THE EXCITING TRIAL of the morning sitting was a scene in which M. Labori. General Billet, Col. Jouaust and Captain Dreyfus partici- pated. Things had progressed quietly and even monotonously up to that time. "La Dame Blanche," with her famous pearls in her ears and around her neck, kept whispering to ber com- panion. Others who from the first had taken the keenest interest in every word uttered in the court seem- ed bored. and the intense heat in the room sent several asleep. Suddenly, when General Billet, in low, even tones, again brought out what' many de- clared is the General's last card, name-j ly, the complicity of Dreyfus and Ester-l ihazy, there was a remarkable change It! scene. M. Labori. in terrible excite- ment and waving his arms, protested in a ringing voice. Dreyfus, who had been sitting like a trtrtue, also jumped to his feet, despite the restraining hand that a genilarme placed umn his shoulder, and, with his Gee flaming with passion, said, addressing Colonel Jouaust: " I protest against this odious accusation." M. Lahori at the same time was demanding to he heard, Col- onel Jouaust, equally determined not to hear him, called out "Maitre Lahori, I refuse to allow you to speak." When; M. Labori finally gave up and sat down he was deathly pale and lrembl-i ing like a leaf. After some consultation, the judges retired to deliberate on the request. Their decision was awaited with a ten- sion that was painful. When the judges had returned, President Jouaust rose and announced that the court unani- mously refused to grant the defenee's request that the aid of foreigners be invoked. The announcement was for. lowed by a hub-hub in court, which? was quickly suppressed, and 'court was1 at once adjourned. I ucumrxy delicate position of all con- cerned in this matter, but we must ask that you also summon witnesses out- side of France [or us. We want Schneider, Fehwartziroppen, Paniz- zardi, and others to prove directly and emphatically that Dreyfus never had relations with foreign powers, and never communicated to them the papers mentioned in the bordereau. " We also ask that the Government secure, through diplomatic channels, documents bearing on the borderesu." Major Csrriere, for the prosecution, protested against the moral and ma- terial difficulties of such action, and said it would not assist the defence anyhow. When the 'toorss were opened for the public session, M. Labori read a brief statement to the effect that it was the consensus of opinion of the defence that while they had hitherto not called foreigners to testify, the Government having set the example, they would no longer refrain from doing so. ', Then turning to President Jouaust,' M. Labori, said: " We know the par- ticularly delicate position of all con- cerned in this matter, but we must ask that you also summon witnesses out- It As annOuncsd by President Jouauat, the first part of the session of the court-martial was secret.

Possibly, it he is again convicted there will be good grounds for an appeal and another trial. l The judges denied the request of M. ‘Labori tor permission to call as wit- nesses for Dreyfus military sttaches of foreign Governments who, it is " leged, had bought military secrets from Dreyfus. This is considered a“ bad blow for the accused, though M. Labori seems to entertain the hope that he will he able to get this evi- dence before the court by summoning the attaches to attend in their parson- al capacity. A feature of the session was the eloquent plea of a Senator of France for Dreyfus. It moved the specta~ tore to tears, and made an impression upon the judges. and the fact was brought out that papers had been passed to the court- martial in this trial without the know- ledge. of the defence. .Thie is a start- ling (act when .it is considered that Dreyfus obtained a new trial because he was convicted before on evidence that was communicated in secret to A des'patch from Renae: BtVS."-- Tuesday was a momentous one in the trial of Capt.

Many meetings have been held in the vicinity of the Lon- don docks, the speaker- expressing the determination of the men to remain idle until their demands have been granted.
