DREYFUS.
The Cruiser Sfax Sent to DEVILS Island
to Carry the Famous Prisoner to
France.

FORT DE FRANCE. ISLAND OF
MARTINIQUE, June 5.-The admiral
commanding the French squadron in
these waters received yesterday an or
der to send the cruiser Sfax to take
Dreyfus from Devils island. off the
coast of French Guinea, and convey
him to France. The Sfax, which is
commanded by Capt. Coffinieres de
Nordek, left for DEVILS island at ten
o'clock yesterday evening.
The authorities of Cayenne foresaw
four days ago that the Sfax would
leave Fort de France on her present
mission, and at two o'clock this after
noon the despatch boat Geoland, sta
toned in the waters of French Guiana,
left Cayenne, the capitol, for Devil
island, having on board the superinten
dent of the penitentiary and the COM
mander of the marine artillery. These
officials are delegated by the French
government to officially notify DreyfuS
of the revision of his trial.
Dreyfus received the day before yes
terday, from his wife, cable message
announcing the decision of the court of
cessation. DreyfuS, however. will be
under charges after being Officially noti-
fled of the courts action in his case, but
he will be able to resume wearing the
military uniform of his rank in order
to so appear before the new council of
war.
The Goeland will be back at Cayenne
tomorrow.

Another confirmation of the death and
distress on the Edmonton range is brought
by J. F. Story, of Oas2rion, a passenger
on the steamer Dirigo. story, with three
others, started for Dawson seventeen
months ago over the Edmonton route but
was unable to get through. He says there

country IS one continuation of swamps and
sloughs. For weeks he and his compan-
Ions slept in wet clothes and blankets.
The q head of horses with which they
started died and they were compelled to
retrace their steps. At Laird river they
found 80 men suffering from frost bites
and scurvey. At every camp they found
sickness and distress. They gave out
their provisions until they ran short them
selves. For SIX weeks they lived on rab-
bits, which they shared.

General ID. ID. Henderson not Ready to
Make a declaration Concerning Imperial


ism
MILWAUKEE,, June 5.-The Journal
to-day publishes an interview with
Gen. ID. B. Henderson, of Iowa, in which
ne expresses gratitude for the efforts of
Wisconsin congressman in his behalf
as candidate for the speakership. In
regard to the report that he is anti
imperialiSt, Gen. Henderson said this
was not the time for individuals to fix
politics.

derson, land then see whether it is
reasonable for us to anticipate the con-
ditions which time brings. We are in
period of transition and readjust-
ment, and Congress will not meet I'M
Til next December-unless, which is not
likely, there should be a special ses-
sion-and we should not attempt to
forestall future action which the light
of developments may, show to- be ad-
vantageous and proper.
What we should do at this time is
to Steadfastly support President Nc
Kinley. AS the chief executive, he is
in possession of hourly acquired infor-
nation as to the ever changing condi-
tionS This he in time will give over to
us, l have no doubt, and in the mean

to give him our firm, loyal support.

Gives HIS views on prospective FINANCIAL
Legislation.
WASHINGTON June 5.-Senator
Allison of the Senate finance commit
tee, in an interview to-day, said:
In my judgment the next congress
will pass a financial measure. My
judgment also is that the finance COM
mittee will take up the financial ques-
ton anew. The bill agreed upon by
the Republican committee of the House
will, no doubt, be laid before us in the
nature of suggestion, and we will
consider it, as we will do other plans
which represent commendable features.
Perhaps in the future we will meet
with the gentlemen of the House, but
nothing definite in that direction has
been arranged"
Have you any idea along what lines
the currency legislation will be
framed?"
Il do not anticipate any very radical
measures. We want to maintain our
standard and at the same time give
the country safe and yet a flexible
currency. 1t is said that we ought to
declare for the gold standard, but we
are on the gold standard now. The
recommendations of the President rel
ative to the issue of national bank cur
rency to the par value of the bonds de-
posted with the United States treas
urer, a decrease in the tax on national
bank circulation and the payment of
gold for greenbacks when the latter
are taken out of the treasury are all
worthy of enactment into law and
should not be surprised TO see them
adopted

