Paris, July 2S.-The decoration of
Major Dreyfus Saturday assumed the
aspect of notable demonstration.
His brother officers who were promt
nent figures in the various stages of
the controversy we're among the spec
tators, and outside the circle of troops
stood Madame Dreyfus and the little
son of Dreyfus; Brigadier General
Picquart, who shared in the courts

other prominent men.
Previous to the ceremony Dreyfus
was presented to General Gillian.
commander of the first division OF
cavalry; General Perein and other
prominent officers, who warmly shock
hands with him, thus testifying their
satisfaction at his return to the army
The decoration was conducted in
most impressive ceremony.
After pinning the cross on Dreyfus'
breast, General Gillian gave him the
military accolade, trumpets sounding
and spectators applauding. The troops
then filed before General Gillian,
Dreyfus occupying the post of honor
on the generals right
When the march past was com
pleted trumpets again sounded four
calls, and ending the ceremony. One
of the first to reach Dreyfus was his
little son, who rushed forward and
threw his arms around his fathers
neck, sobbing violently
Officers who had not taken official
part in the ceremony also came for
ward to greet their comrade. AS
Dreyfus received the well wishes OF
his relatives and the officers, hts face,
usually impressive, twitched with emo
ton and it was with difficulty that hs
preserved his soldierly calm
Co,onel large, who also was dec ,
rated terminated his fluctuations by
conducting Major Dreyfus to the Oh
GERS quarters where Nine. Dreyfus
was waiting for him. The meeting be-
tween husband and wife was most
affectionate, spectators withdrawing
to permit them to be alone Shortly
after this, Dreyfus, accompanied by
his wife and son, emerged from the
military school and entered a carriage.
AS the major appeared. the crowd in
front of the main entrance gave him
a hearty ovation, waving handker-
chiefs and shouting "vive Dreyfus,"
vive la republique,' "vive rarmee''
The carriage was then driven SWIFTLY
in the direction of Dreyfus' home.

ASKS RECEIVER FOR
A FRATERNAl ORDER.

Des Moines, Iowa, July 21.-At
torneys for ]. B. Gossage of San
Francisco, yesterday filed an appli-
cation for receiver for the Brother
hood Of American Yoemen, a fratern-
al insurance order coveing many
western states, with headquarters at
Des Moines. They also served notice
of suits for $4,000 which Gossage
claims is due his in damages for the
cancellation of the agents contract
and for commissions on new members
secured through lis agency. The ap-
plication for a receiver is the out
growth of fractional trouble in the
order, which resulted in the ousting
of the administration about year
ago and the installation of new offic-
ers. Gossagc held his contract und-
er the old management and it was not
set aside at the time the new officers
took hold. He not long ago secured
one Judgment of $4,000 in San Fran
cisco, but this was afterwards set
aside.

can be placed on the incident" said
