THE DUEYFUS APPEAL
TIA BE Withdrawn to Enable the Gov
eminent to Grant an Immediate

London, Sept. Il. - NJ. De Blowitz,
the Paris correspondent Of the Times,
says: II learn that Capt Dreyfus
will shortly withdraw his appeal for
n revision of the Rennes trial, which
will leave the ground clear for the
government to take immediate steps
to pardon him. This pardon will not
annul the dismissal part of the SEN
tence. and he therefore will no longer
belong to the army. There is nothing
to hinder him from applying to the
court of cessation to quash the verdict
Of the trial whenever the new fact re-
Nuired by law is produced. When
liberated he will settle in the South
Of France as the members or his
family do not propose to expose him
to such demonstrations Of sympathy
abroad as might be used against him
by his adversaries at home.

While the death of Harlan P. Halsey

less a cause of mourning to large

bereavement to the countless boys.

breadth of this land who found solace
and joy unspeakable in his detective
stories. Mr.. Halsey might have served
as a latter-day type Of DR.. Jekyll and
Mr.. Hyde. AS Mr.. Halsey he organ
lied two trust companies, was a di-
rector in other large corporations, and
served for ten years as a member of
the Brooklyn board of education. AS
"Old Sleuth," he was the guide. philos-
opher, and friend of telegraph messen-
ger boys, elevator boys, office boys
and their ilk, who eagerly devoured the
more than 600 stories of crime and de-
tectives as they flowed in swift sue

When he was in the mood he could

so great was his popularity that his
publishers paid high prices for his
work. He left behind him S50O0oo
nearly all of which was the result of
"Old Sleuth's" industry rather than
of Mr.. Halsey's business enterprise.
In yet another respect the career of
this man is suggestive. One hesitates
to call his performances literary, vet he
must be accounted among our literary
men, and in any inventory of the COM
parative financial successes of literary
men, he would come at the top or very
near it. Howells, VINO has received a
great deal Of money from his writings

exception there is probably no Ameri-

could approximate to him, and even
Howells may not succeed in leaving

The fashion of wearing gowns in New
York courts seems likely to spread
from the bench to the bar. Already the
judges of the higher state courts, like
the justices of the federal bench, APP
pear in robes, and District Attorney
Gardiner has said that he will leave
the question whether his assistants
shall wear gowns or not to their in
dividual preferences. For the benefit of
those who are not thoroughly posted on
matters of detail it is stated that
gowns similar to those now worn by
barristers in English courts are favored,
and if they are adopted, it will be nee
essary to provide gowning rooms in all
the courts, as well as wardrobes and
attendants"

There is some criticism of the Column
bia Law School because of its decision
to admit no student after the year 1908
who has not taken a college degree. 1t
is urged that such rule would have
barred out John Marshall, Abraham
Lincoln Charles O'Connor, Patrick
Henry, Reverdy Johnson, James r..
Brady and Henry Clay, as well as
scores of other great lawyers. The rule
is arbitrary, to be sure, but it affords
a convenient and practical means Of
ascertaining whether a certain stand
ard has been reached and there will
probably be few cases in which it will
work injustice. The Marshalls, the
Lincolns and the Clays cannot be kept
down. Those great characters met the
requirements for admission to the bar
