Daniel was responsible for much pun
ishment meted out to the prisoner. in
the hope Of compelling him to declare
himself guilty.
Scandalous reports are in circulation
in connection with the death here yes
terday of Signor Ressman, formerly
Italian ambassador to France. 1t is
alleged that while he was lying at the
point of death three persons, including
an official of the Italian Embassy. en-
tered his rooms and took away a guam
tity of papers.
The anti-Semite journals connect the
story with the Dreyfus affair. It ap-
pears that about fortnight ago SignOr
Ressman had an immense quantity of
documents destroyed. declaring that if
they were left they might sharm va
rious people," 1t is also suggested that
the search may have been instigated
by Signor Crispi. the former italian
Premier, who practically dismissed
Signor Ressman from the Italian EN-
bassy in Paris in 1895, because the dip
lomatist had failed to make the French
press favorable to the Crispi Govern
ment.
