RY BE fl HOPX Tdegranie Knnctfnciog That Dreyfus Isi’tad PARIS BREATH EXCITED Dreyfus Letter Abandoning Hope Lends Color To Rumor. Parle, Nov. 14.—1 tis reported here thio evening that Dreyfus ia ■ dead. The rumor is understood to be .based upon a mysterious telegram received from Colmar, capital of Upper Alsace, signed by an un known correspondent. So far as can be ascertained there is no confirmation of the re port . The father-in-law of Droyfue says he lias received excellent re ports from the colonial offiee quite recently as to the prisoner’s health. Despite these assurances there are dark rumors afloat. In view of the curious manner in which the letter from Dreyfus declaring that he had abandoned all hops, was conveyed to Mme. Dreyfus Friday many people believe he is dead. A dispatch on Friday said that Mine Dreyfus had applied that day at the (ffioe of the minister of the colonies tor p'-rmiesion to *e;;d her husband some warm c'ntl.i 4 'or his return home The r*qu s' wi« reiascd on lhe ground that the government would d> wha'ever was necessary. Al th-* same time, according to the dispatch, 'he authorities read a letter from her husband to the efl'dct that having for five months addressed appeal* for revis on to Gen. De Boisdaffre (recently chief of staff of the French army) witb oat getting any reply and being weary and exhsusted by his useless appeals be would write no more to his family or to anybody. He described himself as ill and dying and bequeathed to the “gen erosity of my country the case es rehabilitating my memory.” It appears that Mme. Dreyfue then requested permission to tele graph her husband the decision of the court of cassation. This re quest was also refused. Thea, through a friend, she appealed to President Faure. but with no bet ter result. The dispatch said her coansel would bring the whole mat ter before the court of cassation. • ■ ~ fore taking up of the Philip pine question. The boundaries of the field in which that question is being worked out are being more ap parent and lhe angle of final set tlement cannot be far off. If a treaty is to result here, it may fairly be expected within three weeks, although it is not true — as reported from the I nited States today —that the Ameri cans have instractions embody ing a time limit tor the conclu— sion of the conferenee. _■ 11 THE Y WE R E GON E. ‘•I was troubled for years with rheumatism and pain in my back and side.
