CUIGNET's EVIDENCE

PARIS, August eO.-AccOrding to the
Echo de Paris, Rs a consequence Of
Captain Culguet's evidence, General
Chamoln. who took the war office secret
dossler to Rennes, has started sudden
ly for Paris.
The Echo de Paris. in commenting
upon the testimony offered at Rennes
yesterday by Captain cuignet, the for
mer attache Of the ministry OF war, to
whom was assigned last year the task
Of collecting matter bearing upon the
Dreyfus, PlcquaFt and EsterhaAy at
fairs, says:
Captain Cuignet's evidence shows
that the whole secret dossier has not
been communicated to the court-mar-
tIal. A document has been withheld
which proves the existence of a vast
network of espionage, under the dlrec-
tlon Of foreign military attaches and of
negotiations on the subject of the
Dreyfus case between several French
notabllltIes and the representatives OF
foreign powers.
The dossIer, moreover. contains
proofs that the sum Of s5,Ooo,oOo francs
was received in France from abroad fot
the purpose Of prosecuting q prO-Drey-
fus campaign"

CHICAGO, August 2o.-Jacob Gould
schurnan, United States commissioner
to the Philippines, arrived In Chicago
to-day from the islands from which he
has Just completed a six months study
at the instance OF President Mckinley.
He left tonight for his home in Ithaca,
New York, and will report to tho Pres
ident as soon as a meeting can be ar
ranged.
In an interview he said: $50 far as
the results OF my official negotiations
with the representatives Of Agulnaido
or other Filipino officers are concerned,
1 am not at liberty to talk until have
made my report to the President. Con-
corning the Islands In general, however,
there is much to be told. In my opin-
ion the rebellion, the last Of which We
nre trying to suppress, was due in the
first place to several causes, the prin-
cipal OF which was the tyranny Of some
of the religious orders, the exercise Of
arbitrary power by the governor gen.
erals and the delay and corruption Of
justice.
"The leaders OF the rebellion tell their
followers the most astounding tales OF
the Americans, and the common people
believe that the priests, under Ameri-
can rule, would subject them to the
same tyranny. That the American
army killed priests or otherwise mall
treated churohmen or church property,
is, l believe, utterly without founda-
tlon.
"Aguinaldo is believed in the islands
to be honest, and I think that no ID
acting honestly In money matters, but
whether from moral or political ren-
sons, / would not say. While do
not care to discuss the real motives
behind the rebellion at this time, will
say that If 1t were suppressed there
would be many prominent native otti-
cIals out of an occupation"

SAVANNAH, GA, Aug. 2O.-Tho
steamship Kansas City, which reached

had a thrilling experience in the West
Indian hurricane. The ship encounter
ed the storm of Cape Hatteras and bat
tied with 1t for two days, Captain
Fisher said 1t was the severest storm he
had ever encountered. The ship was
driven 100 miles to seaward. The sa-
loon was flooded with water. The pas
senEers were wet, bedraggled and sick
and some Of the women were hysterlcal.
Most of the passengers kept in their
state rooms and those on the upper deck
were unable to get out The ship roll
ed and lurched as the huge waves
struck her aud broke over her decks.
The doors and windows were bRttened
but every moment during the iiercest
of the storm It was feared that tho sky

waves through. At one time the danger
Of Are was added to the horror OF the
storm. Friday morning the electric
light wires set FIRE to the castings in the
NH companionway. The fire worked its
way along the casing to the main sa-
loon, The alarm was given Immediately
and the cali to quarters was sounded.
The storm was still at its height, but the
crew responded quickly and the fire was
suhdued,
All the casualties were to the officers
and crew. Captain Fisher was Injured,

SEATTLE Wash, August 9o-M.
Leon Bureau. OF Paris, formerly prI-
vate secretary to NJ. Labori, Is in the
city, a guest of DR.. Adriene Monod,
French vice consul. He said to-day
that the present trial OF Dreyfus Will
will result in his acQulttal. II a ver-
diet of guilty is returned, the court Of
cessation, the higher French authority,
will at once set 1t aside, and order
another court-martinl and 80 until he
is acquitted. The court of cessation
knows that French law is being juggled
by this military court, aRd there are
two grounds on which It could set aside
just such sentence: First. violation
Of the law, and second, abuse Of
power.
"When the court Of cessation sent
Droyfus back for a second trial." said
NJ. Bureau, "he was remauded on the
charge OF having been the RuthOr Oh
the bordereau. Now this is the only
thing he could be tried for, Instead OF
sticking to this, the court has permitted
witnesses to talk of his relations with
women and other outside matters,
which is directly a violation of the
French law. II some matter not con-
nected with the bordereau should come
up In the testimony proving Dreyfus'
guilt, this court-mnrtIal could not try
him. The court of onssation would have
to order now trial for the specific
purpose"
NJ. Bureau Bntd IT wns within tho
power Of the court Of casSution to hnve

there were but two things for the trib-
unai to DO; either adjudge him not
guilty or send him back for u new
trial. This latter proceeding was

