WASHINGTON , Sept. 4. The cnblnot today -
day was In sesulon for moro than two houis
and ft variety of matters which have accumu
lated during the president's nbseuco were
dlscuescd.
It was Secretary Hoot's first nttendnnce ,
the other members present being Secre-
tnrli'e Hny , Gage , Hltchcoiik and Wilson.
President Schurinan of the'Philippine com
mission , waa also present , by Invitation'and
made a comprehensive statement of thu
situation In the Islands. It Is understood
that within the next two or thrco days lit ;
will niako a statement to the press , which
will cover his observations on the Islands ,
and later will make a formal report to the
president covering the subject In detail.
This report , however , will not bo made
until the other members of tbe commission
nrrlvo In Washington , and not until after
Admiral Dewey's return.
It Is understood that Mr. Schununn takes
o hopeful view ot the situation in the Phil
ippines and has no doubt that with our in
creased forces wo will bo able to make com
paratively abort work of Agulnaldo nnd the
Insurgent forces. He stated that although
Aguinaldo is the loader ot a very strong
faction of the natives , he does not by on >
means fairly represent the entlro popula
tion , a considerable number appearing to be
more or less indifferent as to the outcome
of the Insurrection. Although the work
ot the Antl-Imperallst lenguc has had no
considerable Influence among the soldiers In
'
our army , 'Mr. Schurman said it certainly
hnd given great encouragement to Agulnaldo
and hie followers.
The influence of the lenpuo In this country ,
Mr. Sohurman thought , has been mngntfled
by the insurgent leaders and hns bad the
effect of giving thorn heart and n strong
hope of ultimate success.
Policy Aot Vet Formed.
Commenting on the published statement
that President McKluley had formulated a
plan for the government of the Philippines
after the Insurrection shall have been put
down , it was stated by a member of the cabi
net that no definite plans whatever hnd been
made by the president , nor Is be at the
present time etvlng the subject much
thought. Ho will co-operate with the com
mittees of congress when that matter comer ;
up for sattlement. but it is certain that ho
will not formulate nny hnrd nnd fast sys
tem of iovernmen't ' and insist upon its
adoption , |
The subject of relieving General Otis
from a part of his duties ns the head of both i
the civil government nnd the military forces |
was not mentioned at today's meeting , although - {
though there Is a growing Impression that
ho may be put at Jhe head of the civil gov
ernment and relieved of tbo responsibility
of the military operations.

, nnd , In fact , his gencrnl nppcnr-
anre did very llttlo credit to the Servian
royal house , to which It IB alleged he be
longs. His letter to Colonel Jounust offer
ing his testimony stated that , having been
mixed up In poltlcal troubles In Austrla-
Hungory , he has been obliged to- soon
refuse In France , where he hnd a friend
who waa a high official of the foreign office
of a central European power. This friend ,
the witness said , told him that certain for
eign agents In France might denounce him ,
the first name mentioned being that tit
Dreyfus. Another foreign officer , a foreign
general of staff , similarly warned him , Onn
day , the witness eald , when he wan visiting
the latter , he saw him take from his pocket
n voluminous packet containing military
documents. The officer eald that In France
one could buy anything , adding : "What Is
the good of Jews It you don't use them ? "
Being questioned If he had naked the
name of the traitor In this case , M. Cer-
iHifichl replied :
"No , because the officer had already said
Droyfus waa his Informant. "
This answer and the tone In which It was
delivered evoked a movement of Incredulity
among the audience. Major Carrlere , rep
resenting the government , asked that the
court hold further examination of this wit
ness behind closed doors , In view of the
diplomatic ldo of his testimony ,
Iinhnrl Taken n Ilniiil ,
M. Laborl then arose and announced that
since the prosecution had summoned the
aid of foreigner ; ; , he Intended to make
formal application to have complete steps
taken through foreign channels to ascertain
whether the documents mentioned In the
bordereau were delivered to a foreign
power , and If so , by whom. This announce
ment. It Cofoncl Jounust consents to
the application , will hnvo most Important
consequences. The words of M. Laborl
created a deep impression , as they made It

began by tearing -M-.BortlUon's system .of
argumentation to pieces. M. I'alnlcve then
entered upon a personal topic which quickly
won him the close attention ot the nudlcuce
and brought on a dramatic scene which kept
the spectators In a state ot excitement until
he finally left the bar.
