he added with a final effort, "to auajiend
the proceeding."
The ahut had been heard 2D0 yard
away in the Hue de la Gare. where a
crowd had gathered a uaual, to witneai
the arrival of the principal peraonairei
connected wlib the court-martial. The
MH'tatora ran in the direction whence
the ahooting bad occured, followed br
K-ndiirine on lioraeback. The ehootinK
wa also heard at the H. George's bar
rack, acroea the river, where it waa
oon knuan that M. Labori had been attacked.
The wounded man aiked lo have a
carriage called to convey him to In
residence, and to have Ir. Iteclua sum
moned. When the doctor arrived, he
knelt bwideM. LaWi, putting a bottle
of amellini salt to his nostril. Around
these central figures were grouiied the
p.-ctatora, all deeply affected, some, in
deed, crying like children. At a little
distance wa gathered another group,
the central figure of which waa the com
missary of olice, notebook In hand,
taking down the testimony of the eye
, witneHes of the affair.
The scene of this pathetic picture was
J a duty high road, the dark, green, slow
river Vilaine on one side, and on the
other side scattered houses, with a gap
jiiBt opposite the spot through which
could be seen a green meadow with a
stream flowing through it, and bevond
that the backs of a row of houaes.
The road that M. Labori had followed
tapered away back from the scene of the
tragedy, with a row of trees along the
border of the Vilaine, under whoe leafy
shelter M. Labori had Walked to perhaps
his death.
M. Laboii, on falling, retained pre
sence of mind enough to arrange his
dark morocco wallet in which he car
ried Ins papers under bis bead for a pil

j raised himself and dropped his head In

Madame Labori, who la an American
lady, was notified, and rushed to her
husband's side, doinjj everything possi
ble to esw hi agony. It is reported
that the famous lawyer said, as he lav
woun led on the groftnd :
"I may die from this, but Dreyfus I
saved."
l.sl.oiT. Condition Jlatlxr.
Kk-xmts, Aug. 15. At 8 o'clock this
evening M. Labori was removed In an
ambulance to the residence of I'rofessor
Hash, In the suburb of Itennet. He
stood the journey well, although natu
rally fattened. The doctors tonik-ht are
extremely hopeful of a speedy recovery,
but consider it would be unwise for him
to return to court until there ia absolu
lely no danger of a relapse. (
M. Ieinange has decided to ask for
an adjournment, which ha necessitated
a written application by both M. Lem-
ariKeand Captain Dreyfus, who have
already sent lettera to the president of
of the court-martial. Cjlonel Jmunati.
will undoubtedly accede to the request,
but he cannot grant an adjournment for
more than two days, when the applica

fus wants tlio sessions poitponed until
Monday next, when it is expected M.
Labori will be able to be present.
The corresKjiident of the Associated
I'resa obtained complete corroboration
of the statement that the pockets of La
bori s coat were rilled yesterday while he
was lying on the around wounded. Not
only were the pocketaof his coat emptied,
but an attempt was made to steal the

Secretary Root waa very much arstl-
fled with the Information which Colonel
Kennon conveyed. The secretary baa
been receiving a great mass of docu
ments and data upon Cuba and I'orto
Hico. Some of the alleged facts art)
diametrically opposite to esch other, and.
the aecrelary la now trying to reconcile
the differences and sift the truth.

Dreyfus has wiitien two letters to M.
Labori. The first, on bearing the news
of the attempt to murder the lawyer, is
a Spontaneous exnresaion of bia sharked
feelings. The second is a touching epis

grets at the dastar Jly outrage, aud pro
found gratitude to M. Labori for his re
covery. Court Ilrruaril to Adjourn.
ItsNKsi, Aug. 16 i:aO A. M. The
proceedings opened without disorder.
Owing to the opposition of Major
Carrier, the government commissary,
the court-martial has refused the appli
cation of M. Dumange for an adjournment
of the trial until Monday.

