PORT ARTHUR, Texas, August Ia
Port Arthur is now sea port The
steamship ST. Oswald decorated with
naEs and strenmers entered the ship
canal ut o'clock to-day and steamed
through at n speed Of eight knots an
hour. She was royalty welcomed by
almost the entire population OF the
city. For two years past, assertions
have been freely made that the canal
would never be finished. that II was
not practicable. and was only town

the completion OF the work.

Dreyfus, at this point, rose from his
scat and asked leave to explain in re-
gard to the assertion that he had
traced on a card the Itinerary of a
certain Journey OF the general stan.
Both the itinerary and Journey, he as
serted, were purely fictitious.
NJ. cnsimIr.P crler then said he de-
sired TO relterate that he had never
promised anything to Dreyfus, adding
that It was with NJ wnldeck-RousSeau
alone thnt he had spoken In regard to
tho condemned man. Therefore. NJ.
casImir. Perlcr reiterated his protests
at the Ieitcrs OF Droyfus referring to
negotiations.
This caused NJ. DemanEe to explain
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1899-08-15


After this General Blllot referred to
Colonel plcquart's proposition to entrap
Esterhazy. whom he suspected. but
General Billot forbade this. He added
that Colonel Picquart always acted
without authority. General BIllot next
referred to the eminent services Of Pic
quart, rendered to the army, leading to
his being entrusted with a confidential
mission TO the east, and afterwards to
TunIs. He energetlcally protested
against the allegation that he had de-
sired to send Colonel Picquart to
place from which he would never re-
turn. He explained his devotion to
the country and army, and his anxiety
respecting the secrets Of the national
defense often entailed exceptional meas
ures, like resignation and going to dis
tant points, from where 1t was possible
to return With a superior rank, and
where heroism certainly wiped out ev-
erything except treason. (sensation)
After 3ustlfying his course towards
Colonel Picquart, General Billot ex-
planned what he had done in connection
with Esterhnsy. He then renewed his
protests agalns; the attack the defend
ers Of Dreyfus made upon him during
the trial Of NJ. lola, and concluded with
expressing regret that while In pow
err he was obliged to devote most Of his
time to the Dreyfus affair, which time,
he added, ought to have been given to
the guardianship OF the national de-
tense.
NJ. Demange invited General Blllot to
explain the statements OF NM. Barthou
and Plneare, former ministers, that the
general was once SO doubtful Of the
guilt Of Dreyfus that he did not sleep
for several nights.
General Biiiot acknowledged the truth
of the statements.
Answering questions of counsel. the
general said Colonel Picquart's reve-
latlons produced doubts in his mind,
but, he added. all the same his convlc-
ton of the guilt OF Dreyfus remained
unchanged.

N. Demange asked General MercIer
why he had not included In the dossIer
of 1894 the doubtful translation Of the
telegram Of Agent "B" to his govern
ment, under the date OF November 2.
In reply, General MERCER said not
one Of the translatlons OF the telegram
was communicated to the Judges be-
cause there still existed doubts In his
mind. NJ Demange remarked that the
text was communicated to sandherr as
officiai, and therefore doubts were Inn
possible.
NJ. Demange then asked that NJ. Pale
ofogue, of the foreign Office, be recalled,
in order to state that only single YER
sion of the telegram was given him, as
he understood General Mercler's uncer-
tninty was aroused by the receipt Of q
semi-ofIlclal draft OF the telegram.
At this point Major CarrIere. the rep
resentatlve OF the government, asked
that It be clearly shown that two ver-
slons Of the telegram were given one
official and one semi-oiiiclal.
N. DeFnaRge said that in communl-
eating the official text November 2,
sandherr emphasized its official charae-
tor.
Counsel next asked General MercIer
why the explanations of the secret dos
sIer were not Included in the dossler re-
IatInV 10 the revision.
The general replied that he consid-
cred these explanations were given for
his personal use. and that was why he
destroyed the document. At this NJ.
Demange expressed sense Of aston
ishment and asked General Mercler II
he did not have reasons for suppress
Ing the document.
The witness rcpudIntcd the sugges-
tion.
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1899-08-15

There was a great sensation when NJ.
Demange mentioned the opinion ex-
pressed by NJ. Barthou that General
BllIot had been forewarned in regard to
the forgery OF Lieut.-Colonel Henry.
The general acknowledged that the
Henry forgery was among the factors
arouslng his doubts
Continuing, General Blllot said he was
immensely surprised and deeply nf-
fected by the revelation OF the forgery.
He said: 81 never could have believed
n superior officer could be guilty OF
forgery"
NJ. CavalEnac, former minister of
war, was the next witness called. Re
plying to the president of the court, he
said he was the first cabinet minister
to assume responsibility to Dreyfus. He
had closely followed the inquiry Of the
court Of cessation, and still desired to
associate himself with the responsibility
of those who. in 1894. protected the
country and the army against treason.
(sensation.)
Continuing. the witness said that
among the principal points upon which
he based his convictions, was the con-
fesslon to Captain Lebraun-Renault, in
support Of which contention he quoted

