Mr. Hutchinson, the foreman of the jurors, having been called, passed up to the court the following: MR, DICKSON TO THE GRAND JURY. WASHINGTON, D.C., October 2, 1882. E. S. Hutchinson, esq., Foreman of the’ Grand Jury: Sin: T was drawn asa juror upon the regular panel of the March term of the Criminal Court, and. at the sacrifice of my business Interests and personal heaith, reluctantly accepted the service and falthfuily performed the unpleasant duty as- signed me until the end of the term. In June the star route case cameon for trial, and, notwithstanding my earnest protest, I was accepted and the law and . During the progress of the trial I wasapproached by an agent of the Department of Justice, na Henry C. Bowen, who represented to me that he was authorized to see me in reference to the case. He made a dishonest proposition, offering to pay 25,000 to intluence the verdict. The following (August 211h) he forwarded a card to my address, making an appointment. I immediately reported the transaction to Judge Wylie, and in- formed hittn of what had transpired. ‘The crime 1s of that character which affects the Tights and liberties of the citizen, and ts of such importance that I respectrully but earnestiy re- quest that your honorsble body should investizate the charge, and that T may be summoned before you to présent the facts, supported by corrobo- rating proofs ‘Tam, sir, very respectfully, yours, 1am Dicgson, REMARKS OF THE COURT. ‘The court, after perusing 1t carefully and read- ing portions of It twice over, asked “Did the grand jury receive this paper?

The case of Arthur Payne, charged with attempt- ing to Influence the vote of a juror (Brown) in the star route cht up in the Polte after 12 o’c . Mr H.C. Padgett, €, and H. E. for the dei Ker for the ¢ Mr. Sloan, of the Depart ment of Jus ras seated with the goveramer counsel. Payne's wife sat by the side of her hus- band instde the Before the case was begun, Col. Ingersoll presented the aMdavits for which he had received subpoenas. They were the afMfida- vits of Brown, Foote and Laws. A subpeena, at the request of Mr. Wells, was issued for Mr. A. B. Wil- Hams to projuce the’ affidavits of Foote and son. While awaiting the production of these aft- davits, MR. WELIS OPENED THE CASE by saying that the cases were brought under sec- tions 5,404 and 3,399 of the Revised Statutes. He then read the warrant, which sets forth the offer made by Payne to pay $2,500 to Juror Brown to corruptly affect his action fn the star route trial. pAjhles of not guilty was entered In behalt of Payne, Mr. Wells offered a certified record of the empan- heling of the star route jury, thelr names, the time when they went out and the time they came in with their verdict. BROWN’S TESTIMONY. Mr. Wells called for the first witness W. K. Brown, who testifled that he was a juror in the star rolute case; that he had known the defendant about eight yedrs, and that during the trial, about July Ist, he went up to see Payne In response to a note received from him, afd then they had a con- versation about the trial In the conversation Payne told witness that if he acceded wime: would get $2,500 from Fall, a lawyer, on D street. A few days after he saw the agreement which Fall had made and sent to him by Payne. This copy, the witness sald, Payne had destroyed. “Payne told me it was a copy, and safd Fall had the original. He said no money was paid to him. Witness had another conversation with Payne at his house September 2ith, and there told Payne that he had heard that Fail had tried to get Payne to swear that he (the witness) had asked Fall to send to him, and Payne said he would not swear to such a thing, as itwas notso. He admitted that he made a proposition to witness during the tria! ‘The cross-examination was conducted by Mr. Davis, who asked how the witness heard the ru- that he spoke to Payne about. He sald that me by anonymous note, and he did not know sent it to him. He got the note September. Wy Payne the nextday. He might have ne that some one had told lim of this ru- mor, The witness sald that he did not believe that they intended to give him the money, butit was simply a conspirecy to put him in thé peni- tentiary. 5 d Payne ever try to influence your Mr. Davis conduct asa jutor? Witness.—He hever did. I simply treated him as a messenger. alt, Davis—Did you ever recelve any money in s case Witness.—Not a cent. Tn reply to a question about his business he sata that he kept a grocery store for his father, who had gone on a note for him to stock the store. He sald that his father owned the store, and he had borrowed the money. rie Davis.—How does your father own the store then’ “He thinks that he does,” was the reply that gave rise toa laugh. 2 ‘AN OBJECTION. Mr. Davis—Have you always made the same statement about your interview with Payne? Mr. Wells objected, and the court sustained the objection and sald that some time and place must be specified. ‘The question as to whether the witness swore that when Pa ayne showed him the paper he was £0 mad that he did not recollect what the paper was, ‘was ruled out. The counsel for the defense asked for the coy of Brown's affidavit incorporated in Mr. Wells’ revere and it not being produced they issued a subpoena for its production by the Attorney Gene eral. THE INGERSOLL AFFIDAVIT. ‘Mr. Davis asked the witness if he took an affle davit before J. F. Olmstead. He said that he had. Mr, Wells said that this was the Ingersoll affi- davit, which he had not seen. The court sald that the counsel should show the affidavit to the witness. Finally a SOD s was produced and wasread. The witness said that the state- ment that the agreement was signed by Fall was nottrue. That was Col. Ingersoll’s mistake, who Wrote, ae amet : ir. Davis.—Was the agreement presented to you one With F. H. Fall? . a ‘Witness.—Mr. Fall’s name was not there, and I do not recollect whether Juror ’s name was mentioned or not.
