Argument for Government in the Star
Route Case Estimates for the Pen
sion Bureau The National Thanks'
giving Day Redemption of Govern
ment Bonds Resignation of the min
ister to Russia, &c, &c.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
Washington, November. 4. Argument
on the motion to set aside the criminal in
formation in the Star Route cases was re
newed this morning. George Bliss, special
counsel, addressed the Court on behalf of
the Government. He gave as the reason
why the information was filed, that the
grand jury had been adjourned until Octo
ber 3d, and what were regarded as some of
the most important and effective acts had
taken place on the 1st of October, and it
was likely, therefore, that unless proceed
ings were begun in some form, the plea of
statute of limitations would have been set
up by the defendants. Mr. Bliss argued at
length against the motion to quash the in
dictment. Mr. BJiss, in opening, admitted that the
action of the government in placing infor
mation before the court was unusual, but
not without precedent, and said that it was
the only direct-way by which the govern
ment could place the facts properly before
the jury. He sustained his argument by
reading a number of authorities which he
subsequently filed in the shape of a brief.
The main point made under these authori
ties was that any person or persons guilty
of any crime arising under the revenue
laws of the United States, or incurring any
fine or forfeiture by breaches of said laws,
may be prosecuted, tried and punished,
provided the indictment or information be
found at any time within five years after
committing, the offense, any law or provi
sion to the contrary notwithstanding.
Some further authorities were cited by Mr.
Bliss, with reference to the question of
conspiracy; he maintaining that in this
case conspiracy could be proven and
quite properly sustained. Referring, to
the position taken by the defence yesterday
that Brady could not as an executive officer
be proceeded against by indictment, much
less by information, Mr. Bliss said it seemed
extraordinary to him that these gentlemen
should say we are not liable to a grand jury
inquest ; we are liable only to impeachment,
and being out of office now, impeachment
amounts to nothing. Any officer of the
government could, then, after the most cor
rupt practices, only resign. He referred to
the Belknap case, as to the impracticability
of the impeachment plan. Referring to the
Tweed case, he said it was not alleged in
the indictment against him that any of the
money ever went into his pocket. Still,
counsel came here and laughed because
they-44d not allege in information that any
of the money went into Gen. Brady's pocket.
He then made a severe arraignment of Gen.
Bradv. who. he said, being entrusted with
discretion by the government, did not exer
cise tjiat discretion for the good of the peo
ple of the government, but was using it for
the good of the few by squeezing this man
out and putting that man in, and squeezing
this contractororthattopay a contribution.
Perhaps, he urged, before the defence finish
this case, they will seek to avail themselves
of the principle which they laid down yes
terday, that members of Congress, too, are
exempt from such prosecution or exemptions-Mr.
Bliss was followed by Robert G. In
gersoll, of counsel for the defendants, who
first called attention to the question of
probable cause. Affidavits and information,
he said, were all the evidence all the prob
able cause in the case. He desired to show
how much it amounted to as evidence. This
information, he said, appears to have been
presented in this Court not by the Attorney
General (and he would say here that the
Attorney General had no standing in this
Court). " The Government was represented
here by the District Attorney. This inf orma-fi-in
tttt fiT 1 by the District Attorney in
partnership with certain other gentlemen,
and he doubted whether the District Attor
ney had any right to divide his responsi
bilities. He read from the J first count
of the information, 'alleging that Brady,
Turner, French, IfcDonough, Brown
and others corruptly conspired to de
fraud the government by procuring un
necessary compensation, and to be paid for
carrying mails on certain routes, etc. The
first objection he made was to the word
unnecessary. It was for the Postoffice De
partment to say what was unnecessary. It
was not for the District Attorney to decide
that question. The pleader must set forth
accurately the facts, and not only charge
that it was unlawful and extravagant, but
must also show why it was unlawful and
extravagant.
Washington, November 4. Col. Dud
ley, Commissioner of Pensions, has sub
mitted to the Secretary of the Interior a re
commendation that Congress be asked to
appropriate $100,000,000 for disbursement
by his office during the next fiscal year, end
ing January 30, 1883, in payment of annual
and accrued pensions, and also that an im
mediate deficiency appropriation of $20,
000,000 be requested for the purpose of pay
ing all arrears of pensions to claimants
whose cases have been or may be favorably
adjudicated during the current fiscal year.
The Cominissioner estimates that 40,000
pension claims will be allowed this year,
and that with a further increase in the cleri
cal force of the Bureau, as many as 60,000
may be disposed of next year.
President Arthur has decided to desig
nate Thursday, November 24th, as a day
of national thanksgiving and prayer. The
proclamation is now being prepared at the
State Department, and will be sent to New
York to-morrow for the President's signa
ture. Assistant Secretary French issued a cir
cular to-day that on Wednesday next, and
on each Wednesday thereafter, through the
present month and until otherwise ordered,
the Treasury Department will redeem with
par and accrued interest any uncalled for
U.S. bonds continued . to bear interest at
the rate of 2 per cent, to an amount not
exceeding two million dollars on each day
mentioned.
The resignation of Hon. Jno. W. Foster,
Minister to Russia, was to-day accepted by
Secretary Blaine, in the name of the Presi
dent. . The President has not yet decided upon
Mr. Foster's successor. The legation will
remain in charge of Secretary Hoffman.
The nomination of Geo. M. Duskin, to be
District Attorney of the United States for
the Southern District of Alabama, was not
acted on by the Senate during its' last ses
sion, and it is row claimed by manv law
yers that the office must remain in abeyance
until the next session of the Senate. It is
generally admitted that the President, by
virtwe of the tenure of office act, has not the
power to make an appointment, and it is
still an open question whether the Associate
Justice assigned to this Circuit has power to
do so. Senator Edmunds, it is said, is of
the opinion that he has not, though Attor
ney General Devens had rendered an official
opinion in a similar case that ho had. The
office, liowever, will only be in abeyance
until the meeting of Congress in December
when Duskin's name will again be sent to
the Senate.

