The Prisoner an Attentive Listener to What Wns Said in His Behalf Review of Evidence and Its Effect on the Judges Gendarmes Com mander Dies Mysteriously Kennes August 18 The trial by court martial of Captain Dreyfus was resumed at 7:25 o'clock this morning without incident Colonel Picquart con tinuing his testimony He spoke in the same loud fearless tone and com menced by declaring that he thought it necessary to reply to General Roget's veritable arraignment of him General Zurlinden General Billot General Roget and General Mercier were pres ent General Roget at the outset of Colonel remarks interposed and said he would reply to them Col onel Picquart proceeded to discuss the secret dossier as the main spring of the condemnation of Dreyfus He took up the consideration of the documents successively referring to the writers and persons addressed as and oc casionally treating of the "Cette Ca naille de document" Picquart said the Canaille case occurred between May 30 aitd July 17 1S96 "when on ac count of family bereavement I was able to pay very little attention to my offi cial duties In my absence Colonel Henry acted for me I devoted most of July to the journey of the headquarters staff which also prevented me from at tending to my duties I was therefore able to give only very intermittent at tention to the Canaille case Canaille returned a convict who contravened a decree of expulsion and had been caught red handed in another criminal act Colonel Picquart occupied the whole of the sitting with a presentation of his side of the case He spoke for five hours and then his voice becameeak During a brief suspension of the ccurt Generals Mercier Roget Billot and De Boisdeffre and other witnesses sauntered together animatedly discuss ing evidence Dreyfus was very attentive When Picquart con cluded both Roget and Mercier jumped up and asked to be heard contradictorily Colonel Jouaust asked Roget to speak first Picquart replied promptly to all questions At the conclusion of Colonel Pic deposition Generals Roget and Mercier asked to be allowed to be con fronted with the witness The con frontation only lasted a few minutes and did not prove sensational After Pic quart reiterated his statements the court adjourned until to morrow The dep osition of Colonel Picquart occupied nearly the entire session Maitre Mor nard who argued the case in behalf of the Dreyfus family for revision of the prisoner's sentence before the court of cassation against assisted Demange counsel for the defense REVIEWING THE EVIDENCE Picquart Did Much to Remove Unfavor able Impressions New York August iS The Rennes correspondent of the Tribune discuss ing yesterday's proceedings in the Drey fus court martial cables: Colonel Pic quart's clear penetrating voice carry ing with it an honest ring absolutely convincing to all English speaking spectators in the court room apparent ly did much to remove the unfavorable impressions retained by the court after Roget's wholesale affirmation of Cap tain guilt and in nocence Colonel Picquart like Roget as former under secretary of the third bureau of the general staff once had Captain Dreyfus under his orders and supervision and the following points were established by Colonel evidence which explained the military technicalities of the staff mechanism: Points Established Hirst That contrary to the testimony of Generals Mercier Cavaignac and Roget Captain Dreyfus could not have had access to information about the nodifications of plans for assembling the "troupes de couverture" (troops in case of mobilization to be thrown to ward the frontier so as to cover the actual mobilization) which is one of the subjects enumerated in the bordereau and Second That alo contrary to the evidence of Generals Mercier Cavaig nac and Roger Captain Dreyfus was by no means the only officer civil or military employe who could have ob tained the information indicated by other documents mentioned in the bor dereau Colonel Picquart showed for instance that the alleged mysteriou firing manual was not a state secret and that copies of it were given to any offi cer undergoing staff instruction who cared to ask for it Great was expressed at A XG another portion of Colonel testimony which disclosed the fact that some of the most important secret plans and documents were intrusted to the sole care of a few civil clerks and enlisted men and kept in a room at the war office accessible to visitors where Colonel Von Schwarzkoppen and other foreign military attaches were received once a week Court Under a Spell These facts developed with admir able clearness in Colonel tes timony made a marked impression on the court which is nevertheless still under the spell of the point blank swashbuckler affirmations of the galaxy of generals All the points in favor of the defence so far adduced by the tes timony of Bertullus and Colonel Picquart are purely presumptive The present phase of the case so far as can be ascertained by closely scrutinizing the countenances of the members of the court martial and by observing the questions put to witnesses is that evi dence of a more sledgehammer and crushing character than has yet been presented will be required in order to convince the court of Captain innocence Much is expected from the continuation of Colonel testi mony ANOTHER VICTIM VENOM That is What Anti Dreyfusards Say of Colonel Mysterious Death Xew York August 18 A dispatch to the World from Rennes says: Lieuten ant Colonel Lobe who has been in charge of the mounted gendarmes do ing duty about the court martial died suddenly Thursday The anti Dreyfus ites openly charge the Dreyfusites with being responsible for his death The local newspapers in their accounts of it print in big head lines: Vic tim of Dreyfusite Venom" It is ru mored that Colonel Lobe blew out his brains because of attacks in the news papers friendly to Labori since the shooting of the latter Another story is that death was due to heart disease It is practically impossible to get at the truth At military headquarters it is vehemently denied that Lohe commit ted suicide Colonel Lohe had been one of

severely commented upon Colonel Lohe took these attacks to heart and grew despondent to such a' degree that his health was affected Thursday dur ing the sitting of the court martial he was obliged to leave the room saying that he was too ill to remain until the close of the session Two hours later news of his death leaked out What serves to give an air of mystery to the happening was the conflicting state ments about the cause of death Two men who knew Lohe intimately said they noticed that his mind was grad ually being unbalanced by listening to the debates at the Dreyfus trial Two days ago they declare he said it was hopeless to struggle against the Jews who now have the upper hand and will avenge the race on "all of us officers of the Excited Over Death Rennes August 18 There
