WASHINGTON, June 10.--An the paragraphs afoat
about an application being made and now pending
before the President for the bail and parole of jeff
Davis without the slightest foundation in truth
The President would have nothing to do in the dis
position Of the matter of bail under the Indictment
But the counsel of DAVIS have applied TO Chief
Justice Chase for writ of hdbedS corpus to bring
the pr before the Court under the indictment
found at orlok and urge that bail be accepted and
their client released from imprisonment until his
case shall be called for trial in October. Judge
Chase yesterday declined to issue the writ, and init
mated that the off nse charged in the indictment is
not bailabe. AttorneyG GeneTal speed is Of opinion
that it is baiab!e ofense The counsel then sought
Judge Underwood for the purpose of obtaining the
writ but up to this time the decision OF the Judge
has not been made known, and it is not expected
that he will issue the writ
Messrs Greeley, Clark, Schell and Vanderbilt are
offered as surety DAVIS bail bond. Some of these
sureties here Mr.. Greeley left Tor NeT Y ork to-
night
The President has been consulted, only TO know
whether Mr.. DAVIS will be placed IN the custody OF
the civil authorities at once, should either of the
Judges be willing to issue the habeas corpus The
President is ready to hand Davis over at any mo-
ment the Judges will signify their willingness to
take charge OF the prisoner. MIR. johnson will not
permit any conflict as to the custody of Davis, but
until the court is ready to take jurisdiction of the
case under the Indictment, Davis will be held a; a
prisoner Of wary y, Times.

THE RELEASE OF JEFF. DAVIS ON BAIL.

1t was rumored last night that Jefferson Davis had
been, was to be bailed, but the report could not
then be traced to responsible source. To-day,
however, il is repeated, and the names of several
gentlen are mentioned as to 90 on the bond. One
OF them has been in search of Judge Underwood,
who arrived mere several days ago. but it has not
become publicly known whether the effort to find
hm has been successful. Judge Unperwood IS q
District Judge OF the Circuit presided over by Chief
Justice Chase, and hence it is SAID an appeal will be
made TO botn to act concurrentiY in the matter Of
bail, and that five gentlemen ready to bind them
selves in the of $4,000 each for his appearance
at the next term of the Court In richmond
Jefferson Davis is held as a prisoner OF war and
nota prisoner of state, as many have supposed.
A writ OF habeas corpus, if granted woIld bring
him under the conf oil of the Court; in other words
release him altogether from present military GUS
todJ In this the Government would not interfere,
as It would hen be merely judicial mater leaving
the Court TO determine whether or not 1t would re-
lease the prisoner bail without any nterpostion
by or consultation with the President.
II is understood the President is desirous that it
should be accepted, but that Judge Underwood does
not any legal authority for releasing the pri.
soner, who is really held by the war, and not the
civil power OF the Government Davis will be re-
leased, if at all, on his parOle.-N. y. Tribune.

startle all who are familiar with the testimony II
seems that many OF the witnesses testified under
assumed names, and that no such persons as the
ostenslble and recorded witnesses exist,
In addition to this, he states that when Mr.. Con.

the ease, was asked to proceed to New York and
procure some co rohor..,.,,g evidence CT his own
