hours to get the fire under control.
Men engaged in loading a lighter with
cotton saw the smoke issuing from the
ground floor of the Independent Store
house No. 1, ait the foot of Fourth
street. In the building, which was Of
brick and four stories in height, was
stored 1900 bales of cotton, valued at
$500, ,000 Ten minutes later the eighteen
engines and two fire boats were pump
ing tons of water into the burning build
ing. The warehouse where the fire
originated is one Of an immense plant
rof nineteen similar buildings which
cover three blocks. Building No. 1 was
totally destroyed, together with a large
quantity of the cotton,
Frederick r. Studwell, vice president
of the corporation conducting the store
houses, places the loss in the neighbor
hood of 100000. Spontaneous combus-
ton is assigned as the cause of the
blaze. The contents of the building be-
fonged to firms that are represented in

London, July 1.-Ser.ator Hanna COM
pieted the first ten days of his stay in
England at Windsor, where he witness
ed military review this afternoon and
caught his first glimpse of the queen
He has enjoyed London immensely and
his health has been so greatly benefit
tied that he has postponed his visit to
week.
"I am delighted with outdoor life in
England" he said to q representative e
OF the Associated Press land with the
wise methods, born of experience, which
teaches the leaders in politics and busi-
ness to limit their working hours and
take every opportunity for rest and re-
creation. I have not talked American
politics with English newspapers, but
/ am free to say that I believe the CID
ticket will be renOmiuated by the re-
publicanS next year and that it will
be re-efected. / anticipate little oppO-
sition TO the first part of this PROPOSE
tion, and / have no doubt the Ameri-
can people will decide the latter part
as they did in 1885,
Are there persons who manifest A
|
Of events in the Philippines?" the sem
ator was asked.
ITO my mind, the conditions there are
largely Of our own making, in delaying
the annexation bill. So far as tine DEM
ocratic party is concerned, 1 believe it
was never so much at sea as at present.
The south is tenacious to dts free silver
convictions, as are many of the trans
Missouri states. These are still under
the sway of Bryan's personal influence
and will do all possible to renominate
him AID the free silver platform of
1896. Ihe power and wealth of the DEM
ocratiQ party is centred on New York
felt they were invincibfe. They enter
ed the Chicago convention over-confi-
dent and undisciplined for the battle
To my mind these conditions have now
changed. The democratic chairman
Senator Jones, is ill in Europe. Bryans
only weapon is free silver and the
strength and weakness of that weapon
is now fully realized. Senator German
has seen the error of his ways, 1 think
and the eastern democrats will make a
great effort to secure a new ISSUE if
possible, new man.
The trouble about the antitrust
campaign is that they cannot make
trusts political ISSUE So far as
amassing wealth in manner to injure
the public is concerned the republican
party is just as opposed to it as the
democrats. The democrats would like
to use the anti-expansion idea, and
possibly, Admiral Dewey, but the COM
bination would not do and Admiral
Dewey is so big that he would not per-
NIT his reputation as one of the great
admirals OF his time to be used for any
political purpose. Personally, I would
like to fight against free silver; but
however the lines of battle are drawn,
you will see the American people de-
termned to follow the course the pres
ident has. laid down.

His Landing and Transfer to Prison at
Rennes Quietly Made
AGED BY HIS IMPRISONM MENT.
to Soon After Al
Rennes-The Meeting Between Husband and Wife-The
Landing Secretly Made and
"a Observation-Disclosures from
Landing o Prison a

