THE FAMOUS PRISONER, DREYFUS, AGAIN IN ERANCE. The Mesting Between Husband and Wife â€"The Landing at Brestâ€"Journey to the Prison at Ronnes. A despatch from Brest â€" says:â€"The bharbour boat Caduan started out about 9 o‘clock Sunday night in a fierce storm, to meet the Sfax, which had been sighted far out at sea. Not till one o‘clock in the morning did a suffiâ€" cient lull occur to allow the transfer of the prisoner from one boat to another. Ever since his departure from Isle du Diable, Dreyfus had spuken very little, and even kept apart from his fellowâ€"men, and during the long hours that the venturesome little Caduan vainly endeavoured to approach the Sfax, bhe stood alone, mindiess of the raging storm, siaring moodily at the When at Ilast the transfer was made possible, Dreyfus silently took his seat in the stern of the small boat sent from the Caduan. oN FRENCH SOIL. The boat reached the shore at about 1.30 o‘clock, there being a company of infantry and a force of gendarmes and detectives in waiting. The face of Captain Dreyfus bas little changed, though somewhat thin and bronzed. It still contains the cold expression of the aristocrat, but shows no sign of suffering. He was transferred to the railway station in & closed landau, M. Vignie being his custodian. Arriving at the station the prisoner, whose majestic carriage might have suggested the rank of a general, entered a compartment of the special train which was in waitâ€" ing. All efforts of newspaper men to interview the prisoner or travel in the same train were frustrated by the offiâ€" cers of the escort. The train reached Rabelais, a small station near the prison of Rennes at 5.30 a.m. Here carriages were in waiting, and the prisâ€" oner was driven to his destination by a circuitous route. AGAIN TO PRISON. The inbabitants of Renunes were apâ€" parently most unconcerned in regard to the iamous exile, a small regiment of newspaper correspondents being the only ones who showed unusual interest, Several decoy carriages were employed to mislead the newspaper men, but those stationed at the prison gates were enabled tocatch a fleeting glance oi the military prisoner as the horses dashed into the courtyard. After being formally transferred to the care of the governor of the prison, Dreyius was conveyed to a comfortable cell on th» second floor. where he anxâ€" iously awaited the arrival of his wife. Mme. Dreyfus will be allowed to see her bhusband three times a week for threeâ€"quarters of an hour, in( the preâ€" sence of a prison official. \WVhen Dreyfus was tol& during the voyage that a new courtâ€"martial await» ed him on his return to France, he reâ€" plied, "I have no illâ€"will towards anyâ€" body; I shall be glad to reâ€"enter the army, which I have never ceased â€"to Mme. Dreyfus, upon receiving the new s of the arrival of her husband, imâ€" mediately applied to the governor of the jail for an interview, which was immediately granted. . She was conâ€" ducted to cell No. 830, accompanied by Mme. Havet, where a most touching reunion took place between husband and wife. Upon leaving the prison the poor woman was in a state of comâ€" plete collapse, so great was the shock of the meeting. Dreyfus has aged greatly. His hair and beard are now white, and his body shrunken and stooped. He declared to his wife that he was entirely ignorant of the events which have transpired during the last two years. â€" Mme. Dreyfus was treated with the utmost courtesy by the jail officials. ; love. British Shtp Held Up in View of the Gan boat. A despatch from Vancouver, B. C., says:â€"The British ship Woon, Messrs. Banker and Co., was held by Chinese pirates on May 22 at Kamchuck, on the West river, who coolly emptied the cargo into junks lying alongside. Then the passengers, many of whom were British and Americans, had to give up $7,000 in cash. Three Chinese torpedo boats, placed on the river to prevent piracy, were anchored within 500 yards of the scene, but made no attempt to assist the merâ€" chantman. After the robbery the capâ€" tain of the Woon reversed her flag at the masthead, but the torpedo boats steamed by without paying any atâ€" tention to the signal of distress.

HUSBAND AND WIFE, THE TOUR OF PARE AND HOLDEN. Mard Experiences of the Patr of Thieve Who Wandered About With a Price on Their Heads. A despatch from Montreal says:â€" The story of Pare and Holden‘s exâ€" periences since breaking jail at Napâ€" anee, as might be expected, shows that the men underwent considerable hardâ€" ships in their wanderings, to evade recapture. On their way from Campâ€" bellton, N.B., in charge of Detective Greer, Pare talked a little of his reâ€" cent doings. It seems that in spite of some apâ€" parent illâ€"feeling between Pare and bis companion, while in Napanee, the two had a regular system of communiâ€" cation with each other. Pare made known to Holden his plans for the After leaving the jail a consultation took place as to which direction they should take, Holden wishing to strike west to get into the United States as quickly as possible, Pare wishing to go east towards Quebec, thinking by this route the better to escape detecâ€" tion. â€" The eastern route being decidâ€" ed upon, the first night and day after their escape they kept to the north side of the St. Lawrence, keeping unâ€" der cover as much as possible, and finally reached Coleau Junciion, where they crossed the St. Lawrence to Valâ€" leyfield. Following the south shore down, they crossed over again to Vaudreul, and, carefully picking their steps, they worked their way through the Province of Quebec into the State of Maine. TRAVELLED AS TRAMPS. They were several weeks accomâ€" plishing this part of their journey, subsisting on the way as tramps. In Maine the meon did not feel safe, and they kept to the woods as much as possible, until about two weeks ago, when they struck across to Nova Scoâ€" tii and landed near Halifax. _ Wanâ€" dering about for some days, they reâ€" traved their steps and struck St. John, N. B., a week ago last Sunday. From there they worked up the line of the Intercolonial to Campbellton, arriving there on Thursday in a box car, making from the car to a small hotel in the neighborhood. THE MAN WHO GAINED THE REâ€" WARD. It happened that the chief of police, an officer named Duncan, had receivâ€" ed one of the circulars sent out deâ€" scribing the two men. This officer noticed the arrival of the tramps and his â€" suspicions were aroused. He thereupon arrested them, but subseâ€" quently released them. Thinking the matter over again, and consulting the photographs, he summoned assistance, and speedily reâ€"arrested the pair. Pare took his arrest quietly, but Holden, who is a much more powerfully built man, made a fierce resistance, afterwards deciaring it was lucky bhe had no firearms, or somebody wou‘d have been killed. WThe party reached Montreal at six o‘clock Tuesday evening. Speaking of his recapture, after reaching Montreal. Pair said it seemed too bad that it shou!d end up in this way, but hs supâ€" posed there was no use repining, and they wou‘1 now have to make the best of the circumstances. Holden said he would never have been recaptured and would have got off scot free out of tha country by taking a sailing vessel, but Pare was suffering from a lame leg, and he did not wish to leave him in the lurch. The.men were carefu‘ly §uarded unâ€" til Inspector Greer‘s arrival. Owners May be Given Some Allowanee, as a Matter of Grace.