M. Palnlevo referred to his evidence be
fore the court it cassatlon"nnd- protested
*
vehemently against the version given by
General Qonse ot a conversation with M.
Hadamard , a cousin of Dreyfus , In which
M. Hadamard expressed belief In the guilt
of Dreyfus.
"Never , " explained Patnjove , "did M.
Hcdamard doubt the Innocence ot his
cousin. "
General Qonno asked to be heard and
mounted thu stage. After declaring that the
whole matter was Insignificant General
Gonse Insinuated that the faith of M.
Hadamard and M. Falnleve In the Innocence
of Dreyfus must have been strengthened
recently.
M. Palnleve replied , warmly , Insisting that
he never had any doubt ot Dreyfus' In
nocence. The two men then went at It
hammer and tongs , M. Palnleve facing General -
oral Gonse with his arms folded and thrust
home with hla questions and retorts until
General Gonsa became red In the face. Then
General Roget joined In the discussion.
General Oi > nxu Under Fire.
M. Laborl bc < ? an a cross-examination of
General Gonse regarding a certain document
In the secret dossier , to which General Gonse
had referred , but which had not been sub
mitted to the court.
M. Laborl , not receiving satisfactory
answers and Uncling that Colonel Jouaust
declined to allow him to cress the matter
homo lu the way he wished , became extremely - i
'
tremoly Indlcnant and protested with con-
slderable warmth against Colonel Jouaust's
veto Of hla questions. This caused a little
biene between Colonel Jouaust and M.
Laborl. Finally the latter asked why a cer
tain dispatch from the French ambassador
at Rome relative to the payment ot money
to Major Count Esterhnzy by an Italian
agent had not been Included In the secret
dossier presented to the court.
General Gonse replied that he had not con
sidered the dispatch of sufficient Importance
to bo Included ( n the secret dossier. Colonel
Jouaust here again refused to allow some of
M. Laborl's questions. M , Laborl was fum
ing with. Indignation , but was obliged to ,
submit.
M. Laborl asked General Gonse who com
piled the secret dossier.
"I did , " shouted Commandant Culgnet
from the body of the hall.
Commandant Culgnet then came to the
bar and declared that ho had admitted all
documents from abroad , "because foreigners
wwe Interested In deceiving us. "
Commandant Culgnet added that another
dispatch existed , relating to a conversation
between a foreign sovereign and a French
military attache , la the course ot which the
sovereign said :
"What la now occurring In France Is proof
of the powers ot the Jews. "
This dispatch , said Culgnet , although
against Dreyfus , was also omitted from the
secret dossier.
As be made this statement Commandant
Culgnot turned to a brother officer sitting la
the place set apart for witnesses and smiled
with the gelf-satlsfled air of a man who had
made a distinct score.
Unfair Ailmlmlnii of TCvlilenoe.
Mm. Domange and Laborl Immediately
arose and expressed surprise that fresh evi
dence against Dreyfus should be Introduced
In this way , M. Laborl also expressed curi
osity respecting these documents which
were being held back concerning espionage
which were In the possession of the general
1ataff 1 and be Insisted that all tbeto docu-
i ments should bo submitted to the court be
hind closed doors ,
i The question of the report drawn up by
Commandant Culgnet and Officer Wattlnes ,
dealing exhaustively with the secret dossier ,
was then Introduced and Geueral Dlllot
arose to explain that the statement waa In

him.

"I gave this report , " he bald , "to M.

