The Judge.--“No, no, M. Demange; do not answer that.”
M. Clemenceau.--“Permit me to ask a question. _Monsieur le Président_,
I point out to you, in the first place, that an incident which lasted
a very long time, and in which Colonel Henry figured, bore exclusively
on the Dreyfus case; taking advantage of this observation, I ask you to
put to M. Demange the following question. M. Demange has just told us,
and is forbidden further explanation by the court, that he was certain
that the verdict had not been legally rendered. I ask him if he cannot
tell us on what he bases this certainty, and especially if he does not
base it on the fact that a member of the council of war so declared to
M. Salle, who has so declared to him.”
