Dreyfus Verdict Causes Resent

ll(lil Mw-r uillrUI KflMlloiiN Jo-rrniiii-nt
line IVix-rett ! Too Fur to
Nlop Now.
Washington, Sept. 11. It is be
lit.vod that w lie n congress asembles
there will no considerable agitation of
a proposition fur this government to
abandon its participation In the Paris
exposition. It it known that expros
hions hostile to tho exposition quoted
from Senator Stewart are very widely
sympathized in and it is thought that
if tho conviction of Droyfm is per
mitted to stand, there will bo very
littlo friendly feeling for Franco
among members of either tho house
or senate.
Such it move, however, would bo a
grave one. It is pointed out that to
withdraw from participation in tho ex
position would be regarded :is an oili
cial insult to Franco. No further
legislation by congress ia needed to
carry out tho plans of this country for
tlie exposition. About $1,200,000 has
been appropriated for the expensos of
ttie e,.rnmis.-i)!i and tho government
exhibit; the commission has boon ap
pointed and the placo desired for ex
hibits tim this country has boen se
cured. There are now only two ways in
which congress could interfere; one
would bo to revoke such part of the
appropriation as has not already been
expended in the expenses of the com
mission, and the other would bo to
pass a resolution, declaring that on
a. count of tho unsettled conditions the
valuable government exhibits should
not be sent to l'aris. To do either of
theso things would be sufficient, it is
believed, to break off all friendly re
lations between tho two countries
Congress and the state department
may look at tho matter from different
points of view. The president and
the state department having respon
sibility for maintaining our relations
with foreign governments, cannot be
expected to find in this affair a reason
for involving tho country in an inter
national complication, and it is likely
that tho executive branch of tho gov
ernment will use what influence it can
to prevent hasty action.
Unless congress expressly forbids it,
this govoinment 'ill proceed with
the preparations for tho exhibition
and will send to Paris such govern
ment exhibits as are decided upon,
but this will be done with a realiza
tion of the probability that much of
the space secured with such difficulty
for private American exhibits will be
left. vacant. Little doubt is felt that
the latitude allowed the private citi
zen will be quite extensively availed
of to withdraw from participation in
the ex position .
Auoiber difficulty in the way of an
effort to prevent participation in the
exposition, however, will be in the
fact that before congress has as
sembled, much of tho government ex
hibit probibly will be packed and on
its way to Paris, if not actually there.
The xpo-tition opens in April and the
w. rk of transporting and preparing
the txhibu will have to begin some
motrth- before that time. Up to this
time, it is said, the preparation of the
government exhibit has not begun,
but the work will proceed as soon as
the government officials are ready.
Representative Hepburn of Iowa
said today that he had ceased to mar
vel at the methods of French army
justice after observing how the trial
of l:eyfus was conducted. No such
t-ial or verdict was possible in tha
United States. He did not think it
would in any way affect diplomatic
relations between this country and
France, nor did he think it would in
terfere with United States exhibitors
at the corainjr exposition.
Xkw Yokk, Sept. 11. Congress
man J. M. Levv announced today that
as so hi as congress meets he will in
introduce resolutions in tho hou-o
with-ir wing the support of this gov
ernment from the Paris exposition on
account of the Dreyfus case.
An Automobile Kail Car.
Chicago. Sept. 11. The Illinois
Central is experimenting with an in
spection car having a motor run by
gasoline. Thus far, the experiments
have been eo successful that it is quite
probable that the road will adopt this
description of car on all its divisions
Several railroad men have expressed
the belief that the "automobile of the
rail" in a short time will come into
such general use that the hard work
ing inspection cars will be little more
than legacies of tho past.
The car with which the Illinois Cen
tral is experimenting has an average
speed of twenty-five mile an hour, but
it is canable of covering the rails
much luoro speedily than that. One
of the inspectors of the road is said to
have gone seventy-flve miles in two
hours A eallon of gasoline ordinarily
will run the car more than eeventy-
flve miles acd there is a provision for
carrying four gallons, or enough-for
an unbroken run of 300 miles.

is also at Port Tampa, says there ia a
ptnicky feeling there.
Dr. Murray wires from Jackson

"Mississippi has a rigid quarantine
for tho present against New Orleans.
Uivinfcction of mails is unnecessary.
No one can be permitted to leave un

reported daily from Key West There
were two deaths there yesterday from
fever.
Jackson, Miss., Sjpt. 11. The city
council held a special meeting today
and passed resolutions advising the
people not to create a panic over the
outbreak of fever like the one a year

siderably better today.

