IMMIYI Capt. Feystaetter Places Tes timony of Maurel and Aler cier in a Bad Light. HE CAUSES EXCITEMENT. Former Secretary of War Meets Mau rel in Courtyard and Reproaches Him Bitterly. Lubori Once More Asks for I>u Paty de Clam—His I{e<]uest Denied Hy the Court —Immense Sensation Is Created—Maurel Curses and De nounces Judicial Formalities. Henens, Aug. 29.—The unexpectedly violent incident nt tlie Dreyfus trial in which Gen. Mercier and Col. Maurel were given the lie by Capt. Freystaet ter does not possess the importance tliat one might be disposed to attach to it. However great may have been the irregularities of the llrst trial they will change nothing lot- the present court-martial. It is evident that Col. Maurel is a weak man and seems rather overeau ious than willfully wicked, lie made a great mistake, when, desiring to prove to the Court that tin' coniiuunlca tious than willfully wicked, lie made no influence on the Judges, lie mention ed that he had only read onti docu ment. Half the truth is worse than a com plete lie. Col. Maurel found to liis cost when Capt. Freystaetter, a splendid soldier and another of Dreyfus's judges of 1894, swore that ail Hie documents were communicated to the Court. Col. Maurel's Jesuitical explanation was that he had only read one docu ment himself. He did not say that others had not read more. Ills explanation raised a show of wrath in the audience. For onee the audience was not antl-l>reyfns. The tactics of the Headquarters Staff by which it obtained the convict ion in 1894 are apparently disgusting to the majority of the people present. Col. Maurel. who could not survive the initial sin. made a confession. He had been led on dangerous ground by Maitre T.abori. and only made matters worse in the eyes of ids superiors. After the sitting Gen. Mercier met Col. Maurel in the courtyard and re proached him bitterly for having al lowed himself to be drawn out by La bori's persuasion. Col. Maurel com plained of and cursed the judical for malities and said he had foutfd him self drawn out before he knew where lie was. ('apt. Freystaetter's declaration con cerning the biographical notes on Drey fus showing treachery at the Polytech uei School, tin* military school, ami at Ihe Headquarters Staff was a feature In the cast' which brought a new light to everything. The revelation created a bad impression, showing the determi nation of the General Staff to obtain a conviction more deliberate than had been imagined. The sensation in the court was ex treme when Gen. Mercier came to the rescue of the Colonel by creating a diversion in saying that lie had caught ('apt. Freystaetter in a "flagrante de licto" of lying. But for the difference of ages a duel could not be avoided. Capt. Frey statet glared at Mercier. Maitre l.abori's intervention in de manding an independent medical ex amination of Du Paty de Clam seemed severe 1o the judges, but there is su preme interest in having his evidence now while all the Generals are at log gerheads concerning the contents of the secret palters communicated in 1894. Tie alone can settle this defi nitely. When the Court had refused the re quest Maitre l.abori's complaint that lie had to deal only with the dead or dying created an immense sensation. T.abori exclaimed: "Col. Sandherr is dead. Henry is dead. Pu Paty is un able to come." Truly tills affair is made up of cemetery corpses as well as reputations. May Cause a devolution. Itennes. Aug. 28. —If Dreyfus is con demned by the court-martial at Itennes the Socialists of Paris, it is averred, will start a revolution in 1 lint city. There is. also a threat that the Lycee at Itennes will be blown up by Italian anarchists. The latter threat lias greatly alarmed the authorities at Itennes. Photographs which Rertlllon used recently to prove Dreyfus the writer of the bordereau turn out to have been touched to make them fit Hertillon's theories. T.abori will demand that the originals be produced so that lie can show the truth of tills. Can't do Business in Indiana. Indianapolis, Aug. 28.—William IT. Hart.
