Paris, Feb. 12. There were tho usual
crowds about the assises court o the
Seine yesterday when the fifth day of
tho trlnl ol MM. SCola and Perreux
commenced. M. Zola and Colonel Pie
quart wero greeted with hostile cries
on their arrival. The court was throng
ed. There are still CO witnesses to be
examined, and therefore the case will
continue most of next week.
Tho first witness was General Pel-
lleux. Tho general testified that Gen
eral Saussler, the former military gov
ernor of Paris, desired a public trial for
Major Esterhazy, but General Billot,
the minister for war, ordered that the
trial bo In secret. Nevertheless, the
witness added, the court martial re
fused to keep the entire proceedings
secret, therefore it was Impossible to
contend that Major Estorhazy was ac
quitted by order of the authorities.
The Dreyfus papers, added Colonel
Pellleux, wero sealed after tho con
viction of Captain Dreyfus In 1894, and
wero not opened until quite recently,
when the witness opened them In order
to re-examlno tho writing of tho bor
dereau. The papers had since been
sealed up, and had not been reopened.
Colonel Pellleux also said he desired to
emphatically deny tho statement of M.
I.o Blols that MM. Lo Blols and Henry
held a two hours' conference with him
In a private room.
General Pellleaux also said: "If tho
members of the court martial who
Bpllled their blood on battlefields while
others were no ono knows where had
been heard here, they would have In
dignantly repudiated the accusations
against hem. I, their chief, will be
their mouthpiece, and I alllrin that tho
court mnrtlal was regular."
On General Pellleux leaving the
stand M. Zola rose and exclaimed:
There are several ways of serving
Franco. You, general, made your cam
paigns, but I will bequeath to posterity
the name of Emlle Zola, and posterity
will bo my Judge."
Colonel Plcquart was then called and
narrated how ho had acquired frag
ments of a telegraphic card In 1890, and
concluded therefrom that Major Ester
hazy was corresponding wlthsusplclous
characters. His chiefs ordered him to
continue his Investigations, and he pro
cured some of Major Esterhazy's hand
writing, which, compared with certain
documents, led to the conclusion thai
Major Esterhazy was Improperly using
olllclal papers.
Colonel Plcquart was the best wit
ness for M. Zola thus far heard. He
made an excellent Impression upon al'
present In court. His evidence was-
very damaging to his superior offlcert
and favorable to Dreyfus, and It alsc
showed htm to have beeen tho victim
of persecution since he began his en
deavor to probe the truth. At the con
clusion of his evidence Colonel Plc
quart met with an enthusiastic recep
tion from the public.
Colonel Picqunrt emphatically denied
General Pellleux's statement that hf
had divulged an espionage nffalr to
outsiders. He candidly admitted send'
Ing an agent to Major Estoxhazy's
apartments, but he pointed out that at
tho tlmo Major Esterhazy's Hat was
advertised to let, and his agent only
brought him an unimportant letter,
which, however, served for a com
parison of handwriting. Tho agent,
however, reported that a number of
letters had been burned in a fireplace.
Colonel Plcquart added that he com
municated his suspicions of the guilt
of MaJoriEsterhazy to his chiefs, who
never said they had additional evi
dence of the guilt of Dreyfus beyond
what ho himself knew.
Colonel Plcquart said he knew a pu-
perlor officer whose name was mighty,
mentioned furnishing documents to a
foreign power, adding that he did not
wish to further disclose secrets while
he (the colonel) was still Investigating.
He continued: "Tho newspapers began
an agitation, and interpellations com
menced In the chamber, adding to my
difficulties. Then I was sent to Tunis,
where all letters reached me opened.
When I was summoned back to Tunis,
to attend the Esterhazy Inquiry, Gen
eral Pellleux treated me as the real de
fendant, refusing to listen to my
charges against Major Esterhazy."
Colonel Plcquart pointed out that
while the anti-Dreyfus papers publish

