DREYFUS DRIVEN TO RESIGN.
ma BOYCOTTED BY HIS BROTHER OFFICERS. PARIS, September 25. Major Alfred Dreyfus has sent m his papers, and is no longer m the French Army/ Major Dreyfus' health has been bad for some time, but the real reason for his retirement is the fact that, m spite of his acquittal by the highest court m France, his brother officers refused to have anything to do with him, and made his life a burden. At first Major Dreyfus absolutely refused to notice the moral quarantine m which he was placed, but eventually it 'told upon him. His friends M. Joseph Reina.ch and General Picquart were both of them certain that it was best for many reasons that the Major should send m his papers, but they have had the greatest difficulty m persuading him to do so. » It is an open secret that he would have continued to refuse had not his wife feared that his health would break down altogether, and joined her persuasion to that of M. Reinach and the Major's other friends.
