His Relation to the Star Route Cases. ME, W. A. COOK'S CONNECTION WITH THOSE CASES—THE ADJOURNMENT OF THE GRAND JURY, ETC. To-day on the opening of the Criminal Court, Judge Cox, and before the arguments in the star route case Were resumed, District Attorney Cork- hill asked to make a personal explanation, and ‘spoke as follows: May it please the Court: I should not on this oc- casion interrupt the present discussion and ask the indulgence of the court and of counsel for the pur- pose of making a brief statement of a personal racter, were {t not that I1eel ft a duty Lowe Self, and that no occasion has presented heretofore and may not again 50 appropriate and opportune for what Iam about to say: Thave never found {f. necessary to answer any critictsia upon my oficial conduct, for 1 have Tested secure in the undisturbed confidence tha Ro yan, however high his official position, ot however humble may be his station 1n life, could nd would have been re- ad savin notified me there juiring th eir immediate ny of these “star-route ready, and that his reply was, that I had nothing todo with them, and that when m services or {hat of the grand’jury were wanted I would be no- Your honor will, I know, pardon me for taking the time of the court now in Making this state- ment, but I was compelied to take this opportu- nity, or by my silence give credence to mistake ‘nd misrepresentation concerning me, which I OF EXTRACT OF CELERY AND CHAMOMILE ‘UPox THE ‘NERVOUS SYSTEM AND DIGESTIVE ORGANS, AS INVARIABLY PRODUCED BY DR. ©.

I need not say to your honor that when a great criminal case attracts the attention of the coun- try, when the action of every one connected with iti known by the entire reading public of the United States; when every fact 1s dally 1, not as an itemn for the professional ‘Dut as @ matter of news of interest to the general public, it ls only necessary to light a spark of suspicion, and malignant ignorance and sometimes honest doubt soon fan ‘it into a flume of real distrust. Your honor may have noticed, as Tam certain the gentlemen connected with the case have, that I have been time and again publicly ch: with a want of interest in prosecution of the cases now 10F the first time presented to the ‘and that fn addition I have been relax, neglectful and jnattentive to my duty in reference to them, I should probably have let this pass with— out notice, leaving my vindication, it any were necessary, to the court, whose officer I am, and the people of the District, whom I represent.” But on last Saturday I noticed in the BVENING STAR What purports to be an autnentic account of a meeting of the Cabinet called by the President to consult with regard to the trial of the assassin of President Garfield, ‘The Attorney General, Mr. MacVeagh, Is represented as saying that he took a different view of his duty from that expressed by e President, and that he “did not con- Sider hitaself bound to take any part in the trial of Guiteau or to procure additional counsel for that purpose; that im the star-route cases Col. Corknill had ‘suggested a desire tor the employ ment of Mr. Wm. A. Cook as additional counse nothing to do with it, anc Col. he pleased in the matter. For the purpose of what I desire to say itis € tirely immaterial whether Mr. MacVeigh ever mnade this statement or not. It was telegraphed all over the country, and Will this morning be read 1a almost every city, village aud hamlet In the United States, and it will be taken as true, and this alleged statement of the Attorney General will be garded #3 accurate concerniug my relation to reg: these cases. In view of these f: I take this occasion, in the presence of your honor and of Col. Cook, the counsel for the government, publicly to state’ that on the Ist d: gun rogress in rtinent concerning certain alleged frauds In what known as the “ route contracts,” and that those pe in the Investization desired the employ Win. A. Cook to assist them, and that het Proper to notity me or Col. Cook's appointinent. ad a long conversation with him on the sub- | Ject, in which I told him the employment of Col. Cook Was satisfactory and agreeable to me, bit that I desired at the Very opening of the investi- ‘ation that my position be thoroughly and plainly jetined ; that I Was ready and willing to perform any service desired, but that the delay in the appointment Of a marshal had placed on me all the business I could attend to at once; that Col, Cook Was unquestionably competent to have full and exclusive charge of these cases. To this the Attorney General not only assented, but told me it was the view of the case he had al- ready taken, and that no officer situated as I was then could give the necessary time demanded by this Investigution. To put myself upon the record. so that there could be no question in the future, I asked him to allow me to make my statement In writing, which I df, and my letter wus publishe at the th In that letter T asked the appointinent of spec counsel who should have the management and control of these cases and prepare any indictments might be found. 1. Cook, who had been engaged in the exam- ination before, was formally appointed; he has never regarded himself as my assistant, as Is ordl- nartly the case in such employments, but clalms— and properly, under the circumstances—to be a special assistant attorney of the United States e juch being the facts, I have not been, nor was it understood 1 should be, consulted concern: ing the prosecution, and consequently I know nothing of them except what is known to the public. I have heard no evidence—have seen no ‘witness—nor hag any attorney consulted me con- Cpt eines Col. Cook’s consultadions have been with the At- torney General, whose assistant he properly claims tobe. I think Col. Cook will eorroborate me in this statement, from which it will be seen I could not in the remotest manner know anything of these cases, or be in the slightest degree responsl- bie for them in any way whatever. Another point following immediately upon this is the allegation that the present proceeding by information now before the court was made necee sary by the adjournment by me of the grand jury from the 19th of September. to the Bd. of October, and I have been charged by the press and thé public as responsible for the adoption of this method. This case, it seems, involves frauds com- mitted on a route cott to Santa Fe, New Mexico, in which {t issaid the statute of limitations would bar the prosecution on October 1, or within ten days of the time the grand jury adjourned. Your honor will recollect that on the 15th day, I think,of July last the same counsel that are here to- day for the defence came into court with the re- markable motion to compel the government to pre- sent thelr case to the grand Jury. On that occasion I stated that I knew nothing of these cases, and that Col. Cook was the only man who could speak for the government, and then and there, as your honor Will recollect, COL Cook stated that it was his in- tention, alter the summer va lon Was over and the immediate pressure of local business was dis- of, to present some cases to the grand jury. his was all I knew and I only knew it in common with your honor as the public. It was then my in- tention, as the court knows, to adjourn the grand jury to the first Monday of October, your honor Wing been tn the habit of returning’ from your summer vacation between the 20th of September and the 1st of October. The assault upon the President of the United Stites had, however, occurred, and while at the time his phystetans strong hopes of his re- covery, there was still serious doubts as to the final result.’ Your honor will recollect I had a consulta- tion with you upon the subject,and, under the grave circumstances, you decided that you would return on Monday, September 12, and that the grand jury could be adjourned till then, unless in the mean- time the President should die, and if deemed ne~ cessary, you would return at any time and recall the grand Jury and have the cade of thus resented, and that if this did not occur the grand ht be respited until October 3 from the opening of court on the 12th. Whereupon. the grand Jury were adjourned until the 12th of Sep- mber. Your honor returned at that time. We were galled together and remained in session until the 19th of September, doing no business whatever, except the examination of some witnesses in & small pension case, and were respited, in accord- ance with the previous understanding, for two weeks. At that time I did not know that there was any immediate intention to present any case to the grand jury. I had the best of reason to suppose there was not. m the —of September, a few days before the meeting of the grand jury, I called upon Attorney General MacVeagh and informed him that I would have no business for the grand J sembled, and if there was any of cases ready the yj weeks, and if not, I inten when it reas- ese star route could be used for three to adjourn them till the first Monday In October. He informed me that since the President's assassination he had not ‘iven these cases any dal attention; that I them need not bother eat at When my services or that of the jury’ were wanted, I would be notified by ms who had special charge of them. ‘umstances and facts the she company aguinst loss by the delay, in case the ide that the company has a right to ‘the stalls.
