IN MEMORIAM.
Hibernians Pay High Trib-
ute to the Late Father
Scannell.

The committee appointed at the I'M
ion meeting of Worcester Hibernians
last Monday evening to draft resolu-
lions in memoriam of Rev. Denis Scan
nell, met in Hibernian hall last evening
and presented the following:
Whereas, it was with deep sorrow
that the members of the Ancient Order
of Hibernians of the city of Worcester
learned that it had pleased our provi-
dent Father to remove from our midst
our esteemed friend, the Rev. Denis
.Scannell, whose years of acquaintance
and friendship had highly endeared
to us his manly and noble qualities.
And whereas, by his removal, it is
worthy that we recognize the deep loss
and feel the early demise of one so
universally loved in this community.
And, whereas, the church has lost a
loyal, Jealous and devoted son, the city
of Worcester a true and patriotic citi-
zen, his native land a cheerful bene-
factor, his associates a faithful and
worthy companion, our organization a
wise and kind counselor, be it resolved:
That it is most fitting that we, the
united divisions of the A. o. H. of Wor-
cester, in unicn meeting assembled,
place on our records our deep apprecia-
ton Of our late friend, his exalted
sense of duty, his self-sacrificing spir-
it, his kind and sympathetic nature, his
boundless generosity and charity, pre-
eminently displaying the noble prinei-
pies of our order; and be it
Resolved, that by his death our order
has sustained serious loss, and every
member is bereft of a true, generous
and loyal friend; also
Resolved, that these resolutions be in
scribed on the records of our society
as a lasting memorial of his noble work
and copy be sent to the papers of the
city.

DREYFUS HAS A DAY.
Five of the Seven Witnesses Were In His
Favor ertillons System Would Prove
That the Moon is Made of Cheese
-Du Patty de CLAIMS De-
position to Be Taken.

Rennes, Aug. 2S.-The balance of the
evidence at the Dreyfus court-martial,
today, for change, was in favor of
Dreyfus. Five witnesses were for him,
and two against him. The most inter.
esting testimony was that of Chief
Handwriting Expert Charavay, who
had come to declare that he had
changed entirely his opinion, which, in
1894, was against, and now is in favor
of Dreyfus, who he today affirmed, was
not the author of the bordereau.
His candid confession of error was
received with murmurs of satisfaction
in court, which became discreet APP
plause in spite of Col Jouausts patent
disapproval when he solemnly added:
Il declare here, on my soul and con-
science, that the bordereau was written
by Esterhazy."
The most important incident, how
ever, was Col. Jouaust's acquiescence
in Maj. Carrieres request that roga-
tory commission be instructed to take
Col. Du Patty de CLAIMS deposition. The
initiative came purely from the gov
eminent commissary, Maitres Labori
anu lCGllldilSG idNluS no IdllH III Sucu a
measure, because it allows Du Patty de
Clam to escape s-examination
which is the only thing worth having
under the present circumstances. Du
Patty de Clam being d witness for the
prosecution, Maj. Carriere will simply
prepare list of questions which an ex-
aiming magistrate will put to him at
his residence, and nobody supposes that
the witness will be very much embar-
raised by the interrogatories.
Today the central figure in the court
yard, which is the meeting place for all
the leading persorageS of the trial dur
ing the suspension Of the sessions, was
Capt. Freystaetter, who was the sub
ject of many flattering remarks upon
his manly and solderlike bearing.
Indeed, the interest in him was so
great that some persons waited all
in order to obtain standing room in the
rear part of the court room, in the hope
of seeing him at today's sitting, an i'm
preston having gone abroad that he
might be recalled.
His modest and frank manner in
spired admiration in all except the gen
erals and other military witnesses for
the prosecution, who seemed afraid of
him and scowled in his direction from
the. other side of the court yard.
Capt. Freystaetter will not remain
here until the end of the trial, but will
leave Repnes in few days.
M. De Freycinet, former minister of
war, arrived today and will testify to-
morrow

The United Catholic Total Abstinence
societies met last evening in Father
Mathew hall, and adopted resolutions
on the death of the late Rev. Denis
Scannell:
Whereas, the almighty God in his
infinite wisdom and Justice has relieved
of the labors and troubles of this world
to enjoy the peace and happiness of the
next, the Rev Denis Scannell, beloved
pastor of st. Anne's parish;
Therefore be it resolved, that by his
removal, the Catholic church has sus-
tanned the loss of dutiful son, q de-
voted pastor and an able counselor; the
city of Worcester is bereft of one Of
her Robest citizens; the United Catho-
lie Abstinence societies of Worcester
mourn an honest advocate, always anx-
ious to lend his aid in uplifting his peo-
pie from the terrible curse of intem-
perance.
And be it further resolved, that a
copy of these resolutions be inscribed
in the records Of our union; that a copy
be sent to the press of the city of
Worcester.

