phyxiating themselves with charcoal
fumes at their residence on the Ave
nue. Marceau. The porter of the house
found their bodies I'm their apartments.
They were lying on the floor in the
bedroom OF the youngest child.
Nine Dreyfus last week made ex-
tensive purchases of furs and clothing
for the children and was getting ready
to visit her sister in London. This
seems to show that she had had no
inklng Of her husbands intentions at
that time and leads friends Of the fami-
" 70 believe that II was only under his
overmastering influence that she agreed
TO share his fate. II Is not believed
that the Captain Dreyfus AFFAIR was an
important factor in the suicide.
Dreyfus left a'letter for the commits

400 francs with which TO defray the
expenses OF the funeral OF the family
He also left a long letter TO The Temps

argues that suicide Is justifiable, urges
those dissatisfied with life to follow
his example and In conclusion says,

has also elected to commit suicide He
refers without mentioning any name,

I. ALBANY. Nov ss-FormaI appliea-
-tion has been made to Governor Black
for the pardon OF Amer Ben Ali. bet
ter known as Frenchy. who was con-
yicted In New York city in 1891 OF
manslaughter. first degree, for the KILL
ing Of an old and dissolute woman
known as Old Shakespeare. The peti-
tion praying for executive clemency Is
signed by many men Of national and
international reputation. Among them
are Edward Bruwaert, the French con-
sui general; A. E. Olarouski. the Rus
sian consul general: J. b. Eustis, ex-em-
bassador to France; A. Forget OF the
Transatlantic Steamship company, Al
fred Colin Of the United States navy.
Frederic r. COudert. James p. Mar
tin. Joseph Bartels. William c. Borry.
Frederick Gibbs and Louis Coudert
Although the crime for which Frenchy
was convicted is well known. It can be
briefly told as follows:
one April morning in 1891 Old Shake
speare was found mutilated on her bed
In a cheap lodging house in New York
city. Frenchy. who was a sort Of imbe-
cile and could neither speak English or
good French. occupied a room across
the hall from that Of Old Shakespeare.
He was arrested and upon circumstan-
tlal evidence was railroaded through a
trial and was convicted and sentenced
to Imprisonment for life.
Although not insane he has spent
these six years Of imprisonment in the
Matteawan State Hospital for Criminal
Insane. While there he has learned the
English language, and It is upon his
frequent and fervent protestations OF
innocence that so many prominent peo-
pie have become sufficiently Interested
In his case to plead for clemency at the
hands OF the governor The application
for his pardon is based particularly on
the ground that he did not have a fair
trial and that had he been able TO make
himself understood while he was being
tried he could have cleared himself.
