MAYOR ENSOR WILL HOLD ON
South Omaha's Ohief Ixecntiva Says Ho
Will Hot Resign.
WILL IGNORE CITY COUNCIL'S ' DEMAND
firrtn tlmt the Action of the Mu
nicipal Father * id Simply thu
llcxult or n Political
right.
The notion of the city council Monday
night In demanding the Immediate resigna
tion of the mayor caused a stir on the streets
} C3tcrday and the subject was ono of general
comment. Of course the nntl-Knsorltes wcro
loud In their demands tor an Immediate
resignation , while on the other hand , Mayor
Ucbor's friends declared that the fight would
continue , ns the hoped for resignation would
not be forthcoming.
AS Mayor Ensor was not present at the
meeting of the council when the resolution
icqucstlng his resignation was passed , ho
was not aware of the full text of the reso
lution and the proceedings until ho had
caVlcJ nt The Bco office and obtained a copy
of the Dally Bee. After reading the report
of the council proceedings , the mayor made
the fcllowlng statement :
"This action of the city council la evi
dently duo to the defeat of the contestants
In the convention Monday In which < ho op
position was absolutely Ignored. I posi
tively will not resign , as 1 was elected by
the people to serve for a term of two years ,
and I propoao doing It. In regard to the
dlfilculty about the city attorney , the facia
ore well known , and It Is In the power of the
council to ask for the resignation of the at
torney ana If It Is not forthcoming the coun
cil ciny discharge him. I have no voice In
the waiter , as the attorney was confirmed
by the council to servo for the teugth of my
term and In my opinion the council only
can remove him. As to the bawdy house on
Twc'nly-aevenlh street , I am not aware per
sonally that there Is such a place. If there
Is such a resort It Is contrary to law for the
council to place a license tax upon such .1
house. My understanding of the law Is that
thu council has no right to license houses
of Ill-fame.
llrlbery Puml of . ' ! , ( ( ) ( .
"As regards < the saloon opening It Is a'wcll
known fact that certain members of the
council did try to heM the brewers and
saloonkeepers up and did succeed In raising
a fund of $ SGOO , which was offered me by
Councilman Johnston , and which I refused
to accept. I can prove by every saloon man
who had money up for 'the ' purpose of brib
ing mo In this matter that I advised them to
take down their money , as It would do no
good , and I understand that my advice was
followed. As to the brewers there was never
any overtures made on my part In any way
whatsoever for money conalfleratlon or other
wise for mo to allow the saloons to reopen
on Sunday. The city council , with the ex
ception of Mr. Bennett and Mr. Kelly , who
was out of the city , bitterly opposed me In
the closing of saloons on Sunday , and re
fused proper support when I asked for It.
After I found that to keep the saloons per
manently closed on Sunday was a far greater
task than I anticipated , and that Hearty
every business man disapproved of my
course , there was nothing left for mo to debut
but to quit , and It was after the saloons
were reopened on Sua-lay that the council
authorized mo lo employ moro police and
to keep them closed at any cost. The solo
aim of the council appears to be to antago
nize mo In connection with my attempt to
prevent 'tho selling of liquor dn Sunday.
During the time the saloons were closed
some fifty odd arrests were made for viola
tions of toy Sunday closing order , and In
each paso there was absolute proof against
the parties arrested. In every Instance the
police Judge discharged these men , regard-
leas of < the evidence. The records wilt bear
me out In this statement. I have no apology
to offer to the city council , nor to the citi
zens of South Omaha , or any ono else for
my conduct In this matter. This Is a politi
cal flght between Ed Johnston and myself ,
which has been going on for four years. Aa
Johnston has been worsted he is casting
about for some means of getting even and
also for gaining control of municipal affairs
next spring. "
Bnirdy Iloime 1'nyn Xo Fines.
