Rival Meetings Followed

PARIS, April 26.-The advocates and
opponents of Dreyfus revision held
rival meetings in Paris this evening
and fights occurred afterward in the
streets. Several persons were injured.
The Figaros publication of the evil
dence of Captain Cuignet before the
Court of Cessation has thrown the
anti-revision party into CONSERVATION.
The Eclaire and all the anti-Dreytus
papers are boiling with indignation.
Several of them suppress altogether the
testimony of this officer, whose prlncl-
pal statement was that the guilt OF
Dreyfus could be only 1nterentlalIy
shown from the secret dossier. The
Eclaire denounces Captain Culgnet
in unmeasured terms.

chester, that he would hold an ordination
in his church on Sunday morning. May
a. 1t was the Bishops intention then
to advance to the priesthood two deacons,
Rev. Charles A. Briggs, a professor in

Charles H. Snedeker. DR.. Briggs, whose
teachings at the Union Seminary and
whose published works had occasioned
great controversy in the Presbyterian
church. left that body some time ago and
received confirmation in the Episcopal
church. His reception into that COM
munion was far from cordial Later
DIR. Briggs was recommended by the
Bishops examining chaplains and by the
standing committee of the diocese of New
York for admission to holy orders, and
was made a deacon in the Episcopal
church. The same authorities concurred
in his proposed advancement to the
priesthood.
DR.. Clendenin. who is ranked as a
stanch and moderate high churchman,
now asks Bishop Potter to alter his plans
and to withdraw the proposed ordination
from St Peters, WestcheSter He ana
lyzes DR.. Briggs last book. condemns his
views severely and fatty protests against
DR.. Briggs being ordained at all to the
priesthood.

GERMAN PUBLISHERS
PROMOTE GOOD FEELING
Missouri Newspaper Men Set Forth
the Friendship of the Fatherland
for America.

ST. LOUIS, April 26.-The German
newspaper publishers of Missouri held a
meeting here to-day for the purpose of
defining their position regarding the new
policy of imperialism and militarism'
DIR. Emil Pretorius. editor of the West
licher Post and the Nestor of the German
press of America, presided and after a
lengthy discussion the following resolu-
lions were unanimously adopted:
1-Systematic and uninterrupted efforts have
been made during the past twelve months to
destroy by misrepresentation and unfounded
cal friendship between the United States and
Germany. These malicious intentions have Gre
ated among the German American population
the greatest indignation. We therefore regard
it our duty as loyal citizens to denounce these
continued falsehoods and Misrepresentation
which endanger the old friendship of the two
countries.
2--The friendship between the United States
and Germany is as old as the history of the
great American republic, and has lasted I'M
Interrupted. AS the Government of Frederick
the Great was the first European power which
states, Germany was the first to acknowl-
edge the supremacy of the United States
in the Philippines This fact alone
intentions and no desire to oppose us in the
Orient.
3-In the glorious history of the United States
days of the civil the German American
population has shown strong and patriotic 10y
atty TO the union. In the darkest days of the
republic the German Americans stood firm and
true by the union, they will do in future
We German-Americans and the Germans in the
old country have been cruelty misrepresented
We proved our loyalty during the past war
and will continue to prove 1t, whatever the
future may bring. But we protest most en-
phatcally against all falsehoods and intrigues
which are intended to interrupt in the interest
of England the friendship between the United
States and Germany.
4-True to the constitutions and traditions of
the republic we take firm stand against i'm

German American citizens stand almost unani-

GREAT UNEASlNESS
IN THE TRANSVAAL
While Kruger's Defenses Are Being

There is renewed uneasiness over the stu

More rigid inspection of the military
