Risnnrs, August 10.—One of the chief witnesses before the court today was general Roget. In the course of liis evidence lie said: "M. Casimir-Perier deposed before the court of cassation that an ambassador called to demand an official denial of the statement that important documents were, found at his embassy. The ambassador, however, knew ib was a fact, but, admitting that he did not know it, then; is nothing surprising in tlie Occurrence in view of the facility with which attache "A" (1 do not mention his name because the minister lias forbidden it) allowed compromising hitters to lie around. I read one such letter which was very compromising to a person whoso name 1 cannot mention. Why, therefore, should not the bordereau go astray?" Tho general insisted upon tho truth of the statement that military attaches "A" and "B," under -which letters he referred to colonel Se.hwathenbass of the German embassy at Paris and major Panr/ardi of tho Italian embassy, who were at the French capital at the time, worked together almost daily, and ho quoted a passage from a letter exchanged between them as follows: "M. Hanotaux, the sly ' follow, is glad that the embassy is denying. The embassy must deny." In the same document was the name of Dreyfus. The name of Estcrha/.y, he added, was not found in any of the documents, none of which conld be ascribed to him with the exception of the petit bleu, which colonel Picquart discovered in such an extraordinary .manner. The witness said he then felt great uneasiness in regard to the document containing the words "cette canaille dn].)—7—."• A certain military attache, said tlie general later 011 in his testimony, informed colonel Sandherr that there was some one who imitated his handwriting perfectly. The name Dubois, the witness said further, was found in the correspondence of the military attaches. "Dubois," the general explained, was the unfortunate who futilely tried to sell the secret of the smokeless 'powder used in the French army. "If," said general Roget, "No -other person can be found to whom the initial D. can apply, to whom does it then apply?" "■'As he made these remarks the judges faced about and looked fixedly at the prisoner, who, however, merely shrugged Jiis shoulders. "No," continued the general, "the ex /■ * •0?

The most interesting part of his testimony was his attack on colonel Picquart, which will undoubtedly lead to the con frontal of the two men. Me treated Dreyfus without inerey,both in wordsand attitude. It seemed at times as though he would provoke the prisoner into striking him. The general's manner was 'most picturesque. In his outburst at tlie end of his testimony he uttered the last ruthless attack with the air of ono. delivering a pleasant Sunday school address, leaning over tho front of the witness rail, sipping from a glass of water with his lips, and .mopping his brow with perfect self satisfaction, but again and: again he would half turn in his chair and, pointing his finger at Dreyfus, would repeat some cruel accusation, at the same time fixing his eyes on Dreyfus. He inclined forward, like a cobra waiting tlie moment to strike. Dreyfus, however, was not a hypnotized rabbit, and steadily returned his gaze, sometimes throwing a glance at the president of the court as though appealing for permission to reply;'" Once Avhen general Roget had flung one of these darts he stopped and deliberately paused. One could see the fire in Dreyfus'eyes', and in his tightly closed jaws could divine the struggle that Avas going on Avithin him. The captain of gendarmes sat beside Dreyfus aiid-'watched him closely. The seconds passed like hours and the spectators held their, breath. General Roget seemed" to prolong the silence in order to make a deeper impression. It Avas a perilous moment, but Dreyfus Avon the battle "over his passions, and Avhen Roget's voice was at length-heard again everyoim kneAv that the danger Avas passed. Rbnnes, August Hi.—The second trial by court ma.rtial of Dreyfus continued this-, morning. The. feature of the day Avas the story of the '.sufferings of Dreyfus on Devil's island.

The point was first raised in the fall of 1805-by. a AveM-known mineral land, surveyor of Nelson, avIio, in writing to the lands and works department, held that in running lines as boundaries of mineral claims it was... necessary to'stop on arriving at the boundary of another survey, or the boundary of another, claim though unsuiwcycd. Thepoint AA'as submitted by the survey-general to thp-attorney-general for an opinion, and that official, through'deputy'Arthur G.

