lola and Trarieux yesterday NJ. Trari-
eux, ex-minister of justice, testified
that he had had nothing to do with the
Dreyfus affair. The presiding Judge
refused to allow Commandant Forni-
zetti and others to be questioned re-
garding Dreyfus, and Major Patty du
Clam refused to answer questions on
the ground of professional secrecy"
General Gonse and Colonel Henry gave
explanations of the indiscretions of
Colonel Picquart, who had knowledge
of some of the secret papers of the war
office. Genera Pellieux, on the wit
ness stand, said 1t was time the truth
became known. He then proceeded to
relate the story of the Esterhazy in
quiry, and said that M. Matthew Drey-
fus and NJ. Scheurer- Kestner both adj
mitted they could not prove the charges
against Major Esterhazy. Pellieux

vulging an espionage affair to an out
slider" General Pellieux was about to

siding judge gently i%nterposed his usual
veto, and the minister did not insist.
NJ. Dupuy, the former premier, was
then called, and M. Laborie began to

delivered to him. These ranged from $250 to $500. To the best of his recol- lection these amounts were for his salary. But there were ensures in these same entries, the sharp edge of knife having removed from the paper the cold records of transactions that some one wished to hide from the eyes of the world. The witness could not or would not explain why these era sures had been made, nor what record had been thus removed. Neither did he know when they had been made and he even went so far as to say that he was sorry for it; and then Attorney Cope induced him to acknowledge that the ensures must have been recently made. He stated that while he has full access to the books of his firm and occasionally makes settlements with his partner, he is sadly ignorant of the meaning of a great many entries.
 A. H. Cole, bookkeeper for the S. D. Slade Lumber Company, was called and his attention directed to the erasures in the books of the other concern, in which he had made few entries, but he knew nothing, he said, of the ob- Alterations.
 The next witness was J. J. Keegan clerk of the Board of Harbor Commis- sioners. He told of a conversation in the board rooms between Attorney Stratton and the Commissioners rela- tive to proposition to compromise the case of the Pacific Pine Lumber Con- pany against the board. The former sought to restrain the board from pay ing to the Slade Lumber Company the sum of $12,000 Keegan stated that on that occasion Attorney Stratton told the board that Jordan and Herrick of the Pacific Pine Lumber Company had told him that they would like to con- promise the suit, and proposed that if the board give them 75 per cent of the lumber trade, all of the shingle and all of the pile trade for two years they would abandon the suit. MT. Stratton at once informed the board of the prop ositicn and advised against the com promise.
 MT. Keegan was questioned as to the monthly income of the Harbor Com mission, which he said was about $55,-

work and to have taken the chances of an injunction, being confident that he could have beaten it:
 The court overruled the objection and the witness resumed, saying: T was informed that MT. Dundon and MT. Rood had been up to see MT. Stratton, and told him that. they would enJoin the Paraffine Paint Company if they were awarded the contract from going ahead with the work. I was informed by an official connected with the State Board Of Harbor Commissioners.
 The witness stated that there were others desirous of bidding on the pile preserving work, but they were shut out for the same reasons-fear of be- ing enjoined. Several of these had good methods.
 The matter of the specification was taken up to show how the board had fenced off the outsiders, and on this MT. Irving said:
 The specifications were to my mind very unfair, and I so informed Major Harney and MT. Colnon. told them that there were provisions put in those speci- fications that had never occurred before and that were all together unjust. In- stead of covering a years work plus Green-street wharf, they were simply made for Green-street wharf; and while for a years work and Green-street wharf 1t would have been paying proposition for us to have set up creoSoting plant for a small job like that it would not have been.
 I, moreover. in that conversation, called their attention to the fact that the patent
