THE OREYFUS TRIAL
PRACTICALLY ENDED.
Discouraging Aspect Arises for
the Defense.
LABORI'S LAST EFFORT FAILS

Rennes, Sept. THE Dreyfus
court martial practically ended to-
day. NJ, Labori was the center of
attraction. He arose the early
part of today's session and an
nounced that his efforts to get
German military officers to come
TO the trial and by their testimony
prove Dreyfus' innocence, was of
no avail. He said that the EN-
peror would have nothing to do in
the IN liter, further than to allow
his military officers to make depo-
sitions to send to Rennes. Labor
therefore begged the court to take
a recess of two days and appoint
a deposition commission to go to
Berlin and take the testimony of
the German officers. He gave a
list OF about twenty questions
which he wished asked. He said
this simple means would clear
away the cloud obscuring justice.
The court considered the demand
for few minutes, after which the
request was unanimously refused
The chief of French detectives
was called to the stand. He des
cribed how Col. Patty du Clam,
at the time he read the charge to
Dreyfas, left his revolver on the
table, hoping Dreyfus would com
nit suicide. Dreyfus said he
would not kill himself but would
live to prove his innocence.
The attorney for the prosecution
then summed up his case, and the
court adjourned.
M. Labori will close his case to-
morrow Meanwhile he is prepar-
ing an appeal, in anticipation of
the court deciding against his
friend.