The colonel then addressed the prisoner, asking him if lie had anything to say in 'reply to general Rogeb. Dreyfus replied: " No, my colonel. It is frightful that day after day for hours, I should thus have my heart, soul and my very entrails torn without being permitted to reply. It is a terrible: torture to impose upon an innocent and loyal soldier. It is a frightful thing, frightful, frightful." The outburst caused a great sensation. The audience Avas profoundly stirred and begau to applaud but the applause Avas quickly suppressed. Colonel Jonaust pointed out to Dreyfus that he had been giA^en an opportunity to speak at the end of every deposition and the court Avould continue to do so. The court then adjourned. As the prisoner passed out in front of the seats assigned to tlie representatives of the press his face Avas pale but animated.

Demange, hoAvever, Avas the result of the court's decision to adjourn when applied for this morning. This is considered of grave portent, and is taken to mean an indication that the members of the court-martial have already made up their minds unfavorably to Dreyfus. iCHARLKS HARTS VS. ST.

The boys in grey ultimately landed ahead, but Ave have not got much room to smile in, and had it not been for tho regrettable accident that happened to Lynch, the point player of the Nelsons, in the fourth ganio, we may bo excused for harboring some doubt as to Avhat the final result might ha.A'e been.

(Special to Tho Tribune) Victoria, August 10.—Ncav Westminster advices- confirm tho statement wired-yesterday that R. L. Reid Avill oppose Henderson, and adds that he scarcely has a fighting chance. The evidence of the political unrest prevailing isshoAvu by the fact that tho NeAvs-Advertiser thinks that it is necessary to combat the suggestion that Peters may enter pro- viucial politics. Cotton's paper urges that while Peters has been premier of. Prince Edwards Island, affairs there are; much easier to manage than those of British Columbia, and also that Peters is too new to this province to be familiar with its requirements. This, no doubt, is another slap at Martin, Avho arrived at about the same time as Pofccis. The Times of this city in a leading editorial tonight endorses the proposal that W. W. B.

