PARIS, August 12,
Fiften members of the League of Patriots including Marcel and Habert, who were recently tried for treason, have been arrested at Rennes, on the eve of a fresh attempt to overturn the French Republic.
M. Deroulede and two members of
the Patriots' League have been arrested on a charge of conspiracy. M. Guerin, President of the anti-Semite party, who is also wanted, has barricaded himself in his residence, and resists all attempts to arrest him. He is provided with three weeks' food supply. M. Andre' Buffet, representative of the Duke of Orleans in Paris, was arrested on the Belgian frontier on a charge of being implicated in Deroulede's conspiracy against the Republic. During M. Zola's trial in July,
189S, the Government secured cvi-
dence of his plots, old and new, also that the Orleanists attempted an un-
successful coup at the moment of Faure's funeral.
