DREYFUS TAKES A WALK
AND A CORRESPONDENT HAS A
GLIMPSE OF THE PRISONER.
Dressed in q Blue Serge Suit and
Wore a Soft Hat-Madame Dreyfus
in Better Spirits.
Copyright, 1899. by the Associated Press


RENNES. France. July 6.-Madame
Dreyfus on leaving the prison to-day ap-
peared in much better spirits than yester-
day. 1t was evident that her conversation
with her husband had been of more cheer
full nature. A large crowd had gathered in
the hope of witnessing her arrival and de-
parture, but the gendarmes cleared the
street adjacent to the prison and the spec
tators caught only passing glimpse of her
as she drove rapidly in a closed carriage
TO the residence of Madame GODDARD. The
latter left her house to-day and took up
quarters temporarily at the residence of a
relative in another part of the town in
order to allow the Dreyfus family full
freedom in using her mansion.
From a point overlooking the prison the
correspondent of the Associated Press saw
Captain Dreyfus emerge into the courtyard
to-day for an hours exercise. He was
dressed in a blue serge suit and wore soft
felt hat. He walked slowly across the yard.
with his hands in the pockets of his jacket.
His head was slightly bent forward, so that
it was impossible to see the features. AS
he crossed the yard he was preceded and
followed by a prison warder. The three
passed through another door leading TO a
garden in the center Of the prison, where
Dreyfus takes exercise, and disappeared.
General Begassiere arrived to-day and
will hold tomorrow a general Inspection or
the artillery, of which the garrison Is main
~ composed; but, as the review ground Is
outside of the town, there is little likeli-
hood of any rntoward incident, although
anything is possible, as the population or
Rennes, while calm at present. includes a
large proportion of anti-Dreyfusites.

FIREMEN AVERT PANIC.


CHICAGO. July 6.-With a wonderful dis
play of GOODNESS and expert precision to-
day firemen, aided by the police, prevented
a panic among 800 people, $50 of whom
were women. employed in the factory of
the Illinois Can Company. The building
was of six stories. Fire broke out in the
third story. Those employed in the lower
stories rushed safely into the street by the
stairways. but the employees on the floors
above were cut off and crowded to the
windows, many preparing to jump. Ladders
were quickly run up TO the fourth story and
firemen kept the frenzied prisoners in order.
Three hundred of them clambered down
through the smoke without accident. Loss.
$4,000; insurance $125, 900. A few minutes
after the building was cleared a terrific
explosion took place, but the walls did not
fall.

WASHINGTON. July 6.-Secretary Hay
said to-day that he had received no notice
from President Schurman, of the Philip
pine commission, of his intention to sail i'm
mediately from Manila for home, nor any
word from him since his return from his
trip TO the principal islands of the Philip
pines south of Luzon. 1t was fully expect
ed by the department that Mr.. Sehurman
would return to the United States in season
to take up his work as president of Cornell
University at the beginning of the fall term,
and 1t is believed that he undertook his
visitation I'm order to be able to report per-
sonally to the President the exact condi-
tons prevailing among these unknown
groups of islands up TO the latest moment.
There is believed to be no reason why Mr..
Schurman should delay his departure from
Manila until later in the summer, for the
indications are that there will be no change
of moment In the political situation in the
Philippines before the next dry season at
least, and, moreover, other members of the
commission will remain in the islands.
