BLISS SAW IN BOSLER'S BOOKS—#2.500 FAI TO SA. ML. GIBSON FOR TPOKMATI $5,000 TO ME. W. A. COOK'S PARTNER—MR SAMUEL J. TILDEN) THR INVESTIGATION BE- ATION. Mr. Bilss, continuing his statement before the Springer committee to-day, read several letters to the Assistant Postmaster General and Attorney General with relation to the proposed arbitration tn the Saulsbury cases. Among these was a letter from himself to the Attorney General, commending the Saulsbury arbitration, and expressing the opinion that the Saulsburyscould not be convicted. In tils letter Col, Bllss wrote that he hadn't the Ume to attend to this matter of artitration unless he charge ily. He then went answer Mr. Springer’s question as to What he (Bliss) did in the cases. He suid that after | the frst indictment against. Dorsey was fled it ap- peared that Rerdell and Sanderson had been the dicted only by initials, and the indictments were altered on that ground. ‘The indictments were not Sustained. ‘Then the question was whether 1 Would be better to procure new Indictments or hot, and finally that Was d@ctted upon, ‘The wit neskes before the grand jury had been subpoenaed for the trial, and when they came they were put before the grand jury, and a new indictment was obtained, with Sinderson’s hame omiltted. AS that ouission’had been made THE BASIS OF DIRTY INSINUATIONS, witness said die would explain it. His explanation ‘Was, in brief, that Sanderson could not be con- nected with the conspiracy, a5 he was not inter- ested In any routes with the other defendants. For {hls reason, and not with any consideration tor Sanderson, though witness was not altogether responsible for el he was willing to assume the responsibility. Ker (sitting behind Sr. Buss): “I want to say that T left Sanderson out, and Iam responsible for the omission.” Mr, Biss—SOn, all right; I thought fleft him out” Mr. Bilss said he wanted to reply once for all to “idirty insinuations” that had been made against him before the committee. He declared em aly unt in no case oF Any ps any offer of emolumentof any ki Ind to persuade bin from his duty been made. Nothing in that shape, NOT EVEN A FREE PASS, had been offered him, and he wanted to make this dental as clear, as broad, and as explicit as possi- ble, and settle the matter for all time to come. Resuming, he sald that when the Dorsey case was about ready for Indictnent he went to the Attorney General and sald he did not propose to become a criminal draughtsman. He did not feel imselt competent, and he advised the employment of some lawyer to draw the indictments. Mr. Brewster em- loved Mr. Ker,who, he sald, was an able man, who had had great experience. It turned out that Ker ‘Was all (hat Was described, as his indictment STOOD THE TEST OF ALL THR “RACKET” ralsed against 1. He had more knowledge than the gentleman (W. A. Cook) who described him as @ Supposed expert was competent to pass upon. MR. BLISS’ HEAVY LABORS. Mr. Bliss next described the daily routine of iis labors. He sald he labored hard all of every day, and usually did not get to bed before 2a. m. of rach day, as after hts dally work ti court. he exat ined, at Nils rooms, the witnesses of he next ‘The ‘heavy labor fell upon him, as he was most fatnlliar With it. If the committee thought the cases Were unduly prolonged he would suggest at Judze Wyte be called to testify on that paint. he Witness admitted that the cases were prolonged far beyond What the prosecution expected, and. be. yond the Ume they ought to have ocenpled. Jude Wyle 1 to give the defendants every opportunity, and they brought up questions one day hat had been angued the day before, and thus consumed a great deal of time. ‘The verdict tn th first case, he said, was an absurdity, a solecistn, as men found guilty could not have Been guilty unless the big ones were also. ‘Vhe first verdict Was set aside at the Instance of the gov nd a new one ordered. The labors of witness tn the second trial were much less acting. “He was able to throw much of the burden. ‘on ollier counsel. He found among th TS of ‘the cas® a memorandum golng to show that Spen- cer could testify as to THR PAYMENT OF MONKY BY DORSEY AND BRADY, and relating to Rerdell’s betrayal of Dorsey «and his reclamation by Dorsey, Witness went to Jamesand Van Wormer, and they sald Spencer had made sub- stantially the same statements to them. Van Wor- mer Was then and 1s now a personal friend of Spen- Mr. Boynton (not Gen. Boynton) also. sald Spencer had told him the same things. Witness Suspected SPENCER HAD BREN DOING SOME BLOWING, but felt it to be his duty to put him onthe stand. He took a great deal of pains to subpeena Spencer. ‘Tue latter had complained that