ZURLINDEN SATISFIED OF DREYFUS' GUILT PARIS, Sept. 10.—Expectation was disappointed to-day. The Ministerial Council was to have held a special sit- ting with the object of hearing the War Minister’s account of the Dreyfus case and the newly discovered delin- | quencies of the staff officers. But Gen- | eral Zurlinden, finding he had not yet | the ground upon which to form af sound opinion, asked for an adjourn- | ment. He is a serious honorable- | minded, worthy colleague of the con- | It Is the Chief Executive’s Desire That the Truth Shall Be Ascertained and [ Made Known.

Being a Protestant and of Bourgeois breeding, | he does mnot share the ultra-Catholic, anti-Jewish feeling noticeable at the ‘War Office. Having been a prisoner of war in Germany in 1870 and being an | Alsaclan, he is warmly patriotic and would sympathize with th: military judges of Dreyfus should he find evi- | dence of guilt. General Zurlinden was | to have given a verdict to-day. 1!‘: against reopening the case he would | have retired to leave the Government a free hand. Judging frem the disappointment when news was received that the coun- cil had adjourned, the Dreyfus case is in a good channel.

A semi-official note, issued this even- ing, says the Minister for War has handed to the Minister of Justice the papers in the Dreyfus case, with his definite opinion thereon. The council, it is added, will on Monday decide defl- nitely upon the course to be pursued. A Historical Lecture.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—A Washing- ton special to the Herald says: Presi- dent McKinley is waiting to hear from the men he has asked to serve on the committee to investigate the conduct of the war before announcing his se- lections. Among those who have been asked to serve are Lieutenant General John M. Schofield, retired; General John B. Gordon of the Confederate army; General Granville M. Dodge; President D. C. Gilman of Johns Hop- kins University; General Charles F. Manderson; Former Secretary of War Robert T. Lincoln; Former Secretary of War Daniel S. Lamont; W. W. Keene, M.D., of Philadelphia, and Col- onel James A. Sexton, commander-in- chief of the Grand Army of the Re- public. This committee may consist of nine members, or there may be only seven, but I was informed by a member of the Cabinet to-day.that it is the intention of the President to have its personnel S0 as to give it such a broad scone of inquiry that its conclusions will command the respect and confidence of the country. I was told that each of the staff departments mentioned in the Pregident’s dispatch would be inves- tigated from top to bottom. All rec- ords will be thrown open to the com- mittee,»which will be charged with finding out just where: the difficulty was in each instance. These investi- gators are to take up the transactions of former' departments and follow them from the head of the bureau in Wash- ington down through intermediate channels to the lowest subordinate and find out where the breakdowns were.

The three generals, who worked some time as a hospital and camp ex- amining corps, report that the condl- tions in the various hospitals were found very unsatisfactory. They state the hospitals were not. provided .with the proper necessities; that they did not have a sufficient number of attend- ants; that they were badly located, and that they were in every way inad- equate. SECRETARY ALGER IS NOT ANXIOUS TO TALK DETROIT, Sept. 10.—Secretary Alger arrived at the Michigan Central station from the East at 9:45 to-day. After ar- riving home General Alger sald he ex- pected to remain until a week from to- morrow. Being asked to make a state- ment for publication relative to the charges against his administration of the War Department, the Secretary re- plied: “Now, what do you want me to do? Get down in the sewer with these sen- sational people? They are not worry- ing me.’ There is nothing to the charges excepting somebody’s desire to make political capital. I have asked the President to appoint the strongest commission it is possible to secure to conduct an inquiry into the conduct of the war. It will be made up of some of the ablest army officers and its work will be of the greatest importance, as applied to the past and as affecting the future. Its greatest value will be in perfecting the entire organization of the army and applying in this provision the lessons of the past.” At Pompeii a mosalc life-size portrait of a woman, the first antique portrait in mosaic ever discovered. has bee found near the house of th: Vettii.

An- other member of the committee, M. Lo- pellettier, has found relaxation from legal toil in Greek literature. = All six are men of unblemished character and in the habit of sifting evidence. The six will set to work directly the War Minister gives his opinion.

They are beginning. to understand that the general staff is no better than when it rendered the military disasters of 1870 inevitable, The resignation of General Bolsdere as chief of the general staff is a stand- ing puzzle, and it arouses suspicions | that only a public trial can quiet.

That event utterly discredits the Intelligence Department of the War Office, and, indeed, dis- credits the whole general staff. No more grewsome event - has ever shocked human sentiment and con- sclence, and though it happened within sight of Paris, it is shrouded in mys- tery. Colonel Henry's is the second suicide connected with the Dreyfus af- fair. The first suicide was that of Le Mercier Pickard, an intelligence agent of the general staff of Colonel Schwartzkoppen, the German military attache here, and of the Italian Em- bassy. He was found suspended from a lamp hook in a celling. Was he mur- dered? Was he a suicide? The sus- picious facts of his death were hushed up by the late Government and M. Le- pine, the former prefect of police. The reported suicide of Major Count Esterhazy was a canard. He knows where too many skeletons are concealed not to feel safe. He will die a nat- ural death, but fresh revelations may lead to others following Colonel Henry. The fairies, as in the Greek tragedies, seem to enter into this drama. The fall of General Boisdeffre brings the drama home to the imperial court of Russia, where, as a brilliant aristo- cratic military attache, he was a great favorite. He was admitted to the in- timate festivitles of the imperial fam- ily and was a favorite waltzing partner of the Bmpress Dowager in her danc- ing days.
