Purls, September 26.—At a meeting of the
cabinet this morning, all the members be
ing present,’a decision was taken in favor
of a revision of the trial of former Captain
Dreyfus, and the documents in the case
will be sent to the court of cassation.
The cabinet ordered the minister of jus
tice, M. Sarrien, to lay before the court of
< ~tion the petition of Madame Dreyfus,
w :• ,-f the prisoner of Devil’s island, for a
r \ isioii of her husband's case. The court
v. ill then decide the legal question as to
v.'lethet the first trial of Captain Dreyfus
was vitiated by the forgery committed by
tbe late Lieutenant Colonel Henri, who

who .onlessed to having forged a document
in th ' ease.
Th" minister of justice has announced
that lie has given instructions that pro
c-dings are to be taken Immediately
a:, ainst any one attacking the army.

It is supposed that the instructions to
prosecute any one attacking the army were
Issued at the request of General Chanoine.
The city is excited and the bourse is in
a disturbed condition. Conservative papers,
however, counsel the people to remain calm.
It is doubtful if the action of the cabinet
is popular among the masses, particularly
the country people, who it is pointed out,
"still cling to the fetich of the honor of
the army.”
The crowds of people outside the minis
try of the interior, where the cabinet coun
cil was held, loudly cheered the ministers,
and there were shouts of "Vive Brisson,"
"Vive le revision."
In The Intransigeant today Henry Roche
fort accuses Major Esterhazy of having
been bribed by the so-called Dreyfus syndi
cate to “cover himself with dishonor by
confessing to a forgery, of which charge
he was twice acquitted.” M. Rochefort
adds that lie paid Esterhazy 1,000 francs for
copies of all the documents in the ease,
and that in addition, with two other news
paper men, he paid Esterhazy, who was
literally without a centime, 300 francs
monthly to prevent him fronj dying of hun
ger while waiting to obtain a pension. Con
tinuing, M. Rochefort says:
"Recently, without any' apparent Incen
tive, Esterhazy mysteriously wont to Lon
don, abandoning his 301 francs monthly.
Why this emigration? Who paid for bls
journey? With what money' has Esterhazy
paid for his meals?”
M. Clemenceau, in The Aurore. remarks:
“France is divided into two camps, those
who conceive that the interests of the
country depend on tile concealment of f acts
by lies, ami those who have a sufficiently
high esteem of the country to separate en
thusiasm from the aspirations of Justice
and truth."
The Libre I’a role asserts that Major Es
terhazy has telegraphed to the minister of
war, General Chanoine, protesting against
Hie story' published in The < ibserver of
London, purporting to be a confession made
by the major, the substance of which was
that he was the author of the bordereau,
a document which Is said to have furnished
proof of the guilt of Dreyfus.
Explains the Dreyfus Affair."
London. September 27. -The Daily Nows
tills morning commences the publication of
a series of articles which it alleges explain
the Dreyfus affair. Tod iy’s article concerns
the resignation by Mr. <'asimir-l’erier. of
the French presideiv y. which it describes
as a strange, sad story. The ar.i de ‘ ays:
"The persons in the secret are the kaiser,
Count von Munster. M. Dupuy. M. liai.o
taux. General Mercier, General Boisdeffre,
Colonel Sellwarzkopp'-n, Count Esterhazy
and the late Henri Sandherr. Besides the
French m? asters, others had the dossier in
tin ir hands.
"In December, 181)4, a detailed report of
the Dreyfus affair, which Count von Mun
ster seat by the usual courier to tile kal-er,
was Intercepted and photographed al the
French frontier. Yet it ri ached th- em
peror without delay a few days later U his
fact became known to the information bu

von Munster to demand his passport. , for
the offense was regarded as robbery ami
an offense to tile emperor on ti.e principle
of extra-territoriality. When Count ton
Munster made this demand at th- palace
of tile Ely.si e President Casima -1 'eri' -r w.is
overwhelmed witli the sudd'-niie-s of tie
revelation and was beside himself, in an
extraordinary scene he gave ins Word of
honor, repudiating ail connection with or
knowledge of the affair and solemnly im
posed to prevent a repetition of it.
"Count von Munster was s.iti: li d and
sent a sect ml report of this inn r •> w. This
document was similarly inure-p d and
photographed, the negative arriving at the
French foreign otlue within forty ■ .g t
hours.
•’Some days later, on January 12, IS. li.
Count von Munster called at the palace of
th- Elysee ami suddenly announced that
Germany would mobilize her troop- forth

“ ’Tell your emperor 1, myself, will give

"Two days later M. Caslmir-I’ericr re
signed."
Esterhazy Sold the Document.
The Dailv Chronicle this morning pub
lishes a letter from Mr. Coneybar, in
which the writer declares that Major Es
terhazy himself sold the documents men
tioned in the bordereau to Schwa rzkoppen,
together with 160 other documents, and
that Colonel Schwarzkoppen paid Ester
hazy £BO monthly for two years for es- '
pionage. He denies that Colonel Sandherr I
ordered Esterhazy to write the bordereau I
and appeals to the latter to “tell the whole i
truth instead of silly falsehoods.”

