WHISKY RING.
The Trial OF Avery Progressing.

81. Louis, November ga. G. Rodgers,
once deputy commissioner of internal rev.
enue, testified he once arranged a raid with
out Avery's knowledge; Avery complained;
said it wes an imputa;ion against him; that
was the New Orleans raid; it was successful
JOhn 5. Douglass tes'itied-He was Com
missioner Of Internal Revenue from 1871 to
May last, subsequent to the New Orleans
raid ! wanted to try this district; the news
got ont in some way; ! became convinced
it would be necessary to get rid of soma of the
officers; eent Joyce to California so could
have the books in this district examined;
suspected Mcdonald, and Joyce was disap-
pointed in the first raid on New Orleans;
Avery knew nothing. OF the successful raid

/ concluded to change supervisors; talked
with the President and Bristow about it as
soon as the elections were over and out of
the way; / recommended the changes;
sent Mcdonald and Joyce to Philadelphia
there was great pressure brought to bear
on the President, and Mcdonald and Joyce
were not transferred as had recommended.
In reference to the question whether Bah
cock came to see witness about retaining
Mcdonald and Joyce in their districts,
counsel for Avery objected.
General Henderson stated he intended to
prove that General Babcock was in this
ring, and with this view W. D. w. Barnar
was called and asked to compare a telegram
handed him with letter from Babcoek,
written to Barnar. Barnar thought the tele-
gram was not written by Bsbcock.
Douglass was recalled, but could not
recognize the telegram as having been
written Dy Babcock.
E. r, Chapman was then called. He said
he was a judge of handwriting, and had no
hesitation in saying the telegram and letter
were written by the same person.
Mr.. Gil6llan, cashier of the United States
treasury, Washington, was called. who said
he was an expert IN handwriting, and testi-
fed that the letter and telegram were writ
ten by the same hand.
John X. Donohoe, clerk of the Western
Union Telegraph office, identified several
telegrams as having been received and sent
from here from 1873 to 1875
General Henderson wished to read the
kilograms.
Judge Krum objected. He stigmatized
the proceeding as one simply to bolster up
this case and involve the jury in muddle
as to who was being tried. The kilograms
were Bsbcock's, and not Avery's. He said
they were also introduced to make drive
at the White House.
