FIGHTING THE FLAMES.

Forest Fire in South Dakota That
May Yet Get Beyond Control.
Deadwood, S. D., Aug. pa big fire
a been raging in the timber east of
this city in the Two-Bit district for the
past twenty-four hours. 1t has already
burned owe a considerable extent Of
territory and destroyed much valuable
timber. The country is very dry and
fears are entertained that the fire will
get beyond control. A force of sixty
range riders is fighting the onward ad-
vance. of the flames and it is hoped
they will subdue them sooh. 1t is also
reported that another fire has broken
out in the Spearfish division and that
a territory five miles square has al
ready been burned over.

Rennes, Aug. 27.-After NJ. Bertillon,
the handwriting expert who is at the
head of the anthropometric depart
ment Of the prefecture of police OF
Paris. had concluded the first INSTALL
ment of his so-called demonstration of
the guilt of Capt. Dreyfus, a prominent
Dreyfusard referred to him as the fin
de steele Cagliestro. The D~reyfusards
refused to regard him as anything put
the prince of quacks. They cover his
remarks with ridicule and protest that
the admission of fantastic theories as
evidence, before the court-martlal Is
a disgrace to France. Nevertheless the
D~reyfusards do not deceive them
selves MS to the effect NJ. Bertillon's
testimony or demonstrations may nave
upon the judges; who they fear may
be. gulled. by what the Dreyfusards
call shams. All the judges have passed
the Ecole Polytechnique, the highest
school of science in France, and they
are thus peculiarly interested in such
evidence as NJ. Bertillon's. Moreover,
with the diagrams and specimens? OF
writings which he submits to them
they may be able to follow his reason
ing intelligently, which: is more than
any member Of the audience could do.
If the Judges cccept Bertillon's pre-
mises-that Dreyfus, as an expert,
would. write no ordinary handwriting,
but a close imitation, contriving to
give the letters the impression of hay
ing been traced in order to be able. to
repudiate them as a forgery If detect
ed, the structure built upon this
groundwork may be scientifically cor
rect. Even Dreyfus, when shown
Bertillon's demonstrations, admitted
the ingenuity and plausibility Of the
system, though he naturally declared
that it was built upon a false basis. =.
The military witnesses, all of whom
sit in a bunch;' leave Col. Picquart: and
nj. .Bertullus severely isolated, fol
lowed NJ. Bertillon's statements with
a grave and wise expression Of coun-
tenance, upon which. never q sus-
picion. Of a smile OCCURRED, las though
they understood every word. Evident
ly they had received a mot dordre to
preserve this attitude, for, not having
seer the diagrams they, .could4not have
understood any! Better than did the.
general public. # !.
The Echo de Paris announces that
the counsel Of Dreyfus had obtained:
possession Of certain documents mem
toned in the bordereau in Esterhazy's
writing, which they will produce in.
court next week as q coup de theater.
The correspondent Of the Associated
Pres. :aouired as to this in competent.
Dreyfusard quarters. He was assured
stbe statement was erroneous, but was
also told the defense intended, in the
event Of Capt. Dreyfus being recon-
demned, to. ask the German govern
mcnt to communicate these documents
pra:ing his innocence, and that they
has raason to believe that sucn a re-
quest wlll be granted. '

MAY BE A HOAX.

Mysterioss Letter Connected With

Paris, Aug. %. = A dispatch from
Lyons says a bag a been; found in
the River Rhone, there, containing a
paper with this penciled inscription:
"Labori to Lorimier. Basic. Nothing
will lie done. .Dreyfus is innocent.
Voluntary suicide. Orders executed"
The bag was handed over to the police,
but no explanation in the matter has
been forthcoming. There is a posi-
bility that the letter is a hoax. Lori

secretary and he committed suicide at
