CAPTAIN
Accused Spy is Attacked
Before the President and
Cabinet of France by a
Rabid Hater of Jews.
(By Francis WnltinUm Dnwson, miinii

rnitt'tl I'rosw Asosciation, 1903.)
PARIS, .Tunc 4. M. Oregon, mili
tiny nlilor of Ln Oaulnia, who hail been
standing by my aide for several minutes
today, suddenly quitted the crowd .of
newspaper men with who I was, walked
directly up to Major Alfred Dreyfus
nnd fired dpoint blank at him twice
with a revolver.
Both balls took effect in Iho right
nrm of the man whose fame spread
around tin- world when he was eiiled
for a treason charge afterward dis
proved. Major Jireyfns, though surprised by
the sudden attack, uttered uo cry : or
exelumjition of any kind. '
Gregori darted into the crowd in .ari
attempt to make a hasty escape, but M.
Moucpiin, head of the municipal police,
was near nt hand and pounced upon the
fleeing editor. The officer quickly sub
dued the prisoner, took Ms pistol nnd
turned him over to a gendarme who hur
ried him away to jail.- '
Dreyfus' Presence of Mind.
The sensational affair took piano near
the close of the exercises in celebration
of the transfer of the remains of Emilo
Zola, tho famous novelist and defondor
of J)rcyfus, from Montmartrc cemetery
to the pantheon, the French hall of
fame. Tremendous crowds were pres
ent and trouble had been feared in ad
vance because of thu feeling revived
by the remembrance of the Dreyfus
ease by which Fiance was torn nsun
der. After tho shooting Dreyfus displayed
the most romarkable presence of mind.
He begged the people about him to be
quiet and not let it become known that
it happened. Ho then walked unassist
ed to an automobile, which ho entered
nnd was rushed away to his home. After
an examination, the surgeons announced
that Dreyfus1 injuries are not necessa
rily serious.
Gregori stood within three feet of
President Fnllieres. As a patriotic song
was being sung, Fnllieres, closely fol
lowed by Dreyfus and Minister Don
mergue, started down the steps to re
view the parade.
As they passed the press table Greg
ori arose with the others, and as Drey
fus approached, he exclaimed:
Asasilant Badly Beaten.
Thereupon he stepped up to Dreyfus
und fired. The coolness of Dreyfus
nnd the president alone fould have
snved li disastrous scene. All the offi
cials deserve great credit, including
(Tnited Slates Ambassador White, who
ealtuly walked on nnd reviewed the pa
rade, showing no signs that he know
anything hail happened, though he was
near by when the shots wero fired,
It was n few minutes before the gen
eral crowd learned of the attack on
Dreyfus; then there was wild excite
ment. A mob set out to overtake the
gendarmes in charge of Gregori. A
fight followed, in which Oregon sus
tained several slight cuts from the sa
bers in the hands of the gendarmes. The
crowd fell upon Gregori with great vio
lence in spite of the efforts of the offi
cers, and he was badly beaten before
he reached the police station.
Hated Dreyfus Bitterly.
As military editor of his journal.
Gregori was brought in close touch with
all the affairs of the army and followed
the Dreyfus case carefully from the be
ginning to the end. His sympathies
were all ngainst Drevfus anil his hatred
was particularly strong against Zola for
his defense of the soldier. He consid
ered the transfer of Zola's body fo the
Pantheon to be a sacrilege and had open
ly denounced the government officials
for permitting it. He was looked upon
ns being almost fanatical in his tactics.
He printed a bitter article yrsterday in
which he charged that the Pantheon was
being turned into a sewer by putting
tho-body of Zola there.
The exercises began nt 0:.V o'clock
this morning. After the singing of the
Marseillaise. Minister Doumergne de
livered an address in which he praised
Zola and eulogized him as one of the
great thinkers of France. He lauded
his literary and political career and