"Then , " said M. Labor ! , "let us have M.
Cavalgnao's explanation of what became ot
the report.
Colonel Jouaust called for M. Cavalgnac ,
tut the former minister of war was not In
the court room and an officer was sent to
o ck him.
Meanwhile the testimony ot a couple of
minor witnesses was heard. The proceedings

terspersed wltb heated scenes between M ,
Laborl and Colonel Jouauit.
M. Civalgnac could not be found In the
precincts of the Lycee and It was decided
to hear him tomorrow , A commissary of
the secret police named Tom pa was called
by the defense. Ills testimony concluded
today's proceedings , The commissary
proved Indirectly n strong wltnora for
Dreyfus , and a. correspondingly damaging
witness for the general staff His evidence
brought out a glaring Instance of duplicity
on the port of the Muff office In suppressing
documents which must weaken Its own case.
Commlwwry Temps was called to the gen
eral staff ofnco to Investigate a case ot
espionage , and naturally had consultations
nnd close relations with ofllcers of the
bureau. Commissary Temps togan hl testi
mony by paying a high tribute to Lieuten
ant Colonel Plcquart'a correct attitude and
uprightness In the Dreyfus Inquiry , while
other officers sought to undermine him by
Insinuations.
Ununrtlty Attempt of Henry.
Lieutenant Colonel Henry , the witness
asserted , tried to Induce him to attribute
to Plcquart the communication of the bor
dereau to the Matin , In which Journal , It
will bo remembered , the bordereau was first
published. Then Commissary Temps came
to the most Important portion of his testi
mony , which led to a restriction of his rev-
'ellUlons.
The witness was asked If ho had ever
Investigated the I'aulmlcr affair , which was
ai follows : Pnulralor was the valet of
Colonel Schwartzkoppen , the Gorman mili
tary attache at Paris , and It was alleged
tliat he eaw on Schwartzkoppen's desk docu
ments signed by Dreyfus. The general staff
had declared that an effort would bo made
to get at the truth of this story , but Paul-
mler disappeared , and therefore , although
the general staff could not prove the story ,
It could not bo disproved.
To the question regarding this case Com
missary Temps replied that ho had not
Investigated the affair , whereupon M. La
borl suggested that M. Hennion , sub-chief
of the political police , who Is now In Holmes
superintending the precautions for thu
( safety of witnesses , may have been cn-
ti ustcd. with the Inquiry Into this case.
Colonel Jouaust called to Honnlon , who
was present In the court room : "Come
hero and testify. "
M. Hcnnlon ascended the platform and
took the oath. Ho declared that he did
Investigate the .case and actually found
Paiilmler , who told him there was not n
word of truth In the whole story. He had
never seen , any paper bearing the name of
Droyfus.
M. Laborl at once called attention to the
fact that the .general staff had suppressed
M. Hennlon's report In favor of Dreyfus
and only declared that the report had been
received representing Peulmlcr as untrace-
nblo.
Commandant Culgnet and Captain Junck
then arose aud Insisted that only the report
M. Paulmler could not be traced had been
received at the office ot the general staff.

GRAPE-
NUTS
The Famous Food Suits
All Kinds of Stomachs.
NI3V15H UP A NIGHT.
A man In Grand Rapids , Mich , , F. J. Hill ,
a druggist , discovered that oneof the most
perfect and safe ways to wean a babe waste
to begin feeding Grape-Nuts , the famous
breakfast food ,
His totter states : "If there ! § a baby
food that U better than Grape-Nuts , It must
bo a dandy. We began feeding our little
Carola Grape-Nuts before weaning , and for
a few mouths after It was her only food ,
and a fatter , more healthy child could not
bo foupd. We were never up a night , nor
did she have a day's sickness. We didn't
realize when she gave up the nurse. Consequently
quently we feel grateful for the product
called Grape-Nuts , and wish you succcas , "
This coming from a druggist who has ac
cess to nil the weir-known baby foods Is
bomowbat rctnarkable , but when one realize *
that Grape-Nuts are composed of the most
nourishing parts of the cereals , treated by
heat , time and moisture , without any drugs
whatsoever , and thereby with scientific pro-
cerses , actually pre-dlgested , In the same
manner that the human body changes the
starch of the cereals into a delicate grape
sugar , It Is easy to understand why the
food can be bandied by even a very young
baby.
