He has received the Légion d'Honneur:

Henri Vogt as a student of the ENS in 1881

New information:

I have got a scan of the front and back pages of his PhD thesis, where we learn that

  1. The "Commission d'Examen" was composed of Hermite (président) and Appell and Poincaré (examinateurs)

  2. The thesis is dedicated to Appell: "À Monsieur Appell, Hommage de respectueuse reconnaissance".

I would be tempted to deduce that Appell was his advisor.
