Rabbi Adler'S Declaration at London.
Dreyfus Likely to Be Released
After Appeal is Considered.

London. Sept. 15.-English indigna-
tion against France was strengthened
yesterday on account OF the observance
by ali Jews OF the Day of Atonement.
The day was celebrated here, especi-
ally in the East End. with Dreyfus de-
monstrations. a procession with a
banner inscribed: "Dreyl D.. the martyr
All tie civilized world demands his m

The great synagogue in London pre-
sented a striking spectacle. 1t was
crowded from . o clock In the morning
until d az might aad thousands werc

mutable law. Falsehood and injustice
might prosper for a time, but certain
retiibutp1n would follow those who for
sock the path Of right and jusuce. IL
has been so wiuh Uhe colossal empires
OF antiquity and with Spain in our day.
DR.. Adler declared that Saturday was
not, as has been said, the bitterest day
account ~ the Dreyfus verdict. Ii was
a memorable pentenLal Sabbath. ever
10 be remembered wfth the keenest dis
appointment, in which ali felt the deep
est pity for the prolonged agony OF
Dreyfus and his wife. but IT. was not u
day OF unalloyed bitterness for Jews.
To France IL was "a day more disastrous
than Waterloo. more humiliathng than
Sedan. France, which first allowed To
The. Jews the rights of citizenship, had
defiled the golden vessels OF Gods tenn
pie and had branded an innocent man
as am odious traitor to the country he
loved 50 well. Even i'm France every
one hand not been hypnotized by the
unholy blend OF clericalism and mill
tarism.
Let lthe ma jesty of the law be vindi-
Gated" he concluded. 'and let them not
seek pardon. which should be re-
jected wSth scorn, for where no crime
was committed. how can a patton be
granted?"
Yet this is the very course taken by
khe law in England. though this point
was overlooked by DR.. Adler. The Drey-
fus case stlll remains in the forefront
of discussion. The opinion preponder-
ates that the prisoner will be pardOned.
ON all sides one hears the question:
How Us n possible 20 pa'
cent man? One answer To this is that
he has been convicted. Another is that
the custom Is not confined t. France.
Many persons have been convicted and
sentenced 10 penal seryitude for life in
England. and when one OF them il dis
covered TO be Innocent the conviction is
not annulled. the only reparation made
to the convict being a free pardon. IL
such can be the case in free England,
many persons say, why not i'm France?

Mr.. M'CARTHYS DEATH
May Result in Use Of Electric Power
on Washington Bridge.
Commissioner Smith viii Bring Matter 70
Attention OF Aldermen.

Medical Examiner Perkins has de-
cided to report to Coroner Lincoln the
death of Daniel Mccarthy, who was
struck by n bicyclist on Washington
bridge on Wednesday evening in order
that all the circumstances may be fully
investigated. DR.. Perkins says the
place where Mccarthy met his death
is so dark at night that objects can be
distinguished only with difficulty for a
space OF about 25 feet around the boiler
house.
II is understood that at the next
meeting of the Board OF Aldermen
recommendation viii be made by Conn
missioner of Public Works Smith that
the motive power of the draw OF Wash
ington ibriuge be changed from steam
10 electricity that the motor be located
overhead as on Red bridge and that
the bridge be lighted by incandescent
lights instead OF by gas and oil lamps.
as at present. The cost OF the changes
will probably not exceed $1,000 and the
proposed change will do a great deal
90 ensure the safety OF life and limb
ON Red bridge electricity has been
used ever since the new bridge was
completed three years ago. hTe power
there comes from n motor similar to
those used on electric cars. and the cost
OF maintenance is less than the cost OF
operating the steam plants on WASH
ington and Point street bridge. The
cost Is the minimum rate OF the Electric
Light company-$20 a month. or 81 per
horse power. which Is. Commissioner
Smith says. about the same az steam,
wear OF engines considered.
Medical Examiner Perkins performed
an autopsy yesterday afternoon upon
the body OF Dan.cl Mccarthy. and he
found that death had resulted from "A
combination OF ll-health and the shock
of the accident TO an enfeebled system.
The kidneys were affected and the
heart action was very weak. There
were slight evidences OF a hemorrhag
OF the brain. but this DIR. Perkins con-
cluded, would not have caused death
had Mccarthy been a healthy man. IL
was the shock OF the blow that knocked
him down that caused the weak h. art

death was partly due TO the accident
and partly To disease. Drs. kimball
