SOMMAIRE UN SCANDALE DE CRITAUTÉ, Jacques Dhur. LES ILOTIS MODERNES, Louis Ménard. LA TORTURE AU XIXe SIÈCLE. LE POUVOIR JUGÉ PAR UN HOMME QUI L'A POSSÉDÉ. J. M. FARADAY, Upton Sinclair. RÉVEIL, Maxime Gorki. LE SOLDAT BRIGAND, F. de Spengler. UN SCANDALE DE CRITAUTÉ - Suite - Ainsi, le petit soldat de la légion, Weisrock, avait été dévoré vivant, déchiqueté par les hyènes et par les chacals ! Et, sitôt la nouvelle connue de cette fin tragique, une émotion courut parmi les légionnaires disséminés ça et là dans les postes militaires dont s'émaille actuellement tout l'Est marocain. C'est que, si les soldats de nos bataillons étrangers sont des risque-tout ; si, à chaque instant, ils exposent sans compter leur existence ; s'ils s'aventurent témérairement, follement, parmi les rangs ennemis, tapant à droite et à gauche comme des sourds ; s'ils savent, quand ils se lancent à l'assaut qu'ils ont, la plupart du temps, quatre-vingt-dix-neuf chances contre une d'avoir la poitrine trouée d'une balle ou le front fendu d'un coup de sabre ; s'ils ont fait, en un mot, d'avance le sacrifice de leur vie, ils ne peuvent admettre que ce sacrifice soit inutile, et que la mort les prenne autrement qu'en plein combat et revêtue pour s'emparer d'eux la forme hideuse des bêtes puantes du « bled ». Et d'un bout à l'autre de la ligne d'opérations, qui va d'Oudjda à Taourtt, en passant par Berguent, en s'étendant peu à peu vers Fez et Tanger, ce fut un même frisson d'épouvante qui secoua ces braves quand ils surent la fin du petit soldat Weisrock. Car ils furent bientôt mis au courant du drame. Depuis septembre, les compagnies montées du 1er étranger ont été versées au 2e et on a disséminé les éléments de celle commandée par le lieutenant Brillat-Savarin dans les postes de Mestigmer, de l'Oued-Irgan, de Taourtt et d'ailleurs. Puis, certains légionnaires, que l'eau malsaine avait frappés de typhoïde ou de dysenterie, ont dû être renvoyés à Oudjda, à Lalla-Marnia et à Tlemcen. Là, ils ont parlé, et j'entends encore un briscard, qui, la voix angoissée, me disait, parlant
qu'en plein combat et revêtue pour s'emparer d'eux la forme hideuse des bêtes puantes du « bled ». Et d'un bout à l'autre de la ligne d'opérations, qui va d'Oudjda à Taourtt, en passant par Berguent, en s'étendant peu à peu vers Fez et Tanger, ce fut un même frisson d'épouvante qui secoua ces braves quand ils surent la fin du petit soldat Weisrock. Car ils furent bientôt mis au courant du drame. Depuis septembre, les compagnies montées du 1er étranger ont été versées au 2e et on a disséminé les éléments de celle commandée par le lieutenant Brillat-Savarin dans les postes de Mestigmer, de l'Oued-Irgan, de Taourtt et d'ailleurs. Puis, certains légionnaires, que l'eau malsaine avait frappés de typhoïde ou de dysenterie, ont dû être renvoyés à Oudjda, à Lalla-Marnia et à Tlemcen. Là, ils ont parlé, et j'entends encore un briscard, qui, la voix angoissée, me disait, parlant du petit soldat d'Alsace mort sans gloire, en plein désert : — Le pauvre enfant !

Une pitié se lisait sur le dur visage d'énigme vivante, car on ne sait jamais quel évènement douloureux ou tragique a amené le légionnaire à s'engager, bien souvent sous un faux nom, dans un de nos régiments étrangers, et beaucoup d'entre ces soldats d'élite, qui traînent derrière eux comme un boulet le souvenir lancinant du passé, sont simplement venus chercher à la légion l'occasion d'oublier dans la mort ! Mais comment Weisrock avait-il pu être rayé des contrôles de l'armée ? L'avait-on porté mort, et sous quelle forme? Aucune bataille n'avait eu lieu, aucun médecin n'avait constaté son décès. De quelle façon l'autorité militaire expliquait-elle sa disparition ? Je creusais vainement ce problème, lorsque à mon passage à Sidi-bel-Abbès je pus me procurer un document établissant que le 31 Août 1910 le capitaine de la 3e compagnie montée du 1er étranger avait écrit
