preaching a calamity and that discon-
tent and profound business depression
existed. Finally, General Wood prayed
that the customs receipts be left under
local control The witness declared
that the attitude of General Wood was
responsible to great extent in adding
to the disquiet of the Cubans.
RUBENS GIVES TESTIMONY.
Horatio S. Rubens of New York, for
merly a metgber of the Cuban junta,
gave testimaNy tending to corroborate'
the statements made to the committee
by Major Runcie in reference to the
knowledge General Wood is said to
have had of the Runcie magazine arti-
Gle criticising unfavorably the admin
istration of Major General Brooke as
Governor General of Cuba.
One of the most important state
ments made by Rubens was that Cen
eral Wood visited him after the pub
lication Of the Runcie article and that
their conversation showed that General
Wood had previous knowledge of it.
Rubens said General Wood admitted
that he told Runcie that the article
put him (Wood) in an awkward posi-
ton.
Rubens also told the committee than
when the break occurred between Run
Gle and General Wood he brought them
together and tried to patch UP their
differences in a manner that would ex-
onerate Runcie of the onus attached to
his name by the report made to the
War Department by General Wood.
The witness also said that when Runcie
wrote to General Wood begging Wood
to set him right before the country.
Runcie showed him the letter. He told
the contents of the letter to the COM
mittee and it supplied the missing link
in the correspondence that has pre-
viously been filed with the Rathbone
charges.

AWAIT REPORT
IN DREYfU|s CASE
Action on Petition for
Revision TO Be An
nounced Soon.
Connection of Panama and
Humbert Episode Ex-
cites Interest.

PARIS, Nov. So.-The general belief
prevails in well-lnforrned circles that
the commission appointed to pronounce
upon the admIssibIIIty OF the request
of Alfred Dreytus for q judicial re-
vision of his case viii submit its con-
clusions to the Minister Of Justice
within a week, and some persons say
before the end OF the present week.
NJ. AIercier,. director OF the Ministry
OF Justice and a member OF the com.
mittee, says the commission has not
yet assembled. and that he has no
knowledge Of the contents OF the docu.
ments TO be examined.
"The committee . Mercier adds. ''pros
poses to take all the time necessary 10
deal with such an important question,
but its conclusions will not be nnai.
They may or may not be aeeepted By
the Minister OF Justice" as
In this connection e IS recalled that
the first consultation committee
charged to examine the petition pre-
sented by Nine. preyfus in the name
Of her husband then a prisoner eE
Devils IsIand, decided against . re-
vision, but the Minister 0e Justice over
ruled this. which is considered pre-
cedent for like action in the present
development by: Minister Valge, who
some time ago went. so far: as 10 say.
that the policy OF the Government: had
already been made up and was favor
able to Dreyfus. whatever the conclu
sious Of the commission. although the
officials expect them to support the
Dreyfus petition.
The commission will pass upon two
points-the uses made of the pretend
ed bordereau annotated by Emperor
William of Germany and the alleged
false testimony of Czernuski during
the court-martial at Rennes.
Public sentiment has been aroused to
a high pitch by this latest phase Of
the Dreyfus affair. which was rele-
gated to second and third places, re-
spectively, by the Panama affair and
the Humbert inquiry. Some of the SEN
sational papers connect the Humberts
with Dreyfus, asserting that they used
their influence and money in his be-
half in order that the Ministry might
not be subjected to the danger of be-
ing shaken UP.
In consequence of the agitation fol-
lowing the action taken in the Drey-
fus affair." the Government has allowed
the publication of the declaration made
at the last meeting of the Council by
M. Vale, the Minister of Justice The
Minister communicated to his col
leagues the contents of the dossier.
and the result of the examination made
by War Minister Andre and himself,
adding:
''You understand that will not con-
suit you or solicit advice. have sim
ply determined to inform you of my
decision, which I have the right to take
as Minister of Justice, and which
take on my own responsibility
Deputy Congy Republican Social
isD to-day announced his intention to
interpellate the Minister of War, upon
his return to Paris, in regard to his
action in the Dreyfus case, but the
Ministry replied that it had no inten-
ton of arguing the Interpolation un-
tif the commission had rendered its
report.

committee Rubens explained the man
ner in which he CHANGED to go to Cuba
in connection with the military, what
his services had been and of a differ
ence with General Wood, through which
he severed his connection with the
Government. He said he then became
counsel in the postoff1ce cases. He

were true that General Wood had made
show of jealousy of his superior Off
GERS.

between General Wood and newspaper
men. saying it was understood that he
attempted to use the newspaper men
to exploit his own deeds Regarding
Generals Ludlow and Wilson Rubens
said General Wood was quoted as saw
ing that he had to get rid of them

admitted, as the witness told the COM

prove the truth of the statements.
At the conclusion of Rubens' testi-
mony a member Of the committee
asked him his opinion of General
Woods veracity. He asked that the
question be made more explicit. and

any matter in which the general had
a personal interest. Rubens answered
he was sorry to say that he could not
accept General Woods statement under
such circumstances.
