Scarcely Anyone bnt Officials Witness the Landing at Erest. HURRIED TO THE SCENE OE TRIAL Small Crowd at That Point Which Wa» on the Watch Catches lint a FlretliifC Ollinpsc of the Famous Prlaoner— Dreyfus Met by Ills Faithful Wife. RENNES, France, July 3.—Dreyfus arrived here at 6 a. m., via L’Orient and Redon. The prisoner appeared to be in good health. He wore a blue suit, gray overcoat and soft felt hat. His hair is turning gray and his beard is of a reddish color. He held hlti.self very erect. The landing of Dreyfus at Quiberon was almost unnoticed. At 9 o’clock yesterday evening the guardship Pad dan put to sea to meet the Sfax, which had been sighted. The unusual bustle attracted many people to the harbor, but as they Haw nothing, the crowd dispersed. The only persons remain ing were those who knew where the prisoner was to be landed. The weather was most stormy, and for a time it was feared it would bo impossible to effect a landing. For hours the lights of the Paudan and Sfax were plainly visible, as the ves sels pitched and rolled. It seemed Im possible to approach them In the rough sea. On the landing stage were M. Viguie, the chief of detectives; M Hennlon, a commissary of police, and a force of gendarme 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 Paudan and went alongside the Sfax. Tlier.ce the boat rowed to the shore, where Dreyfus was landed at 1:80 a. m. A company of Infantry was drawn up at the lend ing point. Dreyfus, who had been brought ashore in the boat, was 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. He personally opened the doors of the compartment of the special train, con sisting of three carriages and a bag gage car, which was in waiting As the train was about to start the local health officer refused to "ermit 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 Rennes. 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 line a wagonette containing the prefect of the department of Ille-Et-Vilaine, Viguie, and three inspectors Joined me pitiiy. 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 precautions the prisoners 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 6 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: “There be la!” 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. Rut 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 (lash. It was a race for the prison gutes 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 Mine. Dreyfus the news of the arrival of her husband and she immediately went to the governor and asked per mission to see the prisoner. I.e»ve be ing granted, the faithful wife entered the prison almost unobserved and was eouducted to cell No. MO, accompanied by Mine. Ilavet. The meetiug between the long-part* ed husband and wife can lietter be imagined than described, Naturally, It waa most touching. Roth Dreyfus and his wtfa were deeply aflecte^ They reuialued long rla*|»ed In mu h other's arms, bars and smiles inter mingling with teuder endeui incut*. 1 P In b*mu there has bsaa bo sign of a public demon*tration. »'"■» -HI.

WASHINGTON, July 3.—The first orders were issued today for recruit ing the troops under the clause au thorizing the enlistment of 35,000 mon /he order contemplates enlisting men tr.uMt,hree Hkclct«n regiments in the I hilippines. Recruiting officers »,uVk ,^f'n *nstru,'ted to enlist men with this understanding. , ®",,e Ve announcement that about 10 ooo volunteers were to be mustered into the army for service in the Phil ippines, 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 Hume time he makes if clear In a geueral way that the policy of the adminis tration in granting commissions will be to give preference to volunteer of nefers 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 scramble. 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 3,500 reinforcements were 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 bIbo intended to recruit the regular regiments in the Philippines up to their maximum strength of 128 men to a company. Including tbe 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 portation can be provided. One of the members of the cabinet, speaking in connection with tbe cam paign in the Philippines, said: “’The president has given General Otis to understand that he is to have all the men necessary In 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. CALL Off THE QUARANTINE. Hu.peeled Flagne Ship at H»u FrancUeo Released. SAN FRANCISCO, July 8.—The steamer Nippon Maru, suspected of being infected with the bubonic plague, has been released from quar antine, after being thoroughly fumi gated by Dr. Klnyoun, the federal quarantine officer at Angler's island. Its passengers and crew were held on the island, but the steamer is now lying off the Pacific mail docks, where it is the intention to unload the cargo. Although Dr. Barbat, bacteriologist of the board of health, fears that the baccili from the glands of the two Japanese sailors found in the bay are plague bacilli, from their dose resem blance to the germs of the Asiatic disease, he cannot express a definite opinion until today, when the cultures will have been developed. Meantime the members of the board of health declare their intention to prevent the landing of freight from the vessel. There is a clash between the federal authorities and the Nippon Maru af fair. The federal authorities have le ceived instructions from Washington to release the vessel from quarantine, but the board of health has gone into the matter more deeply and has sta tioned a squad of policemen around the steamer to prevent any one from leaving the suspected vessel. Dr. Bar bat, the bacteriologist, is convinced that the bacilli is that of the bubonic plague, but will innoculate a pig or other animal with the germs to finally determine the question. In rhe mean time the steamship company will ap ply for an injunction permitting the cargo of the vessel, which has be< n fumigated, to be removed. It Is prob able that the Maru will again be or dered Into the stream on the strength of Dr. Barbat's second analysis of the bacilli. The passengers who arrived on the Nippon Maru are still detained at the Angel island quarantine station. 1'ie Iniltsn* Are llsurlng. CRICK. Ctah.

