Paris. April 21.--The Figaro, continuing
he publication today Of testimony offered
before the court Of cessation 10 the Drey-
fus case, devotes four columns to some
dispositions of minor officials, most Of
them being favorable to Dreyfus. 1t gives
also a fac smile OF the bordereau
Major Forseinetti, who was director Of
the Cherche Midi prison in 1890 at the
time of the condemnation OF Dreyfus, tes-
tined that Dreyfus consistently and per-
sistently protested his innocence, and after
he was condemned repeatedly asked for a
revolver declaring that his only crime was
in having been Jew The witness said
that after the petition for revision OF the
case by the courtmartial was rejected.
Colonel Patty du Clam visited Dreyfus and
tried his utmost TO draw from him con-
fesson that he had been trapped into a
guilty communication of documents to a
foreign power. Dreyfus energetically pro-
tested that he was not guilty and Colonel
Patty du Clam said in parting from him:
III you are really innocent. you are the
greatest martyr of the century"

its publication OF the testimony in the
Dreyfus revision proceedings before the

NJ Bertillon, the handwriting expert who
gave the reasons which led him 10 con-
slider that the bordercau was forged by
tracing the words and pointing out details
in the writing that were common to the
bordereau and to the handwriting of Mad
anne Dreyfus, and also to that OF brother
OF the prisoner.
Several words he showed to be abso-
lutely identical. NJ. Bertillon explained
the points which led him to regard Drey-
fus as the author OF the bordereau.
When NJ. Bertillon was testifylng before
the court martial Dreyfus exclaimed "On

perts, testified TO the similarity of the
