PARIS, June 3.-The Court of Cas-
sation revises the Dreyfus case and or
ders a new trial before a courtmartial
at Rennes. Every one expected this
decision; still it caused hush of as
constituent. 1t was received in court
with jubilant cries of "Vive la JUS
tice." The Jewish world rejoiced at
the Saturday afternoon services in the
synagogues. Telephone messages
from the law courts apprised the SEN
ate and Chamber of Deputies of the de-
cision. In the former there is
strong Dreyfusite majority. In the lat
ter the Dreyfusites are in the minority,
but are extremely energetic and ag-
gressive. The rights are thoroughly
anti-Dreyfusite.
The announcement of the decision
was posted in the lobby, which hap
pened to be crowded, and was received
with great varieties of feelings. The
anti-Semitic journels had predicted
Amiens, where the radical spirit pre-
ponderates. Rennes is the capitol Of
Catholic Britanny, but Gen. Lucas,
commanding the Tenth artillery corps
there is a Jew. This will assure the
judges being unbiased by clerical feel
/, ings, but will afford the anti-Dreyfus-
ties an excuse for keeping up the agi-
tation on the ground that the court
martial is packed. There is no perma-
nent courtmartial at Rennes, as there
is in Paris, only a permanent parquette
or prosecuting board.
The government commissioners
charged TO prepare the case against
Dreyfus will be Major Carriere, Cath
olic; and Captain Jasquet, retired Of
ficer, will report on the evidence of
the courtmartial. Gen. Lucas will
choose seven officers for judges.
Tie Court of Cessation goes on two
new facts, namely, that the bordereau
was by Esterhazy and the secret COM
municated to the courtmartial of the
Canaille de D. letter. The letter
is extremely grave for Gen. Merciere,
and indeed, for M. Dupuy. He was
prime minister in 1894 and was in
formed of all that went on. 1t was
possible to regard, in good faith
Dreyfus as the author of the borederau.
1t was vanished up in conditions that
probably will ever be a mystery.
Esterhazy again impudently declares
himself the author. He says that Col.
Sandherr ordered him to write it. Gen.
MERCER and Dupuy and the courtmar-
tial might have been deceived about
the authorship, but the secret commune
cation betrays the cloven foot of devil
ish agents somewhere. This new fact
is not denied. General MERCER and De
Boisdeffre were refused as witnesses
before the court of cessation to answer
:hereupon and their silence was inter-
preted as assent, particularly as ex-
President Casimir Perier deposed that
Cen MERCER told him of the commune
cation. The ''Canaille de d" could
afford cause for annulation; and it
thought to be brought into the judg-
ment to enable Dreyfus hereafter to
pursue before the law courts both
generals and other members of the
general staff. Proceedings in criminal
law can be taken and pecuniary dam
ages claimed.
1t is a terrible lookout for threaten
ed generals, even though the Gear pro-
tects de Boisdeffre.

Bank CHclaIs Take Means TO Protect

1t Is said by police official at City

city banks, whose hoard of surplus
cash has been increasing largely Of
late. have been experimenting with an
expedient long In use by Bank of Eng
land officials of paying known crooks
for information OF any contemplated
raid upon their vaults. The Bank Of
England's first experiment of this kind
dates from 1850, when the directors Of
the bank listened to startling PROPOSE

The laborer told the directors that he
had discovered new and unsupported
method Of getting into the cellar vaults.
where the gold and silver bars were
kept, and that he would sell his secret

every precaution against loss from the
vaults In putting up heavy masonry,
with plenty of iron bars, and by man.

Nine. de Navarro has recorded in "A
Few Memories" the greatest lesson she
ever received against too much realism.
In a,certain drama, the heroine. under
great excitement, suddenly stops to
gain cOmposure, as she hears the APP

We obtained the effects of approach
ing wheels, but, try as we would. the
stamping of the horses feet upon the
gravel before Clarisse's door we could
not manage. At last brilliant idea
struck me, which the stage manager
promptly endorsed.
1t was that we should have in a don
key from Covent Garden to trot up and
down behind the scenes on the gravel
especially laid for him. We were de-
cidedly nervous on the first appearance
of our four-footed friend, whose role
was to counterfeit the housekeeping
horses of the brilliant French count
When his cue was given, there was
only an ominous silence. l repeated

When they kicked up terrible rough.
Said the farmer. "It's hard; allough

"Such driving for me is too rough,
I've had Of it nearly enough.
Ill give this old jackass a cough
And quit, for I'm quite in hough.
All farming is nonsense and slough
And ploughing is almighty tough.
with farming I'm glad to be through
My wife, she Is tired of it, tough.
We're wet with the rain and the dough-
And ploughing has made me quite

To the city I'll glad enough cough.
