MAY BE ACQUITTED.
nrcyfus Requires the Votes of
Only Three Judges.

New York, August 2o.--The
Tribune has the Following special
from Paris: In spite of the pre-
vaillng passion and in spite OF the
somewhat unfavorable attitude and
rulings OF the court martial, 1t
should be remembered that II only
three members OF the court con-
clude that Captain Dreyfus is not
guilty he will be acquitted, as the
French code does not require SEN
fences of court martial to be unan-
imous. II the court is divided,
three against three, the president
is precluded from giving his casting
vote, and an acquittal must be pro-
nounced.
This furnishes great hope for the
defense, for !, is believed that al
ready two members OF the court,
Lieutenant Colonel Brogniart and
Captain Parfait, are convinced that
Captain Dreyfus is innocent.
