effects" of their depositions in the court
martial M. Ballot de Beaupre then re-
Viewed Major Count Estcrhazey's con-
nection with the case Us already known.
After reading NJ. Mornard's defense.
which concluded by maintaining that
the material evidence OF the bordereau
and the moral evidence cropping out
during the Inquiry pointed not to Drey-
fus but to Esterhazy as the culprit, Bal
lot de Beauprc dealt with the question
OF motive. He read the police report
furnished by N. Girnee, the detective.
all unfavorable to Dreyfus, and reports
OF the prefect Of police. pointing out
that there had been confusion of
Dreyfases with other officers Of the
same name who had been mixed up with
gambling and dlsreputable female asso-
Citations. The latter reports were not
produced at the trial in 1894.
NJ. Ballot de Beaupre then pointed out
that Dreyfus could not have acted as a
traitor from anger or disappointment,
as he had the finest prospects OF an ex-
cellent military career. On the other
hand Esterhazy. the reporter alleged.
was soldier of fortune. always begging
from the money lenders. q
Estcrhazy Tho Traitor.
Continuing. the reporter redd letters
written by Esterhazy abusing France
and the French army, these producing u
deep impression upon the audience. He
referred TO letter written by Ester
hazy to Baron Rothschlld. dated June
2l, 1894, to tho effect that II his appllca-
ton for money were refused he would
have no resources but to kill his family
and then to commit suicide. Such, said
the reporter. was Estcrhazy's language
on the eve Of the date when the. bor-
dereau was placed" The inference to
be drawn was that Esterhazy sought In
treason resources necessary to carry on
a life OF, dissipation.
At this point with the evident appro-
val Of all who listened, NJ. Ballot dc
Beaupre quoted from n. Mornard's
statement as follows:
Although justica has been rendered
more or less impotens with regard to
Esterhazy by the latter's acQuittal Of
the charge OF being the author OF the
bordereau, It Is none the less the duty
OF the supreme court to restore to lib
erty an innocent man unjustly con-
demned."
The court adjourned at half past c
when very few Of the public yet remain
ed In the vicinity. The Republican
guards Immediately returned to bar
racks ana the Gordon Of police was dis
persed.
