Dreyfus' FeIlow-Prisoner..


France is so used to partial and prejudiced
judges and warped justice that she hardly sees
their faults. There four perfectly innocent
'forcats" in the lies du Saut'' when Dreyfus was
there; one Monod, who was convicted on the
evidence of .'agents provocateuis" of being in an
Anarchist plot; l forget the name of another
similarly convicted man. who died in that burn
ing island only last year; his letters were enough
to draw tears from a stone; they were the very
poetry of pathos; the Degraeve brothers were the
third and fourth ''forcats:" they spent more than
six years in the isles du Salut;' one of them
died there before his innocence was made known
by the confession of his accuser; tire other was
pardoned, and will be ''rehabiltated' to the
trifing degree that is humanity possible. The con-
science Of many would perhaps never have been
awakened to the wrong done Captain Dreyfus had
he not been an artillery officer and attached to
the general staff. This ayowal that startled
them; being startled, they reflected, and so came
round to doubt his guilt. Even Jaures and Glenn
enceau thought at first that Dreyfus ought to have
been shot

Another Bloody Battle

Manila, Feb. 1O.-The Amerl-
cans this afternoon attacked a
strong force Of insurgents who
concentrated themselves between
Caloocan and Malabon, and
after a sharp engagement routed
the enemy with great slaughter.
The Filipinos were strongly
entrenched, and for three hours
the fighting was severe, the
enemy showing the most reck-
less bravery, but nothing could
withstand the steady advance Of
the American troops, who finally
charged the enemy's works in
agniticent style and engaged
the Filipinos in desperate hand
to hand struggle. The Ameri-
can soldiers were aided in their
attack on the enemy's works by
the gunboat Concord and the
monitor MonadnOck, and the
shells from these vessels did fear
full execution.
AS the enemy fed they were
moved down by the accurate
American fire.
The loss to the Americans is
very Slight, but the enemy's
losses were enormous. 1t is eStl-
mated that fully twenty thous-
and Filiplnos were entrenched
between CaloOcan and Malabon.
AGUINALDO SEES THE FIGHT
1t is reported that Aguinaldo
was at Malabon and watched
the battle. He had gathered
this large force, hoping to strike

MANY DOCUMENTS

the Interior Office.

pany out Of court for the reason that
they have not complied with the law
regarding corporations which requires
them to place on fle in the lntesior
ONCE certain documents such az TIE
articles Of incorporation, appointment
Of agents, etc.
The proceedings had on this motion
in Judge Perry's court yesterday were
these. After disposing Of the contempt
matter Judge Perry took up the motion
Of the Tramways Company to dissolve
the injunction sued out by Southwick.
After the reading of the motion and
AFFIDAVIT OF w. II. Pain in support
thereof by Attorney Hatch, Mr.. Nicola
nahan offered counter motion to
strike from the files the motion to
dissolve the injunction on the ground
that through failure 10 comply with
Act 45 OF the Session Laws of 1898 the
Tramways Company had no standing
in court. Mr.. McClanahan backed up
this motion with an afiidavit Of LQgrin
Andrews, to the effect that he had on
the 18th day of October, 1899, examined
the records OF the Department OF Inter-
iOr Of the Hawaiian ISLANDS in SO far
as the same relate to foreign corpora.
tions and more particularly as to the
Hawaiian Tramways Company. That
he found there was no copy on file in
that Department Of the charter Of in
corporation or bylaws OF said corpor-
alton nor had any exhibit or report of
the affairs Of said company been filed
either for the year 1898 or 1899.
To Offset this affidavit Mr.. Hatch call
ed J. II. Boyd, clerk OF the Interior
Office, who testified In substance to the
loss OF the incorporation papers OF the
Hawaiian Tramways Company as above
related. A receipt book was produced,
stub in which showed that the Ha-
wsiian Tramways Company had paid
in August, 1886. the sum Of fifty dollars
as a fee for the fling OF its articles
of incorporation. The envelope In
which the papers had been placed was
also produced In evidence, showing
conclusively that the papers had been
filed originally. In answer to questions
IL was stated that-the last time the
missing papers had been seen was in
the old building previous to the re-
moval to the present quarters after the
overthrow OF the monarchy. They
were intact then. Some time after
wards there was a disposition on the
part of the Government to commence
suit against the Tramways Company
and the papers were wanted. 1t was
then that they were discovered to be
missing.
George T.. Smithies and Paul Neu-
mann were also examined as to the
missing documents. the latter especial
ly as to his knowledge Of the fact that
they were missing. on which point he
stated that he first learned OF 1t last
March after his return from the Main
land. He had then advised Mr.. Pain
to have copies made from the London
records and sent out. but could not say
what Mr.. Pain had done about 1t.
At this point the matter was ad-
journed to this morning.