It U not only the most powerful nutritive
food for athletes and strong men , but , as
seen , It la applicable to the most dedicate
stomachs. This fact has been proven over
and over again by use wltb invalids and
weak babies. Add to these nutritious fea
tures , the fact that Grape-Nuts U of a most
delicious flavor , the grape augar to be seen
glistening on the little granules , and a rea
son la discovered for the universal and
enormous sale of the new food product ,
Grape-Nuts are made by the Postum
Cereal Co. , Ltd , at Ilattle Creek , and sold
by all first-dais grocers.
h d ever made statements attributed to him
with regard to the prisoner. He had alwajs
believed Dreyfus Innocent , nnd he vigor
ously protested Against such allegations.
Dreyfus , the witness ald , was a model
husband and not a gambler , nnd therefoto
It was absolutely untrue , the witness de
clared , thnt he hart ever made the nllegfl
statements to Habbl Dreyfus reflecting upon
the prisoner.
M. Dcraftngo read a letter from Habbl
Dreyfus , denying that he had over heard
< \ number of scandalous statements which ,
It has been alleged , were mnde to him.
After minor testimony tending to dis
credit the witness Savlgnatid and negative
the testimony ot M , Hadamard , n cousin ot
Dreyfus , but who did not know the pris
oner , and therefore could not have made
allegations against his private life , as as
serted , M. Palnlevc , a tirofciisor In the college -
lego of France , followed at the bar.
M. Palnleve exhaustively criticised M.
Dcrtlllon's cryptographic sjatcm , citing In
support of his conclusions the opinion of
M. Henri Polncare , to his mind the most
Illustrious mathematician ot modern times ,
who , in a letter the witness read , exam
ined seriatim the deductions of M. Uertlllon
and demonstrated their fallacy , also pointIng - '
Ing out miscalculations mndo by M. Valcrlo ,
Prof. Polncare's letter fully supported M ,
Bernard's conclusion * , !
The reading of I'rof. Polncaro's letter
having been concluded , M. Patnlcve repeated
his evidence before the court of cassation ,
He vehemently protested against the fnlso
charges of conversations with M. Hnda-
raard , In which the latter was made to
nfllrtn the guilt of Drcyfue. On the con
trary , the witness said , M. Hadamard never
doubted the prisoner's Innocence ,
niiiinc Consider * Point Trivial.
General Gonse Intervened at this Juncture.
He waa surprised , he said , at the Importance
attached to the evidence of MM. Hadamard
and Palnlevc. There had been , General
Gonso asserted , at least fluctuations In their
views of Dreyfus' character , for which
Dreyfus' own family were unwilling to give
guaranties.
M. Palnlove asserted thafboth M. Hada-
mnrd and himself had always been satisfied
that Dreyfus was Innocent.
As the altercation between General Gonso
and M. Palnleve was rapidly becoming
heAted , M. Laborl Intervened.
A sharp passage at arms followed between
M. Laborl and Colonel Jouaust , leading to
considerable excitement ,
M. Laborl asked General Gonse why he had
Incorrectly reported certain Information ho
had collected.
Colonel Jouaust refused to put the ques
tion and Invited M. Laborl to study modera
tion.
tion.M.
M. Labon retorted : "The defense IB using
Its rights with the utmost moderation. "
. Colonel Jouaust N6. you -are not. > beg ;
you not to drown my votoewhen I atn speak
ing. Your vwy tone is wanting In modera
tion. Moreover , I consider ( he .question un
important.
