The Latest Dreyfus Story.

David Christie Murray makes the statement that he has learned from trustworthy sources in Paris that the superior council of war, including Gen eral de Negrier, General Zurlinden, General Giovanninelli. General Du- chesne and General lamont, its vice president, none of whom. except per haps General Zurlinden, has heretofore been implicated in the Dreyfus affair, has decided that under no circum- stances whatever shall Dreyfus be lib- erated.

NEW TRANSATLANTIC CABLE
0srman-Am merfcan Project Approved
 by the Preaidant.

osrman-AmerfcanP Project Approved
 by the Presidsnt.
 Evidence of the purpose of the United States to maintain friendly relations with Germany has been given in the ac- ton of the president. at the instance of Secretary Hay. in approving the project for a new transatlantic cable running between Germany and the United States. The project was brought for ward by prominent German-Americsn interests and has had the active sup port of pr. von Holleben, the German ambassador here.
 The new company Is to be known as the German-American Telegraph com pany, and among those interested in 1t are prominent firms In Germany as well as number of Americans. The details of organization have been in charge of Mir. Sporer, in New York. The nesotia- tions here have brought out favorable opinion from the attorney general as to the right of granting cable landings in the United States as we'll as exchanges of views between Secretary Hay and Dr. von Holleben.
 The German terminus of the new ca ble will it Is understood, be at Ems, a town and watering place in the province of Hesse-Nassau. Prussia, near Coblenz. The American terminus is expected to be at New York. The route of the line will be by way of the Azores. Portu- guese possession, so 1t is presumed that concessions have also been obtained from Portugal.
 This will be the first cable ever laid between Germany and the United States, and, with the Franco-American cable, will be the only line not touching on British soil.

Savannah Press Condemns the Burn

Savannah. April 2s.-The press and people of this city condemn in unmeas- ured terms the lynching of Sam Hose at Newman. The Morning News says: "The lynching will send a thrill of hor- TOT through the entire country. The method of 1t was in keeping with the spirit of a savage rather than a civil lized and Christian community. It pro- vokes a spirit that is likely to lead to other crimes" The Press says the affair twill undo the work that friends of the state have been doing for years. It will dissipate and scatter to the winds the efforts that have been patiently making to show that Georgia offers to the home seeker the model abode in a state where nature. art and humanity are all unlfed in a cordial welcome"
