Continuing after @ few seconds the witness said: “I promised that I would do anything; that I Would make an aMfdavit retracting or denying all that I had said wo Messrs, MacVeagh and James.” The witness was compelled to stop here and winked very hard to keep back the tears When he could control himself he continued, sayt Mr. Bosler came to the house about two’ o'clo thateafternoon. The witness made out a state- Ment which he gave to Dorsey. Dorsey fixed it up, changing some parts of it, and witness then Swore to it. The witness kept the original copy, and Itwus in his desk and among the papers token from his office aiter the last trial. When | WHAT BECAME OF THE PAPER sworn to the witness sald “Dorsey and Col.

THE JOINT PRODUCTION OF DOKSEY AND RERDELIL The witness then, taking the paper, read the portions which he had‘Written and the portions written by Dorsey. The statement of facts, as to his alleged interviews with Messrs. MacVeagh and James in {he capacity of a detective, really in the interest of Dorsey, &c., Was a joint composition DY the witness and Dorsey, Dorsey inserting a clause here and there, appareutiy for the purpose of Im- Ploving the story ind making !t more plausible. The closing paragraphs deciaring the witness’ Positive Knowledge that no relations of a corrupt | nature had ever existed between Dorsey and any | government oMctal, and justifying his (the wit- hess’) conduct in assuming ‘the role of detective, on the ground that the Attorney General was acting | 48 a detective to ruin ex-Senator Dorsey, was written by S. W. Dorsey. The opening raph about undertaking to | learn in the role of a detective what was the cause | Of the abuse of Dorsey in the newspayers, and the | getive ho tillty (of ex-Senator Clayton’ against -y, were also written by Dorsey. The witness Said that the stitement in the aMdavit that he (the witness) could lugitate perfectly and eontinu- ally did imitate Dorsey's handwriting was untrue. He had on two occasions been megs fy A to sign checks, but he had never attempted to imi- tate Dorsey’s handwriting. DISCUSSION. Mr. Merrick was proceeding with different parar Graphs of the affidavit, asking the witness after each as to {ts truth or falsity, when Mr. Ingersoll | made a speech, saying thatas he understood It the government was trying to show that thelrown | witness had sworn falsely. * MR. MERRICK’S REPLY, ‘Mr. Merrick said the witness on the stand had peculiar rights that did not belong to every wit- ness. Itwas due to the witness, to the govern- ment, and to honesty, truth and justice that the Wvernment should ofr tls aiarit in evidence, le proposed that this witness should lay himself Dare before this jury. He had proved how this aff iavit had been procured; Uhat it was ob- tained through the importunities and broken- hearted ns of 8S. W. Dorsey; be had shown that the iles that were iu Wt were tie colnage Of SW, Dorsey's brain. In the nameof public justice, and justice to the witness, had he not the right to in- terrogate the witness about the affidavit. Why should counsel on the other side fear to have this matter opened entirely. Mr. Ingersoll said that “if it could be ved that 8. W. Dorsey had written parts of afm. Gavit that it would be admissible.” He denied the right of the government after they had disquall- fed their own witness togo any further. Mr. Chandler made an argument against the right of the government to cross-examine the wit- ness and a recess was then taken. AFTER THE RECESS Mr. Bliss proceeded to argue against the points urged by Messrs. Ingersoll and Chandler. He was Proceeding to state that there was not so much perjury in the case of Rerdell’s signing this afMfi- davit as In aMdavits made by Dorsey. Mr. Davidge here interrupted Mr. Bliss, and ob- Jected to his denouncing a defendant. Mr. Bliss proceeded with his ancument, urging that in view of the fact that the affidavit in ques- Uon appeared to be an attempt by Dorsey to man- ufacture or conceal testimony, and in that view the government had a right ‘to make inquiries about It, + Mr. Ingersoll replied briefly. Judge Wylie Admits the Testimony. cide upon the credibility of a witness. This wit- neas, though, by withdrawing his plea of not guilty acknowledged himself to have peen en- gaged in a conspiracy to defraud the government Was not an incompetent witness. The jury were to judge of the weight to be given to ‘ls testi- mony. Speakt of the affidavit conflicting with Rer- deli's evidence, the court sald that was an extra- Judicial Was not technical perjury. The ub 5 evidence produced is not tor the purpose of im- peaching the witness, but of corroborating it and strengthening it, by Sager 3 his explanation. Dor- sey was one of the defendants. The acts or the defendants in connection with the subject of the fndictment were admissible in evidence. If he flees, or bribes a wit- ness, Uhat ls evidence, und the fact that a witness has been bribed, or atte npted to be bribed, does not disquallfy the witness from testifying against the defendant. So with this paper; It tended to | show that Dorsey, one of the delendants, had at- tempted to screen’ himseif by means of this aflida- vit, and he therefore considered the tesiliaony admissible. of Mr. Rerdell then proceeded. ~The examination ‘The witness repeated that he had never attempted | to imitate Dersey’s handwriting 1a signing checks. | He denied that he had exhibited any pencil mem- Oranda to Messrs. MacVeagh and James, as stated in the false affidavit. In answer to Mr. Merrick, who acked the defense to produce the books, Mr. Ingersoll said they did not propose to assist’ the witness by the produc- tion of the books. Rerdell was on the stand when our report closed. RERDELL’S AFFIDAVIT, ‘One of the counsel for the prosecution, speaking about Rerdell's “retracting aMfdavit,” said “The Prosecution’s boldly introducing this afMfidavit business has been a fearful blow to the defense, They relied on bringing it out on cross-examina- tion, and thus discrediting him before the jury. | Now he tells the whole story, and the defense can only look at the fireworks’ without helping to | shoot u fl.
