GIVES UP AT LAST.
VI. Guerin and His Companions Sur
render After Six Weeks
of Siege.

Paris. Sept. 20.-M. Guerin surren-
dered shortly after four o'clock this
morning. His companions were al
lowed to go free. Thus the six weeks
siege ended in sublimely ridiculous
style.
The plan was to attack the building
and arrest Guerin and his band. The
government had given him until four
o'clock this morning to surrender, and
had regular army to assault the fort
if he refused. Troops, municipal guards,
mounted and on foot, and policemen to
the number of nearly 1000 were dis
patched to Gordon all the streets within
a radius of quarter of mile of Fort
Chabrol
AT three am. NJ Guerin appeared at a
window and asked an hours respite to
make up his mind. declaring that he
would surrender then if his friends
were not arrested.
At AIS a. m. NM. Millevoye and Las
les issued from the fort with NJ. Guerin.
NJ. Cochefort advanced and arrested the
agitator and led him to a carriage, with
NJ. Millevoye and captain of the repub-
lican guards. The horses went at full
gallop along the Boulevard de Genta to
the police depot, where Guerin was
locked up. In the meantime Guerin's
companions, who had been waiting I'M
der the porch, advanced to surrender,
but the police told them they were free.
When Nj. Guerin's companions sepa-
rated they took coaches and were driven

The farmer looked curiously ut the

PROPOSAL OF FILIPINOS.
They Ofer to Open Negotiations
Looking to the Release of
American Prisoners.

Washington, Sept. 20.-Secretary
Root on Tuesday received a cablegram
from Gen. Otis that seemed to indicate
a weakening on the part of the insur-
gents in LuZon. 1t contained proffer
to deliver the American prisoners who
have been for so many months in the
hands of the insurgents, and also sought
permission to parley with Gen. Otis.
This cablegram was AT once taken by
Secretary Root over to the cabinet
meeting, and formed the main topic for
discussion at the beginning of the ses-
sion. However, upon reading the mes
sage carefully, its apparent Importance
seemed to diminish. Secretary Root
himself did not regard the matter as of
Importance at this time. He recalled
frequent efforts on the part of the in
surgents in the past to gain time at
critical moments by opening negotia-
tions, ostensibly with the object of max
ing peace, and he was not sure but this
last offer was something of the same
kind. However. the secretary was of
the opinion that it would fail to afford
Otis would receive any messenger and
listen to him and make answer to his
proposals, but this would not restrain
the military operations in the slightest
degree, and the American arms would
lose no ground, no matter how the ne
gotiations turned out.
While no names are mentioned in the
dispatch it is inferred that included in
the list of American prisoners to whom
the negotiations relate is Lieut.. Gill
more and the Is men of the Yorktown,
who were captured by the insurgents
on the east coast of Luzon; Maj. Rookie
Teller, who was captured beyond the
American lines one night shortly after
his arrival in the Philippines, and about
half a dozen private soldiers who have
been reported missing.

Is A FREE MAN AGAIN.
Cant. Dreyfus Is Pnrdoned and Leaves
Repnes at Once-Declares He VIII
indicate His Honor.

Paris. Sept. 21.-The council of min
listers decided Tuesday to pardon Drey-
fms, At three o'clock Wednesday morn
ing he left the prison at Rennes in
which he had been confined since his
return from Devils island and pro-
reeded To Ncrn. where he took train
bound for NaEtes. His departure was
completely unnoticed.
The Aurore publishes the following
declaration from former Capt. Dreyfus:
1.-THE government of the republic has
given me my liberty. But liberty Is nothing
TO me without honor. From to-day / shall
continue 10 seek PREPARATION for the fright
full judicial error OF which remain the vic
tim | wish France to know by definitive
Judgment that | am innocent. My heart
will only be al rest when there remains not
a single Frynrhman who imputes to me the
abominabe crime perpetrated by another
ALFRED DREYFUS."
The Journal Of1iciel publishes the de-
cree granting pardon to Dreyfus. In
report preceding the decree Marquis
de Galifet. minister of war, poiets out
that Dreyfus has already undergone
five years deportation, but that, as the
law does not assimilate his deporta.
ton with seven years solitary confine'
ment, the prisoner would have to un.
dergo ten years detention. The minis
ter also calls attention to the fact that
the health of the prisoner is seriously
compromised and that he would not be
able without great danger to undergo
prolonged detention. The report of the
war minister concludes thus:
The government will not have met the
wishes OF the country, which desires pacifi-
cation. If it does not hasten to efface all
traces of the painful conflict. 1t belongs to
you, NJ. le Presidente, by an act of lofty
humanity, 10 give the first pledge of the
work Of apptasement. which opinion de-
mands and the good of the republic COM
mandS"
There is nuch remark here on the
strange coincidence of the death of NJ
Scheurer-kestner. the first champion of
Ireyfus and to whom Dreyfus will vir-
tually owe his freedom, on the very day
the cabinet decided to pardon the pris-
oner NJ. Scheurer-Kestner's death was
sudden. He had been i'll during the
past few days, but il was not thought
mat his illness would prove fatal.
