 Movement in Favor of n Revision in
 Dreyfus Case Growing by Leaps and
 Bounds Count Esterhazy's Amazing
 Goodness.
 Paris, Sept. 1.-The Dreyfus case to- night presents no new feature; but there Is a plentiful supply of rumors. The first of these is that Dreyfus is dead, no letter having been received from him for some weeks. Another re- port is that General De Boisdeffre, who has just resigned the post of chief of the general staff, has committed sui eide. Both these rumors are undoubt- edly without foundation. Colonel Du- pay Du Clam is on a vacation trip in Switzerland, and there is no confirma- tion of the statement of La Patrie that he had been arrested for complicity in the Henry forgery. General Gonse, as- sistant chief of the general staff, who rendered his resignation yesterday, has been persuaded to withdraw it, as his retirement under the age limit will oc- cur next month.
 The movement in favor of a revision in the Dreyfus case is growing by leaps and bounds Considering recent events, Major Count Walsh Esterhazy retains an amazingly cool attitude. In the course of an interview yesterday, he expressed astonishment that Lieu tenant Colonel Henry was allowed to have razor. Henry's death, he said, was regrettable, because, doubtless, he had other revelations to make" Count Esterhazy intends to appeal against his enforced retirement from Active service in the army

Dr. Willard, minister of Pana made plea to the miners to release the Overholts' and was knocked in the head with a revolver for the pains. The two officials were dragged from their buggy in front of the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern depot.

 Galena, H., Sept. 1-The miners were overtaken by the state officials of the Miners union and halted D. J. and Lewis Overholt gave the committee an OIucI tO seHu LOT d COInIlllLLee the negro miners. Sheriff Coburn refused and replied demanding the release of the Overholts. John Mitchell, national vice president of the union, sent back a note saying the Overholts were not in his keeping.
 Cleveland, Sept. 1.-General Manager Schules of the American Steel and Wire company issued an ultimatum to the strikers at the American mill to-day, in which he says: we are going to run this mill and we are going to run 1t full before long. The jobs are there if the old men want them, and if they do not they must stand aside and see others take their places. The American Steel and Wire company is paying more than it's competitors for drawing wire, and the scale will remain as 1t is. We will not compromise. We will not receive committee of the strikers; neither will we submit to arbitration" The strik- CTS show no sign of weakening. They claim to be more sanguine than ever of ultimately winning out in the strug- gle.

By T. SHELLEY surror.

Br T. SHELLEY SUTTON.
My hand has never clasped a flower
But it has felt the thorn,
And ne'er has pleasure filled my hour
But left 1t more forlorr;
The joys Of yesterday are now
The follies that scorn.
The coffin I'D to-day has hid
What yesterday was born.
And to my breast the echoes come
OF songs used to sing,
But in my heart the Tyre is dumb
And broken is the string;
Alas the faith that feds me once
Has proven cold and blind,
And hope has passed. like summer months,
And left no trail behind.