London, November 4. The Dublin cor
respondent of the Daily News at Amagh,
discussing the subject of the fears enter
tained in some quarters in regard to a block
in the workings of the Land act, says it is
obviously absurd to suppose that because
so many thousands of notices have been re
ceived they will, or even a decent propor
tion of them, ever come to trial. As soon 1
as a few decisions have been given, and as
soon as the tendency of the decisions be
gins to "be grasped by landlord and tenant,
an amicable arrangement will take place in
an overwhelming proportion of the cases.
Maidstone, November 4. The trial of
Arthur Lefroy for the murder of F. J.
Gold, on the Brighton railway express
train, has commenced. The prisoner ap
pears calm and collected. The Attorney
General has opened the case on behalf of
the crown. The prisoner pleaded not
guilty. The court room is densely
crowded.
London, November 4. The sub-committee
of the Land Court, sitting at Belfast
to-day, made four decisions, reducing rent
in each case about 28 per cent. The day
being market day there was a large attend
ance of farmers, who received the an
nouncement of 'the decisions with great de
light. Lord Waterford's tenants having
paid full rent and promised net to prevent
hunting, that sport was recommenced to
day and there was a large muster.

The Manchester Guardian, in its com
mercial article this morning, says tlfat the

sellers are slightly easier to deal with con
siderable sales are occasionally effected,
especially of some descriptions ef export

A dispatch from Rome says that the Go

The police of Blackburn threatened the
lessee of the hall with a loss of his license
if he permitted a Land League meeting at
which Miss Emma Parncll was announced
to speak.
London, November 4. The Paris cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph says that
France has asked an explanation of the ar
rest in Russia of three Frenchmen, upon
whom compromising documents are said to
have tjeen found.
Archbishop Croke.replying to an address
of a branch of the .Land League, advised
tenants to tender a fair rent, and if refused
the fault would not be theirs. It would
show that the Irish can for their country's
sake endure insults and injuries. He de
clared that the government had established
a reign of terror.
Tunis, November 4. General Etienne
has been appointed provincial governor of
Suza and Kairowan. Large bodies of in

of the latter place.
Berlin, November 4. The National Zei
tnng states that Prince Bismarck recently
entertained a prominent Jewish manufac
turer at Varsin, at which the Prince :e
clared he would never entertain a proposal
to curtail the constitutional rights of the
Jews. He was, he said, naturally inclined
to the criticism of the opposition, but he
made no distinction between his Christian
and Jewish opponents.
Belfast, November 4. A sub-committee
of the Land Court has given judgment
in the cases of fifteen tenants, on the estate
of Archdeacon Crawford, in all except one
case reducidg rents; thus a rent of 122 was
reduced to 89, another of 71 to 48, and
another of 69 to 52.

Galveston, Nov. 4. A dispatch to the
Netes, from Henrietta, says the body of an
unknown man was found in a gulch with
three bullet holes in him, and his pockets
turned inside out.
A dispatch from Fort Davis says before
proceeding to arraign Lieut. Flipper, on
the original charges, yesterdaj', the Judge
Advocate stated it would not be proper to
present the additional charges which have
been preferred against the accused, since
the original sets were formulated, unless
the prisoner agreed voluntarily that the two
sets might be combined and tried at the
same time by the original court as now
constituted. Capt. Barber, counsel for the
defendant, asked if the Judge Advocate
would agree that the court, as now consti
tuted, should try both charges in case the
defendant preferred to be tried on the
charges separately; to which he replied he
was not authorized to make any such agree
ment, but that if a second trial were held at
this time those detailed for the first would
be called upon to act so far as he was con
cerned. The court then adjourned until
to-day to enable the accused to decide upon
the course he would pursue.
A dispatch from Paris, Texas, reports a
heavy frost Thursday night, which killed
the top crop of cotton.
A special to the News, from Texarkana,
says Geo. Ford, who was sentenced to be
hanged on November 11, was released on
the 2d inst. by the Judge on a writ of
coram nobis, and will be tried at the next
term by a special venire as to his insanity at
the time of the murder.
