 Rennes, Aug. 11.-All the notable
 Dreyfusite leaders are satisfied with tht
 result of the examination of the score | doss1er They have urged their news
 paper friends in Paris to clamor for ful publicity, knowing that if it is granted
 the military and nationalist parties vii
 be utterly disgraced. They are con- Vlnced that the diplomatic and war of
 lice dossiers teem with forgeries. Ot course, their impressions are derived from the five counsels present at the examination of these precious papers
 Publicity would mean the pillory for General De Boisdeffre and his company They would be pelted with their own foul eggs, while Captain Dreyfus would be cleared in the face of the whole world The military caste here is furi- ous at the turn things are taking. The correspondent of Russian paper told me to-day that within a cafe frequent ed by officers he, unfolded the Drey- fusite Aurore to read it. All the mill tary men near by scrowled at him in a marked manner, and, after coughing and otherwise showing their disap- proval, they went in a body to the other end of the cafe as if the Russian was a leper.
 All the officers at the military club came on the club balcony when bun dle of Dreyfusite journals was being burned in the streets, and they approv- ed the performance by unmistakable 1,c uc of the order forbidding officers not at tached to the garrison to stay here dur ing the trial.
 l hear that in unclean imaginngs the secret military dossier exceeds the worst top-shelf literature. To secure secrecy the scribes who worked for Henry and his friends did not hesitate to forge letters from high diplomatic personages. Nearly a score of love let ters from a very high diplomatic sphere were supposed to have been seized in the dispatch box of an embassy during transmission to Berlin. The person whom the woman is represented as hay ing a correspondent was an attache of an embassy there and much younger than the woman who is made to appear quite an Eloise. Of course he mentions the Dreyfus affair and asks the attache to help to whitewash the captain.
 M. Joures expects that there will be a great exposure of conspiracy against the republic and that high-handed of the present government against certain generals will be more than justified by the coming revela- tions. To-morrow's proceedings will be in the history of the coun try, it is believed.
 Matre Labori is sanguine and has al- ways hoped but I can gather that both counsel still see that the judges are deeply and strongly prejudiced against the prisoner and will try to condemn him on his looks, if all legal evidence breaks down. All the officers now read the Petit Journal, which they had never looked at before the Dreyfus affair. The venom and vitriol of the Intransgeant are grateful to them because employed against their enemies, real or supposed. They favor the Gaulois, Echo de Paris and Eclair because these papers respond to their own sentiments. Maitre De- mango, therefore, has but a single full ,rum-the pleasure every human being .akes in hearing himself praised
 l have just learned that the secret 1ossier contains shocking reports of the spies on German prince, who has filled nigh situations under the empire dur ng the last twenty years and one of hem in Paris, city he often visits. There is only one prince answering to his description Chancellor Von Hohen- ohe. The police spies who informed the department at the war of ice of the princes secret doings did not attempt to establish a connection be- ween them and the Dreyfus case. But l ,ne must suppose that the sole object | las been to prevent the dossier ever be- ng published. It would be necessary to | 70 to Suetonius for parallels of the hor- ors with which this famous, or infa- nous, collection of documents reeks. IS matters stand I think Maitre De- nange now feels that the two dossiers urnish him with a case too strong for ven the officers to resist. Anyway, he 1oks really hopeful.
