francs had been raised abroad for the de-
tense of Dreyfus.
In reply. NJ De Freycinet expressed the
anguish which he felt at the sight of the

was the identity of our anxiety in regard
to the army. We mutually expressed I'M

the present attacks have had profound

quite correct, while the Information fur

1 Colonel Fleur appeared in the witness
box to refute Colonel Cordiers testimony.
He declared that on August %, 1898, Colo
mel Cordier said TO him;
"Dreyfus is guilty. but there must be
| two others. There are three of them"
| Colonel Cordier shrugged his shoulders
! and admitted that lust week before the
arrest OF Henry he said forgery had been
committed at the headquarters STAFF but
the colonel said he told the same thing TO
others the day after the posting up OF the
speech OF NJ Cavalgnac. the minister OF
| war, which was voted by the chamber Of
deputies.
Archiyist Gribelin also advanced and
! protested against Colonel Cordiers state
ment He was followed by General Mer-
cier, who said II was necessary for Cor
1 der to say what he knew OF the arrange
ment OF the secret dossier by Colonel
Sandherr General MERCER caused SEN
sation by indorsing Colonel Cordier's
statement with reference to the alleged
attempt of Mathieu preyfus TO bride Colo
/ mel Sandherr.
The general said: when Colonel Sand
herr reported the interview and l asked
his opinion OF It, Sandherr replied He
gave me the impression Of being an honest
man resolved to sacrifice everything for
