heat of the city was not as great today IN

FRENCH CABINET MEETS
ExPREssLY TO DEAL WITH THE

N. CAvAIGNAC'S Retirement
Leaves the Cabinet Unanimously In
Favor Of Revision-Henry Buried
Without Religious Service
Associated Press Special Wire.

Associated Press Special Wire.
PARIS, Sept. 4.-owing to the resignation
Of M. Cavaignac Of the ministry OF war
President Faure returned to Paris THIS
morning.
The cabinet will meet tomorrow express
ly to deal with a request from Madame
Dreyfus for revision Of the proceedings
of the court martial that condsmned her
husband.
As the cabinet Is now practically unanl-
mousIy in favor Of revision-partly because
the ministers are aware that there Is no
other method Of satisfying public feeling
the outcome Of the meeting Is almost a
foregone conclusion.
1t Is not thought that NJ. Cavalgnac's re-
tirement viii involve the resignation OF
other minister's
According to lie so!r, NJ. Faure. who re-
ceived NJ. Cavaignac today, strongly urged
him to withdraw his resignation. The
paper also asserts that at the council to-
morrow the president will endeavor to
prevent a decision In favor OF revision. On
the same authority 1t is announced that
General Roger, chief OF NJ. Cavaignac's
military staff. will retire at his own re-
quest.
The name OF General Sauss!er. formerly
military governor Of Paris, is mentioned in
connection with the war office portfolio.
In her retter to M. Sarrien. minister OF
justice, Nine. Dreyfus says she addresses
him again. since he alone has the right to
demand revision, on the ground of new
fact" She argues that Lieutenant
Colonel Henry's admission Of forgery de-
pr!ves his dispositions and acts Of all
weight, and concludes her appeal by call
ing upon NJ. Sarrien to "lsten TO the voice
of public opinion and put an end to the
punishment of a loyal and innocent man."

PARIS, Sept. 4-The services at the in
