THE DREYFUS CASE.
More Testimony Being Published in Favor
OF the Prisoner.

OF the Prisoner.
PARIS, April 13.-The Clair to-day pub
fishes the disposition made by NJ. Ira
rieux, former minister of justice in the
R.bot cabinet, before the court of cassa-
ton in its inquiry into the Dreyfus case.
NJ. Trarieux said that Count Tornielli-
Brusati de Vergano, the Italian ambas
sador to France, declared to him in March,
1885, that the Italian secret information
bureau never had any relations with Drey-
fus and that the publication of the Bor-
dereau and other documents revealed to
the Italian and German attaches that
Dreyfus was the victim of an error and
that the Bordereau was communicated by
another officer
Col. Schwartzkoppen, the former military
attache of the German embassy at Paris,
wrote to Col. Panizzardi, the Italian mil
itary attache at Paris, that he was not
acquainted with Dreyfus, and attributed
the bordereau to Maj. Count Esterhazy
The Italian count said Esterhazy went to
Col. Swartzkoppen in August, 1897, and
asked for protection, and on this being re-
fused, he threatened to commit suicide.
Finally the Italian minister said he was
convinced, after interviews with M. Han
otaux, the then minister of foreign af-
fairs, that the communication of Lieut..
Col. Henrys forgery in the lola trial was
made without the knowledge of the gov
eminent. He also said that Esterhazy
had relations solely with Col. Schwartzkop-
pen, who communicated to Col. Pan.zzar-
di the documents which were interesting
to Italy.
