riOusly Ill on Steamship.

MONTREAL. Nov. 13.-The new Governor
General of Canada, Lord Minto his family
and suite, arrived here this afternoon on
board the steamship Scotsman. The vice
regal party did not disembark. This was
due to the illness of Lord AInto's eldest
son, Viscount Melgund Great reticence Is
displayed as to the young mans illness
The aid-de-camp says that it is only slight
attack of bronchitis, but some of the pas.
sengers on the Scotsman state that Viscount
Melgund is suffering from an attack OF
typhoid fever. 1t is said that the vice
regal party will not leave for Ottowa until
Tuesday. The last order in council Loro
Aberdeen signed was one granting $4,000 to

as unthinkable the assumption that the

Alleged Syndicate scheme to Lease
the Islands for Twenty-Ffve Years.
PARIS, Nov. 1S.-The Gaulois this morn
ing says: THE acquisition of the Philip,
pines for twenty-five years by an interna-
tional syndicate, from whichever power
may eventually acquire them, is a rumor
based on facts of which the Gaulois will
tomorrow Monday give Details
Following this lead the Gaulois and other
Paris papers will tomorrow announce the
scheme somewhat on these lines: A syn
dicate representing $400.OO00 900 capital pro-
poses to take over the commercial resources
and advantages of the Philippines for a
term OF twenty-five years. paying to the
dominant power therein SIPS 600 900 for the
privilege. Under the alleged terms Of this
scheme the dominant power would admin
lister the political and military government
OF the islands at its own expense under
the apportionment named, while the syn
dicate would collect all customs and other
revenues for the term specified.
The scheme involves giving Spain
Sll5,0o00oo to satisfy any real or imaginary
claims she may make 10 the territory

PARIS. Nov. 13.-It is reported here this
evening that Dreyfus is dead. The rumor
is understood to be based on a mysterious
telegram received from Comar, capital of
Upper Alsace, signed by an unknown cor
respondent. So far as can be ascertained
there is no official confirmation of the re-
port. The father-in-law of Dreyfus discred-
its it. He says he has received excellent
accounts from the Colonial Office quite re-
Gently as to the prisoners health. Careful
inquiries made at Colmar this evening show
that nothing is known there as to the death
of Dreyfus 1t is now believed thatathe tel
egram was a hoax.
Despite these assurances there are dark
rumors afloat. In view of the curious man
ner in which the letter from Dreyfus de-
claring that he had abandoned all hope was
conveyed to Nine. Dreyfus, on Friday, many
people believe he is dead. A dispatch from
Paris on Friday said that Nine. Dreyfus
had applied that day at the Office of the
minister of the colonies for permission to
send her husband some warm clothing for
bis return home The request was refused
on the ground that the government would
do whatever was necessary.
At the same time, according to the dis
patch, the authorities read her letter from
her husband to the effect that having for
five months addressed appeals for revision
to General De Boisdefre (recently chief of
staff of the French army without getting
any reply, and being weary and exhausted
by his useless appeals he would write no
mora to his family or to anybody. He de-
scribed himself as 'ill and dying" and be-
queathed to the generosity of my country
the care Of rehabilitating my memory
1t appears that Mime. Dreyfus then asked
permission to telegraph her husband the de-
cision of the Court of Cessation. This re-
quest also was refused. Then, through a
friend, she appealed to President Faure,
but with no better result. The dispatch said
her counsel would bring the whole matter
before the Court of Cessation.
