ed with Typhoid In Cuba.
Washington, Sept. 19.-Captain Allyn
Capron, First artillery, died at his
home, near Fort Meyer Va, yesterday.
Captain Capron was one of the best
known officers in the regular army.
He had devoted himself particularly to
the military branch of the service, hav-
ing been an honor graduate of the ar
tillery school in 1873, and was regarded
as an authority on artillery tactics.
When General Skaters corps went
to Santiago Captain Capron accom-
panied 1t, and his battery did notably
fine work in the field at Santiago Dur
ing the first days fight before the city
Captain Capron's son, Captain Allyn K.
Capron, of the Rough Riders, was kill
ed The death of his son preyed on
the fathers mind, but he never swerV-
ed for an instant from his duty during
the terrible days that followed. The
seeds of disease were sown in his sys-
TEN during the Cuban campaign, and
he returned to his home at Fort Meyer,
near this city, only to be stricken down
with typhoid fever
CAPTAIN Capron was born In Florida
and entered the military academy as a
cadet in 1863 After graduation he was
made a second lieutenant of the First
artillery on June II, 1867, and was an
officer of that regiment until his death,
He was commissioned as captain on
Dec. 4, 1888.
1t is probable that Captain Capron
will be buried In Arlington National
cemetery, but no definite arrangements
for his funeral have yet been made.

it is well known that 1t was for the

London, Sept. 19-David Christie
Murray publishes in The Morning a
long story regarding the Dreyfus af-
fair The author vouches for the truth
of the story, but declares that he can
not disclose the sources from which he
obtained his information. The article
states in effect that Dreyfus was en-
gagged as a spy in the employment Of
secret department Of the French
army against those suspected of traf-
ficking with Germany and other pow
ers. His zeal here, so the story goes,
led him to become the victim Of re-
venge on the part of Colonel Henry,
