GUERIN PREFERS DEATH.
Valiant Jew Batter Scorns
Demands to Surrender
His Castle.

Paris, Aug. 16.-This evening 1t ap-
pears as if the efforts Of M. Lascs to
arrange for the capitulation of NJ.
Guerin are likely to be fruitless owing
to excessive demands Of the beleaguers
who insist upon the right to leave his
fortress aud proceed at leisure to the
palace Of justice, where he will sur
render himself.
Owing to the excited condition of th5
public mind, the government refuses to
permit this. as it would undoubtedly
attract great procession of followers
After further consultation with M.
Waldeok-Rousseau and other officials
who declined to, negotiate, M Lascs
returned to M. Guerin's house, which
is still surrounded by a crowd, al
though the street is now barMcaded tt

to remove the beams from the door.
After an hours consultation, M
Lascs reappeared, exclaiming, 1T is ali
over. These men are so impressed with
the idea Of death, that 1t is impossible
to do anything with them"
Efforts will now be made to have
their socialist colleagues and the lead
ers of the Anti-semite league call upon
M. Guerin and his comrades, and en-
deavor to persuade them to surrender.
Provisions were supplied to M. Guerin
this afternoon from the scaffolding OF
neighboring house, but the police
were afterwards stationed on the scat
fold to prevent this being repeated.

PROFESSOR HENcH DIES.
Ann Arbor Instructor succumbs to a
Fractured Skull.

Boston. Aug. 16.-Professor George A.
Henca of Ann Arbor, Mich, who was
injured by fall from a bicycle at
Franconia, N. H., Saturday, and who
was brought to the Boston city hospital
yesterday suffering from a fractured
skull, died at that institution Just be-
fore noon today.
Prof. Hench was an instructor in the
University of Michigan and was passing
MS vacation in the White Mountain
region. The accident to Prof. Hench oc-
Cured while he was going down a steep
hill near Franconia on his bicycle. A
companion who was riding with hin,
missed the professor and returning
found him lying in the road with his
face and body badly cut and bruised
and unconscious. He was taken to a
hotel, where local physicians found n
fracture of the skull and they advisad
MS removal to Boston where he could
receive expert attention. An operation
was decided on and was performed
yesterday afternoon. Jnfavorable
symptoms, however, developed during

portunfty to speak at the end Of every
deposition and would continue to do SO.
Gen. Roget spoke for three hours
without adducing any new facts, only
reitereting in the most forcible terms
what has been banded about in the
anti-Dreyfusard press for a year past.
The most interesting part of his testi-
mony was his attack on,Col. Picquart,
which will undoubtedly lead to the
conformation of the two men.
He treated Dreyfus without mercy,
both in words and in attitude. In fact,
1t seemed at times as though he would
provoke the prisoner into striking him.
Inc generals manner was most pas
sionate. In his outburst at the end of
his testimony, he uttered the most
ruthless attacks with the aiNAof one de-
llvering a pleasant Sunday school ad-
dress, leaning over the front of the wit
ness rail, slipping from glass of water,
Wlping his lips and hopping his brow
with perfect self-satisfaction.
But again and again he would half
turn ~ his chair, and pointing his fing-
er at Dreyfus, would repeat some cruel
accusation, at the same time fixing his
eyes on the accused man, his body in
clined forward like that of a, cobra
awaiting the moment to strike. Drey-
rus, however, was not hypotized rab-
III anu steadily returned his gaze
sometimes throwing a. glance at the
president of the court, as though APP
pealing for permission to reply.
Once, when Gen. Roget had flung one
OF these darts he stopped and deliber-
ately paused. One could see the fire in
Dreyfus' eyes, and in his tightly
clenched jaws could be OWNED the
struggle that was going on within him.
The captain of gendarmes, seated be-
SIDE Dreyfus, watched him closely.
The seconds passed like hours, and the
spectators held their breaths. Gen.
Roget seemed purposely to prolong the
silence in order to make a deeper i'm
preston. 1t was perilous moment.
But Dreyfus won the battle over his
passions, and when Roget's voice was
at length heard again every one knew
tne Danger was past, and a deep drawn
sigh Of relief came from the audience.
The court then adjourned. AS the
prisoner passed out in front of the seats
assigned to the representatives of the
press, his face was pale but animated
He seemed to be in a state of great
nervous excitement and in a furious
temper.