An event of more tlian passing interest to Monti-ealoi's is the early home coming of Major Gironard, the dashing young Canadian..oiiieor, whose name is almost as Avell known throughout.' tho British empire today as that of lord Kitchener, of. Khartoum, says tlio Montreal Star. Girouard's achievements in the recent Soudan campaign must be considered its being only second in importance to those of the sirdar, for Avhile tho latter put to flight the armies of the khalifa, the for-, mer to a greater extent than most people imagine made it possible for hiiii to do so. For it was to him that general Kitchener entrusted the task of engineering the construction of the Wady Haifa railway, aline that crosses the Nubian desert and saves over six hundred miles of transportation around the great bend of the Nile. Major Gironard, as has already been stated, is a Canadian by birth, having been born in Montreal on January' 2(ith, 1807. He is the son of Mr. justice Gironard, of the supreme court of Canada, and his birth is contemporaneous Avith that of tho Dominion. After completing his studios at the elementary schools at Montreal, ho attended, successively, the ...commercial academy of Three Hi vers, and the Royal military college in Kingston. He entered the latter in 1SS2. On -finishing his course in 1SS0, lie triod.to obtain a commission in tho lloyal engineers, but, failed. He also made tin unsuccessful attempt to outer the lloyal artillery. In this he was strongly opposed by his - father, who wished him to follow the profession of tin engineer, for Avhicli he had boon educated, -failing to obtain a com- . mission- in her majesty's service he entered'tlie service of the Canadian Pacific railway, and was employed for a period of/fifteen mouths on the survey and construction stall's. At the end of that time he gained his commission uas a sublieutenant in the Royal-engineers. He- Avent to Chatham,- England; whore lie remained for two years extending and perfecting his engineering studies, and was subsequently appointed superintendent of railway traffic at the Woolwich arsenal. *He filled this position for a period of five years, during Avhich .time ho gained a practical knowledge of raihvay working. He was first brought prominently before the British military authorities through the agency of a paper which he wrote in 1801, aud in which he outlined the engineering works necessary foi; the :pi?ateetioi.i of the coast Of lJUlglaiid. He was then in lu:4 24th year. ���jriiis paper =W{ts=ai'terA\\7trds=the=Snpject=0f^aii=artic]e= in thei%rtnightry Review from the pen of colonel Boxall. In tlie autumn of 1,805, he visited Oanattti. Tlie stay was a short one, however, and in the winter of iSOfij lie joined tile c&pecfitioiiai-y force uhder general Ivifcelieuer fot- the reeOn- qsiest of the Soudan, and wiis placed iu eoiniiijtnd of the railway ednsti'tietion biitalioiij wjtiv the rank of "biiiibaRlli/' Or iiiajor in the Egyptian artlly. He was present at cvtwy engagement in thjit iilemotfaljle eampaigii, which only ended with tlie iiiagnificeiit victory at Oindlirinan and tlio evacniltioii of Khar- toiun, the scene of Gordon's tragic death. Jilajor Girouartrs chief Avork iii the Soudan caiiipaign was, as litis already been stated, :the superintending of the construction Of the Wady Hal fit -railway., In this undertaking he .had to face almost insurniountabie difficulties, but his Canadian pluck and determination impelled him forward until at last the road was an accomplished *act- The route of the road was from Wady Haifa-, at the second cataract, to Harrar and Akasheh, near the fifth cataract, a total distance of 250 miles. It was rendered necessary in Order to afford speedy transportation for tlie Euglishiiind. Egyptian forces to the higher reaches of the Nile, Avhence they could bo conveyed in river steamers to Omdurman and Khartoum: The task of placing and building the necessary machinery ond Avorkshops at Wady Haifa and the organization of a construction staff of native Soudanese, was not an easy one. Then there Avere the desert storms and the heavy rains to combat. Time and time again the line Avas buried under sand or swept away iu the mullahs or water courses by the torrents of water. Iu such cases the buried rails 'were dug up and relaid, the tracks carried away Avere recovered and again put in place, and at of Credit on Sk,aguay, (J. S. Dawson City, Yul^on District. Atlin., B. C, and last, hi June, 1800, the road was completed as f.'i!' as Akasheh. Then ensued the memorable engagements at Tirkeli and Dnngola, in both of which the expeditionary force, Avith general Kitchener at its head, routed the dervishes and paved.tho way. for the further construction of the road and the advance of the English and Egyptian forces towards Omdurman and Khartoum.