THE DEMPSEY TRIAL. ‘Testimdny in the Case All I This morning the Dempsey-Kirkwood trial Was resumed in the Criminal Court, Judge Wyle, Mr. John Cook, of the fourth auditor's office, was recalled, and the government offered to show by papers that the stationery which Mr. Dempsey claims to have farnished could have been paid from the same appropriation the vouchers In question were drawn on, and to show that after furnishing, as alleged, station- ery sufficient for the use of the bureau and all the hospitals for two years,he within two months afterwards presented vouchers for sta- tonery. This evidenee, Mr. Worthington sai Went 10 the very. botiom of the defense, and Mr Wikon hie ete, claiming thatit part ‘ no} 5 was of the evidenee in chiet The court decided the evidence admissible. The district attorney read from the compila- tion of the laws the appropriation for support of medical department $40,000, naval hospital ooo repairs $15,000, and contingent 25,000, and also the Jaw as to withholding 20 cents per month for settlers, &c., for the navy hospital fund, and he read’ the vouchers of pitt: 1883, for $1,467.80; June 80th, 2d EDITION.

Special Dispatch to Tae EveNINaSram, Aunany, N, Y., February 16.—There is the best authority for the statement that President- elect Cleveland has virtually decided upon all but two or three miembers of his cabinet, and that those whom he designs for these positions ‘Will be consulted this week, so that if possible the entire cabinet will be anpounced by Mr. Cleveland before the end of this week or early next week. It fs asserted on as good authority asanything short of a distinct declaration from Mr. Cleve- land could be, that Senator Bayard will be Sec- retary of State; Mr. Daniel Manuing, Secretary of the Treasury, and Senator Garland, Attorney General, with the likelihood that Mr. Vilas will receive the War department and Senator La- mer the Post Office. Whether or not Mr. Mc- Donald shall be Secretary of the Interior is un- certain, but the presymption seems against his entrance into the cabinet. RECOGNITION FOR THE MUGWUMPS.

Mr. Cook testified that the signatures of Dr, Wales to orders for goods were, in his opinion, forgeries. Witness, on cross-examination, sald he had never seen Dr. Wales write; was acquainted with his signature, In his division an examina- tlon had been made, and the signature on a large bumber of vouchers was taken as the standard. ized certain of the signatures as genuine; that on Mrs, Barnes’ postage stamp voucher included. Chief Clerk Walker, of the, navy pay office, was examined as to the signatures on certain Vouchers. Mr. Worthington desired to question him again aa to what occurred when Carrigan, Dempsey and the man represented to be J. R. fener. eipeneen, at his office, but the court ruled out the testimony. Benjamin White, of the and surgery, was examined as to oeatiyane kind of stationery used at the bureau, the books and Journals used, the kind of ink, &¢.

Dr. Van Reypen, of the bureau of medicine and surgery, was ¢xamined as to the funds out of which various Items would be paidy and the district attorney then, at 2:25 p.m., announced the rebutting testimdny for the government closed, bureau of medicing —_+—_ The Light-weight Champtonship, Toronto, ONT., February 16.—George Full- {ames the light-relght champion “of Canada, as issued a card onion to fight Biny Haw-, kins, of Winnipeg, for $500 a side and the light-weight champlonshfp. ff Hawkins docs not accept the challenge 1s open to any man in Canada.
