance Co.,, ex-Governor Bulkeley of Connecticut, who is largely interested in this val ley. Gov. Bulkeley is a member of the reorganization committee of the Ari- zona Improvement Go. and member of the board of directors of the Ari- z0na Water Co., He is here for a change Of climate and to look after the important interests he is con nected with here.
 Republican: Mir. Nj. II. Williams, late district attorney of Maricopa county, who has been in failing health for two years past, due to saftening of the brain, was yesterday placed in the territorial hospital for the insane at his own request. MT Williams has been steadily failing for some tice and none realized 1t more accul ely than himself: Loss Of power to work and of memory caused him great deal of worry and he felt that treatment at the territorial hospital would be of benefit.
 Journal Miner: Governor Murphy is being besieged to pardon Fred Hughes. The wise cOuusels of Mir. Hughes are being sorely missed by the present legisIatu e. When not a member of previous legislatures MT. Hughes has almost always been on band as the guiding star of the dem ocratic members. With all his faults, and being as he is, in the peniten- tiary, there are worse democrats than he, outside of the penitentiary walls, aud they are not all in the legislature either.
 Herald: The matter of water st0r- age for the Salt River valley now seems to be in fair way to be con sumated at as early a day as such huge undertaking can be accom- plished When accomplished there will be no more productive region of country on the continent, no richer city than Phoenix will become.