- During the next few months the construction of the railway was pushed forward with all possible despatch. In: a very short time Kormoh, which lies, beyond the first series of cataracts, was reached. Thence the road was continued round the southern frontier of Dongola to Moraur, at which point the work AA'as stopped until the following year. The reason for this postponement avjis that the fourth cataract, Avhich lay between 'Moraur and Abu Hamod, constituted a very dangerous and difficult.-obstacle to the forwarding of supplies by the river and to transport supplies "for OAron a small force by camels or other animals AA'as an "expcusi\\re and stupendous undertaking. The sirdar, therefore, decided to construct a railway across tho -Nubian' desert from Wady Haifa to Abu Hamod, audit was to this road that 'major Gironard devoted most of his attention. . He got his construction, battalion to work on the lino in 1807, .and thereafter the undertaking progressed at the rate of about two miles. per day. Concerning the construction of this lino the correspondent of the London Times Avrites as folIoAvs: "Great as were his achievements in ���railway construction, movement of materials and supplies, its avoII as of men over long lines of communication in 180(5, he (general Kitchener) has surpassed ��� them. in'.'.l.S07-8. , Iii no-campaign,'in any country litis the work of.a magnitude to compare Avith his ucav line from Wady Haifa across the desert to Berber and the Atbara ever been attempted. The inception of such it line was more than bold ������it Avas daring, while the-iexecution of tho Avorkjias been' signalized by the display of the highest skill in overcoming difficulties. The solution' of the transport difficulty meant the certain and relatively easy roeonquest'of the Soudan.- Sir Herbert Kitchener addressed himself Avith courage to theta.sk. He struck direct from Wady Haifa across the desert to Abu IJamed, and so gained at a bound the upper reaches of the Nile." THE BOYCOTT. All real friends of the cause of humanity and sympathizers with the oppressed will not fail to extend their best Avishes and perhaps substantial aid to labor struggling under tho heel of tyranny, but those avIio have the best interests of trades unionism at heart Avill regret the system of .terrorism adopted by the strikers of London and Cleveland. Tt is nil very avoII for Avage-earners to endeavor to improve their lot by refusing tOAVOrk until certain concessions arc made by capitalists, but it is a mistake to resort to mob' law and to boycotting, em^ broiling the whole coniiniuiity in the dispute. The power to lay all classes of eitizeiisninderaHuoyeott^ thei'n into obedience shows; the great strides which trades unionism lias imule diTring this century, but when this power is used despotically, the pendulum will begin to swing back to the other extreme. It is indeed lamentable that the cause of honest labor must suffer from the domination of half-brainexl, tyi'ithts iii the ranks. There may be dire oppression on the pitt'fc of tile ina,s,tor,,but this: is no excuse fol* iingoveruable rage on the part of the servant, when, he finds himself suddenly possessed of power. Trades Unions, so soon tis they got tlie whip hand, sometimes overstep the mark, and in their, blind stubbornness inflict irreparable injury on their own order. A number of years ago shipbuilding flourished oil tlie Thames, but the union element led to such unbearable insolence and dictatorship' oil the part of the workmen that capital Avas handicapped and the laborers soon found themselves turned .adrift, for'tlie industry had. been established on the Clyde, -where- trades unions as yet were unknown. But history repeats itself. Today the Clyde shipwrights have become saucy, ugly and imperious,,and the consequence is that capital is subjected to great losses, and is becoming more and more unable to compete with United States and Gcr- Telephone 93 FOR ICE CREAM ANB FRESH FRUIT OF ANY KIND. Come in and try our Ice Cream Soda and Refreshing Drinks. man shipbuilders. Some day the bull- headed workmen Avill wake up to find Germany monopolizing the business and themselves loft destitute. Of course, tho same conditions do not apply to London and CleAreland, but the same churlish, stubborn spirit is manifested among the strikers, and this -will inevitably bring disaster on themselves. Conciliation is tho only true Avatchword both in the camp of labor and of capital. Emancipation is to be secured not by violence nor by ungovernable excess, but by moderation and peaceful methods. The Virtue of Care. Toronto Tolcgram. Boys need not be taught to go around trembling and fearful that the next breath may be their last, but instruction in the habit of carefulness should be a part of every boy's education. Perhaps the public schools cannot be expected to educate pupils in the art of taking care of their OAvn valuable lives. Yet it is true that the educational authorities might do Avorse than give tho virtue of carefulness a place on the public school programme. A good half and more of the tragedies which darken the brightness of these summer days are due to carelessness.

