A WORD VCR COL. PICQU'ART. Col. Codiere then spoke up strongly for Col. Picquart, as a conscientious sol- dier and an honorable man, and threw light upon the situation which existed in the offices of the intelligenee depart- ment of the War Office, Re explained that Henry was jealous of Pi-0quart be- cause the latter was given charge of the statistical section, 'whir% Henry had hoped to get forhimself. Codiere pressed the belief that it was because of Picquart that Henry committed his forgery. Dreyfus spoke a feerwords at the con- clusion of Col. Codiiere's stateraents. He said the scene willoh preceded his arrest was so fantastie that it had, completely bewildered him, and merely- lbft a blunted impression on his meinory. The prisoner is now accastoraed. to his surroundings, and has apparently recovered his self-coaidence, as he speaks readily end' clearly and follows the witnesses closely, taking notes of various points of their depositions.

A despate.h from Orillia, says:— For some time bade Mr. Thomas Whipps, an old and respected resident of Oril- Major Leath first confronted Col. Codiere, and tried, to score against hirn by pointing out that Col.: Codiere was incorrect in saying there were anti- Semites on the general staff, since Co- diere himself was one., The colonel re- torted, turning the tables onthe Major, as, raising his hands, he cried:—"Quite true. I am an anti-Semite; but I never bore false witness against the Jew. I am an honest man." The audi- ence applauded these remarks. Col.Sodiere then adreinistered a If ell- d.eserved snub to Major Lauth, by re- marking that he, the Colonel, might be allowed to know more than Major Leath with reference to the work of the intelligence departnaent, since he, Colonel Codiere, replaced Col. Sandherr as chief of the department whenever Sandherr was absent; while Major Leath, the witness concluded, "was merely my assistant. My assistant, mark you." 1VIajor Lauth did not enjoy this little scene at all. , General Roget next confronted Colo- nel Codiere. The General assumed the same supercilious air which character- ized him when he appeared at the wit- ness bar, strutting about Dui stage in disdainful attitudes. His evidence, however, was not very striking, nor was that of Col. Fleur, or M. Gribelin, ar- chivist, who also contested minor points of Col. Codiere's deposition. Finally, General Mercier, who evi- dently confronted the 1s:rib:Less in order to demonstrate the baselessness of the stories of his intentions to fly, and to show his determination to fight to the last, confxonted Col. Codiere. The Gen - ears remarks were of small import- ance the Most interesting being his repetition of Col. Sa.ndlierr's opinion of Mathieu Dreyfus, when the prisoner's brother went to see the colonel, to ask for justice in behalf of Captain Drey- fus, Mercier admitted Sandlierr said: —"Mathieu :Dreyfus irapresses me as an honest man, who was prepared to make any sacrifiee to save his bro- ther." lia„ has been suffering from inelan4 cholla, with a tendency to suicide. tin gave up his farm on the outskirts of the town and came Mei town to live.

Roget, with his usaal shrewd- ness, seizedeupon X. Picot's statemeet that Col. Scheeider ,expressed. aetonisla- meet that French officers should have the bad, taste to question the word of foreign officers,. to mount the platform and, make a short speech in defence of the attitude of the French. officers, con- cluding with the remark: "I intervened because, when :Freneh officers are at- tacked, they. have the right to defend themselves." These words will be published all over France, and will tend to make Gen. Roget more popular with the army. Gen. Deleye repeated his testimony before the Court of Cassa4on, relating to the 120 short cannon hydro -pneu- matic brake and the Robin shell. Dreyfus, in reply, made a really clear stateraent, explaining that he saw the hydro -pneumatic brake once at Bdurges, one at the School of War, and. that he never saw it -used, -because while on the general staff, he was never present at firing practice.

M. de Freycinet, the former Minister of War, former Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Premier, followed Col. Codttre on the witness stand. The court room was packed to its utmost tapacity, as the distinguished French statesman began his deposition. The former minister is a vene.rable-booking man, with scanty snow-white hair and moustache, and was dressed in a blue serge suit. M. de Freycinet began by expressing the pain which he expen- ienc,ed at the trouble his conntry was undergoing, and, later, he said he re.. membered a conversation with Genere al Jamont, at which there was a re- ference to money coming from abroad in eupport of the Dreyfus agitation, "vehicle while disinterested in Prance, might not be so abroad." The states- = et, however, did not remember the details of the conversation, nor could he say if an amount was meetioned. M. de Freycinet then alluded to his feats the t "attacks on the chiefs bf the army might he prejudieitil diseipline, adding, "Might not these attacks lead to the disappearanee of discipline, and what would be the result if wa found eurselttes in difficulties with anothet aceintry V' In. short, M. de Freycinet delivered a patriotic speech, rather than a deposition, concluding with the words: "All the World will accept your verdict, which will open an era Of re,- ooncitiation."
