Zola to the Pantheon. PARIS, July 13 —The supreine court announced its decision annulling the condemuation of Alfred Dreyfus with- out a retrial. The effect of the dec sion Is A complete vindication of Drey- fus, entitling him to restoration to his rank in the army as though he had never been accused. The court found that the famous bordereau, the document found in the German embassy and for writing which Dreyfus was arrested, was real Iy written by Major Count Esterhaxzy, that forged documents were used to incriminate Dreyfus and that the Heunes court martial refused to hear essential testimony, The court therefore holds that, as all the accusations against the accused fall to the ground, there is no necessity for a new trial. and consequently the Judgment in condemnation Is annulled as unwarranted by the evidence Testimony before the court complete- fy demolished the fabric of the sccu- sation against Dreyfus and showed that the real culprit was Major Count Esterhasy. Dreyfus’ name will be inscribed on the list for the Legion of Houor. Deputy Breton iu the chamber of deputies bas given notice of a bill pro viding for the trausfereuce of Bulle Zola's remains to the Pantheon with a public ceremonial, The Dreyfus case at one period threatened the overthrow of the French government, It caused the sulclde of Colonel Heury and his secretury and the exile of the late M.

I began to feel it would never end. It is clear that the decision re stores me to my old place iu the army, but I am pot aware of the (ntentious of the government concerning my ad- vancement io rank. “I have nothing to say against my accusers. Belug again an officer I am obliged to obey the army regulatious of silence. | am Inexpressibly thank ful to all who have assisted In the maintenance of truth” Premier Sarrien announces that Drey- fus will lwwmediately be restored to the army with the rank of brigadier geneml. The palace of justice was crowded. mong those present were Mathew fus, brother of Alfred Dreyfus; i n'y COLONEL GEORGES PICQUART. Maitre Mornard, counsel for Captain Dreyfus: Josepli Reinach, the historlan of the Dreyfus affair; Colonel Picquart, Mme. Zola and many others who have figured In various stages of the cele brated case. (Captain Dreyfus was not present, continuing his habitual secrecy by remmiving secluded lo the garret where be has hitherto been cut off from the outer world. The scene as the decision was pro nounced was one of impressive dig nity. The court, cousisting of forty- nine judges, gowned in Sowing red robes, solemnly mounted the bench. Deep silence prevailed as the presiding judge read the lengthy decision, mi nutely reviewing the series of sensa. tional events of the last twelve years Dreyfus the sn judgment of the Rennes court martial, with the publication of the foal ap- pouncement of his Ignocence in fifty fewspapers to be chosen by Captain Dreyfus The reading of the decision lasted an hour, and It was only at the close that the spectators realized the sweep- ing nature of the vindication. Mathew Dreyfus hastily dispatched 8 messenger to bear the good news to Captain Dreyfus and Mme. Dreyfus, Besides the restoration of Dreyfus to the army, a special Lill will be pre- sented to parliament’ authorizing the minister of war to restore Colonel Ple- quart. whose sense of justice brought about the quashing of the verdict against Dreyfus and who was forced out of the army by the conspirators Colonel Picquart has been Dreyfus’ most coustaut champion.

Alfred Dreyfus, the central figure In one of the most dramatic cases of mod- ern politios! history, was bora in Al sace of Jewish parentage in 1589. He entered the Ecole Polytechnique in 1878, and be was appointed captain of the Twenty first regimont of artillery lo 1880. Graduating from the Staff Officers’ college the next year amoung the leading ten of his class, he was ap- poluted to the gencral staff, where he served until arrested on Oct. 15, 1894. The famous bordereau, which was the basis of the eutire Dreyfus case, consisted of fragments of a document sald to bave been found In the over- Coat pocket of the German military at- tache fu Paris, Colonel Schwartzkop- ped, In October, 1584. When fitted to gether they constituted a report touch- lng some minor war and tactical plans, obviously written by a French spy Owing to a similarity between the handwriting on the slugle page of the bordereau and that of Captain Drey- fus, and to the fact that he was the only Jew on the geueral staff, he was suspected of being the spy. He was secretly arrested. Hatred of Hebrews Was #0 strong In the army that the flimsiest apparition of evidence against bim was accepted. His trial by court martial was couducted behind closed doors, and a verdict of Kullty was ren dered on the streugth, not of the bor- derean, but of a dossler, which, In vie lation of law, was submitted Ly Geu- eral Mercler and kept secret eveu from Dreyfus’ counsel.

Though he made Bo attempt to escape, for a part of the time he was locked to his cot in his hovel by means of heavy Iron bars at- tachel to anklets. Inducenients were made to him to commit suicide, The friends of Dreyfus, particularly Colonel Picquart and Emile Zola, were tireless in pushing his case and bronght about the arrest of Colonel Heury, chief of the intelligence department, who when driven to the last ditch con- fessed that he had forged one of the Incriminating documents against Drey- fus and comiaitted suicide In prison By this time the whole of France was arrayed for or against Dreyfus, and the utmost excitement prevalled Iu mil itary, political and social eircles. But & reaction of feeling In favor of Drey- fus set in with the sulcide of Colonel Henry, and on June 8, 1899, a fresh court martial of Dreyfus was ordered, aud the prisoner was brought from Devil's island to be retried.
