PRICE FIVE OENTS, JIMINEZ STARTS HIS REVOLUTION to The C APE HAYTIEN, Hayti, Aug. 3.—It has just become known that an armed insurrection has broken out at Tavoga, a town seventy- eight miles northwest of San Domingo, in favor of Jiminez, who aspires to the Presidency in succession to the late President Heureaux. Later advices from the Dominican republic indicate that the rev- olution is growing in strength. At Santiago de la Cruz 500 well-armed men have risen under the command of General Ramon Pacheco, and General Preyes, who is very influential in these districts, has joined the insurgents with sev- eral other generals, each commanding fairly important forces.

ARIS, Aug. 3.—The Intransigeant publishes a statement which General Mercier is said to have made to a friend, in which the ex-Minister of War said: ‘“Certainly Dreyfus will be convicted again. Either he is guilty or I am, and I shall prove him to be a traitor.” Revisionist organs assert that General Mercier intends to declare at Rennes that Count Munster, the German Embassador to France, showed him proof of Dreyfus’ guilt, at the same time saying if Mercier published the evidence he (Munster) would deny it. It appears that the Minister of War, General Marquis de Gallifet, has absolved all military wit- nesses at the court-martial of Captain Dreyfus at Rennes from professional secrecy, with the exception that he has requested them not to divulge the names of French agents abroad or disclose anything which could complicate the foreign relations of France. % LONDON, Aug. 3.—The Paris correspondent of the Times, referring to the Mercier matter, recalls Germany impressively denied that any of her agents or officials had relations with Dreyfus. The corre- spondent adds: “Everybody is aware if the attempt is made to involve Germany in the affair the coun- try will consider such proceeding a premeditated insult, and would immediately ask for a disavowal. We need not, therefore, further heed the intentions attributed to General Mercier, unless it is part of a plan of the general staff, of which General Mercier is an unintelligent instrument, to use him for the purpose, obliging the court-martial to be held in camera, in order to avoid possible complications that might arise from such a declaration as General Mercier is reported to contemplate making. This method of throw- ing an air of mystery around a portion of the proceedings will vitiate the whole trial by giving an op- portunity for saying that as all is not known to the public the verdiect remains uncertain and question- able.” CHAPLAIN MILBURN To-night he | octors look for | FLAMES ‘PLAY HAVOC der the care of a physician is much improved and the PROSTRATED BY HEATI complete recovery in time. s it | IN A RUSSIAN TOWN LINCOLN, Aug. 3—Dr. W.
