INSIDE STAR ROUTE HISTORY. ‘The Offers Made to Walsh by Kellogz, Dorsey and Others to Set bis (Waleh’s) Claim Against Bradt a Certain Conditions—Other Develop- ments, Mr. Walsh was again before the Springer com- mittee this morning, and continued his testimony. He read from the records Mr. Bliss’ statement: “With Mr. Walsh I had comparatively little to do. ‘He conceived a hostility towards me.” Witness Said this was not true. There seemed, he said, to bea disposition on tne partof Mr. Biissthrough- out his testimony to convey the inpression that he (Walsh) was not looked upon as a reliable witness here was a disposition to imply that a settlement ofthe civil case against Brady might effect nis (Walsh’s) f ME. W. A. COOK'S MYSTRRIOUS INTIMATION. ‘Witness said in relation to this that he had em- Ployed LG. Hine, and, later, Col. Cook, as his counsel in the case. When he (witness) was in Washington to go before the Hutchinson grand Jury, Cook bad come into his office and intimated, in a mysterious manner, tbat he could secure Mement of his case Brady through Mr. Kel- log. Witness said he asked what he meant, and he answered again mysteriously that he (Walsh) Ought to know. Witness replied that he did not DOW. ‘ MR. A. M. GIBSON EXPLAINS THAT IT MEANT THAT KEL~ 1060 SHOULD PAY WALSH'S CLAIM AGAINST BRADY. After that Mr. A. M. Gibson came to him with an offer of a settlement to be effected by ex-Senator Kel- logg, who would pay witness a certain portion of his claim against Brady. Witness asked Gibson who he came trom, and he answered from his friend Cook. Witness said he then told him that Kellogg owed him no money, and he wanted to have nothing to do with the matter, MORE PRESSURE ON WALSH IN BEHALF OF ERLLOGS. After that Mr. Wills, a personal friend of air Walsh, was telegraped for and came to Washington Yoexert his influence upon witness in behalf of Kellogg. He told Walsh that he ought to know ‘that he could not do anything in @ ight of this kind; that Kellogg would be able to crush him, an advised him to desist. He was too strong for him to hope to stand up against. Witness said he Temained firm, and Wills became greatly worked up, and said he was afraid Walsh was actuated by muilice; was seeking revenge. Wil.s said the admin- istration would stand by Kellogg. to, the extreme end, and if Walsh undertook to indict Kellogg THE ADMININISTRATION AND ITS FORCES Would crush Walsh tothe very earth. Wills sald George Bliss would do all he could to protect Kel- logg and, if Walsh wanted to save Kellogg, Bliss understood everything and would co-operate with him, Wills sald they cared nothing for Brady and would give Walsh Brady’sScaip if that would pro- pluate him. Witness went before the grand Jury and he discovered that Bilss was expecting him to omit Kellogg's name. Bliss asked his questions at first in a very delicate and careful sort of way, ut When he saw that witness would not spare ‘Kel- logg he began to question more fully, and subse quently Biss hedged by saying he would, as a Juryman, have voted to indict Kellogg. 4 PROPOSITION FROM EX-SENATOR DORSEY. ‘The second time witness was offered his money ‘Was by ex-Senator Dorsey. Witness was attempt- ing in New York to attach property of Brady’s to satisfy witness’ claim against Brady. Witness re- ceived word that a deputy sheriff named shelley ‘Wanted to see him. Witness called on Shelley,who sald Dorsey wanted to see him. Witness called on Dorsey, Who sald witness could get $28,000 if h: Would ‘settle with Brady; that he (Dorey) was moved to make the offer because of ‘THE DISTRESS BRADY WAS IX. ‘While he was not expressly ‘told so, witness under- ‘st00d this to mean that he could get that money if he would go away and not testify. ‘The next offer witness had followed a telegram he recelved in New York trom L. G. Hine calling him here. Hine sent him to Jere Wilson, who thought he had better settle with Brady. Wilson said Brady claimed he Guin tome Walsh a8 much as the latter claimed. ftnegs said that if Brady was not abie to pay of the debt he (witness) could take that Into consid- eration. Wilson said he couldn't put {ton that ground; that. Brady was Nnancially able to pay all the claim, Walsh declared that Brady should pay ‘all—$34,000—or none. Wilson sald he would see ‘Witness again at the Riggs that night, but hedida t appear, and witness returned to New ‘York. THE NEXT OFFER TO WITNESS OF COMPROMISE was prior to the second trial of Brady, Dorsey & Co. On that occasion a gentleman approached witness, and said he wanted to talk about the Brady claim. ‘The committee insisted upon having the name of that gentleman. Witness answered that it was Mr. W. P. Rice, formerly the secretary of Senator Conover. Rice called on witness at his room and sald the time had arrived when Walsh could get his money. Witness ‘Was glad the time hadcome. Rice asked how much the cialm was. Witness told him, and Rice sald “You can get your money.” Rice Said the defen- dants realized that Walsii ‘was the chief witness inst them; that Walsh had caused them most of their trouble; that the defendants realized that Brady was a hog and wouldn't pay his debts, and they (the defendants) had DECIDED TO CHIP IN AND PAY THE CLAIM. Witnes; expressed surprise, and said the defend- ants didn’t owe him anything; that they had de- nounced him (Walsh) as a blackmaller; that Kel- logg had publicly declared there was no evidence Put before the grand Jury against him, and that ‘the day of retribution for blackmallers was . Witness told Klee tat if he accepted the p \tion, took the money and abandoned the Meld he would tuus give color to the charge that he had attempted blackinail, Witness sald he might. be wrong, but he couldn’t, in Justice to himself, com- promise his claim by taking the money of the de- fendants. Rice wanted Walsh to go and see Dor- Sey, DUL Witness declined to do that, saying he DIDN'T WANT TO SEE DORSEY. Rice was sorry, as he belleved Dorsey could makett clear to Walsh that he ought to accept the propost- ton he (Rice) had made next day. Rice met Walsh on the street, and again told him that he ought to see Dorsey. Rice sald Dorsey wasvery much hurt at Walsh refusing to see him; that Dorsey sald, “Great God! What have I done that Walsh should refuse to see me?” Witness ed that it was no per- sonal objection to Dorsey. Rice didn’t say the de- sire was that Walsh should absent himself and Tefuse to go on the stand, but witness regarded that ag the object sought. Witness had no vroot that Rice represented Brady or Dorsey, but prior to that visit witness went to New York on the same train with Kellogg. KELLOGG SAID: “Walsh, Why don’t you settle this matter with Brady?” Witness answered that he was anxious to settle, but Brady was the obdurate party. Kel- log sald there could be no dificulty in settling the matter. ‘The next time witness came to W: - ton was the occasion of Rice’s visit. ANOTHER CALL FROM GIBSON. Merrick wrote witness that he was wanted before the grand jury, but he refused to go before a jury with Blisa. However, he was served, and came over to Washington. Next day A. M. Gibson called on witness and told him he could get his money ‘With consequential damages; that in addition to his 1L would De id him. Witness asked ie knew that (Walsh) was under subpena. Gibson said no. “That: that,” said witness. THE NEXT OFFER OF COMPROMISE came from Charles H. Reed, the prosecutor of Guiteau, as representative for Brady. He ap- proached Mr. Grandin, witness’ attorney in New York. Reed offered to pay $10,000 to com the matter. Reed was counsel for Brady and Kel- loge. Witness had t brad asa et in New York against Kel as their atcorney It wan tn Yast January oat Bed made his offer.
