London, Aug. 17. Correspondents of
London papers at Rennes are almost un
animous in taking a gloomy view of the
prospects of Dreyfus. Tho representative
of the Daily Telegraph says that unless
tho German government reveals the
name of the real traitor it is quite on the
cards that tho same verdict will be
rendered as in the previous court martial.
Outlook Brighter for Dreyfus.
Rknnes, Aug. 17. Maitre Monard
counsel for the Dreyfus family before the
court of cassation in the trial of the re
vision proceedings, has been summoned
to replace Labori until the latter is ablo
to resume the conduct of the case. In
spite of the difficulties encountered by
the defense today the session of the court
opened with brighter prospects for the
prisoner, as Demange evidently came
primed with questions to be put to Roget.
A number of the counsel's shots struck
the bulls eye and made the general
squirm in his seat. Roget was unable to
conceal his annoyance and anger when
Demange scored, and he threw glances
of savage resentment at the audience
when suppressed titters went around the
court room as Demange cornered him.
Then came a witness who proved to be a
splendid reinforcement for Dreyfus. It
was W. Bertullus, the examining magis
trate who received the late Lieutenant
Colonel Henry's confession of forgery.
Bertullus gave testimony which was a
veritable ppeech for the defense. The
court adjourned after partly hearing
Colonel Picquart who will continue his
deposition tomorrow.
"DeWitt's Little Early Risers did me
more good than all blood medicines and

Thompson, Conn. Prompt, pleasant,
never gripe, they cure constipation,
arouse tho torpid liver to action and
give you clean blood, steady nerves, a
clear brain and a healthy appetite.
