KhNNES, France, July 3. Dreyfus
. arrived here nt 6 a. m.. via IO? lent
. and Ucdon. The nrlnoner appeared to
' bo In good health. He wore a blue
unit. Rray overcoat and soft felt hit.
HiH hair In turning gray and his hoard
or iPldish color. He held hlrr.peir
very erect.
The landing of Dreyfus at Qulberon
was almost unnoHced. At 9 o'clock
yesterday i-vc nlng the guardahlp Puir
fl.in put to Hen to inert the Sfax. which
had hern sighted. Tho unusual hustle
attracted many people to the harbor,
hut as they saw nothing, the crowd
dispersed. The only persona ,-, .ain
ing were those who knew where tho
prisoner was to he landed.
The weather wan most stormy, and
for a time It was feared it would be
Impossible to effect a landing. For
hours the llghtH of the Cnudan and
Sfax were plulnly visible, as the ves
sels pitched and rolled. I seemed Im
possible to approach them in the rough
sea.
On tho landing stage wese M. Vifcule,
the chief of detectives; M Hennlon, a
commissary of police, and a force of
gendarms and police Inspectors. Final
ly, at 11 a. m. a cutter manned by ten
men and in charge of a naval officer,
put off from the Cnudan and went
alongside the Sfax. Therce the boat
rowed to the shore, where Dreyfus
was landed at 1:30 a. m. A company
of Infantry was drawn up at the bind
ing point.
Dreyfus, who had loen brought
ashore in the boat, wan Immediately
placed under the guard of a captain
of engineers and a sergeant and cor
poral of gendarmes, who formally
handed the prisoner over to M. Viguie.
The latter then entered a landau with
Dreyfus and two detectives and start
ed for the railroad station.
Dreyfus did not speak a word. lie
personally opened the doors of the
compartment of the special train, con
Fisting of three carriages and a bag
gage car, which was in waiting As
the train was about to start the iocal
health officer refused to permit Drey
fus to leave, on the ground that he
had just arrived from the colonies.
The matter was quickly arranged, how
ever, and the train proceeded. Dreyfus
was only visible for a moment to the
reporters.
The train stopped at Rabelais, three
kilometers from Ren-nes. There the
party alighted and quickly entered a
carriage drawn by two splendid horses,
which Immediately started at a sharp
advance. It was 5:30 a. m.
At the level crossing of the liae a
wagonette containing the prefect of
the department of Ille-Et-Vilaine,
Viguie, and three fnspeciors Joined
the party.
An amusing incident occurred there.
The woman in charge of the crossing,
when told that if she watched she
would see Dreyfus, asked: "Who is
Dreyfus? I have never even heard of
him."
The drive from Rabelais to Rennes
was without incident. Owing to the
precauMons the pr-isoners passed un
noticed in front of the arsenal. Work
men reading the posters there did not
turn their heads, little suspecting who
was passing.
The clock was striking f when the
crowd which had been waiting around
the prison, the people beginning to
think themselves the very aims of a
practical joke, saw a landau surround
ed by guardsmen beyond the station.
Then they all cried with one voice:
"T-hore he is!"
At this cry the people started off to
meet the carriage and suddenly troops
and mounted gendarmes hurried mad
ly forward, yelling and shouting, as if
accompanying a fire engine Instead of
escorting a prisoner.
The transformation from tranquility
to a wild scene of gesticulation almost
defies description. The suddenness of
the movement stupefied everybody as
much as, apparently it did the prison
er, whose face showed from the quick
ly passing carriage. Dut beyond the
exclamations of surprise and curiosity
there were no cries of any sort raised.
The carriage was driven so fast that
it covered the distance in a few min
utes, passing the watchers like a flash.
It was a race for the prison gates be
tween the gendarmes with their
captive and the spectators.
Preceded by his guards, Dreyfus en
tered the prison and was consigned
