C[0UDBURST COMPLETELY
WIPES OUT MEXICAN CITY
DREYFUs DECLARED INNOCENT
Prosecuted French Officer Will Be
Restored to Power.

Paris, July l2-Alfred Dreyfus
was today completely acquitted of the
charges of which he was condemned
as a traitor, dismissed from the army
and imprisoned on Devils Island,
and regarding which France has been
torn for years by the most bitter po-
litical and racial agitation. His vim
dication is two fold, the supreme
court first announcing its decision, es-
tablishing the entire innocence of
the accused man, and the ministry
later deciding to present an urgent
bill in parliament restoring Dreyfus
to the army with advanced rank and
otherwise giving the government g
most ample reparation.

The decision of the court was a
foregone conclusion, as the eXhaus-
tive inquiries had completely demol-
ished the fabric of accusation against
Dreyfus, showing that the real cul-
prit was Major Count Esterhazy.
The decision, therefore, annulled the
condemnation of the Rennes court
martial and ordered that acquittal
be posted and published throughout
France.
Tonight the ministry held a pro-
tracted session at the Elysee palace,
under President Fallieres and deter
mined on the governments course in
carrying out the decision. The text
of two bills were formulated, which
will be introduced in the chamber of
deputies tomorrow, concerning respec-
lively Dreyfus and Colonel Piquart,
with the object of restoring both to
the ranks they would have had if they
had continuously served in the army.
Dreyfus, consequently, will be nom

STANFORD Whites "DEN'
A REAL DEN OF ORGIES

NEW YORK, July "a strange
mixture of the chaste and beautiful
and the coarse and sodden was
Stanford White, who was murdered
by Harry Thaw.
He was libertine and a kind IA
Their He was a high society man,
and he consorted with the vile. He
loved art and the beautiful, and he
ruined lovely young girlhood.
His passion for art and the beau.
tiful was illustrated in the furnish
ing of his den in the tower of Madi-
son Square garden, the den to
which he was wont to retreat. and
which for a month was under the
eye of detectives seeking to trap
White in the ruination of the young
girls, who at various times were
his special guests.
The room was a thing Of beauty,
but strange tales are told of that
den. Frequently his visitor was a
single individual, but often there
were parties-pardes on which We
nus rather than chaste Diana
should have looked down.
And it was from a point within
eyeshot of this very room while
a comedian warbled Il Could Love
a Hundred Girls" that Stanford
White was launched into eternity.
But the den in the tower was
not Whites only retreat. For
months he had a private room-un-
til he was asked to leave-over a
downtown restaurant and within a
few squares of his home. so that he
did not need it for sleeping quar-
tiers. This, too, was elegantly and
artistically furnished. Furthermore
that he always had a room at his
disposal at a hotel unfrequented
by his friends and family was a
well-known fact along Broadway
Much has been said of his rela-
ton to the theatrical world. and of
his work as a patron of the dra-
matte art, ever ready to help a de-
serving girl, and of his usefulness
and generosity. His true relation
to theaterdom is probably best H.

JOHN D. GETS EIGHT MILLION

NEW YORK, July 3.-The big
summer melon cutting, the greatest
ever known in this center Of Amer
lean finance, is on with rush in
Wall street. Thousands of men and
women, from the biggest banker to
the most obscure clerk, are head
over heels in work distributing
millions upon millions of dollars
in dividends and interest to the
holders of American securities the
world over.
The monumental sum of $17S,-
$4,000 is passing from the strong
boxes of Wall street into the
pockets of the investing public.
Practically all of the important
railroads and. industrial corpora
tons are paying full dividends,
some of them larger than ever be-
fore. The common stock Of the
steel trust is, as usual, conspicu-
Gus exception, no dividends having
been paid for nearly four years.
Thirteen great companies have ex-
ira or increased dividends, due to
unusual earnings, upon their
oceans of stock. Ten big indus
trials are new payers.
The July payments OF interest
upon New York Stock Exchange
bonds is computed by bankers at
$S3, 900.
Railroad stocks listed on the
local exchange are paying in July
dividends something like $50 ,OOO,-
600. Street railway companies that
have announced dividends here are
paying a total of about 100000.
The greatest sum is being dis
bursed from the industrial corpor.
atoms, listed and unlisted and re-
porting here, the total being Sb4,-
500, 900. This includes the Stand
ard Oil dividend, Just paid, and U.

OF course, the oil trust Is the
biggest payer. The fortunate few
who hold it's precious 9,750,Uoo
shares have already received

ering sum of 4,625, 900 as the mid

Rockefeller received something like
100000, as he owns 60 per cent
of all the stock.
He is the largest individual div1-
dend collector in this country, If
not the world.
Next in importance Is the steel
trust, which. on it's preferred stock,
has paid $6,30O,000. This stock is
the most widely distributed of any
of Wall streets securities, and
every class Of society will be rep
resented in the big harvest.
