After agreeing to be ready for a test of their shutters by a given date, but when the time approached asked for an exter of time and also for a modification of width. $ was refused, as the width of shutters specified was that actually required for the butlding.

L, to the Philadelphia Press of to-day, states that the illness of Senator Anthony 1s more serious than at first supposed, He tsreported to be suffering from unemie polson= ing. During the session of the Senate last winter Mr. Anthony was trequently noticed sitting by himself with a very abstracted manner, and this Peeull tity has been sill more frequently ob- served since bis return home. When he was stricken down on Saturday his Intellect. appeared considerably clouded, but bis mind seemed rather clearer yesterday. ‘the doctor hopes to conquer this attack, but fears are expressed on every hand that the disease will eventually prove fatal. Senator Anthony was 63 years old on the frst day of this month. During his 93 years in the United State Senate, he has been very popular in Wash- ington soclety, and his present physical condition isno doubt due, 1n a large me 0 high living. It he lives, Senator Anthony will enter upon his Dith term When the Senate meets again, SWINDIING PENSION AGENTS.—The commissioner of pensions has tssued a circular, stating that complaints have reached his office that unscrupu- lous persons are traveling throughout the coun- try claiming that they are authorized to represent tie comuisstoner of pensions, and that they have defrauded penstoners and appiteants for penstons. No special examiner or other person employed by the pension office 18 authorized to recelve money either as fee or expenses, and all such examiners are provided with certificates bearing the signa- ture of the commisstoner of penstons and the retary of the Interfor. Therefore, 1f any person, in the absence of such authority, should represent that he ts a spectal examiner of the pension offic or shall demand or obtatn money under aay pre- tense whatever, he may be safely set down as a fraud and swindler, and among the worst of his class. Commissioner Dudley states that itis his | earnest desire that prompt and vigorous measures be taken to bring these offenders to justice. ‘Tue Tarp ARMY Corrs Uniow.—This union, the first of the kind, organized in 1862, will hold its annual meeting, May 6th, at the Astor house, New York city, but will adjourn without trans- mitting any business to meet at the Arlington, in this city, May 16th, at 2 o'clock p.m. ‘The board of directors (of which Marshal MeMichael, of this District, 18 a member) have ordered ‘this pro- gram, at the solicitation of many of the membera, ‘who desire to attend the Army of the Potomac re- union.

Mr. Ker this morning, when the star route trial was resumed, continued his address to the jury. He began with a consideration of the various facts in testimony relating to the St. Charles and Green- horn route. While commenting on this route and the orders on it, Mr. Ker sald that the defense here claimed that this country was growing rapidly. Witnesses said tt was growing rapidiy. Figures, however, never told a lie. As the railroads were built tow: sprung up, but the population came from sur- rounding places, The little villages about the country were drained. In that way Pueblo, on this route, grew up, but it grew at the expense of the surrounding country. The figures show that in 1679, when Brady ‘made the great majority of the orders of expedition, the rallroad towns were growing, but the receipts of the post offices in the Surrounding country fell off. In 1830, however, the receipts at Pueblo fell off and those’at ths sur- rounding offices grew, showing that tha. people gone who had been attracted to the railroad hi back to their old places again, In 1880 the receipts. Of ail these offices were leas than in 1879. 'WE MAKE NO BOAST OF BEING SOLID.” Mr. Ker next took up the Pueblo and Rosita route. On this route Miner in writing to a sub- contractor on the 19th of August, 1878, instructing him to get up petitions for increase and petitions for expedition separately, said: “We make no boast of being solid, but ‘can get what 1s rea- sonable.” ‘This was the route on which John W. Dorsey ‘made two conflicting affidavits on the same day, and sald in his testimony that he swore tothem because Rerdell sent them to hita from Washington, saying that he would destroy one and use the other. ‘They, however, had the testi- mony of hotel clerks at Greeley, Col.: Denver, Col, and other places, showing that Rerdell at that time was over a thousand miles away from Washington. Mr. Ker next took up the route from Garland to Parrott City, reviewing the occurences testified to in connection with this route. In that way occupy- Ing the time until r. cess, AFTER RECESS. After recess Mr. Ker continued his address. Mr. Ker consumed a great part of the afternoon session reviewing the evidence concerning the Garland to Parrott City route. —— The Suit Against the Marshal. THE TRANSACHIONS WHICH LED TO IT. ‘There 1s considerable comment among mem- bers of the bar as to the case of Fishman against Marshal MeMichael for damages laid at $10,000, entered op Saturday by Leon Tobriner for an {ile izure of goods. ‘The goods were attached as e of L. Kauffman, at the sult of Heck & ler, Instituted on January 30 last by Messrs. Cook & Co. The case having been prosecuted to Judgment, an execution was ordered to Issue, and the Writ was placed in the hands of Mr. Gass, dep- uty marshal. Kanffman having failed and made an assignment to Zachariah Tobriner, the was sold to Fishinan, the brother-in-law of man, and the business was continued with Kaut- man, apparently, in charge. Under these ctrcum- stances tne judgment creditors advised the mar- shal to proceed to make the Judgment, giving an indemnifying bond satistactory to the marshal. ‘The writ was then ordered to be executed and placed In the hands of Deputy Gass, who went to the store, levied on certain goods in the basement, aud being desirous not to Interfere with the busi hess more than was Pecessary, the levy was made on overcoats, Mr. Fishman stating that he would replevy them, the goods were not removed from the buliding, and one bundle was shifted froma bench to a stool, and the coroner being sent for, te replevin was made. ee The Fenner-Nugent Homi: WITNESSES FROM KENTUCKY WANTED. To-day in the Spectal Criminal Court, Judge Macarthur, the case of Heury W. Fenner, charged with the murder of Samuel Nugent in September last, was called again on motion of his counsel, Mr. Walker, for an order for witnesses from Ken- inwhich state it 13 claimod that Fenner had been confined In an insane asylum. ‘The dis- | trict attorney stated his readiness to admit what | these witnesses Wouid testify to, but he was quite | sure that the prisoner knew right from wrong. The court took the motion under consideration. ——— The Trial Ihe ex-Detectives. TO GO OVER TO NEXT TERM OF COURT. This morning, in the Spectal Criminal Court, Judge Macarthur relieved Judge Magner, who goesto the CourtinGeneral Term. Judge Mac- Arthur stated that as he understood this Jury was elug used to assist in the Jail delivery, and as the vil business was suffering, he would give notice that he would sit to relieve the pressure at the ail, and that persons not in custody would not be tried. As soon asthe jail delivery 18 completed the civil cases will be called. ‘The detective cases and many others will there- fore go over to the next term of court. ete alia District Government Affairs.
