AsME. PALS MADE DENIALs.
Renhud Told What Dreyfus Said
About the Papers.

Paris, April 19.-The Figaro continuing
to-day its publication Of the testimony Of
fered before the Court of Cessation in the
-Dreyfus revision -inquiry, prints the depo-
sitions OF Nine. Pals Capt. Lebrun Re
maud and host of minor personages.
Nine. Pals gave a series of denials to
almost all the statements made concern
ing her which tended to criminate Ester
hazy She denied writing the 'Speranza"
telegram and said she had never seen De-
Boisdeffre, Gen. PelliuX or Gen. Mercier.
She declared herself ignorant of the au-
thors of the bordereau and therefore could
not, as had been alleged, have revealed
their names.
Capt. Lebrun Renaud, who had charge
of Dreyfus at the time of his degreda-
tion, described an interview with him.
Dreyfus, he said, at first protested inno-
cence, insisting that he mad splendid fu-
ture before him; adding.
'I am innocent. In years my innocence
will be recognized. The minister knows
it, Col. du Patty de Cam came to see
me a few days ago, and told me the min
lister and others were aware that if 1 de-
livered documents to Germany they were
not important. and had the object of OBJ
tanning ones in return
Capt Lebrun Renaud then related how
he had repeated the words of Dreyfus to
numerous officers. The next day he re-
peated them to Gen MERCER and to NJ.
du Patty de Clam, who took him to Presi-
dent Casimir-Perier. The latter question
ed him (he witness) regarding his indis-
cretions 20 journalists. The witness de-
MED on that occasion speaking to report
ers, but he admitted that perhaps he had
spoken in their hearing. Gen. Mercier
and NJ. du Patty then, in the presence Of
witness, prepared note for the Havas
agency, adding that he had had no COM
munication with reporters.
Gen. Barras, who commanded the parade
at the execution of the sentence, testified
that when the judgment was read, Drey-
fus exclaimed: II am still worthy to be-
long to the army. Vive Parmee! Vive la
Francew
Barras said he had heard no other words
from him during the ceremony of degra-
dation.

Pennsylvania May Get Along With
One Senator for Two Years.
Harrisburg, Pa, April 19-The great
battle for United States senator ended to-
day without an election, and unless Gov.
Stone calls an extra session, at which
there should be an election, Pennsylvania
will have only one representative in the
United States Senate during the next two
years.
After the taking of ballot in joint con-
vention motion was offered by Mr. Fow,
Democrat, of Philadelphia, and adopted,
that vote of thanks be rendered the Off
GERS, and that the convention adjourn sine
die. The legislature will adjourn finally
at noon tomorrow.
There was no change in the days vot-
Ing, the friends of ex-senator Quay stand
ing by him and the ant-Quay Republi-
cans by B. F. Jones of Pittsburg, while
the Democrats cast their vote for George
A. jerks, who has been their candidate
since the deadlock began.
The senatorial contest began on JAN II.
On that day Senator Quay received his
highest vote. 112 senators and representa-
tves casting their ballots for him. This
was thirteen less than the number neees-
sary to a choice, and he never came nearer
an election during the more than three
months Of the struggle.
No such bitter political contest has
probably ever before been waged in this
country. The fight has been distinctly on
quay and anti-Quay lines, and both
SIDES had numerous representatives here
at ali times keeping close watch on the
members and on each other. Both sides
promise that the contest for supremacy
VIII De carried into every county in the
state and waged necessarily until final su-
premacy is assured.

Insurgents Are Not Severe on Amer
lean Prisoners.
washington, April 19.-The navy depart
nent having requested a correction of the
portions of Admiral Dewey's dispatch of
yesterday which were not decipherable.
was to-day able 10 furnish the full text
of the dispatch, which is as follows:
Manila, April 1S.-Secretary of the
Navy, Washington: The Yorktown visited
Baler, Luzon, east coast of Luzon, P. l..
April 70, for the purpose of rescuing and
bringing away Spanish forces consisting
of eighty soldiers, three officers and two
priests, which were surrounded by 400 in
surgents. Some of the insurgents, armed
with Mauser rifles as reported by natives.
Lieut. J. C. Gilmore, after making an ex-
animation of the mouth of the river in an
armed boat, was ambushed, fired upon and
captured. Fate unknown, as insurgents
refused to communicate afterward."
(Iere follows list of missing).
The officials of the navy department are
confident that such of the men of the
Yorktown as escaped being killed outright
in the first ambuscade will be well treated
by the insurgents.
Sometime ago the war department made
inquiry as to the number of American
prisoners held by the Fllipinos In reply
Cen Otis referred to Two such soldiers,
and said that they were being fairly treat
ed by the insurgents, he supplying funds
to defray the cost of their food.
The reports made to the navy depart
ment by Paymaster wilcox, one of Dew
ey's officers who made a trip across the
island of Luzon from Manila to the north
coast, described the condition of the Span
ish officials who were the prisoners of the
insurgents, as very comfortable. In many
cases he said, the officials were only nom
inaly in confinement, being allowed the
liberty of the towns.
The officials are hopeful that Gilmore and
his men who survived the ambuscade will
in some way regain their liberty.
The department has sent no instructions
TO Admiral Dewey as TO the course he shall
pursue, believing that he is fully compe-
tent TO deal with the situation and resting
secure in the assurance that he will spare
no efforts to rescue Gilmore and his men
If they are alive.