Rennes, France, JuIy 1.-Dreyfus ar
rived here at o'clock a. M, via
POrient and Redon. The prisoner ap-
peared to be in good health. He wore
a blue suit, a grey overcoat and soft
fet hat. His hair is turning grey and
his beard is of reddish COLOR. He
held himself very erect.
The landing was almost unnoticed.
At o'clock yesterday evening the
guardship Caudan went to sea to meet
the Sfax, which had been sighted. The
unusual hustle attracted many people
to the harbor, but as they saw nothing
the crowd dispersed. The only per-
sons remaining were those who knew
where the prisoner was to be landed.
The weather was stormy and for time
it was feared it would be impossible to
effect a landing. For hours the. lights
of the Caudan and Sfax were plainly
visible, as the vessels pitched and roll
ed. 1t seemed impossible to approach
them in the rough sea.
On the landing stage were M. Viguie,
the chief of detectives; M. HenniOn, a
commissary Of police, and a force of
gendarmes and police inspectors.
Finally at 1 o'clock a. m. cutter
manned by ten men and in charge Of
naval officers put off from the Cau-'
dan and went along side the Sfax.
Thence the boat rowed to the shore,
where Dreyfus was landed a 1:3O a. m.
"A company Of infanry was drawn up
at the landing point Dreyfus who
had been brought ashore in the boat,
was immediately placed under the
guard of captain Of engineers and
sergeant and corporal Of gendarmes,
who formally handed the prisoner over
to M. Viguie The latter then entered
a landau with Dreyfus and two detec-
tives and started for the railroad sta
tom which they reached without incl
dent. The train stopped at Rabelais,
three kilometers from Rennes. There
the party alighted and quickly entered
a carriage, drawn by two splendid
horses which Immediately started at
a sharp pace. 1t was then 5:34 o'clock
a. m.
At the level crossing Of the line,
wagonette containing the prefect OF the
department of IlleJEt- -Vilaine, M.
viguie and three inspectors joined the
party.
The drive from Rabelais was with
out incident Owing to precautions
taken, the prisoner and his escort pass

/ ed unnoticed in front Of the arsenal.
WOrkmen reading the posters there did
not turn their heads, little suspect
ing who was passing.
The clock was striking when the
crowd, which had been waiting since
midnight around the prison, saw
landau surrounded by gendarmes be-
yound the station. Then they all cried
with one voice: There he is.' At
this cry the people started off to meet
the carriage and suddenly the troops
and mounted gendarmes hurried mad
ly forward, yelling and shouting as if
accompanying fire engine instead
of escorting a prisoner. The carriage
was driven so fast that it covered the
distance in a few minutes, passing the
watchers like flash. 1t was a race for
the prison gates between the gendarmes
with the captive and the spectators.
The gates them opened suddenly and
about twenty gendarmes rushed out
and barred the street pressing back the
crowd with rifle stocks.
The Transformation from tranquility
to wild scene of gesticulation almost
defies description. But beyond the ex-
carnations of surprise and curiosity
there were no cries of any sort raised.
Preceded by his guards, Dreyfus enter
ed the prison, was formally consigned
to the care Of the governor and was
taken to cell on the second story.
Though the rain was falling heavily
all night, the sun shone out brightly
when Dreyfus entered the prison.
The governor of the prison sent
Madame Dreyfus 10 news of the ar
rival of her husband and she immedi-
ately went to the governor and! asked
permission to see the prisoner. Leave
being granted, the faithful wife en-
tered the prison almost unobserved and
was conducted to cell No. $780, accom-
panied by Madame Havet.
The meeting between the long parted
husband and wife amFbetter be imagin-
ed than described. Naturally, it was
most touching. Both Dreyfus and his
wife were deeply affected. They re-
manned long clasped in each others
arms, tears and SMILES intermingling
with tender endearments.
Madame Dreyfus issued from the
prison in state of collapse. She found
her husband much aged, with beard
and hair whitened and body shrunken
and stopped. She said Dreyfus knew
nothing of the events of the past two
years. The weeping wife acknowledged
the courtesy with which she had been
treated. The gendarme who was or
dered to be present at the interview,
carried out instructions, and kept at
discreet distance.

The Philippines vein Night Attack
at San FernandO-The Americans
Ready-NO Serious Assault

Ready-NO serious Assault
Manila, July 1.-The rebels made a
demonstration at San Fernando last
evening They took advantage of the
darkness and rain and began to make
a sally against the north line, seeming
ly only for the purpose of annoying the
Americans, as they failed ito push their
attack. The American loss was a pri-
waite of the Seventeenth regiment kill
ed and four men wounded.
The firing began at 10 o'clock and the
rebels expended quantities of ammuni-
tion. All the troops hastened to the
trenches in expectation of general at
tack. The Seventeenth regiment, the
Twelfth regiment and the Iowa regi-
m'ent participated in the engagement,
but did not advance beyond the out
posts After an hour the Philippines
fired rockets, apparently as a signal to
cease firing; but there were scattering
shots all night, which kept the Ameri-
cans under arms. The enemy's loss was
not diScOverable, but was probably
small The Americans were guided in
their shooting only by the flashes of
the rifles.

