AMPLlF1ED HIS INDICTMENT
of Major Esterhazy saying that one
new fact from legal point Of view
was the discovery that the Bordereau
was written upon precisely the same
paper as that used by Major Ester ha-
zey. The judges in 1894 did not know
this, and M. de Beaupre declared that

had directly ascribed the authorship OF
the bordereau to Major Esterhazy pro-
duced a condition of stupefactlon
among members of the League OF Pa
triots in the precincts of the court.