to the care of the governor and taken
to a cell on the second story.
The governor of the prison sent
jlrae. Dreyfus the news of the arrival
of her husband and she immediately
went to the govecnor and asked per
mission to see the prisoner. Leave be
ing granted, the faithful wife entered
the prison almost unobserved and was
conducted to cell No. 830, accompanied
by Mme. Have.
. The meeting between the long7part.
ed husband and wife can better be
imagined than described. Naturally,
it was most touching. Both Dreyfus
and his wife were deeply affected,
They remained long clasped in each
other's arms, tears and smiles Inter
mingling with tender endearments.
Up to noon there has been no sign
of a public demonstration.
jmiiM from the Brooklyn Ilrldjre.
NEW YORK, July 3. An unknown
man dropped from the center span of
the Brooklyn bridge early today, about
130 feet from the water. Two men
who saw the suicide climbing over the
rail described him as about 54 years
of age. of fair complexion and weigh
ing abou 209 pounds. In falling he
made several revolutions of the body
and struck horizontally upon the
water. On the bridge near the place,
where the man took his fatal drop
were found a brown coat and a black
fedora hat. but they afforded no clue
to his Identity. The body has not been
recovered.
About the worst thing people do is
to have fits.
OaDfRS ISSltD EOR RECRUITS.
I'lrt Step Takrn Toward lnrrenLn;
Ifore I'or OtU.
WASHINGTON. July 3. The first
orders were issued today for recruit
ing the troops under the clause au
thorizing the enlistment of 33,000 men.
The order contemplates enlisting men
for the three skeleton regiments in
tho Philippines. Recruiting officers
have been instructed to enlist men
with this understanding.
Since the announcement that about
10,000 volunteers were to be mustered
Into the army for service in the Pb.il
lpplneH, the president has been de
luged with applications for commis
sions. Almost every congressional
caller has one or more applicants
whom he presses on the president's
attention.
The president requests all his visi
tors to file their applications with Ad
jutant General Corbin- At the same
time he makes it clear in a general
way that the policy of the adminis
tration In granting commissions will
be to give preference to volunteer of
ficers who showed ability and who
performed valuable service during the
Spanish war. Some regular officers
are also to be given volunteer com
missions, in the belief that one or
two regular officers in a regiment will
be of great advantage.
The number of officers to be com
missioned is being carefully guarded
to prevent a scram bio.
A statement prepared In the office
of the adjutant general of the army
shows that with the departure of the
Pennsylvania from San Francisco
about 3.600 reinforcements weie dis
patched to the Philippines this week.
About half of the troops are recruits
Intended to fill the gaps in the regi
ments In the Philippines caused by
deaths, disabilities and discharges.
There are about 3,000 recruits at San
Francisco, which are also Intended to
recruit the regular regiments in the
Philippines up to their maximum
strength of 128 men to a company.
Including the Nineteenth Infantry, un
der orders for Manila and troops at
San Francisco, there are 4,000 ready
to start for Manila as soon as trans
poptatirn can be provided.
One of the members of the cabinet,
speaking in connection with the cam
paign in the Philippines, said:
"The president has given General
Otis to understand that he Is to have
all the men necessary m the conduct
of the operations against the insur
gents. General Otis has been told this
In so many words, the president hav
ing said to him in effect that if he
(Otis) did not have enough men it
was his own fault. Before the rainy
season began General Otis was in
structed to prepare for it, and in va
rious ways was given to understand
the president's desire that the soldiers
should be well cared for and well fed.

