WASHINGTON.
TIE CORRUPTION UNDER DISTRICT
ATTORNEY FISHER.

DISCOVERIES THAT SHOW THE JUSTICE OF HIS RE-
MOvAL-A LOSS OF OVER 1000 TO THE Dis
TRICT BY DARK PROCEEDINGs-THEFr OF M
PoRrANT PAPERs-sHARING WITH BURGLARS.
fBY TELEGRAPH THE TRIBUsR.l
WASHINGTON Sept 19.-The resignation OF Dis
trict-Attomey Fisher Of Washington took effect
about two weeks ago only, and yet enough has al
ready been discovered to show that his Office was
rotten with corruption to the core. few days ago
the discovery was made that all the DIS
trict appcal cases from the Police Court, embracing
warrants, informations, and appeal bonds had
been distracted from the clerks Office in the City
Hail. and thus far nothing has been found OF them.
These cases are ascerained to be Al in number and
are mostly prosecutions for selling liquor without
license carving concealed weapons, and fast drly-
ing. the fines amounting to some $1,000 TO 1000.
This ia a loss to the District Of that amount, as
neither principal nor bOndsmen can be held without
the missing papers. In addition to this number OF
indictments for criminal ofienses have been stolen
from the clerks Office.
OF course il would be unfair to accuse any one who
has lately held position in the DistrictAttorneys
@ ice of being responsible for these thefs but in
view Of other recent discoveries it would not be sur
prisng if they should be traced to that source.
In an investigation, which was in progress before
the Police Board last week, testimony was gwen
which leads TO the suspicion tnat one OF the idte
Assistant District Attorneys has shared with bur-
glars the goods that have been stolen
from stores in this city, and one of them actually
gave to friend an order of the baiitts of the
court for piece of silk. He now says it was only
Joke, but has not explained his object in doing IT,
Another Assistant Disrict-Attomey has been ac-
cused of approprating to his own use part of the
fees due TO poor negro boy who was detained in
iail three months as q Witness and although his ac-
cusers assert that they have positive proof OF his
guilt he denies it, but he has resigned his position.
The dishonesty which characterized the King rule
from 1871 to 1874 seems TO have reached to almost
every department of the local Government here in
the city and the next Congress can do no better work
than TO overhaul il at once
United States Dstrct-Attorney Wells has already
made numerous reforms in the administration OF
that Office and expresses his intention to so conduct
its affairs, with proper assistants as to avoid fur
Their public complaint. He is now closely engaged
in endeavorng to discover the parties guilty OF ADJ
sractng records of cases sent by the Police Court
to the Criminal Court.
