Ex-Postmaster General James a Wit ness, The star route trial was resumed to-day after a Tecess since last Friday. 3. B. PRICE UNABLE TO_ATTEND AS A WITNESS. Mr. Wm. A. Cook, who was present, rose in court and sald Col. J. B. Price had been informed that his attendance was desired in court to-day. He wanted to say that he had Information that Mr. Price was unable to attend and was suffering from a cancerous affection of the eyes, “The no- tice to him,” continued Mr. Cook, “Indicated that unless he appeared an attachment would be asked. | T merely row call it to your honor’s attention and through your honor to counsel for the government, so that {if any application 13 made for an attach: ment your honor will be acquainted with the facts.” “ Col. Price,” sald Mr. Merrick, ‘agreed when he left, that he would come on a telegram from me at Any time, He Is co-operating with the gov- ernment and wilttng to attend. We telegraphed him at Philadeiphta. Tshall not move for an at- tachment, unless {t becomes absolutely necessary to protect ourselves from being foreclosed.” Mr. Codk, upon this explanutton, flied the cer tificate ot Mr. Price’s surgeon with’ the clerk, and the trial proceeded. EX-POSTMASTER GENERAT, JAMES ON THR STAND. Hon. T. L. James, ex-Postmaster General, was then called to the stand. He sald, tn reply to questions by Mr. Bliss, that when he met Rerdell on the train coming from New York, on the 13th of June, Rerdell showed him two telegrams which witness read. “By whom did these telegrams purport to be signed?” asked Mr. BUSS. id Mr. Ingersoll, “because that should n&ve been a part of the government’scase- tn-rhier.” Mr. Merrick then proceeded to argue for the ad- milssion of the evidence. He claimed that thts testimony could not, nnder the rulings of the court, have been introduced upill SW. Dorsey went on the stand, as It could not be proved until then that S. W. Dorsey had sent the dispatehes, the government not being able to call Dorsey to the stand, Mr. Ingersoll maintained that because a fact wes difficult for the government to prove, gave no excuse for the Introduction of evidence iu chiet at this time, Mr. Wiison argued that the government did not clatin to show that the telegrams handed to Mr. James were the telegrams sent by Mr. Dorsey. He urged also that this testimony did not rebut auy- thing offered by the defense. Mr. Bliss argued that the Mdentity of the tele- grams was suflciently established whey it was shown that Dorsey did send two telegrams to be delivered to Rerdeli on the train, and Rerdell re- ceived two telegrams on the train, purporting to be signed by Dorsey, and showed them, as soon as they were delivered to him, to Mr. James. He submitted that it was a matter entirely In the dls- cretion of the court, and that the government should be entitled now to prove the contents of the telegram. Mr. Henkle and Mr. Ingersoll also argued further against admitting tbe evidence. CONTENTS OF THE DISPUTED TELEGRAMS. ‘Mr. Merrick sald 1t would not be sala whether this evidence was rebutting or not until the con- tents of the telegrams became known. He sald he could state the contents If tt was desired. “state the contents,” said Mr. Ingersoll, Xo, no, no,” said Mr. Wilson. “There seems to be a difference of opinion,” said Mr, Merrick. “I recognize Mr. Ingersoll,” said Judge Wylie, “aa the special representatye of Mr. Dorsey. “Tho first telegram,” said Mr. Merri rat least one of the telegrams, was to this effect: "Get off the train at once and return to New York,’ and I think that ‘all ts forgtven.’ ‘The other was: ‘Return at once to New York. For God's sake do nothing to injure me and my famlly.’” Here Mr. Merrick stopped a second or two, while Mr. Bliss prompted him in an undertone, and then contin- ued, yiving the contents of the telegram, “Do not persevere In Your course.” “Anything else?” inquired Mr. Davidze. “That ts my recollection,” said Mr. Merrick; “I haven't talked with Mr. James for some time.” Mr. Merrick then argued at_some length” for the admission of the evidence, reviewing the circuin- stances In proof surrounding these telegrams, Ruling of the Court. After an argument by Mr. Davidge Judge Wyle said he thought if the evidence was admitted 1t would be evidence only against Dorsey, as it was to oppose an admission by Dorsey after the acts of the alleged conspiracy had occurred. Undoubtedly the court had discretion to arrange the order in which tesilmony should be received, and the court would exercise such discretion, {f coun- sel would say that by Inadvertenco that they had omitted to give In evidence testimony that they considered of Importance. In this case, however, there Was no ground for the claim of inadvertence, as counsel did not say that, they had overlooked the need of this evidence if It could be obtained. On the crossexamination of Dorsey the fact was brought out that he did send two telegrams. Counsel did not ask him what the contents of the telegrams were. Possibly, if