In order to juige of tue defendant's conduct in relation to this case it will be necessary to give our attention, in detail, to his conversations with his fellow-jurors immediately after the alleged Bowen interview. He spoke of Bowen’s attempt to bribe him to several jurors on 43 street, and showec them his statement, reading portions of it. Juror MeNelly says, page 29 of testimony-in- chief: “On 43¢ street One morning I was coming up in company with Mr. Cox and Doniphan. Mr. Dickson came across the street and he made the startling announcement that he had been at- tempted to be bribed. He safd the man who made the attempt was Bowen. I told him I did not take any stock in {t; that I thought it was a sec- ond safe-barglary affatr. Again, this witness says: “A few days after this conversation I was coming up Loutsiana avenue and Mr. Dickson called to me and opened that subject. Dickson said that he did not believe that it Was an attempt at bribery, but it was done to find ‘out how he stood In this case.” (Page 80, Mr. Nelly’s testimony.) ‘The same ‘statement is re- peated On cross-examination. (Page 35. Juror Cox, p. 57 of his testimony, says: “He saw the Dickson paper the week previous to its being Tead in the jury room; that Doniphan, McNelly and himself were standing at the corner of A street and Louisiana avenue, when Mr. D cksoa approached them. He said that he had been of- feredt a bribe of $25,000 by a ian by the name of Bowen. He then (pulled out a paper and read a portion of it concerning this bribe.” ‘This, he says, was about & Week D-fore he saw the paper in thé 1 yary room. Hugh T. Murray testifies that Dickson read his statement to him on 41 street, in presence of jurors Cox, Tobriner and Olcott, and that Dickson Sald that he thought Bowen said what he did to find out how he stood, or was going to vote, Juror Olcott swears'he heard the paver read at the time, referred to by Murray, and that he told Dickson" that he did not think the government bribed jurors, and that tt was a Job put up by the detensé. Dickson replied “It might turn out so;” “perhaps it Was so,” but he was not certain of te language. The case Was committed to the fury September 8 at @ few minutes before 3 o'clock p.m. After some preliiainary matters had been dispoced of Mr. McNelty swears he objected to the reading of the paper—that it was not offered In evidence before the jury, nor given the jury by the court. After readiny the paper Dickson ratsed bis right hand and sald something “about God striking him fe Juror Doniphan swears to the strong language used by Dickson in vouching for the truth of the per, Other Jurors sp-ak of the strong language used by the defendant on this occasion, though they do not agree in the exiet words employed. Juror Cox suys: “We had been in the room may be two or three hours, when Mr. Dickson pulled {t (the paper) out of his coat pocket. He sutd he hed a paper that he wished to read to the jury. Mr. MeNelly objected. Tcalled for a vote, waetner It Should be read or not—and it was voted to allow the read.ng, ani Mr. Dickson read it.” Juror Cox swears he declared before the jury “that he did hot wish to be wcltizen of the United States any longer 1f what he (Dickson) read was true.” Mr. pon his feet and sat: “May ine dead Ievery word In that paper is ” “This witness further swears he and Dickson did net vote the same way on the ques- un of gu lt or innocence. Having stated Ue evidence of what was said ant dos? about Unis paper before and after the Cause Woes ubmitted to the jury, we will now con- sider what the desendant sald’ about 1f ater the verdict. A‘ter the trial Dickson held several con- tons with the witness Kennedy, and one WU) witness Lowe, of the National Republican, Kennedy te-tifl& p. 63 of his evidence, that he conve vit Dickson about the attempt at bri- bery character of Bowen. Dickson said he did not <a man like the Attorney General or Brewster dany knowledge of the at- tempt to br. je Was aske t, Was any thing s: to the purposes whieh ‘he (Dickson) Ahad in approcching him 2”) K find out whether he (Dickson) wasa k fools” “Dickson,” he says, “read the original j to him the day le came out of the jury room.” ‘The rematnine witness, whose wstimony 1s of