.DREYFUS PARD0NED
The News Created No Excitement on
the Streets of Paris Because It
Was Expected,
But RENNES WAS EXCITED
The Council of Ministers Passed Upon the
Matter-The Prisoner Dismissed His
Appeal In Order to Secure
Prompt Release.

Paris, September 19.-The council of
ministers decided to-day to pardon
Dreyfus. The pardon will take effect in
a few days. Dreyfus relinquished his
appeal for revision of Judgment Of the
court martial.
The announcement that Dreyfus was
to be pardoned had already been dis
counted by predictions, and there was
absolutely no excitement displayed
along the boulevards when the news
boys ran along at about 3:15 p. m. with
the first editions containing the state
ment that the cabinet had decided to
pardon Dreyfus. The newspapers sold
quickly, but there was no rush for them
upon the part of the voulevardiers.
Those who bought papers sat down in
front of cafes and read the announce
ment without comment. Every one ex-
pected it, and the decision met with no
opposition.
Droits de L'Homme, the Socialist or
gan, said: "Our task remains after, as
before, deliberation. Dreyfus is to con-
tinue the campaign against all those
who are responsible for the lamentable
affair.""
Rennes, September 19.-NeWs that the
don Dreyfus was received here with in
tense excitement. Dreyfus is still a

IN FAVOR OF RAILWAYS.
Decision Relative to Cleveland Low
Fare Ordinances.

CLEVELAND, May 16.-Judge Kicks
of the United States Court to-day de-
cided in favor Of the street railways in
the legal battle over the low fare ordi-
nances passed by the City Council sew
eral months ago.
The Court sustained the railroads in
their claim that the ordinances were
in contravention to the Fourteenth Con-
stitutional Amendment. Judge Kicks
said that the temporary injunction
asked for by the companies was there
fore granted, to remain in effect until
a hearing could be had on an applica-
ticn by the companies for the injunc-
ton against the low fare ordinances.
The ordinances required the street
car companies to carry passengers for
four cents, and for universal transfers.

.FRUIT-GROWERS
IN SESSION.
CONTINUED from Sixth Page.)

he had seen in the papers and heard
here He favored calling convention
and hearing from all the fruit growers
instead of a few. The producers have
to take what they can get and pay
what is demanded of them. He thought
it about time to make a change.
A POSSIBLE COMPETITOR.
L. M. Fletcher of the Missouri Pacific
Railroad, in response to a question by
the Chairman, said he did not know
whether his road was prepared to en-
gage in the California business or not.
He had asked his people and believed
that by the time the convention met
they would be able to answer.
Mr. Stephens said he believed that
any road that would make fair propo-
sitions would be given large share
of the business. There was a very Bit
ter feeling at present and something
must be done to allay it. On the ques-
ton of refrigeration the present State
of affairs gives Porter Brothers and the
Earl Fruit Company. control of the sit
uation. If the Missouri Pacific makes
a fair proposition the chances are that
it will be accepted.
NEXT WEEK.
A. D. Cults of Live Oak thought the
Chairman could get the necessary in
formati in a week and moved that a
convention be called for one week
from to-day, Tuesday, the 23d inst Mr..
Stephens could get all the information
necessary in the meantime. The motion
was seconded by W. B. Gester.
LANGFORD SOMEWHAT SUSPIC-
IOUS-
B. F. Langford, State Senator from
Acampo, San Joaquin County, called a
halt. He was doubtful as to whether
a. week would be time enough for the
committee to gather all the data neces-
sary to intelligently present matters be-
fore the convention. He thought there
should be some information as to what
the railroad company proposed doing
about transporting cars of another re-
frigerator company. He said that if
the company declined to haul the cars
of any other company it would be I'M
necessary to call a convention.
Mr.. Stephens assured the Senator
from Sam Joaquin that in one week the
Committee ON Transportation would
have secured all necessary information
from the railroad company, and that all
other data would be ready by that
| time
Senator Langford said that the infor-
nation gathered by the committee
ought to be authentic. and that,when il
dealt with such men as Armour. Hunt
ington and a, few other friends engaged
in transportation, it would be well to
have their proposition in writing.
CONVENTION CALLED.
| Langford's suggestion was received. in
silence, whereupon Chairman Stephens
/ put Mr. Cults motion and it was car
ried by unanimous vote Of the COM
mitteemen present.

GCldenbridge Is Placed on Wheels and
Taken to a Better Site.
The residents of Goldenbridge, in
northern Westchester county, n. Y,
moved their village recently. The en-
tire town, which is on wheels, is now
one mile farther east than it was.
Goldenbridge is, or was, in the north
east corner of Westchester county.
Recently the New York Aqueduct Com
missioner condemned the town and
notified the residents that they would
have to move.
Several of the old settlers who grew
up with Goldenbridge did not approve
of the idea of letting the town be wiped
out Of existence. After consultation
it was decided that a committee should
find place to which to move the viii
lage. The committee chose a pictur-
esque hill two miles east. Early in the
morning wOrkmen started in to elevate
the houses and place them on wheels.
Every team of horses and yoke of oxen
were brought into commission, and
the job of moving the town was COM
menced. Houses and barns were
drawn along the country roads toward
the new site. The furniture and some
times the people stayed right in the
houses. The village churches also
joined the procession. The old Gold
en-bridge Cemetery, which has been in
existence for over a century, will also
be moved.-New York World
