The struggle of Dreyfus' friends to
obtain new trial for him went on
increasingly. but it was not until 1899,
after the death of President Faure and
the election of I.oubet that they we're
finally successful.
Dreyfus landed in France on July |.
1899. and was placed in prison at
Rennes to await his second trial. 1t
began on August I. The same maIig-
nant 'dossier" was used against him.
Again he was convicted OH forged evil

ber to ten years detention in fort

passed on Devils island were deduct

Dreyfus, dismissed from the army,
was free man. He retired to his
estates in the country but for the last
six years he has qIietly but persist

he has now gained.

TO LIMIT SALOONS.

The ordinance introduced in the
Council Tuesday night by Alderman
Brooks is a measure that will have
far-reaching good effects. 1t is pro-
posed to issue no additional saloon
licenses until the population of the
city shal be equal to two thousand
persons for each saloon. Under this
ordinance the city would have to
attain sixteen thousand population
before any saloon license additional
TO those now outstanding could be
issued. While it is agreed to reissue
licenses to those now in existence, if
one Or two of these should fail to
take out new license the number of
saloons would be decreased, as the
provision for licensing the present
saloons would not apply to new ones
to take their places. Herding them
closely together is also an excellent
plan.
