LIEUT.. FIELD SENT TO PROVIDENCE,

Rhode Island has no longer navy.
This does not mean that she no longer
has Naval Reserve battalion, but
rather that she has no longer vessel
of war for the Reserves. the United
States steam yacht Kanawha having
once more entered into the possession
OF the United States government.
Some weeks ago Governor Dyer noti-
fed the navy department that mas
much as the Kanawha had never been
equipped with guns of any kind, in
spite Of the fact that the armament for
the yacht had been repeatedly prom
ised, she was entirely useless as a prac-
ion. and he therefore desired TO return
her to the department Since that time
until today the governor had heard
nothing from the navy department. be-
yond the acknowledgment fthe re-
ceipt of his communication.
This morning Lieut.. Field, u. s. N,
reached this city from New Bedford,
having been detailed by the navy de-
partment TO come here in order to take
back The kanawha, and after making
an ofnciai call on Governor Dyer he, In
company with Lieut.. Eiswald the
commanding officer OF the Naval Re-
serve battalion, proceeded on board the
yacht and went through the examina-
ton of the vessel. as provided for by
the naval regulations, before he took
full charge OF her in the name OF the
navy department.
AS Governor Dyer gave the govern
ment a receipt for the yacht when she
was turned over to the sta,e, so Lieut.
Fielo after the examination was made
gave the state of Rhode Island a re.
ceipt for the vessel and this Afternoon
the Kanawha steamed away. but
whether she will be taken to New
York or Boston the authorities of this
state do not know.

the prefect of police gave the order to
close the Avenue De La Care for 300
yards in front OF the Lycee and also
all by-streets leading TO the avenue.
The gendarmes were immediately
drawn up along the avenue and the
space in front of the Lycee was cleared
of all spectators. A detachment of in
fantry was drawn across the avenue in
tow double lines. leaving between them
passage for Capt. Dreyfus across the
avenue from the military prison TO the
entrance TO the Lycee. The crowd
wn4~.. by that time had increased to a
few hundred was keut by the gen.
darmes at a distance of $50 yards on
either side of this passage. Capt Drey-
fus emerged from the military prison
under escort of a lieutenant and four
gendarmes. He crossed the railroad
quickly and disappeared within the
Lycee, the hedge of soldiers hiding him
from view.
The principal personages in the trial
arrived between $50 and Z o'clock. The
generals passed with hardly a cheer
from the spectators. Gen. Mercier alone
