' Fair Trial for Dreyfus Small Part of the Task Before it. a m Problem Presented by Ins ubordination .in the Highest Banks of the Army. Paris,. June 24. France wiilr." easily command the attention" of the!" world during the crisis which the next few tfays should evolve. The srovernmpnt which has Just assumed office Is of a composition which excite3 both alarm and hope alarm because the peril is so gTeat that a cabinet designed "simply to save the republic was considered necessary, with the hope that the' stem policy which has been adopted will prove adequate. - . The Temps describes the Waldeck Rousseau cabinet as of a character never before known of except at the end of a war, the outbreak of an insur rection or on the eve of a coup d'etat. Monday's session of the , chamber of deputies - will solve 'the problem fas to the life of the cabinet. - If the ministry is overthrown there remansr only one man whom Frenchmen regard as. pos sessing; sufficient strength " and abflity to cope with the situation: -He is M. Constans, who is now in Constantinople. A fair, safe trial f, Dreyfus is small -part of the task of the cabinet. , Sup pression and punishment of Insubordin ation in the higher ranks of the army must come first. The real, crisis will come when dealing with this problem. The test of the new government will come when it attempts to execute it undoubted intension to remove General Zurlfnden fronj the military governor ship of Paris. He more than any oth er man ranks as the figure head of mil itarism in France at present.. There could lae no better man calculated to deal with Zurlinden - than the veteran who has juslt taken the war portfolio In the cabinet. - TRIAL FOR ARSON.
