DEMANGE'S FLIGHT OF
BRILLIANT ORAT0RY
Held the Audience Spell-b0und, But
Could Not Save Dreyfus.

Rennes. Sept 9.-The appearance OF
the streets when Rennes awoke this
morning left no doubt in the minds of
anyone that the final crisis OF the great
trial had been reached Instead or
scattered gen d'armes guarding the VI
cinity of the prison and the Lycee, the
whole town bristled with soldiers All
the streets near the courtswere guarded
at intervals by double lines of infantry.
Two companies of infantry sat on the
church steps adjoining the Lycee Win
their arms stacked in front of them.
while the court yard of the prison ana
at various other points cavalry couId
be seen in readiness.
Everyone entering the court was sub
iected to the closest scrutiny Even the
women who attended the sessions were
deprived of their small sunshades be-
fore being permitted to pass.
A larger crowd than usual witnessed
the passage of Dreyfus from the prison
to the Lycee, but the crowds were no
where large, and aside from the pres
ence of the military, the town was as
tranquil as ever.
Day Broke Dull and Cherries.
The morning of the day which was
to decide Dreyfus' fate broke dull ana
cherries, and the court room was Ilned

was enhanced by the grave aspect OF
the audience The faces of the Judges
also reflected the solemnity Of the oc"

The last session Of the 'courtmartlaii
opened at 7.30 a. m. Madame La3ori
was among the few ladies present, and
in fine press seats there were only about
fifty reporters. The prisoner looked
flushed and in ill-heaith, apparently
suffering from the great strain.
M. Demange resumed his speech LOT
the defense, which was interrupted
Yesterday by the adjournment OF the
court. The audience listened to his
remarks with the most serious atten-
ton. and he followed the judges closely
In his appeal to them, he strongly ac-

SENATOR RAwLINs' REMARKS.
Pays Handsome Compliment to Sem
ator Dubois Of Idaho.

Ladies and Gentlemen-1 feel greatly
honored tonight in being permitted to
speak to such a magnificent audience
of people. The interest which the peo-
pie of this state manifested in 1896,
when the state gave to Mr.. Bryan the
magnificent majority of $1,000, that same
interest is still eminently predominant
in the hearts of the people of Utah.
(Applause.) / am not here tonight to
make speech, because l know you
are in state of great expectation as
to what is to come, but I know this
audience will be delighted to hear from
a distinguished leader of bimetallism
from the north. A few years ago when
l went to Washington, when the ques-
ton was as to whether there should be
repeal of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act, and the forces were ar
rayed on the one side and the other of
the great question Of bimetallism, there
were certain men in the United States
who stood conspicuously to the front in
doing battle for the cause that 1 know
is dear to the people of the west-to the
people of Utah. Among the distin-
guished leaders in that fight was the
gallant young senator which our neigh
Dor state from the north honored itself
by sending to the senate of the United
States. This gentleman had been a
lifelong Republican, but when that
party deserted the cause of bimetallism.
raised the standard of gold against the
interests and welfare of the people, he
and others like him in that party, true
to their convictions and their constitu-
ents, did not leave their party for the
sake of some tempting advantage
they left it because they believed in
that principle which had been deserted
by the party with which they had been
during their lives associated.
although some of them are now in
private life although the party which
they deserted for the time being is pre-
dominant in this nation, although it has
gifts to bestow and patronage to dis
pense-these men are still true to their
principles. They have proved them
selves not only honest and sincere In

SENATOR DUBOIS SPEECH.
Declares Silver Republicans Remain
Loyal to Bryan.

