The young scion Of the great railroad-

It was built at the company's shops at
West Albany, and it made it's first trip
on Wednesday afternoon.
The Vanderbilt fire box can be easily
taken out for repairs and put back
again. This is an improvement over fire
boxes in use at present, which cannot
be extracted under ten days.

then searched, handcuffed, placed in a
prison van, and taken by military es-
cort to the Ecole Militaire, where he was
marched between guards into the cen
ter of q hollow square of troops in the
large courtyard of the school. He had
already twice asserted his innocence to
Capt. Lebrun-Renaud, who commanded
his guard. The morning was misty and
rainy, and the courtyard was muddy
waste, round which doomed the build

while vast crowd that surged and
pushed in the avenues without uttered
loud and menacing cries against the
prisoner. At exactly nine o'clock the
drums rolled, the troops presented
arms, and the regimental band played a
melancholy tune. The sentence was
read, Dreyfus standing firmly with
head erect, his left hand resting on the
pommel of his sword, and his eyes look
ing squarely in the eyes of Gen. Darras,
who commanded the troops. Then a
gigantic sergeant tore the triple band
from the captains cap, the buttons

collar and sleeves, and the red~stripes

regularly submitted, boldly perjured
bit of evidence the judges based de-
cision they had already formulated.
Furthermore, that scrap of paper in
Gen. Mercier's trembling hand was in
not even the remotest manner con-
nected with the alleged selling OF
French army secrets to the Germans.
1t was fragment from some inter-
cepted correspondence, passing be-
tween attaches of different embassies,
and related to matters even more in
famous, more unspeakable, than any
treason of which Dreyfus was accused.
But Gen. Mercier's best efforts could
not keep the truth buried, nor could
his subserviency to the rabble and the
rank alike secure him in his seat as
minister of war. He has been warned
to leave France, but has chosen to re-
main, at least for the present.

then dictated to him the memorandum
which afterward became famous as the
bordereau. At one point Du Patty sud-

The enemies of Dreyfus laid partic-

the accused officer had sold army Sc

disproved August IL by ex-President
Casimir-Perier who, before the court
martial, read the text of dispatch re-

from Prince Hohenlohe, the German
imperial chancellor, which the former
communicated to NJ Casimir-Perier
during visit to the Elysee palace.

note appeared in that journal asking if
it were true that an important military
arrest had recently taken place. This
set everybody talking, for in France
anything concerning the army is con-
sidered of paramount Importance.
Wild stories were afoat, and the excite
ment reached fever heat when the news
was confirmed on November 1, by the
appearance of brief official commune
cation in all the papers. Dreyfus was
kept in close confinement until Deem
Der 6, when his counsel, M. Demange,
was allowed to see him. On December
10 Dreyfus was arraigned before the
court-martial, which was held in the
Conseilde Guerre building, opposite the
,Cherche-Midi prison. Great crowds
gathered to see him cross the street
and shouted: ''Death to the traitor!"
The trial was secret and lasted until
December o. when the court found the
prisoner guilty and sentenced him to
transportation for life, after being sub
jected to military degradation.
On the morning of January 4 the
condemned man was ordered to put on
= captains uniform that had been spe-
cially prepared by having the lace on
the cap, the red seams of the trousers,
and the buttons and trimmings ON the
tunic taken off and then stitched on
again loosely enough to stay in place,

torn off. The sword that he was made