In connection with the ibawdy house men
tioned In the resolution of the council It
might be stated that formerly this house
paid Into the city treasury a certain sum
per month , the same as Is done In other
cities , but no flncs have 'been ' assessed since
the first or second month of this year. In
hla monthly reports Judge Babcock has
mentioned the fact that no fines had been
turned In from this house , and It Is under
stood that he did this In order to place blm-
eelf right before the council and the public.
A resolution passed the council directing
the chief of police to collect about $125 In
back flues or close the place , but the chief
paid no attention to the resolution , as ha
received his orders from the mayor , and not
from the city council. As regards the rais
ing of the $3,600 fund to influence the
mayor In connection with the Sunday
opening of saloons , this matter was gone
Into In detail In The Bee a short time ago ,
and hardly needs repeating at this time , as
nearly everyone Is familiar with the cir
cumstances.
On the other hand the members of the
council who signed the resolution and voted
for It , assert that they have the mayor
"dead to rights" nod propose to show him a
thing or two. They further assert that
something of on Interesting nature will oc
cur at the meeting of the council to be held
next Monday night. Wear of the Third
word appears to bo the cnly councilman
who la standing up for Ensor In this flght.
Fltle Is away on vacation and unless sent
for will probably not return for next Mon
day's meeting. As Fltlo bag always voted
with the Johnston clique , It Is right to sup
pose that ho will be against the mayor In
this matter so that according to the way
matters stand now , Mayor Ensor has but
one supporter among the councllmen.
of Witter MiiliiN Dc-Hlri-il.
Ilesldents in the vicinity of Eighteenth
and I streets are clamoring for city water ,
and a petition Is now In the bands of the
city clerk asking that a fire hydrant bo lo
cated at the Intersection of Eighteenth and
I streets. The nearest city water | s one
block away , and wells and cisterns have to
.bo used by tboae 'who ' are 'beyond ' the east-
era termlnua of the water mains. It Is un
derstood that at the next meeting of the
council several hydrants will be located In
different parts of the city In order to ac
commodate residents who are still without
city water. 80 much building has been done !
of late that Improvements In this line are I
constantly being asked for , and members
of the council are urged by constituents to

Within the next day or two , Clty Clerk
Carpenter will advertise for bids for the re
pairs to the west approach to the L street
viaduct. It Is expected that' ' the work will
proceed with as little delay as possible In
order that the ibrldge may be in shape for
winter travel. Some of the members of the
council are opposed to paying out money for
these repairs as they consider that the rail
roads should do this work nt their own ex
pense. The law , however , compels the
railroads to repair only 800 feet of approach
and this has 'been ' done. This leaves the
city about 300 feet to repair. If attended to
now the coat will not amount to a great deal ,
but If neglected , extensive repairs will have
to .be made. In the resolution ordering the
clerk to advertise for bid * the city attorney
Is Instructed to commence suit Against the
stock yards and the Union Pacific to re
cover the cost , It In his Judgment the city
has any claim. The law Is explicit on this
subject mid It Is hnrdly probable lhat the
city can recover , even should suit bo com
menced. The railroads are now repairing
the CJ street bridge , but this same question
will not come up as the entire bridge will
be repaired , there being no lengthy ap
proach.

Reverting next to Lieutenant Colonel
'Rollin's evidence and the testimony Rollln
had given Spy Gueneo M. Lauori read tuo
evidence of Gueneo before the court of
cassation , pointing out after such evidence
none of the Information which Guoneo sup
plied In 1891 could bo maintained against
Dreyfus.
Replying to a question as to the character
of Lajoux nnd the confidence which could
bo placed In his statements , General Gonso
handed In n report giving Lajoux the worst
possible character.
Dreyfus then made a stntement regarding
a passage of Rollln's evidence referring to
the searches made In his ( Dreyfus' ) resi
dence In 1894. "Everything , " said the
prisoner , "was seized without exception. "
Colonel Jouaust : "Some of the pages
were mleslng of your nolca laken at the
lectures given by the military college ?
That has been the subject of remark. " -
Dreyfus : "No. my colonel , not In 1894. "

WItiieNM with Short Memory.
