THE DREYFUS
COURT-MARTIAL
CContinued from First Page.)
fas to how he spent his time, showing
('that he did not inform himself about
"'the trials of the new gun brake.
General Risbourg recounted w T hat
Captain Le Brun-Renault said about
Dreyfus and this brought the latter to
his feet with a thrilling declaration. He
pointed out that the Captain shook
him by the hand when he returned to
the prison, which is at variance with
what General Risbourg recounted.
"Moreover," cried Dreyfus, "when a
charge has been hanging over
fa man's head for five years people
ought not to talk of explanations, but
should bring proofs. Otherwise, I cease
to understand the latter."
This indignant protest caused a deep
sensation in court.
Continuing, Dreyfus proceeded to
totally deny the story that he had made
a. confession to Captain Le Brun-Ren
ault.
A number of other witnesses were
heard, including M. Quesnay de Beaure
t paire's friend, Muller, who was respon
sible for the story that he found a mar
ginal note on the subject of the arrest
of Dreyfus on a newspaper in Emperor
William's bedroom at Potsdam. He tes
tified to this effect
The refusal of Colonel Jouaust to per
mit General Roget to be recalled, which
occurred during the proceedings, was
looked upon as indicating a desire to
shorten the case.
The court adjourned at 11:45 a. m.
for the day.
Following are the proceedings in de
tail:
At the opening of the proceedings
this morning, Colonel Jouaust ordered
that the evidence of Penot, a friend of
the late Colonel Sandherr, Chief of the
Intelligence Department, be read by the
clerk, which was done. This testi
mony, as given before the Court of
Cassation, set forth that Colonel Sand
herr told M. Penot that the brothers
of Dreyfus had offered 130,000 francs
to settle the case, adding that Sandherr
was so incensed at the proposal that he
Ordered them out of his office.
M. Demange, as a counter blast, read
ix note written by Sandherr the same
day the interview with the brothers of
Dreyfus took place. It appeared from
this note that the brothers imagined a
plot was being hatched against Captain
Dreyfus because he was a Jew. They
maintained the Captain's innocence,
and declared they would do everything j
in their power to obtain his reinstate
ment, saying that, if necessary, they j
would spend their whole fortune to ar
rive at the truth, and would do every
thing to that end.
Counsel pointed out that there were
Berious discrepancies batween M. Pe
not's written statement that money
was offered and Colonel Sandherrs
statement.
At the request of M. Labori, the
President of the court permitted M.
Linolle. a former official of the Gov
ernment, to testify. The witness said
he had also dined at M. Bodson's, in
company with Dreyfus, and declared
he did not believe Dreyfus was capable
of the crime for which he had been
M. Labori —Were there any foreigners
at M. Bodson's house?
M. Linolle—l do not remember.
M. Labori—Do you remember seeing
any foreign diplomats there?
M. Linolle—Not at all.
Besides M. Bodson was not of foreign
extraction. He was the son of an Or
leans vinegar merchant.
There was considerable stir in court
when Colonel Mauret. who was Presi
dent of the Dreyfus court-martial of
iv.*4. was called. He started by em
phatically denying that any communi
cation, verbal or written, was made to
the court during the course of the trial.
He said they only knew the case from
the documents in the dossier and the
testimony given. Then the Colonel,
saying he only desired to speak of mat
t"rs upon which his recollection was
clear, proceeded to declare that he had
nothing to say in regard to the expert
evidence of M. Pelletier. but he added
that M. Bertillon's testimony appealed
to the eyes and minds of the Judges.
It had been said that the Judges did
not understand it. but that was not
Regarding the evidence given at the
court-martial of ISO 4. witness said he
considered that Major Dv Paty de
Clam had only given the court a cir
cumspect repetition of his report while
the late Lieutenant Colonel Henry's
evidence would have been more forcible
Mauret continued, he believed Henry
had spoken without hatred or passion.
The prisoner's attitude at the trial
was correct and calm. His repeated de
nials and protests were far from as
tonishing the witness. They seemed
perfectly natural. The only letter
handed to Colonel Mauret during the
course of the trial was not brought by
Colonel Picquart. The letter, moreover,
was returned the same evening to the
officer who brought it.
