Continuing, Col. Cordier said that the
day after he returned to Paris, Col.
Sandherr, who appeared greatly dis
tressed, handed the witness a copy Of
the bordereau on foolscap paper. Sand
herr and Cordier animatedly discussed
the bordereau, Sandherr considering 1t
ample evidence of treason The docu-
ment was photographed and an inves-
tigation was opened resulting in sus-
picfons against Dreyfus being aroused.
Prior to this there was no presumption
OF Dreyfus' guilt. Ii was on October
that the suspicious of the prisoners
guilt became definite. Witness said he
believed the bordereau arrived at the
war office after September "A. Very few
officers We're then aware that treason
had been committed. Witness thought
IT necessary to enter into these partlc-
ulars in reply to the statement OF his
assistant, Major Lauth. before the
Court OF Cessation.
At this point. Major Lauth. rising in
the centre of the court exclaimed: II
beg leave to speak, my colonel" (Sen-
sation)
Proceeding with his testimony, Col.
Cordier said he believed the bordereau
was handed TO Col. Sandherr by Col.
Henry.
Cordier then explained what was the
Ordinary channel by WHICH informa-
tion reached the war office. The 'ordin-
ary channel" the witness said, was
very clever spy, attached TO the intelli-
gence department who had the habit
of visiting great houses, but who pre-
ferred the company Of servants to the
company of their masters.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1899-08-29
PIecIng Documents

Cordier then described the method OF
piecing documents and showed how the
bordereau was pasted together by Hen
ry, who was usually entrusted with
this work. The witness said piecing
documents possessed fascination for
the men who were engaged upon such
work. "like the passion OF fortune tell
ing by cards" t.4
Men who have once pieced paper"
said the witness amidst laughter, will
always continue to do so."

Such was the situation at the moment
OF reception OF the bordercau. Dealing
with the leakage discovered by the
military authorities, Col. Corder said
he ascertained II was occurring at
Bourges. Witness recalled the fact that
an artihcer named Thomas was SEN
fenced for treason In 1894 The foreign
correspondents Of Thomas did not
know this and consequently letter
addressed to Thomas was intercepted
and a reply was sent This letter ask
ed for plans OF shell. The headquar-
ters stan obtained the plans and sent
them 10 Thomas correspondents. The
latter replied thanking Thomas. and

room was packed to its utmost capacity
as the distinguished French statesman
began his deposition. Following are
the proceedings In detail:
The appearance of Col. Cordier, for
merly deputy chief OF the intelligence
department OF the war Office as the first
witness aroused great interest, as,
since his previous appearance, the
Colonel has been released by the MIN
lister of war from his oath Of profess

Speaking in firm audible tones the
Colonel testified that September %.
1894. he left Paris on a fortnights
