.DREYFUS CONVICTED
AND SENTENCED.
Judges OF Court Martial Voted
Five 10 Two.
TEN YEARS IMPRISONMENT.

Rennes, Sept. 9.-The govern
ment did everything possible today
to prevent disorder at Rennes on
account of the expected verdict of
the Dreyfus court martial. The
whole garrison of the city was in
arms. Altogether eight thousand
men were ready to preserve peace.
As consequence of the military
display few people stood about the
city, and no attempt was made at
demonstration.
The public was excluded from a
space of nearly quarter of mile
around the Lycee, and around the
court at frequent intervals were
stationed squads of troops. Each
person who attempted to enter the
court was stopped and his creden-
dentials examined.
When the court reconvened De
Mango began the conclusion of
his speech for the defense. He
entered into Sc rching analysis
OF the testimony offered by the
prosecution. He finally said to
the judges, "You must choose be-
tween Dreyfus and Esterhazy, and
say byyour decision who is guilty."
He then began scathing arraign-
ment of Esterhazy, saying he was
a rascal, swindler and an advep-
turer, capable of committing any
crime in the calendar.
1t was after ten O'Clock before
he finished. So exhausted was he
that he fell to the floor, tears
streamed from his eyes and froth
came copiously from his mouth.
The court then took recess,
and reconvened at three O'Clock
when the military and police re-
doubled their precautions against
a demonstration.
Major Carriere made the closing
address for the prosecution, La
bori waving his right to make the
closing speech.
The court then retired to delib-
crate and at five O'Clock a verdict
was reached. The judges then re-
turned to the court room and an
announced that they had decided
by n vote of FIVE for conviction
and two for acquittal that Dreyfus
was guilty, and sentenced him to
ten years Imprisonment.
During the reading of the YER
dict absolute silence prevailed.
Dreyfus was not present at the
time, being in waiting in an ante
room, where he listened to the YER
dict as it was read by Col. Jouast.
Only the members of the court
and counsel were present.
