THE DREYFUS CASE
It Drags It's Weary Length Along
Without Particular Excitement.
A WITNESS FOR DEFENDANT
One Witness Makes Patriotic Speech to
The Court Instead Of Testifying to
Material Facts Reference to Ger
man Ambassador.

Rennes, August 29.-Colonel Cordier
deputy chief of the intelligence depart
ment under the late Colonel Henry
who, since his previous appearance in
court, had been released by Minister OF
War General De Marquis de Gallifet
from his oath of professional secrecy
was the first witness in the Dreyfus
case to-day. He testified that the late
Col. Sandherr, not Lieutenant Colonel
Henry, received the famous bordereau
He said his belief in the guilt Of Drey-
fus was first shaken when the date of
the bordereau was made known. He was
convinced that Dreyfus was innocent.
Cordier spoke up strongly for Colonel
Picquart as conscientious soldier and
honorable man. He explained that Hen
ry was jealous of Picquart because the
latter was given charge of the statis-
tical section, which Henry hoped to get.
Cordier expressed belief that it was
because Of Picquart that Henry COM
mitted the forgery. Cordier several
times mentioned an ambassador of Ger
many, which caused the president of
the court, Colonel Jouaust, to tell the
witness he must not introduce an am
bassador's name or refer to Germany.
During his testimony no fewer than five
witnesses asked to be confronted with
him.
De Freycinet, former minister of war
and former premier, followed Cordier.
He was expected to speak about the
100000 francs, supposed to have been
contributed abroad, mainly in England
and Germany, to the DreyfusIan war
chest. De Freycinet began by express
ing the pain he experienced at the trou-
bles his country was undergoing. Later
he said he remembered conversation
with General lamont, at which there
was reference to money coming from
abroad in support of the Dreyfus agita-
ton. De Freycinet, however, did not
remember that specific amount was
mentioned. De Freycinet then alluded
to his fear that attacks on the chiefs
of the army might be prejudicial to dis
cipline," adding:
might not these attacks lead to the
disappearance of discipline, and what
then would be the result If we found
ourselves in difficulties with foreign
country?"
In short, De Freycinet delivered a pa
triotic speech rather than deposition,
concluding with the words: "All the
world will accept your verdict, which
will open an era of reconciliation"
The president of the court, Colonel
Jouaust, declined to put to the witness
some questions from Maitre Labori,
leading counsel for the defense, on the
ground that they had no direct bearing
on the case. The remainder Of the ses-
sion was occupied with testimony of
minor witnesses.
Paris, August 29.-General Brugere,
governor Of Paris, has ordered
one of the military surgeons to examine
Du Patty de Clam and report when it
will be possible to take his evidence for
use at the second Dreyfus court-mar-
tial. The report has not yet been de-
livered. The examination Of Du Patty de
Clam will be conducted by Major Ira
verni in the presence of M. Demange,
counsel for the defense.

Prussian Diet Closes.

Berlin, August 29.-Both houses of the
Prussian diet met in joint session to-
day. Imperial Chancellor Prince Ho-
henlohe expressed the very great re-

adhered steadfastly to the project, and
is confident the conviction Of its neces-
sity would grow more among the people.

that the government hoped the next
session would bring about an under
standing with the diet. The session

