MARSHAL HARRY THOMPSON
Makes His kej1inder to Delegate
Flynn's J Jefferson Speech.

Guthrie, o. T, Aug. 23-Yesterday,
United States Marshall, c. II. Thompson,
arrived in this city from Enid. Mr..
Thompson was seen at his office by a
State Capital reporter, and although he
was very busily engaged in work stopped
and smiled, when the stereotyp.d Ques-
ton of Flows territory politics" was
fired at him, and said: well, as far as
1 know since the late unpleasantness over
at Jefferson, there has been nothing to
regret"
What about Flynn's speech over there.
anyway" asked the reporter.
The marshall looked thoughtful for a
moment, and then with much earnest
ness replied: eff the published reports of
that speech are correct. and 1 guess they
are, as Mr.. Flynn has since reiterated
his remarks, there are several things n
uttered. concerning myself that are not
borne out by the facts. First Of all. let
me say in answer to the charge that
am not in sympathy with the old soldiers,
that out of the twelve deputies now on
my force, six are old soldiers, as anyone
cane ascertain by looking over the roster.

Jail, making seven employed by me. No

men who stood a living line between this
country and foes who would have de-

The authorities claim that they have
other clues which will ultimately lead
to the arrest and conviction of the right
parties. County Attorney Taylor said to
a representative of the Times-Journal af-
ter the statement OF the four men had
been taken that he hah had one of the
bst detectives in the southwest al work
for several days on the case at a heavy
expense and that the detective had de-
veloped the case fully and had reported
TO Mr.. Taylor that the wrong men were
under arrest. This fact makes the muir
der of Eick a greater mystery than ever.
One curious feature of the case is the
fact that the murdered man, who wa
well known aegorat hwAlceeaiwo
we'll known to a great many people here,
was not seen in the city Immediately be-
fore the murder was committed. This
makes It appear that Eick was in camp
with a party from some other town when
he was murdered. One thing is certain,
Eick was decapitated at the camp found
southeast of the city and his papers
burned at tchapmeshrlu dshrdlhrdl
burned at the camp fire.

DREYFUS AT SCHOOL

General Lebelin de Dionne, governor Of
the military college, then testified to
Dreyfus' conduct at college. The prison
er, he said. displayed great intelligence
but had a deplorable temper. He recall
ed a remark of Dreyfus' that people OF
Alsace-Lorraine would be much HAPPIER
under German rule than under the rule
of France.
The prisoner, referring to the recrimin-
atoms mentioned by General de Dionne,
explained that during his first year at
the military college he attained very
marks, that the second year he almost
held his place. when he add. he heard
that a member of the examining board
had declared at a board meeting that.
without knowing the pupils, he put mark
5, opposite the name of Dreyfus, simply
because thew did not want Jew on the
headquarters stan. The prisoner thought
that his protests against this would be
readily understood. Regarding his alleg-
ed remarks about Alsace-Lorraine. Drey-
fus declared that the statement was the
very opposite of his real sentiments.

THE GENERALS NEW PLAN

IT learn on good authority that the
forces Of the prosecution, lead by Cen
eral Roget. are very seriously discussing
the advisability of adopting entirely new
tactics. According ID my Information,
they hope to be able to render plausible
the following theory: In the presence.
as they are. OF the undoubted facts OF
treason, as proved by the existence OF
the bOrdereau. and quite unwilling TO ad
NIT that Colonel Henry was capable OF
treason; convinced. moreover. that only
general staff officer could possibly
have obtained the Information contained
10 the bOrdereau. they ought to impose
as a solution or as an explanation the
idea that Dreyfus and EsterhaZy were
aocomplices. brought together by weyl.
OF the Yacht. and thus Esterhazy's admls-
sion that the bordereau Is in his hand
writing, a fact accepted by the court OF
cessation, would be accepted by the court
martial, while Dreyfus would be looked
upon as the real traitor and purveyOr Of
documents to the military attaches OF the
triple alliance.
II need not marshal against this hypoth-
esis the numerous proofs OF its improb-
ability and even Of IT'S 'impossibillty. but
mention Il here because the very fact
of its being now under discussion throws
a sudden and brilliant light on the panic
Il do not hesitate TO use so strong n term
which has seized hold OF the little band
of conspirators against justice, as they
have beheld the Rennes judges during the
last three days slowly but surely placed
in possession OF those facts OF which only
French superior officers outside the war
office still remain in blissful Ignorance.
M. Labori's vlgor and tact have dis
armed the dlstrust of the judges. He
is succeeding, like a skillful but kindly
surgeon, who uses the scaipel at Just the
right moment and carries the incision on
~ Just 30 far as Is necessary TO reveal
the true nature OF the wound. They feel
that he does not probe merely for the
sake of probing, but in order to dag
nose and prepare the wound for the proper
sort OF dressing. He takes no unneces-
sary advantage Of them. They are begin
ming to look upon him not as a dilettante
surgeon, ruthlessly experimenting IN or
der merely to display his professional tall
ent. but as loyal Frenchman Ike
themselves, convinced only that the in
terests OF France require courageous de-
termination TO deal with the case reso-
lutely.
General Comes piteous explanation
that Fcsterhazy was a defendant, but
defendant in special conditions is an hts
toric utterance. and was greeted with
hIlarIty by the whole court
The correspondent OF the Daily TeIe-
graph predicts an acqulttal II The min
istry Is not overturned, and also refers