Thdro wer"o prolonged murmurs of assent
and dissent among the audience at this
declaration by Colonel Jouaust.
M , Laborl said he was surprised thnt
General Gonso had Included Incorrect In
formation In the secret dossier and asked
General Gonso who made up the secret
dossier.
General Gonse I composed one of the
secret dossiers by means of annexed docu
ments communicated to the ministry , but
the minds of all the war ministers were
made up before they had any cognizance of
thceo documents
M. Laborl Does General Gonso assume
responsibility for those secret dossiers to
July , 1E9S ?
General Gonce Yes. I had charge of It.
All Document * .Not Included.
M. Labor ! How happens it , then , that a
telegram from the French ambassador at
Rome , sent b- the foreign office to the war
oflTce , referring to payment * " to Estcrhazy
by an Italian agent , was not added to the
secret dossier ?
General Gonse There were plenty of
others. All were not Included , but only the
most important.
M. Laborl Wan the information of thb
French ambassador at Home of loss Im
portance than the garbled conversation ot
M. Palnleve ?
Colonel Jouaust I will not qut the ques
tion.
tion.M.
M. Laborl Why was the Information
against Dreyfus always Included in the
dossier , and never uny Incriminating Ester-
hazy ?
Colonel Jouaust I also refuse to put
that question.
Commandant Culgnet , who made up the
secret dossier , replying to Colonel Jouaust ,
explained that he omitted everything em
anating from foreigners as intereseted and
misleading to France. Several documents
of this kind bad been omitted , particularly
one reciting a conversation between a for
eign sovereign and n French attache , in
the course of which the sovereign was rep
resented as saying that what was occurring
In Franco was proof of the power ot the
Jews.
"That , " added Commandant Culgnct.
"might be retarded as against Dreyfus , but
nevertheless It is not included In 'the dos
sier. "
M. Demange expressed surprise that the
document in question had not appeared In
the war office dossier.
Commandant Culcnet It does not appear
there because It was received at the foreign
office.
M. Paleologue , Intervening , said that the
foreign office only acted as on Intermediary
In that matter.
M. Labor * commented In a surprised way
on the fact that alleged fresh proofs against
Dreyfus were still spoken of and demanded
that all proofs be produced ones for all.
General Cbamoln was asked by Colonel
Jouauat if he had any explanations to offer
and replied that his duty was merely to
reproduce the secret dossier and that bo
could not say anything regarding docu
ments outside of the dossier. Heplylng to
M. Laborl , Commandant Culgnet declared
that there were documents relating to Drey
fus In a dossier connected with esplo'nago
in tbo Intelligence department.
Laborl IJrinnntl * All Ilooiimcntii
M. Labor ! said he must Insist that all
these documents be produced at the secret
session of tne courtmartlal , at which M.
Cernuschl Is to be examined.
General Billet , formerly minister of war ,
here mounted the platform and said be was
glad that reference had been made to the
, secret dossier , as It enabled him to pretest -
test against the insinuations that be had
handed Commandant Culenet a document
' from the seecrt dossier. He hnd banded
the document In question to M , Cavalgnac.
