Dreyfus Materially.

Paris January 5.-The Tempt has pub
lished an interview with Colonel Dupaty
DeClam on the articles published in the
Gaulois by CASTOR Pollonaise, the well
known polemist, in which it was assert
ed that the colonel recently made a depo-
sition before the magistrate investigating
the Humbert case to the effe that the
archives of the general staff contain
documents showing thlt the Humberts
were active in trying to save Dreyfus.
Colonel Dupaty DeClam confirms the
accuracy of M. Pollonaise's statements.
He adds that he was struck during the
Dreyfus affair with the activity of the
Humberts in behalf of Dreyfus. He says
the former were especially active in 1897
when everybody whom the Humberts
command worked hard to save Dreyfus.
What the liumberts wanted was money.
says Colonel Dupaty DeClam, for money
gave all the influence in behalf of Drey-
fus and the Humberts were able to set
many springs at work.
