the charge of melting soldiers to in
subordination in connection with the

''Vive lie jury" and singing the Mar

Count Esterhazy Was the Author OF
the BOrdereau.
ASSERTION BY M. MANEAU
FINISHES HIS ARGUMENT BE-
BORE COURT OF CESSATION.
The Guilty Man Having Once Been
Acquitted of the Authorship,
Cannot Be Punished Now For
High Treason Although He Be
Guilty-Might Be Hoax.

Paris, May 31-The vinicity of the
palace of justice was almost deserted
today when the court of cessation re-
sumed hearing the arguments in the
application for revision of the Dreyfus
trial. Many of the public seats in the
court were empty.
NJ. Maneau, the procurator general,
continued his speech, which was inter-
rupted yesterday by the adjournment
of the court. He contended that Major
Count Esterhazy was the author of the
bordoreau which has figured so promi-
nently 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 author
ship of the bordereau, cannot again be
prosecuted on this ground, even if he
were hundred times guilty. Later NJ.
Maneau said:
What proof exists that there has
been an act of treason of a nature to
compromise the security of the state
Are we not perhaps in the presence of
a number of unimportant documents as
general as Merton thought, and, con-
sequently, in the presence of myster-
ious hoax, an audacious piece of swind-
ling perpetrated by the author of the
bordoreau upon his foreign correspond
emit? This is a terrible question, and
one which involves the most painful
presumption-that of the mrtyrdom of
a man whose innocence seems estab-
lished by several new facts"
Innocence Is Declared.
NJ. Maneau's address was largely a
repetition of the statements of the re-
porter of the case. There was the same
array of facts and similar deductions
therefrom. The procurator generals
analysis of the secret documents was
very close, and he wound up with an
emphatic declaration that there was
nothing in the secret dozzier to incrim-
mate Dreyfus, saying:
I'VE do not understand why there
was such delay in submitting them to
investigation"
This statement caused a sensation.
Continuing, NJ. Maneau remarked:
'Of the three secret documents by
which NJ. Cavaignac former minister of
war; sought to justify the condemna-
ton, two were forgeries and the third
does not apply to Dreyfus.''
This declaration, uttered with i'm
solemnity, had an immense eff
feet on the audience. In conclusion NJ.
Maneau said:
I'VE assert several new facts exist,
of such nature as to prove Dreyfus'
innocence. Therefore, may it please the
court to quash the judgment of Dec
Y, 1894, and send Dreyfus as defend
ant before such courtmartial as the
court may decide"
This statement caused applause which
the president suppressed by ordering
the court to be cleared. Later the court
adjourned.

The Laughter Cure.
British Nfedical journal.

NbTItISII NItuIcdI JOuTuaI-J
Therapeutic effects of different kinds
have been attributed to laughter by the
gravets medical writer's from Hippocra-
ties downward. The Father of Medicine
laid special stress on the Importance OF
merriment at meals. The old physicians
recommended laughter as a powerful
means of .desopilating' the spleen. Fons-
sagrives said that mirth is the most pow
erful lever of health. TissOt processes to
have cured scrOfulous children by tickling
and making them laugh. Dumont de Mon
teaux relates the strange case of a gentle
man who got rid of intermittent fever af-
ter witnessing a performance OF lie Ma
rage de Figaro at which he had laugh
ed conSumedly. Other learned doctors
state that nephritic collie. scurvy. pleurisy
and other affections are favOrably in
fiuenced by laughter.