Say Dr. Greene's Nervura Cures.
The Associated Charities Thus Place Dr. Greene's
Nervura Above All Other Remedies to Cure,
a Real Blessing to the Sick and Suffering
The Remedy Which Vill Surely Make You
Strong and Well.
No greater proof of tho wonderful efficacy
and great curative powers of'Dr. Greeno's
Nervura blood and nervo remedy among tho
sick and suffering is possible, than tho en
thusiastic and glowing reports of tho As
sociated Charities concerning this wonderful
medicine and tho marvelous cures it is every
where effecting.
Mr. Geo. S. Wilson, General Secretary of
Associated Charities of Washington and tho
District of Columbia, and the best known
man in the country in tho field of charltablo
work, reports :
in our work of the Associated Charities or
Washington, wo havo dispensed Dr. Greeno's
Nervura blood aud nerve remedy anions tho
sick.
It has been gladly received and with vcrv
gratifying results. In ono caso especially of
nervous debility tho report is very eucourag
njr. suo was also mulcted with dyspepsia.
"I am ulcascd to say that all rcnorts that
havo come to my knowlcdgo havo been
did not publish a Vac Bimile ot ne tet
ter written by Droyfus at Major du
Clam's dictation, "as It would have
been too embarrassing," the witness
Implying that a comparison would havo
tended to show that Dreyfus was not
the author of tho bordereau.
The witness concluded with stating
that tho Intrigue of tho officials of
which he had been the victim had been
aimed to rievent him from demon
strating the guilt of Major Esterhazy.
M. Laborie then questioned Colonel
Plcquart regarding the secret docu
ment, and the witness said:
'I knew of the existence of the se
cret document, but I only saw It when
General Pellleux showed It to me."
The witness could not give any fur
ther particulars on account of "profes
sional secrecy."
General Pellleux was recalled and
denounced Colonel Plcquart for search
ing Major Esterhazy's rooms, where
upon M. Laborie quickly retorted: "But
you yourself had Colonel Plcquart's
rooms searched."
This sally was greeted with loud ap
plause, and when quiet was restored
a heated altercation occurred between
M. Laborie and General Pellleux.
Major Itavary was the next witness.
M. Laborie reproached him with Im
properly conducting the Esterhazy In
quiry, to which the major replied:
"Military Justice Is not conducted like
yours."
M. Zola's carriage on leaving the
Palais de Justice was followed by a
knot of people, shouting "Death to
Zola," who could bo heard through the
carriage windows exclaiming, "The
cowards." Tho police dispersed a
thousand people who were burning
pro-Zola Journals. Many arrests were
made, but the persons arrested were
quickly liberated.
Consumption Positively Cured.
Mr. R. II. Greeve, merchant, of Chil-
howic, Va., certifies that he had consumption,
was given.up to die, sought all medical treat
ment that money could procure, tried all
cough remedies he could hear of, but got no
relief; spent many nights titling up in a chairj
was induced lo try Dr. King's New Discovery,
and was cured by use of two bottles. For
past three years lias been attending to business
and says Dr. King's New Discovery is

Incident growing out ot tho publication
of Senor Dupuy Do Lome's letter to
Senor Cnnneljas may be regarded as
settled. This has been brought about
by a short cablegram sent by Minister
Woodford, from Madrid, In which he
Btates that the minister had resigned
and his resignation hnd been accepted
before he (Mr. Woodford) presented
tho request of the United States that
he be recalled. Tho officials here feel
an Interest In learning the details of
the happenings In Madrid on Thurs
day, and are wnltlng for Mr. Wood
ford's promised full report. But un
less this should contain some statement
that Is not now expected there Is no
disposition on tho part of the govern
ment to protract tho closing of this
unpleasant Incident, and it Is not ex
pected that anything In the nature of
a demand for an apology will be made.
If a graceful disclaimer should come
that will be taken In tho spirit InJ
which It Is made: otherwise the mat
ter will be dropped, and the relations
between tho state department and the
Spanish legation will run smoothly
once more through the medium of
Senor Du Bosie, the first secretary and
now charge d'affaires. It can be said
for the president that he shows little,
personal concern In the matter as it
stands, and Is not disposed to pursue
Mr. De Lome In any personal spirit,
and with this spirit In the head of the
administration the cud of the affair
may be said to have been reached.
The retiring minister Is actively en
gaged In preparing his personal effects
for shipment and leave taking of his
friends and diplomatic associates In
Washington. Some of his chattels were
sent to New York yesterday. It Is the
present purpose of Senor De Lome to
leave this country early next week. He
will probably sail by ono of the French
liners to Havre, and thence will proceed
direct to Madrid.

Havana, Feb. 12. La Lucha, In an
editorial entitled, "Killed by a Letter,"
severely criticizes Senor Dupuy Do
Lome, who "fell a suicide from a high
position, devoid of shrewdness and dip
lomatic qualities." It says: "His traffic
fall will prevent his ever being appoint
ed to any high position. His post he
had long held without suitable quali
ties, entrusting to a letter. In a most
dangerous period, ideas of government
which It Is probable are In the thought
of most prominent Spanish politicians.
"If he had not presented his resigna
tion the government at Madrid would
have compelled him to resign, not only
for speaklnt; of Its plans, but for reveal
ing Its ultimate Intentions, to say noth
ing of the considerations affecting
President McKlnley and some of the
most prominent men of the neighbor
ing republic whom he bragged he could
deceive and dominate.
"By tho sarcastic way ho spoke of
Americans when he passed through
Havana we were led to fear that he
would meet with trouble, and we be
Heve that the letter which has been the
cause of the fall of Senor Dupuy Dp
Lome will be the shroud of his po

The Union Constitutional says that
Senor Do Lome Is an able diplomat.
and expresses thp opinion that his re
signation, In the circumstances, will
only make him more fully ripe, by re
cognizing the CuRin republic and In
sisting that the freedom and Independ
