he admits, will be a day or two yet. He

eight degrees above. The man who smiled
at the continued cold was the man who has

DREYFUS CASE VERDICT
La LIBERTIES GUESS AT THE DECIs-
ION OF THE COURT.
Cold Comfort for the Friends of the
ExiIe-France Seeking IA Loan
The Chinese Rebellion.

PARIS. Jan. 31.-The Liberte. which is
usually we'll informed, says: 1.-The decision
of the Court Of Cessation in the Dreyfus
affair will be that the evidence proves the
existence of a traitor, but that neither
Comte Esterhazy nor Lieutenant Colonel
Henry could answer to the culpability re-
vealed by the secret dossier." This state
ment is all the more significant in that it is
made by a pro-Dreyfus paper The Liberte
adds: THE dependency of the Dreyfus
party seems to show that solution of the
problem is as distant as ever. Another
feature of the situation is the buOyant de-
meanor of Comte Esterhazy, who was for
merly so depressed He is now credited with
boldly declining to give further evidence ex-
cept before the full Court Of Cessation"
The committee of the Chamber of Deputies
which was intrusted with yesterdays re-
vision bill met this afternoon and the min
lister of justice NJ. Lebret, communicated TO
ii the report of M Mazau first president of
the Court of Cessation, on the charges
brought by NJ. Quesnay de Beaurepaire for
mer president of the civil section of the
Court of Cessation against the members of
the criminal section of that court. The
committee, before examining the report, de-
cided to maintain absolute secrecy concern
ing it until they arrived at a decision re-
garding the bill and the publication of docu-
mentS in the case. An official report of the
proceedings will be published daily.

HALL ADLAI DEFEATED.
Match for $1,000 Won by Mcleod, the
Catch-as-Catch-Cn Champion.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Jan. 31-Danny Nc
Leod, champion catch-as-catch-ca wrestler
of America, won his match with Hall Adlai
the gigantic Turkish wrestler, and gave him
sixty minutes of as hot wrestling as ever
been seen. The match was under the aus
pices of the St. Paul Athletic Club, being
that the Turk should throw Mcleod twice
in an hour or forfeit $1,000. The men came
on the mat at 10 o'clock and Mcleod start
ed on the offensive. After twenty-seven
minutes and sixteen seconds Adlai secured
a half Nelson and forced McLeod's Shout
ders down by shear weight. In the second
bout Mcleod assumed the defensive and
by his superior agility kept the Turk on
his feet for about twenty minutes of the
time, although there was an occasional mix
up In the last ten minutes Mcleod again
assumed the offensive and kept the Turk
busy all the time, not only in his endeaVor
to throw Mcleod but in keeping himself
from the ignominy of a fall. The crowd
went wild as the referee called time, while
the men were in a terrible struggle on the
mat. The Turk either did not hear the time
called or lost his temper, for he gave Nc
Leod a terrible fling against the ropes.
Danny jumped up and made pass at Adali
but the referee and seconds ran between
them and trouble was averted.
1t is said Mcleod is the first man who
ever succeeded in getting on the Turk S
back, as he did in the first bout. Captain
Whittemore acted as referee About 1000
people witnessed the match,

the measure and those who would receive

careful and conservative estimate we find

ing the first twelve months under this bill
to pay bounties amounting to more than
$l65. eco 900. and this includes only the ship

must be built will cost probably not less
than $780, 000,000 OF this enormous bounty

PROTEST FROM A JUNT0
FILIPINOS AT HONG-KONG NOT SAT-
IsFIED WITH OUR COMMISSION.
Outbreaks of HostiIities Predicted rs
Soon as the Peace Treaty Is Rati-
fied-MOvements of Troops.

HONG-KONG, Jan. 31.-The Filipino
Junto here publishes it's protest against the
refusal Of the United States to associate
with the Philippines commission representa-
tives of the national government, adding
that the usefulness of the commission will
necessarily be greatly limited by the ex-
clusion of F1lipinos." The protest con-
tinues ut is impossible for the commits
sion, sitting only at Manila, unaided by
the friendly cooperation of the national
government, to reach a proper understand
ing of the actual condition of affairs in the
Philippines, the unanimity of the aspirations
of the people and their capability for self
government. Colonel Denbys utterances in
the November Forum are too pronounced to
inspire confidence"
The Junto further says: Last week a
Filipino boy was shot by an American SOL
der in a suburb of Manila because he was
wrangling with Chinaman in the market.
The soldier was not prosecuted, but the
boys father, in revenge, attacked an Ameri-
can outpost armed with a knife and killed
three of them. The rest fled. The Filipino
escaped. A Filipino officer was killed while
walking in Manila by an American soldier.
There was no prosecution The American
army is daily provoking hcstilities by acts of
vandalism
The Junto also asserts that the 'allega-
lions respecting a filibustering expedition
and anarchy are jingo falsehoods." The
whole country, it is asserted, has declared its
unconditional support of Aguinaldo, whose
authority has never been defied. The pub
lie evidently ignores the fact that every
province in the archipelago is represented in
Congress- General Otis's action III prohlb-
iting code kilograms is a fragrant breach of
international law but the truth is leaking
out"
The Filipino newspapers dencunce alleged
gross abuses at the Manila custom house.

IMPORTING LABORERS.
Hawaiian Planters Contracting with
Portuguese and Possibly Italians.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 31.-The steamer
Australia from Honolulu, brings the fol-
lowing advices to the Associated Press dated
Jan p:
by arrangement between Special Chinese
Agent Brown and the attorneys for the
Chinese who have been denied a landing
here, the Chinese have been held pending
the determination of the appeal to the
Treasury Department. 1t is not expected
that many more Chinese will arrive here and
it is understood that the Chinese in China
who hold permits have been informed of
the action of Agent Brown. There are six
hundred permits outstanding. The London
agent of the planters is engaging Portu-
guese laborers for the plantations, and it
is understood that two shiploads will leave
the Azores shortly. A large number of the
laborers may also be brought from Madeira.
The imported laborers will sign the con-
tracts and just what their status here will
be when the United States laws are in full
force it is impossible to tell, though the
authorities here have consented to the i'm
portation of the Portuguese. The Planters

CATARRH OF STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Ell

Catarrh of the stomach has long been con-

usual symptoms are a fun or bloatng sensa-
ton after eating. accompanied sometimes
with sour or watery risings. a formation OF
gases. causing pressure on the heart and
lungs and difficult breathing; headaches.
tickle appetite. nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the mouth,
coated tongue and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
Shiny, infayhed condition.
The cure of this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which causes
the food TO be readily, thoroughly digested
before it has time to ferment and irritate he
delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy digestion is
the one necessary thing to do and when
normal digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each meal
a tablet, composed of Diatase, Aseptic Pep
sin, little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit
acids. These tablets now be found at
all drug stores under the name of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets and not being a patent
medicine can be used with perfect safety