HAVANA, August 2O.-El Heraldo
to-day publishes letter sent to Mayor
Lacoste by the editor and assistant ed
itor, Ricardo Arnauto and Augustus
cervantes, OF the recently suppressed
Reconcentrado, acknowledging that
their conduct Of the Journal was crimi-
nal, and asking to be given an oppor-
tunlty to reform. The letter says:
I'm order that we may rid ourselves
of the stigma Of criminals and fusitives
from Justice, we offer to bind ourselves
not to publish newspaper In Havana
Of any kind, not to insult any authors
ties and not to disturb public order. We
offer to undertake to live quietly and
honestly as good citizens. We hope you
will give us this chance, and suspend
the order Of arrest against us so long
as we do not break our pledges.
This letter was addressed to the
mayor, while the writer's were yet In
hiding and avoiding arrest. The mayor
says It was entirely voluntary, ana
that they were given the opportunity
sIrable that such Objectionable evidence
as would inevitably be given at the trial
should be published.
La Lucha, referring to the subject,
says:
"senor Lanuzo. the secretary Of JUS
tlce, was to blame for the Reconcen :
trado scandal. He ought to have In
terfered long before It became neces-
sary for the military authorities to In
tervene IN the public interests, but the
fact that he was overcome with fear
nj the mere thought Of taking judicial
action against the RecOncentrado."

BAcATE, Mexico, Via PoTANdAhI,
Mexico, August 2O.-The situation along
the Yuqui river from Mednno to TORN
has now reached its most critical per-
lod. The Indians have commenced
their passage to the Pitayn and Ba-
cate. The main body of the warriors
are reported to be in the vicinity south
OF Bacum. while the remainder OF them
are scattered throughout the woods as
far down the river as Medano In small
bands numbering from four or five to
fifty. General Torres entire field coHl-
mand is now Mt ChumampacO, four
miles above Torin, on the south side Of
the river.
The generals next move will be to
send out an advance column to favor
ite watering place OF the Yaquis. Other
detachments which win follow are In

miles OF woods along the river. II 10

the Yaquis well that this removal OF the
scene Of hostiiities to the mountains
will be more advantageous to the In
dians than to the troops, for It was in
these same hills that the unconquer-

government and killed something over
10000 soldiers In the war that ended In
the making OF the peace treaty Of 1891.
The totnl number Of soldiers now on
the Yaqul river is $500. About 900 Of
these are In the field and the rest sta

Don LORENZO, small steamer plying
between Potam and General Torres

WASHINGTON. D. c.. August 2o.-
The maps of the Philippines and espe-
cialIy OF that portion of the island OF
LuSon north and south Of Manila, which
has been prepared for the use of secre-
tary Root, may assume more import
ant part in the campaign than has been
given 1t heretofore. Secretary Root
has not only ascertained where the
United States troops are located and
has them nicely marked OF on the
map, but he has also taken into eonsid-
GRAFTON such information as can be OBJ
tained relative to the population Of the
adjacent country. the kind OF people
and their disposition toward the United
States. The secretary has also been
studying the lines Of transportation ana
learning what he can Of the geography
Of the country. It is believed that more
than one army can operate TO advant-
age in the Philippines and SUGGESTION
has been made by some army officers
that an army should start from diifer-
ent points and operating in such man
ner as to distract and destroy the Phlls
ipIno forces. At present the United
states forces do not occupy the line Of
railway half way to Lingayen on the
gulf OF the same name.
It has been suggested that Il one
force were to start from Liugayeu ana
move south at the samo time that an
other were moving north, there would
be very great probability OF soon Sc
uurinr the entire railway for the use of
the army and the insurgents would be
separated into divisions east and west
by the railroad as they are now divided
Into northern and southern bands. Be-
tween Angeles and Lingayen is TarlRe,
q town OF considerable size and situR-
ted In a province where the natives are
said to be not unfriendly to the United
States. II this province could be occu-
pied It might be OF great advantage to
the government.
While these are now merely suggea-
tions It may be that when the army In
the Philippines consists OF 10000 men
instead OF about twenty or twenty-five
thousand, 1t will be possible to have
four or more armies operating instead
OF two as during the last campaign. The
locations Of troops as marked by pins

Root, show the places occupied as fol-
