NEW TURN IN
 STElNHFIL TRIAL IS HUNDRED THAT TRIAL WILL BE ABANDONED AND A NEW
 HEARING HELD.
Louis Gresori, Assassin of Major Dreyfus Writes Presiding Judge
 and Demands to be Heard.

Paris, Nov. 10.-The testimony to- day in the trial of Mime. Steinhei charged with the muIder of her hus- band and her etepnother, was dis Marietta Wolf, the COOK in the Stein hell household, and her son Alexan- dre, whose appearance was awaited with profound interest, threw no new light on the mystery, but by furth- CT mass of contradictions, strength ened the impression in the accused woman's favor.
 Mime. SteinheiPs nunse also retract- ed her previous disposition, in which she expressed the opinion that tbe defendants illness after the crime was simulated, and Maurice B0rderel
 wealthy merchant, whom the state assumes Mme. teinheil desired to man. |Gy. testified to his absolute belief in her innocence.
 The states circumstantial case against Mime. teinheil seems fo be rapidly breaking down, and it is al- ready rumored that the trial may be abandoned and a new investigation ordered. Anti-Dreyfus papels like H.ibre Parole and the Patm, have al- ready begun to revamp their previous insinuations that the crime involved a political plot for the destruction of evidence regarding the death of ex- President Felix Faure, which the anti. Dreyfusards never have ceased to claim was due to foul play, because, as they alleged, M. Faure opposed the revision of the Dgeyfus case. Louis Anthehne Gregori, who shot Major Dreyfus at the Canonization of Zola in the Pantheon in 1908, has writ ten an open letter to M Devalles, the presiding judge, demanding that he be heard on the subject of the death of the former president and the anti Dreyfusards seeking to give color to their insinuations by emphasizing the yelled threats which Mme teinheif re- pea;edly made in open court to reveal her relations with prominent men in every walk of life. if driven to bay.
 Judge Devalles, however evidently assumes that former intrigues have no bearing on the case and twice has practically defied her to draw in what ever scandal and names eihe pleased. You may name whom you will" he has said to her.
 Marietta Wolf contradicted categor- lcally the testimony given yesterday 1 by Benup, photographer Witness said she had never stated, as Barby said, that she would deny everything if Mime. Steinheil wa sarrested. The wit
 ness was confronted by Barby and re
 peated in his presence the denials she
 had made before.
 During his examination, Borderel
 was asked whether ne had previously testified that when discussing the diff
 fieulties in the way of their marriage,
 Mime. teinheil had said:
 One never knows. let us await
 events"
 The witness denied that he had so testified.
 | Several stormy scenes occurred
 during the afternoon. At one point
 Mime. Stelnhel interrupted angrily and shouted defantly that if it was true that she had received s1.200 from ] her lover, Chounard, the iron man, he
 had made a hundred times that
 amount from clients whom she had l brought him. z
 At one time, when the judge had
 pointed out discrepancies between the testimony given at the preliminary hearing and that offered in defense
 today, Mime. Steinheil cried out that
 this comparison was unfair, inasmuch
 as Magistrate Andre, who had heard the original testimony, was prejudiced against her.
