INTERESTING TESTIMONY GIVEN BY DETECTIVES April 16—The Figaro pub (Sunday) morning the ev n by Detectives Guence, enire before the Court ience deposed that Col- after Dreyfus was ar- foned him to invi life. Guence reported re gate that Dreyfus was and oclation with women. He nota- bly frequented the house of a woman named Bodson, where a scandal broke out, a German officer threatening to disclose Dreyfus’ connection with Ger- many. The Bodson woman intervened to_prevent it. Henry sent Gribelin to Guence with | Dreyfus’ photograph. Guence ad- mitted he knew, but refused to reveal the bearer of the bordereau to Matin. | | He admitted the report he made con. rning Dreyfus was based upon the gossip of servants and others, but when sed to give names refused on the round of professional secrecy. Tomps deposed that he was ordered to dis to Matin. When the evidence he ob- tained pointed to Teyessonviere, one of the handwriting experts against Drey- fus, Henry dropped Tomps and em- ployed Gribelin to continue the investi- gation. Desverniere deposed that ' Picquart employed him to spy upon Esterhazy, whom he saw four times at the Ger- man Embassy, otherwise his evidence was unimportant. S . WAS RUSSIA BEHIND DREYFUS' CONVICTION? PARIS, April 15.—Still another novel and interesting explanation of why the highest authorities inflexibly oppose the reopening of the Dreyfus case is now put forward, to this effect: Dreyfus was originally denounced to the French Government by the Russian Embassa- dor, who declared that he had been fur- nishing information to Germany. —————— BISQUE_FIGURES AND ORNAMENT DAY.

He | then passes into specifications show- | ing how repeated attempts have been made to interfere with the department of justice in this case: 1. In October, 1890, soon after the orig- | inal Standard Oil case was brought, a | member of the Ohio Legislature (name | | not given), who has had great experience as a lobbyist, called on ex-Secretary of | State D. J. Ryan at the Park Hotel and | offered $75,000 if he would successfully use his influence to have the case against the Standard stopped. | 2 A party known by name to D. K. | | Watson called him to the Gilsey Houss | | in New York and offered him the attor- | neyship for 3000 miles of railway for life | if he would let the Standard Ofl case run over his term. 3. Another man claiming to represent | the Standard called on vatson here in | Columbus and offered him $100,00 to drop the case. 4. A second time a New York party called Watson to New York; told him he was a fool not to accept the raliroad at- torneyshalg and renewed the offer with $100,000 ditional. The names of the would-be bribers and full details are known to D. K. Watson and can be se- | cured only by the court ordering a full | investigation ‘of the matter. 5. Thereafter another man claiming to represent the Standard Ofl Company called on Watson and improperly tried to | induce him to drop the cases, but failed. 6. Dewitt C.
