The MOrey Matter.

NEW YORK, Nov l9.-The grand jury
held prolonged session to-day and con-
siderable interest was manifested as to
whether any action would be taken by
them in reference to persons implicated in
the Morey letter and Philip libel proceed
ings. However, thus far nothing has been
done by the grand inquest so far as can be
ascertained, by legal procedure. There are
no developments in the Philip libel proceed
ings, but there is reason to believe that the
subject engages serious attention of legal
authorities.
John I. Davenport again left town to-
day to get evidence about the Morey letter
Col. Bliss says that the chief efforts of the
prosecution are now directed to who wrote the
letter. The grand jury has adjourned until
Tuesday.
