CAPTAIN DREYFUs.
THE PRISONER HAS ANOTHER
QUIET DAY.
Receives Visits From HfS wife,
Brother and Maitre Labox1,
His Counsel.

RENNES, July O.--FOr Captain Dr6y-
fus to-day passed off much as yester-
day. Nine. Dreyfus. Matthew Dreyfus,
his brother and Maitre Labori, his
counsel, visited the prisoner, but other
wise no special incident occurred AS
an illustration of the indifference of
the population, it is a worthy note
that the words ''Vive Dreyfus'' chalked
upon a wall in corner Of the town
remains absolutely undisturbed Many,
however, predict trouble on the ma
tional fete day, when review of the
garrison will be held. The anti-Drey-
fusites, it is feared, will attempt to
draw the troops into demonstration.
Nine. Dreyfus, accompanied by her
parents, drove to the prison in a car
riage this afternoon. Her parents We're
not admitted, but she remained with
her husband for an hour. On leaving,
she showed for the first time signs of
distress. Her eyes We're swollen and
red, as though she had been weeping
bitterly. She is still in deep mourning,
and is determined to remain so until
her husband regains his liberty.
A somewhat larger crowd than usual
watched her arrival and departure and
again displayed utter lack of manner 8
and consideration for her terrible posi-
ton, gathering around her, rudely STAR
ing her in the face and pressing one
another aside in their eagerness not
to lose a single detail of her inward
agony which might be reflected in her
countenance. Her visible distress to-
day was feast for those ghouls, who,
however. were speedily dispersed by a

barred the two streets leading to the
portal of the prison.
Just opposite the prison and over
looking the window Of the cell of Cap
tain Dreyfus and the courtyard is a
tannery. This has been a favorite place
of vantage for number of photo
graphers, who have taken snap shots
of every arrival and departure and as
often as possible of the Incidents oc-
| curing inside the prison yard. To-day
the police affixed a notice over the
tannery entrance, prohibiting the entry
thereof of any one except on business
connected with the tannery This
measure has aroused considerable COM
ment, but the owner of the tannery will
/ probably find it prudent not to ignore
the notice.
| Maitre Labor. Matthew Dreyfus and
Nine. Dreyfus returned to Paris this
l.evening.
| There were interesting developments
to-day in the -Pressens affair.
General Julliard, commanding the gar
rison, addressed the troops to-day on
the departure of Colonel Saxce to the
up the new command to which he was
transferred as a disciplinary measure,
by the Minister of War, General the
Marquis de Gallifet. General Juillard
paid Colonel Saxce a high tribute for
his brilliant qualities, and declared
| that he enjoyed the full confidence of
his chiefs. Thus General Juillard
ranged himself on the side of Colonel
Saxce against the Minister of War,
who is not likely to allow the matter
to pass in silence. The result is that
General Julliard will be transferred to
another brigade, and another General
will replace him.
The name of Colonel Saxce was men
toned as the probable President of the
eourt-martial which is to try Dreyfus.
NJ. De Pressens, editor of the Temps"
Of Paris. criticised the possibility of
his appointment, on the ground that
the Colonel had already pronounced
himself against Dreyfus. Colonel
Saxce then had an order of the day
read to the regiment in which he
classes M. Pressens as IAN infamous
scoundrel." For this he was transferred
to another regiment