The institution of property has been piwcd by experience asAvell as shown by reason to be vital to industry and civilization. Communistic experiments have had no lasting success. The whole primeval history of man may, in fact, be stiid to haAre been an experiment in common ownership, which failed and gave place to1 bhe system of private property, though traces of it still remain iu Russia, Afghanistan and Hindostan. Yet instances of the unequal and unjust distribution of property often occur, Avhieh incline us to sympathize with . communistic aspirations. The other day wo had a glowing account of a party of youthful', heirs of American multi-millionaires who, had just left college setting out on a tour round the Avorld Avith a corps of attendants and a fabulous amount of baggage. These boys had never done, nor will the3r ever do, a stroke of work with, hand or' brain; probably they will never do society any sort of good. It, is too likely that they may do society not'a little harm. Yet the product of countless laborers is devoted to their pleasures ; they are Avorshipped lords of the community, revelling in luxury and splendor, while those by whose labor their expenditure is supported are struggling, Avith their families, for bare bread. c,���'...

Qilker The Furnisher ©flSsi i . s.&fiufel^Oo^ • Stra"tTordyShoe;^Q.i7Amb\\"",Soi-*: 'f^A^I^B^^^ THE LOCAL NEWS OF THE TOWN An Old-Time Official. A. AV. Vowell of Victoria, swpei'intend- pnt of Indian agencies in liribi.sh (Joluin- bia, was in Nelson yesterday after a business trip through East Kootenay. Like all other arrivals from tliat section, he reports remarkable activity in prospecting and mining, and lie predicts .a great future for Mast Kootenay. ]\\Ir. Vowell, who is best known to all the old-time residents of the Kooteiiays as "the.judge," was foi; many years in the employ of the province in different ol'(icial capacities. In the (iO's he was iu the Big .Bend, in the 7()'s in Cassiar, and in the SO's he was government; agent; for both Mast and West Kootenay. In the early days lie invested in Nelson real estate, and had Ins kept his holdings he would today be several thousand dollars better oil". On his return to tho Coast, he will take a long trip among the Indians on Van- cony or Island. Two Wires to Greenwood. The Spokane Northern Telegraph Company, whose northern terminus in Kootenay is at Nelson, has decided to extend its lines into the Boundary country with a temporary terminus at/Grehwood, where it will compete with the C.P.R. telegraph company, as it already does in southwest. Kootenay. Tlie now line will start; from Marcus and reach Greenwood via Grand Forks. All the necessary materials liave been purchased, the work of construction ;bcgiiis this week and will be rushed'to completion. Nelson is Slowly, But Surely, Getting There. If it can be done without bringing on a rate Avar, Nelson is to have the same rate on freight from St. 'Paul and Duhith. as Spokane. The distance from these points to Nelson via'the Canadian Pacific and the Crow's Nosfc Pass roads is tliirby- eight miles less than from tlie same points' to Spokane by either tlie Northe.nr Pacific or tho Great Northern "roads.- Nelson is sure to become to southeastern" British Columbia what Spokans is to northeastern Wash-, ingbon. .' . ' ■ '"- The College of Physicians and Surgeons have instructed Elliot <& Lennie to institute proceedings againsb Dr. Rose, the newly-appointed house surgeon of the Kootenay Lake general hospital. Dr. Rose has resigned his, position as house surgeon, but will remain at the hospital-.: until he has qualified under the provincial; stbab\\i%s. men, hose races and bicycle races. There will also lie prizes for the best float in the trades' procession and the best decorated house. The committee hopes to raise $.'];■><)() which it thinks will ensure a first class celebration. .J. C Schimmerhorn, manager of J. A. Say ward's lumberyard at Nelson, returned yesterday from Pilot Bay. The company's mill received this week a consignment of four* hundred thousand feet; of logs from Goat river, which will be cut into lumber for the Nelson market. Dave McBcath has made good progress wilh the wagon road from Salnio to the Vellowslone mine. .It will probably be finished the beginning of next week, and would have been before but for the wot weather. Dave is considered to have made a very quick .job of it. The road is twelve miles long. With the exception of a few small fittings overlooked by the manufacturers, all tho machinery at the sampling works is now installed, and the mill is expected to bo- running about the end of the month. ; Five thousand feet of pipe was unloaded yesterday at Kootenay Crossing for the William Hamilton Company of Peterborough, Ontario, to connect the Duncan Mines compressor plant with the Granite mine. The flume from Sandy creek has been connected with the mill, necessitating tlie laying of 2.150 feet of -water pipe. BUSINESS MENTION.
