the band from the training ship, War
Spite, playing Yankee Doodle" The

clapping of hands and cheers. The same
honor was not conspiculously rem
dered to any other feature of the pro-
cession, except as the coaches of the new
and old Mayor passed by. As the pro-
cession passed the Office of the United
States Cable Company, four young ladies
waved American flags from the windows
as the banner of freedom went by.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1o.-In the crimina

decision in the star route cases, discussing
principally as TO the infamy of athe Grim,

that the crime was Infamous, and that ac

DENIAL.
As ssoon as the Judges decision had been
made. VIM. E. Cook, Asst Attorney Gen
eral, read statement which he had evl
IDENTIFY prepared in anticipation of the re-
suit. He denied the statement of Dis
trict Attorney CorkhiI, that the Attorney
General had been eonsulted by him in re-
gard to the adjournment OF the Grand Jury
and claimed the Information had only been
resorted to after the government had been
prevented from asking the Indictment until
after the statute which could have
begun to operate. On the part of the
prosecution he promised the accused would
not long be able to exuIt, and they would
be brought before the grand jury and be-
fore the petit jury, and they would have
all the opportunity they apparently de-
served, upon the proceedings against which
no technical objections could be raised.
After the adjournment of the court the ac-
cused were congratulated by their numer-
Gus friends.
Cook recently said the events succeeding
the Presidents fatal shot and the paralysis
in business and sorrow and fear that pre-
vailed in Washington and the whole coun-
ty, the work of preparing these cases could
not under the circumstances go forward,
and its neglect was unavoidable, humane
and justifiable. He related what steps he
had subsequently taken in the case and
said he had not received notice of q pro
posed recess of the Grand Jury directly or
indirectly and could not anticipate it.
