The friends of former Captain Dreyfus
are anxious to resume the efforts looking
to his rehabilitation. as they desire
that he shall be reinstated in the army
even if he resigns Immediately afterward.
He is greatly improved in health, and con-
templates taking up civil engineering for
the present as a diversion. As a matter
of fact, Capt. Dreyfus vindication is prac-
tically as complete as if he were already
reinstated, and there is no telling what
unpleasantness he might meet in reopening
the contest with the French army

punishment Of former Captain Garter. with

DeArmond Of Missouri appears to be the
leading spirit in his contemplated move
Now that Capt. Carter has been convicted
and his sentence put into execution, and
in view of the fact that proceedings are
soon 10 be taken in the civil courts against
The contractors. It is difficult to see what
could be gained by a congressional fnves-
isation. Under the circumstances, il
would seem that Congress should await
the determination of the cases Of the con
tractors by the courts before suggesting
an investigation, which would smack Of
disoourtesy 10 the judiciary. 1t may be
that this course VIII be pursued should
Mr. DeArmond offer his proposed resolu~

GREAT PLUGGING MATCH
The Colorado Kid aud Walter Nee-
 Icy Create Fun.

That was delightfully entertaining go' as.you.please hugging match that closed the show at the Bowery tn .ater last night between the Colorado Kid, eolored, and Walter Medley. That is to say, lt would have been entertaining had the crowd gone there to see a hugging and ajoIting match, but as they went to see prize fight the results were not quite satisfactory, and as such it was failure, at least that Is what the mob that was present said. They crowded the theater intent on seeing regular hurricane slugging match in which gore was to flow like beer and one of the contestants was to be knocked out, or knocked senseleSS, the same thing, within ten Marquis of Queensburv rule rounds, The two men certainly made pretty tair Stagger at fighting, but failed to connect as often as they tried, the result being a chunng and flaming of the air all around each others head that looked alarm ing and would have been dangerous to the principals had they ev:r hit each other. They tried it over and over and seemed in real earnest about it, but the big gloves ap- peared Co be in the way and after every ef- fort they would again hug and kiss and evi' dently make it up. That pleased the crowd and such shouts and wells, and cat calls were never heard out of pandemonium. They offered all kinds of advice to the two herts and dangerous looking gladiators. One man suggested getting a meat aN, an' other a Sledge hammer, another yelled ut "bite him. in fact the advice given was too numerous for the men to follow and ap' peared to make them faint with thinking, and they looked foolish as the result of it. They went through ten three-minute strug- gles: some one said eleven. lt was all the same, they could have stood any number of them, and their windmill capacity ap- pelred unlimited.
 lt ended finally, as do all good things, and Merritt Barnes, the referee. who. bv' the-way, received more blows and bloody nose in parting the men than the men themselves, Sidly announced his decision and claimed the fight" draw. A deris- i've howl was given in answer by the crowd, and the two men were ordered put to bed. lt was a great event and John L. was not in it and never created as much fun in one night.
