THE zoLA TRIAL.
Another Day Of French Frotn and Fur

Another Day of French Froth and Fury.
Paris, Feb. 12.-There We're the, usual
crowds, heated discussions and personal
alterations at the sixth day of the trial
of NJ. Zola. The force of military
around the court house was increased
to four companies, The testimony Of
Jaures, a socialist deputy, caused tu-
multi, in which cheers and grcans were
mingled. M! Laborie's demand for the
production of the famous secret papers
was denied. The court adjourned to
Monday, 1t is claimed by Zolaists that
today's evidence win result in a revis-
ion of the Dreyfus case.
In view of the possibility of DEM
onstration, three and a half squadrons
of cavalry were stationed in the Rue
Druot, the Marie Celestin and the Chat
eau D'Eay barracks.
Upon arriving at his residence, NJ
Zola was mobbed by a crowd, who as
sailed him with insulting and abusive
epithets; but the police quickly dis
persed the crowd The latest move Of
the anti-Zola agitators is signalling
with whistle which quickly brings to-
gether a mob of professional rowdies
when Zola is near 1t is reported that
when the excitement shall have abated
the sentence of Dreyfus will be submit
ted to the supreme court Of Cessation,
the jurisdiction of which extends to
court martial when martial law has not
been proclaimed The secret document,
the report says, will be submitted to
these law lords in Camera.
The question of M. Zola's personal
safety is seriously exercising his
friends who assert that several motor
ious criminals have been seen towering
about the court building throughout the
week. 1t is suggested that they have
been lavishly bribed to injIre M. zola
seriously, even if they do not kill him,
The grave feature of the situation is
the incursion of mob law inside and out
side the Palais de Justice. Every dwell
ing of the Rothschilds is guarded as If
it were a powder magazine. 1t is said
that the trial will be concluded on
Thursday next. 1t appears that there

hibitions, each of three rounds. between
well known local boxers. They were all
friendly bouts, and no one had any idea
of making any of them finish fights. No
