THE DREYFUs CASE.


Crave Results of Investigation Are
Feared In France
Paris, Sept. 2.-The report put in cir
culation by a news agency that re-
Vision Of the Dreyfus case had been de-
cided upon appears to be premature. 1t
is now pointed out that n revision must
be sanctioned by a Cabinet council un-
der the presidency of NJ. Faure.
The movement in favor Of revision
OF the Dreyfus case is growing strong
er in the papers. which until now have
been hostile to the prisoner Of Devils
island.
General Pelleiux has rendered his res
ignation, hut it was withdrawn on the
inslstence of General Zurlinden. 1t
was announced this afternoon by the
patria that several officers Of the gen.
eral staff have decided to resign short
ly and divulge all they know of the en-
tire Dreyfus affair. One officer de-
cares that war will inevitably follow US
a result Of the revelation which will be
made regarding the Vaccinations OF
another government.
The government Is doing Its best to
stem the rising tide of agitation by q
studied quiescence, which scandalizes
the Journal Des Debats and other pa
pers, bur 1t may succeed in getting over
the crisis. NJ. Faure ignores the re-
prOaches Of the press and remains at
Havre.

TOO EAGER FOR BONDS.
Many of the Bids Submitted We're ficti-
tlOus

Many OF the Bids Submitted were ficti-
tlOus.
Washington, Sept. IA wide investi-
CATION of specious bids under the last
call for subscriptions to government
bonds has been completed by Solicitor
O'Connell of the Treasury Department
and to-day he submitted to Secretary
Gage the mass of testimony In the
transactions.
The reports indicate that millions or
dollars In bonds were acquired by ir-
regular means and that a number of
New York bidders are involved in the
cases. Many OF the bids received from
New York are shown to have been
signed by individuals who had no d.
rect interest in them and subscribed
their names simply at the request of.
or In consideration of compensation by
other parties. or the bids bore sigma
lures that were forgeries.
Secretary Gage said tonight that the
investigation showed that large
amount of the bids offered were not
bona fide. but that In none of the cases
involved in the investigation had the
bonds been issued to the bidders. He
said he had no doubt, however. that In
some Instances ns yet undiscovered,
the bonds bid for I'm similar way un-
knowingly to the department had been
issued.

UTAH DEMOCRATIC CLUB MEETS
WILL CELEBRATE WASHING
TOMS BIRTHDAY.
Governor Altgeld May Come For the
occasion-New Members Admitted
Looking For Headquarters.

The Utah Democratic club met last
evening at the offices of George D. Al
der in the Mccormick building. There
was a large attendance and about
twenty-five new members were admit
ted including Judge Powers, Hon. A. w.
McCune, Congressman elect B. H. Rob
erts, Congressman King, Judge Bas-
kin, Judge Hiles, Judge Norrell, B. B.
Quinn, Joseph M. Cohen, c. S. Wilkes,
H. J. Dininny, E. G. Holding, Judge
Burton, Sam A. King, gilbert N. Olson,
II. J. Hayward, Charles Gulbransen
and others.
a committee composed of Judge Pow
ers, j. r. Letcher, j. H. Moyle and
Alex McMaster was appointed to revise
the bylaws of the club.
The question of celebrating Jackson
Day was again discussed, but a mes
sage received from Ex-Governor Alt
geld of Illinois stating that a prior en-
gagement to speak in Omaha on that
day would prevent his accepting the
invitation of the club to come to Salt
Lake, put a damper on the proposed
celebration to be given by the club
here, and after some talk it was de-
cided that the club celebrate Washing
tons birthday instead, and that an in
vitation be sent Governor Altgeld to
favor the club with his presence and
an address.
The committee appointed at the pre-
vious meeting to seek out suitable
rooms as a permanent home for the
club reported that good quarters might
be obtained in the Progress building,
and the hall over R. K. Thomas store
opposite the z. c. NJ. I. was also men
toned. Other quarters were spoken of,
but no decision was arrived at and the
matter went over until the next meet
ing of the club and in the meantime
the committee will continue its efforts
to find the most suitable quarters pos
sible.
Lou Johnson was chosen as financial
secretary of the club.
The club is gaining rapidly and prom
ises TO soon become a permanent insti-
tuition and a factor in the politics of the
state.
The next meeting will be on Saturday
evening at 7:S0 at the same place.

W. R. Malone the Choice For Dr..
MillSpaugh's Position.
SELECTION IS ABOUT MADE
FORMER PRINCIPAL OF THE
HIGH SCHOOL CHOSEN.
Prof. Malone Is Willing to Come
Back and Majority of the Board
Want Him-Prof. Alvey May Fill
the Place Tenporarily-Prof. Paul
On the Recent Fight.

Professor William r. Malone, the for
mer principal of the High school, will
in all probability be the next superin-
tendent OF schools of Salt Lake City.
1t is known that a majority of the
members of the present board Of edu-
cation favor Mr. Malone for the SUI
perintendency. 1t is also known that
Mr.. Malone will accept the post, If Of
fered him. From a knowledge Of these
two facts the conclusion is inevitable
that Dr.. Millspaugh's successor will be
Professor Malone
Professor Malone was principal Of the
High school from its inception until
midsummer of 1897, when he resigned IN
order to satisfy his desire to engage IN
business pursuits. Since that time he
has been in the insurance business in
Toledo, o. He has not found in bust
ness the pleasure that educational
work gave him and he is now more
than willing to return to his first pro-
fession. 1t is said he has been written
with regard to the Salt Lake superln-
tendency and that his reply indicated
a willingness to undertake the duties
of the position, although pecuniarily
not SO profitable as his present occupa-
ton.
1t was stated yesterday that Profess
sOr Malone was the first choice of five
members Of the board and that q semi
official communication had already been
addressed to him on the subject of the
superinteadency. Professor Malone's
reply to the letter will guide the ma
jority in any action to be taken.
While Professor Malone is the IN
questioned selection for the place, il
IS regarded as more than possible that
he may not be able, if elected, to ar
range his affairs with such dispatch as
TO enable him to take charge of the cit!
school system upon the departure OF
superintendent Millspaugh. In thai
event Professor o. II. Alvey, principa
of The Washington school, viii very
probably be selected to perform tenn
porarily the duties of superintendent.
Applications for DR.. Millspaugh':
place are coming in quite rapidly, the
announcement of at least ten tele
graphic candidates. having alread!
reached members of the board. TIL,
application Of George W. Winans, su
perintendent of the Hutchinson (Kan.
schools, was filed with Clerk Moretor
yesterday.
