tense of Dreyfus when he resumed his
place on the stand at the opening of the
courtmartial this morning.
He made his points eloquently and
pulled the stuffing from the case, built
up during the first few days of the
trial by the ex-minister of war and
General Rouget.
The climax of Picquart's testimony
was reached when with great sensa-
tionsl effect he cried:
~ am convinced that Esterhazy is
the guilty man.

NO FRUIT.

Prospects Are Poor On The Other
Side Of The River.
The Mexican gardeners and small
truckmeu across the river say that
there will be practically nothing in the
fruit line this month.
The season has so far advanced
without any of Ell Paso's famous
grapes appearing on the market.
The MeXicans say that the small rise
in the river which occurred last month
did no more than to raise their hopes
and to have them fall abruptly.
Few peaches. pears, plums, or grapes
OF the native variety are seen on the
streets. and not many will be seen dur
ing this month
The failure of the crop will most
likely cause many hardships among
the Mexicans on the other side this
winter.

A Special Policeman Has Bee n
Detailed To Patrol The More

The great number of robberies that