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June s.
Frank Thomson, president of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, died at
1880 o'clock this evening at his home
at Mercen, few miles out of the city.
Mr. Thomson had been i'll about two
weeks. He returned to his home on
May 20 from a tour of inspection, which
he, with other officials of the company
had made over the main and leased
lines of the Pennsylvania railroad sys-
tenn. The trip had occupied about q
week. Upon his return he was suffer
ing from acute indigestion and at once
took to his bed and placed himself in
the hands of his physician. Mr.. Thorn
son had enjoyed extraordinary good
health and his relatives and friends be-
believed he would soon rally and re-
cover from his indisposition. His
death tonight was rather sudden and
was wholly unexpected. Mr. Thomson
was So years of age and since he reach
ed the age of seventeen years had been
in the service of the great railroad
company of which he had been the head
during the last two years of his life,
he having succeeded to the presidency

The Admiral Has Made Farewell Calls and

HONG KONG, June 5.-Admiral
Dewey left the Park Hotel and re-
turned to the Olympia yesterday. This
morning he paid farewell calls to the
governor, General Gascoigne and the
commanders of the warshiDs in the
harbor. The Olympia will sail at
O'Clock tomorrow afternoon.
Admiral Dewey's health has been
considerably benefited by his residence
at the Peak. He has refused all social
invitations and has taken a perfect
rest. He appears somewhat haggard
from the effects of the continual strain
he has been under and the climate. 1t
is hoped that the quiet change and the
voyage will quite restore him to health
by the time he reaches New York.
The details of the ports at which he
will call are still undecided, but it is
probable that stops will be made at
Singapore and Colombo. The admiral
seems anxious to avoid all display and
merely to seek rest. His officers and
crew are elated at the prospect of re-
turning home

ARMS FOR REBELS.
Capt. Grimes Tells of His Part in the Fill
clustering scheme in Aid of FiIipinos.

clustering SCneme In All
NEW YORK, June "a special to
the Journal from Washington says:
Capt. Joseph Henry Grimes has made
a confession of the part he took in aid
ing the Filipinos, and the document is
in the possession of the government.
He is a British subject, born in Hong
Kong 20 years ago. He was office man
ager at Shanghai for l.. Seitzel & Co.,
and there became acquainted with the
agents of the Philippine rebellion. On
June Grimes firm contracted with
Aguinaldo to supply 5000 Mauser rifles,
2 Maxim guns, 100000 cartridges, the
steamer Pasig and provisions, etc., at a
cost of $13S,000. The outfit was seiz-
ed by the British authorities at the re-
quest of the Spanish consul.
Then, says Grimes, B. F. Sylvester,
member of his firm, arranged with Ed
ward Bedlo, American consul at Can
ton, to send the arms to that point by
means of false sale to the Chinese
government. The Chinese viceroy was
to reject the arms, but as it turned out
he seized 1880 and kept them to sup
press rebellion in his own territory.
The local authorities refusing permits
sion for the Pasig to sail, she was trans
ferred from British to American regis
ter by Consul Bedloe, her name chang
ed to the Abbey, and Bedloe cleared her
and the supplies for Singapore. On
August 27 the Abbey, flying the Amer
lean flag and commanded by Capt. G.
w. Ellis, an American citizen, left
Whampo, 10 miles from Canton. On
board was Lewis Leonard Etezel the
American citizen whose mission it was
to teach the Filipinos how to use the
Maxim guns. Sylvester, Grimes as
serts, falsely told him that the facts
about the expedition were known TO
Admiral Dewey and Consul General
Wildman.
The cargo was taken to Santangas,
eighty miles south of Manila, and
turned over to the insurgent governor
of that town. 1t consisted of 496 rifles,
100000 cartridges, two Maxim guns and
1000 rounds of Maxim ammunition.
After discharging the cargo Grimes
went to Bacor, where he met Agllin-
aldo, who said he wanted more ammu,
milton. Grimes returned to Hong Kong,
but was not successful in his further
plans. Sylvester visited Aguinaldo and
failed to conclude a contract with him
to procure arms in Germany
1T will be seen by the above state
ment," Grimes says, that both Syl-
yester and Etezel plotted on American
soil against the American government"
The Abbey was seized about Septem-
Der 25 by the American revenue cutter
Mccullough, of Admiral Dewey's fleet.
Grimes was arrested in Manila Noyem-
her &