importance, is Mr. Lowe, of the National Republi- can. Mr. Lowe testifies that he had several con- Versations| with Mr. Dickson about the 1th or 12th. “He sald he believed Bowen came to him to find out whether he (Dickson) contd be bought; that Bowen had no intention of offering iin that amount of money stated, but simply to find out whether he could be bribed, and fo usé it as an Influence.” Dickson stated he be- ‘n made his proposition ot bis own Volition without any higher authority. This Witness states the names of several prom- inent men who were present at this con- Yersation, none of whom were called to contradict im. Mr. Dickson, in his testimony, does not deny the conversations held with the different on the occastons referred to, but he $ that he has been correctly interpreted and understood, In view of all the evidence on this part of the case, 1tscems established by a decided prepon- derehce of proot— 1st. That during the week prior to September 8th, Dickson did not regard Bowen’s approach to him in apy other light than as an attempt to find out how he stood and would vote, and not as an attempt to bribe. 2nd. ‘That immediately after the verdict and dis- charge of the jury, he viewed the affair in the © light and exonerated the Department of Justice sind even Brewster Cameron from any knowledge of, or Tesponsibility for Bowen's con- duct, and yet on the 8th we find him producing this paper, reading it before the Jury after two in- formal ballots had been taken upon the guilt or innocence-of the accused, and youching for Its trath in every Word in the’ strongest language at his command, Asan, in_ evolving Dickson’s purpose from his coniluet, we may inquire why he produced and read this paper at all. It was not unknown to the fury that tis alleged attempt had been made. He had told at least Six jurors personally of the betore, ¥.z,: McNelly,Cox, Olcott, ‘robriner, phan, and Murray. “Is it’not probable the other six Knew it? Had not the judge charged them Not to raise this question tn tie jury-roo;? Why Was thls time selected, when the Jurors were about to enter upon the Serious and critical dis- cussion and determination of the questions tn- volved in the case? ‘The defendant had re the facts to Judge Wylie and asked his advi his charge the judge had exhorted the jury in earnest words to be brave and true, and render their verdict upon the evidence in the ca Tegarding the question of brib it seenis evident that the de pose In thus disreg: court, which atall ri endant hada pur- rding the directions of the leteriniued to carry into ef fec What other purpose could he ave unless Ss to I an inftveuce upon the minds of hts fellow Jurors in giving their ver- aie Was this purpose a corrupt purpose?

When Judge Snell finished reading at 12:35 p.m., and then called attention to the question of Dall “I would ask, if your honor please,” sald Mr. Wells, “that bail be fixed, as before, at $2,500,” “The ball may stand,” said Judge Snell, “the same as before. “Mr, Dickson, If not prepared this moment, Inay Come in Uils afternoon or to-morrow morning.” Mr. Smith, counsel for Dickson, at once sent a Messenger for Mr. Dickson's bondsmen, Messrs. E. E. White and James L. Barbour. A few intnutes later Mr. Cuppy stated to the court that word had been received from Mr. White, and it would not be convenient for hum to come to court to-day. Judge Snell said {t would be satisfactory to him if the bondsmen appeared to-morrow morning. Mr. Cuppy then renewed lis request that the other case against Mr. Dickson, the charge of con- spiracy against Messrs. Dickson and Driver, be disposed of, and he inquired of the representative of the government what he proposed to do about that case. Mr. Wells Said that if he were called into court to-morrow morning when bail was given he would be able to determine what he would do. He would either proceed with the case or let 1t fo. “You mean,” sald Mr. Cuppy, “that you will either take up the case for action ‘or dismiss it?” “Certainly,” said Mr. Wells. Alter some further discussion tt was decided that all parties concerned should come into court to-morrow morning. ‘THE MANAGERS of the ‘National Homes for dis- abled volu; ‘T solalers will meet at Willard’s to- morrow.
