THE RABCOCK TRIAL.

The prosecution in the trial of Bah
cock has presented all its evidence.
with the exception of that of one wit
ness, and the defense opens to-day. 1t
is charged by the Westliche Post, the
most influential and ablest German
newspaper published in the United
States, that the judges before which
the Private Secretary is being tried,
sympathise with the whisky ring in ODE
dience to instructions from the power
which appointed them at Washington.
1t has been shown in evidence by one
of the Government gaugers, that under
instructions from his superior officers,
he connived at frauds for which he was
rewarded by finding in his overcoat
pocket every Saturday evening an en-
velope containing from one to two
hundred dollars. Two barrel heads,
with the gauger's stamps on them, and
the stub-bo from which the stamps
were taken, were produced in Court.
On comparison it was shown in
each case that the stamp on
the barrel called tor nine times
more than the corresponding stub, and
q witness swore that those stamps had
been used fifty times. 1t was shown
that envelopes containing $500 bills
were placed in the postofice, but the
evidence that they were addressed to
Babcock was not admitted. Every
thing calculated to show that the at-
cussd was in league with the thieves.
that could be prevented from going to
the jury, was ruled out. The power
of the President has been used to save
Babcock, aud there is scarcely a doubt
of the disagreement of the jury, and
his acquittal ultimately, but as in the
Beecher scandal case, enough has been
shown to satisfy the majority OF people.

The New Railroad Tariff
CHICAGO, Feb. Is, 1876

CHICAGO, Feb. IS, 1876.
The new tariff adopted by the West
ern railroads Thursday, goes into effect
to-day. 1t is generally conceded that
the new rates are fair and equitable.
bat a feeling prevails that the cross
lines will not adhere to them. They
may not openly violate the rates, yet it
is feared that they will gain their point
by under bidding. Mr.. James Smith,
general freight agent of the Chicago
aud Alton Railroad, who PIE ided over
the meeting, has received kilograms
from Mr.. Vanderbilt, of the New York
Central; Mr.. Jewett, of the Erie; Mr..
Scott, of the Pennsylvania; and Mr..
King, of the Baltimore and Ohio, in
forming him that they were highly
pleased with the action taken last
Thursday, and that they would CO.
operate with the Chicago roads, and do
their best in helping to maintain the
new tariff.

Death of Reyerdy Johnson.

The Hon. Reverdy johnson died
at Annapolis, Thursday evening.
while dining with Gov. Carroll. He
went ont into the yard and, acct
dentally falling over a bank, frac.
tured his skull and lived but a short
time.
Mr.. Johnson was born at Annap.
oils, Md, May Il, 1906, and was
the son of the Hon. John johnson,
Chief Judge of the First Judicial
District of Maryland, afterwards
Chancellor of the State. He was
educated at St. Johns College of
Annapolis, and afterwards studied
law with his father. lie was adj.
mitted to the bar in 1915, and ac.
quired an extensive practice. Du-
ing the following eleven years he
reported the decisions of the Mary
land Court of Appeals, the greater
part of the well-known seven vol
umes of "Harris & johnson Re.
ports" having been compiled by him.
In 1917 he went to Baltimore and
soon after was appointed Deputy
Attorney General. In 1920 he was
appointed Chief Commissioner of
insolvent debtors, and from 1921 to
1925 he was State Senator. He
finally resigned the Senatorship,
and devoted himself to his practice.
and before 1915 he was at the head
of the Maryland Bar. He also oc
cupied high position at the bar of
the Supreme Court of the United
States. In 1916 he was elected Unit
ed States Senator, and in 1S49 Pres.
ldent Taylor appointed him Attor-
Dey General. On the death of the
President in 1850, he retired from of.
flee, and continued to practice al
most exclusively in the United
Stares Supreme Court. In 1861 he
was a member of the Peace Con.
,ress, and in 1862 was again elect. :
ri to the Senate. He was employ
'd by the Government as an umpire
Ii the adjustment of questions which
lad arisen between the United 7
states and foreign governments dur

,Olnted United States Minister to .
england as the successor of the n

THE emphatic statement of the
Trustees of Dartmouth College of
their belief in the honesty and ster-
ling integrity of the late Daniel
Blaisdell, Treasurer Of the College,
is gratifying indeed to the many
who knew and trusted him, and to
his personal friends and connections.
AT their last meeting the accounts,
which were numerous and compli-
Gated in their nature, were audited
by the Trustees, and they could dis
cover no evidence whatever Of dis
honesty. The feeble state of Mr..
Blaisdel's health the last few years
of his life, and the great amount Of
business devolving upon him, ex-
plain the confusion in the accounts
which led to the ugly rumors so free
ly circulated a few months ago, to
the effect that he was defaulter.