QAM TrrANCI:4CO. July 3. l ne
steamer Nippon Maru, suspected of
being infected wltn me uuuumu
plague, has been released from quar

Its passengers and crew were held on

lying off the Pacific mail docks, where
it is the intention to unload me caigo.

tb rienbers of the board of health
fieci.nre their intention to prevent the

There is a clash between tr.e recierai
authorities an d the Ninnon Maru af

reived Instructions from Washington
to release the vessel from quarantine,
but the board of health has gone into
the matter more deeply and has sta

PITTSDURO, Pa.. July 3. The re
ported strike at the Homestead steel
works of the Carnegie company hnd
not taken place as yet, but the men
are worked up over the discharge of
the members of the Amalgamated
committee, who waited upon Super
intendent Corey yesterday and de
manded the return of the fifteen men
dismissed recently for joining the as
sociation. Threats of a strike are
heard on all sides, but the plant was
in full operation today and all the
men were at work save the twenty
four discharged.
A meeting of the Homestead work
ers was in session until an early n.jur
this morning and a conference with
Superintendent Corey was held at 0
o'clock today, but the closest secrecy
was maintained by both sides. A
short time later Superintendent Corey
left the works for Ilttsburg to con
sult with the officials of the company.
At the offices in this city nothing could
be learned, as the officials preserved
their customary silence upon all mat
ters concerning th-eir affairs. When
Superintendent Corey was seen the
following interview took place:
"Did 2,000 of your men quit work
last night?"
"They did not," was his answer.
"What reply did you give the com
mittee?"
"I prefer not to talk for publica
tion."
"Well, then, is the story true?"
"I would prefer that you see Mr.
Lovpjoy on the subject."
"Can we say authoritatively that
there is no strike and that the mor
did not quit?"
"You can."
An effort was made to communicate
with Mr. Lovejoy, but he was inac
cessible. President Schwab of the Carnegi"
company, when asked for a statement
about the proposed strike, refused to
discuss the matter at all. He would
not admit the truth of any conference
between himself and Mr. Corey, on
one side, and the committee of nine
on the other.
There are 4,000 men employed in
the big works. The company asserts
that only about 150 or 200 of them are
skilled workmen in the sense that the
term used is to be accepted. It is true
the laborers predominate numerically,
but the Amalgamated people claim to
aave received every promise of aid
and support from them. The com
pany has not made any attempt to
conceal the reason for the dismissal.
It was solely for the reason that the
men went Into a labor c realization
when they had been forbidden. The
question of wages does not enter into
the controversy, the men being as wll
paid and in many instances better
than those 'of the mills recogniitiig
the unions, and paying what is known
as the "scale rate." -
The Amalgamated association has
been working with the Carnegie em
ployes for some time. It was intended
to make the matter of formation of
the organization public several week.
ago and declare an open fight. A
secret ballot was taken and it was
decided to keep the secret, awaiting
developments. The officials of the
company, by some means, came to
know that some of their employes
were members of the union. Dis
charges Immediately followed, with
the plain statement by the officials
that they did not want union men in
their employ.
One by one men were discharged, as
their affiliation with the labor organ
ization became known. That there has
been much quiet work done among
the men during the last five yeais is
known among the officials of the or
ganization. Open meetings were hel I
at Homestead some time ago for the
purpose of gaining a foothold. The
meetings were well attended, but the
men were afraid to show their colors.
Many of them were discharged for
their attendance at these gatherings
The open plan was then abandoned
and secret work begun.
Htirns Homes of Fnion Minor.
ST. LOUIS, July 3. A special to the
Post-Dispatch from Carbondale. lib.
says: Union City, named from the
fact that it is occupied by union min
ers, was the scene of a battle last
night about midnight, and as a result
the town Is in ruins. The non-union
negroes and the other men employed
by Brush at his mines near Fredonia,
having become crazed over the killing
of the woman yesterday, wont to the
amp, which consisted of mine houses,
and opened fire on them, which was
at once returned. The battle raged
until the union miners ran from their
homes and took refuge in a clump of
timber close to the village. The non
union men at once applied the torch
to the houses and all wer-? burned to
the ground. After the men had de
stroyed all the property previously
occupied by the union men they moved
on to the woods and until daylight the
fusillade was kept up. No lives have
bo far been reported lost f:i the en
gagement at Union City. Union min
ers have been arriving at the scene
of the trouble all night an! the out
come must be a long-drawn out battle.
Both sides seem determined to win.