, Demanee begged that Colonel Jouaust
ask M , Cavalgnao to produce the document ,
but as M. Cavalgnac was not present the In
cident was temporarily dropped ,
M. Layet , > vho Is on the staff of the Temps ,
testified that the spy Guenee Informed him
'
that the War office had Indisputable proof
! of the guilt ot Dreyfua and stationed a
! snapshot photographer who took a repre
sentation of Dreyfus conversing with a mil-
Itarv attache at Brussels ,
After the brief recces ot the court Colonel
Peyrot deposed that he met M. Bertullus ,
Judge of tbo court of cassation , at Dieppe ,
after the arrest of Lieutenant Colonel
Henry and that M. Bertullus narrated to
Dim the dramatic scene In his office with
Henry. . > ' ,
M , Bertullui was yery jubilant' oyer
Henry's arrest and eald be was convinced
that If Henry were detained everything
would be known In due time ,
I M. Temps , n special commissary of the
railway police , deposed that he photographed
the bordereau by orders of Colonel Band-
herr. He bad not manipulated the plate

Plcqunrt ordered the wltnera to discover who
had supplied the photographic copy. While
engaged In the Investigation of this matter ,
lieutenant Colonel Henry upon one occasion
approached the- witness and clearly evinced
great uncAslnesa nt the successive revela
tions In the Dreyfus affair. Lieutenant
Colonel Henry told the witnesn that the
revelations could only have emanated from
nn Individual who had the documents In his
hand. Henry , the witness testified , added :
Henry VOI' | < > H II ! * I'lirilnlncNi ,
"They can only cmanatn from our office ,
where only Plcquart , Lnuth , Orlbelln or my-
Rclt could have revealed them. I am sure
that neither I auth , Grlbolln nor myself ha e
been so Indiscreet. You would do well to
dlncovcr who ! responnlblc.
M. Temps detailed successive steps In his
Investigations HhowIiiE * io > v Lieutenant
Colonel Henry and Commandant Lauth had
brought pressure to bear to make him Im
plicate Lieutenant Colonel Plcquart and
their ansry threats when the witness' report
did not suit them. They accused the wit
ness of being Influenced by some one.
Replying o M. Demange , M. Tomra ald
that he had only mixed up Esterhnry In
connection with the report. Esterhnzy had
been seen at n forelsn agent's residence
which had two exits nnd had other suspicious
relations. Witness had found corroboratlon
of this.
Replying to M. Laborl , M. Temps further
detailed Lieutenant Colonel Henry' * proa-
euro upon him is 1th a view to having the
communication of the bordereau to the

Detective Hennion testified regarding the
assertion trt the effect "that Paultnler , the
valet of Colonel Schartzko'ppen , the ( Jcr-
man military attache , hnd seen plans of
fortresses signed by Dreyfua on hla mailer's
tnblp. M. Hennion furnished a typewritten
report on the subject , showing that PauN
mler never saw nor over said ho had seen
auch documents.
M. Laborl pointed out thnt the headquar
ters staff h'nd alleged that the detective only
reported thnt Paulmler had disappeared and
thnt his address was unknown. Probabry ,
M. Laborl suggested , the gentleman at head
quarters merely misunderstood the report of
the detective.
Commandant Culgnet attempted to explain
that the police report Indicated thftt Pnul-
mler had disappeared , but that afterwards
It was discovered that the police were
wrong.
Captain Junck corroborated the statements
of Commandant Culgnet and said that the
police had furnished a written report.
MLaborl much regretted that this report
could not be found and Added , amidst much
excitement : "But this Is always the case.
It Is always Impossible to get nt the bottom
of Interesting Incidents owing to documents
being missing. "
No Snnpielftii of rioqnnrt.
Commiindant Lauth reappeared with the
view of refuting the evidence of M. Tomps.
Lauth declared that no ono in the statistical
section dreamed of suspecting Plcquart when
the inquiry was ordered as to now the Matin
secured the bordereau. Suspicion attached
rather to a civilian clerk who was on frlcnJly
terms with Tomps.
After Commissary Temps had replied the
court retired to deliberate on the subject of
holding another secret session. When the
members of the court returned. Colonel
Jouaust announced thnt there would be a
Bitting en camera tomorrow morning.
The name of Selge Bassett waa then
called. Mr. Bnssett la the London corre
spondent of the Matin , who furnishes thu
Ksterhazy Interviews , and Mm. Laborl and
Demange pointed out thftt KntprhB/.v'a con
fessions were too Important to be discussed
at the fng-end of the day's session Upon i
suggestion of counsel for the defence the
court-martial therefore adjourned for the day
at 11:40 : o'clock a. m.
