Testimony Undermines Dreyfus Bordereau Claims
Witnesses expose that information in the bordereau was common knowledge among officers. General Sebert rebuts Bertillon and asserts the document was not written by artillery or polytechnic graduates. Major Ducros and Major Hartmann reinforce that the accused details were accessible to many officers in 1894. The court adjourned for the day.

Yesterday’s Dreyfus Session Highlights Prosecution Flawed
The session favored Dreyfus as key prosecution witnesses proved unreliable. A witness relied on to show he attended German maneuvers was exposed as a swindler, with his statements contradicted by his employer. Witnesses noted gun and shell information as common knowledge among officers. Bertillon’s cryptograms were ridiculed by General Sebert, and the court shut down his defense. General Roger was caught quibbling while impugning a Dreyfus witness.
