A NEW CHARTER
IN THE DREYFUS
SCANDAL OPENS
Picquart and Loblois are to
be on Trial.
Picquart Makes a Statement Intimating
that He Expects to be Murdered in
Prison, and Declares He Will Not
Commit Suicide.
Paris, Sept. 21. The trial tf Colonel
Ticqnart and M. Loblois, a lawyer, on a
charge of revealing documents concern
ing the national defense, began today
before the correctional tribunal. The
public prosecutor, however, asked for an
adjournment, on the ground that the
prosecution of Picquart on a charge ol
forgery atd using a forged document
had been ordered bi the minister of
war.
M. Laborie, who was counsel for Zola
during the latter's famous trial, indig
nantly opposed the adjournment, which
he said was an attempt to hand Picquart
-over into the clutches of the military
authorities.
Picquart then made a statement which
caused a sensation. He said :
"Ibis is perhaps the last time I 8hn.ll
speak in public. I shall sleep, perhaps,
in the prison of Cberche Midi. There
fore, I wish to declare if I find there the
strangling cord of Le Merrier Picard or
the razor of Colonel Henry, it will be
murder, for I have.no idea of commit
ting suicide."
The audience was intensely moved,
and shouted "vive Picquart." The
' judges, however, decided to indefinitely
adjourn the caee.
Le Htrcier Picard referred to by M.
Picquart was a detective, understood to
have been employed in the Dreyfus a'-
fair, who was found hanging in his
lodgings about a year ago under circuin
stances which cast some doubt upon the
theory that be committed suicide. -
Trial Will Proceed.
Paris, Sept. 21. Papers here say that
Minister of War Chunoine has ordered
the trial of Picquart on a charge of forg
ery and using forged documents.

. Deafness Cannot De Cared
by local applications, as they cannot
reach tbe diseased portion . of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is bv constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube.' When this tube is in
flamed you have a rambling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
ont and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous ear
faces. .. . . - ' " - -
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.- -

P. E. Butler, : of puck-train No. 3,
writing from Sandiago, De Cuba, on
Julv 23d, says : "We all bad diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we bad no lime to see a
doctor, for it was a case of rush and rush
night And day to keep the troops sap
plied with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Eemedy, we were able to
keep at work and keep our health ; in
fact. I sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers bed been unable to work there
would bavH been no way of getting sup
plies to the front.' There were no roads
that a wagon train could use. My com
rad and myself had the good fortune to
lay in a supply of this medicine for out
pack-train before we left Tampa, and I
know in fonr cases it absolutely saved
life."
