The Facts in the Crnikshaztk Divorce Suit Under Discussion. In the Cruikshank divorce case this morning. Judge Jesse Johnson charged the jury.

All the parties to the suit, and many of the witnesses were in court. The charge occupied forty minutes. Before he began, he had a talk with counsel in the private room, and it was decided to reduce the number of issues to be presented to the jury-When he returned the occupants of the court room settled down to listen, and the officer in charge of the door locked it, so as to exclude, any one whose entrance might interrupt the proceedings. This is comparatively an innovation. It secures quiet and prevents the attention of the jury being withdrawn from the case.

"Emphatically," said the judge, "this is a question of fact and inference drawn from fact. It for you as business men to bring to the consideration of the case your experience and the knowledge that conies to yon from your associations in the business relations of life." His Honor said that they first consider the facts. If they found these to be true, they must decide what the facts implied. In order to do this, they must determine three things: 1. They must find that there was desire on both sides.

That meant not simply admiration or even love and affection, but a desire to commit the act of adultery. Then they must determine whether there was opportunity to commit the act; and, finally that advantage was taken of the opportunity and the act committed. "What you do now," said the Judge, "is the whole result of this trial, which has taken two weeks. All the time of the Court, of the lawyers, of th parties and the witnesses has been given to aid yon in determining the facts in this case. Every just Terdict is a benefit to society and the administration to justice, and its tendency is to give credit to the law so that parties in the wrong will not be willing to submit to the ordeal of a trial.

Every unjust verdict breaks down that credit, and consequently society, l'ou are not, therefore, to consider the case as one for sympathy, but as a case to be determined on the facts as you find them, after seeing the parties, hearing the evidence and being sworn to do your duty and desirous of doing it" At 11:30 the jury retired. At three o'clock there was no sign of a verdict being Brooklyn Cathollos Bee tke Presi- dent. WASHINGTON.

TO RELEASE CAPT. DREYFUS, Motion Made by the Procurateur General of France To-Day. REVISION IS DEMANDED. Conrt of Cassation Asked to Release the Convicted Officer Pending the Retrial of the Case, on the Gronnd that the State Has Evi denoe to Establish His Innocence. I DID net ti lAmo, wci.

in. xne proceertings in tne case of Dreyfus were resumed before the Court of Cassation to-day, the scenes within and without the court being si to those of yesterday. teiipseior Bard concluded his f.rmal statement to the Court as the result of his investigation of the availbale evidence finally contending that the elements of evi dence "actually reliable were insufficient for the conviction of Dreyfus. He declared that if the so-called secret evidence was not produced immediately he would ask the Court conclude the inquiry and pro nounce in favor of Dreyfus. At the close of M.

Bard's speech, M. Mor-nard. counsel for Mme. Dreyfus, addressed the conrt. dealing ith the conclusions contained in M.

Bard's address. M. Manan, the Procurateur General, at the beginning of his part of the discussion, exclaimed: "Let ng go on with the revision." This utterance created a sensation in the court. M. Manan then declared that revision was a lcsul necessity.

The false statements that had been made by Colonel Henry, and various other matter which came to light in 1S97, he went on to say, were of such a nature as to establish the innocence of Dreyfus. The Procurateur General asked the Court of Cassation to suspend th punishment of Dreyfus pending the decision of the court upon the question of revision of bis trial. LONDON, Oct. Paris dispatch to the Central News says that a striking change is already evident in the aspect of the Dreyfus case and the acquittal of Dreyfns is now regarded as being quite within the realm of possibility.

NEW EAST RIVER BRIDGE Proposition to Construct Thoroughfare from Plasa to Union Avenue.

The New East River Bridge Commission heW its regular weekly meeting yesterday afternoon in the Emigrants' Savings Bank Building, "ManhaKtnn. The only incident outside of the routine business was the appearance of a delegation from Williamsburg, who came over to enlist the co-operntion of the Commissioners in the movement that hag been started to construct a direct thoroughfare between the proposed plana at the Brooklyn end of the new bridge and the junction of t'nion avenue and Grand street. In the delegation were W. A. Mathis.

Charles W. Schaedle, Joseph McGrath ami I. S. Remsen. Mr.

Mathis acted as spokesman and explained the advantages to lie derived from the improvement proposed. The distance is about four blocks, and the property that will have to be taken is estimated to coBt $250,000. "The construction of this improvement," said Mr. Mathis, "will open all the section enst of Union avenue such as Richmond Hill, Glendale, Newtown, Middle Village and Flushing. It will also straighten the road to Jamaica by two miles.