he (BUss) had not consulted with him. Witness did not consult with him; he avolded hi. He did not want to raise any question of veracity with Spencer. Witness here ave an account of his conversation with Secretary Chandler spoken of in Spencer's testimony. He ad- mitted telling Chandler that he did not want to talk with Spencer. He told Chandler that he had determined to put Spencer on the stand anyhow, whether he denied the knowledge imputed to him or not. He sald he did not want to talk with Spen- cer because he (Bliss) would be bound to tell Spen- cer he did not belleve hit 1f he denied what was Supposed he knew, ‘Chandler said to witness that‘from what he knew of Spencer and of his devotion to friends he could, Mf put on the stand, deny what was imputed to him. Witness replied that it did not make any dif. ference, he would put him on the stand, and If he dented he would subject him to rigid eross-exam- ination. He described Spencer's being subpa-niaed in New York, and sald the only donversation he witness) had with Spencer afterwards was when Spencer complained bitterly of beluy subparnaed in New York and thus deprived of his inileaze. He sald he Was surprised to learn that Spencer had left here and gone west. _ He received a letter from Spencer, from the west, denying that he knew any- thing of any value, and that he had made the Slateinents tmputed to him.” In this etter, sald she SPENCER USED SOME PROFANITY, and said this was a very bad government, and he ‘was very sorry he had ever fought for it. Mr. Biss sald he asked for.an attachment, and notified Chandler that tt would not be served if Spencer would agree to appear. He described the efforts of the prosecution to get Spencer, and. sald the defense closed thelr case very suddenly, much to the surprise of the prosecution, and witness sub- sequently ascertained that the defense had learned thas the government knew where Spencer was, and Unat Induced the former to suddenly close their case, as they did not want Spencer to testity. THE WILD BUNT FOR SPENCER. Inthe second case, Bliss sald the government madeevery effort to get Spencer. He described the varlous traces of him and told how many officers were sent after him. Spencer had sald he attended eh consecration In New York and Bllss was there, This the witness admitted, but Spencer kept concealed and had his letters Sent under the assumed name ofa clergyman. He mentioned the different places to which Spencer went and de- talled the efforts to get him. He said that while Spencer was at Watertown It was ascertained that the “immaculate late counsel of the government, A. M. Gibson, Was there and in consultation with the absconding witness” He then referred to Spencer's trip to Europe and sald he remained there until the case was about closed. Br. Biss said he applied for a subpdena for Spen- cer, and he exp! the opinion that the subpaena Served was in the precise form of all the others used in the case. While he did not want to criti- else Judge Wylle’s decision in the attachment case, he could not understand it exactly. Witness said ‘Mr. Spencer had DENIED SAYING HB SAW DORSEY PAY BRADY MOXEY, but if the committee wanted witnesses on that point, as Mr. James had testified to the fact, they could summon Van Wormer and Boynton, both of whom are in New York. Witness sald that when he talked with Van Wormer it was evident that the latter hesitated to betray Spencer because of the Personal friendship between them; but Van Wor. ter told him that Spencer had sald to him (Van Wormer) that he (Spencer) saw Dorsey pay Brady money in a package, ec, Witness was satistied ‘Judge Wiley had expressed the opinion that Spencer was deliberately evading ‘Ure service of the court. In justification of the course he pursued witness was satisfied that, how- ever earnest Spencer might haye been for the government at that later and from about De- cember, 1881, his (Spencer's) whole interest and in- uence were transferred to the defense. Witness further sald that after he came to Ws Gibson did_no_ work for the government except to write his: wrt eulogizing his (Gibson's) own work and giving himself credit for work he had never done. Woodward objected to Gibson's himself as an employe of the government, and the Department of Justice also ‘objectio! ms. Wit- ness went over the report with Gibson, and at his (Biss) mn Gibson struck out various things in tt. ‘Then Gibson professed great gratitude to him (Bliss) for what he had done for him and his course towards him, ‘At this juncture Mr. Woodward, who was sitting behind Mr. Biss, whispered to the latter, and Mr. Bilss nodding nis head, sald, approvingiy, “on, yes, YS" PRICE A VALUABLE MAN TO CATCH.