they had asked hit, and he had answered untruly, they might have Offered evadence to contradict him. ‘The court overruled the offer. OBJECTION BY MR. INGERSOLL. Mr. Biss then proceeded with the examination of Mr. James, The witness said when he Went to New York at the time mentioned he met Mr, ‘Newcomb at the depot and gave him certain di- rections, Mr. Ingersoll here objected, and Mr. Bliss sald he was not golng to ask what directions were given. Judge Wyle said _he had considered again the devision of the court excluding Newcomb's testi- mony, and had concluded that the court was right. r. Bliss called attention to an authority on the subject, Mr. Ingersoll said that this testimony of New- Sombd if admitted would show, only that Rerdeil had led when he said he weni to Dorsey's office about 12 o'clock. Mr. Bilss said that he had stated that they ex- pected to prove that Rerdell went to the office about 10 o'clock. Mr. Ingersoll said that if they expected to prove that by the witness Newcomb they would find themselves mistaken. ‘The government wanted to Introduce a witness now to prove that Rerdell had gone directly from the depot to Dorsey's oMce. Mr. Merrick sald he did not_know where Mr. In- gersoll got his information, but the wil hess had told him (Mr. Merrick) that Rerdell had rot gone directly to Dorsey's office. ‘The tm- portant event of the day was the visit to the of. ice, and they proposed to contradict Torry and Mullins by showing that Rercell had gone there, and gone there an hour after the office was opened, He remarked with a touch of frony that he would be very glad if the rules af evidence were s0 rigid as to require exactness and deflaiteness in hours or dates regarding matters which a witness ought to remember.

Two of these shares may be regarded as good against the company, but the others being dupll- cate shares are of no value, notwithstanding the money was paid to Bigelow. It also shows that the treasurer paid to Bigelow $5,000, to. be turned over to the Riggs estate on account of the land debt, which he failed to pay, but this is charged against the treasurer, RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE COMMITTEE. ‘The report,which was adopted, recommends that the Girectors offer for gale the five houses still owned by the company ant {ts unimproved land in square 363, between R,S, 9h and 10th streets northwest; that the treasurer pay the company the $5,000 noted above as having been given to Big- elow, for which he has no proper voucher; that all sums paid beyond the forty-second assessment be refunded, 89 a8 to place all on equal footing as having paid’ $420 on each share; and as soon as the assets are realized upon the Doard of directors shall pay the outstanding Indebtedness and di vide the remainder pro rata among the stockhold- ers entitled to recelve it.

F. Bigelow. To the Editor of Tue Eventwo Stan: Wasuinarox, D. C., April 17, 1883. From a statement 1n one of the morning papers as to a meeting of the Citizens’ Building company held last evening, and a report of an exatmtulng committee of ts books, It would leave the pubite to belfeve that I had misapplied or converted to my own use a large sum Of the company’s money, and am imdebted to them for a like amount, whereas such 13 not the case, for every dollar celved by me can be shown as having been paid over to the treasurer or used In the purchas= of stock for the benefltof the company, which has been canceied and ceased to be a Habtitty. If 1 had received the amount charged as being pall to me and not turned over to the treasurer on ac- count of stock, ‘hen the Mabitities of the company on that account would appear to be larger than Said amount pald, bat such ts not the case, but “vice Versa ;” the amount pald treasurer on of stock 1s larger than this committee makes! 1 bilities on account of stock issued, stiowing that every doilar representing a Itability ‘on account of stock has been pald over, and, further, I have now bills against the company paid by me from its funas (not shown In this report) to the amount of some twelve to fiteen hundred dollars, of which the committee has had notice and agreed to allow. Tn concluston, permit me to say that every act of mine, a3 an officer of this company, has been done for Its best good, and I have never applied a dollar of tts runds to my own use, and have never specu- lated in its stock, nor accepted any fee or beneft from the office held by me (except the salary per- taining to sald office). Even for this no debit ap- Pears On its books since 1878. Owing to my long and serious flIness I have not been able to give its affairs the attention I should if I had been well, but I am satisfied that when the accounts are care- fully gone over and compared with me everything will be found as correct, especially as to any in- debtedness on my part to the company. , BigeLow, Respectfully, &:., ge WASHINGTON CATTLE MaRKeT.—At the Queens- town drove yards, on the Metropolitan branch, B. £0.