Senator Dubois spoke as follows:
s'Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle
men-I did not come here tonight ex-
pecting to make a speech to you, nor
did you come here tonight expecting to
listen to me. I came from my state OF
Idaho to pay my tribute of respect to
the foremost American citizen in this
republic. (Applause) l came to pay
my respects to the champion of bimetal-
lism. AS your presiding officer stated,
almost four years ago there were some
Republicans who left their old party
when it declared in favor of the single
gold standard. I was one of those.
(Applause) And it was a boon to us
when there stepped forward that bril-
liant, courageous and true man, VIII
liam J. Bryan, to take up the standard
under which we had enlisted to fight.
(Applause.) And is there any reason
why any one. who left the Republican
party three years ago on account of
principle, in order to support William
J. Bryan-is there any reason, 1 say, or
any logic, why that man should desert
William J. Bryan, who stands today
and defies the gold men of his own
party and the United States? Gap
plause.) Any one who for truly con-
scientious reasons and on account OF
principle supported William j. Bryan
three years ago will follow him this
time with ten times renewed energy
and loyalty.
Conditions In Idaho.
$50 far as my own state of Idaho is
concerned more than one-half of the
Republican party of that state left tho
party with their delegation in st. Louis
when they marched out, and they are
out yet. I will say, and it will go to
Idaho. perhaps, that there are not
twelve silver Republicans in the state;
there are not dozen of them who VIII
not gladly cast their votes for William
]. Bryan if he is candidate next fall.
(Applause.)
And when hear it intimated that
there are silver Republicans in Utah
who have gone back, doubt it very
much. What have they gone back to-?
If they go back to the Republican
party, there will be single gold stand
ard to mock and jeer at them. Why,
the other day a bankers convention in
Cleveland was not satisfied, so they
say, with the present condition of af-
fairs, but drew up resolution, these
gold bug bankers, which they say con-
gress must pass this winter, and con-
gress probably will pass it, and it pro-
vides that every one OF our species OF
money, paper, silver and all else, shall
be redeemed in gold only, and that the
preenbacks shall be retired as soon as
they are once redeemed, and all money
put in the hands of the national banks.
Is that inviting to those who left the
Republican party three years ago, on

Rennes. Sept. 9.-The expected has
happened. Dreyfus has been con-

| in the court room tits afternoon fully
expected the verdict. they were COM
pletely stupefied when it was given, and
the silence which prevailed in the room
and the way men turned pale and
caught their breath. was more impress
sive than any other manifestation
could have been.
Maitre Demange sank back in his
chair and the tears trickled down his
cheeks. and Maitre Labori turned white
as a sheet. while all around the court
men looked at each other in silence.
The only sound to be heard was the
ruStling of paper from the reporters
bench as each press representative tried
to be first to send the news.
| AS the audience left the court room
fully ten or fifteen men were crying
openly, and the majority of those pres
ent walked quietly down the street for
more than block without speaking a
word. 1t was like a funeral procession.
Dreyfus Wept Bitter Tears.
Meanwhile a tragedy was being en-
acted in the little room off the court
room, where Dreyfus listened to the
reading of the verdict He had been
told the result by his lawyers and had
wept bitterly, but when in the presence
of the officials of the courtmartial he
listened impassively to the sentence
His wife. who was waiting in torture
and suspense at her house, bore the
news bravely, and when visiting her
husband this afternoon, showed the on
lockers who were on the streets no sign
of her suffering as she walked from
her carriage to the prison.
Matthew Dreyfus was not present in
court this afternoon, but visited his
dered. He found him perfectly calm
and without any manifestation of sur
! prise at the finding Of the court. The
| prisoner simply shrugged his shoulders.

Believe He Will Be Pardoned.
The general belief is that Dreyfus
will be pardoned; but this will not sat
isfy his friends, who vehemently de-
clare that they will refuse to accept
the verdict and will continue the bat
tie until the verdict is reversed The
verdict, they say, is directed more
against the Jews than against Drey
fus, and, if allowed to stand, will make
their existence in France impossible.
Maitre Labor and Maitre Demange
took the midnight train for Paris They
drove to the station in a closed car
riage, escorted by four mounted gem
d'armes. The road was practically de-
serted and no demonstration occurred
en- route or at the station.
Maitre Demange and Maitre Laborf
will tomorrow sign an application for a
revision of the case, although there is
no hope that the verdict will be re-
versed. Both are much upset, though
it can hardly be said that they are sur
prised.
