Louis André
Louis André (28 March 1838, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Côte-d'Or – 18 March 1913) was France's Minister of War from 1900 until 1904. Loyal to the laïque Third Republic, he was anti-Catholic, militantly anticlerical, a Freemason〔(Masonic references in the works of Charles Williams ) Grand Lodge of British Columbia and Yukon, accessed Oct. 28, 2008〕 and was implicated in the Affaire Des Fiches, a scandal in which he received reports from Masonic groups on which army officers were practicing Catholics for the purpose of denying their promotions.〔 (footnote 26) cites : 〕
==Affair des Fiches==
According to Piers Paul Read, "The information, as it came in, was entered on cards or ''fiches''. These would be marked either ''Corinth'' or ''Carthage'' -- the Corinthians being the sheep who should be promoted and the Carthaginians, the goats who should be held back. An officer reported to be 'perfect in all respects; excellent opinions,' would be marked as a Corinthian: another who, 'though a good officer, well reported on, takes no part in politics,' would nonetheless be designated a Carthaginian because he, 'went to Mass with his family,' and sent his six children to Catholic schools. A bachelor officer who went to Mass was by definition of a reactionary disposition. Officers loyal to the republican ideals were encouraged to report the opinions voiced by their colleagues in the mess."〔 Piers Paul Read, ''The Dreyfus Affair: The Scandal that Tore France in Two'', Bloomsbury Press, 2012. page 339.〕
In 1904, Jean Bidegain, the assistant Secretary of Grand Orient de France, secretly sold a selection of the ''Fiches'' to Gabriel Syveton of the Ligue de la Patrie Francaise for 40,000 francs. The resulting scandal led directly to the resignation of French Prime Minister Emile Combes.〔 Read (2012), pages 339-340.〕
