LONDON, September H.-The Daily
Chronicle this morning publishes a letter
from Mr. Conybeare, in which the writer
declares that Major Esterhazy himself sold
the documents mentioned in the bordereau
to Schwarzkopfen, together with 160 other
documents, and that Colonel Schwarzkop-
fen paid Esterhazy ESQ monthly for two
years for espionage. He denies that Colonel
Sandherr ordered EsterhaZy to write the
bordereau. and appeals to the latter to tell
the whole truth instead OF silly falsehoods,
and to frankly confess that he never felt
himself to be a French officer" which
would explain If not Justify his conduct.

RETIRED TO AVERT WAR.
Reason Why Casimer-Perfer Resign
ed Presidency of France.

LONDON, September 27-The Daily
News this morning commences the publi-
cation of a series of articles which it al
leges explain the Dreyfus affair. Today's
article concerns the resignation by NJ. Cas-
imir-Perier of the French presidency,
which it describes as a strange, sad story.
The article says:
"In December, 1894, detailed report of
the Dreyfus affair, which Count Won Nun
ster sent by the usual courier to the kaiser,
was intercepted and photographed at the
French frontier. Yet it reached the en-
peror without delay a few days later. This
fact became known to the information bu-
reau at Berlin, and Germany ordered Count
Won Munster to demand his passports, for
the offense was regarded as robbery and an
offenSe to the emperor, on the principle OF
extraterritoriality. When Count Won Mum
ster made this demand at the palace of the
Elysee, President Casimir-Perier was over
whelmed with the suddeness of the revela-
ton, and was beside himself. In an extra
ordinary scene he gave his word of honor
repudiating all connection with or knowl-
edge of the affair, and solemnly promised
to prevent repetition Of 1t.
Count Won Munster was satisfied and
sent a second report of this interview.
This document was similarly intercepted
and photographed, the negative arriving at
the French foreign office within forty-eight
hours.
Some days later on January u, 1895,
Count Won Munster called at the palace of
the Elysee and suddenly announced that
Germany would mobilize her troops forth
with unless satisfaction was given for this
new insult"
A dramatic scene followed. Count Won
Munster collapsed into a fauteuil, q prey
to violent feelings, reproaching NJ. Casimir
Perier with having dishonored him in the
eyes of the empire.
NJ. Casimir-Perier was crushed and could
not reply at first, but presently said: Tell
your emperor / myself will give him satis
faction. l do not want to sacrifice the
country l will leave the presidency. /
pray his majesty to be satisfied"
Two days later NJ. Casimir-Perier re-
signed.

View Of a Diplomat Regarding Peace
Commissions Instructions.
MAY START POSSIBILITIES AGAIN
Diplomatic Air of Paris Distinctly
Unfriendly to America.
FIRST SSION TODAY

PARIS, September 27.-While the recep-
ton accorded the United States peace COM
mission here is all that could be desired,
and while the French foreign office has
taken great pains to treat the American
and Spanish commissioners in precisely the
same manner, it must be admitted that the
general atmosphere of Paris, especially the
diplomatic atmosphere, does not incline to-
ward America
1t is the general impression here that the
American commissioners have instructions
to provide for the retention of Manila and
the Island of Luzon, land for a commits
sion to pretend to negotiate is a farce"
said prominent diplomat. He continued:
America will put herself, automatically,
in the wrong when she exceeds the pro-
visions of the protocol, which both nations
signed l know the Spaniards have come
prepared to make concessions; but, it the
Americans instructions are of an uncom-
promising nature, which is generally be-
lieved here to be the case, you can rest
sured that the work of the commission will
be futile. The SpaniarGs will retire and
America will at least have to threaten a
resumption of hostilities before she will
gain her point"
Papers Make No Comment.
The French newspapers, beyond announc-
ing the arrival of the commissions, make
no comment upon the matter
The commission, for the first time since
its appointment, met a body today, for
two hours, in the drawing room of the
Continental Hotel
Mr.. Ferdinand W. Peck. the United
States comm niSsioner to the Paris eXposi-
ton of 1900, is about to vacate his quarters
in the same hotel. They were formerly oc-
Cupied by the ex-Empress Eugene, ard
have been used by Mr.. Peck offices until
grounds. We're in readiness.
The suite of rooms which the former en-
press at one time used will probably be ac-
quired by the American peace commission
erS. They will be used for executive seS-
sions and official headquarters.
As the joint commission is not deiibera
tive body, it will, possibly. not orgarize
with a presiding member from either COM
n ion. This is deemed in some quarters
to be the wiser plan, as tending to promote
closer wo"ki: g relations between the two
commissions and facilitating an ultimate
adjustment. This, however, is not positive.
All Comfortably Chartered.
Judge Day and Mr.. WhiteIaw Reid are
quartered at q hotel overlooking the Tui-
cries Garders, and the other commission
ers equally comfortable.
The Americans enjoyed sunny weather
during their first day in Paris. and they are
all in good health and spirits.
The French government is arranging to
provide at the salon where the joint ses-
siOns of the commissions will be held an
elaborate buffet daily for the use of all the
commissioners.

And so the news spreads and spreads.
Housekeepers all around are talking of
the fine quality of goods bought at our
Grocery Department. AS the news
spreads, so our groceries spread all
over the city, from Waikiki to Palama ;
from the wharf to way up the valley.
There is only one conclusion to be
drawn, and that is: that the quality of
goods must be right-not only that,
but the prices are right, the attention
is right, and the goods are in the right
condition.
Everyone knows of the American
Biscuit Company and the class of goods
they make. The following are a few