This will be done without any material injury to any section excepting the few blocks on Grand street below the line of the improvement." The Commission promised all the assistance in their power, but were compelled to acknowledge that in the present state, of the city's finances, little could be done to obtain possession of the property required, or in fact take any intitiatory steps; if on investigation the project should receive the approval of the Commission. At the meeting Secretary Smith E. Lane submitted a statement prepared in ai-eordance with a report of Controller as to the condition of the bridge funds, showing that Greater New York has contributed more than waa appropriated for the bridge before consolidation. The statement showed that before Jan. 1 New York appropriated $553,455 and Brooklyn $537,325, whereas the present grenter city has already appropriated for the work $2,008,800.

Receivers Uklmann and Frothing- ham, of Brooklyn and Kings County Explain Their Positions in Regard to the Temporary Agreement.

The Kings County will begin the transfer of its passengers across the Bridge for one fare. on Tuesday morning at 12 o'clock, and the first through train will be run over its tracks, leaving the Manhattan end of the Bridge at 10:15 o'clock a. m. on that day. Receiver Frothingham stated this morning that during the rush hours the patrons of the Kings County' would be' transferred to the Bridge at the Bridge station and the trains would run down to the ferry as now.

When tnrongh trains are run over the Bridge shuttle trains will be run 'from the Bridge station to nnd from Fulton Ferry. "We shall give the best service possible, he concluded, "with the conditions now existing, anrt when those conditions improve we shall give better service, as they will when the Brooklyn is equipped with electricity, and when our road is as it eventually will." Frederick Uhlmann, receiver of the Brooklyn in explainhafi the conditions of the temporary contract entered into between the Brooklyn and the Kings County as published In yesterday's "Citizen," said: "The contract conserves alt the Hghts of the Kings County and it is the fairest that could be drawn up. By it the Kings County pays $88.33 a day, which is based upon its running one train to our two across the Bridge, and in addition the Kings County is to pay a proportionate share of the cost of maintaining the local Bridge railroad. This is to be based on the number of passengers carried by the Kings County and the cost of operating the Bridge raliroad in transporting its quota of passengers. The profits and the losses of the Bridge railroad are to be entirely borne by the Brooklyn 'V 'The Kings County 'L is to paj its money to the Brooklyn 'L' ind the Brooklyn 'L' will in turn hand the money over weekly to Bridge Commissioner Shea.

The toll of the Kings County like that of the Brooklyn is at the rate of 10 cents per car per round trip, but the Kings County 'L' does not have to pay the rental of 20,000 a year besides which the Brook lyn 'L' pays to the Bridge Commissioner for the city for the use of the Bridge plant, "The temporary contract now entered In to does not abrogate the rights of tne lapsed contract of the Kings County 'IS of Aug. 23, 1897, with the former Bridge trustees, and if the Kings County 'L' wishes to take legal action against he Bridge Commissioner the way is open. I am not the representa tive of the Kings County 'L for its Bridge rights, though 1 acted in that capacity gra tuitously in the first instance, and I have desired that the Kings County 'V should get the Bridge as soon as possible, he County Is not a competitor of the Brooklyn."

Before the Appellate Division this morning, argument was heard on the appeal from Justice Gaynor's order granting a writ, commanding the Board of of the City of New York to apportion the general school fund of and out of that amount award the School Board of Brooklyn the sum i f. oti the basis of Section 'VJ0jj of the charter. To the local School was awarded the sum of by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment. President J. Edward wanstrom and Ira Leo Bamberger ap- eared for the Brooklyn School Board and E.

Ellery Anderson for the Board Education and the other school hoards of the city. Mr. Anderson said thn the proceedings were friendly, being merely to ascertain the statutory construction of (he charter section quoted. The facts stated on the petition were admitted as 'true, but it was not conceded that the basis of attendance -ofTeachers nnd pupils as shown by the Brooklyn School Board was that contemplated by the charter. Certain fixed sums were raised for school purposes in The amounts were: Manhattan and the Bronx, Brooklyn.

Queens, $470,536.10, and Richmond. $20,093.17. Mr. Anderson said vhat the matter would i go to the Court of Appeals on the decision of the Appellate Division, as there might be a question of the jurisdiction of the Appellate Court of the Second Division over that of the First Division. Justice Bartlett, through presiding Justice Goodrich, at once interrupted the argument to ask if counsel pressed the question of jurisdiction.

If it was pressed, then the argument might he materially changed. i While Mr. Anderson hesitated, Mr. Bamberger contended that before Justice Gaynor the question of jurisdiction was waived. Counsel was again asked whether he waived the question, and finally he replied that he did so far as he could, in order to.

preserve his rights before the Court of Appeals. This caused the Justices to smile, and Mr Anderson was allowed to proceed with his argument. One of the principal' points made by Mr. Anderson was that the Board of Estimate and Apportionment had complete and exclusive jurisdiction in the matter before the court. Decision was reserved.