Outbreaks are fesred, particularly in
Cebu, where some of the leading men
have Kone over to the insurrection.
Many of the wealthv Inhabitants are
preparing to leave the island.
fvinores Torcnte and Mellixa, supreme
court justices from Negros and Cebu,
have gone thither from Manila to use
their influence against the insurrection.
The results of the autonomist govern
ment in Negros are disappointing. In

Copp, waa under the Impression that the
town had been reoccupied by the insur

the natives of the whole lake region. It
is asserted there that the officers and

were unloading a barge of stones beside
the river heard the shouts of "Murder!
Stop him I" raised by the pursuers, and
one of them placed himself in the way
of the murderer, who, covering him with
a revo.Ver. shouted. "Let ma miii. T
have shot Dreyfus." The man was so
taken back that he drew aside and al
lowed the assassin to proceed. Still
further particulars show that M. Labori
and his wife left their house together,
but just before the outrage she turned
back, having forgot her card of admis
sion to tho court. While she was gone,
M. Labori, met Colonel Piquart and M.
(last. Immediately afterwards a man
shot him. Ilia wife arrived while M.
Labori was lvimr on the around and
Colonel Picquart and M. Cast were pur
suing tue murderer. M. Labori turned
to his wife and said: "Goto the court
and ask them to suspend the sitting."
Mine. Labori ran into court, gave the
news that her husband had been shot
and ran back to him. She sat down on
the ground beside her husbund and took
his head in hor lap. During the interval
while Colonol Picquart and M. Cast were
pursuing the murderer, and before Mme.
Labori arrived, M. Laborl.thinking him
self mortally wounded, said to a bystand
er: It I die, tell my wife my last
thoughts were for her."
After the shooting the would-be mur
derer ran across the fields until he
reached a railroad ; he dashed across the
track in front of train just arriving,
and disappeared in the dense woods.
Colonel Picquart and IS.. Gash pursued
the murderer for some distance, but. as
'both were heavy men, they were unable
to continue the pursuit, and returned to
Washington, Aug. 15. General
Brooke will be called to Washington to
consult with Secretary Root concerning
affairs in Cuba. The secretary desires
to have the benefit of General Brooke's
knowledge of things in the island before
he reaches definite conclusions aa to a
future iKilicy for Cuba. No date has
been fixed for General Brook's visit, but
it will no doubt be determined by the
developments ot the situation and before
the secretary begins his antual report to
the president.
Colonel Kennon, of the Thirty-fourth
infantry, recently apiointed, but who
has been on duty at Havana as assist
ant adjutant-general, had a long confer
ence with secretary Root today. Colonel
Kennon so impressed President Mc
Kinlev With the information hfthmntrbt

it advisable for him to talk with Secre
tary Root. Colonel Kennon assured
both the president and Secretary Root
that the course which General Brooke
is pursuing meets with general approval
and ia of tbat careful and conservative
nature required by the conditions in the
island. It is necessary to make radical
changes, but the policy of the general
is to make the old fit the new with as
little friction as possible.
As to elections in Cuba, Colonel Ken
non told the secretary that he thought
the time is still somewhat distant when
they can be held to advantage. By a
provision in the peace treaty, the Span
ish residents in the island were given
one year from the day ot exchange of
ratifications in which to declare their
prelerence as to citizenship. Elections
cannot be held, he said, until after the
year elapses in justice to this clas3, The
desirability of leaving the matter open is
apparent, said Colonel Kennon, because
a large proportion of the property is
owned by Spanish subjects, and if it can
be demonstrated to them what their in
terests will be in becoming Cuban citi
xens, it will be better for the future of
the Island.
Colonel Kennon said the people of
Cuba are fast coming to the conclusion
that the interests ot all will be best sub
served by the people accepting Cuban
citixenship, and by the Cuban and Span
iard classes acting in harmony, and
while they do not mix well at present,
the feeling of irritation is wearing away.
The matter of suffrage is one, the colonel
said, that must be considered The dis
