ryner's statement.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.--Tyner,
in his statement, says that he
never made an expenditure for the
Star route service without consult
ing the then Postmaster-General,
Gov. Jewell, and that later, when
in charge of the Department., he
refused to make large increase Of
the service. He required of Gen.
Brady monthly statements regard
ing the Star route service, and
never sanctioned any large expend-
lures. During the last month he
was Postmaster-Gener no Repub-
lican came to him, and after he
had ceased to be POstmaster-Gen
eral he was informed that during
that month Brady had largely ex-
pedited the service. He went at
once to Gen. Key, who had just as
sumed charge of the Department,
told him of it and advised him to
CANCEL all orders for increased
service. Tyner Gays further that
the Star route prosecutions were
frequently matters of consultation
between himself and President
Garfield; that he took his report of
the investigation made by himself
into the service and read 1t to Gen.
Garfield, who requested that he
might also show 1t to Gen. James,
which he did. This was soon after
Gen. Garfield became President.

He would establish the fact that
q sane man killed the President.
It was important that u saue man
who assassinated the President
should promptly Iexpiate that
crime. That WAS what the people
were waiting for; not that this
man should be proven insane"
The Court, in granting the post
pOnement to November 18th and
no longer, said: "If this were an
ordinary case Of voluntary arrange
ment of council to enter case, he
should say the case should not be
subordinated to other engagements;
but it was consideration not to be
disregarded that the order of the
court had taken counsel from the
performance of other engage
ments."
