DREYFUS CASE IS DEAD
Discoverer or Forgeries That Lead to
Condemnation Succumbs at the
Ago of 60.

Amiens. France, Jan. 19.-General
Marie-Georges Picquart, commander
of the second French army corps
who was one of the most prominent
figures in the Dreyfuss case, died to-
day aged 60.
Pisquart rose to his high rank at
a very early age. While serving on
the general staff, Picquart discovered
forgeries which had brought about the
condemnation Of Dreyfuss to the hor-
rors Of Devils Island.
Picquart thereupon became one Of
the most enthusiastic appellants for
q revision Of the judgment Of Drey-
fuss. His activity in this respect led
to his arrest and imprisonment on
various charges, which later were dis
missed for lack Of evidence.
In spite of the courts decision in
his favor, he retired from the service
through the influence of anti-Dreyfuss
officials. :. ..+-.s
