He added: "I received NJ Bertillon Dec
II and 10, at the instance of the minister
of war, who thought his demonstrations
very curious, interesting and conclusive
but / must confess" said NJ Casimir-Pe-
rier, amid a general litter in court "that
judged them differently"
He added: An that was done and said
among the ministers was done without my
knowledge"

His words Were Distorted
"NIv uords have cortaInI,, ham dietort-
ed for bave no recoIIeciion of snch a
letter ,Tho words ma former President
of the republic have just uttered are ex-
act, have never, even In my own mind,
supposed there was any engagement un-
dertaken by him and that he had not held
thereto l can wei understand The in
dignation of VI. CasimLr-Perier; but, such
an idea never crossed my mind.
IN. Demange had asked me at the time
of the trial, in conveying through M.
Waldeck- Rousseau my request for a pub
lie trial, that this publicity should only
be on condition that the question of The
origin OF the documents renamed secret.

question, and in that ! bow before the
superior interests OF my country. In my
mind II was with The defense and not with
the President of the republic that the
word Of honor was given. / meyer had an
idea that an engagement was made be-
tween the President and myself Never!
Never Neyer!
Jouaust: Then you declare false these
letters in which it is said the President
of the republic entered into certain en-
gagements with your"
Dreyfus replied: In any case, the
sense has been completely distorted
M Caslmr-Perier gave his evidence
with a blanched face, but in the deter
mined tone Of a man who maintains every
word uttered, which inspired confidence
