the Dreyfus affair has dragged the couh.
try" and says that it Is high time for
US to stand up and be ourselves again"
Continuing its review Of the situation,
the Temps observes: "Casimir-Peri tes-
titled to his wishes for a reconciliation,
and we now see how far from it we are.
Perhaps this pistol shot marks the cul-
mination Of the crisis and will restore
us to the path Of good sense"
The Liberte, which holds the Govern

anarchy that has existed for the last two
years and that has sown broadcast the
seeds of civil war;" says: 'The outrage
is only IN incident in the era of catas-
trophies toward which the country is
rushing"
The Journal Des Debats says: ''The
revolver shot is bound to be the end, and
one fine morning it will be closely follow

hate, contempt for justice and law and
all the fanatical, anarchic and homicidal
passions continue to poison the air we
breathe"
The Figaro says: "In all the long series
of crimes in the pages Of our history this
is the first time when assassination has
struck down an advocate, and that, too,
at the very hour when preparing to plead
In defense Of his client, to establish truth
and to confound accusers."

Chicago Correspondence:

the last two years, was on an extensive
scale, and values for many Of these rose
to q materially higher level. In only a
few instances were there any signs OF
manipulation on the part Of insiders"
or cliques of market operators. The buy
ing came for the most part from the
commission houses, and seems to have
been largely for the account Of people
well posted as to the condition, earnings
and prospects Of these corporations.
Reports from the principal trade and
manufacturing centers are Of favorable
character and furnish abundant explana-
ton for this revival Of interest In the
securities included in the industrial"
group. From all sides a steadily increas-
ing activity in the leading lines is re-
ported. The capacity of the mills Is be-
ing tested, and prices are being well
maintained. Goods are going into actual
consumption, and still there is no slack
ening of the demand.
The tendency Of the money market has
been toward an easier condition, but the
approach of the crop-moving season
seems to make 1t doubtful il there will
be any material decline in rates from
the present level in the next few months.

ton of crops, issued Thursday afternoon,

ward, but the present condition of spring
wheat being interpreted to indicate de-
ficiency compared with last year of about
60,OOO,OOO bushels, spectators took q
different view Of the situation, and In
thirty minutes Friday afternoon the price
Of wheat recovered all 1t had lost In two
weeks. The Government estimates of
the yield Of winter and spring wheat
make their combined shortage, compared
with the official figures Of the previous
year, 175,0OO,O00 bushels. There Is no
suggestion of low prices for wheat in
these figures.
While comparatively high prices for
wheat are almost foregone conclusion.
therefore, bearing in mind the failure of
the crops in southeastern Europe. the
size Of this years corn crop seems to
point to a wholly different prospect for
the price Of that most important cereal.
When the enormous aggregate of promis-
ed production, however, Is taken into ac-
count, the sum II represents at even 20
cents bushel is a splendid object lesson
of the huge capacity of the American
farmers fos drawing wealth from the
generous soil they cultivate. The esti-
mated production of corn for the season.
with present condition maintained Til
harvested, as indicated by the Govern
ment report, is 2,150, ,0OO, 900 bushels. At
20 cents bushel that represents the vast
sum of $3.50, 100000.

The appalling conditions existing in
Porto Rico were made more fully known
to the War Department Wednesday by
Gen. Davis in a dispatch which says the
deaths outright in the island will reach
1000, while many are dying daily from
injuries and privations.
According to a special cable from San
Juan, Porto Rico, hundreds of people are
dying of starvation on the stricken ISL
ands. The dispatch gives new details Of
the recent hurricane and describes the
terrible scenes witnessed in the Bayamon
and Arecibo districts. Arecibo was de-
vastated by the hurricane and later was
flooded by the Arecibo and Manati riv-
ers. Two hundred bodies have already
been recovered and it is thought that
hundreds more of persons missing have
been swept out to sea by the food. The
town was inundated to a depth of six
feet. When the water subsidized dead
bodies were found everywhere. They
were buried where they were found. The
town is now filing up with starving peo-

Nearly Three Thousand Filipino Reb-

The Filipinos sustained severe de-
feat before Angeles. Ten companies of
the Twelfth infantry, with two cannon,
attacked $500 insurgents who were en-
trenched near the town. A fierce fight
followed, in which the Filipinos were
worsted and driven away in disorder.
Their loss was 200 men. The Americans
had two killed and twelve wounded. The
taking of Angeles is considered very
important strategic movement and has
been the endeavor Of the Americans ever
since the beginning Of the rainy season.

Honest supporters Of the military party
were speechless. They have stood by the
army in crisis after crisis in public SEN
timent. Through scandal, blackmail, dis
honor and astounding tales of prison NAL
feasance, they have bravely stood their
ground. But they were not prepared to
defend q cowardly and brutal assassina-
ton.
Saturdays session of the Dreyfus trial
was extremely dramatic. The chief in
terest centered in the testimony Of Gen.
Mercier, former Minister Of War. His
evidence was expected by the anti
Dreyfusards to prove conclusively the
guilt Of the prisoner. In this 1t failed.
Gen. Mercier in concluding his state
ment said that IL he had not been con-
vinced Of the guilt Of Dreyfus he would
admit that he had been mistaken. Then
the most Sensational event Of the day
took place. Dreyfus, stung to the quick,
sprang to his feet and shouted, You
ought to say so now"
The courtroom was In an uproar. Cheer
after cheer rang out for Dreyfus, while
Mercier was cursed and hissed. Mr..
Casimir Perier, former President Of
France, told of his connection with the
case and demanded the right to confront
and refute the assertions Of Mercier.
The testimony given by the other wit
nesses was in the main favorable to
Dreyfus.
Upon the arrival Of M. Labori with
his family In Rennes, Just prior to the
opening Of the Dreyfus trial. he was
forced to pay exorbitant prices for apart
ments, so strong were the sentiments In
Rennes against the prisoner. He had
been warned that II was dangerous to
have his family there, as they might be
subject to attack, but he said he was OF
the opinion that having his family about
him would perhaps cause him to exert
more care than ordinary, under the alb
straction Of his legal duties.
