WOmaE's Part in the Dreyfus Case.
LONDON, Jan. 19-With every show of
authority, the Pail Mall Gazette prints
prominently this afternoon article pur-
porting to give the inwardness of the Drey
fuS case, and explains that the document,
in addition to the borderau on which the
government found the prisoner guilty, was
obtained in the following manner from the
Germany military attache, Won Funcke:
Mine or ten months before the arrest of
Dreyfus Won Funcke was suddenly removed
from his post. The explanation of his re-
moval throws a curious light the Drey-
fuS case and explains in some measure the
attitude of the government. When his pre-
decessor, Baron Won Huene, left Paris he
handed Won Funcke a list of the persons
in France who were in relation with the
German intelligence department. enjoining
him never to let it out of his own hands.
Won Funcke carried the document in
leather bag around his neck. Shortly after
entering on his duties accident occurred
whereby u woman Of ill-repute obtained
the document and took il 20 the Foreign
Office. where It was hastily photographed
ard returned to her. She returned it to
Won Funcke, who, in the meanwhile, had
discovered his loss, and, like an honest sol
der and attache, fastened to inform the
German government of his mishap, hence
his recall. CuriouSly enough, the woman
refused compensation though a large sum
was offered her. With the photograph of
the document the French government went
deliberately to work, and | am assured on
authority that it leaves no room to doubt
that the name of Dreyfus appeared on it,
but, it being a common name in both Ger
many and France, suspicion did not imme-
diatey fall on the officer subsequently con-
demned. Later it served as confirmatory
