THE kerr SCANDAL

4 In revenge for the mult!tudlGous expos
urcs of republican corruption, made by tex
democratic committees of congress, a Has
tardly scheme has been concocted TO esacker
the character of Speaker Kerr. 1tseems tha
as long ago as 1866, there were some vacan
cies to be filled in the regular army. Kerr
district was entitled to a lieutenant, and he
recommended a man for appointment but ht
failed to pass. Then II noted Washington
Lobbyist named Harvey introduced to Kerr q
man named Green, who had served with dis
tnction in the New York 18th infantry and
was backed by very strong papers, and Kerr
finally agreed 10 recommend HIM. Green
SAYS, to procure this recommendation, he had
paid Harvey $3.50, and now Harvey says he
paid the $3.50 to Kerr. Green says Harvey
never pretended to him that he intended TO
pay cent of the money to Kerr, and Kerr
denies vehemently that he ever saw or heard
of the money, or that he ever had any bust
ness, acquaintance or intercourse with Har-
ney of any sort. Harvey, on his cross.exam.
nation, contradicted himself so often and
made such pitiabe exhibition of himself,
as to create general Indignation, and to avoid
an indictment for perjury, fled from the city.
POOR BLAINE.
While Kerr will escape from the ordeal
without any smut, however, they have got af-
ter Blaine again, hot and heavy, and he seems
in y fair way to be fearfully oesmeared. One

appeared before the Clymer committee the

self, to show that the Tom Scott story about
those Arkansas bonds was all sham, and
tina, Blaine got the $4,000 from the L. p.
Railroad himself, through Scott. Blaine met
Mulligan and asked to see the letters. NJ. re.
let him see them on condition that
they should be at once returned. Blaine read
the letters in the presence of two or three 9TH
ers, and handed them back, bat afterwards,
meeting Mulligan alone, got the letters again
of him and kept them. Mulligan says be
tore gong to that extremity, Blaine begged
for the letters on his knees weeping, and
promised Mulligan foreign consulshp TO
give them up &c. At all events, Blaine has
the letters, but though he offers to let the
see them, there is no telling how
he may manipulate them beforehand. On
the whole it looks bad for Blaine-very much
like blunder, which to him just now is equal
to political suicide.
