Petition for Revision of Sentence. —_—— PARIS, Nov. 28—The efforts of Al- fred Dreyfus to secure a judical exam- ination of his case have at last been | crowned with success. After examin-| ing the dossier in the case submitted to him by General Andre, the Minister of ‘War, Minister of Justice Valle has transmitted that document, together with the petition of Dreyfus, for a re- vision of his sentence, to M. Durand, the president of the commission insti- tuted by the Ministry of Justice. This commission will pronounce upon the admissibility of the request for a re-, vision of sentence. Dreyfus owes the favorable action ta- ken to the careful co: eration given the case by Minister Andre, whose con- clusions are regarded as in the highest degree favorable to Dreyfus, since they determined the Minister of Justice to refer the question of a revision to a commission. Nothing has yet transpired to indi- cate that General Andre has discovered documents of doubtful authenticity or that there was maneuvering on the part of the Minister of War during the Dreyfus trial to conceal important facts, though assertions to this effect have been made. It is stated that Gribelin, formerly principal kkeper o the records of the headquarters staff, has made important revelations. The commission will receive the documents pext Wednesday. The decision of Minister of Justice Valle to refer the question of a revision of the Dreyfus sentence to a commission, it is officially stated, is based upon an article of the criminal code which provides that in a case where, after condemnation, new facts develop, or where previously unknown proof of a nature which would tend to establish innocence is presented, the condemned person has a right to ask for a revision of sentence and the right to pass upon such request belongs to the Minister of Justice, who will decide after having taken the opinion of a commission, composed of three direc- tors of his ministry and three members of the Court of Cassation. The present commission consists of MM. Durand, Alphandery and Marigan of the Court of Cassation and MM. Mer- cier, Geoffery and Dupre, directors of the Ministry of Justice. M. Alphan- dery is an Israelite, M. Durand a Cath- olic and M. Marigan a Protestant. —————— Nine Hours for Workmen. JOHNSTOWN, Pa., Nov. 28.—A gen- eral order issued by the Cambria Steel Company, taking effect Monday, will place the single turn employes on a | nine-hour basis. The order affects 13,- | 000 men. The idea of curtailing the working hours of the mechanics as well | as all of the floating day labor rather than effecting economies by a shut- down is to preserve the organization, ! 80 that when the busy season arrives the Cambria shops will be effectively manned. _——— | Californians in New York.

Only men engaged In a severe out-‘ door manual labor can live on a heavy meat diet and continue in health. 1 As a general rule, meat once a day | is sufficlent for all classes women and children, and grains, fruit and vegetables should constitute the bulk of food eaten. | But many of the most nutritious | foods are difficult of digestion and it is of no use to advise brain workers to, eat largely of grains and vegetables It is always best Lo get the best re- and harmless digestive should be tak- en after meals to assist the relaxed di- gestive organs, and several years' ex- which may be taken dally with the best resuits. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets can hard- 1y be called a patent medicine, as they do not act on the bowels nor any par- ticular organ, but only on the food eaten. They supply what weak stom- achs lack, pepsin diastase, and by stimulating the gastric glands in- rease the natural secretion of hydro- chiloric acid. People who make a daily practice of taking one or two of Stuart’s Dyspep- sia Tablets after each meal are sure to have perfect digestion, which means | perfect health. There is no danger of forming an in- jurious habit, as the tablets contain absolutely nothing but natural diges- tives; cocaine, morphine and similar drugs have no place in a stomach med- icine, and Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets | are certainly the best known and most popular of all stomach remedies. Ask your druggist for a fifty-cent package of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets and after a week's use note the im- provement in health, appetite and nErvous energy. { here. | in wholesale business circleS and was | KILLS HIMSELF BUT HOLDS SEGRET Mystery in the Death of a Wealthy New York Bachelor. ! uuo m—m in Cushion T hlhm Rreatest ever offered by any PRAGERS tints Victor Banner, a Former San each, but by & SD arrangement we are Franciscan, Uses Pistol able to offer them at ........,..........13% 12 With Fatal Effect. ——————e Speclal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Nov. 28.—Victor Ba.n»i_ ner, 556 years of age, a bachelor, com- | mitted suicide in his apartments, 107 | West Sixty-ninth street, to-day by | shooting himself in the right temple. | His lifeless body, partially clothed, was found on a chair in the bathroom by a colored servant. Near by on the floor was a revolver. On the table was a note reading: “Please notify Simon -Banner, 10| West Seventy-fourth street. You know { why I have done this.” No one in the house heard the shot and the terrified maid who had ob- served the body, the bathroom door being slightly ajar, at once informed | Dr. Hatch, a dentist in the house, who notified the police. Mrs. Resinger, the | landlady, was not at home. It is inti- | | mated that Banner lost considerable | money in Wall street. Simon Banner, the man mentioned in the note, is a brother and the owner of the Del Monte, a fashionable apartment house ‘With his son, S. Morrel Banner, a lawyer, he lives at the address men- | tioned. Another brother, Peter, with' his family has apartments at the Hotel | Majestic. Simon and Peter some years ago con- ducted a dry goods store at Broadway | and Grand street. S. Morrel Banner, the nephew of the dead man, said to- | day: | “I am absolutely at a loss to account | for the suicide of my uncle. We knew little of his movements lately and rare- ly saw him. He led the life of a re- cluse since he came here several years ago from San Francisco. As to his personal affairs I know nothing. He had some money, I believe, and he was operating in Wall street. He never married.” | . R | ¥Victor Banner was for a number of years a prominent merchant in this city. He was associated with his nephew, Marcus Banner, in the whole- sale millinery business for a long time and amassed quite a fortune. He left this city about six years ago and went with his family to reside in New York. When he heard of his uncle’s sad death Marcus Banner was greatly | shocked. | “I was of the opinion that my uncle | was living perfectly happy, and so far | as I know he had no reason to end his life,”” said he. “He was well known here i considered a shrewd man of affairs and honest and upright in every transac- tion. He came out here on a visit about| two years ago, remaining for some; weeks. At that time he was in the best | of epirits, though he complained of fali- | ing health for some time previous. I| often heard from him by letter since| that time, and many times he wrote of his falling health, so'I am of the opin- jon that it was illness “hlch caused | him to end his existence. “He was a man of about 46 years of | age and of temperate habits and de-| yoted to his family. He had been liv-| ing a retired life since he forsook San | Francisco for New York, and I ami pos- | itive that it could not have been any cares or worries in the business line | that prompted the suicide.” | —_——————— BRITISH AND FRENCH 1 GROW FELICITOUS | Many Fln.ttenng ‘Words Are Passed To and Fro at a, Versailles | Function. { PARIS, Nov. 28—The members of | the British Parliament and their ladies | who are now in France returning the | visit of the members of the French ar- | bitration group to London went this | afternoon to Versallles, where after a | | flattering reception they witnessed nnE interesting series of dances of the pe- | riod of Louis XV, executed by members | of the opera ballet corps. At the con- | clusion of the dances a luncheon was | served at which a number of short| speeches favoring closer relations be- | tween France and England were made. | Delegate Miller of Canada, in his re- | marks referred to the bonds uniting Canada and France. Especial import- | ance is attached here to Mr. Miller's words because of the suggestion they contained that the British colonists might not accept the operation of the | Anglo-French arbitration treaty in ! quesions directly affecting the col- onies. The British Chamber of Com- merce in Paris tendered the visitors a reception this evening and to-night | an at home was given in thelr honor | by the Automobile Club. —_——————— WOMAN IS ACCUSED OF ATTEMPTED MURDER Mrs. Jennie Downey of Santa Bar- | bara Declares She Did Not Shoot. SANTA BARBARA, Nov. 28.—Physi- f clans in attendance upon Charles Wil- | son, the livery man of this city who was shot by Mrs. Jennie Downey last evening, report that he will probably recover. The bullet ‘entered the back and passed around the body. Mrs. Downey spent the night in the City Jail and her arraignment took place this afternoon. A complaint, charging her with assault with a dead- | ly weapon with intent to commit mur- der, was sworn to by Wilson at the | hospital this morning and the Jusuce' | of the Peace called at noon to take the | deposition of the wounded man. Mrs. Downey continues to deny that she did the shooting. Noted Musical Critic Dying. NEW YORK, Nov. 28—F. R. M. Manlnez. musical editor of the World, is dying from paralysis.

