APPEAL OF DREyFus.
Eh.Priscner OF Devils Island Asks that
His Case BE Re-0pened by Minister
or War.

Alfred Dreyfus has submitted to
Minister of War Andre of France.
a lengthy letter in which he asks for
q reopening of his case by means of
an investigation by the minister. as
the supreme head of military Justice.
The letter, which is dated Paris.
Aprilsi, confirms the reports that
Dreyfus has been living quietly
there for some time. IL promises
TO cause "a tremendous agitation
amoug the various elements of the
political groups for and against
Dreyfus. The first part of the letter
Is an earnest plea that the Court
which condemned him was impro.
perly influenced. first by the anno,a.
ted document ascribed to Emperor
william and second by the false
testimony of one of the witnesses,
Czernuski.
After arguing on the exten, to
which these contributed to his con.
demnation, Drcyfus recalls in
graphite terms the long series of
horrors TO which he had been sub.
jeeted. The letter throughout is
couched in n highly dramatic style.
which is likely to make il one of
the notable papers in the case. II
refers to Esteruazy as one who
stands before the entire world as
the culprit."
One of the leading passages.
showing the rhetorical style, Is as
follows: 81 will not retail Mr..
Minister, what have endured since
1894 Picture to yourself the hor.
rors of the soldier, whose lie was
devoted to duty, to work, to loyal.
ty and to profound devotion for
his country, and who in an instant
is stripped Of his good name and
despoilcd of the honor of himself
and his children. For five years
this soldier is subjected to horrible
sufterings. They seek to crush him
physically, to anninhilate him NOR.
ally. He is absolutely innocent of
all crime aud struggles in vain to
penetrate the mystery, proclhiming
his innocence and struggling with
all the forces of his mind and body
Tor that sumpreme pleasure Of vim
dicating his good name and char.
acter. Days, months, years, pass
thus In most cruel agony, amid the
tortures of murderous climate.
Az last he Is brought back to France,
the guilty one is discovered and
the colder hears himself proclaim
ed innocent by those who before re-
yiled him as traitor. II was thus.
Mr.. Minister, that hoped to see
my martyrdom ended.
"But, alas, IL, returned to find
the devotion offriends who had bat
tied for the truth II was to find also
that deadly hatreds had been un-
loosed."

The President of the United
States has started on another huge
swing around the circle which he
modestly calls can unpreten,ious
little outing for the purpose Of
avoiding publicity" Let us see
about that. The schedule calls for
about 400 speeches and the party
accompanying the President consists
of two SECRETARIES, one doctor, three
stenogi aphers, two secret service
men, one poet naturalist. repre-.
sentatives OF three illustrated pa
pers, representatives OF three press
associations, one official photogra-
pher, and two telegraph operators.
What a delightfully."- original way of
avoiding publicity. II is surprising
that he did not take along brass
band with which TO hunt those
bears The truth of the matter is
that the gentleman who occupies the
highest civic position in the coun-
try is never so happy as when he is
in the limelight on the front of the
stage. This trip is stumping tour
pure and simple. He wants that
nomination heap more than he
wants those bears, and he is not
overlooking any bets that will pile
up the blue chips in front of him.

WHICH SHALL 1T BE?
Law and Order League Didn't
Endorse Anyone.

The meeting of the Law and Order
league at III West Seventh street last
night didn't endorse anybody for
mayor. On Friday night the league
viii make another try and VIII have
both candidates present so it may take
a look At them before passing juds-
ment. Friday nights meeting viii be
at Unity church on Topeka avenue be-
tween Ninth and Tenth streets.
Col. Hughes constituency in the
league was notably in the majority last
night It did not, however, attempt to
force q vote and Mrs W A. McCarter,
one Of his ablest supporters in the
Third ward, made the talk which in
duced the body to adjourn without &C
ton
1t was admitted last night that the
representation was not d fair one and
those present didn't want to adopt
course which would result in a smash
up Only fifty persons were present,
there are one hundred members of the
league. An endorsement under the cir
cumstances would have been just
grounds for complaint from the can
didate who was turned down.
Several things were recognized by
the league. It was generally conceded
that the condition of having two very
desirable candidates was unfortunate.
The situation demanded tact. COnsid-
cradle expedition in deciding on its
course was admittedly desirable on ac-
count Of tie possible appearance OF a
third candidate. representing the wet
end of the party. With the forces Of
the league disOrganized such a candi-
date would be a grand stand favorlte
IN the race One thing was decided,
namely that the league should pick its
candidate soon. Friday nights meet
ing is for this purpose and in the
meanwhile a committee is TO visit both
candidates and to ask under what con
ditions either will withdraw from the
ma yoraIty race.
Prof NJ l. Field presided at last
sion was over the question of giving the
leagues endorsement to one or the
other candidates. There was a nice
fireworks display over this, F. G. Dren-
ming, F. P Lindsay. J. 4 TrOutman.
Peter Hell and others contributing to
the affirmative Dell keizer, MS he
Garter. Frank Foster and o. K Swayze
advised delay. The compromise was on
Friday night.
Throughout the meeting there was a
studied effort to keep away from an
actual discussion OF the relative merits
of the two candidates There were a
number OF Bergundthal people present
but they were not demonstrative- Par
tiza1ship with either man was not
acrid and nothing occurred to raise the
temperat ure of the meeting.
The Law and Order league is not
now IN condition to fight any sort of q
campaign. There is no city organiZa-
ton with which to work III the differ
ent prsciDcts except what is left Of the
one used year ago This will have
to be Overhauied and repaired but
nothing in this direction has yet been
accomplished Judging from the at
tendance last night however, the mem
beers are willing to work if they can
once get together.