WINNEMFCCA, New, July 1 Last
night a special train containing mem
bers of Companies L and M of the
Twenty-fourth coloied regiment ar
rived in Winnemueca. A number of
tho men left the train and raided a
neighboring saloon. They wrecked
the bar and stole what liquor there
was In sight. Chri Delss, the bar
keeper, wa3 shot down by one of the
soldiers. 'Iho.se v. ho committed the
outrage then fled to the train.
The alarm was given at once, and
before the train coi:'d draw out of the
station it was surrcunded by the ex
cited citizens of the place. Sheriff
McDeid and District Attorney Van
duser would not permit the train to
leave until the guiity parties were
given up.
Major Noble, who is in command,
while not recognizing the authority
of the local authorities to delay the
expedition, consented that the train
be delayed until a thorough search
could be rv.aJe. The three companies
were ordered out twie for the inspec

that in daylight he could Identify one
of the men connected with the rob
bery. Mr. Vanduser insisted that the train
remain here until daylight, so that
the identification could be made.
Major Noble would not consent to this.
At 1 o'clock this morning the district
attorney and the major came to an
issue and the major gave orders to
have the trnln start. A writ of at
tachment was then secured on tne
local ticket agent prohibiting the mov
ing of the train from Winnemueca
until 5 a- m., or until the soldier had
been turned over to the officers.
Major Nobie claims that by delaying
the train the expedition, which was
to leave San Francisco tonight for
the Philippines, has been delayed.
At half past 1 this morning Dis
trict Attorney Vanduvr consented to
the release of the train.
I renew relations with ttie organization.
From the attitude taken by some of
the manufacturers tt is sure that some
of the mills will not work after today
with their present employes. At some
of them the swale of the Amalgamated
aasoclatlon has been paid and the man
ufacturers are willing to pay the now
rate, but with the association Itself
they will have nothing to d. This
may cause troubl", but a work is so
plentiful it is thought the men will
quietly seek employment elsewhere, as
they did at the Moorohead plant, where
the firm refused to recognize the or
ganization and discharge the puddler5,
replacing them with negroes. j
Secretary John Williams of the
Amalgamated association tw-s son- 1
guine today that makers would come
out all right, but was not bonnd by
predictions or promises. He rrid the
association is on a sure ba':1s. especi
ally in the Pittsburg district. : 1 that
the lodges which had gone 1 1 i-'m os
during the last fev years had been
reorganized and would present the
scale to their employes individually.
Continuance of operations will not de
pend upon single plants as heretofore,
when the scale was accepted or reject
ed i conference for pll mills.
Work will continue at the mills
which accept the scale and labor will
cease at places which refuse recogni
Uon. This pror;rtn, he sa'd, ""'lld
"ppiy to all mills, vhetber now classed
under the nama of union plants or
non-union. Mills thnt are non-union
today will appear as union plants to-morro-T'
after the scale has been pre
sented. Secretary Williams said the scale
would be offered at alrao6t every mill,
but exactly how maiy ho declined to
say. He said that the association had
been assured by a number of manu
facturers some of whom have not
been union manufacturers either that
they would sign the scale, and from
that he believes the situation will be
handle without trouble.
In the matter of the tin plate fac
tories a general shut-down would take
place tonight, pending the action of
the lodges on the scale rejected by the
manufacturers.

Sharpers Secure 6,000.
SPRING VALLEY Ills., July 1.
Troy Grove, a small village a few
miles northwest, has been worked by
sharpers, who claimed to represent
glass manufacturing Interests in west
ern Indiana. They succded in get
ting a bonus subscription of $6,000 and
proposed to remove the glass plant
to that city and bring in 200 glass
blowers and their families. It was
alleged that the removal was found
