Paris (By Cable).—The efforts of , Alfred Dreyfus to secure a judicial examination of his case have at‘last been crowned with success. After examining the dossier in the case submitted to him by General Andre, the minister of war. Minister ol Justice Valle has transmitted that document, together • writh the petition of Dreyfus, for a revision of bis sentence to M. Durand, the president of’a commission instituted by the Ministry o( Justice. This CMnmissiou will pronounce upon the admissibility oi the rtquest for a rev 1aion of sentence. Jvf. Dreyfus owes the favorable action taken to the careful consideration given the case by Minister Andre. whose_ conclusion are regarded as in the highest degree favorable to Dreyfus. since they determined the Minister of Jnstkc to refer the question ol a revision to a commission. Nothing has yet transpired -to indicate that General Andre has discovered documents of doubtful authenticity. or that there was maneuvering 00 the part of the ministry oi war daring the Dreyfus trial to conceal important facts, though assertions to this effect hajre been made. It is stated that M Gribelin, formerly principal keeper of the records of the headquarters’ staff, has made important revelations. The commission will receive the documents' next Wednesday.