again. These funds cannot be made
available until the united sentiment of
the country demands forward move
ment along definite lines. 1t is waste of
time to talk about private capital con-
structing these great works, and less
than useless to argue that the capital
list ought to be willing to take the risk
of building great storage works, with
the possibility of receiving his money
back again, if successful, after the lapse
of many years"
Resolutions Introduced.
A resolution introduced by Lewis of
Oklahoma condemned Atkinson of Bos-
ton for his pamphlet against war in the
Philippines, and asked the national con-
groes to the Philippines. Other resolu-
lions were:
By Ex-Governor Prince of New Mex
leo, asking for the establishment of a
department of mir es and mining TO cor
respond with the department of agricul-
ture; also for government aid for the
Improvement of the merchant marine.
By Stuart of South Dakota, asking
for government aid to build reservoirs
for storing flood waters on the upper
Missouri
By Governor Murphy of Arizona, ask
ing statehood for the territory and the
cession of the arid lands.
A lively fight is on among the irri-
gationists on the question of building
reservoirs for the arid districts. One
faction, led by Governor Murphy, want
ed cession to the state and state reser-
voirs. Opposed to this is a faction fav-
oring the storage of water by govern
ment reservoirs.

TWO ROUTES NAMED
Nicaraguan Canal Commission Has
Made Its Report.

Washington. May S1.-The state de-
partment today made public an official
abstract of the report of the Nicaraguan
canal commission as presented by Adj
miral Walker, the head of the commits
sion. The report itself covers 136 type
written pages and is accompanied by
eleven appendices. 1t is understood to
be the intention of the president to sub
nit the full report to congress at the
beginning of the next session. The sy-
nopsis furnished to the press today
says:
The commission understood it was to
cover all routes heretofore proposed,
having any merit: that new routes that
appeared to have merit should be de-
veloped and the entire region of canal
possibilities should be examined with
sufficient thoroughness to enable a Just
and comprehensive comparison OF the
various routes to be made and the most
desirable one selected With this view
the commission made a careful study
of all data bearing upon the Nicara-
guam canal question, and organized a
large force

There Was Much Delay.

Much delay to the work and great
annoyance to working parties was
caused by attempts at revolution and
by the strained relations between the
governments of Nicaragua and Costa
Rica. The outbreak of the war between
the United States and Spain was also a
serious matter"
The report goes into minute details
with respect to all matters connected
with the construction of the canal, and
says, after a mature deliberation that
the commission has adopted and esti-
mated for the route from Brito to Lake
Nicaragua, called Childs route, and
from the lake to Greytown. called Lull
route. This line leaving Brito, follows
the left bank of the Rio Grande to near
Bueno Retro, crosses the western di-
vide to the valley of the lakes which II
follows to Lake Nicaragua. Crossing
the lake to the head of the San Juan
river. it follows the upper river to near
Roca San Carlos, thence, in excavation
by the left bank of the river to San
Juanillo, and across the low country
to Lake Siloco.
1t requires but single dam with reg
ulating works at both ends of the sum-
nit level. The surveys have in general
revealed better physical conditions than
were hitherto supposed to exist, es-
pecially as TO the amount or rock in
the upper river. whereby it is possible
to greatly reduce the estimated cost of
construction.
Fix on the Cost.
To determine the proper unit of prices
for excavation. the average of prices
actually paid to contractors on the
Chicago drainage canal, which repre-
sent cost of plant. prices paid for work
done and contractors profits. were
taken. To these certain percentages
were added for the difference in loca-
ton, climate, etc.
In obtaining the estimates for the
cost of locks, the prices actually paid
for building the government locks at
Sault st. Marie were taken, and SO per
cent was added for the difference of To-
cation.
After giving due weight to all the ele-
ments of this important question and
with an earnest desire TO reach logical
based upon substantial
facts, the commission believes a canal
cam be built across the isthmus on this
route for not exceeding Sis, 113, 100.
Colonel Haines concurs generally
with the views of the other members of
the commission. but his estimate of the
cost is s154,sls,3os.

vius ]. Van Voorhis of Indianapolis

against trusts, after which Ex-Governor

duced.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed

dress the convention, the delegates ris-
ing to their feet, waving hats and
cheering lustily.s
While Mr.. Altgeld was in the midst
of his discourse, Mr.. Bryan, who had

mitted to the stage by a rear entrance
and took a. seat behind the flies, where
he awaited the conclusion of Mr.. At

Scofield. We are putting up skimming

weeks. This additional facility will en-
able us to turn out about 800 pounds of
cheese per day. We now use $500 pounds

us TO increase our supply 10 perhaps 5000
pounds a day, which we can make into
