Ills CASE VIRTUALLY ABANDONED BY HIS COUNSEL.

WAsHNGToN, July 12.-The impeachment trial OF
Gen. Belbn0 may be regarded as substantially
closed, and whether adjournment comes soon or late
it is pretty certain that the trial will be this
week and a verdict rendared. The case of the ex-
Secretary as left by his counsel Ia certainly des-
perate and would appear to point to only one result
conviction His counsel have made no defense
worth referring 70. They put in objections by the
score most of which were overruled, and when the
Managers declared they had closed the case on be-
half OF the prosecution, there was no indication OF
what the line OF defense would be. The action
of to-day shows that defense Will be made

WASHINGTON, July 12-Yaryan, formerly Chief of
Internal Revenue Special Agents, was again exam
med to-day by the Whisky Investigating Committee
The purpose of the inquiry the part of the Demo-
Gratis Of the Committee was to ascertain what the
relations of the President and Mr. Bristow were
during the Whisky Ring prosecutions. In order to
obtain this information the Committee asked Mr.
Yaryan what Mr.. Bristow at any time during the
year of the prosecutions may have said to him to
the statements OF the President. Mr. Yaryan
positively declined to answer this question. on
the ground that he did not consider that he was at
liberty to disclose confidential communications
made to him in an official capacity. The Committee
said he had no right to shield himself behind an
official privilege, and that they would give him
until tomorrow to determine whether or not he
would answer. Mr.. Yaryan was then asked TO state
what he understood to be the attitude of the Presi-
dent toward the prosecution, Mr.. Yaryan said that
he had no objection to this question. and answered
that the President was not favorable to the prosecu-
tions. He was then asked to give the grounds upon
which he arrived at this conclusion. This he also
declined to answer for the reason that they were
matters Of privilege.
