An outburst of cheers followed the
lawyer's appeal. .
M. Demnnge sank back into his seat
exhausted.
The cot-dons of troops and gendarmes
were maintained during the suspension
of'the ‘court. Saturday being market
day, the streets were full of people and
the crowds massed outside the lines of
troops who blocked every street lead-
ing to the Lycee.
The afternoon turned out bright and
warm. ’
The quarter of the town in which
the Lycee is situated appeared as
though in a state of siege. with pickets
of red trousers-d infantry. brass hei-
meted dragons and strong detachments

the court room. The judges entered
the court at 3 p. m.. precisely. They
were allsittremely serious. There was
a hash I the court room when Mnior
(‘nrriere arose and In a deathly calm
and dignified tone, made a short
speech, concluding with asking for
their imposition of the Verdict and
punishment of‘lSiii. .
iii. Demange replied with a few
words. and then Dreyfus flushed. and
said hoarseiy: "i affirm I am inno-
cent." ~-
The prisoner added that he had liv-
ed for his own honor and the honor of
ills wife and children, and after five
years of frightful torture. he was con-
vinced at last that he would at last re-
ceiwe justice.
When the court resumed its [session
at 3 o'clock, the crowds in the streets
seemed even less numerous than this,
morning. in any case, those who.
watched the passage of Dreyfus from
the prison to the court were not more
numerous than usual. i
Dreyfus marched with the same im-
the
passive face, looking neither to
right nor the left. .9.“

ANTI-DREYFI'S NEWSPAPERS.
I’nris, Smitcnlbcr ii—-’i‘hc anti-Drey-
fus newspapers here received con-
temptuouaiy the statement published;
yesterday in the ofliclni portion of thel
Ilcl'lln ltcichsntlzcigcr concerning thee
Dreyfus case.
The Echo dc Paris, says: "Tile
German government has made a last
attempt to save the traitor."
'l‘lle i'ctit .lournul says the court
martial will attache the same import—
ance to the statement as it would to
a declaration by Dreyfus himself.
it is asserted here that Colonel
.Iouuust, the president of the court
martial at “cones, in replying to n
despatcll frojl the minister of war.
General the arquis do fialllffef. ord-
ering him i to pass judgment in the

judgment would be given today.
ANY TIME A’i‘ 'i'iiid i‘tildd.
Those who are. conversant with the
use of globes know that all the merid-
ians of latitude starting from the.
equator converge toward and meet at}
the pole They know, too, that longi-l
tilde signifies time. and that difference
if longitude is difference in time. They'
know very well that yhcn it is noon in?
London it in Miami 7 o'clock in the;
morning in iloston. and that when it is
noon in San Francisco It is about 34
quarter past, :1 In the, afternoon in NewI
York. ,
Now. as the meridian of London ex-;
tcnds to the north pole. it necessarily
ensues that when it is noon in the Eng-
lish capital it must also be noon at the,
north pole. In a similar manner wheni
it. is noon at lloston. or'in San Francis-
co, or at Peking. or at any other place‘
situated in the northern hemisphere“
It follows that it must be noon at;
the pole. because all the meridians Of
those places unite at the north pole.’
Therefore it is noon all day long at the?
pole. - l
Thus there is an entire absence of‘
time at the pole. lint it would be Justl
an correct to say that it Is a plat-cl
Wlit'l‘t‘ there Is a preponderance of}
time. for it is practically any time of}
day during the whole 24 hours. or ln-i
llf‘f'tl through the year. in fact, a rcsi-g
(lent at the north pole could make it:
any tithe of day he might choose to se-T
