PROUD OF THEIR BOYS.
North Dakota Will Do All Honor to
Her Returning Soldiers.


"The North Dakota boys have done
good service at Manila, but we have not
become hysterical about them, said
Senator Hansbrough last evening. The
senator is in st. Paul with a committee
of which he is chairman to arrange for
Transporting the North Dakota regiment
home. The others of the committee are
Congressman Spalding, of Fargo; Col.
Peake, of Valley City, and Judge Lauder,
of Wahpeton, representing Judge Pur-

1--WE have spent some time in comforting
with the traffic departments of the va
rious railroads." said Senator Hans
brough "but have arrived at nothing
definite yet. The regiment left Manila
July 81 and I had a telegram this even
ing from Adjt. Gen. Corbin saying that
the boys will be in San Francisco on
Aug. 81. They will be mustered out on
the coast according to their own choice.
1--WE Dakotans are not a hystericaI
people, although we are proud of our
boys. We are going to honor them on
their arrival in a most enthusiastic wayt
There is to be no effort made, however,
to concentrate the regiment. We intend
simply to bring them to the state and
drop them off at their home towns.
am in hopes that today a reasonable rate
will be offered by some one of the roads.
The rest of the committee went to Min
neapolis this afternoon and returned to
their homes from there"
The committee conferred with General
Passenger Agent F. T. Whitney, Of the
Great Northern, and Vice President Ham
naford, of the Northern Pacific. Both
seemed disposed to offer the best possible
rates, but were unable to make any
definite statement off hand.

Col. John S. Cooper, of Chicago, who
mas oeen the most prominent advocate Of

a few hundred acres out of that immense

APPEAL FOR AID,
Secretary OF War Root Urges Sue
cor of Porto Rtcans.

cor of Porto Ricans.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE war de-
partment today took prompt measures
for the relief of the hurricane sufferers
in Porto Rico. When the press dispatches
and Gen. Davis advices made known the
extent OF the disaster, steps were imme-
diately taken to send supplies, and the
transport Mcpherson was ordered put in
readiness to sail from New York on Mon
day next. She will carry rations and 9TH
er necessaries. Secretary of War Root
this afternoon sent the following appeal
to the mayors of all cities of more than
900 population:
Sir: The governor general of Porto
Rico confirms the report that upon the
Sth inst. hurricane swept over that is
land, entirely demoIishing many of the
towns, destroying many lives and reduc-
ing, so far as he can estimate not less
than 10000 of the inhabitants to the con-
diIion of absolute deStitution without
homes or food Unless immediate and
effective relief is given, these unfortun-
ates will perish of famine.
Under these conditions the president
deems that an appeal should be made to
the humanity of the American people. It
is an appeal to their patriotism, also. for
the inha bitants of Porto Rico have freely
and gladly submitted themselves to the
guardianship of the United States and
have voluntarily surrendered the protec-
ton Of Spain, to which they were for
merly entitled, confidently relying upon
more generous and beneficent treatment
at our hands The highest considerations
of honor and good faith unite with the
promptings of humanity to require from
the United States generous response to
the demand of Porto Rican distress.
'"This department has directed the i'm
mediate distribution of rations to the suf-
ferers by the army in Porto Rico, so far
as 1t is within the power Of the executive,

was manifestly in the best spirits. and he
even submitted good-naturedly to the
snap shots" of the English CORE
spondents.
When, few minutes later, Maitre De-
mango disappeared behind the prison
door just as Nine. Dreyfus was driving
home, he did not look at all as if he were
going to a condemned mans cell.
CAUSED A SENSATION.
The London Times statement or
Lieut.. Col. Henrys treason caused
considerable of a sensation here. and wos
much discussed among the newspaner
men and all others interested in tha
trial. The affirmation of Henry that Es-
terhazy was his accomplice is onlv
confirmation of what has already rnanv
times been stated. But what was re.
garded as important is the fact that the
Times announced it in such catapor,caI
terms, demonstrating, according to the
views of the friends Of Dreyfus here. that
the Times people have actually seen docn-
ments, submitted to them by more than
one foreign military attache, presenting
the strongest proof Of Henry's guilt. and
moreover, that this announcement con
only prelude the publication by the Times
OF the actual documents. The corre-
spondent here of the Associated Prees
spoke to Maj. Forzinetti, who was gov
ernor Of the Cherche-Midi prison during
Dreyfus' Incarceration there and wbo
was cashiered on account of his declara-
t1ons favorable to Dreyfus' attitude while
In prison. Forzinetti said:
The Times statement confirms NV o1,,
view l was convinced of Henry's com
pllclty from the very first, and always
regarded him as the real cuIprit.''
Regarding the court-martial, he said.
Tomorrow will undoubtedly be tho
most important day of the whole pro-
ceedlngs, as Gen. Mercier ana M. Cast
mir-Perier former president of Franoe1
II time admits, will be confronted, and a
most dramatic scene is inevitable. as
their declarations in certain matters diff
fer in essential points,

Run of New York Yacht Club Spoiled
by Poor Weather.


by Poor Weather.
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. 1.-THE
run of the New York Yacht club fleet
from Vineyard Haven to this port today
proved the most unsatisfactory of the
cruise, and, as far as racing was con-
cerned was well nigh fizZle. All day
the yachts wrestled with typical dog-day
conditions, winds from all quarters and
at all velocities, interspersed with calms
rain, sunshine and fog, and it was the
boat carrying a mascot who won in her
class. Columbia was one of these, and
for the second time in the cruise, she
beat Defender by many miles, because Of
the shifting breeZes and calms-in fact
so far ahead was the new boat at the
finish that Defender gave up entirely and
did not round one of the marks, the
Vineyard sound Hghtship.
At one time during the day, about
noon, it looked as if Defender had the
mascot and might win, for she got a fine
Shift of wind and left Columbia becalmed
two miles astern. But this seemingly
fortunate shift proved Defenders undo
ing, the breeze leaving her entirely when
off Tarpaulin cove, five miles from the
start, and she lay there two hours, while
her rival further out in the sound, pick
ed up a nice southwest breeze and made
the gain that effectually put Defender
out of the race Columbia was out be-
yond Cuttyhunk before Defender was
moved, over ten miles astern.
But Columbia had hard time getting
out to the lightship, five miles further
off. and did not round it until PIP. Then
she fioundered about in another calm for
half an hour, until at last she caught a
northeast breeze out of Buzzard's bay
that took her to the finish line. She pass
ed one side of Cuttyhunk island as De-
fender was going by the other, beating
out of Vineyard sound with a southwest
breeze, while Columbia. three miles away
over the island, was beating in against
northeast wind. Columbia crossed the
finish line about o'clock, with Defender
