In the star route trials Bliss an~ nounced they were through with the exception testimony of Ex-Senator Spencer, who had left town, and asked. postponement till he could testify. The court dented the motion. The evidence closed on both sides and the: court took a recess. In his afll lavit asking a postpone- ment, Bliss says that when he was in: )1rq(-y s room tho latter gave Bradg an envelope containing £6,000 in bills. The following is the substance of & counter aflidavit offsred by Ingersoll, which he will file when the court moets to-morrow: “It is not true that he (Dorsoy) had any conversa= tion with said Goorge E Spencer, as is sot forth in said affidavit. Affiant turther says that it is not true said Spencor oh one occasion was prosomt; in the room of this affisnt when this afliant took from bis pocket and placed. in onvelopes six bills of $1,000 each, laid the envelope with the bills m it on the table, tolling him (sid Spen~ cor) that he (the afliant) expected Thomas J. Brady to como n a short time and ho (tho afliant) wished tae ahow raid Spencer what sort of man Brady was, and how ho (this affiant did bustness; and 1t is ot troe sid Brady called and after & fow moments' casusl conversatom that this afliant told said Brady some one had left an onvelope with him for Brady., Neither is it true, as attiant believes, that said Spencer ever told anybody ho would 8o tostify. Affiant states thore was not one word of truth in the statoment that he ever put six bills of the denomination of $1,000 for said Brady, or any number of bills of any denomination, or any bill of any denomination, for said Brady that the whole story is without the slightest foundation in fact. Affiant further says it is not true that thik afliant, subscquent to the conver- sation tostitied in this case as having oceurred between Rerdell and James, and Rerdell and MacVeagh, that this affiant went tor the room of said Spencer in the Kvers ott house, New York, in great trouble: and despondency, and stated to said Spencer that his clerk had gone back on him and given away the whole story, and had destroyed the whola businees, with inore to that effect. Affiaut is further informed and be- lieves said Spencer was here mattend- ance upon this ceurt for a long time, and ho is mformed that ho (Speucery frequently asked to be put upon the stand in this very case, frequently stating that ho knew untllinu againat this afliant, and could testily to noth- ing that would in tho slightest degrea implicato this afliant or show that e had ever conspired as sct forth in the indictment, or had done anything illegally in connectiopn with star routes. Affiant further sayn he is informod and belioves, in fact, knows, that said Spencer was her in attendance upon this court for a long time, and frequently asked to be put upon the stand, stating that his private business was suflering and that it was of great importance to him: that he be examined at once and dis~ charged. It is expected that other affi lavits of a simlar character will be filed by the defense. When the court renssembled Judge: Wylie said he believed it best to ad~ journ uantil to-morrow, counsel mean- while to arrange among themselves, ift possible, the order of argument.