Ferret , a former secretary of the ministry
of war , who Is alleged to have caught Drey
fus prying Into the work of EOUIO of hU
fellow-officers during their absence , testi
fied that towards the end of 1893 , on re
turning from his lunch at an hour the
officers wcro usually out. ho found Dreyfus
In tbe fourth bureau standing with a
utranger , a civilian , al the table , consulting
n document which seemed to Iho witness to
bo connected with the transport of troops ,
M. Demange "Why did you not glvo this
evidence In 1891 ? "
Witness said ho regretted no had over
looked It. Besides , ho added , It was not
his business to suspect bis chiefs ,
M. Demange "The court will form Its
own opinion of this five years' silence. "
M. Laborl asked when the witness first
mentioned Ihese facts. '
Ferrel "I do not remember. " ( Murmurs. )
M. Laborl "Try. It would bo Interesting
to have an explanation. "
Ferret "lt was about a year ngo. "
The prisoner protested against such state
ments , which , ho said , were nothing but
"vile Insinuations" collected by a former
minister of war. ( Great sensation , )
"I riover went Into my ofllce , " continued
Dreyfus , "al any olher llmo lhan Ihe hours
of duly. I declare II was Impossible , or al
leasl most difficult , for a civilian to enter
the offices of the ministry of war. "
Dreyfus added that while bis wife was at
Houlgate , Normandy , In August or'eptem -
ber. 1894 , he happened to go to his office
at noon , though the usual hour was 2
o'clock.
Colonel Jouaust questioned Dreyfus rela
tive to his hours of duties and the dif
ficulty of introducing a stranger Into the
offices , after which General Gonso asked for
permission to speak In order to complete
his evidence. Ho said he received a teller
yesterday evening from M. Lecbateller ,
chief engineer of the Department of Roads
and Bridges , In which Lecbalelier said :
"During six or seven years I had a permit
for the ministry of war and went there
at a hundred times. On another occasion I
was accompanied by a friend who entered
without any other formality than opening
the gate and ualulluc tbe senlry.
( Laughler. )
General Gonse read another letter of
similar purport and Dreyfus said ;
"Tho rulu waa strict. The letters only
prove that certain persona did not ob
serve It. "
M. Dcraange : "H also proven that since
the ministry of war was EO easily entered
others besides oftlccrs could easily procure
Information. " ( Murmurs of dissent. )
SIIJ-H Drejfin Grew Cnrclcim.
Lieutenant Colonel Berlin , who was chlot
of Dreyfus' entry Into the department , testi
fied to the prisoner's great zeal at first nnd
said that this , later , was replaced by great
carelessness In matters of detail.
"In face of this , " said Berlin , "I gradually
censed to consider him an assistant. He left
nn enormous amount of uncompleted work.
Thus , after devoting much time to Initiating
him Into the secrets of the concentration ot
troops on the eastern railway system In tlmo
of war , I did not receive any service In ex-
chanue. "
Witness nddcd' that the rerorts ho gave
Dreyfus when he left were such that ho
could never enter the railroad depnrtmcnl.
Proceeding , witness reiterated lhal Drey
fus was In a position to acquaint himself
with the questions of the eastern railroads'
mobilization nnd described n conversation
which he had with Dreyfus In 1S93 , which ,
in the opinion of the witness , threw a curi
ous light on Dreyfus' Idea of the fatherland.
Lieutenant Colonel Berlin also spoke of
the comparisons of the handwriting nnd
then , turnlnz lo tbe prisoner's attitude at
the court-martial of 1891 , ho said It painfully
Impressed him and ho was convinced of the
guilt of Dreyfus by the evidence of M. Bcr-
tlllon. When the witness told the minister
of war ot his Impressions the latter sent him
to President Caslmlr-Perler , to whom Berlin
cxpatlnted on the Injury which would result
from the treachery of Dreyfus nnd the barm
which might result If ho escaped.
