Inns- much a8 tho statutes of. tha State of New York on tho subject of, forgory coritain no provision for tho punishment of forgen nt a Ictter such aa tho Moroy letter, The statutes of this State ou tho subject of forgery ure confined.to tho forgery of papers or instruments affecting the rights of property, or the forgery of records und wills, The only way, therefore, to punish the offender, as Barnum and all intetligeut men know, was to proceed against him for a erlminnt = Mbel on = Gen. Garfleld, ‘The trinl of Hbol charged Involves necessarily tho establishment of a forgery. Barnum’s dis- Patohos are desperate attempts to. mislead tho public. He and his associates undoubtedly hoped that wo would make a charge of forgery, relying upon thelr ability to dismiss tho chargo, inasmuch as tho charge cannot be sustained upon the forging of auch a letter, Tholr expece tutions were not reallzcd, and thoy are despor- ately disappointed. YESTERDAY. NOTHING VERY 8ATISFACTORY. Bpectat Dispatch to The Chteagn Tribune, New York, Oct. 28.—The Garfield tetter- forgery case brought out no special develop: ments to-day, as is fully reported In the press dispatches, ‘Tho work now In land relates solely tothe taking of testinony before Judge Davis to determine swhether the alleged nu- thor of the document shail be held to the Grand Jury or not, ‘The evidence bora most closely upon the authorship of the Mbelous article that appeared in the paper that printed the forged letter, and entitled “ Garfield's Death Warrant.” It was on this that the warrant for the arrest of Philp was (ssned, and for this that-he is held on the charge of malicious Ibel. THE ORIGINAL OF THE FORGED LETTER was produced {a court, but not until Mr, Mart, the reformed ond-man, and present publisher of “ruth, had got himself.intoa corner from which he could not escape by refusing to answer question of counsel ns to the whereabouts of the letter, and, being threatened with commitment by Judge Davis, this had the desired effect, and Mr. Hurt and friend wero elven three hours in which to produce the letter, ‘The bellef of thoso ox- anined, who have known Philp’ for years, and who are famillar with his handwriting, was that this tetter was In Nis writing, but, of course, It was a dificult. matter for anyone of them: to positively state that it was from his pen, ‘There wasa moral If not legal cortainty of It. THERE WAR A VERY ANSURD RUMOR flylng about this afternoon that Gen, Garfield was In tho city, and would be placed on the witness-stand to-morrow, Thera was not 0 word of truth in the statement, but it is re- ported that he will bo stimmoned after the election, and wit then declare ingeourt what ho has already In his telegrams and letters— tho utter falsity of tho allegation that he wrote this letter, THE TRIAL, YELERDAY MOUNING, New Yonk, Pet. 28,—The case of Kenward Philv, of the Truth nowspaper, arrested on a charge of crindnal Ilbel, growing out of tho publication of the so-called “ Chinese let- ter,” which was adjourned yesterday after- noon, the prisoner belng held in $5,000. bail, was continued to-day In the Supreme Court, before Justice Noah Davis, JOSERIE MART, ono ofthe proprictors of the paper, was placed on the witness stand, having been subpennod by the prosceution, ‘The prose- cution demanded the production of the origi- nal letter from which the photographie copy was made, Hart said he had the original letter, but declined to produce it at tho present time. Ils counsel said they would produce the original when thoy deemed the proper time had arrived. Judgo Davis then committed Iart for con- tempt, and the further hearing of the caso was postponed until the commitment papers had been made out, THE ¥iueT WITNESS, Assistant District-Attorney Beil, for tho People, catted as the first. witness Col. A. F, well, Unitert States army, Washington, ile testified that he knew Gen, Garfield twen- ty-seven years; was his classmate, and grad- ated with bin at college, In his extensive correspondence with Garflell more than 1,000 letters had passed between then. Wit therefore, perfeetly. familine with Guefield's handwriting, A Uthograph was handed witness and identified by Iiim aga copy of n letter recelved by him in Novern- ber from Gen, Garfield, Assistant Attorney Bell asked the counsel for the defense If they had THE OROINAL CHINESE LETTER, ‘The counsel stated that they did not pro- pose to answer that question at present. The photograph of the letter In agilt frame was handed ta by defense. Mr. Bell declined to receive this, and again called.for the orlginal in order that he might examine Col. Ruckwell In regard to tt, Counsel for Philp stated that the original letter was not In the possession of thelr client, but was held by Mr. Aart, the pub- Usher of Truth. mAnT, The Inttertwas fn court, and was called to the witness-stand, Hurt sald he had not the original Morey letter with him: that it was in the possession of a¢ friend, and he de- ellned to give his name, ‘The witness could not procure the letter, as his friend was out of town, Mx. Bell demanded the name of the party to whom the letter had been delivered, but Mr. Hart again refused to answer. ‘The Court ordered him to answer, but he again, Ina respectful tone, declined. Judge Davis ordered him committed for contempt of court, and he was handed over to the custody of Pollce Captain Walsh, Mr. Howe, of counsel for the defense, made a motion to