ABSOLUTE QUIET IN PARIS.
Revisionist Press Is Bitter, but There
Is No Disorder Following the
Dreyfus Verdict.

PARIS, Sept. I0.-The day has been one
Of absolute quiet, with no public excite
ment, even IN the Rue de Chabrol. There
was rainfall this afternoon and the streets
were practically deserted.
Slight disturbances occurred yesterday
at Marseilles and Belfort after the verdict
of the Dreyfus court-martial was publish
ed. The demonstrators stoned the residence
of jacques Dreyfus. brother of the con-
demned, at Belfort, breaking the windows
and otherwise damaging the structure.
Many persons were arrested in both places.
The premier. NJ. Waldeck-Rousseau, was
visited this morning by most of his col
leagues. The date of the next cabinet coun-
Gil has not yet been fixed. President
Loubet will probably not return to Ram
bouillet for several days.
Tomorrow NJ Demange will visit NJ.
Waldeck-Rousseau and submit a number OF
legal questions arising out of the trial.
A semi-official note has been issued de-
nying the assertion of the morning papers
that the minister of foreign affairs, NJ. Del
casse, transmitted to Colonel Jouaust, the
president of the court-martial, through NJ
Paleologue, Friday, a statement by the
Reichsanzeiger, repeating the disavowaIs Of
Count Won Munster and Count Won Buelow
of German relations with Dreyfus The
rote also denies that NJ Delcasse asked
Germany to issue the statement.
The revisionist press comments upon the
Dreyfus verdict with deepest indignation
declaring that the battle between the civil
and military courts will continue until the
victory rests with the court of cessation

the regulations for degradation. This IS
Colonel Jouaust's view.
Those who think Dreyfus will be re
leased in October because the five years
on DEVILS island will wipe out the present
sentence. saw in the fact that he was SEN
fenced for exactly ten years a conilrma-
lion of their view, but they are mistaken.
He was sentenced to ten years not because
that happens TO be double his term on
Devils island, but because, according to
the military code, the recording OF two
votes in favor fixes the term OF detention
at ten years. Had the verdict been unan-
tmous, he must have been sentenced to
twenty years.
Those protesting TO have ascertained
since the verdict the opinion of the judges
declare that the vote of five to two was
not given by mutual agreement, but be-
cause. the two judges voted in his FAVOR
from a conviction of his innocence.
The present procedure is the application
for revision, signed by Dreyfus to-day 1t

court-martial must send complete dos

Inents submitted. \ reporter will be ap-

proceedings The result will be submitted

An interesting fact developed to-day Is
that the police had taken every precauuon
10 get Dreyfus safely out of Rennes in the
event of acquittal, in which case, 1t was
unanimously agreed, there would have
been serious disorder and probably an at
tempt upon his life. The police had ar
ranged to conduct him back to the mill
tary prison after the verdict, with the
same precautions as during the trial. He
was to have been given civilian attire and
false beard, and then TO have left the
prison by the small Goor of the recruiting
Office leading to the Avenue de la Care
No one would have expected him to. leave
through that building, which is attached tc
the military prison, and, thanks to the dis
Euise, the police hoped he would reach
the station safely, where a special train
was waiting to rush him off before the
crowd could have heard Of his leaving the
prison.

officers were lying in wait for him on Har-
rison avenue when he came along on a
bicycle. The officers called upon Dumont
to stop, but he pedaled on, at the same
time drawing a revolver and shooting over
his shoulder at his pursuers.
Patrolman CASTOR was the first to go
down, with a bullet in his head and an
other in the arm. Dumont lost his bal

sought refuge behind telegraph pole and
continued the fusillade with Detective
Kleeman. Dumont received three wounds
