ness by the DraYfus Affair.

afternoon the United Press correspond
ent saw many newspaper vendors selling
a sheet entitled "The Ant-Prussian." The

to stop them. The excitement attendant
on the depreciation of Capt. Dreyfus has
given fresh impetus to the anti-German
agitation. At no time since the Empress
Frederick visited Paris has the hatred of
Germany been more in evidence.

fairs who has gone to Cannes for his
health was summoned to Paris last even
ing. Although far from well, he left
Cannes at once and arrived here this
evening. 1t is rumored that his return is
due to a grave international question.
The Matin prints a report that Dreyfus
said TO one of his guards just before his
degradation: Il did hand over docu-
ments to Germany, but they were only a
bait / had been able to keep it up I
should have got eventually documents Of
capital importance from the Germans"
The Matin remarks that this report IS gem
orally discredited.
Other newspapers say that Capt. Drey-
fus told Of compromising memorandum.
The sole evidence on which he was con-
victed, was found in the drawer of a cer-
tain embassy which he would not name.
The memorandum mentioned three doc
uments sent with it to the embassy. One
of these documents was confidential and
highly important. The others amounted
to nothing. Capt. Dreyfus is said TO have
related that of the five experts who eN-
amined the handwriting, three decided
the memoranda 10 be his and two declared
the characters to be those of another
