Importance, the Roget-B -Brugere episode,
in which General Roget clearly gave
himself away, being the only matter
which attracted especial attention.

y AN DOMINGO, Sept. Members
y of the retiring Cabinet of former
President Figuereo were detected
~ yesterday loading a lot of arms
and ammunition on board schOon-
ers, which they intended to send to
Azua This discovery caused great ex-
element in the city and led to serious
demonstrations. Large crowds quickly
formed in the streets, the majority be-
ing young hot-headed men, who
marched up and down the thorough
fares in disorderly mobs shouting
Viva Jimenes" and "viva Revolution"
at the top of their voices.
The great throng finally gathered
around the Governors Palace last
night, 'angrily demanding that the Min
listers should at once relinquish all
their powers.
The mob then broke into the Palace
and destroyed a painting of the late
President Heureaux, hanging in one of
the rooms.
From the Palace the mob marched to
the residences of several members of
the Cabinet and begun hurting stones
through the windows, after smashing
the shutters. The Governor appeared
powerless and made no effort to curb
the disorder.
These riotous demonstrations contin-
ued until midnight, when the fright
ened and helpless Ministers announced
that they would turn over their powers
to men to be selected by the citizens.
Four citizens were promptly chosen
by the mob to act as a committee of
safety, and it was agreed that this
committee should act in concert with
| Governor Mejia until the members of
the provisional government arrive to
take control of affairs. The mob dis
persed after firing many shots.
Foreigners here are safe as yet, but ii
is impossible to tell what the next fort
night may bring. Things look gloomy
for the establishment of a stable Gov
ernment. The revolutionists have or
ganized a provisional Ministry in San
tiago, headed by Horacio Vasquez, with
Ramon Cacceres as Minister of War.
The revolutionists are undecided as to
the man they want for President. 1t is
understood on excellent authority
! however, that they are not in favor OF
putting Jimenes at the head of the re-
public This attitude of the revolu-
tionists is likely to cause a clash, and
thus lead to fresh disturbances.
Jimenes cabled to-day that his ennis
saries would soon arrive here and that
he would follow them. Jimenes is pop
ular in this city, but the masses are
tickle and will desert him on the slight
est provocation. The popular idol just

~ ENNES, sept. 1--1nl Was d
very satisfactory day for Drey-
fus. The Beaurepaire witness,
German, who was TO have
proved that Dreyfus attended
the Alsatian maneuvers, found his
statements denied by a reputable wit
ness. while Germain himself, it was
proved, underwent two convict SEN
tences for sWindling.
This was the only testimony against
Dreyfus, the remainder OF the deposi-
tions being in his favor. several of
them being very weighty, as in the
case of Captain Carvallgo, General Sc
bert and Major Hartmann, their evil
dence going to show that particulars
OF the firing manual of the '120 gun"
and hydro-pneumatic brake were al
most matters of common knowledge
among the officers and that the con-
tention that Dreyfus from his special
position on the staff and peculiar move
ments could be acquainted with them
had no solid basis. This was the sum
