Steamer Kansas City Tossed by the
West Indian Storm.

Steamer Kansas City Tossed by the
West Indian Storm.
SAVANNAH, Ga, Aug. 20-The steam
ship Kansas City, which reached here
early this morning, fifty hours overdue
had thrilling experience in the West
Indian hurricane. The ship encountered
the storm off Cape Hatteras and battled
it for two days. Capt. Fisher said il
was the severest storm he had ever en-
countered The ship was driven 100 miles
off her course seaward. The saloon was
flooded with water, the passengers were
wet, bedraggled and sick, some of the
women becoming hysterical. Most of
the passengers kept their rooms and
those on the upper deck were unable to
get out. The ship rolled and mrched as
the huge waves struck her and broke
over her decks. The doors and windows
were battened, but every moment during
the fiercest of the storm it was feared
the skylights would be broken in and let
the waves through.
At one time the danger of fire was add
ed to the horror of the storm Friday
morning the electric light wires set fire
to the casing in the after companionway
The fire worked its way along the cas-
ing to the main saloon. The alarm was
given Immediately and the call to quar-
ters was sounded. The storm was still
at its height, but the crew responded
quickly to the call and the fire was sub
dued.
All the casualties were to the officers
and crew. Capt. Fisher was injured
though hot seriously, by a fall, and First
Officer Smith was thrown against the
deck and internally injured Several
coal passers were injured, and it was
only by extra effort that they were kept
at work.

RENNES, Aug 2O-Gen. MERCER, who
was minister of war when Capt. Dreyfus
was condemned. and who in the pres
ent trial is the virtual prosecutor, was
called upon this afternoon and invited
to make a statement Of the position Of
the anti-Dreyfusards.
Though unable to receive the CORE
spondent in person, Gen. Mercier sent his
Oldest son to convey the following eX-
precision of his views:
Gen. Mercier considers it useless to at
tempt to convert foreign opinion regard
ing the Dreyfus case, in which, more
over, foreigners have no right to inter-
vene. Foreign peoples have been misled
by the press, which is violently Dreyfus-
ard, for the very good reason that a ma
jority of the foreign newspapers have
been bribed by the Jews. Gen. Mercier
considers anything he might say concern
ing his position, which is thai of a ma
jority of the French people, is useless
The best answer to the Dreyfusard state
ments abroad will be the condemnation
Of Dreyfus. This condemnation is only a
matter of ten days or a fortnight for
condemned Dreyfus certainly will be.
Foreigners will then see that their jour
nails have deceived them, for they will
recognize that the mass OF the French
l9tion, who will receive the news of the
conviction of Dreyfus as joyful tidings,
is not composed OF officials, and that if the
majority of the French applaud the con-
dcmnation it will be because it is just
and merited."
