Ignored n Subpoena for the Dreyfus Trial
and Now Demands "A Duplicate.
Specinl CdbI, Deipdtch 10 THE Sun.
PARIS July 17-EX-Judge Beaurepaire has
apparently been haunted with a fear Of prac-
teal jokers since he was lately hoaxed by
Karl" who offered to furnish him with in
dsputable proof Of the guilt of Dreyfus. and
he has fallen victim to his own suspicious.
1t transpires that when he received a formal
subpoena to appear before the court at Rennes
he believed that 1t was another trick, and he
accordingly ignored the summons The result
Is that unless the President OF the court re-
peats the subpoena he will not be able to tes-
tify at the court martial. He has written to
Col. Jouaust, the President. asking for dupli-
cate subpoena.
In an interview the ex-JudGe admitted that
the subpoena he had received was duly
stamped but declared that his enemies were
capable Of anything. He added that II Col.
Jouaust did not comply with his request for
duplicate it would be because he wished to
suppress his evidence

sent back to Mrs. Rogers by the boy.
Mrs. Alders. who was cashier for her hus-
band when they were married. and who won
his heart, he says. by her shrewd business
sense. told the boy to come back for the change
in an hour. She sent a clerk to follow him.
