municated to the court. the hearing Of
the case was adjourned until to-mor-
row.
Tn belief is general tonight that the
court OF cessation will pronounce
neither for revision nor annullment of
the decision in the Dreyfus case. as
either course would entail awkward
consequences. To avoid these. IL is ex-
pected the court will decide as to the
affair now present that there has been
no treason and that therefore the con-
demnation pronounced upon Dreyfus by
the court martial cannot be upheld.
The Courier Du Soir saws that the
before the court OF cessation as to the
part played by some members of the
general stan have produced a strong
effect in military circles and are likely
to result In a reaction tending to put
an end to the antagonism between the
civil and the military authorities.
The sensation of NJ. Bard's report was
the shorthand notes OF the examination
Of the late Colonel Henry by NJ. Godfrey
Cavaignac. then minister of war. after
Henry's forgery had been discovered.
These notes showed that the confession
Of forgery was only obtained with the
utmost difficulty. Henry stoutly deny
ing and then prevaricating to the effect
that he had only added one phrase to
the genuine letter and then. when drtv-

acted for the country's good.
The drift of NJ. Bard's conclusion was
that Comte Esterhazy was the real cul-
prit. but his condemnation would mean
the ruin of the intelligence department.
NJ. Bard dwelt severely on the with
holding OF the secret dossier from Drey-
fus himself. as the presenting OF the
documents to Dreyfus could not have
compromised the national interests, and
said the course adopted was in fragrant
violation Of the rights Of French prison.

Although the meetings so far are ia

sumed that there will be any real clear

as though an attempt Is being made to
stifie the real truth by liberating Drey-
fus without a new trial

Some such scheme as this has been ope-

have attracted the attention Of specula-

So far as any proposition to buy or ac-
quire Samana bay as q United States
