ON THE BRINK OF A CRISIS,

Trouble Over the Dreyfus Affair.

A MILITARY COUF D’ETAT IS FREELY CONJECTURED.

President Faure Said to be Acting the Part of Dictator.

Paris, Sept. 15.—France is on the

brink of the gravest crisis since the birth of the third repnblic. The situation is briefly this: Premier Brisson and all the members of the cabinet with the exception

of Curlingin, minister of war, and possibly Lockroy, are conviaced of the absolute ne~ cessity of revision in the Dreyfus case in the interest alike of justice and of the state, Brugere has signified his willing~ ness to take the portfolio of war and accept

vision will bedecreed. President Faure bas caused it lo be rumored that he will resign if it is granted. No one believes that he will resign, brt every one sees that the threat to do so is a desperate expedient to get rid at one blow of Brison’s cabinet and it is fondly heped,of revisionalso. But Faure’s unconstitutional action im directly interfer~ ing with respoasibility in the cabinet af~ fords an example of the lawlessness in high places which is tbe first step toward revi-~ siov. He is accused of dictatorship, and if he succeeds in destroying the Brisson cab-~ inet it will be the act of adictator. The

Dreyfue agitation can now be suppressed

only by the exercise of arbitrary power. Pre- aident Faure has made himeelf the champ'- on of the army and its tainted chiefs, who

will do anything to avoid the exposure that revisioa would entail, and they are ready to place that arbitrary power at his haods. Amilitary coup d’etat is there- fore freely conjectured as the probable out- come of the crisis should President Faure’s effort to bulldoze the Brisson cabinet fail. Paris, Sept 15. — The Matin today says that while the cabinet ie divided as to the authenticity of certain documents in the Dreyfus case, all the ministers admit they were not communicated to the defen - se. Hence, *the paper adde, a revision of the tria} will bring up the question of the responsibility of Gen. Mercier, who was minister for war at the time Dreyfus was convicted. This is the zeason for the bes- itancy of the cabinet.

The Echo de Paris says M. Emil Zola is jn Switzerland, and that he will retuyp to Paris early in the month of October. He lie said to be preparing an address to the public which will be posted in the princi- pal towne of France.

A DOZEN SEATS ARE VACANT.

Possibly of a General Election Soon Not Uniikely:

Orrawa,Sept 15,--Ast last it is officially announced that Judge Dugas, of Montreal, bas been appointed to succeed Judge Mc- Guire in the Yukon district, the order-in-

council having been signed by his Excellency the sovernor General. Mr. Beausoleil, M. P,, for Ber-

thier, will succeed Judge Dugas, as Po- lice Magistrate at Montreal. This will make another vacancy in the Jiouse of Commons, andthere are now 0 wany vacancies owing to deaths and appoint~ mente, that it will not be surprising if there is a dissclution anda general elec- tion before another sessiva. There are pow nearly a dozen seats vacant, or about to become so, through appointments to office, andthereare more than 4a dozen members who*fwant to get something,”
