Convinced Of the Absolute Necessity OF a
Revision of Dreyfus Case.
President Faure a Determined OPP
ponent of Such a Course, and
Rumors Are Current That He
Will Resign If the Ministry
Should Decide to Grant a Re-
hearing.

NEW YORK, Sept ia dispatch

France is on the brink of the gravest
crisis since the birth of the third re-
public The situation is briefly this
Premier Brisson and all the other
members Of the Cabinet, with the ex-
ception of Zurlinden, Minister for War,
and possibly Lockroy, are convinced of
the absolute necessity Of revision Of
the Dreyfus case in the interest alike
OF justice and of the State. General
Brugere has signified his Willingness
to take the portfolio of war, and accept
revision.
AT Saturdays meeting of the Cabi.
net a decision will be taken, and it is
certain that revision will be decreed.
President Faure is a determined oppo-
nent of revision and has caused it to be
rumored that he will resign if it is
granted. No one believes that he will
resign, but everyone sees that the
threat to do so is desperate expedient
to get rid at one blow of Brisson s
Cabinet, and, it is fondly hoped, of re-
vision also.
But Faure's unconstitutional action
in directly interfering with responsible
ity in the Cabinet affords an example
of the lawlessness in high places, which
Is the first step toward revolution. He
is accused of aiming at a dictatorship,
and if he succeeds in destroying the
Brisson Cabinet, it will be the act of a
dictator
The Dreyfus agitation can now be
suppressed only by the exercise of arbi-
trary power. President Faure has made
himself the champion of the army and
It's tainted chiefs, who will do anything
10 avoid the exposure that revision
would entail, and they are ready to
place that arbitrary power in his hands.
A military coup d'etat is freely coniect-
ufed tonight as the probable outcome
OF the crisis, should President Faure's
efforts to bulldoze the Brisson Cabinet
fail.
