Tim pardon Is a part of the general
policy of amnesty by the present gov
ernment, mill Is .an logical outcome of
the Incongruous verdict. By formal
condemnation the nillltuij chiefs are
fiiitlntlfd and pressing reasons for their
pioscciitlou In avoided. Much of the
foreo must be knocked out of tho Drey
fim campaign, and Incidentally o'it of
foreign criticism.
Leading newspapers of the world
unanimously Interpret Dreyfus' pardon
as an admission of the government's
conviction that tho verdict was opposed
to tho evjdcnco. They say that If It Is
otherwlso tho government has delib
erately condoned treason.
Under the heading, "Declaration du
Capltaino Dreyfus," tho Paris Auroro
publishes tho following.
"The government of the republic ro
stores to mo my freedom. It Is noth
ing to mo without honor. From thU
day forth I continue, to seek reparation
for tho ghastly Judicial error of which
I am still tho victim.
"I wish Franco throughout should
know by n final Judgment that I am
innocent. My heart will not be at rest
until there Is no longer a Frenchman
who Imputes to mo an abomlnablo
crime which nnother committed.
"ALFRED DREYFUS."
Tho London Times publishes tho fol
lowing dispatch from Liverpool: "A
quantity of luggage has arrived hero
from Havre and Folkestone addressed
to Mmo. Dreyfus, and rooms have also
been taken at a local hotel. Tho lug
gago Is marked for New York, and It
Is supposed that Dreyfus Is go?ng to
America."
Tho Paris correspondent of tho Lon
don Dally Telegraph says: "Droyfus
Is so ill that ho can live only a few
months. Tnt ''government has prom-1
Jsed to watch over and protect him, and
has recommended that ho live on tho
