JUSTICE For nevus =
French Cabinet Decides in Favor
of Revision.
AND THE PEOPLE APPROVE
The Documents to Be Sent to the Court
of Cessation. The Minster of Justice }
Has Announced that lie Has Given In-
struction to Proceed Against Any One
Attacking the Army.
Paris, Sept. 27.——At a meeting of the
cabinet Monday morning, all the min-
isters being present, a. decision was
taken in favor of a revision of the trial
of Albert Dreyfus, the captain of artil-
lery who was degraded on charges of
selling military secrets to a foreign
power, and sentenced to imprisonment
0n Devil’s island, near Cayenne, and
the documents in the case will be sent
to the court of cessation.
The crowds of people outside the min-
istry of the interior, where the cabinet
council was held, loudly cheered the
ministers, and there were shouts of
“Vive Brisson!" “Vive la revision!"
The cabinet ordered the minister of
justice, M. Sarrien, to lay before the
court of cessation the petition of Mme.
Dreyfus, wife of .thc prisoner of DeVIl’s
island, for a revision of her husband’s
case.
The court, therefore, will decidelthe
legal question as to whether the first
trial of Captain Dreyfus was vitiated
by the forgery committed by the late
Lieutenant Colonel Henry, who was a
witness tkfore the court martial, and
who confessed to having forged a doc-
ument in the case.
The minister of justice has announc-
ed that he has given instructions that
proceedings are to be taken immedi-
ately against any one attacking the
army.
Henri Rochefort, in his paper, the
Intransigeant, accuses Major Esterha-
zy of having been bribéd by the so-
called Dreyfus syndicate, to “cover
himself with dishonor by confession to
a forgery, of which charge he was
twice acquitted.” M. Rochefort asserts
that he paid Esterhazy 1,000 francs fo
copies of all the documents in the cas ,
and that, in addition, with two other
newspaper men, he paid Esterhazy,
who was literally without a cerftime,
300 francs monthly to prevent him from
dying of hunger while waiting to obtain
a pension.
Continuing, M. Rochefort says: “Re-
cently, without any apparent incentive,
Esterhazy mysteriously went to Lon-
don, abandoning his three hundred
francs monthly. Why this emigration?
Who paid for his journey? With
what money has Esterhazy paid for
his meals?"
The Figaro says: “The government
may safely decide in favor of or
against a revision, but its duty is to
come to a prompt determination.”
M. Clemenceau, [in the Aurore, says
“France is divided into two camps,
those who conceive that the interests
of the- country depend upon the con-
cealment of facts by lies, and those
who have a sufficiently high esteem
for the country not to separate patri-
otism from the aspirations of justice
and truth.”
A Bank Teller Shot.
Blissfi-eld, Mich, Sept. 27.-Whi1e pas-
sing the postofllce here at about 12.3
o’clock Sunday morning, Samuel Roth-
fuss, teller in the Blissfield State Bank,
was held up by robbers intent upon
robbing the postoffice. . '
’l‘hey commanded him to hold up his
hands, and in doing so he exposed a
revolver, whereupon one of the men
fired upon him;
Rothfuss fell to the sidewalk, but re-
turned the fire, firing‘ three shots,
which failed to take effect, and the
robbers escaped with a stolen team.

Will Be Plead lll’ental Irresponsibllity for
Remarks About Sampson and Evans?
> Denver, COL, Sept. 27.—The court
martial convened for the trial of Chap-
} lain Joseph P. .McIntyre of the battle-
ship Oregon met here at 1 o'clock yes-
terday afternoon. It was ushered in.
with a sensation. ' '
Instead of the calling of witnesses to
inaugurate the trial, as is customary,
Attorney Earl M. Cranston, attorney
for the accused, made an address to the
court.
Although the text of that address is
unknown, the doors being closed, those
who are best qualified to judge of such
matters, assert that it is a. practical
admission of the charges and specifi-
cations and a, propositidn to submit
to the court the expert testimony of
Drs. Eskridge and Pershing.
These two physicians are specialists
in nervous disorders. They made an
examination of Chaplain McIntyre on
Saturday. This was done. at the in-
stance of friends of McIntyre, who
think that by_reason of great mental
excitement resulting from his experi-
ence in the Santiago campaign he was
not responsible for utterances he may
have made in his lecturedelivered here
on. August 8.
The object sought in trying to have
the testimony of these specialists sub-
mittedwculd obviously ._be to waive a
trial and throw the chaplain on the
mercy of the court. '
The charges against Chaplain McIn-
tyre are three: Scandalous conduct
tending to the destruction of good mor-
als, conduct to the prejudice of good
order and discipline, and conduct un-
becoming an officer of the United States
navy. '
The specifications are ten in number
and comprise quotations from a news-
paper report of the lecture which the
chaplainldelivered in the Trinity Meth-
odist Episcopal church here on August
8, and in which he is alleged to have
questioned the honesty of Admiral
Sampson and the courage of Captain
Robley D. Evans.
THE ARMY HOSPITAL DISPUTE.
The Conflict Between the Division and
Regimental Systems.
Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. 27.—Ofiicers
of the Twenty-fourth Michigan regi-
ment are very indignant over a dis~
patch printed'in the New York Herald
from Washington saying that their
regimental hospital is in bad condition.
They claim that this report is part of
a conspiracy of the medical department
to put regimental hospitals in bad re.-
pute, so that'the divisional system may
be maintained.
The Michigan regiment made such
a vigorous protest against the divis-
ional hospital that they were allowed
to restore regimental hospitals. '
Colonel Gardiner was very indignant
yesterday morning and emphatically
denied that the charges were true.
Surgeon H. A. Haze characterized the
statements as utterly without founda-
tion. The officers of the regiment are
determined to uphold their regimental
hospital, and have large numbers of
affidavits to prove its superiority over
the division system.
Democratic Convention. ~
Syracuse, Sept. 27.—The Democratic
politicians of the Empire state are
gathering here for the convention
which opens to-morrow. ‘
Mr. Croker still avers that he has no
candidate and that Tammany has
none. Senator McCarren said yesterday
that the strongest man would win, and
that without any dictation from any-
body. As to who that man is the sena-
tor says he knows no more than the
average citizen.
The names of Van Wyck, Herrick, Ti-
tus and Earl have been prominently
mentioned for the office of governor.
‘* Empire State Politics
Saratoga. N. Y., Sept. 27.——-To-day at
ten o’clock will be called 1.0 order tile
state Republican convention. A com-
plete state ticket is to be nominated.
Much interest has centered in the gu-
bernatorial contest between Hon. Theo-
dore Roosevelt and the present encum-
bent, Hon. Frank S. Black. It now
looks as if Roosevelt would be named
on the first ballot. Beside the 700 odd
delegates the town is well filled with
prominent Republican politicians from
all parts of the state-and more than or-
dinary interest is manifested.

Smith failed to respond when the

iivering a blow. Smith showeda swol-
len wrist as evidence that his state-
ment was correct.
The Situation in China,
Washington, Sept. 27.——Mr. Wu Ting
Fang, the hinese minister, said yester-
day that he had received no word con-
cerning the reported death of the em-
peror beyond press reports. The. troub-
lous condition of affairs in China is
exciting much apprehension here.
mainly because of the threatening atti-
tude of the great powers and their
readiness to seize upon any pretext for
further cncroachmcnts upon Chinese
iterritory. « .
