Large Increase in American Imports.
 HarbOr Masters Report.

Washington. Aug. 1.-The annual report of the harbOr master of Hong Kong, q summary of which has been forwarded to the state department by Consul General ROunseman NiIdman shows an increase in American inn porting in 1898 over 1897. which has all taken place since August, or within period of four months. The increase for 1899 will be fully double that of 1898. because of the large number of ships plying between Manila and Hong Kong that have gone under the Amer ican flag and because of the greater consumption of American goods in Manila.

FILLED WITH GROSS FORGERY
The Character of inc Secret DOCu- menf Prepared In Part by inc Suicide Henry DeSCribed-If Ex- CeedS inc Worst TOp-SheIf Lif- erafure-The Military Furious at inc Disclosures.

Rennes, Aug. 1.-The DreySus courl martial concluded it's secret session al o'clock this morning when M. Pale c.ogue of tEe foreign office concluded his explanation of the secret dossier The court will meet again at 6:3O a. In. tomorrow.
 Mrs. Crawford reviews the situation as follows: All the notable Dreyfus- ards here are satisfied with the result Of the examination of the secret dos sier They have urged their newspa- per friends in Paris to ciamor for full public..y, knowig that if it be granted the military and nationalist parties would be utterly disgraced.
 They are convinced that the diplo- natic and war office dossiers teem with forgeries. Of course these i'm pressions are derived from the five counsel present at the examination Of thase precious papers. Publicity would mean the pillory for General de Boise deffre and his company. They would be pelted with their own Goul eggs, while Captain Dreyfus would be cleared in the face of the whole world.
 The military caste here is furious nt the turn things are taking. A cor respondent Of q Russian paper told me today that in a cafe frequenEed by of fioers he unfolded the Dreyfusard aurore to read. All the military men scowled at him in . mad manner and af.er coughing and otherwise showing their disapproval, went in a body to the other end Of the cafe as if the Russian were leper All the officers at a military club came out on the club balcony when bundle of Drey- fullrd journals was being burned in the streets and they approved the per formanoe by Unmfstakable signs.
 Che now sees the wisdom of the or der forbidding officers not attached to the garrison to s',ay here during the trial I hear that the secret dossier exceeds the worst top shelf literature. To secure secrecy the scribes who worked for Henry and his friends did not hesitate to forge letters from high diplomatic peIsonages. Nearly score of love letters from lady in the Diplomatic sphere were supposed to have been seized in the dispatch box of an embassy. The person whom she is represented as having had as cor respondent was an attache q: an em- tassy here and much younger than the lady, who is m12de to appear impas- stoned, quite an EIoise
 Of course she mentions the Dreyfus affair and asks an aatache to help whitewash the unfortunate captain. M. JOuaust expects that there will be q great exposure of a, cons piracy against the republic and that the high handed measures of the present gov ernmer, are agctnst certain generals who injured Dreyfus The examina- tiCn of the diplomatic dcssier was concluded this morning Dreyfus on leaving the Lyces looked better than he has ever previously appeared.