According to Berlin , M. Caslmlr-Porler np-
pearod much Impressed and wllness gained
the Impression that he was "speaking to n
soldier who regarded the niaUrr from the
same point of view as himself. " ( Sensa
tion. )
Referring to his Interview with M.
Scheurer-Kcstner ( former vice president of
Iho senate ) , "whom I always regarded as an
honorable man , obeying the dictates ot bis
conscience , " Llcutcnanl Colonel Berlin con-
Irovorted parl of Colonel Plcquart's evidence
on the subject.
At the conclusion of his deposition , the
witness declared he never ordered Dreyfus
to procure Information concerning the entire
network of railroads , "which the prisoner
sought to acquire from Captain Culguet. "
Replying to questions on the subject of
the alleged untimely visit of Drayfus to his
olllce , witness said Ibat the plans were kept
In his olllce and Ihnt Dreyfus Knew the word
necessary to open the press containing
them. "
M. Scheurer-Kestner , It also appeared ,
often told the witness ho was unnblo to
fathom the affair , and finally Berlin was
advised to have a talk with the minister
ot war.
Hour of Jtintlcc In ComliiK.
At this Junclure the clerk of the court
road n letter from M. Scheuref-Kestnor , ex
cusing himself for being unnblo to attend
the session of the court. The letler re
ferred to tbe stcpfi of Mnthleu Dreyfus to
secure the rehabilitation of his brother and
described tbo writer's Investigations and
how It was only when Esterhazy's hand
writing was shown him that his hesitation
ended. The letter also described the mo
ments of anguish the writer experienced
during the course ot the campaign nnd
dwelt on the opinion expressed in thu Judg
ment of the court of cassation and the
confessions of Eetcrhazy that he was the
writer of the bordereau. In conclusion the
letter said :
"You will permit an old Alsatian , mon
sieur Iq president , to express the sentiment
that the hour ot justice will eoon strike
In the Interest of the army , of Justice , and
of the country. " ( Great sensation. )
Replying to M. Demange , Lieutenant
Colonel Bertln further explained his connec
tion with M. Schourer'-KeBtner. ' Al Ihe
manouyers , that year , witness told General
Billet of the action M. Scheurer-Kestner
was _ taklpg , and , the general replied :
. " 'Tellhlm _ not to do anything. 1 shall ap
peal to iny old friend. ' "
"I telegraphed to M. Scheuror-Kestner tic-
cordlngly , " said 3ertln , "for I could nol
enter Alsace , the Germans having brutally
forbidden mo to go thre. "
M. Demange remlndiit ] IDA witness of a
remark he made * o M. Ferdinand Scheurer-
Kestner , namely : "There are only five of
us who know this terrible secret. One out
of the five must betray It befoie you can
know anything. "
Counsel asked If the secret was not that
Dreyfus was Innocent.
41. Bertln "Oh , no , u.V *
M. Demango "Acco.-dlng to the terms of
the conversation ? "
Lieutenant Colonel Bertln.energetically )
"No , no. And I will tell you. 1 have
never concealed two things from the mem
bers of the Seheurer-Kestner family. Firstly ,
M. Scheurer-Kestner would be doing a great
service It his efforts resulted In establishing
the Innocence of a man wuo had worn the
uniform of a French udlecr. Secondly , that
I was convinced of the iullt of Dreyfus. "
( Sensation. )
M. Demango "Did you not once make tbo
following remark : 'This Jew was thrust on
headquarters and we had to get rid at
him. ' "
JewiNli Question TTevcr IlnlMcil.
Lieutenant Colonel Bertln "No , never. I
absolutely deny It. When I was In the war
office the Jewish question was never raised.
Dreyfus was regarded as a comrade. I con
fided all my secrets to him and gave him
the password of my locker. "
A number of official reports were hero
read , unanimously recognizing Dreyfus as
a brilliant officer , who was anxious to suc
ceed. The reports ot the headquarters' staff
alone cast Imputations upon the prisoner's
character.
