preference to his brother, Prince Vic
tor
The Paris correspondent Of the Daily
News says:
1.-The Brisson cabinet was overturned
ostensibly because 1t failed to protect
the army from slander. The real facts
are that the ministers constantly, but
vainly, urged the slandered staff Of
ficers to take proceedings against their
elanderers. Gen. Mercier, Gen. Zurlin-
den and Gen. Chanoine all declined to
assist the government to vindicate the
army's honor on the ground that it
was useless to proceed against filthy
newspaper rags" Gen. Chanoine's res
ignation was timed to prevent the civil
power getting hold Of the Dreyfus dos
sier. It was calculated that, if he
went out, the government would go
before the parliament afraid Of having
army and people against it. The coup
was fixed for today (Thursday), but
M. DelOurde's statement provoked
Chanoine to precipitate the matter.
However, the decided object has been
accomplished. M. Brfsson was unable
during the supension Of the sitting of
the chamber on Tuesday to obtain NJ.

ceeded, the secret dossier would now
be before the court Of CESSATION but
M. Lockroy, as an ad interim war min
lister, cannot take the initiative. The
custodians Of the dossier can refuse
to let him see 1t. Gen. Chanoine is
one of the few generals in active serv-
ice who was closely linked with the
army of the empire. He is a son-in-
lew of Gen. Froissert the late prince
imperial's tutor. M. Brisson probably
chose him for the war portfolio be-
cause he was on excellent terms with
the Russian court and the general
French staff"

PRESSING THE POINTS

Great stress was laid by M Bard on
Col. PicQuart's letter of July 14 1898.
to the minister of justice in which he
gave seven principal arguments again It
the possibility OF guilt Of Dreyfus, in
Guiding the impossibility of Dreyfus
procuring the plans OF fortresses and
projects for the movements of troops,
undetected, whereas Maj Esterhazy
had free access thereto. This letter
also quotes interviews which Col Pic
quart had with Gems. Blot and Gonse,
and says:
With the proof in his hands have
established the innocence of Dreyfus."
TO this Gen. Gonse replied, according
to the letter to the minister of justice:
What is it to you If Dreyfus is on
Devils Is and?"
Col. Picquart-But he is innocent.
Gen. Gonse-You know Mercier for-
mer minister of war; and Saussier
CORNER military governor of Paris)
are mixed up in this affair. Do you
wish to compromise them?
The letter then continued, that, on
leaving Gen. Gonse, Col. Picquart de-
clared he was convinced of the inno-
cence Of Dreyfus, and that he pro-
posed to fight the matter out and re-
veal what he knew.
These statements upon the part Of
the reporter caused a sensation In
court.
After further reference to Col Pic
quarts message that the minister of
war and general staff had tampered
with documents and had manufactured
evidence in the Dreyfus case, and a
presentation of the contradictory state
ments Of Col. Picquart and the minister
OF war relative to the secret document
alleged to have been communicated to
the court, the hearing of the case was
adjourned until tomorrow
The court house was emptied quick

CHICAGO. Oct. 27-The steamer l..
R. Doty. with her crew Of fifteen men,
Is believed by marine men to have
been lost in the great storm In mid
lake, off Kenosha. The names of the
crew, so far as known, are:

The remainder of the crew are not
known to the owners in Cleveland.
The probable fate of the ship was
learned by the tug Prodigy, which was
sent out by the independent tug line
to search for the DOty and the schoOn-
er Olive jeanette, which the steamer
held in tow. When about twenty-five
miles off Kenosha, the Prodigy came
on a large amount of wreckage con-
sisting of pieces of deck, a pole mast,
painted brown; cabin doors, stanchions
from the after part of the steamer,
and much light wood work piece of
the steering pole which projects from
the bow was also brought in.
The Doty left South Chicago Mon
day afternoon with a cargo of corn for
Midland. Her consort, the schooner
Olive jeanette, was sighted today in
the lake off Crosse point, but the
steamer has not been heard from

PRECAUTIONS TAKEN.

Spectators Gained Admission to the
Court Room Only by Card.
PARIS, Oct. 7.-Extraordinary pre-
cautions were taken during the prog

house. No one was admitted save by

came alarmed at the threats of the
mob, and left the court house. There
were no really serious disturbances,
however.

consequences. To avoid these, it is ex-
pected the court will decide that as the
affair now presents itself there has
been no treason and that the condem-
nation pronounced upon Dreyfus by
the court martial cannot be upheld.
The Courier du Soir says that the
revelations in the report Of M. Bard,
before the court of cessation, as to
the part played by some members Of
the general staff, have produced a
strong effect in military circles, and
are likely to result in a reaction tend
ing to put an end to the antagonism
between the civil and mil ta,y authori-
ties"

SAGASTA'S TIME SHORT.
Dynasty May Be Involved In the

Dynasty May Be Involved In the
Ministry's Inevitable Fall.
MADRID, Oct. IA ministerial crisis is
inevitable. The political situation is more
critical than at any time since Senor Sagasta
formed his ministry. He can hardly resist the
pressure that daily grows stronger, and 1t is
feared that the dynasty may be involved in
the minister's inevitable fall Especially Is
such result to be apprehended when 1t Is
considered that militarism hourly grows more
meEaclng. When the army takes hand in
administration it is not likely to stop with
overturning a ministry. Sagasta is advising
Senior Emilio Castelar, to accept the commits
sion to form cabinet after the present min
listers shall have handed in their resigna-
tions.
The attitude of the American peace commits
sioners toward the Cuban debt question
awakens the fear here that they may show
the same uncompromising spirit in their
treatment of the Philippine question.
