Frl, (By Cable.1 The ronnnll of ir.lnln
tr decided lo pardon Iireylu Id principle,
'flie pardon will take effect In a few Any.
Dreylu has relinquished hi appeal for a
reversal of the judgment of the court-mar-
ll In (aid that Dreyfus will be seut abroad
before the roniultntlon of hla pardon, In
( order to avoid demonstrations.
. The official announcement wa made lu
tlii form, In order to avoid demonstration
any kind at limine and lu I'nrle. Hut
the pardon of breylus In not merely Imrnl
ueot, but win actually signed. Measure
bave been taken In Ilenues lu connection
ulth It, and It will hare a good tfluct neu
trally. 'i'li decision of the Cabinet to pardon
I'reyfua created less iutt rest lu Tarls than
would tba result of u big horse race. In
tuot. It may be said that It caused DO enclte
aaBLt whatever. 'J'Uer una no rlotluK on

the Libre 1'arole, where a crowd usually na
omble lu the evening to rbzo upon Ihe
hog colored transtiaieuolos oubilde tho
Window of the lending nutl-Homlte organ,
.hero was not the slightest gathering or the
luiuteat sign of n demonstration either for
-r against Dreyfus.
Ou would think tbnt Ihe fire of the Drey
fus aeltai Ion had hurued Itself out. The
aull-Dreyfueard eveulug papers tried to In
luierent Into the government's action
' a rabid attack upou 1'realdent Iioubet,
but their effort were futile.
The peaceful crowds that filled the tnbles
lu front of the ca(t'. sipping their nflcr-dlu-nerronVe,
looked at tho newsboys who dis
played the front pages of these shoots with
I heir violent bend Hues, but utterly refused
toetiolted. The majority did not eveu
... tlieous the matter, or only made the pa
tuic remark thut the decision m Just what
bad beu expected nud predicted by every
partisan newspaper since the Betines court
martial delivered Its verdict.
The aoil-Dreyfusnrd newspaper Bolr had
the most sensational cnotlon, two line of
enormous letter extending across the en
tire front page, announcing "The Traitor
Dreyfus Pardoned. Outrage ou the Aruiy."
Then, In the course of an article violently
altaoklug President Loubet, It said: "Lou
litt lias given himself a coup de grace lu
jTdonlng Dreyfus. IU should bo prot
ested for eniumlitlng uu outrage upou tho
army, for bl decision amounts to this. Uy
atruka of the pen be has destroyed tue
fleet of the sentences of two courts-mnr-ttal,
and bos declared that two uillltury
courts have lied."
The Bolr adds: "The alTalr has become
grave when the chief of state assumes the
leadership of the antl-milltary movement
4 pardon a confessed traitor, tinier the
pretext that he hits been condemned twice,
, iuetead of once."

Norfolk, Vs., (Special. )-The ruins of the
Hospital ot St. Vincent de Paul have yielded
up four bodies to the firemen's search.
The dead are: Mrs. Mnrgaret McEwen,
seventy years of age, a lady of weak wind,
who was there for safekeeping. The only
way she oould be Identified was by hot ear
rings, the body being so badly burned.
Mrs. Elizabeth White, an old lady who
had beeu nt ihe hospital for a long time as
n boarder. She was on the touch Moor, and
the body bad fallen through to the third.
She was Identified by the structure of her
body.
Cherry Boswell, a Ihree-yenr-old child,
from Lewiston, N. C, who had a clubfoot,
and was thore for treatment.
Miss Plppen, of North Cnrnllua, who had
Just entered the hospital, nud was to bnvo
been operated upon. The body was found
In the ruins of tho bed in which she slept.
MIssTlppen was from Tarboro, N. C.
Flremai Thomas A. Burrct, of the Qucn
Street Euglnebouse, leg broken, right arm
Iractured In three places, and cut on fore
head. He is still alive, but bus not regained
consciousness, nud but little hope ot bis re
covery Is entertained.
Fireman llobcrt A. Foster, driver, hurt
about the head, but not seriously.
Barrett, Foster and several other firemen
had run a line of hose through thn main en
trance ot the building, aud wore driven out
either by the lire and :noke or by premoni
tion of an Impending collapse above them.
Hud they remained lu the poroh they would
not hnvebeo i Injured ;but,n they went dowu
Into the yard, a mas of timber, brick wall,
etc., pitched out aud down Irora above
them.
Miss Kate Dolun, of Washington, D. C,
one of the nurses of the Institution, jumped
the stairwell from the third story to the

Miss Teresa Glass, of Blchtnond, Vs., nlo
a nurse, Is badly burned about one bund and
foot, and slightly about the face. She wus
carried to a residence on Wood street.
The property loss Is very large, and tho
Insurance la comparatively small. The
former will reach the neighborhood ot
000, and tho latter Is only some thirty or
forty thousand dollnrs. There were very
many narrow escapes from death nnd many
heroic rescues by the firemen, who, despite
tbe fact that they were exhausted by the
large lire Just preceding the hospital holo
caust, worked to save human life as though
their own was ut stake. B-sldes, they were
still further handicapped by the absence of
thn eighty-foot extension ladder.
The firemen from Portsmouth and tho
navy yurd apparatus, manned by marines,
rendered valuable assistance. They re
sponded as quickly ns railed upon by Chief
llyan, of Norfolk. Tbe light against tho
devouring element was a long one, but tho
north wing and n portion of tbe west wing
were sated. The remalner of tho immense
Institution of mercy lies iu ruins. As soon
astthe ruin had ceased blazing, tho searoh
for the bodies of tho victims begnn. Ambu
lance bad been sent to every bouse that had
offered asylum to the Inmates of tho hospital
for Information, nnd still tbe list of missing
was large. The authorities ot tbe hospital
declined to make tho name public uutll
they woro accounted for In some manner.
Tho firemen discovered Mrs. Mi Ewen's
body at the window of what bad been her
room on the flourtti floor. All the bodies
discovered were on the upper floors, and
the positions In which they were found in
dicated that the victims had made every
effort to escape. They wero all charred to
crisps.

Admiral von Diedrlcbs, in Maniln bay,
shortly after tho destruction of Admiral

lu conversation:
"I was maintaining n strict blockade of

Identity of every vessel that eutered the

ing officers acted discreetly and tactfully,
giving no offense to tho naval reprosonta
tlvus of any power except Germany. I
don't know why Vlce-Admlrnl vou Diedrlcbs
should have felt aggrieved. 1 always at
tributed his protest to ft luck of knowledge
of International laws.
"Admiral von Diedrlcbs sent bis flag licu
tannnt lo me with a list of complaints that
ha wished to make against tho way I treated
the ships under his command. They luid
exjiausted my patience. 1 hud beeu for
beurlng in the extreme, and this rotest or

"What Is It you wan:'.' Do you want
