Lincoln, Sept. 14.-At the Nebraska
Grand Army reunion yesterday Chap
lain p. c. Johnson offered the fol-
lowing resolution, which was unani-
mously adopted: Resolved, that as
convention of soldiers who have
fought in the wars undertaken in the
interests of a common humanity, hav-
ing for their object the redress Of
wrongs perpetrated on the weak and
defenseless, we desire to express our
adherence of a verdict, as in the case
of Captain Dreyfus, that consigns an
innocent man to ignominy, shame and
pain, and that bespeaks the spirit of a
bigoted past rather than that of an en-
lightened present"

The Blockade of LuzOn Has Not

New York, July 27.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: According

from officers returning from the Philip

Hong Kong, but officers just returned say
there is no doubt the temptation offered
by Aguinaldos high prices has induced
merchants to violate the neutrality laws

THE CUBANs ARE UNFIT
TO Even Act as Soldiers, According
TO the Depnrtmcnt


New York, July PA Times special
from Washington says: A suggestion
heard at the war department that ii would
be wise thing to raise some troops in
Cuba to relieve the American troops Low
on duty there and to provide them With
American officers in part does not meet
with the most cordial support from men
who are acquainted with the conditions
that would have TO be met. Later, it IS
admitted, when fewer OF the Cubans as
pre- to at once be colonies, such u pro-
gramme may be advisable.
According TO all accounts, the expert
meat of using native troops in Porto hlco
has been successful. When Adjutant Ger
eral Corbin Was asked today what he had
heard about them he answered at once
General Davis, you may have observed,
has not attracted much attention since he
took command in Porto Rico. That is a
good sign, for with the slightest dissatiS-
faction we would be hearing great deal.
He has a battalion of Porto Ricans in SER
vice in San Juan and Major Carson, who
has seen them on duty, tells me that thsy
are fine men, under admirable discipline,
proud of their uniforms and the govern
ment, and, with many lieutenants of their
own race and language, are quite content
ed and useful. hope that this attempt
to make use of the natives in Porto Rico
may be extended and that in other ways
they may be encouraged to protect ard
provide for themselves When the time
comes for Cuba to follow in the same path
we shall be glad to withdraw our troops
and afford them opportunity to show their
capacity for preserving order"
