MAN Who CLEARED
DREYFUS IS DEAD
Gen. Picquart Was One of Most
Brilliant Officers in French
Army.

AlfIENS, France, Jan. 19.-General
Marie-Georges Picquart,> commander
of the second French army corps, who
was one of the most prominent figures
in the Dreyfus case, died here today
aged sixty years.
General Picquart, regarded as one
of the most brilliant officers of the
French army, rose to high rank at
very early age. He was an Alsatian
by birth. His skill as q llnguist,
coupled with his ability as a soldier.
led to his appointment to the general
staff 1t was while serving there that
Picquart discovered the forgeries
which had brought about the condem-
nation of Dreyfus to the horrors of
Devils Island.
Picquart thereupon became one OF
the most enthusiastic appellants for q
revision of the judgment on Dreyfus.
His zeal in this respect led to his ar
rest and Imprisonment on various
charges, which were, however, dis
missed for want OF evidence. In spite
of the courts decision in his favor he
was retired from the service through
the influence of anti-Dreyfus officials
During his retirement Picquart aid
ed by Emile lola and others, con-
tinued his work in behalf of the man
who had been unjustly condemned
He finally succeeded in having the
case brought before another court
martial at Rennes. Dreyfus was again
convicted by this court, but later Sc
cured a full pardon from President
Loubet.
This pardon did not satisfy Picquart
and the other supporters of Dreyfus,
who labored necessarily to have him
officially declared innocent. They
finally secured this verdict from the
French Supreme Court and Doth
Dreyfus and Picquart were restored to
the active list of the French army.
General Picquart afterward became
minister of war and commander OF
the Second Army Corps.
