NO GREAT DANGER
Of the Hurricane Reaching
the Southern Coast of
the United
States.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-At 9:30
o'clock the weather bureau had not re-
ceived any advices from Nassau, which
is regarded as the key to the situation,
so far as the hurricane in the West In
dies is concerned.
Reports from other points early this
morning are more encouraging than
those of yesterday and it is hoped that
the hurricane will not reach the Unit
ed States coast.
AS soon as Nassau Is heard from the
bureau will quickly bulletin the in
formation for the guidance of vessels
along the southern coast.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Acting
chief Williams of the weather bureau
1t noon today issued the following bull
letin:
"The hurricane center ia apparent

REDUCED RATES FOR CARNIVAL
The Committee was Assured That
the Railroad Companies Mould
Make a Cheap Rate-A Meeting
to Be Held This Afternoon.

Frank Powers and U. S. Stewart, the
two gentlemen elected by the prelimi-
nary committee of the Carnival asso-
citation, to call on all the local railroad
agents in regard to reduced rates to
the carnival to be held here, report
satisfactory progress.
The represen tatives of the various
companies said they would lay the mat
ter before their people, and felt no hes
itancy in saying that the reduced rates
would be made, and they would do
everything they could to bring the
people to Ell Paso.
A rate for ten dollars for the round
trip will likely be charged from Dallas,
Fort Worth and San Antonio, and per-
haps it may apply from all points in
Texas.
Frank Powers says that anything
over ten dollars from these points
would not do at all and if they are to be
in excess, they had better not at
tempt getting.up the carnival. ''To get
the people to come here the railroads
must put the fare down at a pretty
low fgure.''
There will be a meeting of the com
mittee this afternoon at five O'Clock in
the Office of Judge Frank Hunter.
AT this meeting an executive COM
mittee will be appointed and the work
for raising the subscriptions will be
mapped out and more extended plans
formulated.

A NEW RAILROAD
To Extend From MorenCi To Gutf-
rie, ArlZOna.-The Cobre Grande
Seems Destined To Rival The Fa-
nous An6c0uda

nous Anaconda.
A railroad is soon to be built from
Morenci, Arizona to Guthrie, q point
on the Arizona and New Mexico rail-
way.
The road is projected by the Detroit
Copper Company and Locating Eu-
gineer w. Nj. WambauRh Is now on
the ground running the line. He has
just returned from running the line for
the extension of the Arizona and
Southeastern railway from Naco. Ari-
zOna, to NacOsari, where the plant of
the Moctezuma Mining company is to
be situated.
The mining company has just bsuled
70 carloads OF costly machinery to it's
mines. The copper properties are
owned by Phelps, Dodge & Co., of New
York. and are extremely valuable.
The CObre Grande Mining company,
located in the Cannaueh mountains, s.
miles southeast of Neca has lately
changed hands, J. 81. CASTILLO, of Buff
falo, New York, obtaining control
ling interest for $3.50. 600 in cash. This
property it is believed, will rival the
great Anaconda.
Previous to the time the S. p COM
pany acquired the New Mexico and
Arizona railway which connects Ben
son and NOgales, large sums of money
were paid out each year to repair the
damage done by washnut but owing
to the reconstruction of the entire line
and the erection, subsequently, of iron
bridges across all cauOns, not over 5000
has been paid out this year for repair
ing flood damages.

EXPECTED
When Casimir-Perier 7 estifies
At the Dreyfus
Trial.
MERE WOODEN DOLLS
Is the Expression Used by
Max Nordeu in De-
scribing the Court
Judges.

RENNES, Aug. 1.-THE examination
of the secret dossier was finished by
the Dreyfus court msrtiel after q two
hours session this morning.
Tomorrow is the second public session
and it ia believed that it will be the
most important day of the trial, as it
will test the strength of the prosecu-
tion.
Former President Casimir-Perier
and possibly General Mercier will tes-
tify.
Rumor has it that Casimir-Perier,
as the result of late investigations has
batch of new evidence to submit,
compromising leading general.
Max Nordeu, who is here for the
trial, said to your correspondent today:
81 have. telegraphed to Berlin for
evidence TO dispose of the statement
which will be made by a witness at the
trial, that on the day Dreyfus was
taken into custody a note was sent from
the palace at Potsdsm in the en-
peror's handwriting referring ito that
spy Dreyfus.'
1.-The judges here are mere wooden
dolls, but they will acquit Dreyfus.
The latter ia sick man now, going
only on his nerve. He will go entirely
to pieces after the ordeal is over"
WILL BE SHOT
PARIS, Aug. 1l.-Military men be-
lieve that if Dreyfus is again found
guilty he will be shot, because he has
acquired such valuable information as
animation of the secret dossier that it
is imperative to prevent the chance of
his using it,

APPEAL FOR AID
One Hundred Thousand People In
Porto Rico Destitute.

One Hundred Thousand People In
Porto Rico Destitute.
NEW YORK, Aug. ia dispatch
to the evening Journal from Ponce,
Porto Rico, says:
1t is now plain that Ponce was the
greatest sufferer in Tuesdays hurri-
| cane, the rivers Portuguese and Canas,
which flowed through the city drown
ing thousands of people. Five hundred
bodies have already been recovered.
An eye witness who was on top of q
large stone building in Alhambra
plaza saw the bodies of men, wo-
men and children floating in the water
in the streets. Every one was para
lyzed with fear and unable to render
any assistance.
The southern coast was swept clean
IS far as Yauco, eighteen miles.
The towns of Tallaboa and Joan
Diaz were destroyed. Only a large
church edifce was left standing.
The storm of 1867 killed 5000 peo-
pie. and it is feared the number of
deaths caused by the recent storm is
greater.
There is not q drop of water in
Ponce to drink. The cisterns are full
of salt water from the ocean, and the
stencil arising from the dead bodies is
dreadful.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 1.-THE follow
ing is Roots appeal to the mayors of
all cities in the United States having
a population of Is 900 or more, for as
sistance to the destitute Porto Ricans:
To the Mayor Of
Sir:-The governor general of Porto
Rico confirms the report that upon the
oth instant, hurricane swept over the
island, entirely demolishing many of
the towns, destroying many lives and
reducing, so far as he can estimate, not
less then 100, 900 of the Inhabitants to
the condition of absolute destitution,
without homes or food. Unless i'm
mediate and effective relief is given
those unfortunate people will perish
of famine.
Under9these conditions, the presi-
dent deems that an appeal should be
made to the humanity of the American
people. 1t is an appeal to their pa
sriotism, also, for the Inhabitants of
Por to Rico have freely and gladly sub
mitted Themselves to the guar dianship |
of the United States and have volun- |
tarily surrendered the protection of !
Spain, to which they were formerly en-
titled: confidently relying upon more !
generous and benefcient treatment at :
our hands.

Frankfort. KY, Nov. 25.-The court
of appeals will render a decision today
in the Nelson county contested cleo
ton case, in which LBS votes, err
rOneously certified for Wv. P instead
of wv. s." Tayler are involved. The
lower court granted mandatory order
for the county election officers and the
case appealed and argued before the
whole court yesterday afternoon by

The decision will have an important
bearing on the final settlement of the

embrace a full review not only of the
scope of jurisdiction of the courts. but
also as TO the powers of the state elec-
ton commission. The latter body has
set no time for its meeting officially
to canvass the returns. but il is under
stood a meeting will be held for that
purpose either Tuesday or Wednesday.
