New Fact. Against Estcrhnxy.

4 fresh point in the Dreyfus case, re-
vealed in the court yesterday, is of the ut
most Importance. 1t has been discovered
that the bordereau was written upon the
same paper as that used by Major Ester
hazy. NJ de Beaupre disclosed that the
judges in 1894 did not know this. II they
had known it, it is not clear that, in Tiew
of the fearful prejudice existing. the fact
would have had an important bearing On
the action of the tribunal. Now, the dis
covery is most opportune.
Among the fresh points insisted upon by
the report of the Procurator General are
these: The Henry forgery, changing
the date of the bordereau from April to
August, contradicting the handwriting OF
the experts, Withholding the police re-
port by the court-martial, Lieutenant Col
onel Henry's fearful confession, and the
production of official documents showing
that Dreyfus never confessed guilt and had
no relations with foreign embassies.
A very notable circumstance OF the pro-
ceedngs before the Court of Cessation is
the paralysis that seems to have suddenly
stricken Dreyfus' enemies. 1T is the col
lapse OF our charges said the novelist
deputy Barres. This is prophecy as well
as a fact.

Peace With Spain.

Time was when Spanish Ministers to the
United States were not so amiabie in eX-
preston, and the people to whose govern
ment they were accredited were not so
pleasantly recipient as now. The due
dArcos, who. as everybody knows, we'd
ded a Washington lady, makes his entry
into the United States with diplomatic cor
diality My wife and are both very glad
to get this country once more said he
yesterday. upon his arrival in New York.
This linking OF himself with his American
consort, and the democratic way OF allud-
ing to her. were calculated to create ia
vorable impression. We forget the past, ="
added he. referring 10 Spain, "and look
now only to future relations. which, l
know. will be of the pleasantest.'
1t is certain that Spain did not err in
sending as her first minister after peace
had been restored a distinguished and able
diplomat, already known and esteemed in
America. And the fact that he had made
a marital choice at the Republics capital
will strengthen both his opportunities and
his achievements. The due d'Arcos comes
at a time when the resources of tact, gra-
ciousness, and good sense are most use
full, and he will find here among the Amer
lean people no lingering resentment and
no disposition to prolong Guarrels once
settled. His expression, I'VE forget the
past will doubtless be reciprocated in
the breasts and through the lips of a gen.
erous foe. The duke comes from a nation
once the greatest on earth. He comes to
a country whose citizens are in the front
rank of progressive freedom, whose ex-
ample is beacon light for the Old and the
New World. But of this he is well aware.
for he has learned it through his former
residence at this capital.
To the due d'Arcos as Spain's accredited
representative, the American people extend
the cordial right hand of friendship.

Volunteer Settlers in LuzOn.

The petition of four thousand volun-
teers now on service in the Philippines,
that they be mustered out there and al
lowed to settle in the county is matter
of the utmost Importance. These young
men. mostly pioneers by birth. for the ma
jority OF them come from States that were
frontier Territories a few years ago. de-
clare that the Philippines offer unusual
advantages to those who are willing to
take up life in a new country, and, in
short, they want TO stay.
This is the beginning of the end of our
colonial problem. Our proposing volun-
teer colonists state that if allowed to re-
main they will do duty in a local national
guard or other military or police organi-
zation, il required to do so, just as the
pioneer settlers of British South Africa
Australia, and such places volunteer in the
mounted police and organizations of that
character
Nothing could be more promising than
this volunteer settlement movement Luzon
is full of gold, and most Of these men come
from gold countries and know how to pros
pect for it. They. and others the devel-
opments they make will attract, will settle
the colonial question, just as the fathers
of these same volunteers have settled the
question OF white civilization on the Pacific
slope.
We are pleased that the Government
will accede TO the wishes of these soldiers.
The authorities would be foolish not to do
so, since the movement offers at once the
nucleus of an American colony and an
American local militia. The Philippines
are so distant that colonization in the Or
binary way would be slow: but if Congress
were to pass a law giving short-time vol
unteers grants of land in the archipelago,
the chances are it could get about million
of them for the asking. Hurrah for the
Dewey colony!

wnr Corre.nondents.

Some War Department official or other
has been giving the New York Evening
Post" correspondent a rather discouraging
view of the war correspondent question.
from a military standpoint. The official
says that he will not go quite as far as
Lord Woiseley and say that war cores
pondents are ''the pests OF modern ar
mics" but he is satisfied that generals in
the field would find it easier to conduct
operations If the burden Of the yellow man
, were not continually on their backs; that
the newspaper staff is often. unintentional-
ly of course. a bureau of intelligence for
the enemy. and so on. .
We can understand that war correspond
ents may indeed be source of annoyance
and anxiety to commanders during an act
i've campaign. although as far as we know
nobody likes better to read of his splendid
achievements under scare-head lines than
do most of the generals who complain aft
er hostilities have ceased and there Is no
further danger of a roast in the editorial
columns. AS matter of fact the history
of two wars is full of instances where ia
nous soldiers have been careful to carry
their press aides with them wherever glory
waited.
When, however. it comes to a War De-
partment conducted as ours was during
the Spanish war, 1t is easy to see that war
correspondents must be regarded as Alto
gether Objectionable in such a quarter. But
for the war correspondents it is doubtful

Was Ii Yellow Jack:

