The sewing machine contest is be-
coming more popular. People are
daily inquiring about the purchase of
large number of papers at one time.
There is but one answer to all these
questions. The Evening News is one
cent copy. The paper is brimful of
local news and items of interest to
people of this vicinity and it is cheap
at that price.

the newsboys for more papers. Women
are determined to get the machine.
The wonderful offer is being appre-

the modern improvements.
AS the time advances and the date
for the contest draws nearer a close
rivalry between the women becomes
more apparent. The Evening News
had a call day or two ago for 100
papers of single issue. Others have
asked for twenty five and fifty papers.
Some women tell of having two boxes
full of coupons already. Even the
investment of So il coupons, if it won

PARIS, April 23- Minister of War
Andre has received an earnest letter
from eX-Captain of Artillery Alfred
Dreyfus in which he asks for a reopen
ing of his case by the minister as the
supreme head of military justice.
The letter throughout is couched in a
highly dramatic STYLE which is likely
to make it one of the notable papers of
the case. 1t refers to Esterhazy as one
who stands before the entire world as
the culprit and says:
Il will not recall, Mr. Minister, what
l have endured since 1891. Picture to
yourself the horrors of a soldier whose
whole life is devoted to duty, to work,
to loyalty and to profound devotion
for his country and who in an instant
is stripped of his good name and de-
spoiled of the honor of himself and his
children. For five years this soldier\is
subjected to horrible sufferings. | now
address myself to the supreme chief of
military justice, and supporting my
self by new facts which have been
ELECTED and by the existence of the pre-
tended bordereau annotated by En-
peror William, beg to ask that you
institute an inquiry-frst, upon the
uses made of this false document at
Rennes and the consequences it pro
duced on those rendering Judgment;
second, upon the false and fraudulent
testimony of Cernuschi at Rennes."

Waterman Admits They Own
Much Mine Stock.
The SUPREME COURT WILL JUDGE.
Counsel For People Want Papers
Produced to Prove Unlawful Dis
criminatiOn Has Been Made
In Railway Rates.


NEW YORK, April 29.-At the after
noon session of the hearing now being
held in the federal building on the
charge made before the interstate COM
merce commission to the effect that
certain coal carrying railroads by pool
ing interests and discriminating in
rates are violating the interstate COM
merce law it was announced that coun-
sci for the railroad companies con-
cerned in the case had decided to re-
fuse to produce contracts asked for by
Clarence Shearn, counsel for w. r.
Hearst, who petitioned for the investi-
CATION.
George o. Waterman, secretary of
the Central Railroad of New Jersey, of
which George r. Baer is president was
called to the witness stand and asked
by Mr.. Shearn to produce the con-
tracts. He refused upon the advice of
his counsel, and the commissioners re-
quested him to produce them. Again
through his counsel he refused, and the
commissioners after consulting among

them. His answer was another refusal,
and it is now believed that large snag
has been struck in the case.
w. w. Ross, counsel for the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western Coal
company, not only said that he had re-
fused to produce the contracts on the
ground that they were not material to
this inquiry, but that he would carry
the matter to the supreme court of the
United States if necessary before he
would produce them. On these con-
tracts, it is said, Mr.. Shearn depends to
prove that the railroad companies or
the coal companies showed unlawful
discrimination in their rates.
In the course of Mr.. Waterman's ex-
animation by Mr.. Shearn the witness
admitted that George f. Baer was
president of the Lehigh and Wilkes
barre Coal company as well as of diff
| ferent railroad corporations. Mr.. Wa
terman is secretary of the coal com
pany.
| He admitted that the railroad com
panies owned nine-tenths Of the 10000
shares of the coal company. This, it is
contended, will be declared a violation
of the railroad company's charter.
Bitter remarks by counsel followed
by sharp retorts, had marked the con
tinuance of the hearing.
| Judge Campbell, counsel for Pres-
dent George F. Baer of the Phllade
phia and Reading railroad, indulged in
an outburst against the nature of the
charges, asserting that sit was all fool
| ishness."

the people of New York who had been
buying coal cheap cried out like whip
ped dogs when the operators asked
| fair profits"

an instant and retorted that the people

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Secretary
Moody is inclined to believe that the
prosecution of the naval officers at San
Juan, Porto Rico, who are charged
with smuggling, is rapidly becoming
persecution, and it is intimated at the
department that unless the attitude of
the local officials there changes the de-
STABILITY of San Juan as an important
naval station may be impaired. Il is
even intimated that the naval officers

other man who had opposed President
Roosevelt.
S. III. Stafford, shipper at Perth Am
boy for Coke Bros, was the next wit
ness and was asked many technical
questions, particularly about the rela-
tive cost of shipping anthracite and BIZ
luminous coal. He testified that it cost
less to ship anthracite than bitumi-
nous, as it could be handled more easi-
ly. Charles Weston, who was with the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal COM
pany, also was asked about the cost of
shipping coal, and his testimony
agreed with Mr.. Safford's.
