fact that Gen. de Boisdeffre gave or

clared closed, for the dossier contain

expressed surprise afterwards to find
that his orders had not been executed
Thus far the war Office has not been
represented in the court proceedings

secret dossier being produced, especial

doubtful-M. Dupuy succeeds in form

writing. Formerly only copies OF his
letters were transmitted, and the new