U. S. COURT ON WHEELS.
Territory by Which Trouble and
Expense Are Saved.

The United States court of the north.
ern district of Indian territory is prob.
ably the cEly travelling court, including
the courtroom and all persons and
things connected, in existence in the
United G;stes. United States Commits.
sioner Harry Jennings, United States
Marshal L. l.. Bennett, and a corps of as
sista2tg, have adopted It's novel plan
of travelling over tie district and hold
ing court at several different places III
stead CT at one place in the district, as
heretofore. The northern district OF
Indian territory is large and the towns
are far apart, SO that it is very hard for
persons to travel to ard from to attend
court, as well as expensive,
Commissioner Jennings has had "a
small house built en- wheels, much re-
sembling q movers outfit, in which they
travel, aE.A also in which they hold
court in the various towns ever the dis
trict. They carry cookiEg utensils with
them and have an expert cook, who
keeps their house in order. They &C
from place 10 place wherever they are
wanted, and they claim that they have
saved the people considerable money
as it is much less expensive for the
court to travel than for the people tc
travel in that country. Criminals can
be reached more conveniently in this
manner, as it is often dangerous to con-
duet criminals from town TO town with
out heavy guard, as their allies may
attempt to rescue them. The travelling
court of the Indian territory is a success
and the people of that district are well
pleased with it.-Pittsburgh News.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

Artificial cotton is being manufac-
tured in Austria.
The estimated value of the worlds
product of slate is sl6,600,0o.
There are 1920 species of plants used
for commercial purposes. Of these 420
are used for perfumes.
A new process introduced in the pro-
duction of mirrors has lessened mer-
curry poisoning among the workmen
over so per cent.
A new Italian gas, said to be so per
cent. cheaper than acetylene, is COM
posed of 90 parts of quicklime and five
each of colophony and calcium carbide.
Aneroid barometers may be used to
measure the depth of shafts in mines,
provided number of trips are made
and the average taken. The car is not
stopped at. intermediate points.
The figures given in the London Coal
and Iron Trade Review show that of the
worlds pig iron product of 1898 1874
per cent. was converted into steel. In
1865 only four per cent. of the worlds
pig iron product was applied TO the
manufacture of steel.
People marvel at the mechanism of
the human body, with its 492 bones and
60 arteries. But man is simple in this
respect compared with the carp. That
remarkable fish moves no fewer than
1856 bones and MUSCLES every time n
breathes. 1t has 1920 veins, to say
nothing of SO muscles.
So far as known, the fly serves no USE
full purpose, and it does great deal of
mischief. One of the most serious evils
resulting from their existence is the
transportation of disease germs from
place to place, and depositing them on
human food. fly alights on infected
substances and then departs, carrying
scores of bacilli on its feet. An ordinary
househy will lay 120 eggs during its
existence, and 80 per cent. of them will
be Matched out. During the ordinary
summer - or 10 generations OF flies will
be produced.

More New Cars.

On Saturday two more new oars
were sent from Carson to be put in
service on the c. & G. E. r. One is
a combination passenger coach and
smoker and the other a mail and ex-
press car. The interior of the pas
senger coach is finished in cherry,
the doors of black walnut and cher
ry, the windows with double inside
blinds; but the comfort with which
the long journey can be made is what
especially attracts attention, for the
coach contains four reclining and
two revolving chairs, besides the reg
ular passenger seats, finished in
chestnut and upholstered in morocco
and fitted with steel springs. The
reclining chairs are reversible. and
can be placed in three positions, to
suit the comfort of travellers. For
invalids obliged to travel they are a
great boon. The smoker is parti-
toned off the passenger department;
by plate glass and furnished with
seven car chairs. The express and
mail car is fitted with the latest con.
veniences for handling express and
mail. The management has always
kept the roadbed and rolling stock in
good condition, and the courtesy of
the employees on this road is in pleas
ing contrast to the treatment re-
ceived on more pretentious lines.

One OF the instances of the irony
OF fate is the condition of affairs al
the Redlands mill, near Ballarat, says
the Inyo Independent. It seems that
a corporation was formed in South
ern California for the ostensible pur-
'pase of working mine in South
PARK mining district. but really with
the object of SHINING the stockhold-
ers. A modern milling plant was
purchased and started all right, but
there was no ore and at the proper
time the affair collapsed One dny a
prospector came along to the aban-
idoned property. He dug around the
mill Tor day or two, horned the
rock and then the result of bis OBJ
servation proved the astounding fact
that the mill was built over 20-foot
ledge of $50 ore. Curious, isn't il?
But the facts are given Us by Il min
ing man of the highest repute, and
there is no doubt as to the truth of
the statement.
