GEN. BOISDEFFIE'S V1S1 L

COMPIEGNE, September 2o.-The czar is
spending today in comparative repose after
a couple of very fatiguing days. He pass
ed the morning in his apartments. An au-
tomobiIe ride through the magnificent 1or-
est of COmpiegne to the ancient chateau OF
Pierrefonds had been arranged but the
morning was cloudy after a nights rainfall
and the car remained in the salon with
ont signifvine what he intended to do until
lunch time
Even President Loubet was kept in sus-
pense and was ignorant of the czar's inten-
tiOns. The latter part of the morning was
devoted t. an exchange OF visits with varl-
Gus personages. The weather frightened
in the afternoon and crowds of people IN
vaded Compiegne from Paris and the neigh
boring towns in the hope of obtaining
glimpse of the czar. but they were disap-
pointed. The streets are still decorated
and will be illuminated this evening.
Forest Full of Detectives.
After luncheon the czar and czarina
drove in a laundsu through the forest to
Pierrefonds to visit the historic chateau.

diers who allowed nobody to approach the
road along which the imperial couple drove.
Gen. Bolsdeffre, the former chief of the
French staff was received in civilian cloth
ing BY the czar today. Owing to the gen.
erals connection with the Dreyfus case,
the nationalist papers have been trying to
make capital out of this visit. saying it is
connected with dissatisfaction in the army
at Gen. Andres conduct minister of war.
This is absolutely untrue. The visit of the
general had no political significance, but
was purely Of private nature and due to
the fact that the czar was acquainted with
Gen Boisdeffre whom he received at st.
Petersburg and met again during his last
visit to France.
The car will not visit Paris this after
noon. After his return from Pierrefonds
the Czar will act as godfather at the bap-
tism of the infant daughter of the Count
de MOntebellO, the French ambassador to
Russia, which will take place in the hall
