Alton Railroad Appeals.

Chicago, July l7.-Judge Peter S.
Grosscup in the United States circuit
court Monday granted the Chicago c
Alton railway company, J. NJ Faith
orn and Fred A. Wann, writs of sup
erseGrIJ staying the execution of a
fine aggregating 100000. assessed
against the defendants short time
ago by Judge Lands in the United
States district court on charges of
gra ating illegal rebates to the
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger packing
corporation. At the same time a
bond cl 100000 covering ihej fine
pending an appeal of the case to the
United States circuit court of appeals
was filed by the defendants. This is
practically a friendly proceeding be-
cause both sides of the case are de-
sirous of having a decision of civil
courts on the rebate question.

Captain Alfred Dreyfus, of the artil
lery, a member of wealthy Hebrew
family of Alsace, where he was born
in 1859, was ION October IA, 1894 ar
rested on the charge OF communicat
ing French military secrets to Il
foreign power. Two months later
Dreyfus was tried by court martial
and found guilty and January he
was publicly degraded and deported to
Devils Island, near Cayenne, French
Guinea. there apparently to spend the
remainder of his life. The friends and
relatives of Dreyfus notably his wife
always believed in his innocence and
devoted all their energies to the work
of proving that he had been unjustly
condemned.
Col. Iicquart, when he became chief
of the intelligence department of the
French army in 1895, examined the
docume hts in the proceedings against
DreyfuS, and questioned the correct
ness of the proceedings, and, continu-
ing his investigations. formed the
opinion that the evidence pointed tc
Major Count Esterhazy as being the
guilty man. Picquart determined III
see that Justice was done and there
ensued a fight to preserve the honor
of the French army.
Dreyfus. on November 49, 1897
charged Esterhazy with writing tho
most discriminating document but the
latter was acquitted by a court martial
in the following January.
The late Emile lola warmly espoused
the cause of Dreyfus and made serious
charges against the French general
staff and was condemned to pay
heavy fine and suffer Imprisonment
but the sentence was quashed.

The ALTON FINED $4,000.
The Railroad Granted Rebates to
Kansas City Packers.
FaithOrn and Wann, Two Former
officials, Must Pay $4,000 Each
An Appeal Taken.

Chicago, July 12.-Judge Lands, In
the United States district court
Wednesday sentenced the Chicago &
Alton road, which was recently con-
victed of granting illegal rebates at
KANSAS City to pay a fine. of $4,000
on each Of two counts, or total of
100000. John Faithorn and Fred A.
Wann, former officials of the road who
were also convicted, were sentenced to
pay fine of $4,000 each on two counts,
)r total Of $4,000 each
The defendants were fined on two
counts of an indictment containing
ten counts. The specific charge on
which they were convicted was that
they had given to the Schwarzschild &
Sulzbereer company a rebate of one
dollar per car on all shipments from
the Kansas City plant of the packing
company. The defendants claimed
that the charge was made against
them by the packing company which
had the right to levy it because it
owned the track near the plant and
therefore had the right to charge the
railroad for trackage. Judge Lands
In his instructions practically directed
the jury to bring a verdict Of guilty
and after it had been rendered the
attorneys for the railroad and for the
individual defendants asked until
Wednesday to show that the rebate
was public and not a secret affair.
Wednesday the attorneys for the
railroad said that they had not been
able, to bring witnesses into court %
testify because they feared prose-
cution themselves.
The court in passing sentence said
that he could see no ex,en,iAting cir
cumstances in the granting of the re-
bates. After the entering Of the sem
tence the defendants gave notice of
an appeal The fine inflicted by Judge
Lands is identical with that imposed
on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad in similar case by Judge
Bethea in the United States circuit
