statement:
eve are authorized to repeat here
with the deelana4ions which the impe-
rial government, while legally observ-

Speech For tho Defense.
PRISONER LISTENS WITH INDIFFERENCE
A Report Current That Labori and Dem.
ange Disagreed Over the Plan
of Procedure.

A special from Rennes says: The
hall of the Lycee was crowded Friday
morning at the opening of the fifth
day of the fifth week of the second
trial by courtmsrtial of Captain Alfred
Dreyfus, of the artillery, charged with
treason.
There was large attendance of
ladies and newspaper writers, who sat
up all night in order to secure front
places. At an early hour long line
was formed of people awaiting admis-
sion. Standing room at tho back of
the court commanded 10 to 20 francs
for places, and the demand increased
as the trial approached its end.
Among the privileged witnesses of
the trial Friday was Baron Russell, of
Halloween, lord chief justice of Eng
land.
Maitre Demange at once opened his
speech for the defense. In eloquent
terms, and with impressive delivery he
brought out strong evidence against
Esterhazy. During the course of his
remarks he cried:
''Do you think if Dreyfus and Ester
hazy had been before the courtmartial
of 1894, that the court would have
condemned Captain Dreyfus?"
Dreyfus listened to the Grafton of
M. Demange with impassiveness.
Whatever the prisoners feelings were
as he heard NJ. Demange's plea in his
behalf, he carefully concealed it.
At IL o'clock M. Demange was still
speaking, and announced that he
would need another two hours and a
half to finish his plea, so the court ad-
journed until 1880 o'clock Saturday
morning.
There was rumor after adjourn
ment of court that M. Labori had de-
cided not to speak, the idea being that
his abstention from doing SO, in view
the irritating effect his every utterance
has on thAcourt. would be rather an
advantage&han otherwise to Dreyfus.
M. Labor was asked if there WAS
any truth in the report, and he replied
with shrug OF his shoulders, appar-
emily conveying the impression that
the matter was under consideration.
1t was generally noticed that when
M. Labor entered the court he spoke
to M. Demange in depreeating tone,
and sharp dsrAssion ensued almost
bordering On a dispute
The same tAiRg occurred during the
usual brief suspension Of the sitting.
The two lawyers were apparently at
loggerheads about the best method of
conducting the ease, which, it is said,
bodied no good for Dreyfus.

A UNIQUE PARDON.

Governor of Alabama Releases Convict on
Conditional Parole.
Governor Johnston, of Alabama, has
granted a unique pardon to John Bos-
ton, an ignorant country negro Of
Russell county, who had been con-
victed of chicken stealing and sem
fenced for six months After allowing
him to serge for several weeks, the ex-
ecutive, who considered that the pun
ishment was excessive, granted him a
parole conditioned that for twelve
months he should not buy, steal or eat
another chicken or a portion thereof.

ONLY ONE STAMP NECESSARY.

New Order Regarding Revenue Stamps on
Bills of Lading.
The latest information in reference
to revenue stamps is circular sent
out by the commissioner of internal
revenue, notifying railroad men and
shippers that hereafter the govern
ment will require but one revenue
stamp for the bills of lading of con-
signment of freight, instead of one
stamp for each bill, which has been
required since the revenue act went
into effect.
THE railroads rejoice at the decision
of the revenue department, for it will
mean the saving of thousands of dol
lars to them.