Havana. Sept. 11. The captains of
British ships arriving here from
Venezuela confirm the news that there
has been a resolution there during
the last three weeks. They say there
are two parties against the govern
ment, and that the latter is extremely
suspicious. Anyone wishing to land
must satisfy tl e officials that he is not
connected with either of the revolu
tionary parties. The government, it
is also said, is very unpopular.
Yellow Fever Inrrenmng.
Key West, F.a., Sept. 8. Thirty

the total number of deaths nine. The
weather is still very warm and rainy
and favorable for the spread of the dis

Granted that they live another sev
enteen months, there will be over 4,000
persons ready to greet the birth of the

ALLISON ON TRUSTS.
Iowa Senator of the Opinion That
the Question Is Not of a Po
litical Nature.
fUternpts to Control Combines In
Many States Yas About
Similar Results.
Des Moines, I , Sept. 8 Senator
A. ison ana Spcaker-to-be Henderson
today attended the meeting of repub
lican leaders in this city to plan the
c lining campaign. They were found
together and consented to talk on the
Issues.
"This year's democratic platform,"
said Colonel Henderson, "will be dis
astrous in its effects on tho party. It
reaffirms the Chicaeo platform, with
all that such a reaffirmation means on
the money quostion. As to their ex
pansion declarations, it seems to be
simply a cloak under which they hope
to make a successful fight for free sil
ver. SjU is with pretty nearly every
declaration in the platform. On the
trusts they have a declaration, and
everybody is agreed about the trusts."
Senator Allison, asked to suggest a
satisfactory legislative program as to
the trusts, said:
"I am looking forward to the civic
federation conference with strong
hopes that it will bring forward some
useful plan," replied the senator.
"Yes, I have been a good deal inter
ested in that conference. They are
going to get together a strong repre
sentation of men who have decided
views on the subject, and ought to bo
able to present some useful sugges
tions." "Will you attend the conference?"
"No, I will not bo able to do so, but
I understand that Iowa is to bo repre
sented in the delegation."
The Henry Wallace Ioctrlne.
"Have you noticed the proposal
from Henry Wallace on the subject?"
"I have observed that he is writing
a book on the question, but I have not
followed his plan very closely."
"His fundamental suggestion," ex
plained the interviewer, "seems to be
that these institutions be subjected to
examination as national banks are;
that tho results of the examination be
published, and that they shall be pro
hibited from excessive capitalization,"
"Who is to do all this?" interjected
Colonel Henderson. "How is it to bo
done? We have an anti-trust law in
Iowa; I do not know how effective it
is. Congress has tried its best to make
an effective law; nearly all the repub
lican states have passed such laws,
and some few of the democratic states
have done tne same. But what have
they accomplished?"
"I would like to see somebody make
a satisfactory proposal for an anti
trust law for the state of Iowa," said
S.-nator Allison, taking up the conver
sation. "Who is to conduct these ex
animations? The federal government
cannot interfere with a state corpora
tion, and that is where the trouble
comes in. The states have tried it.
The nation il government has no
power to iuteifere with state corpora
tions." A conerenco of the republican state
central committee, with Senators Al
lison ar d Gear, members of congress,
state officers and nominees was held
here today to arrange for the coming
campaign. It was decided to open
the campaign officially by set speeches
in every congressional district on Oc
tober 7.- As to the issues.it was de
cided to meet anything the democrats
might choose to discuss, which will
most likely be the Philippine war and
trusts. The democratic campaign will
open at Davenport on September IS.

Growth of Holland.
It Is a curious country over which
Wilhelmina, the giri queen, reigns.
Eight hundred years ago less than 600
square miles of Holland were beyond
the reach of the tide3. During these
eight centuries 12,000 square miles of
land have been "taken" from the ocean
by dikes and drainage, and now, at a
cost of about $5,000,000, a part of the
Zuyder Zee is to be drained and no
less than 800 square miles added to
Holland's present territory.

An Old Bridge to liupiear.
One of the oldest bridges in Europe
Is soon to disappear, under the demand
for better navigation of the river it
spans. This is the stone bridge, with
fifteen arches and a total length of 991
feet.built across the Danube at Regens
burg (Ratisbon), in Bavaria, by Duke
Henry the Superb, in 1135-MG. The
piers rest on piles, protected by stone
riprap and heavy ice-breakers; the
roadway is very narrow, and the foot
way allow the passage of only one per
son at a time. So far as its stability
is concerned it would probably stand
for another 750 years, but it interferes
with the passage of steamboats.

acrimonious argument with a neigh

a bolt of lightning from a passing

he thought the neighbor had struck

with his fists in lively manner, when
his son spoiled the fight by explaining
the cause of the trouble. Now the
old farmer is kept busy telling how it

Lunacy Increasing In i-Uig land.
Lunacy shows an alarming growth in
England. Statistics just published give
105,086 as the total of certified lunatics,
an increase of 3,114 over the preceding
year. This is the greatest annual in
crease recorded by over 1,000. The
rate of recovery also shows a backward
movement, from 3S.81 per cent to 3G.87.
Agricultural laborers provide the larg
est proportion of lunatics, attributable
to a low standard of life and the use
of strong, cheap Indian teas. Clerks
furnish the next greatest proportion of
lunatics. Here also hard, wearing, un
derpaid work and insufficient food is
the leading cause. It is contended that
the increase in lunacy is more appar
ent than real, and is due chiefly to the
law regulating the notification of lu
natics, but experts agree that the stress
of modern life Is the prime factor in
promoting lunacy. .