AN EXTENSIVE STRIKE
To be lnaugurated at tho Homestead
Works of the Carnegfa Company

PittSburg, July There now seems
to be no doubt that there will be an
extensive strike at the big Homestead
plant of the Carnegie Steel Company
Whether or not the contest will rival
that inaugurated July 8, 1882. remains
to be seen. The question alt issue is
practically the same as in 1892-recognf-
tion by the company Of the amalgamat-
ed association-and the men seem de-
termined to stand by their union to the
very last. The company, on the other
hand, has announced decisively that no
amalgamated association men can have
employment in it's plant.
The present trouble was precipitated
yesterday, when committee of thir-
teen, representing the Homestead
lodge of the amalgamated association
went to the superintendent and de-
manded the reinstatement Of the fifteen
union men who had been discharged at
one time or another in the last three
weeks. Mr.. Corri and President C.. NJ.
Chawb received them in the company's s
office and not only discharged them, but
informed them that they could not 90

members and sympathizers out of the
mill. The result OF this movement is
somewhat in doubt.

Will assume greater proportion next

These night turn men quit work at s
o'clock this morning and will not go
on until Monday. After quitting work
this morning, the night turn men lin
gered on the street corners and discuss
ed the situation in little groups, with
evident uncertainty. They were close
mouthed about their intentions. There
was a noticeable qudetness in the
borough throughout the day, notwith-
standing the fact that 1t was the semi
monthly pay day at the Homestead
plant The paying began this morning,
but there was no disorder or unusual
excitement. There are $500 men now
employed at the Homestead steel works.
of whom 1000 are skilled workmen
eligible to membership in the Amalga-
mated Association. The remainder are
machinists and other craftsmen and
laborers. It is claimed by some that
none of the employees who went through
the troubles of 1892 are in favo- of the
present strike.
A mass meeting of workers was held
tonight in a vacant lot at Eighth ave-
nue. and Dixon street 1t was largely
attended and addresses were made by

dale and Mount Vernon, to proceed to
Gainesville at once and preserve the
peace. This action was taken upon
representations from Sheriff Gray, Of
Williamson county; General Man.
ager Sara Brush, OF the St. Louis and
Big Muddy Coal Company and promi-
country, who autographed the acting
governor that the sheriff was powerless
to keep the peace, and that the troops
were necessary. Superintendent Brush
telegraphed late this afternoon from
Gainesville as follows: I'VE are sur
rounded by few men who constant
ly fire Winchesters. They shoot into
our houses and along the road where
our employees pass All our men, wo-
men and children are so terrorized that
they will not go to their homes, and
have not eaten or slept since yesterday.
The sheriff seems powerless. We must
have the militia Immediately. Other
reports from Cartersville say that firing
armed and determined, and the sheriff
is poWerless. Only the presence of
state troops, it is asserted, will pre-
vent the loss Of many lives"
Carbondale, Ill.,. July I-Union city,
a small town built and occupied by un-
ion miners near here, was burned at
midnight after a battle between the
nj MI
who were fired upon yesterday. Seek
ing revenge for the killing of a woman
and the wounding of twenty men in
their party, the negroes raided Union
City at midnight. They opened fire on
the homes of the union men. The lat
ter promptly replied. The battle lasted
until the union miners were driven from
their homes and took refuge in a clump
of timber close TO the village. The nom
union men at once applied the torch
and the village was destroyed. The ne
groes then advanced on the woods.
where the union miners were concealed,
and until daylight a fusillade was kept
up between the factions. No lives have
so far been reported lost in the engage
ment. Reinforcements have gone to the
aid of the union miners.
Springfield, Hl., July 1.-Acting Gov
ernor Warder late tonight received the
following dispatch from Sheriff Gray,
dated Marion, ILL.,:

big fight soon- Ammunition and guns

Sheriff Gray telegraphed an hour la
terthat the Brush mines were surround
ed by $50 men.
Acting Governor Warder telegraphed
Sheriff Gray that the Carbondale COM
pany would get their guns ait midnight
and be at CaTstersville soon after The
Mount Vernon company will arrive