Replying to M. Labori. Mauret said
he did not know General Mercier, and
had not seen him since the trial until
June last.
M. Labori —Can Colonel Mauret say to
what he attributes the secret com
munication of the dossier.
Colonel Mauret —I have not the
slightest idea
M. Labori —Can you tell the name of
the officer who brought you the letter?
Colonel Mauret—lt was Dv Paty de
Clam.
M. Labori—Were there many docu
ments in this secret dossier? Can you
Colonel Mauret—l only saw one of
them. I did not look at the others, be
cause my mind was already made up.
M. Labori—Had the other members
of the court also made up their minds?
Colonel Mauret—Yes.
M. Labori—Can you tell us how,
knowing, as the judge, that it was your
duty to seek conscientiously for infor
mation and to expect sincere com
munications from the public prosecutor,
that Is to say, communications setting
forth all the points in the case both for
and against the prisoner, you could be
of |he opinion that your mind was
wholly made up after reading a single j
document (prolonged sensation)?
Colonel Mauret said he failed to
clearly grasp the question, and M. La
bori repeated his query, whereupon the
witness replied that he could not an
swer, because If he did so he would
have to speak of the first document in
the dossier, "which convinced the court
of the prisoner's guilt."
At this point M. Labori said he would
like to confront Colonel Mauret with
«'aptain Freystmeter, another of the
Judges at the court-martial of 1894.
Fieystmeter was not present, and Col-
Mauret promised to wait a fVw
* days and give the Captain an oppor
tunity of attending.
A lively incident followed. M. La
bori, having asked leave to interrogate
General Mercier, the Government Com
missary, Major Carriere took occasion
to remark that while counsel had the
right to ask questions, he had no busi
ness to draw deductions, to which the
lawyer deftly replied that he had al
ways acted with a full knowledge of
the restrictions imposed upon counsel,
and that he had no need of lessons
from Major Carriere, and would not
accept them.
General Mercier was then recalled,
and it was noted that he had donned
his uniform for the first time. The im
pression thereby created was that the
General, expecting a hot cross-exami-,
nation, thought that his uniform '
would perhaps protect him.
M. Labori said he desired to know
if General Mercier admitted ordering
Colonel Mauret to communicate secret
documents to the court-martial of 1894.
General Mercier —I knew I did not
have the right to give formal orders to
that effect, but I gave moral orders in
a manner sufficiently clear. (Sensa
tion.)
Counsel proceeded to closely question
the General, referring to the "Dixi" ar
ticle in the "Libre Parole."
Mercier replied that he was so ac
customed to violence from the press
that he paid no attention to that ar
ticle.
Replying to further questions, the
General said that, when Dreyfus was
arrested, he knew of no other proof
against him than the bordereau. There
were, therefore, only suspicions, but it
was urgently necessary not to lose time
in arresting him in order to stop the
treasonable practices.
M. Labori here asked Colonel Jouaust
to secure the evidence of M. Papilland,
editor of the "Libre Parole," in regard
to the "Dixi" letter, in which the name
of Dreyfus was disclosed*as that of the
officer arrested for espionage.
As Colonel Jouaust hesitated, M. La
bori insisted upon the necessity for an
examination of Papilland, "in order to
reach the truth I am seeking for."
"The whole responsibility for this
case," counsel added, "I believe really
rests upon the late Lieutenant Colonel
Henry and Major Dv Paty de Clam."
Resuming his examination of General
Mercier, M. Labori asked him several
questions as to why he at first ascribed
the date of the bordereau to the month
of April. General Mercier said that in
1894 he was only acquainted with the
general reasons which existed to* be
lieving Dreyfus gufity, and had not
paid much attention to the details.
The General refused to reply to many
of the questions. For instance, he de
clined to say whether he had examined
the proofs against Dreyfus.
M. Labori —In short, you considered it
in the nature of a sensational move to
have Dreyfus prosecuted and sentenced.
Did you examine previously the charges
against Dreyfus?
General Mercier—l only examined the
nature of the documents betrayed.
M. Labori —Was it not necessary for
that purpose to fix the date of the bor
dereau ?
General Mercier—l do not think so.