Here about the middle of August, came Mr.
Bayard, to bo the guest of his daughter
and son-in-law. Ho was sick, but it was
given out that his illness was merely duo
to declining years. He steadily' grew weak
er, however, and Iliad spells of semi-con
sciousness and of delirium. A consulta
tion of physicians was held August 26t'ii,
and they agreed that Mr, Bayard was suf
fering from artorie-colorosi and a general
breaking down incident to age. He suf
fered no pain to any noticeable degree,
and the chief tendency was to sleep. Dur
ing the lirsl few weeks of his illness Mr.
Bayard was able to sit up. but as the days
passed he became gradually weaker, and
three weeks ago be laid 'himself on his lied
and never again rose from it. At times
'he would rally to some extent, but the re
lapse carried him always nearer the end.
His wonderful constitution resisted the rav
ages of disease for a surprising period.
Much of the timo he was in a seml-con
scioiis condition, seldom recognizing .my
of the family, and at Intervals having
sinking spells, accompanied by <-hoking.
Tlhese left him always Weaker. Yesterday
it became evident that his de.itTi was a m u

FAMILY AND ANCESTRY OF
THOMAS FRANCIS BAYARD
; Thomas Francis Bayard was a distin
guished member of an eminent family.
- Since long before the revolutionary war
l ! times the Bayards have been conspicuous
. in the country’s history as patriots and
I many' acquired national fame as Jurists.
| Nicholas, the first ancestor to come to
i America, a son of an Amsterdam mer
chant, though of French Huguenot ex
traction and a nephew of Governor Stuyve
sant. was secretary of the province of
. New York in 1672, mayor of New York in
1685 and holder of several other important
provincial offices. Colonel John Bayard, a
grandson, was a member of the provincial
i council of 1771; a leader of the movement
I for independence in Philadelphia ; a mem
■ ber of the council of safety; colonel of the
Second Continental regiment raised in
Philadelphia in 1755; speaker of the as
sembly' In 1777; member of the continental
congress In 1785, besides having been hon
ored with many' other offices of great trust.
Four members of the Bayard family', di
rect descendents of the foregoing, have had
senatorial honors bestowed upon them by
the little state of Delaware—Thomas Fran
cis Bayard, ids father; James Asheton
Bayard, his grandfather, of the same
name, the negotiator of the treaty of
Ghent, and his uncle, Richard Henry Bay
ard. His grandmother’s fac.»er, Governor
Bassett, of Delaware, was also Ulie recipi
ent of senatorial honors.
Thomas Francis Bayard was born in
"Wilmington, De!., Oct. 29th, 1828, and was
a younger son. In his thirteenth year ho
entered school at Flushing, L. 1. Here he
remained two years. At the expiration of
I tlfat period, being intended by his father
j for mercantile pursuits, a clerkship was
j obtain' d for 'him in the establishment of
i Mr. Bayard’s brother-in-law. August Van
I Cortlandt Schermerhorn. Heic bo received
i an excellent business training.
In IMS hts eider mother died, whereupon,
I at the request of his parents, be returned

father’s profession, that of law, he became
a student with that end in view and was
admitted to the bar in 1851. He immediate
ly began t lie practice of his profession with
ids father and was successful from the
beginning, his local fame spreading rapid
ly. In 1853 he was appointed Cnited States
district a' orney for Delaware, but resign
ed in the following year, in 1855 Mr. Bay
ard! removed to Philadelphia, where he
I formed a legal co-paitnersh : p with William
I Shippen. This connection lasted live years,
I be'ng t'-rniinated by the death yf Mr. Ship-
I pen. Mr. Tlayard, on the death of bis
j father, returned to Wilmington, where lie
i w.as needed by' his father, who was then
j engrossed with public duties. When the
; war of '.he rebellion began Mi Bayard
; was pursuing his profession. With the lirst
| mutterings of war the people of Wilming
i mu set aoout establishing means of self
protection. A militia company was or
i ganized and Thomas F. Bay n d w ts elected

[ Almost at the outset of bis senatorial j
career. Mr. Bayard took a I- ading posi- i
tion on tlic democratic side. Senator Bay- I
aril took an active part in the <1 •■..•ussiotm 1
concerning the presidential election ;
1876, and was an advocate, and subse- i
quently a member of the eleetoral eonnnis- ;
In October, 1856, Senator Bayard was :
mariiei' to Lotii a. daughter of Jo, in ii le . 1
a. Baltimore banker. Twelve children ’
were the result of t'he union. In 1877 Sen- t
ator Bayard received the honorary degree {
! of LL D., from Harvard college.
When tho democratic convention was I
held in 1880 his friends rallied in force to
secure his nomination for tin- presidency, '
anil such was their strongt h and t ile popu
lar fe- ling for him that on t'iie first ballot
he sto ><l next to Hancoek, who was nomi
nated on the second ballot. In the (lem
ocr.itic convention of ls z l. at. which Mr.
(’lev-land was nomlnat'-d. Mr. Bayard re
ceived the next largest vote to the suc
cessful candidate on the two ballots which
were tt.-ken. As soon as the result of t ;e
national election of D'l was positively
known, Mr. Bayard was t'he first demo
cratic statesman invited to consult with
I'residen'-elect Cleveland, and it was gen
erally understood that he was t ie first
man offered a place in th'- n> w eablni t- - nd
tlie leading place at that. This hi finally i
accepted, although, it is said, h< was
strongly advised by leading democrats not
to enter the cabinet at all, as his depar
ture from t in-seiiat- would tend to w ik a
