Col Rockwell, in speaking to a Star reporter about the possibility of the selection of the Botan!- cal gardens as_a site for the Congressional !brary, said, “in my official report _as to the avallabllity of any of the government reservations as a site, I stated that not one unoccupied was suitable for the purpose, and referred to the Botanical garden re- servation a3 totally untitted. ‘The bullding will never be located there, common sense Will prevent 1c.

CHATRMAN SPRINGER EXPLAINS. ‘Mr. Springer explained that his connection with the case was simply that, happening to be tn New Mexico, and Mnding a friend of his in trouble, he agreed to sign the papers, but presented no bill for fees.

Saulsbury?” asked Mr. Fyan, “There was not,” replied the witness. “Mr. Ker, Tbetieve, drew up an outline for such an indict- ment.” “Why was there no indictment?” “1 do not know.” “Was it on account of the absence of witnesses?” “No; we had, I think, all the witnesses pres- entire nese.” i. “Did you know of witness named Parish, who abseuted uimselt” did not.

Mi. BLISS ADVANCING PAY TO WITNESSES. Mr. Bilss further stated that he had often ad- vanced money for the expenses of the witnesses In the star route cases, some o: which he had lost. Then, to dfsprove the statement that he had longed the trials because he was making $100, he read letters written by him vo the Attorney General from time to time, asking to be relleved from the duties imposed upon him, ‘The withess had a letter from Brewster, dated April 29, 1883, desiring that he (Bliss) should remain | here during “all the’ arguments in the star route | Cases.

Ail that witness did in the civil suits was what he did in arranging for the arbitration hithertage plained by him. Wr, Springer.—Was mot the arbitration extra judicial?” | JVs repiled that ‘he doubted it the arbitra ton could be enforced by law, but where the gov ernment hid so much advantage he believed the ri0u Id be recovered. Nothing was done in he elvil suit matter until after the Dorsey trial “We were all,” Sud the witness, “preity well Pegged out, pliyed out, and we went away to take arest.” Witness told The Attorney General IU was clear to his mind tteat he civil suits ought not tobe brought in Washington. ‘Question —Why not” Answer.—“Because I had NO FAITH IN WASHINGTON JURIES.” Witness did not want the cases brought in Ttah, because he didn’t think the government couid get Justice there. His idea was to have the cases brought somewhere in the west, Ohio, Indiana, or Illinois, any places where jurisdiction could be ob- Lalned by personal service upon the parties. ‘That would seatter tris over the country, and witness could not possibly attend to them. In June the Attorney General requested witness to see Judge Gresham, saying the latter was very urgent to go ou with the civil suits, He read a letter froin the Attorney General sayiag Postmaster Gen- eral Gresitin Wanted to push all the stits and re. | cover all that was possible for the government, Witness went to see Gresham, and told him that very detalled statements of the cases would have to be prepared, as Various phases of the question sented themselves.