purge Col, Hart from contempt, saying that Col, Hurt was will ing to produce the letter, but that he wanted a enarantes that the letter should be re- turned to him. Howe explatned that he did not snenn to say that the Court would keep the letter, but that it imight pass Into sub- ordinate hands and be lost. Continuing, Mowe sald that If the letter was to remain in the custody of Judye Davis COL. WANT WAS WILLING TO PRoDUCH IT. Judge Davis sald the letter would remain in his custody, Ou motion, Col, Hurt was allowed threo hours to go with counsel and procure the letter, Jlart made a statement that he was willing to produce the letter, but that he wanted a: Ruarantee that it would be returned to him or else remain fn the custody of Judge Davis, ‘The proposition was accepted, and Hart and. counsel then left to get the letter. Cal, Rockwell was recalled, and asked as to the Identity of the letter written by James AvGarfield to Marshall Jewell denying tho authenticity of the Morey letter. He testl- fied that the Garfield letter to Mr. Jesvell was genuine, Question hy Mr. Bell; Look at the copy.of A newspaper called Trith, and also a copy dated the 20th; look at the photo-lithograph- fe copy of the letter purporting to be signed by Jatnes A. Garfield, and state if, in your -Judgment, It Is jn Gen. Garfield's hand- writing. Mr. Brooks, for the defense, objected to the question, as. comparison was made with the photographie and not with the original, which would be produced. Judge Davis ruled that the evidence was premature, as.u0 proof had been. given that the facsimile was a photographic copy, and that the prisoner had not as yet been con- nected with.it. A recess was thon taken, AFTER RECESS, The Court reassembled at 2:30, At 2x5 Mr. Hart and counsel entered the court-room, Mr. Hartapotosized for detaining the Court, saying he had been delayed by an indict: went in a State Court for libel on complaint of Marcus Cicero Stanley, Mr. art then took the witness-stand and produced the letter, Mr. Bell asked for tho envelope. Hart sald ho was told to bring the letter only, It would take five hours to get the envelope, Judge Davis—Mr. Hart, what have you to say?” Mr. Hart replied; “Ihave been in Brook- lyn, slr. When in Brooklyn 1 received a tel- ephone communication that I was to be ar- rested under an Indictment obtalned In the District-Attorney’s oflce, and that tho Indict- ment had been procured.

Mr, Bell asked Mart—" Do 1 understand the letter you produced is one and the samo published In Zruth? Hart—" Yes, sir? Col, A. F. Rockwell was recalled, Toe testifled that he purchased a copy of the Washington Gazette when It first published the fac-slmtie copy of the Morey-letter, and compared it with the letters in his possession. recelved from Garfield, and then thought it aforgery. le communicated with Gartield, and, on tho telegraphic request of Henry E, Knox, cate to this city and submitted to Col, Biss a dozen letters he had recelved from Gen, Garfield, one of which was chosen to compare the exhibits and foe-siintlo coples of the Morey Ictter with, ‘The letter was chosen by Billss, but ho did not = know it was picked out because It resembled the letter of denial from Garfleld to Marshall Jewell, but thought it was chosen becausu it was nearest to it In date, When shown tho Morey letter ho examined it closely, and did not think it was Garfletd’s writing, though thero was some resemblance, On cross-oxamination ho stated that le was an Assistant Quartermaster in the army, specially detailed to take charge of National eemoteries; that Ms present appointment was due to Gen, Gartleld’s Jnterest in him, ho having been a classmate of his, and that he ‘was greatly Indebted to him, ALDENT DAQGETT, ox-Sheriff of Kings County, testifled that he knew Philp for seven years, aud knew his handwriting. .On looking at the manuscript copy of the article published In ruth, ene titled “ Lying and Sticking to It,” ho said it was in Philp's handwriting, and, on compare ing It with Morey’s letter, he thought they wore In the samo handwriting. Ho wasn strong Republican, and had large sums wagered on Gartlold’s election.

A SPEECH FOR GARPINLD, Syectat Dispatch to The Chicoge ‘Tribune. New Yon, Oct. 23.—Thero was 0 meoting - to-niaht at Cooper Institute of a number of that portion of the Republican party who destgnate themselves Independents, The immediate enuse for the gathering was tho announcement that Mr. Charles Francl3 Adams,dr, of Massachusetts, would on this occasion give hls reasons for voting at the approaching election for Gon, Garilekh As Mr. Adams had in the previous caimpalgn been a stanch supporter of Mr, ‘Tilden, and had up to within a recent date, given his adherence to tho party of “Change,” and does not even now consider hhuself an Independent — Republie- an, but san tndependent. voter, only, without pariy alliances,—that Is, reserv- Ing to hinself the right to eritlelse cither side or praise Duth, just as he-feels inclined, —there was not that spontaneous outpouring to listen to his remarks that is characteristic of stralght-out Republican oceaslons. There wero perhaps 2,500 people in the hall, . Mik, HORACE WINTE Introauced the Chafrman, Gen, Brayton Ives, who mado a short uddress, Ie was followed by Wayne MucVeagh, of Philadel- phia, and President Jullus IL, Seelye, of Am- herst College. Mr. Adams was then intro- «luced, and made the principal address of the evening.
