ESTERHAZY THE CRIMINAL
N. MANAU DEMANDS THAT THE JUDO
MENT AGAINST DREYFUS
BE QUASHED.

Paris, May 31.-The surroundings Of the Pal
ace Of Justice were almost deserted to-day when
the Court OF Cessation resumed hearing the ar
guments In the application for a revision of the
Dreyfus trial. Many OF the public seats in the
court were empty.
NJ Manau the Procurator-Generalc continued
his speech which was interrupted yesterday by
the adjournment OF the court and his voice
could be heard throughout the hall contending
that Major Count Esterhazy was the author OF
the bordereau which has figured so prominently
in the case and not Dreyfus In the course OF
his remarks he said that. whoever was guilty.
somebody had committed the crime OF treason.
Esterhazy however. he pointed out having been
acquitted OF the authorship OF the bordereau,
cannot again be prosecuted on this ground even
II he were hundred times guilty. Later NJ.
Manau said:
What PROOF exists that there has been an act
of treason OF a nature tending to compromise
the security OF the State? Are We not. perhaps.
In the presence OF a number Of unimportant doc
uments as General Mercsr thought, and con-
sequently in the presence of a mysterious hoax,
an audacious piece Of swindling perpetrated by
the author OF the bordereau upon his foreign
correspondent? This Is a terrible question. and
one which involves the most painful presump-
tion-that of the martyrdom of the man whose
innocence seems established by several new
facts"
NJ Manau's address was largely a repetition or
the statements of the reporter Of the case There
was the same array of facts and similar deduc-
tions therefrom The Procurator-Generafs anal
ysis Of the secret documents was very close. and
he wound up with an emphatic declaration tha'
there was nothing in the secret dossier TO IN
criminate Dreyfus. saying:
1--WE do not understand why there was SUCH
DELAY In submitting them to investiganoh.
This statement caused a sensation.
continuing NJ Manau remarked:
mo, the three secret documents by wnicn M
cov.,gnac forner Minister Of Wan sought 10
,rst,sv the condemnation. two were forseries
ana the third does not apply TO Dreyfus
This declaration, uttered with Impressive
.o,au,n,,v had an immense effect upon the
audience
In conciusion NJ Manau said
.su. assert that several new facts exist OF
900, nature as to prove Dreyfus's innocence
r,,s,s,ore may IL please the Court to auash the
,,'s~r,,.nt Of December %. 1894. and send Drey-
e. as a defendant, before such court-msrtiai as
the Court may decide"
This statement caused applause, wnich tne

In Justice Shocks court yesterday after
noon Louis Hyman. a junk dealer on West
Washington street, was fined 81 and costs
for provoking Himon Ringolsky. who has a
junk shop across the street. The men are
rival junk dealers. One day two loads of
scrap iron came from across the West
Washington-street bridge and stopped in
front of Hyman's place of business. Hyman
went out and offered 80 cents a hundred for
the two loads. Soon Ringolsky appeared
and offered 90 cents. Hyman then remarked:
Even IL you buy IL for " cents. you can't
pay for IT," Ringolsky said he could pay
and Hyman called him a liar and various
other pet names. Ringolsky then struck
Hyman in the mouth and they began TO
fight. RiDgolsky was fined in a justice court
for assault and battery and a few days later
he had Hyman arrested and taken before
Justice NickerSon, where he was fined for
provoke. The case was appealed 10 me
