WILL NEVER Be SILENT,

Paris, Sept. 1.-THE Aurore publishes
this morning a long letter from NJ.
Emile lola, the novelist, which is
pendant to his famous "Jaccuse" let
ter in the early stages of the revision
movement 1t concludes as follows:
The ministry which have betrayed,
the ministry which had the weakness to
leave big children with muddled minds
to play with matches and knives, the
ministry which has forgotten that to
govern is to foresee-has only to has
ten to act if it does not wish to pander
to the good pleasure of Germany, the
fifth act of the drama, the deneument
before which every Frenchman is trem-
bling
The government can procure the
documents. Diplomacy has settled
greater difficulties than this. When
ever it ventures to ask for the docu-
ments enumerated in the bordereau
they will he given, and that will be
the fait nouveau (new fact) which will
necessitate a second revision before the
court of cessation, which would be this
time, l hope, fully informed
But, if the government were to re-
coil, the defenders of justice and truth
will do what is necessary. Not one of
us will desert his post. Proof, invinci-
Bile proof, we shall finally end by OBJ
tanning. On Nov. % we shall be at Yer
sailles. My trial will recommence, in
asm0ch as it is to recommence in all
its fullness. If, meanwhile, Justice is
not done, we will again help to do it.
My beloved and valiant friend Labor,
whose honor hoc haay7 iyap
therefore pronounce at Versailles the
address which he was unable to pro-
nounce at Rennes, and it is very sim
pie. Nothing will be lost.
As for me, l shall not be silent. |
will merely have to utter the truth
without fear of injuring me, for l will
be ready to pay for it with my liberty
and my blood. Before the Seine as
size court, l swore to the innocence of
Dreyfus. l swear to it before the en-
tire world which now proclaims it with
me, and repeat, truth is on the
march. Nothing will stop it. All
Rennes, it has just made a giants
stride
no longer have any fear except that
l may see it arrive in a thunderclau
of the avenging nemesis, devastating
the fatherland, unless we hasten our
selves and make it shine forth under
our clear sun of France"
M. lola entities his article 1.-THE fifth
act"
After describing his horror on hear
ing the verdict, which he regards as a
moral Sedan, he accuses the army
chiefs of having crushed Dreyfus in or
der tc save themselves from prison, and
making an appeal to the government,
which he says will return to France the
honor she has lost by the Rennes YER
dict, verdict that he describes as a
most extraordinary attempt against
truth and Justice"
He asserts that he knew positively in
January of last year that Esterhazy
was the real traitor, the latter having
furnished Col. Schwartzkoppen with au-
merous documents, many in his own
handwriting, a collection of which is
now in Berlin.
Since then" he says, 81 have lived
in terror lest Germany should strike us
with the proofs in her possession, thus
dishonoring our army in the face of
Europe, in order to vanquish it easily
afterward."
