presumptions of his innocence were
necessary before the case could be
taken up by the court of cessation. To-
day it is for the public prosecutor to
prove his guilt. Let no one blame u.s.
therefore, if we have not proved the
innocence of our client. The task was
not incumbent upon us. 1t is for the
government commissioner to show that
he is guilty of the abominable crime
imputed to him.
NJ. Demange then protested against
the suggestion that it had been at
tempted to put Esterhazy on trial, ex-
planning that all the defense desired
was that the innocence of Dreyfus
should appear, dazzling and complete.
and that the courtmartial should pro-
claim it.
Counsel was satisfied that the judges
of 1894 were honest, like the present
judges. But if the former had seen Es-
terhazy's handwriting they would have
pronounced different verdict.
Counsel then entered into details,
dealing with the information collected
regarding the prisoner in 1894. He said:
His Protsstations of Innocence.
1.-THE only real information is that
found in the cries from his SOUL Even
before his conviction his first cry was:
I will not take my life, because 1 am
innocent"

cence, and his touching letters to his
family, exclaiming:
I'm them you see his soul, which
speaks Alone in his tomb he COM
munes with himself. He cherished the
hope of seeing his innocence acknow--
edged"
Among the letters of Dreyfus read by
M. Demange was one in which, after
asserting his innocence, and declaring
he always served the tricolor with de-
votion and honor. the prisoner COM
planned that he was treated on Devils
island like an ordinary convict. 1t con-
cluded with the words: Il wish to

BRITISH TROOPS ACTIVE.
Engaged In Maneuvers Over the
Hilly Country In Natal.

London, Sept. ga special dispatch
received here today from Ladysmith,
Natal, says the British troops there
are actively engaged in maneuvers over
the hilly country, subsequent to. pa
rade of the force. Continuing, the dis
patch says:
with the transportation and equip
ment, the finest ever seen in South
Africa, and the health of the men eX-
cellent, everything is ready for war.
,All the advices confirm the presence
of a large number of armed Beers on
the border. They are described as be-
ing bellicose, and it is rumored they
have completed arrangements to poison
all pools and springs that might supply
the invading forces with water. I'm
rest is reported among the Natal ma
tives, and this, it is suspected, is due
to Boer influences"

ARE EAGER TO FIGHT.
Australians Will Tender Services to
England In Case of War.


Vancouver, B. c., Sept According
to the statements of officers of the
steamer Warrimoo, which arrived to-
night, militiamen in all Australia are
eager to fight for England in the
Transvaal. The governor of New South
Wales informed the colonial office that
some 1850 officers, commissioned
officers and men of the defense forces
of New South Wales had volunteered
their services if wanted for South
Africa. The following telegram in reply
was received from Mr.. Chamberlain:
Her majestys government highly
appreciates the loyal and patriotic
spirit shown by those who have offered
their services. The proposal has been
placed on record at the war office. Full
consideration will be given to the offer
should necessity arise for reinforce
ments of troops now in South Africa"

Brought to an End.

Philadelphia, Sept. S.-The thirty
third encampment of the Grand Army

ternoon, when naval review was held

Beers ON THE BORDER.
Uneasiness Regarding Probable At
titude of Transyaal Dutch,

London, Sept. S.-The Times, in its
second edition today, published dis
patch from Mafeking. which said:
Colonel Baden-Powell will review
the troops at Ramathiabama tomorrow.
Large numbers of Beers are moving
about the border near there. There is
uneasiness over the number of Trans
vaal Dutch here. 1t is feared they
might join the invaders in case of a
raid"
The correspondent of the Times at
New Castle, Natal, says: There would

CAST LOT WITH MILNER.
Action of Afrikander Leaders Causes
Irritation to the Beers.

Irritation to the Beers.
London, Sept. S.-The Cape Town
correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
There is no doubt that Mr. Schreiner
(the Cape premier) and the Afrikan-
ders' leaders have thrown in their lot
with Sir Alfred Miner, and this fact
excites the irritation displayed in the
volksraad debate on the interpella-
lions. 1t is reported from Bloemfontein
that a ballot will be taken there
throughout the Orange Free State to
decide whether the government shall
remain neutral or shall assist the
Transvaal.
According to dispatch to the Daily
Mail from Brussels, DR.. w. J. Leydes,
the plenipotentiary of the South Afri-
can Republic to the European govern
ments, does not believe there will be
war between Great Britain and the
Transvaal, but the Beers will fight to
the end, he says, if an attempt is made
on their independence.

william j. Bryan, the leading Demo-
craft of America, will be the guest of
his Utah friends this evening. From a
platform at the south front OF the Salt
Palace he will address the people on
the issues that are now uppermost in
the minds of all lovers of liberty and
justice. This is the simple programme
that is attracting to the city people
from all parts of Utah, as well as many
from neighboring states.
Mr.. Bryan and party. according to
the understanding last night, viii reach
the city from Ogden on a special train
on the Oregon Short Line that is sched-
uled to reach Salt Lake not later than
1880. There the party will be met by
the reception committee, headed by
Christensen's band. and escorted to the
salt Palace. After MIR. Bryan's address,
which, so far as is now known, will be
the only one of the evening, a public
reception will be rendered to Mr.. and
Mrs Bryan in the auditorium of the
Salt Palace.
A feature of the evenings programme
will be the ride of the honored guest
from the depot to the Salt Palace, and,
after the reception, to the Knutsford
hotel on train OF brilliantly lighted
trolley cars. The entire reception COM
mittee and their ladies and the band
are to meet at the Knutsford hotel at
z o'clock. There the cars will be board
ed and the ride made to the depot. On
the arrival OF Mr.. Bryan and his party,
they will be taken aboard and escorted
in this way through the principal
streets OF the city to the Salt Palace
grounds, passing under the brilliantly
lighted arch on Main street on the
way. If by any chance this plan should
fail for lack of street cars, the receo-
ton committee will meet at the Knuts-
ford just the same, and take carriages
there for the depot.
