NO HOPE OF DREYFOS BEING GIVEN JUSTICE The Convicted Artilleryman Must Die In Exile. LEADING PARISIAN TALKS Member of the French University Pre dicts “an Onslaught of Unparalleled Violence on the Jews,” Who Are Blnim-d For the Whole Trouble. Paris, Feb. 1. — The most ardent sup porters of the theory that Dreyfus was unjustly condemned now admit that there is no longer the least hope that justice will be done. A prominent member of the Univer sity of Paris who, from the first, has been militant champion of a revision of the trial says: “For 99 out of 100 Frenchmen, the guilt or innocence of Dreyfus is a mat ter of sentiment. All the reasoning iu the world would not induce them to change their attitude. There are mil lions of Frenchmen who will insist upon Dreyfus’ guilt in spite of any proof to the contrary. A terrible feature of the situation is that the attitude of this majority is dictated by motives which they believe to be deserving of the highest respect. I admit that some of the Dreyfusards are much to blame for this. The best cause may be ruined by disreputable adherents, and there are men on the Dreyfus side of whom every patriotic Frenchman is the natural enemy. While the majority of us have merely demanded that justice should be done, a pestilent minority has made this demand an excuse for virulent on slaughts on institutions we hold in great esteem. ” In conclusion the member of the uni versity predicted that the result of the agitation will be “an onslaught of uu paralleled violence on the Jews, as the masses are convinced that they are at the bottom oi the whole trouble.” Count Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy was oiiicially informed yesterday that his testimony before the court of cassa tion in the Dreyfus inquiry being con cluded, proceedings against him qa. criminal charges -would be resumed in 24 hours. He left at once for an un known destination by the Northern railway. FISTICUFF IN THE CAPITOL. Mayor of Tuscaloosa and Representa tive Lacey Go Together.

Mr. Lacey then placidly remarked that he was the father of former Cadet Lacey, who hazed Mayor Jem sou’s son at the University of Alabama hist Octo ber, and whom the mayor had called from his room in the university dormi tory after midnight one night se verely horsewhipped. After a short conversation Mr. Lacey struck Tuscaloosa’s mayor in the face. Mr. Jemison defended himself, but Mr. Lacey got in several other licks be fore friends separated the contestants, and Mr. Jemison’s face was caused to bleed freely. Mr. Lacey escaped injury. Mr. Jemison is a man of recognized courage, but it is understood in the lob bies that he and Mr. Lacey have recon ciled their differences. NEW ROAD IN PROSPECT.

PLEASED AT THE OUTLOOK Confident of Defeating All but One of the Various Measures R ceutly li< trod need in Connection With tile Peace Treaty. Washington, Feb. 1. The senate committee on foreign relations today discussed the various declaratory reso lutions before tho senate in connection with the peace treaty and decided no longer to oppose the taking of a vote upon any of them. The first vote will oome on the mo tion to refer the Bacon resolution to the committee and this will not be op posed by the members of the commit tee. The committee is confident that the result will be favorable to the mo tion to refer. The committee is also confident of disposing of all the other resolutions in accordance with their ideas. They count upon having all the reso lutions except that offered by Mr. Sulli van voted down. They will not oppose the Sullivan measure aud it now looks as if it would be adopted. The Sullivan resolution is as follows: “That the ratification of the pending treaty of peace with Spain shall in no wise determine the policy to be pursued by the United States in regard to the Philippines, nor shall it commit this governor nt to a colonial policy; nor is it intended to embarrass the estab lishment of a stable, independent gov ernment by the people of these islands whenever conditions make such a pro ceeding hopeful of successful and desir able results.” A RESOLUTION BY LINDSAY. Declares Against, llie Admission ol Distant Territory. Washington, Feb. I.—ln the sma’o today Mr. Lindsay (Dom., Ivy.) offered a joint resolution declaring, against thi admission into the Union of territory not adjacent to and geographically a part of this coiitim-nr. At Mr. Lindsay’s request the resain tion was left on the table subject to call. In accordance with notice previously given, Mr. Rawlins of Utah addressed the senate on the Vest antiexpausion resolution. An effort was made to secure consent to vote tomorrow on the Bacon and other resolutions, but Mr. Garter of Montana objected unless the vote could take place after Mr. Spooner addressed the senate. At 2 o'clock the senate went into ex ecutive session to consider the peace treaty. The house today, immediately after the reading of the journal, went into committee of the whole, (Mr. Hopkins of Illinois in the chair) and entered upon the consideration of the river and har bor bill. Mr. Burton, (Rep., O.) chairman of the river and harbor committee, opened the debate with a general statement of the necessity of continuing the river and harbor work. This country, he said, was now en tering upon an era of commercial ex pansiou. The vast amount of our ex ports, as well as their excess over im ports. was the marvel of the commercial world. The greatest factor in this ex pansion was the improvement of our rivers and harbors in order to cheapen the cost of transportation. We had expended iu all $320,000,000 in river aud harbor work. The estimates upon which this bill was based aggregated 000. The committee recommended amounts of over $300,000,000. EAGAN PLEADS FOR MERCY. Growing Belief flint McKinley Will 31 odify the Senteiic’. Washington, Feb. 1. Commissary General Eigan, having learned that the courtmartial found him guilty of con duct unbecoming an officer and a gen tleman, the penalty of which is dis missal from the service, is seeking to have influence brought to bear upon the president to modify the sentence. He has called upon a number of senators. There is a growing feeling that the president wall so modify the sentence as to permit General Eagan to go upon the retiring list. This could be done )±y suspending him for a time just before the date of his retirement. It has been stated, however, that the president does not purpose being even that severe upon the commissary general. It is the belief today, apparently well founded, that some of the officers who composed the court have joined in a note to the president a-king the exercise of clemency, but, as stated last Satur day, the verdict of the court is unquali fied, no mercy having teen recom mended by the court as a court. A Paris Youth Guillotined. Paris, Feb. I.— Albert Peuguez, a youth who murdered a woman aud boy, was guillotined here today.

He bore the reputation of being a quiet, peaceable man. Riley was about 30 years old and uuuiarried. It seems there was a snowball battle at Hatchechubbee, in w hich DeLacy and Riley participated. The affair caused hard feeling in some way. DeLacy and Riley got into ail argument over some trivial feature of the matter. DeLacy said Riley must retract certain remarks that he bad made. Riley declined to de so. DeLacy went off, muttering threats. About 11 o’clock DeLacy re-eutered the store, armed with a shotgun. This he deliberately, and without warning, discharged at Riley, who was killed ij stantly. A negro present made a movt to save Riley, and DeLacy, enraged, tried to kill him. He was prevented by C. E Ingram, an artesian well man. who seized his gun. Ingram was i* turn attacked, but not injured. De- Lacy then left the store. Going to hi* home, he got a pistol aud shot himself, dying at once.