A very notable Duke, who has estates in the three kingdoms, and who holds almost princely sway over many work- ers, had occasion the other day to dis- miss a laborer for some slackness or misdemeanor. The man was angry at being “sacked,” and, having nothing something very hard and hurting to his master. He could think nothing much of the kind, for the Duke had been !good to him and to his. He was turn- ing away, when he suddenly remem- bered that the Duke’s “lady” held a position at court with the Queen. That was his chance, and his cue, so he turned round on the Duke: “Oh, yes, your Grace,” he said, “I'll go home. | But though I'm a poor man, thank God | 1 never had to send my missis out to ' service as you had.” The Duke smiled. —London Morning Post. —_—————— Another Gift From France.

Goldm Gate Chlk TS Suit House, 1230-34 Mariet st Profit in Snakes. John C. Reeves of Portland, familiarly known as “Del,” and having a national reputation as a rattlesnake hunter, has recently galned fresh laurels. Last week thirty-six rattlers, ranging from fifteen inches to four and a half feet in length, were killed by him in the Somerset Mountains, situated east of Portland. Seventeen of various lengths were killed within a space of about fifteen square feet. Some of the large snakes had nine or ten rattles, while some of the smaller had but one or two. The snakes were beautifully striped. Ten baby rattlers were found huddled together neat their nest, which was in a rock crevice. Mr. Reeves captures his snakes by stealing up on them while they are basking in the sun and pinning them to the ground with a forked stick four or five feet in length. He then uses a club. Mr. Reeves finds much sport in rat- tlesnake hunting, and also finds it very profitable. One dollar an ounce I8 realized from the ofl. The skin nets him from 25 cents to $2, and occasional- ly more for an unusually large one.— Hartford Courant. —————— Ping Pong’s Successor. “Hocker ball” is quite the latest product in the way of parlor games. Its inventor claims that it will shortly sweep the world clear of all that re- mains of ping-pong. The new game is suitable for either summer or winter, a great advantage being that it can be played sitting down by either four, six or eight players. Each of these has his own particular “court” to play in— the table is divided by tapes into as many courts as there are players— from which he endeavors to “pass” or ‘to.shoot goals. A mneutral territory 'is provided, fram which players can either pass to each other or endeavor to get the ball into their own courts, where intruders are not permitted. At each end of the table a goal is kept In the orthcdox fashion, and the game is played with miniature hockey sticks, being, to all Intents and purposes, table hockey.—London Chronicle. —_—— Lived With Bullet in Heart.