After N. DemaRse had asked II. WAL
deck Rousseau to Intervene with 81.
Caslmir-Perier (then president OF
Franee) to obtain publicity NJ. Wal
dsck-Rousssau reported that the presi-
Tent appeared favorable to the sugges-
ton. and counsel therefore thought he
might communicate the fact to Drey-
fus.
N. Demange added that 1t must be
remembered that Dreyfus wrote the
letter four Year, after the occurrence.
and his recollection OF the facts natur-
ally lacked precision. NJ. Demansc
expressed regret at the fact that the
letter had been published. ana apollo
gized to NJ. casimlr-Perier. who thank
ed counsel for his expression OF regret
and explanations.
General BIllot, former minister of
war. was the next witness. He was
In uniform, sat with crossed legs. and
gave his evidence in a conversational
manner. He said he would be seventy
one years of age tomorrow. Like
everybody else. he added. he had some
knowledge Of the Dreyfus affair before
taking the war portfolio. While feel
ing deeply on the subject, he remained
aloot from the matter until he returned
to the cabinet. In the early days of his
ministry the witness continued. NJ.
scheurer- Kestner Ia former vice pres
ident of the senate) asked him whether
he ought not to investigate the Dreyfus
affair. NJ. scheurer-Kestner, the gem
eral pointed out, had made similar rep
reservations to NJ. de greycInet, and
got the same reply from both, that neil
ther Of them were very conversant with
the AFFAIR.
General Blllot dwelt ut length upon
the action taken by n. scheurer- Kest-
ner, to whom he recommended pru-
dence.. NJ. acknowledgment finally
communicated to General Billot his
conviction OF the innocence of Dreytus,
but the general found the evidence in
sufficient, and asked him to investigate
the matter further. The general then
dwelt with the role of Colonel PIcquart.
whom he said, he holds in the highest
esteem.
HE is intelligent" said General Bill
lot, and gave me valuable information
about the organization of neighbor-
ing army and It's artillery. This In
formation showed the necessity Of con-
tlnuing the reform of our artillery,
commenced by that great iniator, Gen
eral Mercler.
II, who am neither an engineer nor
an expert In handwriting" added Cen
eral BlIlot, saw in that direction the
grand work he accomplished"

could testify in regard to the orders is
sued,
NJ. Dcmange seized upon this declara-
ton, and insisted that General Mercler
repeat the statement that he had given
orders to General de Bolsdefre on the
sixth relative to mobilization.
NJ. caEimlr-Perier. resumIng his tes-
tlmony, said he did not desire to reply
to certain Of General Mercier's insInu-
ations.
81 do not wish to answer them"
said the former president. 1.-THE cir
cumstances are too sad and too tragic
for me to desire to envenom the discus
sion. I am master OF myself and Of
my conscience. 1 would only state
that General Mercier has made every
effort to mix me as deeply as possible
in this affair. But 1 have remained
aloof. / affirm. during the progress Of
the investigation"
The former president then complain
ed Of the incorrect behavior OF his sub
ordinate toward the chief of the state.
"As an instance" said NJ. casImlr-
Perler, General Mercier undertook to
shorten the term of service of $1,000 men
without consulting the chief of the
state, thus lacking In the respect he
owed to the chief of the state"
NJ. caslmIr-Perler next protested
against the assertions made by General
Mercler In regard to the role adopted
by the chief OF the state in this affair,
whereupon the general lnterjected that
he had spoken OF the attitude assumed
by NJ. caslmer-Perler because he had
sworn to tell the whole truth.
N. Demange asked General Mercler
IL he had explained to the cabinet how
he reconciled the relations of cause and
effect and the patriotic emotion aroused
by the treason with the communication
Of the secret documents to the court
martial.
The general repeated his statement
Of Saturday as his hypothesis of the
situation.
NJ. Dcmange asked M. caslmlr-PerIer
II, on the sixth. an understanding had
not been reached between France and
Germany on the subject of Dreyfus.
NJ. caslmIr-PerIer replied that before
his Interview with the minister on the
sixth the question OF Dreyfus had never
been raised between them and Ger
many.

Too Much Realism.

Nine. de Navarro has recorded in "A
Few Memories" the greatest lesson she
ever received against too much real
ism In certain drama the heroine,
under great excitement. suddenly stops
to gain composure as she hears the
approaching carriages of the guests.
"Harkw she says. Il hear the
wheels of their carriages.
We obtained the effects Of approach
ing wheels, but, try rs we would, the
stamping of the horses feet upon the
gravel before Clarisse's door we could
not manage. At las: a brilliant idea
struck me, which the stage manager
promptly Endorsed.
1t was that we should have in a
donkey from Covent Garden to trot up
and down behind the scenes on the
gravel especially laid for him. We
were decidedly nervous on the first
appearance of our four footed friend,
whose role was to counterfeit the high
stepping horses of the brilliant French
court
When his cue was given, there was
only an ominous silence. repeated
the word in louder voice, when such
a braylng and scuffiing were heard as
sent the audience into roars Of laugh
ter. Although 1t was one Of the most
serious situations OF the play, could
not help joining in their mirth until
the tears rolled down my cheeks.

An Inviting Gun.

An amusing incident took place at
be Grand Central station a few weeks
tgo. A portly man with clothes Of for
eign cut, outlandish baggage and de-
cided German brogue bought ticket
for a western point and then bought 4
sleeping berth and waited for his train
to be announced. AS soon as ii was
called he got into line, occupied much
space with all his bags and bundles
and made people in front and behind
him uncomfortable. He had no sooner
reached the platform than he dropped
his baggage and freight and pushed
his way back into the waiting room,
ran up to the police officer and said
breathlessly:
Say, lost my birthmark."

to his satisfaction. The crowds had
gone through the door. and it was near