M. Laborl asked the court's leave , wllh
Iho permission ot Lieutenant Colonel Ber
tln , to Question the witness on a delicate
subject. Ho referred , continued counsel , to
ft remark made .by Berlin at a dinner nl
which M. Laborl was present , at the house
ot a mutual friend a fortnight after the
degradation of Dreyfus.
"I have absolute confidence In the good
faith In Lieutenant Colonel Bertln , " added
M. Laborl , "nnd I am convinced thai If his
recollections are exact enoush ho will not
hesitate to reply. "
Berlin asked the lawyer < o mention the
name of the mutual friend who cave the
dinner , M. Laborl whispered the name and
the witness nodded assent.
M. Laborl "Do you remember that you
wore among the first lo suggeel to me be
lief In the Innocence of Dreyfus ? "
Berlin "No , no , It Is Impossible. "
M. Laborl "Does the witness remember
that during the course of the dinner he be
came excited in talking about Dreyfus ? "
The lleulenant colonel pointed out that
the terms of Intimacy which prevailed al
the dinner tnusl bo taken Into account , re
minded M. Labor ! that be was an old friend
of his father's and wondered whether coun
sel was still the same man who , taking the
witness' hands on the occasion of the dinner ,
said : "I will never forget what you have
done for my father. "
"I do not foreet the words , " Bald M ,
Laborl , his voice trembling at the recollec
tion ; "but I ftm referrlne specially lo the
eomowhat irtrong remarks you made ugalnst
Mftltro Dcranngo. I nm nol seeking to pro

Ohl ) .
M. Bertln If I can remember I will re
ply. 1 am hero to tell the truth nnd I will
tell nil I know. I nm here for the truth ,
like you.
M. Laborl When I asked why you Raid
that , you re.nllcd that M. Dcmnngo had nl-
ready defended ether spies and that ho was
an official defender.
Lieutenant Colonel Bertln admitted the
truth of M. Lnborl's statements.
M. Laborl You should bo sure regard
ing the Intervention of Maltrc Dcmangc , be !
cause a barrister of his standing Isn't ap
pointed officially unless there arc Important
reasons for It.
Counsel proceeded to relate how , when he
left Lieutenant Colonel Bertln he discussed
the foregoing conversation with his wife nnd
wondered what security could bo found In
the cnth or JudEtncml of men who readily
believed Ihlngs so ridiculous.
"My belief In Iho Innocence ot Dreyfus , "
M. Laborl ndded , "began lhat day. I give
you my word of honor thai Lieutenant Col
onel Bertln admitted ho hod a grudge
nealnst Demance , saying It was because ho
defended Dreyfus badly by persisting In
making Dreyfus deny nil the charges against
him. Lieutenant Colonel Bertln evidently
thought Maltro DcmanEO ouchl to have
Joined with 'the others in trying to convict
Dreyfus. " ,
Colonel Jouaust here declared the Incident
closed. M. Demanee , however , Interposed :
"You will , however , allow mo lo nnpear on
the scene. " ( Laughter ) .
Continuing. M. Dcmnngo said he pre
ferred to speak In the 'presence of Lieuten
ant Colonel Bertln , adding : "An the trial
of Dreyfus was held behind closed doors
Lieutenant Colonel Bertln could not know If
I defended him well or 111. "
Bertln I heard of the epccch for the
defendant afterwards.
M. DcmaiiBo then said that the fact that
ho wns chosen lo defend spies was proof
of his discretion.
K the Auntrlim Woman.
A brief adjournment followed , and when
court resumed Major Qendron wns called
to testify regaardlng the Austrian woman ,
Mine. Dely. Ho Bald ho had laken tea at
her home on a single occasion and that
ho thereafter confined himself to exchang
ing a few polite worda with her when they
met , though the gallant officer asserted that
Mme. Dely urged his visiting her house. Ho
thought thai nellher Iho age nor the beauty
ot the lady accounted for her stylish mode
of dress , nor for the mystery of her ex
istence , nor for the presence of her child ,
whoso father was unknown to all. This , It
appears , told the witness that ho was dealIng -
Ing with nn adventuress. He heard thai she
had fine acqualnlanccs. Including Dreyfus ,
and In view of the fact that In auch com
panionship Dreyfus was liable to commit
some Imprudent action , witness Informed
Lieutenant Colonel Berlin of his fears.
