this company they Will believe that l have been
arrested Bertulus took Henry's arm. saying:
My dear friend. I will you to the
end OF the gallery Bertulus also said. in
speaking OF Esterhazy on the same occasion:
He may be a scamp and a swindler. but he is
not n traitor Junck will bear witness to this.
He and Henry Immediately reported to Gonse
and then to the hospital. I ask the court to
hear NJ. Cavaignac. Gen. Gonse. Junck and
Tezenas on this subject"
Gen. Roget next repeated his previous de-
positions bearing upon Esterhazy. whom he
now suspects Of being the agent Of a foreign
syndicate. He closes his deposition with a
characteristic attack upon NJ. Cordier. who
offered his services to Matthew Dreyfus to
prove that Dreyfus was innocent. Cordier's
letter making this offer fell into the hands Of
the War ONCE. Gen. Roget was %astounded at
the offer made by Cordier. who is an anti
Semitist. and has often said that Dreyfus
should have a dozen bullets put into his body.
The deposition OF Cordier. Roget says. is full
of errors and untruths. Henry only fell out
with Plcquart when the latter tried to replace
Dreyfus in the staff Office by the appointment
OF Esterhazy. Cordier did not know exactly
what passed in the Intelligence Department.
and his evidence in regard to the "Canaille"
letter is unintelligible Evidently his memory
misleads him into contounding the two docu-
ments containing the references to Gen.
Roget said he would not insinuate. but he be-
lieved that Cordier vas angry because he did
not succeed In replacing Col. Sandherr as the
chief OF the Information Department and be-
came embittered.
Gen. Roget finally paid his respects to NJ. De-
velle. who was Foreign Minister in 1892 and
deposed before the Court OF Cessation. He as
serted. in refutation OF NJ. Develle's testimony.
that the organization OF the Information De-
partment was perfect in Col. Sandherr's time
and was only disorganized by the Picquart-
Henry syndicate. Gen. Roget professed to
have no knowledge that the ID" document
was seen by NJ. Develle in 1893.
The S~overnment's prosecution OF the Figaro
for its publication Of the testimony in the Drey-
fus case taken before the Court Of Cessation
includes NJ. de Rodays. the editor.
The Rdppel says that a second officer who
sat on the Dreyfus court-martial has written to
the Minister OF War for permission to testify
betorethe Court Of Cessation as to the manner
In which the prisoners conviction was secured.

MIR. ANDREWS A SUCCESSFUL r1NANCTER.
Wallace c. Andrews was a native of Payne's
Corners. near Youngstown. o.. where he was
born in 1883. He began life as a farmer, but
afterward, with his brothers. became very sue
cessful IN developing, coal and iron industries
I'm the Mahoning Valley. In connection with
the coal trade they became Interested in sever
al railroads in that section, among them the
Hooking Valley road. which included extensive
coal tracts.
After amassing n fortune. Mr.. Andrews came
to this city in 1878 to become President and
manager Of the New York Steam Company:
He also became Interested IN the STANDARD on
Company and the Standard Gaslight Company.
OF which he was for some time the President, and
at the time Of his death was the largest stock
holder. His connection with the latter COM
pany in 1890 brought Mr.. Andrews into prom
inence before a committee Of the Senate
appointed to investigate the causes of sub
way explosions. In the GLOWING year u
new Board of Directors of the, com
pany accused him OF. issuing stock ille-
gally and through Judge McAdam of the
Superior Court secured an Injunction restrain
ing him from disposing Of certain stock which
he held. The trouble was finally settled
amicably. As President of the New York
Steam Company Mr.. Andrews got into a fight
with the city authorities in 1894 because Of
the Use of soft coal by the company. A warrant
was at one time issued for his arrest. but was
never served.
Mr.. Andrews was an uncle Of Mrs. Edith An
drews Logan. the wife OF Major John A, Logan
OF Youngstown.

The Cologne Gazette Scores tho British
Ffrebrand Press for Interfering.
Special Gable Despdtch to THE Sun.
BERLIN. April 1.-THE Cologne Gazette scores
the - British firebrand press" for attempting
to put a spoke In the wheel Of the matter Of the
entente OF the three powers In the Samoan a-
fair. The Gazette lays stress on the fact that
the statement which President Mckinley
caused to be made in Berlin regarding Admiral
kautz's action was not taken by the German
Government as an apology made by the United
States. but rather as an earnest OF the inten-
ton Of the Washington Government not to
abandon the bedrock Of the Samoan treaty.
1t was never known in Berlin. the Gazette
says. that complaint had been made on the
part Of the United States that the Presidents
statement had been misunderstood.
Tn British are foisting a tuteiage upon the
Americans which the latter do not stand in
need Of" says the Gazette. The Americans
are strong enough to look after their own in
terests."

Basque Provinces Resumed.
Special Gable Despatch to THE Sun.
MADRID. April THE War Office has ordered
the resumption Of the anti-Carlist military
operations in the Basque provin ces.
The precautions taken by the Government
against the Carlists are the outcome OF con-
ferences between Gen. Polavieja. Minister OF
War. and the commanders Of army divisions
in Catalonia. Arragon and the Basque Prov
inces. The police will cooperate with tho
troops.
The Government gravely and emphatically
contradicts the the stories Of Carlist agitation
and declares It is confident that nothing will
happen. but the general belief is that the I'M
p~drcidl is accurate when 1t says that the Carl
lists are engaged in schemes which go beyond
legal agitation.
Weyler's organ. Ell Ndciondl. continues its
