A DRAMATIC SCENE.
Gen. MERCER. the Bitferest Fee OF
Dreyfus. Branded n PersUrcr
at the Trial in ReEnes.

Rennes. Aug. 2S.-At the sixth ses-
sion on Saturday of the third week Of
the second trial by court-martial of
Capt. Alfred Dreyfus. of the artillery.
on the charge of treason, the feature OK
the day was a dramatic scene between
Capt Freystaetter. one of Dreyfus'
judges in 1894, and Col. Maurel, presi-
dent of that court-martial.
If Capt. Freystaetter is speaking the
truth-and he has the reputation of be-
ing man of the highest honor, whose
conscience was troubled by relations
of the intrigues and maneuvers of the
general staff-Gen. Mercier committed
perjury in his deposition and Col. Maui
rel was guilty of the suppression of the
truth.
Rennes, Aug. 29.-At the session Mon
day of the second trial by courtmartial
of Capt. Alfred Dreyfus, of the artillery,
charged with treason, handwriting ex-
perts devoted themselves to demolish-
ing one another's evidence. The pub
lie followed the dispositions listlessly,
bat the judges and counsel listened
with the greatest attention.
Rennes, Aug. 80. = Col. Cordier, dep
uty chief of the intelligence DEPART
ment under the late Lieut.. Col. Henry,
and who, since his previous appearance
in court, had been released by the min
lister of war, Gen. Marquis de Gallifet,
from his oath of professional secrecy,
was the chief witness in the Dreyfus
trial Tuesday. The colonel declared
that his belief in the guilt of Dreyfus
was first shaken when the date of the
bordereau was given as May. The
witness declared stoutly that he was
now convinced Dreyfus was innocent.

REVOLUTIONISTS IN CONTROL.
United States Consul at POrta Plata
Cables That Many Towns
Are Taken.

Washington, Aug. 30.-The state de-
partment has received the following
cablegram from United States Consul
Simpson at Porta Plata, Santo Do
mingo:
"All towns in this district except Monte
Christi in possession of revolutionists. This
town porto Plata surrendered yester-
day.
(Signed) SIMPSON"
Kingston, Jamaica, Aug. 3d. Nelson
b. Clark, of Boston, who has just ar
rived here from Santo Domingo, says
that the revolution is so essentially ma
tional and devoid of personal political
element that the adherents of Jiminez
are advising him not to come to Santo
Domingo for the present. What the
people are clamoring for is not mere
change in the political personnel, but
good government with financial sol
vency with which they associate the
idea Of American annexation or pro-
tectorate.

MANY APPLICATIONS.
Secretary of War Overwhelmed with
Requests for Positions In New
volunteer Regiments.

Washington, Aug. 30.-With about
100 commissioned places yet to fill in
the ten new regiments under organiza-
ton, Secretary Root finds himself over
whelmed with applications, even great
er in number than the sum total of
those received at the beginning of tno
Spanish-American war.
1t is said at the war department that
the large majority of the men who held
commissions in the volunteer army in
that war are again applicants for serv-
ice in the Philippine campaign, reen-
forced by nearly all of those who held
noncommissioned places. This same
willingness to Renter the service is said
to be observable among the enlisted
men.

WILL NEVER GIVE UP.
Secretary Says the Fill
pinOs VIII Fight for Independ-
ence While Life Lasts

Montreal, Can, Aug. 30.-Dr. Mariana
Ponce. private secretary to Emilio
Aguinaldo, president of the Filipino re-
public, is here en- route from London to
Manila. In an interview he said:
my country fights and will fight for her
independence, because she is fully con-
WINGED that it is a duty imposed by Provi-
dence. The ambition of a powerful ma
ton is not enough to make her renounce
her destiny. She is ready to make every
sacrifice for the defense of the freedom of
the land. The last word in the question
has been said by my nation. The Philip
pines will become an American possession
only when there are no more Filipinos."

1.-THE misguided followers in rebellion
have only our charity and pity. AS to the
cruel leaders who have needlessly sacr1-
feed the lives of thousands of their peo-
pie al the cost of some of our best blood

designs, ! will leave TO others the ungra-

pleasure to recommend for each OF them

begun. Our prayers go with them. and
more men and munitions If required, for
the speedy suppression of the rebellion, the
establishment of peace and tranquility ana
government under the undisputed SOW
ereignty of the United States-a govern
ment which will do justice to all
and at once encourage the best efforts and
aspira lions of these distant people and the
highest development of their rich and fer
tile lands.
1.-The government to which you gave your
loyalty welcomes you TO your home. with
no blot or stain upon your record, the story
of your unselfsh services to country and TO
civilization will be to the men who take
your places at the front and on the firing
line and to future generations an example
OF patriotism and an inspiration to duty.
