PARIS, Oct 27.-The Court of Cas-
sation, which is to decide upon the re-
opening of the case of Alfred Dreyfus,
the prisoner of Devils Island, Who Is
alleged to have been falsely convicted
of selling important military plans TO
agents of a foreign Power, opened at
noon to-day. The hall was filled with
people but there was no demonstra-
tion around the Palace of Justice, the
gates of which were closed as matter
of precaution, and only ticket-holders
were admitted. Guards were stationed
in all the corridors.
Maitre la. Borce, who was counsel for
M. Zola during the latter's famous trial,
was seated among the lawyers Nine.
Dreyfus, wife Of the prisoner, was pro-
vided with a seat in a corner. She
was represented by Maitre Mournaud.
The Dreyfus appeal case was called
Immediately after the opening Of the
court.
Reporter Bard opened the proceed
ings by referring to the scandals
aroused by the case, even before the
appeal for a. revision Of the trial was
demanded. He then reviewed the his
tory of the case from the arrest of
Dreyfus, and said his condemnation
was for one of the crimes which in
spire universal horror, and struck one
of those in whom the country put much
confidence.
Continuing, M. Bard spoke of the eff
forts made to obtain a revision of the
case, referred to the denunciation of
Major Esterhazy, and reviewed Nine.
Dreyfus' appeal for revision of the
En M rd
appeal was based on the assumption
that the bordereau was written by
Major Esterhazy. He then pointed out
that there were suspicious facts which
Justify the request for the revision.
Mime. Dreyfus contended that her hus-
band did not write the bordereau, which
some of the experts reported he did
write. The court, therefore, would
have to examine these facts and decide
whether a revision was justified
NJ. Bard added that the appeal for a
revision was decided upon in conse
quence of the late Lieutenant Colonel
Henry's confession that he had forged
a document in the case. NJ. Bard said
that this forgery was committed In
1896, and could not alone be regarded
as ground for a revision, or for an an
nulment of the judgment rendered in
1894. Notwithstanding the fact, NJ.
Bard said, that Lieutenant Colonel
Henry had committed forgery, his evil
dence was the most crushing against
Dreyfus, but, he continued, the evil
dence of a forger is open to suspicion.
There was, therefore, the presumption
Of conscience, based upon fresh facts,
that led to the appeal for revision of

CHICAGO, Oct. GA special to the

says:

this wholesale importation of foreign
ers into Illinois, and if I hear that a.
mob is to be brought into this State,

So declared Governor Tanner in a.
speech delivered before 1000 auditors
gathered at the Knights of Pythias Hall
In this city. It was the concluding
statement In an address largely devoted
to defense Of his course in the recent
strike at Virden. The Governor re-
viewed at great length the causes lead
ing up to the rioting. He held the op-
orators to be at fault in their dealings
with the strikers, and then, reverting
70 his acts when the crisis came. said:

Then followed his uncompromising
declaration that any train entering the

CHICAGO, Oct. PA special to the

During the winter the Administration

against American pork. Professor Wiley
of the Agricultural Department is now
conducting an investigation for the
benefit of the President, and has gone
to New York for the purpose Of secur-
ing samples of German wines and
other products which win undergo a
close scrutiny to find ground for ex-
Guiding them from this country.

from that market.
Recent consular reports show that
charges of trichinae existing in Ameri-
can pork are unfounded, and upon a
scrutinizing investigation it was found
to exist in meats which came from
other countries and were marked as
coming from America
The President already has power to
act on his own responsibility and the
data are now being collected on which
to base grounds for excluding German
products which are found to be impure
and adulterated.
The data which Professor Wiley se-
cures will probably be submitted to
Congress with the Presidents message,
and he will undoubtedly make some
reference to it and suggest to Congress
that it take some action in the matter,
which he believes will be more effective
In bringing Germany to it's senses when

 Widows throughout life have a greater chance of remarrying than girls have of marrying. The elder MT. Weller has prophesied in vain. "A little widow is dangerous thing,'' probably because it is easier to glide into condolences with a lady who has known affiictIcn. Widows from 20 to 24 are especially noted for what, from the point of view of girls, is mere poaching.

 German editors are in fear and trembling just now lest the kaissrs new-fedged interest in China should lead him to take leaf out of the en- peror of China's book with regard to the punishment of lese majeste.

 In mentioning day or two ago that the colossal statue of President Kru- ger, now in course Of erection at Pretoria, was the first statue that has presented any modern ruler with a stove-pipe hat on his head, I omitted to mention the characteristic fact that Mrs. Kruger, the first lady of tha Transvaal, has insisted that the crown of the hat should be made concave, so that it might catch and hold rain
 
 birds. This concern for the welfare of the little birds is more creditable to the motherly heart of Mrs. Kruger than to her sense of artistic propriety.
 By the by, I understand that Presi- dent Kruger has now almost as keen a dread of assassination as character ized the last days of Oliver Crom- well. He carries a weapon in his pocket and his guards, who are on duty day and night, are double as strong in number as was the case a year or so ago, when he used to- sit at ease on the veranda of his house. He no longer gives access to all com CTS. The story that the murderer of MT. Joel wanted money as the price of MT Kruger's assassination created deep impression on the Boers, who appear to hold the fatalistic belief that the president is doomed to come to a violent end.
