interest as to the result OF NJ. Labori's appeal
to Emperor William and King Humbert to aid
Dreyfus, but no positive news has yet been
received as to the course they will follow.

effect that the attitude OF the French Generals
toward foreign attaches. especially Gen.
Roget's attack on Col. Schneider. who is the
representative OF q power allied with Ger

granting OF the request that Germany come to
the assistance OF French justice. The decision,
however. must come from Emperor william.

Ing some officer Of known ability as military

Nothing has developed. however. to show that

say in that respect, nearly all OF them admit
that he is one vi the very best administrative

assume that Secretary Root has been i'm
pressed with the belief that Gen. Otis should
be superseded by another officer OF high
rank. On the contrary. 1t Is asserted
on good authority friendly to Gen. Otis that

ministration have been more impressed than
ever before with the course OF Gen. Otis in the
