"Governor Stone and fellow cltlsens: "I am. glad to participate with the families, friends and follow cltlsens of tho Tenth Pennsylvania volunteers In this glud reunion. "You have earned the plaudits, not alone of the people of Pennsylvania, but of the whole nation. Your return has been the signal for a great demon strntion of popular regard from your landing In the Golden Gate on the Pa I clflo to your honie coming and here you j find a warmth of welcome and a ; greeting from Joyous hearts which tell J better than words the estimate of your countrymen and their high apprecia- Hon of the services you have rendered i the country. .You made sector' and permanent the victory of Dewey. You added new glory to American arms. You and your brave comrades engaged on other fields of conflict have enlarged the map of the United States and ex tended the Jurisdiction of American liberty. "But while wo share In the Joy that Is curs, there remain with us softened and hallowed memories of those who went forth with you, not found In your ranks today. Your noble colonel, de voted to his men, beloved by his com nmnd and respected by his superior of ficers gave his life to this country with many othenj of his comrades. The na tion sorrow' with the bereaved. The heroos died for their country and there Is no nobler death. Our troops ropre- en ted the truth and conaclence, tba pure and the patrlotlam of tbalr coun try. Whether In Cuba, Porto Rico or the 1'hlllpplnea or at homo awaiting order, they did their full duty and all ought the poa t of freateat peril. They never faltered. Tbe eighth army corp. In the' Philippines baa made s proud and exceptional record. Privi leged to be mustered out In April when the raUflcatlona ot U treaty of peace were exchanged, they did not claim the privtkf -HSex declined , It' .They voluntarily remained In the aervice and declared their purposr to atay tintjl their placea could bp filled by new lev lea, and longer If tbe government need ed their aervlca, and they understood It waa not to be In camp or garrison, free frum danger, but on the battle Una were exposure and death confronted tbem and where both have exacted their victim. , v -'I f '-i "They did not atack anna. They did not run away. Tbey were not awing: tbe Insurgent In tba Philippines or tbelr aympathlsere at borne. They bad no part or patience with tba men, few In number, happily, who would have rejoiced to have seen tbem lay down their arms In the presence of an enemy whom they had Just emancipated from Bpanlah rule, and who ahould have been our firmest friend. Tbey furnished an example of devotion and sacrlllce which will brighten the glorWus record If American valor., They have secured not alone tbe grat itude of the government and tbe peo ple, but for themselves and their de scendants an Imperishable destination. They may not fully appreciate, and the country may not, the heroism of their conduct and Its Important support to the government. I think I do and so I am here to express It The mighty army of volunteers and regulars, numbering over 150,000. which last year responded to the call of tbe government with an alacrity without precedent parallel, by tbe terms of their enlistment were to be musUred out with all of the regulars above 7, 000 men when peace with Spain was ef fected. Peace brought up the Philip pines by treaty cession from Spain. The senate of tbe United SUtes rati fied the treaty. Every step taken waa In obedience to the.requirements of that legislation. It became our territory and la ours as much aa the Louisiana purchase or Texas or Alaska. A body of Insurgents.

' These loyal volunteers In the Philippines aald: ' We will stay until the government can organize an army at home :and transport them to the seat of hostilities.' ,. , "They did stay; cheerfully, uncom plainingly, patriotically. They suffered and sacrificed;- they fought and fell; thoy drove back and punished the reb els who resisted federal authority, and who with force attacked the oovereign ty of the United States in its newly acquired territory. Without them then we would have been practically help less on land, our flag would have had Its flrat stuln and the American name Its first Ignominy. The brilliant vic tories of the army and navy In the bay and the city of Manila would have j ben won In vain, our obligations to civilization would have remained tem porarily unperformed, chaos would have rolgned. and whatever govern ment there was would have been by tho will of one man and not by the consent of the governed.

INDIAN TRIBESMEN ' ARB ONE THE WAR PATH. Three Apaches Murdered by New Mex ico Tribe In Arixona-Furtous put break Expected to Follow., JEROME. Aug. J8. Jerome was thrown Into a fever of excltmept to day by the sudden appearance of a band ot Apaches in war paint. The leaders of the tribe stopped and pur chased a large supply of- ammunition and hastily left for Red Rock. The band was composed exclusively . ot bucks. A mounted correspondent of the As sociated Press was permitted to accom pany thm on their journey of twenty miles over the roughest country Im aginable. -In a canyon were the re mains of a camp Are and nearby a wig wam. In front of the wigwam was the body of a squaw and papoose, while a few rods in front lay a back. "All three had been horribly mutilated and scalped. The. hands and feet were cut off. Th; Indian formed a circle abotlt the body and on the dismembered bod ies swore to 'wreak awful vengeance. The nnme . Zunl, occurred aianx times. The bodies were buried near the scen of the crime and the band took a traif to tho north. The Zunl's are a New Mexico tribe, while the Apaches are of Arizona. Bitter enmity has existed for years between the tribes, but a truce had put an end to hostilities for a long time. The three muredered Indians had left their reservation near Camp Verde and were surprised by the band of Zunls. Th Apaches took a trail In the di rection of New Mewlco and old set tlers fear that a furious outbreak will follow and end In the extermination of one of the tribes.

RE.VNE3, Aug. H The oalance of the evidence today, for change, wa in favor of 'Dreyfus. ' Five witnesses were for him and two against bim. The most Interesting testimony, waa that of Chief Hand Writing- Expert Charvay, who had come to declare that he had ' changed entirely bis oplolon,' which. In 1894 was against and now1 la In favor of Dreyfus, who, he today af firmed was not the author of th bordereau. Ills candid confession . of error was received with murmurs of satisfaction tn the court which became a discreet applause, tn spite of Colonel JouaDSter's patent disapproval, when he solemnly added: "I declare here, on my soul and con science, that the bordereau was writ ten by Esterhaiy." The most Important Incident, bow ever, was Colonel Jouanste's accusation to Major Carrier and the request that the rogatory committee be Instructed to take Colonel Paty du Clam's deposi tion. ' ' ' The Initiative came purely from the government commissary, M. Labor! and Demange having no faith tn such measures because Paty ou Clam being a Witness for 'the prosecution. Major Carrier will simply prepare a list of ' questions which the examining magls- trate will put to Paty da Clam at hi residence, and nobody supposes that the witness will be very much embar rassed by the Interrogatories.
