A STRANGE STORY,
Dreyfus the Victim Of Those Who
Were the Actual Traitors.

LONDON, Sept. 1S.-David Christie
Murray published in The Morning
to-day long story regarding the Drey-
fus affair. The author vouches for the
truth Of the story, but declares that he
cannot disclose the source from which
he obtained his information.
The article states in effect that Drey-
fus was engaged as a spy in the en-
ploy of a secret department of the
French army against those suspected
of trafficking with Germany and 9TH
er Powers. His zeal, so the story goes
led him to become the victim of re-
venge on the part of Colonel Henry
Comte Esterhazy and ColoISel Patty Du
Clam, who themselves were concerned
in reasonable practices.

FLOOD TIDE
FOR PATTON
AND GAGE

The tide of popular appreciation which
is surely carrying Henry T. Gage to the
Governorship of California swept through
the north end of the city last evening,
beginning with q rousing mass-meeting
in Apollo Hall, on Pacific street, near
Stockton. Like all the Republican meet
ings of the campaign, the hall was crowd
ed to its full capacity with enthusiastic
citizens. Arrangements for the gathering
had been made by the Austrian-Slayonian
Republican Club. M. Sabadin, president
of the organization, officiated as chair
man.
The chief attraction Of the evening was,
Of course, Henry t. Gage and Charles L.
Patton, but interest in the entire NUM-
cipal ticket was shown by the fact that
all the voters present remained after the
leaders had left to listen to the remarks
of other speakers and candidates. and the
applause for men who are running on the
same ticket was equally as enthusiastic
and sincere as that given the respective
heads of the State and city tickets.
In addition to the speakers already men

by benefting the entire country. In the
course of the address the rights and privi-

Mr.. Gage spoke in brief on the present
political crisis and It's probable outcome
in a general and overwhelming victory
for the Republican party. He spoke at

oPEN-AIR
ASSEMBLY IN

The open air meeting held under the
auspices of the Republican County Com
mittee at Twentieth and Illinois streets
last night was a success from every point
of view. Enthusiasm was manifested by
the vast assemblage from the time the
band gave the first toot until the last
speaker stepped from the platform. and
hundreds of stalwart workingmen, with
cheers for the Republican leaders, start
ed homeward.
The scene was most picturesque and in
spring, and both speakers and audience
caught the spirit of the affair in a man
ner which augurs we'll for the ticket on
election day. II last nights meeting is
any criterion, the Republicans will carry

A speakers stand was erected on IlIi-

on adjacent corners cast a fitful light on
the faces OF the throng. The air was
mild and balmy, and the little banks of
fog failed to dampen the ardor of the
auditors, who stayed almost to a man

WELCOME

Henry T. Gage tested the temper of the
people of the Potrero last night and the
response was unanimous in its indorse-
ment of Mr.. Gage, the party and the plat
form on which the standard bearer of the
Republicans stands The meeting was held
in Maennerbund Hall, Potrero avenue and
Twenty-fourth street. Fully 700 people
were present. and the welcome that
they accorded to Mr.. Gage, after waiting
for over two hours for him to arrive, as
well as the manner in which they
received what he had to say, left no doubt
in any ones mind as to which of the gu
bernatorial candidates will carry that par
>ticular district.
IT. c. Maher was introduced by State
Central Committeeman Frank Mitchell as
the chairman of the meeting. Mr.. Maher
first introduced julius Kahn, candidate
for Congress, who was warmly received.
Mr.. Kahn was loudly cheered before he
began his remarks. He started by citing
the fact that when the President called
for volunteers the men of California were
among the first to offer their lives for
their country, thus proving to the world
their patriotism and also their indorse-
nent of the administration. He asked the
question II the men of the State proposed
to go back on the President and the ad-
ministration now by sending to Congress

Kinley was inaugurated." he said. AT
that time Coxey armies were tramping
from State to State and from city to city
begging for work. With Mckinley came
a protective tariff. and Coxey armies are
things of the past. Send good Republ-
cans to Washington who will aid instead
of hamper him and you will have still
better times You all remember how,
when bond issue was found necessary
a short time ago, the bonds were sold to
foreign syndicates. In MeKinley's time
out and asked the good American citizens
to loan the money. They did it, and will
do 1t again If necessary. We have no
need for the foreign syndicate, and the
Republican party is opposed to it."
Charles L. Patton made a brief address,
as his time was limited. He introduced
himself by saying that he believed a can
didate should tell the people just what he
intended doing If elected and then decide
whether they liked him or not He said:
az am in favor of. the new charter, as
think it far ahead of the old consolidation
act under which we are working am IN

lie utilities. The city can and should

as he closed Henry T. Gage entered the
hall and was Immediately recognized.
Some one shouted his name and tumult
resulted Upon being presented he spoke
for several moments IN a felicitous vein,
saying:
''It is not surprising that 1. as one OF
the representatives of the Republican

ception at your hands, for this reason:

Three cheers for Cage" and the cheer
ing broke out anew, and another five min
utes was spent by the crowd in welcoming
the next Governor of the State.
After thanking the crowd for It's kind
reception, Mr.. Gage stated that the en-
thusiasm with which he had been re-
ceived showed him that the people of the
Potrero were awake to the issues Of the
campaign and that they were not to be
deceived by the fallacies of Mcguire or
his party.
Mr. Gage boldly made the prediction
that he would be the next Governor, and
he stated that he made to the people the
promise that he would administer the af-
fairs of the State in a fair and impartial
manner, and that he would see that rich
and poor alike received common justice In
all matters that were within his juris-
diction. AT the conclusion of his speech
Mr.. Gage was given splendid ovation,
and as he left the hall he was cheered to
the echo.
