Its Discussion.

Washington, Sept. S-Ihe Cabinet
meeting today was devoted almost en-
tirely to discussion of the local govern
ment which will be established in the
Philippines ON the cessation of hOstili-

ter much thought and his views as eX-
pressed at the meeting today were re
ceiyed with approval by all of the mem
bers present He pointed out that sys-
tenn of government which would be suit
ed to the people of Luzon, would hardly
do for some of the other islands, where
the inhabitants were far less advanced.
n member of the Cabinet in speaking Of
the matter said that Secretary Root dis
played Il broad craftsmanship and Il
knowledge of the social and economic
conditions of the islands.

GEORGIA JUST MISSED IT
THE EVENT WON BY HER THREE
TIMES BEFORE.
OTHER MATCHES WON BY THE GEoRGIANS
A Claim of Grave Discrepanci Between the
Scores Recorded and the Hits lndica-
ted on the Target Inyestiga-
ton to be Made.

New York, Sept. S.-The last AMI one
of the most important Of the team
matches at Sea Girt, \ j., was finished
today. 1t was the Inter state Military
Match and was won by the Distr' ct II
Columbia team in a sensational flash.
Dickey, the last man to shoot on the
District of Columbia team, tired the
last shot of the match. Georgia had
finished with a total for both ranges of
1,0O6. The District of Colunbi;; team
had 1,001 and Dickey's sho- had to be
bulls eye to tie the score. He made
it and then the spectators broke loose
and 'cheered Dickey and the District of
Columbia team until they were out of
breath. As Dickey's shot tied the score,
the match was awarded ON the highest
aggregate team score made at the 900
yards. Georgia had made 501 ut that
range and District of Columbia 507, So
the District Of Columbia won the match.
1t was the closest score ever shot in lie
Interstate Military Match since he
establishment of the event. In 1897,
1896 and 1895 this event was won by
Georgia.
Each member of the winning team
received handsome medal
The Georgia men have lost both of the
biggest team events, the one shot today
and the Hilton Match yesterday. both
of which they have won several times,
but they won the other big event, the
company team match.
In the last stage of the Hilton Match
yesterday, the Georgians asked for II
representation in the pit. This request
was not granted. When the New
Jersey team began to rum mp their
wonderful score several Georgians de-
clared it was impossible to make the
high scores that the New Jersey team
did under the conditions Sof the day.
Last night a number of Georgians
unaccompanied by a range officer, visit
ed the pits with bicycle lanterns to eX-
anime the target used by the New Jer-
sey team. They returned hate in the
evening and claimed to have discovered
grave discrepancies between the scores
recorded and the hits indicated on the
target. This morning Lieutenant Col
onel Brooks and Inspector of Rifle Prac-
tice Colonel Cam, of Georgia, and Gen
eral Harries, of the District of Column
bia team, visited General Spencer, the
executive officer ofsthe meeting, and told
him they had heard some of the rumors
about errors in the scoring ON the New
Jersey target, but they assured him they
believed that neither he nor the man
agement would countenance any discrlm-
ination. They made no protest on the
match. The target used was removed
from the pits today, and an investigation
will be made by General Spencer.
At the close Of today's shooting in the
Presidents Match for individual cham
pionship T.. c. Wilson, of Georgia, led
with 1S1.
The Department of Rifle Practice
Match, open only to inspectors of rifle
practice, was won by Postell, of Geor-
gia.
The carbine team match, five men
teams, open to United States and For
eign cavalry organizations, was won by
the first team of the First Georgia
cavalry, Troop B.

NJ Demange then protested against
the suggestion that it had been attempt
ed to put Esterhazy ON trial, explaining
that all the defense desired was that
the innocence of Dreyfus should APP
pear, dazzling and complete, and that
the court martial should proclaim it.
Counsel was satisfied that the judges or
1894 were honest, like the present
judges. But, if the former had seen
Esterhazy's handwriting they would
have pronounced a different verdict.
Counsel then entered into details,
dealing with the information collected
regarding the prisoner in 1894. He
said
THE only real information is that
found in the cries from his soul Even
before his conviction, what was his first
cry:

NJ. Demange dilated on the prisoners
increasing protestations of innocence
and the touching letters to his family,
exclaiming:
In them you see his soul, which
speaks. Alone in his tomb he COM
munes with himself. He cherishes the
hope of seeing his innocence acknowl-
edged"
Among the letters of Dreyfus read
by Nj. Demange was one, after assert
ing his innocence and declaring he al

and honor, the prisoner complained that

The Radical Remedy Suggested by a

Baltimore, Md. Sept. S.-The grand
jury for the May term upon being dis.
charged today by Judge Dobler, IL the
Criminal Court made the following sug-
gestion in its report: /,
THE punishment of death, whether
judicially or illegally carried out, would
be considered the most effective pun
ishment for rape which could be infict-
ed; it having failed, however in its re-
suits, we would suggest castration and
imprisonment in all cases of conviction
instead of hanging.
This punishment, unquestionably,
will prevent the criminal from again
committing this crime, and he will be-
come marked object and living warn
ing, which we think will cause others of
the same brutal propensities to hesitate
before they give way to their passions.