Henry J. Cummings, Edward H.
O'Brien, John T. Sheehan, Henry M.
Shaughnessy, Miss Lizzie Love and
James McGrath.
At the meeting, John 7. Sheehan, who
represented the union at Westfield
stated that the people of Westfield were
making every endeavor to make the
stay of the out-of-town visitors as
pleasant as possible. A meeting of

BERTILLoN's SYSTEM.
Experts Declare That 1t is Worthless
Good Day for Dreyfus.

Rennes, Aug. 2S.-At the opening OF
the Dreyfus court martial today Paray-
laval proceeded TO show that the geo
metric regularities alleged by NJ. Ber-
tillon did not in reality exist He also
contended that the alleged regularity of
the key word interest was only ap-
proximate and proceeded to illustrate
showing that all M. Bertillon's proofs
applied as we'll to Esterhazy as to
Dreyfus. Finally, NJ. Paray-JavaI de-
clared that M. Bertillon's measurement
of the word interest" which served as
the basis of the whole system, was en-
tirely false and, therefore M. Bertillon's
entire system falls to the ground and
no longer exists" (Great sensation.)
In conclusion M. Paray-Javal said,
amid laughter, that he thought M. Ber-
tillon was very intelligent man, but
that his system was false and he, the
witness, was convinced that only self
esteem prevented NJ. Bertillon from adj
hitting his error.
M. Bernard, an inspector of mines,
who took high honors at the Polytech-
nique school, who followed NJ Paray-
laval at the witness bar, said he APP
peared to refute a portion of Mr.. Ber-
tillons evidence, which was based on
false circulations. AS a matter of fact,
he added, it was on such basis that
the whole system rested. The witness
said he was greatly surprised that M.
Bertillon thought fit to have recourse
to psychological arguments to prove:
First, that the bordereau was fabricat-
ed; second, that the method which
might have been employed in writing
certain words were such as to consti-
tute proof against Dreyfus
M. Bernard also said that he was as
tonished at the fact that NJ Bertillon
Lad undertaken to account for the
shape of letters and the space between
words. There was not 1.25 millimeters,
as alleged by M. Bertillon, but 1.56.
Moreover the writing of the borderaau
was natural and rhythmic. while its
character and size showed it was not
written by either a short-sighted or
a long sighted person. The witness
then proceeded to illustrate photosra-
phically his contention that the border
eau was not a fabricated document.
and pointed out important differences
between M. Bertillon's photographs
and the original.
While pointing out fault in the APP

threw himself against the pile of girders
on the floor and under it's protecting
sides he lay while the massive beams
from above fell on all sides about him.
One of the largest arches fell directly
across the pile, but Bindon was not
hurt.
Thomas Rabishaw, bridge builder,
was at work on the second arch next
TO the south end of the structure. When
he heard the cry of warning and felt
the building shaking, he took a tight
hold of the beam on which he had been
working. When he realized that the
whole superstructure was going, he slid
down the beam about fifty feet, and
then plunged into the mud in the ex-
cavation at a corner of the building.
Michael Boomer was working on the
south end of the building, on the west
side of the roof. With him was his
Partner, Cornelius Toomey. When
they felt the building shaking. both
grasped the iron arch upon which they
had been working, and came down with
the falling structure. T0omey was Sc
riously if not fatally injured. Bloom
er received only a few bruises.
The direct cause of the accident is
not known, and it will probably be sew
eral days before it is determined.
One theory is that a shifting of sand
beneath the foundation caused the col
lapse of the first arch, which brought
all the others to the ground.
]. J. Johnson. superintendent of the
Pittsburg Bridge Company, when in
teYiewed said: II cannot say what
caused the accident. 1 am utterly at a
loss to account for it, I left the build
ing only few minutes before the
whole thing fell We had finished
putting up the last arch and had be-
gun taking down the traveller upon
which the arches were raised to be set
in place. SThis work was almost COM
plete when 1 left the building. There
remained one or two more beams to be
removed. Then I heard the crash and
could hardly believe my eyes when
saw the result of our weeks of work de-
strnved in a minute"