Some difference of opinion exists as to
whether the lady who died in New Or
leans last Sunday had had yellow fever.
The State Board of Health gave notice.
in accordance with agreement, to several
other boards that an autopsy showed that
the person in question, Miss Grillo. had
been afflicted with the disease. AS she
was also sick with tuberculosis the
New Orleans Board expresses doubt OF the
! correctness of that conclusion.
The Texas health officer. having recefv-
ed the notification of the death, estab-
lished quarantine inspection camps at once
on the border points of every railroad en-
tering the State. He also notified the rail-
way authorities not to sell tickets from
New Orleans to any Texas place, and not
| to bring into the State any person or
thing, either by express or freight. from
the city of New Orleans
This action is exceedingly prompt. But
Yellow Jack is a most unwelcome visitor,
! and the experience of the last season in
New Orleans is itself a reminder that IAN
ounce of prevention is worth pound of
cure" In these matters promptitude is all
important. Nevertheless. the health au-
| thorities should be careful to do nothing
| beyond what is actually Necessary. and the
people themselves would do well to keep
their heads. Some Of the shotgun quar-
antines enforced in portions of the terri
tory subject to yellow fever infection have
been a scandal TO the American name.
1t is hardly necessary to remind the
readers of The Times that Washington is
above the yellow fever belt.

4 Call for Volunteers.

At last President Mckinley has bowed to
necessity, and a call for volunteers will is
sue Immediately. General Otis has assured
the War Department that he must have
more troops if the Tagal mutiny is to be
quelled and American authority established
in the Philippine archipelago. As it will
take at least three months TO organize the
provisional army provided for by law and
get il ready for the field, it is evident that
no time can be wasted By the war authori-
ties.
We are afraid that even after making up
his mind to call for volunteers. Mr.. Nc
Kinley will halt short Of his full duty in
the premises. We are fearful that he will
not ask for the full number OF thirty-flve
thousand men which he is entitled to en-
pioy This would be sad mistake, for
every unit of that force will be required for
the Job in hand. and he would better get
them out and at work all at once. Nothing
short of an army large enough TO crush the
rebels and fully occupy all the territory 1t
will be necessary to cover will do the least
good. The country will back the President
in calling for the last man he can legally,
and he should not hesitate for moment
TO do exactly that.

PREACHERS HAVE A FIGHT.
A Lutheran Minister Accuses An
other of Choking Him.

Reading. Pa, May 31.-The final session
of the Lutheran Misisterium was held last
night. The most exciting even. of the
convention occurred near the close in 4
personal dispute between Rev. Philip La
chan. pastor OF St. Paui's Church, the
largest and most prominent German Lu-
theran Church IN Philadelphia.
The trouble grew out OF the report of
the committee to whom was referred an
appeal TO Rev. Lamordin for the decision
OF the Philadelphia German Conference.
The committee reported that il could ef-
feet no reconciliation. Rev. Mr.. Lamordin
was permitted to make statement, after
which Rev. Mr.. Uischan made a most
scathing reply. He accused Lamordin of
having provoked strife In his church. while
temporarily in charge during Wischan's
absence in Europe. and that subsequently
he was choked by I.amordin in a personal
encounter.
To this Lamordin replied that Rev. Wis
chan had perverted the truth. Rev. o. r.
Wage interrupted the acrimonious dis
cussion by saying: This dirty business
should have been kept away from here
The report of the Jubilee Fund Commit
tee was presented during the day. This is
a fund of $3.50. 600 in commemoration of
the 150th anniversary of the founding of
the ministerium, celebrated last year.
Following amounts have been raised:
Allentown Conference, nearly $4,000;

passed.
President Seip. Of Muhlenberg College.
made the announcement that he was the
recipient Of $1,000 from friend. whose
name he could not reveal. for the estab-
lishment of perpetual scholarship for
some worthy but INDECENT young men at
the college.
The reports Of the presidents Of confer
ences were considered, and the various
items disposed of.

A Card From Judge Curtis.

To the Editor Of The Times:
The article in your paper of yesterday
morning, stating that Judge Curtis, OF
Iowa, Of the Insular Commission. submit
ted a separate report embodying his indi-
vidual views on certain questions has Just
been called to my attention.
This statement is wholly without foun-
dation. / have not submI-tc1 minority
report and have no minority differ
ences from the Commission. There has
been but one report submitted and that
is signed by the three Commissioners. So
far, in all questions which have come be-
fore the Commission for consideration my
views have been fully in accord with those
of my colleagues.
So far as l know. no committee repre-
senting the bar of Porto Rico has either
been formed or report sent to the Presi-
dent The only protest in this regard was
by one individual who. up to this time, has
had the selection of the judges. and who
would naturally prefer to retain it. and
who anticipated that the report Of the
Commission would be on different lines. 1t
is sufficient to say that this gentleman does
not have the sanction of the bar Of Porto
Rico. Very respectfully.

The New Dinsno.i. of Disease.
From the New York Tribune)

(From the New York Tribune.)
Two fields. at least, of explanation made posi-
bic by the fuorescence of vacuum tubes, have
been recently entered, and give promise of note
worthy results. One Of these is the examination
of lung tissue in the case Of consumption-the
healthy lung gives comparatively little shadow in
the sciograph, while the diseased tissue has a
much darker appearance in the picture, and thus
it is possible to ascertain exactly the part af-
fected, and to attempt palliative or remedial
treatment accordingly. The other recent of
this discovery, regarded as especially valuable
by the medical profession. is that Of observing
the movements Of the stomach and its contents
in the preliminary digestive process. BY mix
ing sIbnitrate of bsmuth, which is said to be a
harmless powder, with the food, the movements
of the stomach may be seen by means OF the
