CLEVELAND, Sept. 4.-Governor
Bushnell stopped in this city a few
hours on his way home from Boston.
whore he aided in the prese ntation of
the silver service to the gunboat
Marietta.
Speaking of the state political situa-
tion the governor said that the popular
Idea that Mclean will be entirely out
the running is erroneous.
The statement emansting from
Washington that he would be beaten
by 200, 900 ia ridiculous. The race will
be close.
Mayor Jones will not cut any figure.
He is visionary. His ideas have taken
some root in the cities and he will get
some votes there, but in the country he
will get little if any support.

COOPERATIVE CLUB.
TO BE Formed BY Prominent New
MexiCans Now Residing Here.

One of the most unique Institutions
brought to life in this age Of trusts, is
the New Mexico Club.
The object and purpose of the club is
this: The club will find employment
for strangers in the city on condition
that the first weeks salary is paid into
the tressury, and when he brings in an
application for q new member, he is at
once enrolled as charter mem ber,
and no further pay is required at his
hand by the club.
The new member pays in all his
salary until he brings an application
for membership when he is in turn
enrolled as q charter member and is
relieved from making further pay
ments to the club. This is far reach
ing organization and number of
prominent New Mexicans who have
lately removed to Ell Paso are inter-
ested in the scheme and are, in fact,
believed to be the prime movers.
AS the plans have not been perfect
ed the HERALD is forced to Withhold
the names.

Dreyfus's Counsel Worried
And Uncertain
Today.
THE EVIDENCE SECRET
Four Judges Stand For Con-
viction And Two For Ac-
quitaI With President
Jouast Doubtful.

Rennes, Sept. 4.-Today's session OF
the Dreyfus trial developed the fact
that the prosecution is relying prin-
cipally on secret evidence of which the
public is ignorant. The generals are
more confident than ever, while the
defense is worried and uncertain. Few
of those who watch every move i'm
partially now expect q free acquittal.
The verdict will probably be COM
promise. Your correspondent twas un'
able to see the lawyers for the defense
today, but prominent Dreyfusite, who
canvassed the situation thoroughly,
said:
Labor is discouraged, but Demange
is hopeful. The judges are supposed
to stand four fer conviction, and two
for acquitsl, with President Jouast
doubtful.
"If Jousst declares for acquital
Dreyfus will be released, but never
restored to his rank.
''What we hope is that all the judges
at the eleventh hour will be seized
with the conviction that there is really
no absolute proof of the prisoners
guilt, while such as exists is tainted
with lies aud forgeries, of which Ger
nuschis' testimony today is a parcel. +"
PARIS, Sept. 5.-Max Nordsu said
today: ''The judges believe Dreyfus is
guilty, but 1 think they will acquit
him for the good of the state"
PARIS, Sept. 4.-Your correspondent
learns that the government now fears a
joint Intervention of the powers at the
last moment in the endeavor to estab-
lish the innocence of Dreyfus.
President Loubet is expected in
Paris today to preside at an extraor-
dinary session of the ministry when
new developments will be discussed.
It is said that President Loubet favors
forestalling Intervention by suggesting
to the powers that they mind their own
business
