The antl-Dreyfusards broke loose and surted a demonstration which, but for prompt and vigorous measure by th police, would bav undoubtedly de veloped Into serious disorders. The first sign at trouble manifested Itself Immediately fter the verdict be came known. Tne streets leading to the Lycee were at that time filled with crowds of people awaiting news from the courtroom. The announcement of the prisoner's condemnation was gree able to a majority of these, and cheers and crle of "vUve l'armee" were raised. the gen d'amies and troops looking on without any aXWmpt at Interference. The terrace da front ot ths CaXe di la Palx. the leading tafe la Ronavs, was filled with .people taking thetr after noon drink and apperlents. when the verdict of the -court was announced, the customers ruse to their feet and donionded that the string band that plays on the terrace should give the Uurswdlulse.

THE MORNING S PROCEEDINGS, , RENNES, Sept. .-Thls mornings session of tne Dreyfus court martial opened at fcW o'clock. Extraordinary precaution for the prevention of an outbreak had been taken, detachments of police aad military having been stationed Vith Inside and outside of Lycee. Every person entering the building waa obliged to submit to a searchmg for concealed arms. A triple detachment of Infantry and artillery men was stationed In the court yard which was surrounded by sheaves of piled arms with bayonets fixed. Only Mm.

Demange commenced the second part of his appeal taking up the study of the bordereau on all points. His voice vibrated with emo- llQn As il. Demange proceeded with his final orpeal, he argued that the dervau was clearly the work of Ebter- hazy. He said that Esterhazy had , debts and dltllcultles which rendered making extra money necessary. He de- declared the bordereau's writing more closejy resembled that of Esterhazy than that of Dreyfus and pointed out that Esterhazy repeatedly declared the bordereau was his own work. Whether the verdict Is rendered be fore noon, Jt was announced, depended upon whether Laborl renounced bis right to speak. The officers everywhere seemed to be In good humor. The city was a nest ot troops. Some took it that the comparatively small number of gendarmes In the hall Indicated a verdict of acquittal. On the other hand, during the deliberation of the Judges the hall was cleared and upon Its return the audience found the place bristling with troops. Dreyfus was all the time holding up admirably. BEFORE THE VERDICT. NEW TORK, Sept. 9.-A dispatch to the Tribune from Paris says: Tho verdict of the Rennes courtmar- tlal was awaited with equal confidence by both Dreyfusard and antl-Dreyfusards. Julet, Arthur, Meyer, Cas sagnac, the Comte de Mun, MUlevoye, Drumond and Rochefort, who between them represent the five great political parties, clericals, nationalists, royal ists, Imperialists and antl-semltes, now In coalition against the republic, af firmed their absolute certitude that Vlvanl asserted with equal conviction that Drtyfu would be acquitted. The situation waa complicated by the xTeytunri being divided Into two literary and professional men who reoresent the nation s brains. For all honest Imperial men, the Dreyfus trial wa settled on August uth, when General Mercier's elaborate indictment failed on It own showing to establish the prisoner' guilt All the subsequent testimony- produced by the cabal of ex-minister and leader of the former general staff wa not evidence, but Dreyfu baiting, and as Corneley forcibly came cut in the Figaro, It Is moostroua to suppose that the seven Rennes judges, who all I hlnnr to the scientific branches of th.r profession are capable of pro- twenty-seven session of the court martial have practically proved to be an Impossibility. : The situation wa summed up as fol low: I The acquittal was to be the signal for the manifestation which will enable the International exposition of 1900 to take place. The acoulttal It wa expected would doubtless be followed by a few weeks of growling and barking of the clericals and their nationalist and Jew ..,. .... . , . wa, ..,,. WM fl.VM. u. tor ' ... Th(! V(rdlct of conHctlon. u wag predlctedi u M. Corneley stated, most emphatically, "would lead In- i fallibly by suceeelve etepo to civil war." It would offer the spectacle- France cutting herself asunder from the rest of the clvillxed world and plunRlng ,nt0 barbarism: It would be the signal for royalist, nationalist. clerical and antl-semltlc onslaught on the K1mie, compcated by a socialist upheaval. "The Judicial consequences," con- Unt(a M Corneer. "would be to bring the Rennes Judgment before a mtlitary court of revision. Owing to numerous errors of procedure and other irregularltiea already committed probably the court of revision would annul the sentence of the court mar tial, but If the court of revision con firmed the decision there would be still sufflcent grounds to bring the whole case before the court of cassation.