Further, I declare that Labori is dis
cussing the whole trial of 1894. That
may have some interest from a histori
cal point of view. But since the Court
of Cassation quashed the judgment, it
seems to me that it is not for us now
to revert to the various features of that
trial.
M. Labori pointed out the contradic
tions in the evidence of officers of the
headquarters staff regarding the im
portance of the contents of the border
eau, and asked General Mercier where
Dreyfus could have obtained particu
lars about the automatic brake.
The General hotly objected to being
asked to repeat his evidence, and M.
Labori equally warmly said: "I am
only asking for definite statements."
General Mercier then said he thought
Dreyfus might have had cognizance of
the brake at Bourges, adding, "In any
event he had a better chance to obtain
such knowledge than Esterhazy could
possibly have had."
M. Labori —General Mercier says
Dreyfus might have had cognizance. I
desire to emphasize that expression. We
shall now prove that Dreyfus could not
have cognizance of the brake.
Counsel proceeded to demonstrate
how rigorously the secret of the con
struction of the brake was guarded, and
asked why, in 1894. the charges re
garding the Robin Melinite shells were
not dwelt upon.
General Mercier —That arises on the
simple fact that it was not known un
til 1890 or 1897 that information on
the subject was being divulged.
The passage at ai ms between M. La
bori and" General Mercier were follow
ed with the keenest interest. Both men
were wary and mutually suspicious of
each other, and there was considerable
acerbity. Colonel Jouaust at times find
ing it difficult to prevent the discussion
from wandering outside legal paths.
Continuing. M. Labori asked why
General Mercier did not have a report
prepared regarding the confessions
Dreyfus is alleged to have made to
Captain Le Brun-Renault.
Mercier —The question of the confes
sions was of no chance as a revision of
th.* case seemed impossible.
M. Labori —What does General Mer
cier think of Esterhazy and the part he
played ?
General Mercier —I do not know Es
terhazy, and I do not think about him
at all.
If. Labori —Did he know you at his
trial in 1896?
General Mercier —No.
Colonel Jouaust —General Mercier was
not Minister of War then.
M. Labori—This is most interesting.
General Mercier declares he knows
nothing of the trial of 1898.
General Mercier—l know nothing of
it. I leave that to the court-martial
which tried Esterhazy. I have only to
answer in court for my acts, and I re

fuse outright to you the right to ques- j
tion me about my thoughts. (Sensa
tion.)
Colonel Jouaust, addressing M. La
bori, said: "You are reverting to the
evidence of General Mercier?"
M. Labori—My object in interrogat
ing the witness is to revert to his evi
dence.
General Mercier—l protest against the
word "interrogatory," for I am not a
prisoner.
(Interrogatory in French law gener
ally applies to the examination of an
accused person by a magistrate.)
M. Labori —It is not a question of in
terrogatory. I used the word in the
most respectful sense. Will General
Mercier say what he means by the
charge preferred against the partisans
of Dreyfus, of having spent 35,000,000
francs —what was the sum used for?
The amount is simply ridiculous.
General Mercier—l might just as
well ask you. (Sensation.)
M. Labori —Do you mean to suggest
that it was spent in advertising and in
buying consciences.
General Mercier—l say nothing what
ever.
Counsel next wished to know why
the bordereau was communicated to
the court-martial of 1894, when it was
considered impossible to show the other
documents of the secret dossier.
General Mercier—Because the border
eau was not dated nor signed, and its
plans of origin could be concealed.
M. Labori pointed out that the place
of origin had been mentioned in court,
and then asked for explanations in re
gard to the perpetration of the 1894
forgery.
The cross-examination of General
Mercier became more and more heated,
and so lapid that it was difficult to
follow, and many of the questions were
confusing. As the questions of coun
sel touched upon the secret dossier and
a certain blue pencil, General Gonse,
General Roget, M. Gribelin and Major
Lauth also participated in the discus
sion, which at last degenerated into
a wrangle. The Government Commis
sary, Major Carriere, protested against
such discussion, and Colonel Jouaust
ordered silence. The Commissary said
an attempt was being made to show
there was a fresh forgery which was
used for purposes of comparisons, to
which M. Labori retorted that Major
Carriere was mistaken. The tendency
of these cross-examinations, he added,
was only to demonstrate the truth.
