VERDICT OF THE COURT.
Dreyfus Case Must he Tried Before
Another Court. rtiaI.

PARIS, June 3.-The Court Of Cessation
to-day rendered a verdict in favor of re-
vision of the Dreyfus case and ordered a
new court-martial to sit at Rennes. sixty
miles from Nantes, for the trial of the
prisoner
Previous to the announcement of the ver-
dict crowds of people assembled at the
Palace of Justice and in its neiehborhood
awaiting the decision. Perfect calm pre-
vailed. The decision. which was pronounced
at $40 p. m. says the prisoner is to be re-
tried on the following question:
us Dreyfus guilty OF having in 1894 prac-
ticed Vaccinations or of having had COM
munlcation with foreign power or its
agents with the view of facilitating acts of
or having furnished the means therefor by
furnishing notes or documents retraced on
the bordereau.
The audience received the decision with
cries of ''vive la justice." "vive la Loie.''
When the doors of the court were opened
an immense crowd of people attempted to
rush through the entrance and for time
there was great confusion and uproar. The
session opersed at o'clock. when the presi-
dent of the court, NJ. Mazeau. after re-
minding the audience that all demonstra-
tions were interdicted. gave judgment In
the following tenor:

SPAIN MADE GOOD BARGAIN.
Received 25,OOO.OOO Pcsetas for Her
Pacific Island Possessions.


MADRID, June S.-Germany, it is an
nounced, pays 25.ooO, 900 pesetas for the Car
olnes, Palaos and Marianne islands. Spain
retains three coaling stations, one in each
group, and Germany undertakes to defend
these stations in case of war. Germany,
in addition, grants Spain the most favored
nation treatment in Germany and in the CO.
lonial islands.
WASHINGTON, June 3-The opinion here
is that Spain has made very good bargain
in the price she obtains for the Pacific
islands. The cash compensation is about
equal to the sum of $5,Go0.O0o in United
States money, which, it is believed would
alone be full compensation. But, in addi-
ton, the guarantees afforded by Germany
are regarded as extraordinary. The per-
mission to Spain to retain three coaling
stations and, above all, the undertaking to
protect these in time of war, are certainly
of great value. In fact, 1t is said the un-
dertaking to protect the coaling stations
for Spain may be regarded as in sense
committing Germany to an alliance with
Spain, for II is conceivable that to execute
the guarantee, Germany may be placed in
a position where she must go to war for
Spains sake.
The concession that Spain may enjoy IA
vored treatment in trade with Germany and
her colonies is said to be Of value so far
as the mother country is concerned, but OF
little Importance in respect to the colonies
o. Germany. Spain has never been able to
make any headway in trade with colonies
on even terms with Germany, and even
where she held sovereignty, as in the case
of the Carolines, German trade interests
took the lead. 1T is said at the State De-
partment our government is not in way
to be advised officially Of this transaction
until, perhaps, Ambassador White at Ber-
lin reports 1t to the department as an item
of information. The reason for this is the
transfer nominally concerns nobody but the
two parties to it; there being no dispute as
to the title of Spain and her right to make
transfer, and no questions as to spheres
of influence or any of the latter-day nice
ties of diplomatic meddling to warrant the
interference of third parties.
1t is said the United States might have
acquired the islands some time ago on prac-
tically the same terms Certainly as to the
Caroines, we might have had possession OF
Ualan. the pearl of the group. and perhaps
all of the islands in exchange for 81 900, ,o0t
|rcash and exceptional fta.se rights for Span.
ish trade in Cuba and Porto Rico. During
the peace conference at Paris the American
commissioners offered one million for Ualar
and the trade was under way, when It was
broken off through the additional demand
by Spain for favored treatment in trading
with Cuba and Porto Rico. These terms
correspond in measure with those de.
manded of Germany and, having declined
them ourselves. it is not believed we have
any right to object to the cession to an
other nation.

Regard the AcquisitiOn Of the Islands
as a Diploma tic Stroke.

BERLIN, June 3-The announcement OF
the cession OF the Caroline and other islands
to Germany met most favorable reception
here. The papers which commented ON 1t
laid stress upon the success of Germany's S
policy, which, 1t Is pointed out, accom-
plishes now what Prince Bismarck was un-
able to do in 1886. The arrangement, how
ever, requires the sanction Of the Reichstag,
which will fix the price.
A high official tells the correspondent here
of the Associated Press that the acquisition
of the Carolines is a valuable rounding OF
the German colonial possessions, at the same
time snjuring no other power, but rather the
contrary He added: THE negotiations be-
gan as soon as 1t became known that the
United States would obtain the Philippines.
The United States and Great Britain did
not raise any objections"
Officials of the United States embassy say
the United States government has been
kept informed of every step taken by Ger
many since the autumn and that German
ownership of the islands in no way interferes
with American plans and policy in that
quarter. 1t is reported in diplomatic circles
that Germany pays 100000 pesetas for the
islands.
Responding to statement of the London
Standard that the cession OF the Carolnes
is Germany's reward for diplomatic service
rendered by her to Spain, the Berlner Neu-
este Nachrichten says that the insinuation
is more than counterbalanced by the much
more reasonable utterances Of the Times
| and Morning Post regarding the cession.
| 1t adds that the assertion that Germany did
| not show equal honest neutrality to either
! side during the Spanish-American war. as
we'll as the untrue supposition that Ger
many had intended to acquire possession of
| the Philippines, or part thereof, have been
| refuted by the minister of foreign affairs,
| Baron Won Buelow, in his speech in the
| Reichstag, when he was applauded by all
| parties
The same old Bismarck organ. being also
| the organ of the German colonial party,
| looks upon the cession of the islands as a
| symptom of existence Of very friendly rela-
| tions between the United States and Ger
many.
| The Post, OF this city, a strong govern
mental paper. writing in similar strain,
| thinks the cession is "an indirect proof OF
| the restoration of the most cordial terms
| between the two countries, pointing out that
| a treaty by which Germany becomes a
neighbor to the United States in the Pacific
ocean would hardly have been concluded
| IL Germany had not been perfectly assured
| that the appearance of her flag In the Caro-
| line archipelago would not create any kind
| OF bad feeling in Washington" The ex-
tension of German sovereignty in the neigh
borhood of the Philippines, the Post also
says. is the best refutation OF the allega-
tions which have been made so persistently
/ and unsuccessfully as to the disturbance OF
| the good relations between the United
| States and Germany.
