Suspect AntI-semitIc Organization

Suspect Anti-Semitle Organization.
Paris, June 5.-Firm in the belief
that Louis Anthehene Gregori, who at
tempted to ssssssinste Major Alfred
Dreyfus in the Pantheon yesterday, was
acting as the agent of an anti-semitic
organization, the police today made q
thorough search OF his Paris spattmeuls
aud also his country villa at Parmain
10 the hope of finding compromising
p psrs. No word would be given out
as TO whether the search was successful,
but the fact that the police are continu-
ing their activity leads to the belief that
they have discovered damaging evidence.
Disturbances following the attempted
assassination of Major Dreyfus con-
tinued through the night and culmi-
mated today 10 denomination against
the government by students. The police
chsrged the students an alt fierce
clash, in which many arrests were
made, the students were dispersed. sing
ing the Msrsellaise as they fed. Troops
have been parading the streets for the
last "a hours, checking incipient riot.
In all more than five hundred arrests
have been made. The jails are over
flowing. The city Is still wildly excited
and the Pantheon affair Is on every
tongue.
The fury of the nationalist papers Ia
clearly evident. "L'Action Franchise"
prints q statement by Charles Maurras,
which the police aye already invest
eating. MaUrras says that on Wednes-
day night 90 resolute patriot visited
NJ. Daudet and Lieutenant Boisfeury
and himself aud offered TO kill Dreyfus,
but his proposal was rejected. A leading
editorial in this paper appeals to the
country to turn to the Duke of Orleans
for redress and concludes with these
words: "Do you desire that Zola's
body be elected from the Pantheon
Do You desire to march Dreyfus to the
execution block? If so, invoke your
king"

FRIDAY EVENING. JuNE 3, 1908

The ATTEMPTED assassination OF
Major Alfred Dreyfus in the Pantheon
in Paris yesterday shows to what extent
race hatred animsles some specimens OF
the human race. The attack on Drey-
fus was made by the editor OF mlll1sry
iournal who has nmtared his resentment
Of the action Of the tribunal which TWO
wear, ago declared Dreyfus innocent OF
the charge that he had sold military Sc
Gratis to the German government. Emile
lola, who died in September, addressed
TO Felix Faure, then president OF France
the famous letter "J Accuse," in which
he laid bare the conspiracy In The gen.
sral army staff against msjOr Dreyius'
Yesterday his dust was inferred win ma
tionsl houys in the Pantheon, the
French temple of fame, with impressive
ceremonies. The proposal to give zolS
glorious burial, made first In lSoo'
aroused in France oil the dormant AMI
mosit,es tbst came out during the Drey-
fus trials and the transfer OF his sshes'
although voted by the chamber and the
Senate, had to be twice postponed be-
cause of the state of public opinion DIS
order and rioting were expected yesIer'
dsy and the authorities found 1t exped'
lent TO take measures for the Preservs'
ton Of peace. The opposition to remoV-
inc the remains of lola ID the Pantheon
a,ose from the fact that he WAS thus
honored because Of his famous lstter, not
because of his literary fame. He was
the first successful leader in the Dreylus
war; he vauquished the general STAN OF

In a statement given u the press OF
the county by Parker and Bridge, the
recognized publication agents OF various
CORPORATIONS including the beef irdst, q
series of surprising revelations are made
70 the effect the recent artificial raise
md maintenance in meat prices has had
upon the packers trade over the entire
conntry. 1t is admitted in the state
ment, which is ingeniously devised IS I'D
appeal to the consumer, in the interest
of the trust stakeholder, that the ttiett
of the high prices has been boomerang
upon the trade of the companies in the
trust Since the combine sent prices
ballooning, according to quotation from
an official statement of the Armour Com
psny, in ChicsgO, the business oil thai
concern has been cut oil more than ~
per cent. This seems to show con-
clusively that, when the trust put the
prices to level which the consuming
public thought unjust, many buyers
simply refused to be imposd upon and
found a substitute for meat. Further,
the statement intimstss that as 3 result
of this falling of in trade, some OF the
companies will not pay the usual divi-
dends this year.
