THE DREYFUS CASE,

A letter from Commandant Cuignet
has been published charging General
Andre. eX-minister of war. with having
made use Of forgery for obtaining the
revision of the Dreyfus case. The sue
cess of this manGuvre, which is gener-
ally considered to have been adopted in
order to mislead public opinion on the
eve Of the general election, is doubtful,
as public opinion on the Dreyfus case
is now definitely made up. While the
attorney general, who has had the Drey
fus case under consideration for several
months, inclines to the annulment of the
first decision without sending it to an
other court of justice, the Reporter is
in favor Of submitting it to another
court-martial, in which latter event
there is every probability that the in
nocence Of Captain Dreyfus will be adj
mitted and formally proclaimed.

been destroyed on every hand
"Many dead lay in the streets, and
often in broad day a dead body, still
warm, would be hoisted over wall or

sack of coal. We had a striking instance
of the utter disregard for human life
at Kieff
''From Kietf we proceeded to Odessa
and first visited the hospital. There were
forty y-seven wounded persons there.
Some of them had been terribly injured
with clubs Among them were police

''In distributing the fund we found
that many comparatively rich people
had lost all. To assist that class we ere
ated bank guarantee funds of which we
contributed certain percentage. They
could draw upon these to a limited ex-

again. Shop-keepers also received
enough to help renew their stock. but
most of the money was distributed for

it was also evident that in many such

the railway station wrecked as the re-
suit Of strike The windows were
smashed and the doors had been torn
from their hinges. 1t was altogether
very deSOlate scene. We ordered car
riages and asked to be driven to the prin-
cipal hotel, which proved to be a grand
building, but all the windows in the rest
aurant were barricaded, and we were I'M
able to get any food there on account OF
strike of walters. The members of the
local committee kindly provided for our
wants. Everywhere there was feeling
of apprehension and we were Informed
that a revolution might break out at any
minute. 1t was impressed upon us that
the moment Of our arrival was a danger

we took to Moscow the members of the
local committee had themselves collected
and distributed a great deal among the
poor and suffering.
Home of Every Jew Was Marked.
''We were greatly indebted for ac
curate information concerning existing
conditions to Mr.. Spring Rice, the at
tache of the British legation, and Dr.
Dillon, the correspondent of the London
Telegraph. They told us that on Novem-
ber 18th the house of every Jew in ST.
Petersburg was marked with chalk as
preliminary to a general campaign
against the Jewish race. 1t was headed
off by the energy of a few prominent
Jews.
''The outrages were either started
by the police or aided or abetted
by them, as the outbreaks in all
of the 3O1 places which we had
on our list started at almost the
same hour. AS l. remarked at a meet

her plans for war with Japan as sys-
tematically as these outrages were ar
ranged, Russia would have been the vic

Stensland, defauIting president of the
Milwaukee Avenue State bank, of Chi
cago, is thought to have been seen in
Colusa On Sunday afternoon a well
dressed stranger appeared at the Hotel
Riverside, engaging one of the best
rooms. Later in the evening John
Hartog, manager of the Cousa County
Chamber of Commerce, formerly of
Chicago, also had a passing acquaint-
anee with Stensland, came into the
hotel. Hartog noticed familiar look
about the stranger, who had also scru-
tinized Hartog carefully. Shortly af-
ter this the stranger left and has not
been seen since. p Poier, proprietor
of the hotel is unable to give any in
formation other than that the man had
registered as H. Smith and did not
occupy the room.
Hartog says the stranger resembles
Stensland very much, except that he
is smooth shaven.
