Xkw Yoiib, Aur. 28. A sjioaiiil to tho

Kirn wnsdiscovurwl in thu boyn and
Birls orjihiin uayluni coniicoti-d with
t't. Anne's convent, at Sparkill, ltock
land county, nt 1 n. in. thiu inorniujr,
but not boforu tho ontlro Htructuro, n
fraino building, was wrapped in ilatnus.
Many of tho inmates, children, woro
burned and suffocated, it was rojwrled
early tills morning. The exact number
of the dead could not bo told at .'1:15 a.
m., when tho first dispatches reached
this city, (ieorgo A. Martino, of Spark
ill, ono of those who llrst discovered tho
firo, telephoned to Nyaek for assistance.
Mnzuppa engine company responded
from that place. Kight Doctorsalso went
to the asylum from Xvack. A reouest
for aid was telephoned to l'ledmont,
Kmplro ongino compnny was dispatched
from Piedmont to thu scene of tho llro.
Piedmont is this side of Nyack, and
lioth enginos, with their complement!
of tiro lighters, arrived at about tho
same time.
Tho asylum, which is conducted by
tho Sisters of Morcy, held about 1000
children. It was a long, frame building,
three stories high.
Tho Are was not discovered until tho
whole building was ouo mass of llamus.
The children hud scant chance for es
cape. Social trains over tho New Jer
sey Northern road woro rushed to tho
nearest railroad station. Tho asylum
is situated between Sparkill mid Orange
burg. Tho scenes at the coiillagratiou woro
heartrending. Tho children cliul in their
nightrolHW, could lw seen falling back
ward into the llamos and smoko, while
tho shrieks of tho dying could bo hoard
alwvo tho crackle of tho devouring
llamos. Soma of tho children woro
crippled for life by jumping from tho
windows. Many of tho sinters also wore
injured, while others lost their lives
heroically whilo trying to rescue their
charges.
Although the service froni-tho (Ire de
partments from.uoighlioriug places had
(won promptly rondarod, tho engines ur
ried too Into to Ihi effective in saving
life or projiorty.
The fire started on tho upper floor of
tho three story building. Nourly .'WO
occupants of tho convent occupied
rooms on this floor, and all tho dormi
tories were lighted with kerosene
lumps. There is Ifttlo doubt that the
tiro was caused by tho oxplosiou of ono
of thorn lumps. The fire spread rapidly
upward and burned through tho shingle
roof of thu building In two plucax. At
the time oftliB discovery tho lire hud
madu such prograas that the slaters
eould not awake the hundreds of their
children under tliolr care, marshal them
in order and march them from the
building, as was their practleu at II ru
drill. Muuy of the little vletimi were
stiffoealed in their sleep.
but went back to savo n baby and or
solf and six of the sisters Jumped from
tho Becond, third and fourth floors of tho
building but only one. of the Bisters,
Bertrnnd was seriously injured.

to avoid arrest.
General lloisdelTre was not present
today and it is rumored, that ho is do
sirens of leaving tho sinking ship of tho

Center of interest was in Captain
Kreystmottor, who tea tilled so favorably
for Dreyfus Saturday.
Not u single uniformed olllcor spoko
to him. which Is a clear Indication of
the determination military clique to
ostrucizo him.
After two witnesses had tcstlllcd and
argued against Dertllllou's system, It
was the opinion of tho .sympathizer for
Dreyfus that if tho statements of tho
witnesses was correct, thoy had simply
pulverized Uortllllon. Tho latter wished
to reply, but Colnnul Jouiinsto declined
to allow the specialist logo over tho ov
deuce again.
Churavuy, an expert who had pre
viously declared that Dreyfus was the
author of the Ixirdereuu confessed that
he had made an error and was now con
vinced that Kstorhur.y, not Dreyfus,
wrote thu bordereau. Tho announce
meut made u deep impression on thu
court.
The noxt witness, Pelllor, testified
favorably to tho prisoners. Cordlor, an
othor export, was convinced that tho
bordereau was not written by I'lstlujjr
hazy, but could not say it was Written
by Dreyfus. Tho final witness, Varl
naud, maintained his declaration made
lntforo tho court of cassation that tho
bordereau was not written by tfstur
hazy. Pahis, Aug. 28. ThocablnothuH about
