and offered to give bail in his own reeog-
nizanee to the an cunt Of $40, 600. On being
/ questioned by the District Attorne7 he re-
fused, however, to desist from any further
attempt to attain the object he has en-
deaYored to accomplish. The District At
torney informed him that he would not OBJ
lect to his release on his own reeognizance
If he would give his parole not TO attempt
any further violation Of the neutrality aet.
Mr.. Roberts replied that he would NOT
promise anything of the kind, but on the
other hand he would continue to do all in
his power to eOnsummste his object a. soon
as the opportunity offered. Shortly after the
conversation Ex-Recorder Smith. on the
part of President Roberts, asked that hs be
admitted to bail in his own rscoeuizsnce
for S2e,0e0, at tbs same tina presenting the
bond duly signed, when the following con-
versatiOn ensCed: u
District Attorney-I object t. the bond or
any bail, for if released be will repeat the
violation Of the law.
CommissionerlThat assertion will not
prevent his admission to bail.
District Attorney-I think it ought to
prevent his being admitted to bail
Ex-Reeorder Smith, suppose you do
not object to the suffeiency Of the surety.
District AttOrney-No, not to its sufH-
cheney, but cannot consent to any bond
when he has threatened to reitsrate the acts
with which he is charged.
District Attorney-I must still resist the
application. hsYe telegraphed TO Wash
ington, and unless ordered to the contrary I
shall maintain my position
The Commissioner decided not to take his
personal bond, after the consultation. Mr..
Roberts still persisted in refusing TO allow
any one to become his security, and il is
more than probable he viii lodge in Ell
bridge street jail tonight
