Continued from page H.

W. IdDofl retorted, Ihe defense Is
using its right with the utmost mod
eration.''
Colonel j ouaust-No, you are not.
beg You not to drown my voice when ]
am speaking. Your very tone is want
ing IL. moderation. Moreover, 1 consid-
er the question unimportant
There were prolonged lnurrlurs OF
assent and dissent among the audience
at this declaration by Colonel Jouaust
M. Labor said he was surprised that
General Gonse had included incorrect
asked Gonse who made up the secret
dossier
General Gonse-I composed one of the
secret dossiers by means of annexed
documents communicated to the min-
istry, but the minds of all the war Of
ficials were made up before they had
any cognizance of these documents.
NJ L.abori-Does General Gonse as
sumo responsibility for those secret
dossiers to July, 1898?
Consoles, had charge Of it.
Suppressed From the Dossier.
NJ Labori-How happens it, then,
that a telegram from the French am
bassador at Rome, sent by the foreign
office to the war office, referring to pay
ments to Esserhazy by an Italian
agent, was not added to the secret dos
sier?
Gonse-There were plenty of others
All were not Included, but only the
most important.
M. Labori-Was the information of
the French ambassador at Rome of
less Importance than the sarbled con-
versation of Painleve?
Colonel Jouaust-I will not put the
question.
NJ. Labori-Why was the information
against Dreyfus always included in
the doss;er and never any discriminating
Esterhazy?
Colonel Jouaust-I also refuse to put
that question.
M. Labori-Al1i right. ! think the
question itself fully answered the pur-
pose. r.
Commandant Cuignet, who made up
the secret dossier. replying to Colonel
Jouaust, explained that he omitted
everything emanating from foreigners
as interested and misleading to France.
Several documents of this kind had
been omitted, particularly one reciting
conversation between 4 foreign sover-
eign and a French attache, in which
the sovereign was represented as say
ing that what was occurring in France
was proof of the power of the Jews.
More Alleged Proofs.
That" added Commandment Cuignet,
might be regarded as against Drey-
fus, but nevertheless it was not in
cluded in the dossier.
M. Demange expressed surprise that
the document in question had not ap-
peared in the war office dossier.
NJ. Cuignet-It does not appear there
because it was received at the foreign
office.
NJ. Paleologue, intervening, said that
the foreign office only acted as an in
termediary in that matter.
NJ Labor commented in a surprised
way upon the fact that alleged fresh
proofs against Dreyfus were still
spoken of, and said that all proofs be
produced once for all.
NJ Layet. who is on the staff of the
Temps, testified that the Spy Guenee
informed him that the war office had
indisputable proof of the guilt of Drey-
fus. and had a snapshot photograph,
representing Dreyfus conversing with a
military attache at Brussels.
The Arrest of Henry.
After q brief recess of the courtmar-
tial. DIR. Peyrol deposed that he met M
Bertullus, judge of the court of casa
ton, after the arrest of Lieutenant
Colonel Henry, and that M. Bertullus
related to him the dramatic scene in
his office with Henry.
M. Bertullus was very jubilant over
Henry's arrest and said he was con-
WINGED that if Henry were detained
everything would be known in due
time.
NJ. Temps, a special commissary of
the railway police, deposed that he
photographed the bordereau by orders
vi al Co a I,n ri a.
nipulated the plate with a view to con-
cealing marks upon the document.
When the fac smile of the bocderau
was published Lieutenant Colonel
Picuuart ordered the witness to dis
cover who had supplied the photo
graphic copy.
While engaged in the investigation
of this matter Lieutenant Colonel Hen
ry, upon one occasion. approached the
witness and clearly evinced great IN
easiness at the successive revelations
in the Dreyfus affair. Lieutenant Col
onel Henry told, the witness that the
revelations could only have emanated
from an individual who had the docu-
ments in his hand. Henry, the witness
testified, added:
They can only emanate from cur
office, where only Picquart Lauth, Girl
belin or myself could have revealed
them. / am sure that neither Lauth,
Gribelin or myself have been SO indis-
Greet You would do we'll to discover
who is responsible"
Esterhazy's Suspicious Actions.
Replying to NJ Demange. NJ. Temps
said that he had only once mixed up
Esterhazy in connection with the re-
port Esterhazy had been seen at a
foreign agents residence which had
two exits. and had other suspicious re-
lations. Witness had found corrobora-
ton Of this.
Replying to NJ. Labori, NJ. Temps
further detailed Lieutenant Colonel
Henry's pressure upon him with a view
to having the communication. of the
bordereau to the Matin ascribed to
Lieutenant Colonel Picquart. Witness
did not know if the leakage at the war
office continued after Dreyfus left
Detective Hennion testified regarding
the assertion to the effect that Paul
mire, the valet of Colonel Schwartz
koppen. the German military attache,
had seen plans of fortresses signed by
Dreyfus on his masters table. NJ. Hen
MON furnished a typewriter report on
the subject showing that Paulmire
never saw or never said he had seen
such documents.