WAGE QUESTION IS NOT INVOLVED lien Belonging to Amalgamateil Associa tion Discharged and Told Tlieir Mem bership in the Organization Was the (Cause — Mutters that May Bring On a Nerloua Kupture. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 3.—The re ported strike at the Homestead steel works of the Carnegie company has 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 hour this morning and a conference with Superintendent Corey was held at 9 o’clock today, but the cbmest secrecy was maintained by both sides. A short time later Superintendent Corey left the works for Pittsburg 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 Bllence upon all mat ters concerning their affairs. When Superintendent Corey was seen the following Interview took place: ‘‘Did 2,000 of your men qutt 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." "VyplI, then. Is the story true?” "I would prefer that you see Mr. Txivejoy on the subject." "Can we say authoritatively that there Is no strike and that the men did not quit?" "You can." An effort was made to communicate with Mr. Lovejoy, but he was Inac cessible. President Schwab of the Carnegie 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 have 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 thp reason that the men went into a labor organization when they had been forbidden. The question of wages does not enter into the controversy, the men being as well paid and In many Instances better than those of the mills recognizing 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 veais Is known among the officials of the or ganization. Open meetings were hell 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 nt these gatherings The open plan was then abandoned and secret work begun. -- Horn* Home* of t'nlnn Miner*. AT. IjOI’18.

This I merger is one of the most Important railroad events In recent years. The scheme was planned and carried out by William K.

Twombley were as sociated with Mr. Vanderbilt In ar ranging the details of the transaction. BOSTON, July 3. Simultaneously with the meeting of the New York Central directors In New York the Al bany directors came together In this city, and after a short conference passed a resolution recommending the lease, with a proviso, however, that an 8 per cent dividend, payable quar terly, shall be guaranteed by the New York Central railroad, and also that $4,000,000 In money or property shall be reserved by the Boston A Albany road. This sum consists of the trust Improvement fund of the road and other funds and property which bad been laid by for Improvements and other special expenses. This sum of $4,000,000, Invested at the current rates of Interest, would mean a return of at least one-half of 1 per cefit additional to the stock holders, so that, the proposition, stated broadly, is that the stockholders of the Huston & Albany will derive net dividends of 8Mi per cent on their This recommendation must be ac cepted by the stockholders, who will vote on the proposition at the annual meeting to he held September 27. Then it must be approved by the legislature of this state. All these preliminaries being favorable to the proposition, July 1, 1900, will find the lease in oper ation and the new tenants in control.

MANILA, July 8.—Prof. J. O. Sehur man of the United States advisory committee for the Philippines relum ed to Manila today from a three weeks’ tour of the southern islands. He takes an entirely hopeful view of the gener al conditions there. The intelligent and substantial citizens desire an American protectorate. The masses are awaiting the settlement of the war In the Island of Luzon before de claring themselves. They are chiefly anxious to be undis turbed. The president of the town of Santa Ntcoias, In the Islcnd of Cebu, said to Prof. Sehurman. “We want peace, food and prosperity. We do not wish to light. We would be neu tral.” The president of tho commission thinks his declaration fnlrly expresses the sentiments of the people in the southern islands of the archipelago. Many of the towns there are in thp hands of small bands of Tagalos and the people fear to endorse American rule until they are certain that Agui naldo must be beaten. I^et them once tie convinced of this and the allegi ance of the southern islands, Mr. Schurman thinks, can be secured by diplomacy. The United States gunboat Benning ton took Mr. Schurman *o Mindanao and the islands of the Sulu and Vls cayan groups. He traveled through the island of Negros with Colonel Smith and a party of natives. In several of the principal towns he was tendered banquets and he bad an hour’s confer ence with the young sultan of Sulu, who received him In the royal audi ence chamber, surrounded by a body guard of fierce looklug Moron. Mr. Schurman told the sultan that the United States bad acquired the sov ereignty of the Philippines from Spain but had no wish to subjugate the pop ulation nor to interfere with the cus toms or religion. On the contrary, the great desire of the American govern ment was to help the people of the Islands to develop their country. The sultan replied that ho eannstly desired peace and was anxious to con tinue the existing treaties On the return voyage the president of the commission visited the town of Brneo, capital of British North Bo neo, where he was cordially received by the British officials, who afforded him every facility In his study of th< local government and the custom4 of the people. The population he found much like that of the southern Phil ippine islands. The government, is at present in a rather elementary state, but a more complete organization is being dovel open as rapidly as is practicable. Yesterday General Lawton and Prof. Worcester of the commission visited the principal towns in the province of Cavite, out of which the natives were recently driven. Their chief purpose was to direct the elections of the pres idents of I mils, Baeoor, Paranaque and L;»* Pinas. Under the municipal sys tem thus inaugurated the presidents, or the mayors, of the town are em powered to appoint minor officials and to levy taxes, which are to be ex pended solely In public Improvements. Before acting General Lawton and Mr. Worcester had consulted with the leading men In each town and selected candidates whose honesty and friend liness to American rule wore beyond question. Wherever they went the Americans were heartily cheered by the people. immirruw uip |hjiuh mcuuwih m mu nlla will open and It Is expected that there will be 5,0rt spread rapidly among the Ignorant classes that the Americans Intended to compel them to give up their churches.
