CINCINNATI, January 2l.-Mr. Peter

properly influence o Government wit.
ness. He was brought before United

in $500 bail to appear for preliminary
examination next Saturday.
Thirty.five applications for space at

The Register of Bankruptcy today
took the evidence OF 7. P. Saunders, one
or the three witnesses.
Joseph Williams testified last Saturday
in the Schwab casc:-Was to share six
thousand dollars in case the Government
should lose in the suit tried last June
against the Plank Road Distillery.
T. P. Saunders testilles that in response
to an invitation from Joseph Williams he
went to St. Nicholas early in May, after
tho Cincinnati Convention, where in
private room he found Peter
Schwab and W. r. Pate sitting by
table, on which were lying greenbaCks
Schwab said to witness, "yOu are Just the
man want to see. l want you to count
that money" Witness counted it, and
found it was six thousand dollars. Wit.
ness says then Williams took Schwab out
OF the room few minutes, then both re-
turned, when witness went out with VIII.
lIams and asked him what this oil meant,
receiving the answer you will find out
some day. Witness then made inquiry
as to what had been done with the
money, and learned that Schwa6 had dc.
posted it in the safe, whereupon he pre-.
Gcted to Williams that when the envel.
ope was opened, it would contain
no money, adding that he had heard OF
stuffed packages; thereupon Williams
grew angry and went away; witness said
he did not SEQ tho disposition Of the
money, but had conversed q few times
casually with schwab about it, and once
told him he thought there was no money
in it; witness did not until about week
before the trial understand what disposi.
ton was to bo made of that money,
at which time Williams told him
$4,000 Of it was for him if he wished 1t;
had a conversation afterwards with
Schwab & Pate about the disposition ot
the money. It was tacitly understood,
though not distinctly stated, that he
should receive $4,000 Of 1t. Witness
said he would not receive 1t as a gift, but
would like to have about $4,000 as a
loan; received OF Schwab thirty dollars
in payment Of q loan, but no other money
Of any one ol the parties.

THE TRIAL OF TWEED.


In the Tweed case, Garvey's cross
examination occupied tho whole day
Witness testified that he was not so pool
as to be required to work for the county
If he knew that he would have to &C
through course of crime to get his
money. He told Mayor Hall that his
(witness's) bills were just TO create effect
Witness explained the manner IN which
he and Iugersoll made up their bills,
These bills were partially just. There
was not 35 per cent OF any bill due from
the county. Each bill was presumed to
bear the same proportion ot my claims
OF these claims only $241 900 was due
from the county. No part Of any bill
was entirely true. Witness didn't deni'
nitely know how much was true. No
body saw the bills until witness rendered
them. He kept them entirely to himself
The vouchers accompanied the warrants
for these bills. got directions from
Watson how to make out the bills,
TWeed's name was on some OF his bills
The prices charged for work were regular
but the amounts were increased. BE put
in 81, 900 in one bill, on his own book, to
pay election expenses. Witness had no
idea of Concealment in making up his bill,
He did not know how many bills
were not sworn to; remember swearing TO
one which was an honest bill; Woodward
directed him to make deposits OF the
payments Of some Of his bills TO his own
order. r.1#.
The defence wanted to show that some
OF the bills alleged TO be sworn to by
Garvey were not verified, but the court
would not allow 1t. Tho defence also
wanted to show additional perjury in the
witness in swearing that Tweed enlarged
the bills fifteen per cent, but the court
thought it irrelevant
On further examination the witness
said he only swore to ono affidavit, which
was on his first bill. Witness recognized
a number Of warrants on which other
names were inserted. As Hay aud
some of these names were incorrect, the
defence wanted to show that Garvey
virtually forged some Of these names for
the purpose Of defrauding, and altered
names slightly to protect himself; also, that
the witness was engaged IN an independ.
cnt speculation, and didn't divide the
monies as stated. After argument the
court decided to exclude the testimony.
Cross. examination Continued-Garvey
said he never returned to the company q
cent of the $4,000 he got from Wood
ward for work done for him.

evening, a play entitled, the Jesuits ID
