In your paper of last evening appeared an artl- cle which does great Injustice to the government printing office as well as to myself. Tue-writer of the article in question states that I have been In the habit of loaning money at ten per cent, and that the paymaster has deducted the sums when due from the pay of the borrowers; th Who submitted without complatat becom with the office, &. ‘The above is am hood.

To the Editor of Tae Evextx@ Stan: Mr. Cadet Taylor, the chief clerk of the Govern- ment Printing Oftice, says in this morning’s Post, in reply to my article of yesterday, that only “un- skilled labor” was discharged at the establish- ment named. Now, as the persons dismissed, with the exception of a few poor women, were alto- gether printers, bookbinders and pressmen, the term “unskilled labor” can only mean “poor work- men.” ‘This is the meaning of it, and it is the meaning Mr. Taylor intends it shail convey. I am not surprised that men mean enough, cruel enough, contemptible enough to perpetrate the acts complained of should try to shield themselves behind a falsehood. But they cannot. Nearly every one of those discharged are noted for their skill in their vocations; and 8 per cent are Dis- trict men and women. ‘Facts are facts, and if they condemn the offenders, lying shall not avail them PRINTER, —— From A Hook-Binder. To the Editor of Tue EVENING Star. The very well written and truthful article in rinter” has called forth an an- half of the numerous discharged book-binders, to in that department. I will state, In the first place, that a majority of the men discharged are natives of the District or have been living here so long In government employ that they have lost thelr resi- dence in their respective states. A large number of the book-binders learned their trade in the gov- ernment printing office, and have hitherto been kept in their places on account of their familiarity with the Kind of work that was required from the office, which was of the very kind. A’ majority of the book-binders who have been discharged have always been con- sidered skilled workmen until the present political linols. ‘Now, in answer to his denial of the appropriation not being large enough to carry them through the year, they will please #nswer Why so many men are put on night and extra work so they will not lose any time when they go off to vote. "If the men want to Yote we do not see why they should be given extra Work, while We poor non-voters are summarily dis- charged, and some of us without a penny in our pockets.’ Last winter, when Mr. Rounds went be- Tore the House committee on appropriations to ask for @ defciency and the yearly appropriations, which were larger than usual, as he did not want tocripple the office by making discharges, Mr. Atkins, the ex-chairman of the committee, got up and made a speech in behalf of the new superin- tendent, and asked is party friends to jotn him and give Mr. Rounds what he asked. Ii is to be hoped when Congress meets that Mr. Atkins or some other member will introduce a resolution in Congress, calling on the superintendent to know why these men were discharged, and why a ani number of voters were put on extra and night work 0 as to enable them to go off and vote with- out loss of time. In making the discharges It seems that the poor men were selected, and those who have other and lucrative business’ outside of the office were reta! Book BINDER, Affairs in West Washington.

Clagett and Lipscomb for the pi er, District Attorney Corkhitl for the government. On Sunday, January 16th, 1881, ‘Shaw visited his sister's house and informed her husband (Carter) that his (Shaw’s) grandmother was very low. Carter went for his wife, and,a basket being filled, Shaw, with his sister, started on the street cars for Uniontown. On the following morning the de- ceased was found on the road leading to her mother's residence in an Insensible condition, and was taken Washington asylum, where she died on the same month The case was Mareh last before Judge Wylie, and a number of witnesses were examined, and {t was shown that Shaw applted to the polics precinct in Uniontown for lodgings on thenight of the 16th; that he had not come from his grandmother's, &. A number of exceptions were taken, the most important of which was one to the admisston of the evidence of Officer Anderson as to a confession of Shaw to the effect that the witness held a conversation with prisoner. Asked him who was with him? He sald two men; one by the name of Davis, whom he de- scribed as a tall, yellow man, with straggling whiskers; the other was a thickset black man. He said the men came up to him and_his sister In Ualontown. Davis came first and walked along with his sister, and then the black man came up. Davis asked him (prisoner) if his sister had any money. He sala yes; she usually had when she went to her grandmother's He asked him if they robbed his sister the (prisoner) would say anything about it. He sald, “No.” One of the men then struck her with a stone; Davis knocked her down. They gave him (prisoner) one dollar not to say anything about it. One of them threw her basket into a field, which one the witness did not remember. The prisoner did not say how she was struck, but both men were around. The witness then further testified that Sergt.MeCathran and the man Davis were in the jail at the time, and that McCathran sometimes walked over to where wigness and pris- oner were conversing. Witness mforeover swore that he offered no inducements nor threats to pris- oner, but that he did not give him any warning hor caution as to his conversation or admissions. ‘The defendant claims that the court having ruled out th» evidence of Lieut Boteler, who had sald to tue prisoner “There Is no use of denying it, we have got it fixed,” the evidence of Anderson was also inadmissible, as he was under the orders of Boteler; that {fa statement is obtained by undue means any statement afterwards made under in- fluence of that confession cannot be admitted, ‘The court to-day affirmed the judgment below, and Shaw will most likely be hanged at the date ‘specified.
