judicial Developments in Paris.

1t seems probable that the Paris court of
cessation will order a revision of the Drey-
fus case as result of yesterdays pro-
Ceedings. This, of course, means another
he airing of the charges which have been
brought against the exile, but in public IL
stead of behind the closed doors of a mill
tary court. The Judgment for revision is
Is an important step in the proc eedings, in
that IT will force the government to reveal
whatever evidence 1t may possess, and this
may cause embarrassment to the admins
tration. 1t has protested IN the past that it
should not be compelled to disclose its testi-
mony in full in view of the possible bearing
which such revelations might have upon
the relations of France with certain foreign
powers. In the event of revision, there
fore, it may be that the government will
prefer to stand mute on certain points and
titus permit the prosecution to fall to the
Il ound as unsustained through the lack of
disclosed proof.
Such a course, 1t is pointed out would
leave the government free TO claim hat
Dreyfus is really guilty, but that his guilt
cannot be established without jecpardizing
the higher interests of the republic. Should
this course be pursued it is clear that a
certain percentage of the radical lnti-Drey-

WINGED of the innocence of the captain, and
would have ground for continuing the cam
paign in his disfavor. 1t is apparent now
that this case has for some time been used
as a pretext for reactionary agitations,
such that which brought Paul Deroulede
to the bar yesterday. The Dreyfus affair
has become so confused in its ramifica tons
and involves So many tragedies and come
dies and sid bat hoe
into a great national issue. 1t is unusually
susceptible of protracted discussion in the
typical French manner
1t is published now that the Patriotic
League. Del oulede's organization, which is
a survival of the days of Boulangerism, is
planning to interfere with the return of
Dreyfus to Paris in case the court decides
upon a revision and upon his presence be-
fore it as defendant. There are WHISPERS
Of violent MEASURES to prevent his appear
ance in the French capital. All this of
course, is revolutionary in its character and
suggestions. but the air of Paris is filed
with revolutionary destinations. Yesterday
at his trial Derouleda frankly confessed
that his desire was TO bring about change
in the method of government and that he
had hoped to supplant President Loubet,
whom he openly reviled, with a military
executive. His companion In the dock as
freely acknowledged his hope that the agi-
tation on the day of President Faure's
funeral would result in a revolution

\ Warming Against Mobs.

The local case of the negro Busey. who
was charged with criminal assault on Mrs
Hardy, white woman. is a striking Illus
tration of the irestimabla value of law and
order over mob rule. Mrs Hardy, in the
early stages of her agony. identified Busy
as her assailant. The man. under the accu-
satiOn, appeared confused and unstrune
But h insisted that ne was innocent, and
as II was the duty of the officials to probe
the matter to the bottom they investigated
his statements. The result IS his release
from custody. An alibi was successfully
esta hlished.
Transfer this case to any section OF the
country where the mob rules. and what
would have occurred? Can anybody doubt
Busey would have been tortured and hanged

of innocence would have avail4d him moth

signal for the adjustment Of the moose and
the hurrying of the mob to its awful work
And yet an innocent person would have

That would have ended the matter. and the

The War of '9S,

We hurried side by side, that day
on Cuban soil to take the hill
Where Spanish colors flew so gay.
Then we Were comrades he and 1,
Though fight is what we went there for

But that was long before the war
With clasping hands we since have met
And by-gone sorrows fade from view.
We thought that we might ne er forget
The hot reproaches as they flew;
Threats of dishonor and of want;
Words which brave heart must abhor.
But roses bury deep each taunt-
These things were long before the war.

According to the citizens of RrightWood
who appeared yesterday before the District
Commissioners to protest against the meth
OBS OF the Brightwood Railroad Company
one OF the causes of the recent deteriora-
uon OF the service is the lowering of the
wages of the employees, resulting in the
resignation OF trained men and the employ
ment OF unframed men in their places. This
phase of the controversy should be closely
examined. for 1t may in fact lie al the base
of the evils of which the patrons of the line
so bitterly complain. This road has recent
ly been bought by the syndicate now own
ing all of the local lines save those of the
Capital Traction system. On two other
roads already a tendency to reduce wages
has been evinced. calling forth protests
from the people. Now 1t is alleged that the
same policy has been applied to the Bright
wood line. This road has for some years
been in a weak financial condition. For one
reason and another it was unable to do
more than barely maintain itself Never
theless no word of complaint was heard on
the score of the wages paid the men, Nor
were the patrons unduly excited by bad SER
vice. Almost Immediately after the change
in ownership the service is deteriorated, the
wages are said to be reduced and the pa-
tlcns are made hostile. Is this the local be-
ginning of the process which is threatened
in Baltimore a result of the consolidation
of the lines under a single ownership? If
so the Washington people will take up the
cudgels with energy and will WELD them
until the promised improvements are car
ried out. This present trouble may be the
result of the shifting of owners and may be
merely temporary characteristic of the
interim between the old and new manage
ments. But even this suggestion cannot ac-
count for the alleged reduction in wages
