Guilty" And Mrs Gooby did not faint.
For the first time In Oaklands Police
Court twelve Jurors convicted g. woman
this afternoon for horsewhipping a man.
The precedent for acquitting women, no
matter who they are or what they do,
caused the knowing ones to predict an
acquittal for the lady who chased an at
torney for two blocks with a cowhide a
week ago. But they were mistaken.
Mrs. Gooby made a splendid witness,
but not for herself. Without any prose-
cution that same jury would have con-
victed her.

court to stop the lady's volubility. Mr.:
Leach did not see what past litigation had
Holman was anxious that the lady should
not voluntarily turn into a witness against
herself. But It was all in vain. Judge
Smith cried stop, madam and Attor-
neys Leach and Holman both tried to put
check on the witness tongue. and Bal
lift Sam Mitchell tried to keep the lobby
in order; but above everything could be
heard the high-pitched testimony of Mrs.
Gooby as she told how she laid 1t on and
on and on for two blocks with the flee
ing attorney ahead of her.
While the witness was taking breath
Prosecuting Attorney Leach asked her if
she had any intention of disturbing Mr..
Mitchells peace before she went to his
'Tntention?" she said. 'Well, you bet I
had intention. 1 intended to do 1t for a
week. Why, bless your Honor, what did
you think I was going there for?"

When 1t was all over Judge Smith read
to the jury the section referring to dis
turbances of the peace. 1t sounded very
cold and convincing. especially the phrase

Result Discussed on shtpboard.

New York. Sept. 11.-Dreyfusards app
parently predominated among the pas
sengers on the steamship La Gascogne,
which reached here from Hayre Sun
day. There was a general expression of
regret at the verdict of the military
court at Rennes, and much sympathy
was evinced for Capt. Dreyfus and his
wife. There We're some who upheld the
court, and on the way up the bay, after
the new had been learned from the pi-
lot and at quarantine, there We're ex-
cited groups all over the ship arguing
about the case with much vehemence
and gesticulation.
1T is the disgrace of France!" Jus
tice is outraged" Truth is dragged in
the mud!" We're some of the characteri-
cations of the verdict.
San Francisco, CAL, Sept. 1.-THE
Emanuel Sisterhood, representing
wealthy Jewish families of San Fran
cisco, have sent the following message
| to Nine. Dreyfus:
THE Emanuel Sisterhood on its own
behalf and the Jewish womanhood of
San Francisco, laments with you, prays
with you and with your hopes for a
final triumphant vindication.'

White, of Chicago, the champion 1876
pound pugilist of the world, who was
recently given a decision, in the twenti-
eth round, over George Lyons, colored.
OF Chicago, at the Dubuque tournament.
Sellers says he thinks the local amateur
referred to by White is Sioux City's
BLACK Pearl" a colored fellow OF quite
little skill, who has been the pride of
Sioux City's sports for several years.
Sellers went to Sioux City for the pur-
pose of picking out training quarters
and will spend the intervening time in

The most important part of the Dreyfus

have always maintained that it was
not Dreyfus who was on trial, but
France, and therefore, it is France
against whom the verdict of guilty has
been returned.
BY this burlesque of justice, this
CLOSING over of all suspicious facts
against the generals and this obstinate
ignoring of all the series of murder, sui
cides and attempted assassinations;
this ridiculous assumption that behind
all this smoke there was not one spark
of fire, France-if she allows herself to
be represented by this military crew
has abdicated as a center of light
among nations, if even she has not
ceased to exist altogether as nation,
for procuring mutual justice is the first
reason why men band themselves in
groups and nations.
1t is horrible to think of what the
prophets and poets of France have
dreamed for her and then to witness
this national shipwreck. You will find
Victor Hugo and lola speaking of Paris
much as the old Hebrew prophets spoke
of Jerusalem as the place from which
the law should go forth to the nations.
Now / suppose lola will again be in
danger of his life and liberty, much as
Jeremiah was in old Jerusalem just be-
fore its destruction.
Those who may be inclined to think
that two court-martials can not be mis-
taken must remember that the two
trials are not Independent of each other.

spiracy in one instance. then the con-
spirators We're ex-hypothesi, such des-
perate scoundrels that they may be
trusted to have done anything to save
their skins when threatened with dis
covery.
There can be no extenuating circum-
stances. They probably represent the
guilty consciences or the approximations
of the enemy In short, this only com
promises the prosecution Dreyfus and
/ his friends will not accept it.
Yes. no doubt Dreyfus will continue
his fight for justice, although every one
must have personal grudge against
France for simply taking up so much OF
the worlds time. for we are all sick to
death of the affair.