Referring to the organization of the In
telligence decartment Major Gendron bald
that ho had viewed with deep pain the
dcstrucllon of all Ihe work Iho "great
patriot , Colonel Sandherr , " had done in de
fense of the country. "It IB a great mis
fortune , " he added , "that such a man no
longer exists. "
Major Bcsse , Captain Boullouger , Colonel
Jeannel and Major Masltre nil testltleJ. In
the main their evidence was uululorcstlug
and largely surmise or hearsay , but it was
distinctly biased and Intended to bolster up
the assertions of the generals.
Colonel Jeannel , during the cross-examin
ation , threw some light on the question ot
the firing manual , which he Hiild he lent
Dreyfus In 1894.
M. Demangewanted to know the exact
date and Colonel Jcanuel said he 'believed '
it was In July , adding : "In 1394. "
Point Made for Dreyfus.
That would have b en a point calculated
to weaken the proofa against Dreyfus.
counsel pointing out that Colonel Jeannel
was not examined In 1894 , und asking the
cause of this Irregularity. The date of the
bordereau was given as April of that year ,
or before Colonel Jeannel lent tin Firing
Manual. The prisoner eald lhat In 1891 ho
Insisted at both the preliminary examination
and at the court-martial that Colonel Jcan-
nel should bo examined.
"I obtained no satlsfacllon , " Dreytus
added , "I was , however , sure of my fools. "
Colonel Jeannel'B memories rausl be playing
him false. Perhaps Iho confusion arises from
Iho fad lhat I asked him to lend mo the
German Firing Manual. "
Colonel JouauBt Do you remember that ,
Colonel Jeannel.
Jeannel No.
M. Laborl expressed surprise that It was
not < lhoucht necessary In 1894 to examine a
witness who. today , "out of pure caprice
and for 'tho convenience of the prosecution , "
had become an excellent witness. The court ,
counsel added , would deduct Its own opin
ion.
Durlnc the course of ithe subsequent pro
ceedings a lollor written , by Captain Lemon-
ier was read repeating an alleged conversa
tion with Dreyfus , when the latler Is said
to have staled that he followed the Ger
man maneuvers at Mulhouse. The prisoner
briefly controverted some of Colonel Jean-
nel's statements , but said he would not con
descend to reply to Captain Lemonler's as
sertions , nor to M. Beaurepalre's , but , ho
added , ho was extremely sorry to see nn
officer utilize the utterances of a witness
whoso Immorality was acknowlodced.
J.nut Wltneim of the Dny.
The last witness of the day , Captain
Malstro , read a letter from an officer now
at Nantes , affirming that while ho was on
the ceneral staff as a probationer , at the
eamo llmo as Dreyfus , the latler lold the
officer of his vlsll to Alsace-Lorraine and
recounted how ho had followed the German
army maneuvers , on foot and on horseback ,
This was Intended to show Dreyfus was
not tolling the truth when he denied not
having been preecnt at any time during the
maneuvers at Alsace-Lorraine. Another
part of Captain Malstre's evidence proved
to bo In favor ot Dreyfus.
In contradlcllon of olher wllne&ses who
declared Dreyfus frequently stayed late at
the office prying Inlo other officers' duties
Captain Malstre declared thai Dreyfus was
disinclined to work und left often before
Iho regular lime.
The prisoner , In Ihe tone of calm modera
tion which today distinguished his utter
ances , replied lo Captain Malstro'g allega
tions and added with reference to M.
Beaurepalro's accusations that the lutter'a
Immorality would , ere long , be demon
strated before the court-martial. The court
