that he suppressed documents tending

Mr.. Hobson then urges the desira-

the cost of docking is very high. He
adds:

plant capable of doing all the work of

The British government is undertake

Attention should be called, howev-

tablishment in this part of the Orient.
would necessitate the employment of
Chinese labor. This labor is not only
unlimited in supply, but it is equal to

DREYFUs AS coon AS FREE.
More Tragedies May Follow shooting
Of IIaitre LabOrt

/ Paris, Aug. 15.-(Special cable by
Joseph Reipach to the Chicago Rec
ord -Itis fortunate that this is y hol-
iday in France, for the French people
needed a space of twenty-four hours to
think over the events of the last few
days. Rennes also needed a pause TO
reflect. How many more crimes and
attempted assassinations will follow
the dastardly shooting of Labori if the
venomous excitement of the disap-
pointed enemies of Dreyfus shall not
come to an end speedily? All classes
have had a chance TO examine the tes-
timony of the famous five ministers,
testimony which has been so much
harped on by the nationalist party
demagogues.
In general. every fair-minded person
has arrived at the conclusion that am
other huge bubble, inflated with foul
air, has been exploded. Not one OF the
five former ministers of war said any
thing to show that Capt. Dreyfus was
not condemned on the hollowest SUR
mise; and remember. this seems to be
the persausion of the uniudicial mill
tary mind-Dreyfus, not the etat maj
or general statf). must prove inno-
cence; the witnesses must show his
guilt
What a travesty this must seem to
the rest of the civilized world! OF the
five ministers Gen. Mercier was the
| only one who pretended to present an
| orderly sequence of Prescriptions
| against Dreyfus. How utterly he fail
ed to establish anything you already
know. Gen. Billot showed himself a
co III FOL old fo1 RI IL,
his mistake by misconception Of the
duty involved by esprit de corps. Gen.
Chanoine drivelletl meaniDglessly;Gen
Zurlinden had nothing to present but
his convictions. and NJ. Cavaignac
showed himself not yet sufficiently hui
inflated by the memory of his famous
| speech before the chamber of deputies,
basing his belief in Dreyfus' guilt on
pure forgeries aud irrevelant. cooked
1 up documents. What he said before
! the coert-martial was the talk of an
| intelligent man wildly astray. No
| judge on earth would seriously con-
slider such testimony.
| What shall one say of the five min
listers? Perhaps the kindest thing one
could say would be that they have
gone astray through confidence in one
another's Judgment. The truest thing
one can say is that they are infatuat-
ed by an egotistic ideal of faithful
ness TO the army, not understanding
that in reality they are threatening
the very foundation stone of military
institutions. The latter cannot live
when based on cruel lies.
regard this failure Oil the part OF
/ the five ministers to say anything as
fatal to the anti-Dreyfusnrds' case.
Henceforth Dreyfus is free man.

Heavy Yield Of Oats

Marshalltown, Aug. 16.-rhrcshing
has been commenced on the farm of
Entop Estel, one and one-half miles
north of the city, and at least in one
particular oat field the yield is going
10 be exceedingly large. The grain is
in excellent condition for the harvest,
and according 10 the thresher measure,
is going to measure siNty-siN bushels
to the acre. This, of course. is a little
lighter than .he grain will actually
weigh out after harvest. and experts
at oat harvesting say they think the
field will yield fully seventy bushels
to the acre. Wheat on the same farm
also went large, yielding between
twenty-eight and thirty bushels to the
acre.

LIEUT.. HoBsoN MAKES A REPORT
Value Of spanish warsuips Raised at
Manila Placed nj S6IO.OOO.

Washington, Aug. 16.--Naval Con-
structor Richmond Pearson Hobson
was heard from by the navy depart
ment Monday for the first time. at
any length, since he was assigned to
duty in charge of the Spanish ships
raised from Manila harbor, and now
undergoing repairs at Hong Kong. His
report is unusually interesting, dealing
in general questions, such, as the need
of large door yard III; the Orient,
the increasing importance ST Manila,
which may succeed Hopg Kong as the
emporium of the east. the value of
Chinese labor. in all branches of in
dustry, etc. He also says the three
Spanish ships which are completed
will be worth to the government about
100000, and he contemplates' trying
to raise three more Spanish vessels
now at the bottom Of Manila Bay.
The letter is addressed to Rear Admit
raj Hitchborn, chief OF the bureau of
construction, and is dated at Hong
Kong, July II. He says;
"ln compliance with the bureaus di-
rections, enclose special report on
the raising and repairing of the Span
ish vessels sunk in Manila Bay. The
vessels under construction--lsla de
Cuba, Isla de LuZon and Don Juan de
Austria--are at about equal stages of
completion, which | estimate to be
about so per cent, compared with the
vessels fitted out ready for sea. The
batteries and electric plant, which
have not arrived, will doubtless be the
last items. ] estimate that the time
needed for the completion will be
about six weeks after the arrival of
the armament and electric plant.
i estimate the value of the vessels
when completed, exclusive of arma-
ment, to be about as follows:
.'Isla de Cuba-Hull, fittings and
outfit, 100000; machinery, $4,000; to-
tai, $215,000.
"Isla de Luzon-Hull. etc, $4,000;
machinery, $4,000; total, $215,000.
Don Juan de Austria-Hull, etc.,
$125,000; machinery, .$55,000; total,
$1sO,OOO.
Total estimated value of all three
vessels, $61O,0OO."
He then shows that the raising and
refitting has cost about S304, 900, max
ing net gain to the government on
the vessels of 100000. He gives the
credit for this result to Naval Con-
structor Capps, who made the con-
tracts.
Mr.. Hobson speaks of the good con-
dition of the vessels, and says:
This is particularly the case with
parts that remained completely sub
merged. Thus, the large engine parts
were scarcely injured at all.
This feature has ali important
bearing upon the wrecks still in Ma-
Mia Bay, which ] expect to examine
with divers when the Vessels now IA
hand are completed, The long period
they have been immerged may not
l.have seriously injured the principal
parts, and there may. be some advsn.

Manila. Aug. 16.A squadron of cav

by Captain Parker, while reconnoiter-

San Mateo. northeast of Manila, came
across 800 Filipinos, who opened fire on
them. The cavalrymen replied and
then charged.
The enemy, following their usual
tactics, took to flight, retreating into
San Mnteo. The Americans pursued
them, drove them and number of
other rebels out of town, and took pos
session of the place. The cavalry lost
two killed and fourteen wounded, while
the enemy lost twenty-five billed.
A party of troops under command of
Major Cronin moved through the
swamps on the west bank of the Mari

site San Mateo after Captain Parker
b captured the town. Major Cronin's
men will bivouac tonight where they
