Their Excellence Demonstrated to
Satisfaction Of French Officials.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21.-The loco
motives built and shipped some months
ago by the Baldwin Works for the
State railways of France, the first
American engines ever run in that
country, have in the short time they
have been in service demonstrated

ton of the French officials. AS con-
sequence, the Baldwin Works have just
been favored with another order from
the State railways for ten passenger
locomotives of the Atlantic type, with
eighty four-inch driving wheels. The
locomotives are to be completed by

Dreyru. WIN BE Retired and AenuItt,


Events of the week in the Dreyfus case
before the court of cessation in Paris leave
no doubt that the verdict, which will be
reached today or tomorrow, will decree
the return of Dreyfus to France for a new
trial, and that the end will be his acquittal,
Much of the evidence produced before
the court had already been made public in
the columns of Figaro, thus preparing the
populace for the startling disclosures of
fraud, perjury, or forgery by high Off
cials which secured the conviction and
Punishment of an innocent man.
An acquittal will be of necessity follow
ed by his restoration to the army, for
nothing short of complete reparation will
be possible. With the restoration will
end one of the greatest celebrated cases"
in modern history. In the course of the
controversy 1t pccasoned, cabinets have
fallen, men once prominent have been
driven out of public life, regulations have
been ruined, and the very government it.
self has seemed at times to be tottering on.
the verge Of collapse. At least one suicide
is traceable TO the intrigues by which "the
general staff" rought to shield itself from
the consequences of its blunder
A despatch from Paris on Wednesday
night shows how complete ha7 been the
revulsion in public feeling in Paris: "The
dignifed calm, almost approaching to rev.
erence, with which the Partisan public ac-
cepts the convincing conclusions of NJ.
Beaupre's report and tacitly admits in do
ing so that today's events at the court of
cessation mean the recall to France and the
retrial of Dreyfus, marks the complete re-
vulsion Of popular sentiment in this coun-
try since the days of the lola trial. Crowds
on the boulevards tonight seem as if they
were awakened from some hypnotic trance,
and ask themselves how they could have
been victimizei by such an apparently stu
pendous error. 1t is difficult to recall an
historical precedent for such complete
transformation of public opinion of a ma
ton as that accomplished in France to-
day.

wEsTMINsT ER WEST.


Memorial day itself passed quietly with
us as it always does. There are at least
nine We ans of the war living with us
bat never but once has there been any OBJ
servance here by public exercises. One
reason, doubtless, is that our men belong
to two different posts, located at distance.
If all were in one we should be more
likely to be noticed. 1t is to be pre-
sumed that some localities, with no more
representatives of the Grand Army, are in
cluded nearly or quite every year. Neither
post has ever come here tor the Sunday
service, but our men are called away con-
stantly.
The only stir in our village Memorial
day was caused by the departure of the
children for the east parish, where they
spent the day. and the passage of the Sax
tons River band on their way to and from
Putney in Rand's four horse coach, The
profound quiet OF the place was so broken
in upon that some people were almost
frightened, and horse grazing in yard
so much so that he ran at full speed up the
road west of the church and never stopped
until he passed j. NJ. Powers's, Butter
fields and Deacon Carpenters, finally en-
tering an open pair of bars in the deacon's
pasture, where he was found, after a
search the next forenoon, clear over in the
limits of Athens. Such is the power of
unwonted music,
