Cross-Examination of Ex-Senator Dor- sey Continued, When the star route trial was resumed this morning ex-Senator Dorsey took his place again apon the stand, and Mr. Merrick continued the cfoss-examination. The witness did not remem- ber whether when he gave directions to Boone in 1878 about tre preparation of bids he gave him any instructions about the number of trips or the length of the routes upon which he was to prepare bids. He had no recollection of such a conversation as Boone detalied about this matter, but was unwill- ing to say that it did not occur. Witness recol- lected that Boone told him he had destroyed a large number of bids on routes having over three trips a week. They were destroyed because they were unable to give certified checks to the amount that would be required if such routes were awarded to them. Witness did not recollect that he hdd Instructed Boone to destroy these bids. MR. INGERSOLL'S REPLY TO A NOTICE TO PRODUCE CERTAIN LETTERS. Mr. Ingersoll stated that he recelved a notice served on 8. W. Dorsey to produce in court this morning a letter-press ¢opy book containing let- lers written or signed by him bearing date May 18th, 1879, and “December 9°h, 1878. “Our reply to that,” said Mr. Ingersoll, “1s that we have xo let- ter book containing any press copy of any letter written by 8. W. Dorsey on the 9/K day of Decem- ber, 1878, to John W. Dorsey. We have a letter written, 'a copy of which we will produce, written on the 7th of December, 1878, to John W. Dorsey. We have no press copy book containing any letter written on the 13th day of May, 189, appertatuiag directly or indirectly to this business.” Mr. Buss suggested that if tals notice was to be replied to in this way the reply should be made under oath. Mr. Ingersoll raised the point that this notice was to produce secondary evidence, and he argued that such a notice would not lay the foundation for proving the contents of the letters by other Secondary evidence. Messrs. Merrick and Biss argued at some length in support of the notice they had given. Mr. Ingersoll dented the right of the prosecution to the letter books. JUPGE WYLIE’S RULING. After considerablo discussion Judge Wyle said it was a general rule that a defendant was not bound to produce any evidence against himszlt. A notice would be given him to produce an original paper, and if he fatied to produce it the prosecution could prove its contents by secondary evidence. The defendant might have then second- ary evidence that would be more satisfactory than that in the possession of the prosc- cution, but by ‘the same rule he was not bound to produce tt. So at last the prosecution ‘Was (riven to its own secondary evidence. But no secon dary evidence of any kind ean be given of the contents ofa paper unless previous notice 1s given to produce the original, unless the purpose of the secondary evidence Was given to adduce the defendant’s admission that the original had existed. In such a case the, prosecution might have a right to give notice to produce this cvi- dence, but that wouid not compel the production of it. In this case he thought the notice was confined to strictly secondary evidence, He was of option that the notice here to produce letter-press books, without reference to a particular letter, was too vague. It did not designate any letters that Seemed-to be relevant to the case. The defendant Was not bound to produce letters not relevant to the case. The notice should have described some letter in such a way that thg court could decile from the notice whether it waS relevant. Mr. Bliss observed that when a witness went on the stand he could be compelled to give oral or written testimony bearing upon the case. Judge Wyle satd that in such case the defen- dant Was bound by the same rules as any other witness. DORSEY'S LETTER-PRESS BOOK MUTILATED, The witness satd his clerk had searched to see If he could find a letter dated December 9, 1878, but had not found it. His letter-press.copy book wns } mutilated there and elsewhere. Witness’ clerk had also looked for a copy of a letter to Bosler, gated 18, 1879, but. had been unable to find Mr. Merrick asked the witness if his letter book &f that point appeared to be mutilated. Mr. Ingersoll objected that the witness could not be made to testify as to papers of that kind,alieged to be in the possession of the defense. Mr. Inger- soll sald thelr theory was that Rerdell had written these letters and torn them from the letter book, and they were now In the possession of the govern- ment. During the course of the discussion he de- clared that THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NEVER SEB THESE BOOKS, no matter if they contained only poctry about spring. Judge Wylie gitd Mr. Merrick could ask his question, A ‘The witness said_ he had found: his books mut!- Inted at the date of May 43th, 1879, and hail dis- overed that in all over .600 pages of nis letter ‘book had becn tora. out. . A CHECK GERMAN AMERICAN BANK, = ‘The witness. BAld he had -looked for a check for $562.50, payabléto P. G. Reynolds, sent to John W. Dorsey, and drawn on the German-American bank, July 2, 1678, but had not found it. He had not looked at his bank book. Mr. Keyser, receiver of the German-American National bank, here pro- duced a large account book. This was shown to the witness, who testified, viearlously, through Mr. Ingersoll, that there appeared a chu against him dated July 25, 1878, of $562.50. Mr. Keyser. was then swern, and testitied that the book was the ledger account of the bank. ‘The witness had no recoileetion of seeing ‘Moore more than once, of 1878, A.W. and that was in the spring DORSEY’S RECOLLECTION.
