PARIS, Dec. Cool. Alfred Drey-
fus, center of one of the most fam
Gus espionage trials in modern
history, was critically i'll today after
an operation. In recent years he has
been living in quiet retreat on the
Brittany Coast, far from neighbors.
Col. DreyfuS is the man who made
DEVILS Island infamous.
His name re-echoed throughout
the civilized world 40 years ago. A
brilliant young army officer, he was
serving at the ministry Of war in
the summer of 1894. An anonymous
letter was stolen from the German
Embassy. 1t was addressed to the
military attache. Its writer was
betraying France. The writing was
like Dreyfus'.
On the letter and some evidence
of the flimSiest sort-given in
secret, Dreyfus was condemned to
life imprisonment on Devils Island,
of which few outside France ever
had heard. 1t is the one island in
the Guiana penal settlement re-
served for traitors.
Many were convinced of his in
nocence, and fought for him.
Georges Clemenceau, The Tiger"
Emile zola, and others fought on.
Drewfus was tried again in 1899 and
again found guilty. But a pardon
was given him at once. Still his
friends fought on. Another trial
was held in 1906 and he was &C
quilted triumphantly. The evidence
against him had been forged in a

Sc government anemies, including a
woman, attested the governments
determination that his assassination
was not to be followed by others.

She and the others were convicted

the assassination of Kirov, one of
the Soviet Unions big Ten and
chief government agent at Lenin-
grad, by Leonid Micoliev. They were
executed at once.
The 66 were not charged with
completely on Kirov'S murder. That
seemed to be the result of a personal

mist official, held against Kirov.
But they died, while at Lenin-
grad surgeons worked to save Mic

bullet wound and injuries inflicted
by the guards who siezed him after
he shot Kirov. They died to express
the governments determination that
Micoliev's act should not be model

was sought so that he might be
